Skype stuck on "signing in..."

I've been having a problem that seems to be a common issue on the forums for many Skype users.  My Skype just stays stuck on the blue "Signing in..." screen whenever I try to log on, with the white circle just continuously spinning.  For me the issue started about a month to a month and a half ago. I am running Windows Vista with the most updated version of Skype.   My Internet Explorer is 9.0.8112.16540 Can anyone help?

1)  You can try the following:1. Open Run command (pressWin+R buttons) and in the window copy/paste:%localAppData%\Skype\Apps\and hit Enter. Location will be opened in File Explorer.2. Delete everything from that folder.3. Quit and restart Skype. Skype login window should be displayed correctly allowing you to enter your Skype credentials PLUS 2) Try now this: Go to Windows Start -> All Programs -> Accessories -> Right click on Command Prompt, select 'Run as administrator'. The Command Prompt window should show: C:\Windows\System32> If this is not the case, then in the Command Prompt type:  cd c:\windows\system32 and press Enter. Type this and then press Enter: regsvr32  jscript.dll Next type this and press Enter: regsvr32  jscript9.dll After each Enter you should receive a message saying that DllRegisterServer in XXX.dll succeeded. Reboot your computer. Make now the test showing if your Internet Explorer can execute JavaScript. Open in your Internet Explorer (no other browser but only IE) this page: http://www.mistered.us/test/alert.shtml Click on the “Simply Click This Button” button and watch the response. I DID THIS 2 THINGS, this helped me. 
TRY IT ! ! !  100% WORKED FOR ME.

  • Skype stuck on signing in until I restart PC

    Alright, many people have made threads like this before but I usually have a somewhat different(?) problem than others.
    When I boot up my computer I turn on Skype, and I put in my info and what not to sign in, but it usually has a 50/50 chance of signing in. It either gets stuck at a log in screen and I have to reboot for it to work, or It works and I am good for the day. If someone could actively help me with this issue then that would be greatly appreciated.
    I hope you all have a great day!

    Please,  run the DirectX diagnostics tool. Go to Windows Start  and in the Run box type dxdiag.exe and press the OK button. This will start the DirectX diagnostics program. Run this diagnostics and save the results to a file. Please, attach this file to your post. Be aware that you will have to zip this file before attaching it here.

  • Skype stuck on "signing in..." loading screen

    3 days ago i was using skype normally and the next morning i went to use Skype and it wouldn't go past the logging in page. I've reset my password, reset IE settings and also tried completely reinstalling it, no matter what i do it's just not getting past logging in. I can't even get back to the login screen where i put my details in. I don't have McAfee installed either... i really am at my wits end

    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.

    Yes, It works.
    Solution:
    1. Exit and uninstall skype completely.
    2. Remove all other settings and data from "C:\Users\admin\AppData\Roaming\Skype\"
    3. Restart Computer
    4. Download latest version of skype and install it again.
    There was some issue with existing settings saved in AppData Skype directory. When deleted, it reset everything and new installtion setup it again with default settings.
    Thank you!

  • Skype Stuck on Logging In

    Yesterday my Skype worked just fine, today when I tried logging in it was stuck at signing in. I reinstalled, cleared all files, and disabled my Norton and everything else. This did not fix the issue. It worked fine yesterday and has for months. What is causing this issue? Please help!
    I am using Windows 8.1

    Try to switch Norton Firewall off.

  • I can't log onto facetime on my mac.  My apple ID and password is correct and it is working on my ipad/iphone.  My facetime preferences is grayed out and I keep having to turn facetime on.  My screen gets stuck on signing in or verifying.

    I have used facetime on my mac recently and have not had this problem until today.  Facetime seems to have logged out on all of my devices but after putting my password in on my iphone/ipad it is back to normal however my Macbook will not allow me to log in.  I also noticed that facetime preferences is grayed and I keep trying to turn facetime on and that is graying out as well.  I put in my email and password and I get stuck on "signing in".  Or I get past that and I verify my email and password and I get stuck on "verifying" only to get booted back to the sign in page.  My OS is up to date, my wifi is on and working and I have no firewall on my home network.  I cannot figure out how to fix this.  I have tried some previous message troubleshooting such as updating the DNS entry to add 8.8.8.8 and that did not work.  I have tried to toggle facetime on and restart but that did not work.  I can't delete and reinstall facetime as it is connected to the OS and will not allow you to do that.

    I have the same problem. Unfortunately, the troubleshooting link you added has the first step listed as "Verify that FaceTime is enabled in FaceTime > Preferences" which we (the original poster and I) can't do as our Preferences are greyed out. We can't click on them to verify anything.
    In FaceTime itself it's verified my apple id (also double checked via the site) and then it says the email is "verified" but then it freezes and after a minute or so it says "Could not verify the email address. Please check your network connection and try again."
    After checking the network connection, it still doesn't work. It's rather frustrating as it all worked fine until about a week or two ago.
    Any help would be appreciated.

  • Why is skype no longer signing in automatically?

    Hi,
    On my computer (Win XP SP3), I have skype (5.3.0.120) set to sign in automatically, but not start automatically. Normally, when I click on skype in the start menu, it automatically signs in and goes straight to the main window with all my contacts and everything. Today, when I clicked on skype in the start menu, it gave me a log in screen. It remembers my user name but it is asking me to put in my password. (The 'sign me in when skype starts' box is still checked.) Why would it suddenly ask for the password? I am not aware of any updates this morning (and past updates have not resulted in this behavior). Is this a known issue with skype today, or is it possible my computer has been compromised? Is it safe to put in my password to log in to skype?
    Thank you!

    The problem, that Skype does not start when you start windows/logon, seems to be with version 5.5, both the Standard and business versions.
    The simplest workaround is to disable the "Skype starts when I start Windows" setting and then add a shortcut to Skype.exe to the "Startup" folder.
    This implies no changes of any setting of Internet Explorer or otherwise and can easily be reversed by removing (deleting) the shortcut.

  • Reinstall Mavericks but stuck on sign in to the app store !!

    HI, yesterday i try to update Yosemite but it was not success
    Then i try to reinstall Mavericks and everything is fine until i sign in an apple account .
    i stuck on "signing in to the app store" and cant do anything
    what should i do?
    Thanks

    Hi .
    In order to reinstall Mavericks, you have to use OS X Recovery. Not re downoad Mavericks from the App Store.
    Startup your Mac while holding down the Command + R keys.
    From there you should be able to access the built in utilities to reinsstall OS X.
    Read prior to reinstalling >  About OS X Recovery
    Make sure to backup all your important data prior to reinstalling OS X.

  • Skype doesn't sign in

    Hey,
    I am using skype on my laptop , tablet and android.
    My skype refuses to sign in "incorrect password or skype name" , I resested the password and still it doesn't sign in on any of my devices. 
    I can sign in to the skype website, with the same username and password. But when I use it on the application itself it doesn't work.
    In addition,  if I try to use my microsoft account, the skype recognizes the account but doesn't sign in.
    1. Anyone has a solution?
    2. How can I contact the support of Skype ( Their actual support email)?! I don't want to look for the answers in the forum, I have money on my account.
    Thanks!

    This exactly describes my problem, which went from bad (i.e., intermittent) to worse (i.e., never working) after the OS 10.10.3 Supplemental Update.  I have tried many times.  But after login, Skype just spins and hanges until I force-quit it.  Except once, when it actually crashed.
    Upgrading from 7.6 to 7.7 hasn't helped.  Deleting the Application Support/Skype folder hasn't helped.  Deleting the relevant Preferences file hasn't helped.

  • SOLVED - Weather App Doesn't Update Live Tile, Xbox (Games, Music, Video) App stuck at "Signing In" Help?

    I'm running Windows 8 Pro (RTM -> TechNet). Everything seemed OK the first day of use. Now onto the next day, I can't "Sign In" to any of the Xbox Apps and the Bing Weather app doesn't update its Live Tile with local weather. Other tiles/apps like Finance
    appear to be fine.
    Event Viewer is reporting:

    I am able to sign-in to the SkyDrive App without issue, and the Store App works fine as well. I have tried uninstalling Games, Music, and Video apps and reinstalling to correct the issue, no dice.  
    My Microsoft Account still signs into this site, my regular Xbox, iPad Xbox App, and Windows Phone just fine. What is up with Windows 8? Thanks in advance.

    It appears to end up having been a time sync issue. I must have only been off a couple of seconds?!? I decided to try Armed! and it reported a difference in Time when creating my profile for the game and I was like.. hmmm. So I went ahead and hit Internet
    Time settings (under Date and Time in Control Panel) and did a Update Now with time.windows.com. I am now able to login on all the apps I was having issues with before where it was stuck at "Signing In".

  • Skype keeps on signing me out automatically after ...

    Hi there, I just want to let you know, for the past few days, my Skype decided to sign itself out after a couple of hours, here are the steps I took to see if things improved, 1. I have unlinked my Microsoft account, 2. I have unlinked my Facebook account, then I have relinked my Microsoft account, so far, it staied stable, I tried relinking my Facebook account, there is where it started signing me out once again. I hope I'm not being singled out here as I've heard that others aren't having the same issue.

    When you are automatically signed out of Skype after linking your Microsoft account:
    Do you land on the Skype sign in screen again?
    Any error message shown on that like "We've signed you out because..."?
    Also: Do you happen to use the "Windows Live Mail" app with that same Microsoft account? We've seen reports of users getting signed out of Skype if they use that app: http://community.skype.com/t5/Windows-desktop-client/Having-to-log-back-into-Skype-every-time-I-open...

  • HBO GO stuck on sign in

    When I go to log in to HBO GO the sign in screen gets stuck on "Signing in..." and does not progress at all. I have tried it on several different browsers and computers. I was able to log in during the month of June, but when I went to sign in during July I was unable to. 

    Well, when I do it (and I am using chrome Version 36.0.1985.125 m) I do the following with pretty good success.
    I go to www.verizon.com/fiostvonline
    I log in, and navigate to HBO GO and select GoT
    and it plays right there on the vz website.
    http://entertainment.verizon.com/tv/3/player/vendo​r/HBO/player/embedded/asset/16186581/
    double check or try it with the latest version of chrome.
