"skype has stopped working, windows checking for a...

Ok, it is two weeks now.  I have been using skype for years with minimal problems.  However, now every time I turn on the computer, it tries to connect and gives me the above message.  I have followed all the tips (all the very complicated in my view steps to name it something old, reinstall, uninstall old, make sure the latest is installed.....) and I continued to get the same message.  Once, it seemed to actually open but the next time I turned on the computer, the same problem.
Any actual help for this?
I have windows 7 and the LATEST updated skype (just installed AGAIN) today.

    I have already copied my photographs to the a library manager but when I tried to reuse iphoto and import the photos back into iphoto, it would not let me.
    You can't "copy" your photos to the "library manager", there is just no way to any such thing.
    Option 1
    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. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

  • '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

  • Itunes has stopped working Windows is checking for a solution ....

    After I just upgrade my itunes and restart the computer I click on itunes and get a message itunes has stopped working Windows is checking for a solution to the problem….’ This is then followed by another message ‘a problem caused the programme to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available.’
    I try to open in "safe mode" and getting the same message.
    I am trying to figure out what to do about my son's itouch he has lost it/stolen at school. Feeling worried and would like to be able to get in my itunes account now.

    This is the simplest fix, if you're still having a problem with it.  I had the same problem, am running Windows 8.1.  Just be sure to reboot after you copy the dll (dynamic link library) file indicated.
    Copy QTMovieWin.dll from:  C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
    to: C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes
    Let me know if you have a problem.

  • "Skype has stopped working" Error Message Windows 8.1 Skype 7.6

    Hi, I just now installed the desktop version, I was previously using the other Windows 8 version, not sure what it's called but that doesn't matter. I was trying to call my friend and it said there was a problem with my mic. Well I bought a new mic and came home and it said there was a problem with my mic. I uninstalled it and installed the desktop version, thinking it would work better, but the desktop version tells me that it cannot detect my soundcard and to reboot my laptop. Upon starting up at the welcome screen, I continued to log in, and wait for my programs to load up. I opened skype, it closes without showing up, three more times I do this before running as admin. It tries to load and then gives me the crash report "Skype has stopped working" and says windows will let me know when they find a fix.

  • "Skype has stopped working" upon launch (7.3) Windows 7

    I have been using Skype for more than a year with no issues but today when I launched Skype it came up with a message saying that "Skype has stopped working" and asked me to send information to Microsoft. Skype will not open at all - this message appears a few seconds after opening it. I have tried opening using admin and reinstalling but Skype still refuses to open.

  • What is this : "Firefox has stopped working Window is chcking for a solution to the program"

    I am Using Mozila 3.6.3 , I am so happy with this version. But Many times it show error
    "Firefox has stopped working
    Window is checking for a solution to the program"
    and then it show
    ""Firefox 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."
    | Close Program |"
    How i solved out it

    Your Firefox 3.6 is apparently crashing or hanging.
    Firefox 3.6 is no longer supported and is not secure, so you are increasing the risks to your computer and personal data. It is probably a good time to upgrade to Firefox 14 from http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
    Do not use any option from Windows or firefox that offers to remove personal data (because that destroys bookmarks, passwords and settings). If you have problems once you install a recent version you may neeed to look at
