Skype shows busy after the first call for any inco...

Just for the sake of community I am posting this.  I have a new Lenovo Yoga 3 which I love.  Its running windows 8.1.  I have installed MS Office, BitDefender, Google Docs, Chrome, Opera, Dropbox and Skype.
Prior to the new version of Skype 7 I was on version 6.21.104 and it worked fine for a long time.  When I switched to the new Skype 7 after buying my Yoga 3 it broke.  Now I rely on Skype heavilly for my work.  With version 7 after I receive a call, I could no longer receive any further calls I just show a busy banner and hear the error tone when people try.  I deinstalled Skype with special tools like revouninstaller. I cleaned the registry of all Skype entries. Removed all files.  Did it several times.  On this machine Skype 7 has a serious bug.
MY ONLY Solution was to go to an older version of skype .. skype 6.021.104.  Works just fine now.
Microsoft -- get your act together.  You are famous for putting out buggy software.  Skype in particular has been very bad over time -- so pull it together or we will switch to something else and others will follow.  By the way I am a software developer

Ok, I've edited the VI you posted to reproduce my error (this time with 8.0). 
I added a "master stop" and "start log" button.  To demonstrate my problem:
1.  Run the VI
2.  Click "START LOGGING" - c:\test.txt is created
3.  Click "STOP" - c:\test.txt is closed
4.  Delete the file c:\test.txt with Windows shell or explorer
5.  Click "START LGGING" - a new c:\test.txt file should be created but instead an error is raised in the Write LabVIEW Measurement File function.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Dave

  • Problem with Write To Measurement File Express VI not writing to file if file was deleted after the first call (7.1)

    I'm using the Express Write to LabVIEW Measurement File in LV7.1.
    I have it set to "Save to one file"  and have tried both "Overwrite file" and "Using next available file name" for the "If a file already exists" conditions.
    The path/filename is passed into the function.
    It works fine the first time around.  If the file is deleted before the function is called again, an error occurs since LV is unable to find the file.
    I have had to stop and re-run my program in order to write to use the function again.
    Since I am able to delete the file I assume it was closed but it seems like LV expects it to be there, even though the function was supposed to create/open/close the file...  Is there any way to reset this without stopping/restarting the program?
    Since my application creates several files (only one using the Express VI) I am checking for the filenames and requiring that they be deleted (or a new filename be used) before acquiring data.  Everything has worked great, except for the Express VI.
    Thank you,
    David

  • Skype Windows client hangs for the first call - co...

    Hi,
    Skype on my Windows 8.1 (depending on its mood) hangs for the first call. It will keep ringing and ringing till it times out, during that time I am not able to hang up the call as well, the red hang up button doesnt work and we have to let the call go on till it drops on its own. Then on the second try it connects perfectly fine. This happens most of the times, there are only a few days where it connects on the first try otherwise its always the 2nd time. 
    Please let me know what could be the possible solution for this one?
    Thanks

  • CoCreateInstance returns 0x8007007e (Module could not be found) for the first call only at system startup on Windows 2008 Enterprise SP2

    Hi Guys,
    I'm experiencing a problem with CoCreateInstance, where it returns error 0x8007007e.
    The code is something like this:
    HRESULT hRes = S_OK;
    CComPtr<IMyInterface> spObj;
    if(FAILED(CoInitialize(NULL))) { /* quit */ }while(FAILED(hRes = spObj.CoCreateInstance(CLDIS_MyClass, NULL, CLSCTX_LOCAL_SERVER)))
    // LogFailure(hRes);
    Sleep(10);
    The problems occurs only on a single machine having Windows 2008 Enterprise SP2 installed (it works fine on other machines / OS versions). It happens only during the system startup (this is a Windows Service) and only for the first call of the CoCreateInstance.
    The second call always succeeds.
    The problem does not occurr when starting the service manually from Services.
    I did some investigation using Process Monitor and found that the HKCR\CLSID\[CLSID of MyClass]\LocalServer32!LocalServer32 registry value is accessed before the failure. The registry value exists - it is added by the Windows Installer during
    installation.
    If I remove the registry value then the CoCreateInstance always succeeds.
    I've been trying to lookup for some documentation on HKCR\CLSID\...\LocalServer32!LocalServer32 but haven't found anything useful other than it's a "Windows Installer Entrypoint". I assume that the Windows Installer does some integrity checks when
    calling CoCreateInstance for such class and this fails for some reason but currently I fail to find the reason.
    Can anyone help finding out what's the root cause of the 0x8007007e error here, please? Any help or tip is much appreciated.
    Many thanks!
    Marcin.

    The price is listed as $9.99 a month for the first year. After that the terms says "After the first 12 months, we  will automatically renew your contract based on the current price of the offering". Since the offering goes away after the end of this year what does that actually mean? Will we get switched to something that costs a lot more?

    Budget that it will go up in year two to $15 then in year three to $18 and year four to $20 and year five to $25.

    I have the same problem except almost every song I bought from Itunes has this problem. Not only that, but somehow some of the music, about $125 worth has been deleted form my 3 back up discs. This is only happening with my purchases and not any songs I uploaded from cd. How on earth did this happen, and how did it wipe clean 3 different back ups? I have found some of the music where it belongs, but like I said some of them are gone, gone, gone. I run three different back ups and they are on 24/7. Where is all of this music? I still have it on my ipod, but it will not load back into itunes the way purchases used to. Some of the music is purchased straight to my ipod touch, but shouldn't i be able to reload them into itunes? I spent 3 hours going 1 song at a time reloading them from their original location. But I cannot locate about $125 worth of music that I purchased from itunes. I have 6 macs in my family and preach the good news to all who will listen about hows macs are flawless. Now I have egg all over my face and have thrown away a nice sum of money on missing music. Please help!

  • SubmitStatusForResource for s_apid_sched_work gets ignored after the first time

    I am attempting to write a custom program to update Work on an assignment (not actual work).
    I use the statusing service with the usual UpdateStatus and SubmitStatusForResource with a change xml like below:
    <Changes>
      <Proj ID="11444f27-83a9-e411-bfc2-00155d387f03">
        <Assn ID="a480753f-e0b2-e411-819f-080027003803" ResID="741f3743-0a19-e411-b611-00155d603122">
          <PeriodChange PID="251658246" Start="2015-08-01T00:00:00" End="2015-08-31T23:59:59">4140000</PeriodChange>
        </Assn>
      </Proj>
    </Changes>
    PID above refers to: s_apid_sched_work
    This works fine for "actual work", which uses a different PID in XML above, but when I try to use it to update "work", it only successful the first time. Any subsequent calls to change the work for the same period or other periods gets
    ignored by project server. No queue message, no error thrown by the code. It just goes nowhere. I can see that setting "work" on an assignment via this method is supported according to the following article.
    https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/bb428845%28v=office.14%29.aspx
    Can someone offer any suggestions? I have already set my task tracking mode to "Free Form" in PWA settings, so nothing should be preventing this type of update.
    Is this a BUG? Please help.

    Not tried it Carlos - but if you are updating using statusing I would suspect that would not normally expect a change to 'work' - but to either actual work or remaining work - the kind of fields that you would update through the UI.  For making
    a change to work you could probably do this through other PSI methods apart from statusing - but obviously depends if you want the change to go through approval or not.  Let me know how it goes Carlos.  Agree that the documentation appears to say
    this should 'work' - but try remaining work instead.
    Best regards,
    Brian.

  • How to set up Airport Extreme with Charter ARRIS Modem TM902A for the first time for WIRELESS.

    How to set up Airport Extreme with Charter ARRIS Modem TM902A for the first time for WIRELESS.
    When Charter Tech goes to your site, have them connect the modem up, but do not connect the modem to your iMAC or MacBook Pro.  What you want to do is connect the Airport Extreme to the iMac or MacBook Pro first with the Ethernet Cable. You have to do this to configure via Airport Utility to set up the Base Station Name & Base Station Password.
    You will then create/configure a Wireless Network, create your Wireless Password that will be entered on each of your Devices, example, Apple Tv, your iPhone, etc., you want to allow access to your Wireless Network you are creating.
    Wireless Security will be -> WPA/WPA2 personal or just WPA2
    Enter the Wireless Password you want
    Verify the Wireless Password (enter it again)
    After it is created you will see it on the Airport Utility window with the name you created for it and to the left, will be a Dot (circle that will be yellow).
    Next you then want to unplug the power to the Airport Extreme, and then take the end of the Ethernet cable you unplugged from the iMac or Lap top MacBook Pro and connect it to the back of the Modem.
    Next unplug the power cord from the modem and wait about 5 minutes, then plug the power back into the Arris Modem and wait until all lights come back on the modem wait
    about 5 minutes, then plug the power cord back to the Airport Extreme and you will see it the light blinking yellow.  Wait about 5 to 10 minutes, during this time Restart you IMAC or MacBook Pro, and once it is back up click on the Airport Utility and you should see on the Airport Utility screen.
    For INTERNET to the left the light should be green and you should see the Airport Extreme also appear and the light to the left on the screen should also be green.  If they are, you then should be able to click on the Wireless Symbol on top of bar of the screen and click to select the Wireless Network Name you created.
    If you Do Not See the light (Icon) next to INTERNET turn Green, or if you see the Internet Light Green, but the Light (Icon) next to the Airport Extreme is yellow, unplug the power again to the modem and unplug the power again to the Airport extreme and wait about 15 minutes or up to 30 minutes. Then plug the power cord back to the modem wait till all the lights light up then, plug the power cord back into the Airport Extreme and Restart your iMAC or MacBook Pro.
    The Airport Extreme light should change from yellow to green. Open up the Airport Utility to see what the indicators are showing they should both be green.  Again select Wireless network you created under the Wireless Icon on the top right of the screen. Open Safari and see if you are able to Route to a web page or the apple site should appear.
    WHAT TO DO IF YOUR AIRPORT EXTREME WAS PREVIOUSLY SET UP FOR USE WITH ANOTHER CARRIERS ROUTER OR MODEM.
    NOTE:  If you already had your Airport Extreme connected for example, I previously had ATT Uverse and the Airport Extreme was connected to the Wireless Router Model 3801HGV, I disabled the Uverse Wireless and used the Airport Extreme for the Wireless signal in bridge mode, as the Airport extreme Signal is much stronger than the Uverse router, and I was able to obtain a Wireless signal with the Airport Extreme way much better with no signal loss which was very very frustrating with the Uverse router.
    Anyhow if you had it hooked up like this, now that you will be using it with the Charter ARRIS Modem TM902A, you will need to reset the Airport Extreme to clear out the old data it has in memory, with the previous set up otherwise it will not work. Trust me I spent 6 hours trying to make it work reading all Apple Support Community questions and answers relating to this type issue/problem others have been having trying to get their set up working. I tried all the tips, and I finally decided just to see if by chance I would be able to connect with someone with Charter Tech support who might be familiar with Apple to be able to assist me and by luck I did.  He told me why it was not working and was all due the previous configuration with the ATT Uverse router was still in memory with the Airport Extreme. Finally it was 10:30 PM when I decided to call Charter Tech Support and I had been working on this since 3:00 pm pacific. I did not call them earlier as all the post I read said they never received any good help from Charter. After calling them I finished up by 11:00 PM and was able to finally connect Apple Tv, iMac, iPhones and Macbook Pro. We love our Apple Product and Happy all is connected with the new
    Internet Provider Charter. I must say the speed is way way much better than it ever was with AT&T Uverse. 
    THIS IS WHAT YOU WILL NEED TO DO:
    First you will need to unplug the Airport Extreme, then by taking the tip of a pen or paper clip end you need to push the reset button on the back of the Airport Extreme and hold it
    down and at the same time plug the power cord back into the Airport Extreme count to 5 or 10 then release the reset button. Then once he light in front of the Airport Extreme stops blinking you need to plug the Ethernet cable from the Airport Extreme to your iMAC or Macbook Pro, and restart which ever one you have, then open the Airport Utility once it is back up.  If you see airport extreme pop up with the old network name or it shows and yellow triangle click on the Airport Extreme ICON it will not let you configure it but will ask if you want to get rid of it or remove and just do it.  Then Again restart your iMAC or MacBook Pro, open up Airport Utility again, and on the top left you should see under “Other Airport Base Stations” the MAC ID for the Airport Extreme.
    You will then create/configure a Wireless Network, create your Wireless Password that will be entered on each of your Devices, example, Apple TV, your iPhone, etc., you want to allow access to your Wireless Network you are creating.
    Wireless Security will be -> WPA/WPA2 personal or just WPA2
    Enter the Wireless Password you want
    Verify the Wireless Password (enter it again)
    After it is created you will see it on the Airport Utility window with the name you created for it and to the left, will be a Dot (circle that will be yellow).
    Next you then want to unplug the power to the Airport Extreme, and then take the end of the Ethernet cable you unplugged from the iMac or Lap top MacBook Pro and connect it to the back of the Modem.
    Next unplug the power cord from the modem and wait about 5 minutes, then plug the power back into the Arris Modem and wait until all lights come back on the modem wait
    about 5 minutes, then plug the power cord back to the Airport Extreme and you will see it the light blinking yellow.  Wait about 5 to 10 minutes, during this time Restart you IMAC or MacBook Pro, and once it is back up click on the Airport Utility and you should see on the Airport Utility screen.
    For INTERNET to the left the light should be green and you should see the Airport Extreme also appear and the light to the left on the screen should also be green.  If they are, you then should be able to click on the Wireless Symbol on top of bar of the screen and click to select the Wireless Network Name you created.
    If you Do Not See the light (Icon) next to INTERNET turn Green, or if you see the Internet Light Green, but the Light (Icon) next to the Airport Extreme is yellow, unplug the power again to the modem and unplug the power again to the Airport extreme and wait about 15 minutes or up to 30 minutes. Then plug the power cord back to the modem wait till all the lights light up then, plug the power cord back into the Airport Extreme and Restart your iMAC or MacBook Pro.

    I just got a Charter Modem. Model TM822. While I was moving, my Airport Extreme was still at my old place.
    I have a Linksys WRT320N I used for the initial Charter setup.
    I can get my Airport to work here, but the Internet light on the Modem flashes Yellow.
    Hasn't caused any issues so far but one thing I did notice.
    On the Linksys there were 3 DNS servers listed.
    The Airport Extreme only lists 2 and i don't see where I could add another, only change whats already there.
    I tried everything above, but light on modem still flashes yellow.
    I have the technicians cell phone. Told me "that shouldn't be" and gave the same advice listed above.
    I'll break down and call Charter one day, see if it's on their end. NSA tracking may need a reset LMAO.
