Skype won't let me chat with my friend

Last night I was chatting with my friend with my iPad mini while multitasking. Then I get a message from and tapped the notification. But then soon after I get kicked out. At first I thought nothing of it and went back to Skype and tapped the chat. Then Skype kicked me out again. I panicked and went to see if the same thing would happen with my other friends but thankfully it didn't. Then I logged out, reset my iPad mini, then I logged back in and tapped my friend's chat. The glitch didn't go away and still kicked me out. I decided to go on my iPod touch and try talking to her there. The glitch was there too. Then I decided to uninstall Skype from my iPod and then reinstall it to see if the glitch would go away before doing the same thing to my iPad. After that the glitch still is there. I haven't had a chance yet to see if the glitch is on the family computer (it is in my sister's room and she is currently sleeping so I can't go in there yet). This is the first time this has ever happened to me and I don't know what to do. please, if anyone knows anything about this glitch then please help me. She is my best friend and I want to talk to her on Skype again. Please help me.

My Game Center won't work on my iPod touch 2nd Gen. It let me sign up but it won't load any of my games and won't let me play with my friends. I don't know why? Any help?

My ipod touch 2nd Gen let me sign up to game center but it won't load any of my games and won't let me play with my friend. I don't know if it's like this because it is old and slow, or what. Please help me figure this out. Thank You.

Try:
- Sign out of Game Center and sign back in
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

Ever since i downloaded skype to chat with a friend with a pc my ichat won't open

ever since I downloaded skype to video chat with a friend with a pc my ichat won't open - suggestions?

Hi,
So the DOCK looks like this ? (Or at least the Lion version of that)
The Menu Bar Icon looks like this ?
Ok if the App is open and you click once on the icon (Speech Bubble with Camera) in the DOCK all that will happen is that any iChat Window will come to the front.
This of course does need there to be an Open iChat Window.
Can you access the iChat Menu itself and Preferences from there ?
In the accounts section does it list any Accounts apart from the Bonjour one ?
In the Account info tab (If there is more tan one tab) does it say Use this Account and is the check box ticked ?
If before quitting iChat you close all the Windows including the Buddy List and then Quit iChat it will remember the Window state when you start it up again.
In fact the Window menu will tell you which Accounts are Logged in and these (if more than one) should match the "Use this Account" ones in the iChat Preferences.
Using the red button only "Hides" the Buddy List it does not log it out or Quit the app.
Does the Window menu list any Account like this pic does ?
(Example from iChat 4 with the Chax Add on (more Menu items) icons)
Does the Menu Bar icon (Second pic above) show you any Buddies in the drop down you see ?
This is my drop down menu for iChat 4 when iChat is Off
As you can see it says it is Off Line.
Selecting "Available" does nor launch the app for me either as it does not know which of the 6 Screen Names I usually Login is the one I want to be "Available"
I can understand the Menu (Drop Down) may have changed in iChat 6.
Nothing you have added in the last two posts indicates to me that Skype is in any way responsible (Not that I would normally wnaty to defend it)
Neither does it point to anything but a normal functions of iChat if you close it down in a certain way.
Also check the System Preferences > General Pane in Lion (it is called Appearance in earlier versions)
This has a new setting that can set for all App the ability to remember which windows were open the next time the app is launched. (i.e if a graphics app had a pallet open this would be remembered. However if all windows are closed but the app is still running when Quit this "windowless State" would be the one remembered)
(What is does do for iChat is return the "Remember Open Chats on Quit" from iChat 4 that got lost in iChat 5)

My phone has the correct AppleID in the in settings section but asks me to login with one that isn't mine. I deleted the ID from my itunes but it still won't let me login with mine. How do I get my iPhone on the same page?

My iphone4 has the correct Apple ID in the information settings section and asks me to login to my ID most of the time but when I try to update my apps, it asks me to login with an ID that isn't mine. I deleted the wrong ID from my itunes but it still won't let me login with my own ID to update apps. How do I get my iphone on the same page?

How did you obtain these apps? All apps are DRM protected & tied forever to the account used to originally obtain them. They cannot be transferred to another Apple ID(account), nor can they be updated using any Apple ID other than the one that was used to originally obtain them.

Skype won't let me join a group call

So I'm trying to join a group call and scype joins it to the point where i can see the prictures, but i can't hear anything, and then it just ckicks me out. I have tried deleting and ree-innstaling, running some scetchy cmd prompt **bleep** and allot of other things. Some forums say that i need to be friends with the hoster of the chat, and i am a friend with the original hoster, but i have no ide who has called up the chat this time. i have had this bug FOR MONTHS but just spam-joining has usually gotten me in the call.i have also seen other people complain about this problem and apparently it has been around for a long time. So apparently a problem that makes it so that you CAN'T USE THE PROGRAM HAS EXISTED FOR MONTHS AND NO REAL FIX HAS BEEN RELEASED; FOR **bleep**S SAKE SKYPE. Several of my friends also have had this problem, but as fgar as i know noone of them have reaced the stage where the program is unusable. BTW, i can still talk with other people on skype, but not the big grou chats. I have also tried downgrading, but apparently skype has removed all liks with downlaods to prevous versions so that if there is a bug that makes you UNABLE TO USE THE **bleep** PROGRAM you can't downgrade.
I might seem a bit angry, but it is summer, and i have been working for the past weeks, and i finally have a day off to chat with my friends and play games with them before i go back to work tommorom, but then i have to spen HOURS TRYING TO FIX A **bleep** BUG THAT THE SKYPE TEAM SHOULD HAVE FIXED MONTHS AGO.

Ugh, I'm having the same issue. It's been going on for awhile. The group has about 13 members in it but 3 or 4 people usually join the group calls. When I try to join I see pictures as if I'm joining, but then I'm kicked out. Sometimes it takes someone from inside of the group to call me and add me in, but even then that doesn't work sometimes. It's incredibly irritating that this bug is still a thing. I hope you get your answer soon. As of now I have none. Still trying to find a solution.

When I call an online contact the system shows the “calling” but my contact never answers.My contacts never receive any call I try to make.Skype will not hang up on a failed call. The system continues to show the calling screen when I hit the ”hangup’ Icon or use the hang up command from the menu. The system will go on calling my contact forever (well it has lasted for 95 minutes till I shut down the computer)My contacts cannot see me on line.What I have done to try and fix the problem.I have uninstalled Skype, downloaded again and reinstalled. I have done this 3 times but get the same result.I have tried deleting the DbTemp folder and also found and deleted the Skype folder in the %appdata% folder.I have even tried deleting skpe, deleting the DbTemp folder and deleting the skype folder in the %appdata% folder, then downloading a new copy and installing it.

My computer has been on standby for 3 days now because Skype won't let me quit or sign out. I can do other things on my computer while having Skype frozen but when I try to shut down my computer, it says Skype cancelled the shut down.
It would mean the world to me if a good samaritan could help me fix this really bothering issue.

Skype edition: 5.4
Solved!

I would really appreciate it if somebody could help me because the last thing i want is for my laptop to break!
Thank you

HELP !! Trying to video chat with a friend I haven't seen in 23 years.

I'm getting the "insufficient bandwidth" error when trying video or audio chat. PowerMac on my end, new iMac on the other end. My friend has successfully done video chat with a friend overseas so it seems that her end is fine. I do have a Linksys WRT54GS (ver 2.0) router and have read a lot about the issues there.
Here's my situation. First of all, when I video conf from my PowerMac to my iMac over our home network (Linksys router), no problems at all. Video and audio are great. I know it's different when going outside my home, but at least that is working. What I'm trying first is just disconnecting the router altogether and running my cable modem direct to the PowerMac. I have not had the chance to test this with a "live" chat partner. I've used "[email protected]" and the video works but no audio (does this mean anything?). In fact, I get the same result whether I go through the Linksys router or direct to the cable modem using this test.
I've done the following so far:
1. Bypassed the Linksys and going direct to the cable modem (I'm going to keep it this way until I get it to work, then I'll mess around with the router).
2. Set streaming preference for Quicktime to 1.5Mbps.
3. Tested my bandwidth at Speakeasy (6.8Mpbs down; 480kbps up)
4. Verified under iChat Preferences that bandwidth limit is set to NONE, microphone is set to iSight, and sound output is set to Line Out (since I have external speakers.)
5. All software is updated to the latest versions.
6. Verified that the mac's firewall is off.
Granted, as I said, I haven't been able to do a test with a live chat partner yet, but as I described above, the test with appleu3test01 acts exactly the same with or without the router so I'm skeptical that my live chat is going to work even with the router gone.
Can anyone help? For now, I just want to get this working without the router.
Thanks,
Ric

In case it's helpful to anyone, my iChatAV video chat appears to work just fine going through my Linksys WRT54GS v2.0 (with latest firmware upgrade) with no special settings for port openings or the like. In addition, the Linksys firewall is enabled (but not the Mac's firewall). The only change I made was to set Quicktime streaming at 1.5Mbps versus Automatic. However, I was not able to do an adequte test before I made this change, only after, so I don't know if this setting was necessary.

Firefox keeps freezing up and giving me the colorful spinning wheel especially when I'm chatting with a friend of facebook or when i'm listening to music on myspace or even have just two tabs open and it's never done it before but now it just keeps giving me the colorful spinning wheel and i have to force quit and start over.

Every time Firefox opened

Hi If you get an error message saying your flash is blocked by firewall or needs updating or similar and you just get the spinning colour wheel try this link
It takes you to Adobe which tells you which ver of flash player you have - you can then see if there is a later ver by clicking on the library and it automatically selects the correct version for you to download.
Worked a treat for me! Good Luck

Ps Don't forget to use a browser other than firefox or you will be there for days.
