Skype has developed a problem

hello ;o) wonder if anyone can help me, i've been using skype for ages no problems but now when I sign in it won't 'connect' me - so everybody appears offline including myself. I've tried changing my status to 'available' but it won't let me, keeps flicking back to 'offline.'
Any ideas?

Under Utilities, there is a program there called Keychain Access. It should show you a list of all the passwords saved in your keychain. Find the one you want to delete, select it, and press the delete key.
This program also lets you see the actual password after you authenticate it. A very nice feature if you ever lose the password and need it for something else.
Otherwise, I think you can press cancel when the system asks for you keychain to unlock that specific password, and then it should prompt you for the password directly (make sure Save in Keychain is selected to over-write the old one). This way only works with certain types of passwords and applications, so I don't know if it will work in your case. So the best bet is probably Keychain Access.

Windows XP, SP3: 'Skype has encountered a problem and needs to close...'

I have seen quite a few people have this issue on here, but despite countless forum searches and multiple uninstalls/re-installs, I have not been able to fix my problem. I have not had any issues will Skype on my other computer. But I have recently gotten a WiFi adapter for the Windows XP in my room, and decided to download Skype on here as well. I have tried various downloads from Skype, earlier versions of Skype, and deleting .xml files as well as updating and restarting my computer. My install seems to go smoothly, but once I click on Skype or its shortcut icon, a blank Skype window opens up, quickly followed by an error message like displayed in the title. I have sent a few error reports, but that doesn't really move toward fixing my problem. If someone could help me reach a solution soon, that would be greatly appreciated. Here is some of my computer information below: System:Microsoft Windows XPProfessionalVersion 2002Service Pack 3 Computer:Intel(R)Pentium(R) 4 CPU 2.80 GHz2.79 GHz, 1.25 GB of RAM IE:Version 8.0.6001.18702 Error Info:AppName: skype.exeAppVer: 6.13.0.104ModName: mlang.dll

Problem Statement: Skype working fine. Then two days ago, I opened the skype program and this time it immediateley began an automatic update (nothing unusual,, has been doing this for years) Upon installation of the update (presumably for ver 7.6) I received a dialog box message "Skype update has encountered a problem and has to close"...... you know the drill...send error report to microsoft,etc.I then tried to reopen skype, but no skype window opened, Instead another error dialogue box "Skype has encountered a problem, yada,yada,yada send error report to microsoft"After consulting the support pages, did a COMPLETE uninstall/reinstall of ver 7.6 Evidently the install went fine (or did it ?) Skype is in my program files folder, the desktop icon is in place, but again, when I double click to open skype, the dialoge error message appears instead,, as before, "Skype has encounteed a problem...send erreor report to microsoft" Of course, using XP, SP 3 1.2 Ghz processor, 512 MB RAM, IE 8.0 which meets min requirements for skype. Considered other posts here suggesting to retro back to a previous version, but with auto-updates, how long will that last ? (can they be disabled ?)To sum up, 7. 6 auto update installation started the problem, and nothing I've tried seems to solve the problem. P.S. I installed a Netgear wireless USB adapter and corresponding driver between the date of the last successful Skype auto update, and the time the current issue occurred. Skype had worked fine with the wireless connection before the 7.6 update. But I wouldn't think there would be a connectivity problem, as Skype simply refuses to open. Or maybe I'm wrong. As of now I am clueless and skypeless.

'Skype has stopped working' problem

Hi,
For some unknown reason my Skype has started refusing to work.
As soon as load it up it logs me in then briefly shows me my contact list for a few seconds before a pop up appears saying:
'Skype has stopped working
Windows is checking for a solution to the problem...'
After another few seconds the pop up changes to saying
'Sype has stopped working
A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available.'
I had a look around on google and tried some suggestions but none have worked. I have uninstalled and reinstalled skype about 5 times so far. Twice using previous version of Skype but even they don't work.
Any help would be appreciated!
Currently running Windows 7

So the Microsoft support site tells me that mlang.dll errors occur when 'you have a damaged TrueType font or if the Mlang.dll file is not registered properly.' So I start to follow the instructions, but then it tells me to 'Place your Windows CD-ROM in your CD-ROM drive'.
This computer was given to me from a friend; I don't have the Windows CD. Is there any way I can fix my problem without it?
EDIT: FIXED!
After running Command Prompt, all of my windows started displaying strange symbols instead of text. I recently (for gaming purposes) had to change the language settings on my computer to Japanese, so in an attempt to fix the problem, I opened up my Control Panel, went to Regional and Language Options, and changed both my Regional Options and my Advanced settings to English, and restarted my computer. Skype now works fine! Thank you for your help!

Cannot open Skype - "has encountered a problem and...

Hi all,
I haven't used Skype in a few months, and just tried opening it - it crashed immediately. I completely uninstalled it, downloaded the latest version and installed that, and rebooted my pc. It first opened and said it was updating, then crashed. Since then, it cannot open at all - as soon as I clock on the desktop icon, it says it encountered and error and needs to close.
I am running Windows XP with Service pack 3 and all current updates, and downloaded the current directX. Not sure what could be causing the problem? I'm ready to try uninstalling again and installing a much older version, but don't know if that will work either...

Please, run the DirectX diagnostics tool.
Go to Windows Start and in the Run box type dxdiag.exe and press the OK button. This will start the DirectX diagnostics program. Run this diagnostics and save the results to a file. Please, attach this file to your post.
Be aware that you will have to zip this file before attaching it here.

Using LR 5.6, the program has developed sever problems. The latest is that the print module changes the picture from the chosen file to 12 others and prints all 12. I suspec that an uninstall and reinstall would fix the problem but I don't know how to do

Please tell me how do get a real person on customer support. This system is terrible.

What is your operating system?
Do you have a copy of Lr ( the installer ) to hand?
Is this a perpetual or a CC version of Lr?

LV 8.6 will Not Compile in LV 2010 - Labview 10.0 Development System Has Encountered a Problem and Needs to Close

I submitted this support request to NI on 8/12/2010.
When I compile my LV 8.6 app in LV2010 I get this error:
"LabVIEW 10.0 Development System has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience."
I was told to do a "Mass Compile" of my LV 8.6 app in LV2010...this failed too.
I was then told to go to each and every vi and "Mass Compile" individually...after about the 50th vi this got old quickly...and it still didn't compile. I then sent NI tech support "my code". The good news is my LV 8.6 app didn't compile with LV2010 @ NI.
My LV 8.6 app compiles and runs great in LV 8.6. I don't want to be left behind with the newer upgrades and I want to move to LV2010. I have lots of LV8.6 code to maintain and I really don't have the time to debug all of my apps.
I was told this will be looked @ in LV2010 SP1.
One note...back up your LV8.6 data before you move to LV2010. Once your LV8.6 code is compiled in LV2010 you will not be able to go back to LV8.6.
I restored all of my LV8.6 code and I'm back working with LV8.6.
It's a tough call, do I stay in LV8.6 and get left behind?
Do I bite the bullet and try to debug this mess in LV2010?
I was told the compiler is completely different in LV2010. That's great, but one reason I have NI Maintenance Agreement is to keep updated with the latest software. I can't afford to re-compile LV code every few years. Like most people, maintaining my Apps with customer's revisions, and modifications is enough work. I don't want more work!
I was told LV2010 SP1 would likely appear in May or June of 2011. I'd hate to break out my old Turbo Pascal apps again...but hey...they still work! My NI maintenance agreement is due this month too, I guess I'll pay NI one more year, and see if they come up with a solution. But if NI doesn't fix this LV8.6 compile in LV2010 problem...I don't see any value staying current with LV software.
I found another Bug with LV2010...you are going to love this one!
There is a new "LV Update Service". Perfect! I like updating my LV software when new patches are available. When I click "update" the update spins over and over "Checking for New Version". I have let it run ALL day with no results...just sits and spins over and over.
OK, I know give NI a break! Yes, LV2010 has a new compiler...and Yes, I will renew my NI maintenance agreement. I just want NI to know failing to compile just one LV8.6 app in LV2010 is not a good idea for customer relations.
Thanks,
Doug

It was working fine and I had no problems, and then one day I tried opening a window and it froze. When I tried quiting the program my whole window went black. The x to the close the window doesn't work. The only option I have in my tool bar is Firefox and nothing happens when I try to quit firefox. Every time I try to shut down my computer Firefox prevents it. I haven't updated Firefox yet, so it's an older program, but only by a month or two. What's going on and how do I fix it?

This is the first time it's ever happened. I downloaded the new operating system for Firefox but I can't install it until the Firefox currently running on my laptop quits, which it won't.

Has someone developed wrist problems with the macbook enter button? It is extremely hard and I have developed carpal tunnel and shoulder pain because of it.

Hello
I have a macbook and 1 month after purchasing it I developed tendonnitis....the option menu below the keybord is so hard to press that it hurts a lot.
My mother, who has used my mac as well has developed also wrist tendonnitis, that's why I am sure it is because of the mac.
Has anybody had this problem?

It's not becasue of the mac, it's probably becasuse both of you aren't typing correctly: http://longevity.about.com/od/longevitytools/a/typing_rsi.htm

Hello congratulations for the work you have been developing. The apple support has helped me greatly improve my Mac and better understand some applications. Recently my iPhoto has given me problems and I do not realize what is happening. When I double click a photo it does not appear ... or rather the background is black and only the zoom window appears. How to solve this? I've done a restoration of the library, but the problem remains. Thanks and good job.

There are several possible causes for the Black Screen issue
1. Permissions in the Library: Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Include the option to check and repair permissions.
2. Minor Database corruption: Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild.
3. A Damaged Photo: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and right click on it. From the resulting menu select 'Show File (or 'Show Original File' if that's available). (On iPhoto 11 this option is under the File -> Reveal in Finder.) Will the file open in Preview? If not then the file is damaged. Time to restore from your back up.
4. A corrupted iPhoto Cache: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto folder from HD/Users/Your Name/Library/ Caches...
5. A corrupted preference file: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
If none of these help:
As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?

My early 2011 MacBook Pro 15" non-glare display has developed a dark band at the edges of the screen approximately the same width as the aluminum surround. This wasn't present when the MBP was new. Am near an Apple Store, but anyone else had this problem

My early 2011 MacBook Pro 15" non-glare display has developed a dark band at the edges of the screen approximately the same width as the aluminum surround. This wasn't present when the MBP was new. I'm near an Apple Store and can take the laptop in, but has anyone else had this problem?

Thanks for your input. I didn't completely flesh out what I'm seeing visually. The resolution settings are all correct for my screen. The problem is if, say, looking at the gray startup screens or a completely white full-screen image, there is a perimeter of graying, almost as if the LEDs are somehow not as bright as the rest. It's also curious that the thickness of this phenomenon is almost exactly the same as the metal bezel around the display. I will be taking it to an Apple Store for a look, as I'm also having several minor hardware problems that need to be addressed and remedied.
