Skype Home Not Available

Hello, all!
So, for a while I'd log onto skype and get the message:
Skype - No Connection
Skype Home unavailableSkype Home is unavailable at the moment. Check back later to see your news and alerts.
It's easy to start a conversation on Skype:
Choose a contact and start talking
Call a phone or mobile from the dial pad, or send an SMS.
Now, at first I thought it might be that I wasn't signed into skype, but I checked and ensured that I was in fact registered as online, able to send/receive messages but not able to view skype home. Then when I heard about the new update, I uninstalled my current version and installed Skype 6.12.
Same issue- able to send/receive messages, but no skype home.
I'm running Windows Vista, 64-bit operating system. Internet explorer may be my issue, as it doesn't actually seem to work at all beyond google, but I don't know how to fix that problem at all.
Help?

The issue is with your Internet Explorer. Skype Home page is created using IE and this link:
https://apps.skype.com/home/
What is the version of Internet Explorer installed on your computer?
In Internet Explorer go to Help -> About Internet Explorer.

Skype has not published a native version of its messaging application for Nokia Series 40 devices. Therefore, it is not possible as of this moment.

Why skype is not available for windows phone 7.8 e...

Hi Team,
Why skype is not available for windows phone 7.8, earlier it was there in wp 7.8 market place... Please bring it back for WP 7.8

Yet more shoddy treatment of those who bought in to win phone 7. Makes me feel foolish for recommending windows phone to friends and colleagues. "We want everyone to experience the best Skype has to offer" and your way of doing this is to take it away!
My next phone is unlikely to be a win phone 8, and I'll look at alternatives to skype.

Skype Home not working

Hi...I have a laptop and I have had problems with skype home in the past, but not it will not work at all. It keep spinning.
I am using windows 7 professional. Last nite I used piriform defraggler instead of the one built into my computer and now skype home won't work. I don't know if that is the problem or not.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Faith

Try to reset all Skype settings.
Quit Skype or use Windows Task Manager to kill any Skype.exe process. Go to Windows Start and in the Search/Run box type %appdata% and then press Enter or click the OK button. The Windows File Explorer will pop up. There locate a folder named “Skype”. Rename this folder to something different, e.g. Skype_old. Restart Skype.
N.B. If needed, you will still be able to re-establish your call and chat history. All data is still saved in the Skype_old folder.

Skype often not available since baught by Microsof...

Is it only me, or since Microsoft has teken over Skype , service has been flaky ?
Very often I need to use it, and I get "Skype Home unavalable"
Making it impossible to call anyone!
There is updates after updates ... Like it seem Microsoft is unable to make this work??
Security updates are fine, but crashing the system is no better then security problems.
I have been using skype since the beginning and this service is getting more expensive, and provides less service...
Will Microsoft ever get their act together?

You can't in the cr*ppy CS4 interface. It is very annoying.
I made custom keyboard shortcuts.
John, I would be interested in learning how you made the "Custom" keyboard shortcuts for this. I still hate that they deleted those right click options. Sometimes I go back to CS3 when I know I am going to be working with something in which I know I will need those features.
It is like some of the changes they have made to the forums. The forums are hard to navigate and finding the "quote" was really frustrating. KISS is still the best policy!

Skype home page

Hi There
When I try to sign in to Skype I get the message that Skype home page isn't available. I have uninstalled and reinstalled Skype twice now but still see the same messaage. This has been going on for a week. At the bottom right-hand corner of my computer there is a grey icon with arrows spinning. I have windows xp and internet explorer 8. Can you help me reconnect to Skype? Thanks

I have the same problems regarding using Skype to call internationally to Lima Peru using a windows 7 desktop with the latest version of skype.
I have been receiving this notice "skype home not available" check later" . I have tried to
remove the program and then download it again . I am using the latest version of Skype but to no avail. I have credit in the account and I want to use the service and I should be able to use it like before it was purchased by Microsoft. With the modifications done lately a lot of the previous options have been deleted. For example there is no option to dial the number by yourself (soft phone) among other previous options that have been deleted without any reason.
If the number is mistaken there is no option to EDIT the contact either.
Skype was simple ,fun to use, Not anymore.
If the moderator is reading this thread please do something about it.

Press Add --> Select the host ebisdb2.oneshield.com and press continue

in the page that appear you must entry all the configuration information of database:
ORACLE_HOME directory

SID
Check that the dbsnmp user in your database is unlock and press the TEST button to verify the connection work fine.
After this many windows appear of configuration process, and you will put the sys password and host credentials.

Okay!
I'm newbie here, but it doesn't matter. I dont want to do here anything else, just write off my opinion about the Microsoft's "new" Skype, and I hope they will read...
This is a cropped image - of course hungarian, because I'm hungarian, but I think many of us could see this as well. How this is possible? "The Skype can not start because the system is not available" *** What kind of system? The Skype was on a P2P system, where is impossible that the system is not available! This is why the skype was much better than the Microsoft's messenger. Then they bought it, and make it wrong...
I found a solution for this problem, this can happen if my client is not updated. But IT IS!
How does it works? Can we use the **bleep** Skype how we would like to use? Or this time we need to find an other application (like Viber), and using that while they not buying that as well, just because that is better?

Home Not Updating After Skype Update

After trying to update my Skype to the latest version (7.0.85.102), my Skype Home page stops being able to update. It doesn't tell me it's unavailable, it just doesn't update it. It also doesn't show anyone's profile pictures there, which is one way for me to know it's not working.
I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling with no help. Tried looking up previous solutions to this issue and found the way to test it is by going to https://apps.skype.com/home in Internet Explorer and that just shows a blue loading circle in the middle of the screen and never fully loads. From my understanding, Skype being able to access this page from IE is how it gets its updates now so the fact that IE can't load it means it won't work.
The next logical step then would be to try compatibility tests with my IE browser to see if it'll load the page then, however after trying that out there's still no results. After that, the next step would be to make sure IE is updated. Now, my system is running Windows 8 Pro and was given out by my university with our laptops using a Volume Liscense, meaning I can't update to Windows 8.1 and so I can't update to IE11. As far as I can tell, my IE10 is as it should be (version: 10.0.9200.17148 ), but yet here I am still facing this issue.
So far, the only way I've been able to resolve this issue is reverting back to Skype 6.21. I haven't tried other versions, that's just the version I was using before I updated and going back to it causes no issues with the Skype Home. I'd really like to be able to update Skype though, especially with the new look it has, so if there's any way to fix this that someone knows of it'd be very helpful to me and everyone else having this issue or will have this issue.
Thanks!

Try this:
Reset all Internet Explorer settings:

Home view major bug: Home view navigation not available in Common File Dialog Box (i.e. Java, Adobe Photoshop etc)

Homeview major bug: Homeview navigation not available in Common File Dialog Box (i.e. Java, Adobe Photoshop etc)
Hi
All though provisioning somewhat more flexsible and pointing forward ... things are starting to go wrong here ... i.e. pointing to a very potential lack of success introducing users to the new Home namespace/concept ...
0) Situation if you do not fix 1 + 2:
You can not release the Homeview feature like this - without fixing 1 + 2.
If not 1 +2 is fixed you might just as well leave the release of the Homeview feature out of the roadmap for Windows 10. I.e. not ready for use ... or promotion in the UI
1) How come Homeview has not been included - like other namespaces i.e. Libraries into the Common File Dialog Box?
How can such a trivial thing to do be missed? I.e. like forgetting to include Homeview into Explorer (would be absurd).
If not included into the Places Bar of the Common File Dialog Box ... Home View will be unusable - because some very visible applications like Java, Photoshop will not be able to navigate that space easily at all.
2) Finally, please fix obscure situation in the UI namespace in Explorer
Please fix obscures like having Home view, Favorites and Libraries (side-by-side complexity and confusion obscuring usability) - all similar concepts but on a different evolutionary step. I.e. have Favorites and Libraries
hidden - and add i.e. view control like to small buttons whatever to unhide/show the legacy concepts.
In any case - Home view already seem to migrate/move links from Favorites to the Homeview container.
Additionally, Home view should migrate links from Libraries to Home view - and provide similar and better functionality.
Thus going the evolutionary way from Libraries > Favorites > Home - with the later concept of Home providing links to the cloud. Even better, sync relation ships could then later (extended features for Home) be set up among the pins - i.e. concerning
cloud/network syncing.
The UI should always reflect the 1 essentional concept - and not under the hood technologies or different evolutionary stages of the same basic/essential concept (technology/implementation free - abstract: "Home with pining of user data space"
- was previously favorites or libraries (thus obsoleted)). Now the name for that concept is Home. Have it include the technology that replaces Libraries too - i.e. categorization/nesting ... and some whitespace inbetween the nesting (alike some whitespace
already there inbetween the namespaces in the Explorer UI ... provides easy "modular" reading)

Hi,
Please clarify the following:
* "X: is a network drive, but it's actually a network drive on my machine." - Is "X" a mapped drive to one of your shared folder on network?
* What is the project directory structure with respect to WEB-INF/web.xml? Are you able to see the three pages (from web & pages folder) in NitroX Editor?
* Does the modified content appear in "Design view" of index.jsp upon restarting NitroX?
Ex:
- modify one of the pages in "web" folder > save the file (alert appears)
- restart NitroX, does index.jsp display the modified content of included page?
* If possible please send the test case project which exhibits the behavior to [email protected]
Thanks,
