Skype Problem: Contacts gone

Hello, my name is Mindaugas and I am from lithuania.
Recently I have downloaded an older version of skype and for some reason lost all of my skype contacts. I have no backup files, and I can't really add all of the contacts again - I don't have such a memory to remember more than 200 contacts.
If you had the same problem and managed to fix it, please reply asap.

Wanted to use Skype on android tablet. Signed in with my linked Microsoft account, but my contacts weren't there. Same thing happened on the desktop client, where I stupidly signed out of Skype and then signed in again via my Hotmail account. Then decided to log in with Skype name instead.
However, turns out I've forgotten my Skype password and resetting it is impossible as the reset link keeps sending me to reset my Microsoft password. But I know my Microsoft password, and even if I reset that, signing in via this option doesn't show my contacts.
How do I get my linked Skype contacts to show up or how do I reset my Skype password (and only my Skype password, not the Microsoft one)?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
yes pls, helpme Sir

Try going to file-devices-restore from backup, if you dont have a backup then you may redownload past purchases (movies, music, apps, etc) from their respective stores by visiting "purchased" section.

I just downloaded Itunes on my phone and it needed to update a os1. I have new icons now but it erased all my contacts. Is that normal? Are all my contacts gone for good?

I just bought a square and in order to use it I needed to download Itunes with OS1. I did it but now I have no contacts, is that normal? Are all my contacts gone for good?

There is no iTunes download for any iOS device.

Skype video button gone?

Why is my skype video button gone?

See this thread:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5306216?tstart=0
FIX:
1. You need Time Machine
2. Go to folder /Library/CoreMediaIO/Plug-Ins/DAL/
3. Copy AppleCamera.plugin to good place (usb memory stick is the best place).
4. Go to Time machine in date that skype work fine.
5. Change AppleCamera.plugin with file from Time Machine
6. Restart system, Now skype need to work with camera.
If that doesnt pass,
Suggest looking here, much success has been found:

HELP!!! Contacts gone and backup assistant isnt restoring them?

I lost my contacts 2 months ago on my iphone 4s. The numbers were saved in my text messages though, so I went by those, and re entered the names to match, etc. That saved half of them (115). Then, it happened again last week. so, same thing, and this time, downloaded the Verizon BackUp Assitant app, and synced as I added the names back in. Today, same thing happened, contacts gone, and nothing in my backUp assistant...PLEASE HELP! I have my own business, so contacts are crucial to my every move!!

Verizon backup assistant stinks. My 4s keeps dumping my contacts and backup assistant dumped them all too. You stink

Reinstallation for IOS skype. problems with groups and contacts

I was having a problem with Skype on my Iphone; new messages wouldn't load, and if they did it was around 10 minutes after they sent them. So I uninstalled the app and then reinstalled it. As soon as I logged into my account I realized most of my contacts didn't have a profile picture, nor did it have our conversations. It also got rid of all my skype groups; I still got notifications for those groups, but if I clicked on them it would bring me to a page saying that it's an empty group. Also if I get on skype on my laptop everything is fine, I still have my groups, my contacts all have pictures and our conversations are still there. I tried to reinstall it on my phone again, but this time all my groups were still gone, but different contacts wern't complete. Because I still had the contacts I tried to send a message on of my contacts that didn't have a profile picture and although it said it sent, I never got a reply. So I got on my laptop and asked if he got it, and he said he didn't. Is anyone else haing this problem? If so do you know how to fix it? Thank you

Ok I just talked to support via chat and apparently this is a known iPhone mobile App issue. This is exactly what he said to me: "I was informed that this issue already have a ticket to our engineers and they are already working on this one. This has something to do with the latest version of Skype for tablets and mobiles. We may release another version of Skype app so once an update is avaialble, update the app on your phone ASAP." Hope this ease some frustration.

Problem contacting skype

I have received an auto renewal from skype which I want to cancel. I have tried contacting them via website and the links on the renewal email plus links here and elsewhere on the web. This has been for the last two months both on my Ipad and PC. Tried now about 40 times over this period and every time I get the same message ' Looks like our website is currently having a few problems. Please try again later'
I live on the Isle of Man which is a British Island but not actualy part of the UK
Thanks Laurie

Help!? skype problem! one bounce in dock then gone! ?

i just installed skype onto mac os x version 10.3.9.... (the computer is my mom's emac)
the computer had problems, so i had to re-instal the os-- start from scratch-- skype was working fine before, but now it just gives one bounce in the dock, then vanishes. weird seeing as now the system is 'virgin', there shouldn't be probs. i've tried looking in the firewall area in system prefs, but no luck- i don't even see skype listed.
why is this happening??
i've got to have skype! how do i get it back!
i know this has been a problem with people running leopard, but that's not me!

Skype requires QuickTime 7 to run, which isn't included with Mac OS X 10.3 or earlier. QuickTime 7 can be downloaded for free.

Contacts and Skype, problems.

When I try to add a contact in Mac Mail, the Skype application suddenly starts instead. Does anyone know how to prevent or change this?
