Skype update disables my laptop's touchpad

I am running Windows 7 on a HP laptop. Since Skype updated itself, if I have Skype running I cannot use the mouse touchpad and I have to plug in an external mouse to regain any sort of control. But even then I have limited use of the mouse. I cannot select other open windows. When I hover over the start button or the task bar, I get the Windows 7 wait icon and cannot click on anything.

It seems to me that you are having a similar type of issue that seems to be common among some users with the latest release.  It's probably less that your mouse is actually disabled but rather that the touchpad software/driver is "frozen" like the rest of your desktop.  For the mean time you will have to downgrade to an earlier release and disable automatic updates.

  • Update to firefox4 disabled my laptop touchscreen

    I am running windows7 on an HP Pavilion dv6 with a touchsmart touchscreen. Touch screen was disabled by upgrading to firefox4 using the download on the website. Went back to restore point and firefox 3.6.16 and touchscreen works again. ( HP had to reinstall touchscreen drivers last week after all the Windows updates disabled it.) Will the next firefox update address this issue or must I not update?

  • Need help skype update

    hi, 
    how can i disable the updates for skype, um like every time i turn my laptop on it always say skype to update or not now and its kinda annoying now.... I need older version of skype please, i really do not like the new UI..
    Ive tried this:
    Go to Control Panel -> Administrative Tools -> Services -> Skype Updater Service -> set to DISABLED
    but when i go on that it doesnt have the option to disable, what should i do? thanks in advance

    Any updates? I have the same issue!

  • Is there any way to turn off the Skype update mess...

    Hello, I am using the Skype 6.21 version on Windows 7, for now I do not want to update to the newer version (mostly due to not liking the interface).
    My problem is every time I turn on Skype, the updater message pops up (sometimes several times, once on startup, once on login etc). I've been reading up on some solutions here however none have worked for me : / Anyone know how to get rid of this annoying message?
    Here is what I've tried so far:
    Disabling auto-updates in the program itself
    Disabling Skype Updater in the Services
    Putting skype.com and msn.com as blocked sites in the Firewall (all that this did was disable the home page feed o.O something I did not want)
    Deleting the installer file from temp files

    Zhuinden created a thread on how to downgrade, make it stick, and turn off the update messages. You can find it here:
    http://community.skype.com/t5/Windows-desktop-client/How-to-Update-or-revert-from-6-22-to-other-vers...
    Of course, this should have been an option provided in the first place, but at least we have a workaround for now.

  • Skype update available in Windows Store

    There is a Skype update available in Windows Store now. I have decided to not update it yet, I have automatic updates disabled. I suspect this update contains the "July 7 time bomb" so I will wait for reviews first. I have also made backup of WindowsApps folder where current Skype version 3.1.0.1007 resides.
    It is sad we have to "fight" with Microsoft to try to keep the Skype application work

    Same here. I wonder if Windows RT users have received the update.

  • How to turn off the skype update notifications?

    Anybody knows hot to stop the annoying skype update notifications?
    There is no way I will do any upgrades, since skype has burned me in the past, so it would be nice to find out how to stop those...
    Thanks 

    The Updater service does checks (and automatic updates) in the background.  Disabling automatic updates in Tools -> Options stops this service, but does not disable it.  You can disable the service via Start -> Run -> services.msc and finding the Skype Updater service.
    You may also notice that everytime you start Skype there still remains a pop-up dialog box prompting you to install an update.  This is because Skype had already downloaded a new version in the background and was waiting for you to install.  This happened before you disabled the automatic updates and disabled the service.
    To resolve go to Start -> Run -> c:\Users\<your username>\AppData\Local\Temp and look for SkypeSetup.exe.  Delete this file.  Exit Skype and re-launch it to verify this fixed the upgrade notifications.
    I am still using Skype 6.9 due to the recent addition of ads.  This process helps make sure I don't get upgraded unintentionally.

  • Skype Update is Terrible

    I was using Skype to send an SMS to a friend's mobile phone and the updater kicked in, I closed the install pop-up window, which caused my Skype session to abort.  The installer is very buggy, does not ask if you want to install now or later (this is sporadic), and whoever programmed this piece of crap needs to go back to Computer Science 101 and pass this time around. IF this happens again, I am going to uninstall Skype.  Can you imagine a session being interrupted by the installer and crashing your session if you are in the midst of a video conference with an important client at work? And yes, I have the skype updater service DISABLED in the task manager, so WTF is going on? I am truly p*ssed off  

    I'm having the same problem as well, running Windows 7 and worse as Skype will eventually refuse to allow me to input text at all, and will not draw a window after I alt-tab to another program. It also access my hard drive constantly while it is running, even when it should likely be idle.
    I've tried both re-installing Skype itself and deleting main.db, in case its size (around 150mb) was causing problems. All of these have been to no avail

  • Huge smileys in latest Skype update

    In the latest skype update, whenever you post a smiley on its own it becomes this huge animated thing which takes up two lines of text. Is there a way to stop it from doing that so it stays the normal size, like if you add a smiley to an existing line of text? It's very annoying.
    Thanks!
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    That's not a bug, that's a FEATURE DON'T YOU ENJOY THE GIGANTIC EMOTICONS OMGOSH WE CAN BARELY SEE THE MESSAGES AND NOW THIS! No way to turn it off in Windows either. YEAHHHHHHHHHHH
    Turn off Emoticons or do this:
    Download Skype 6.21 from here filehippo.com/download_skype/58884/
    then go to Control Panel -> Administrative Tools -> Services -> Skype Updater -> set to DISABLED
    then go to Control Panel -> Internet Options -> Security -> Restricted Sites -> Sites -> add apps.skype.com and g.msn.com

  • I can no longer find Software Update on my laptop.  Running 10.10.1.  What happened to it?  Where did it go?

    I am running 10.10.1 MacBook Pro (Retina,15-inch, Late 2013) w/ 2 GHz Intel Core i7, and can no longer find Software Update on my laptop.  It is not in the menu under the Apple logo.  It canot be found in the applications list through Preferences.

    Where did it go? 
    Why?

    The Software Update item in the Apple menu has been REPLACED by the App Store. It is still present in the system if you go to About This Mac, where you will see "Software Update..." as one of the buttons in the Overview section of the information window that appears. The difference here is that the App Store menu option will only launch the App Store's main landing page, whereas the Software Update button will launch the store and then check for any system and other updates available.

    If they are iTunes purchases that you bought on your phone then have you copied them over from it to your computer's iTunes ? If that is the computer that you sync the phone to then you should be able to copy them over by connecting it and doing File > Devices > Transfer Purchases. Or (depending upon what country that you are in) you might be able to redownload them directly on your computer's iTunes via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage.
    In terms of your account's balance, have you tried logging out of your account on your computer (Store > Sign Out menu option) and then logging back in (it will change to a Store > Sign In option) and seeing if your balance changes ?

  • Can I transfer updates from my laptop to my desktop computer?

    Due to the slow internet available in my area and the cost of Verizon service, can I transfer updates from my laptop to my desktop?  I use the library forupdates as their speed is much faster and I can carry the laptop.

    If you download the updates from the Apple Support site, instead of with Software Update, you can transfer them.

  • BIOS Updater tool for laptop says it is not comptible with laptop.

    I have a Satelite C855D-S5106, and Toshiba says, when I go through all the dropdown boxes to select my model of laptop, that there are two (one older, one newer) BIOS updates for this laptop. However, when running either update tool, they both give me a notice, stating that they are not compatible with my model of laptop.
    What do I do now?

    The Toshiba service station can also update the bios.
    Your support page is here - Support page
    The newest bios update information:
    Change History
    Version 6.20 - 2013-01-21
    Fixed: System hangs after settings are changed by TSS.
    Added: CER key for a Smart DE issue.
    This shows that it fix's system hangs after settings are changed by TSS (Toshiba service station), That tool shows you what updates are available, then downloads and installs them for you. Because of this I would update the bios though many believe that if its not broke dont fix it when it comes to the bios. 
    The Toshiba service station sometimes will show a bios update that does not apply to your laptop, it went away after a couple of weeks on mine.
