Skype Instant Sign-out

Recently, I've been having an issue where as soon as I sign into Skype it automatically signs me back out again. This issue has been consistent for several days on my KDE desktop. I was able to stay signed in for around 5 minutes after I moved my ~/.Skype directory. I have tried opening Skype from a terminal and there are no error messages provided. I also created the directory ~/.Skype/Logs and tried looking at the log file from a crashed session, but all this gave me was a binary blob which I couldn't read.
I thought that this issue was isolated to my KDE desktop, but it has now spread to my laptop which runs i3. Is anyone else experiencing this?

Skype automatically signing out on iPad when not i...

Please help me! When I am not using my iPad for a while my Skype appears to shut down (sign out?) automatically. Other users still see me as online, but nothing happens when they call me, but when I go onto Skype I see that I missed a call, even though it didn't ring. Also, when I open the Skype app, it comes up with the "signing in" screen- I don't want it to sign out, just run in the background, and then let me know when someone is ringing! I have recently updated to IOS8 and this seems to be when the problem started. Help please!

Exactly the same problem and this workd for me.

Can't sign in into skype after sign out

hi! i need help this past two days suddenly my skype went to log.out and im trying to sign in, it says that my skype account is already sign in on this computer, in order to sign in i have to sign out my skype first.. how???? i try to uninstall and install again..still same..
"WE CANT OPEN SKYPE, YOU ARE ALREADY SIGN IN ON THIS COMPUTER. PLEASE SIGN oUT AND TRY TO SIGN IN AGAIN" how can i do that if i cant acces on my skype??? please help me.. im using windos 8..

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.
Next go to Windows Start and in the Search/Run box type %temp%\skype and then press Enter or click the OK button. Delete the DbTemp folder.
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.

Can't sign in into skype after signing out of emai...

I am writing this for a friend who is running Windows7, and has the latest version of Skype.
After he has checked his email, whether it is hotmail (outlook) or bigpond, he is unable to sign into Skype. The circle in the centre of Skype just keeps spinning and will not sign in.
If he tries to sign into Skype before using his email clients he is able to sign in straight away.
Also if he shuts down his computer after reading email and then restarts, he can sign in with no problem.
Has anyone any idea why this is happening?
Thank you in advance.

I was even on customer support chat and gave her permission to remotely access my comp. She worked on it for over an hour and I still get stuck on the blue signing in screen. Y'all seriously have some work to do with this app. A few of my friends are having the same issues also, so now I know for a fact it is not something to do with my comp, antivirus or firewall settengs. I have unistalled and reinstalled Skype 6 times already. Now I know why I used Yahoo messenger for so long. I never had any issues with it.
Reboot your computer in Safe Mode with Networking and then try to start Skype.

Why do I get Skype messages, when I am signed out?

I am signed into Skype on my Windows laptop.
Skype is signed out and closed on my iPhone. Same on my iPad.
But on my iPhone I am still getting IM messages from Skype when someone sends me a message - do I need to disable something in the iPhone??

Does Skype on Android ever sign out?

I have been having a multitude of problems with Skype on both Android and Windows, I'll stick with Android here. System Specs:Samsung Galaxy SIII (Sprint)Model SPH-L710Stock ROMAndroid Version 4.1.2 Oftentimes I will receive messages marked as having been sent 'now' when in fact they were sent at a previous time and I already saw them on my Windows client. It's a minor issue, but slightly frustrating when trying to keep a conversation in order. Signing out... Where to start? Does Skype ever sign out properly on an Android handset? I will very often receive notifications about missed messages when I know for a fact that I had signed out of Skype. Here is a screenshot showing my notification bar when I am signed into Skype: The Skype icon is visible, and filled in. Obviously I am signed in. Ok, no problems here. Now here is a screenshot of of a message notification. You might notice something is missing:
That's right. I am now receiving message notifications while I am not signed into Skype on my phone. This is really annoying, and mildy creepy. There really is no rhyme or reason I can discern as to when or why I receive message notifications while being 'signed out'. I get them after signing out. I get them before signing in. Hell, sometimes I get them as soon as I reboot my phone and I am definitely not signed in then. Another problem I have been having, but I don't have any screenshot for yet, is that Skype will tell me that either I or the person I am talking to has added other people to conversation who we've previously had group conversations with. Neither I or the other party has actually done this though, and the person that is added doesn't seem to be receiving any of the messages. Very weird buggy stuff for what is supposed to be a mature application. This really sucks for me because I've been trying like mad to find a decent unified messaging program since I use Android on the go, Windows at home and work, and my girlfriend has an iPhone. Skype seemed like a great idea, I even plunked down for the premium subscription for the extra goodies (which I feel are a ripoff since most of them were free at some point, but that's another story for another day) - Apparently it isn't as great an idea as I thought it was. C'mon Microsoft. It's 2013. Instant messenger capabilities have been around for well over a decade now. What's the issue? Why is it so hard to find an application that will allow me to chat across different popular OSs without all sorts of funky issues? That I pay for this just makes it all the more frustrating. Anyone else having problems like these? Any remedies?

Hi Alura, Father Christmas rewards little girls with patience and persistence, qualities he greatly admires - Merry (foot-washing) Christmas I had a problem similar to yours with Skype 4.5. Reverting to this more reliable older Skype 4.0.0.22082 version, resolved the problem for many of us with smart-phones. Others, usually with tablets, reported that Skype 3.2.0.6673, better suited their needs. If you have a smart-phone, tap the link of the former Skype, or the latter if you have a tablet. If your first choice does not meet your needs, the other would be worth trying. Before tapping the downloaded apk file to install the selected Skype, uninstall the current Skype, disable the Play Store “Auto-update apps” option, and enable the Android Settings (from) “Unknown sources” option. Once installed, disable the “Unknown sources” option. Be sure to try any future Skype release, indicated by a change of release date on the Google Play Store Skype “UPDATE” page. If the new Skype is unsatisfactory, revert to the older Skype using the saved apk file. You can choose an even earlier Skype version if you feel that this would be beneficial. To date. I have not experienced any security problems with any of the above web links. Please be sure to post another reply to let me know how you go with the installation. I should be able to help you if you encounter difficulties. If you have not already done so, you should create a good Android issue report here to help Skype improve future versions. I am sure that a Private Message to Claudius, letting him know where your report is, would be a nice surprise, and really make his day Regards, BGW.514

How do i sign out of skype if the account is signe...

Basically, i have my skype signed in on someone elses phone and i was just wondering if i change my password will that then sign them out or will they stay signed on? If they stay signed on is there anything i can do to make them sign out?

Hi, Ben.Lunn, and welcome to the Community,
Changing your account password will force a sign-off, however you can also type these two chat commands in any open instant message chat:
/showplaces
Lists other instances where this Skype name is currently signed in.
/remotelogout
Sign out all other instances except the current one. This will also stop push notifications on all other instances.
Regards,
Elaine

"You have been signed out of Skype, please sign in...

This message, "You have been signed out of Skype, please sign into an Xbox account to use Skype." has been coming up whenever I've been trying to sign into Skype on the Xbox One...Not sure what happened but all it's giving me is the "Sign in" button, but all it does is just loop me back to the same message... Please help.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

This took me forever to work out but what you need to do is merge your xbox live account and skype account. You can't do it on the Xbox because of the loop so you have to do it on your PC or Laptop.

If you have windows 8 just follow these directions:

I hope this works for all of you and merges your accounts properly because it was doing my head in. It worked for me and then I could just sign straight into my Skype on Xbox One.

hi,
Mac, iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch ?
Do they appear eventually ?
The iMessages are "pushed" to the devices which means there can be small delays between the server recognising the device went Off Line and coming back.

Skype status stays [Online] after sign out

Hi
Recently my skype has left online when I sign out. Over night my skype was logged in.
I changed my password then went offline and asked a friend. They confirmed I was still logged in.
Any ideas?

I'm having the same issue. I use Skype for Windows and Skype for Android (on two devices). Even when I sign out on these devices and I turn them off and I also sign out and turn off my computer, all my friends confirms that I remain Online. It is not like for few minutes, I remain Online for all the time, I just never go offline. I tried to change my password like four times, I even try to reinstall Skype on all my devices and nothing changed. I'm starting to be a little scared. Could anyone help my please?

How sign out of Skype on iPad (IOS 8)?

I cannot figure out how to sign out of Skype (or sign in with a different account) on my iPad. The old profile page had the option, but the updated Skype (there is no indication of any version number on the iPad, or none I can find) doesn't seem to have it.
Please don't tell me I have to to shut down and reboot !

Go to Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Tap your Old Apple ID > Tap Sign out.
