Skype Properties "Issue"

Have posted this recently but still looking for an answer
In Skype Properties - Security - Group or User Names there are the following
System
Account Unknown S-1-5-21 .........
Steve (User)
Administrator(User)
Interactive
Should the User "Account Unknown" be there as I do not see it on my laptop or old Desktop. Is this a problem or is it maybe because I have a newer version on my new Desktop. Sorry I haven't given you a snapshot. Would welcome an answer Thanks

I recently purchased Skype Premium and I go on Skype calls every single day with 3-6 people. We tend to fall asleep on Skype late at night, and we repeatedly will get displeased with what happens over the night. Our video will turn off, and then I will get a message letting me know that I have used the "4 hour limit". When we turn our video back on, I later get a message saying that I have used the "10 hour limit". Right now, our video will not go back on at all because apparently we have used our "100 hour limit for the month". I am very displeased due to this issue. I purchased Skype Premium so that my friends and I were able to group call 24/7. I thought Skype Premium came with unlimited minutes so I am very, very confused. When I try to purchase it again, it tells me I have already purchased it, so what do I do? Please help.
It's because of the Fair Usage Policy of Skype but I don't know that it's just 100 hours per month. : /

OC4J "classpath+properties" issue

Hi,
Is any fix available for the OC4J classpath+properties issue?
It can't find *.properties files even if it is in the classpath.
It's not convenient to jar properties files and edit the manifest.mf file in orion.jar every time you want to add new file
Thanks

The classpath for the Oc4j is entirely different than what is normal classpath. If you start your oc4j with -jar option the system classpath will never get effected. If you want your properties files to be recognized keep under the possible classpaths. Oc4j takes every thing from lib directory so you can keep there.
If you have an application you can add <library path=""/> tags to your application.xml and keep the properties files in that directory.
If you have webapplication usually web-inf\lib added in classpath.

Libpulse/Skype & Chromium issues

I had a problem with skype where skype crashed shortly after login. I checked the wiki and sure enough there was an answer to solving that problem.
As the wiki suggests, i did:
# cd /usr/lib
# chmod ugo-r libpulse.so.0.16.*
# chmod ugo-r libpulse-simple.so.0.0.4
And skype ran afterwards, however after doing that i cannot get my speakers and microphone to work (skype detects microphones as speakers and speakers as microphones) i had formerly been able to solve this issue by configuring gstreamer-properties, but this time doing so has no effect.
Also, skype seems to occasionally freeze on file transfers.
And now when i try to run chromium i get the following error:
# chromium
/usr/lib/chromium/chromium: error while loading shared libraries: libpulse.so.0: cannot open shared object file: Permission Denied
How do i fix skype's sound device bug after changing to libpulse-simple?
How do i fix chromium after fixing skype?
How do i make the gstreamer settings stick after reboot?
Note: Even if the issue is with libpulse, i have not installed (and ofc do not use) pulseaudio. To tell the truth i don't see the purpose of pulseaudio it can't even replace alsa....
Edit:
The Real Problem seems to be: That gstreamer & libpulse get confused when another application is using a specific (not "ALSA's Default") speaker or microphone(device).

There's no "confusion" nor does libpulse have any part in it (nor does gstreamer, neither skype nor chromium use it afaik), if you set an ALSA device directly that device will be locked for the application first requesting it, alas only teamspeak will be able to use it. If you set to default probably dmix is employed that's why you get sound in more apps that way. Same applies to input devices so if you set your usb it will be locked by TS, leaving skype with the internal one.
Now you could try and find a proper configuration for your asound.conf (I can't help you with that, but there are some proficient ALSAers on this board who may be able to help you, the skype/alsa wiki may be a good place to start, you may have to load snd_usb_audio as default) or use pulseaudio, which was written for this exact purpose and usecase you describe here (just to show you the purpose of it ), which allows you to freely redirect any and all streams over all of your sounddevices as you please
Thanks for clarifying that, i had no idea it worked that way and i've been using linux for a while now. Why don't tutorials and installation guides mention stuff like this? D:
I'd rather not install pulseaudio if i see no reason to use it. I guess for now just shutting down teamspeak if i want to VoIP on skype is a good enough solution for me personally, setting snd_usb_audio to the default device would be a dumb move for me since these are headphones, i actually don't know the name of my device, I set snd_hda_intel @ index=2 and usb at =1, i don't know what 0 is called, but the problem is that if i set snd_hda_intel at index 0 for setting it as the default card, it defaults to the S/PDIF(HDMI plug) channel which acts as a separate card(ATI R6xx HDMI) for some reason (the one i use is IDT 92HD81B1X5).
But if anyone else has this problem i guess maybe they'll have to install pulseaudio-alsa if they want to solve it i'm satisfied for now, but thanks for the help anyways R00KIE, it's good to know that that's the next step towards solving this if i ever see a reason to do so

Skype credit issues

Hi,
I have an issue with my skype credit.
Last week I did the payment to recharge my Skype credit.
My Skype credit history says it was 'DELIVERED' however I didn't see any recharge in my account.
I already checked the following link:
https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA37/why-is-my-account-balance-not-updated
However is not helping me that much. For this I want to get in touch via email with the customer service to look after this issue in order to provide specific personal information.
Looking forward to hear from you.

Business use of Skype - security issues from a net...

Going through this forum, accounts seemed to be hacked fairly frequently. I read somewhere that Obama had his Skype acct hacked. Being a network administrator at an ad agency with high-profile clients, this could be a serious issue, if important information was leaked to the public before press releases. Seems like this is usually a result of user error, whether its phishing schemes or clicking on random links sent by strangers.
Is there any type of moderating feature that could be used (for network administrators), essentially restricting the contact list to approved contacts?

Hello,
The onus is really on the user to set his/her privacy options as they wish at > Tools > Options > Privacy Settings.
It's not possible for an administrator to prevent an individual user from adding a contact.

I recommend that you always run the latest Skype version: Windows & Mac

Skype Connection Issues

After the most recent updates, I've discovered an infuriating issue with Skype.
I am in two group chats, for weekly gaming with friends. In each of these, we've had little issue connecting and chatting with each other. However, after the most recent updates, we've noticed a problem. Some of us can join the call, and the rest of us only see the black bar at the top telling us a call exists. When we try to join, it immediately disconnects us and shows the call bar once more. We cannot join, no matter what, but can still chat with the rest of the group via PM. For some reason, this only seems to happen when USA players host the call. When our two friends in Australia host, there is no trouble at all.
What makes this even more infuriating is the fact that it happens sporadically. There seems to be no pattern to it.
YES, all of us have the most recent version. YES, all of us have stable internet. And YES, all of us have computers that can handle Skype. We've been able to handle it before the latest update.
I expect an answer from Skype as to why they're system is dying after this update.

Okay. By checking the inbound and outbound rules in my firewall I found some rules associated with skype that was blocking it from connecting, by getting rid of it my skype is now connecting normally and working perfectly.
Thank you.

Adobe Print Properties Issue

I am having an issue with the print properties being extremely delayed when hitting the print icon on Adobe Reader XI. I reverted to Adobe X to see if that would fix the issue, but it did not. I am running adobe reader XI on several (32) different Terminal servers that are on a Windows Server 2008 R2 operating system. I also have a server running Adobe Pro that is used by the people that have been assigned licensing for it. Both are displaying the same issue. Sometimes the print properties can take as long as 4 minutes to appear after hitting the printer icon. Once the print property is open, the file prints normally. The printers are all networked and running on a print server running the same OS as the terminal servers. I have unmapped the the printers and remapped them as well while troubleshooting.
Thanks for any help you can give me.

UV Properties Issue

Hey,
I was having an issue with my UV maps, so I went to Photoshop and decided to change it over there. My problems started here.
I edited the UV properties and started doing the texture job on this little model:
After finishing the very first part above, I decided to try it out on other applications (C4D or Unity).
So, I exported it as .DAE and .OBJ just in case.
For my surprise, when I exported the files, the UV mapping did not change on the exported object, making the textures go completely wrong on other applications, except on Photoshop it self.
How can I fix that and export the new UV Mapping with the file?
Using Photoshop CC 2014.
Thanks!

PS does not change the actual UV parametrization on the meshes, this is merely an internal thing. Simply the wrong tool for this work.

Skype integration Issue

Hi All,
I have done Lync 2013 integration with Skype I followed below mentioned links.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn440170.aspx
http://technet.microsoft.com/library/jj552445.aspx
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-au/library/dn440175.aspx
after integrating with Lync I am not able to see the presence of the Skype contacts and also not able to communicate with them.
I have public record configured for federation.
any one faced similar kind of issues.
Anish Sebastian

For this issue, Check the following:
Run Lync server remote connectivity tests using
https://www.testocsconnectivity.com/.
Federation requires DNS SRV records. Host file entry on edge server will not work.
Hence make sure that SRV record for _sipfederationtls._tcp.yourdomain.com exists.
It should be pointing to your access edge FQDN (e.g. sip.yourdomain.com)
On port 5061
Run Logging tool on the Lync Edge server and check if SUBSCRIBE requests are being sent out and responses received. Logging tool might show some of the error messages as shown above.
Check firewall rules. A fully functional federation requires the below ports to be opened.
5061 (in/out) – for SIP traffic (includes presence updates).
443 (in) – Conference access for federated users.
50K range (out) – for Media.
3478 (out) – to determine the version of federated partners’ edge server and also for edge to edge media traffic
Check if 5061 (basic / minimum port that is required to be opened for federation) is opened at both ends.
From your edge server / external workstation, telnet <federated partner access edge fqdn> 5061.
From an external workstation, telnet <your access edge fqdn> 5061.
Check if the SIP address that you are entering for your federated contact is correct. Though most organisations keep their email address as SIP user ID, I have encountered been in quite a few situations where they are different (Please don’t ask me why
one would do that).
Check event logs on your Edge server.
If there are certificate errors as shown above, install the root certificate / intermediate certificate of your federated partners certificate provider on your edge server.

Syndication Map properties Issues!!!!!!!!!

Hi Guru's,
I am having some issue while doing settings for "SYNDICATING ALL RECORDS TO ONE XML FILE".
I had followed instruction as per SYndication guide pg 140,where it says:-
To syndicate all records to a single XML file
1. On the Map Properties tab, click in the Value cell of the XML File
Output property and select Single File (All Records) from the drop-down
list.
2. Click in the Value cell of the Repeating Record Node property and
select the repeating XML element which contains the record structure
But the issue is when i do the above still field "Repeatable record Name/Node" is greyed out and doesnot allow me to select IDOC segment.
So is this the issue with XML schema file OR is there something i am doing wrong?
Please let me know if anyone has got these issues..
Regards
Vikrant M Kelkar.

Hi Preethi,
Thanks for your reply.
Issue is, we had a XSD to which we added/extended some more fields..As a result root node of XSD was changed and the whole map now needs to be redone.
Old XSD was/is still allowing us to select Segment in Reapaetable node in Map Properties, but new XSD doesnot allow .
How is this possible that for same MDM version system allows to choose Repeatable node segment selection(in Map Properties tab) for one XSd and stops doing it for other?
Also if we dont select the repeatble node how will you map qualified tables?
Regards
Vikrant M Kelkar

Manage Skype Groups issue

I have several skype groups. I make daily calls to the groups. Some days people are on vacation - or don't need to be in the group call. There is not a consistent way to remove a person from a group. Sometimes in the Right-Click menu I get the option "Remove contact from Group" - which works just the way I want. But often that option does not appear. Instead I only get "Remove person from contacts" - which is NOT what I want to do.
Why is this inconsistent? How can I always get the option to simply remove a person from the group.
This has nothing to do with Chat - this is strictly for voice of video calls.

Configure farm admin as User profile service admin then check but it wont give issue i guess.
Clear all the job if possible restart the queue service then check. If you are suing any custom code check the code.
Also check whether server time in sync with each other or not.

Skype App issues on Windows 8.1 Preview

I'm not sure if this a Skype issue or a Windows 8.1 issue, but I found out that if I'm logged in to Skype on my Windows Phone 8 with my Microsoft account, the Skype App on Windows 8.1 doesn't work at all. No notifications, no incoming messages, sent messages won't go through. Nothing. First I thought it was a problem with the Skype App on Windows 8.1, so I uninstalled it and reinstalled it several times to no avail. I also tried restarting my laptop and my phone several times, until I remembered that the day before I had logged in to Skype on my WP with my MS Account (I was logged in with my Skype account before), so I switched accounts on the phone and logged in with my Skype account only and voila, the Skype App on Windows 8.1 started working again perfectly. I would really like to login on both my laptop and my phone with my MS account at the same time, but unfortunately it seems impossible at this moment.

I have the same issue. Just installed Windows 8.1 Pro (x64) from my Technet subscription. I installed Skype from the Store, but it just does not work (it shows blues screen and the application exits to a Start menu). Reinstallation does not help. Possible workaround I found is to use a copied Skype folder installed on my different Windows 7 PC (ver 6.6.66.106) which runs fine on W8.1 pro without installation.

Lync2010-Skype Integration Issue

Hi,
I am able to add Skype (MSA) in Lync and Skype user gets a notification. Once added, the Lync-Skype integration (presence, IM and calls) seems to be working fine.
However, if a Skype user try to search Lync URI, Skype returns no results found. It means, only Lync user can initiate a request to add Skype user into contact list.
Any suggestion, why Skype is not able to find Lync URIs?
Cheers,
H.

Hi,
As mentioned before, PIC provisioning process is completed successfully. I can add
Skype user, we have communication -
The issue is only Skpye users are not able to find Lync user - Yes, I am searching via SIP address.
Cheers,
H.
