Skype message notification

Hi There,
Just want to discuss about skype message notification alert. I was getting this message notification when I get any messages and it will stay on task bar unless I read the message. But now I am getting the notification but it disappers from the task bar and due to that I am unable to view new messages so I have to open skype each time to check for new messages. I had installed few updates and current version showing is 7.4.0.102.
May I know whats the issue? I cant see any relevant settings regarding the same on skype. Can anyone help on this ?
Immediate response in highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Raj

There should be a setting in the options to enable the notification sound?

Cannot disable message notification sound

This is a little weirder than it sounds. I have unchecked the incomming message sounds. Its always worked just fine. But as of today when one of my contacts messages me I get the incomming sound notification. Its unchecked. I even tried disabling sounds in skype. It still kept doing it. Whats stranger is this is the only contact that makes the sound notification. All the others are still silent. I tried enabling the incomming sound with a custom sound file that was just silent. Even this didnt work. I have updated skype to the latest version and I'm running win7. Any help would be great. Thanks.

I have the same problem, double notifications sounds because skype is running on desktop and in browser. I am sorry but why is this unlinking of accounts in every thread a accepted solution. This not a solution. I am fed up with the answer of unlinking your microsoft account from your skype account as a solution. I was forced into linking my accounts to keep my msn-messenger contacts , so UNLINKING IS NOT A SOLUTION for many people, why on earth do i want 2 accounts for the same company their services. The other solution of signing out/going invisible is also not a solution. Since if you make yourself invisble , you turn invisble everywhere. If you sign out , well you sign out of your mail client. See ,I could live with the enteir integration of skype in outlook but come on guys. This is going on like 3 years now and still you are clueless that a browser is fine for outlook but for IM it just lacks fine tuning. The new skype integration looks at least a lot better but :a) again no settings for the skype part in outlook, at least a mute button would be nice. If I am working /relaxing /listening music , the only way to get skype in outlook.com to shut up is mute browser , mute OS , sign out or unlink accounts ,....?c)You call it beta software , with no option to opt out of beta unless unlinking account ? <- this one really baffles me

Re: Skype message notification doesn't show

I am having the same missing IM baloon pop-up problem, as is a co-worker (Win7 Ent SP1, Skype v6.5.0.158 ) I have checked Tools->Options->Notifications->Starts an IM with meI have checked Conversation->Notiofication settings->Notify meI have verified that Skype is set to "Show icons and notification" in the task bar settingsI have even changed the above settings away and changed them back to see if it would force a changeI have deleted the %appdata%\Skype and allowed Skype to recreate itI have clicked on both the "Show example" link in the settings, and they both cause a test pop-up baloon to appearAll I am looking for, like I believe the person who started this thread, is for a baloon to pop up from the status bar when a new IM comes in. Currently all I see is the icon in the toolbar subtely change to show the number of waiting messages, but this is not enough to get my attention (and I don't always have sound on to hear the pop-up alert). Can somebody please verify that this is indeed expected behavior, and offer any futher troubleshooting tips?

Microsoft doesn't nothing to do with this issue. The PopUp message comes from (it is created by) Skype itself. Same way others software do on that Taskbar area.They are independent from Operative System.
However, windows do the same as well, of course, and we might confuse this, thinking Microsoft do it all. It is really really really really important to fix this, it is very annoying to click everytime a number of message appear down there when you are busy in something else, and might be someone chatting to you and you don't need to answer right away, and you just want to see what they are txting you.Many times your contacts want to txt you about something and they go long run doing 1 way conversation and they don't need an answer, sending several lines about the same conversacion. Then, IF you want to reply them, ok... you maximize Skype and answer them back. It should be working as old messengers software always did. Very useful. If not, I only use when i want to videochat w/someone.

Message notification sounds

My Xperia Z1 will not change the mms message tone, the standard notification will change, however I have Set messages set with a different sound. No matter what sound I choose it will not change. I am using the standard stock messaging app, does anyone know what is causing this?

Here are some suggestions

Text messaging notifications won't sound after update

So I updated today to what I am assuming is the 4.3. And ever since that, my text message notification sounds won't play. Yes, my phone's sound is on. When I receive a text, the phone will vibrate but not play my notification tone.
My other tones work fine (email and phone calls).
Any suggestions for what to do?

My volumes were not turned down. Verified that. I ended up calling VZ and they got Samsung on the line and they said that this is a known bug with the latest update. Along with possibly breaking WiFi, horrible battery life, or even preventing the phone from powering on. What they said I needed to do was a factory reset on the phone. Once I did that, everything worked again. Samsung also said to not install any updates until they push 4.4 Kit Kat.

I just purchased a soundboard, how do I set the sounds as a text message notification?

I just purchased an iPhone 4 off of Ebay and I am having a difficult time trying to figure out how to set soundboard sounds to my text message notification. It does not show under my sounds and when I hold down the specific sound it does not give me an option to set it as a notification. Unfortunately, I just found out the tech support etc are expired so I cannot ask Apple for help without paying for it. Does anyone know how to set a soundboard sound to a text message notification sound?

How do I stop incoming message notifications interrupting a phone call

I appreciate this issue has been posted many times in the past, but it appears Apple have not addressed it with subsequent OS updates:
When I'm speaking to someone on the phone an incoming message notification sound interrupts the conversation and I can't hear them. I can't find a way of turning off sounds whilst in a call?
Please don't suggest I: turn on airplane mode, turn on do not disturb, put the phone on mute etc. etc, these are modern times and these solutions should not even be considered.
Please help if you can.

I COMPLETELY get where you are coming from. I don't understand why there is not a function in settings that is an on/off switch labelled, "mute when phone is in call". seems pretty basic. I can't remember how many times i have had to ask someone repeat what they just said due to getting a notification for either another text message, or an email, or any number of audible notifications I have gotten while in a call with someone. I then have to reach up and manually switch my iphone to mute, which I notoriously forget to switch back on after the call is over. I feel you man, totally.

Iphone 6 notification sounds

My message notification sounds randomly stop working. Sometimes it vibrates and doesn't play a sound and sometimes it does nothing or both. When I go in to notification sounds I can press a sound for preview and it vibrates and doesn't always play the sound. Again, randomly. I often miss texts because of this. Any suggestions or anyone else have this problem?

This happened to me once too. Try resetting your phone by pressing and holding both the Home button and Sleep/wake button for 10 seconds or so until the Apple logo appears.

[SOLVED] Skype notification sound breaks sound in totem

The problem is as follows:
When skype plays his notification sound, sound volume in totem is going down to zero. When skype notification sound is finished, totem volume is back. I can distinctly see this process in the last tab of gnome sound settings.
I use the following softwate:
# pacman -Qqs alsa
alsa-lib
alsa-plugins
alsa-utils
gnome-alsamixer
lib32-alsa-lib
lib32-alsa-plugins
pulseaudio-alsa
# pacman -Qqs gstreamer

gstreamer0.10-ugly-plugins
perl-gstreamer
totem
# pacman -Qqs pulse
lib32-libpulse
libao
libcanberra-pulse
libpulse
pulseaudio
pulseaudio-alsa
I have no extra configurations for any of this packages. All packages are up to date.
The problem is only between skype and totem. Skype doesnt conflict with gmusicbrowser, flash players.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I have actually the same problem, but apparently pulseaudio has changed since the last solution above because my file /etc/pulse/default.pa is not the same.
There is no longer module-cork-music-on-phone module, and load-module module-role-cork is already commented out.
Does someone have the same issue? Is there another solution?
Thanks in advance!

How can I disable the notification sound for remaining credit messages

My operator sends me a message after every call and text which tells me what remains of my monthly allowances. This is very useful and I don't want to turn it off. I've just got myself a Z10 and the only thing that annoys me about it is that I have not yet found out how to disable the notification sound for this type of message. The device is stock with the latest firmware and no apps.
I can change the notification for normal text messages in the settings, but there is no obvious entry to change for these messages. Does anyone know how to do it?

If the message comes in the (bell) notifications it can only be switched OFF globally.
If it is a text message, you can create a contact with the number, then Setting - Notifications - Contacts - Customise - Phone Calls, Email Messages, Text Messages, Other Messaging

Skype Messages Out Of Order.

This has for some reason only started within the past few hours, and i have never experienced this issue in the past, for some reason while sending messages they are out of order and look something like this:
Them: Message #8
Them message #10
Me: Message #1
Them: Message #6 appears here.
Them: Message #2
Them: Message #4 appears here.
Me: Message #3
Me: Message #5
Me: Message #7
Me: Message #9
Makes it impossible to have a conversation as i have to scan over dozens of messages to try to find a new one that has all of a sudden appeared, i have tried searching for solutions and the only one i found was "Sync time and date" i have updated my time and date to make sure but they were never out of sync to begin with.
Cheers, Nick.

This is a well known bug on Skype network affecting mainly users of the latest Skype versions on Windows and iOS systems.

Skype is aware about this problem and is working on a solution. See e.g. this:
http://community.skype.com/t5/Windows-Phone/Time-wrong/m-p/1278306#M2012
Meanwhile you may try to revert to the previous Skype 5.10.0.116 version.
http://download.skype.com/msi/SkypeSetup_5.10.0.116.msi
You don’t even need to run this installer. Using the procedure described here,
http://community.skype.com/t5/Windows/How-to-update-Skype-without-using-any-Skype-installer/m-p/7073...
extract the Skype.exe file from the SkypeSetup_5.10.0.116.msi file and replace your currently installed Skype.exe with this older Skype.exe file. You will be now running the Skype 5.10.0.116 version.

Can't hear chat notification sounds

I'm having a related issue. I just upgraded and it didn't resolve it. When I log in, I'm getting the log-in sound, but I'm not longer getting chat notification sounds at all. I went through the preferences and made sure there were all correct.
Even in the Prefererences drop down, when I hit Details and select "Sign-In" and change the sound, it plays a test sound. But when I "New Messages Received In Current Conversation" and select a new sound, nothing is played.
Please help!

Hi,
I am having the same problem. I also use MacBook Pro Retina, 15-inch, Late 2013, running on OS X 10.9.5. (latest)
I am running the latest update I have available to me on skype as well: 6.19.
And no, my notifications are not set at Do Not Disturb. Everything in this section is left unchecked.
All my sound preferences in System Preferences are where they should be. Selected Sound Output Device, Alert Volume all the way up, everything checked.
In the notification center, it is also checked off to play sound notifications for Skype.
In terms of Skype, all that is supposed to be checked off is. In Notifiation overview: Play sounds related to calls, play sounds related to messages are on while stop notifications why recording or sharing screens is NOT checked (just in case).
In Details, First Message of Conversation & New Message in Recent Conversation: Play sound, bounce icon & display visual notification is on.
Also, New Message in Current Conversation has play sound & bounce icon on.
For a while now, I hear the ring tone when someone is calling, but no sound in any type of message, first message, new message in recent convo, etc. Nothing. Not when I'm full screen with the video, not one when I'm toggled onto Skype, and not when skype is in the background.
Please help! It is driving me nuts! I'm pretty sure its a glitch, but I am hoping it can be fixed!
Also, on a side note, someone mentioned this is the thread, and it is very true: people who are off line appear to be online ALL the time. It does not log them off like it should, and when you call it just never connects.

Notification sounds interrupts normal audio playba...

So, this is really starting to piss me off. Whenever i have speakers or headphones connected to my laptops 3.5mm audio output, and i get a skype notification sound, skype kicks the non-skype audio away from my headphones onto my laptop speakers, while the notification sound plays through the headphones. it is really pissing off my roomate because he hears my music everytime a notification sounds. I have messed with the sound settings trying to fix this but i have had no luck. so if anyone has an exact way of adjusting the sound settings, it would be mch appreciated. Oh skype is the only program that does this. thanks.

Can you try to open your Volume Mixer section to see if you have controls such as the one below, The section with the Skype icon is the volume control for Skype notifications, and you can mute it separately.

When the message arrives, the message tone sound that many times. How this problem can be solved? I installed the new version, but the problem is not resolved, the future is to be taken into account in the new version of this?

I'm not sure I understand the question, is the message tone going more then once?
Turn off repeat message alert here:
settings > notifications > messages > repeat alert > never
Some people have found this does not stop the repeat miessage tone,
if you are one of those then I suggest you contact Apple:
http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html
They may not respond, but hopefully will fix in uodate if enough people complain.
