Try to reset all Internet Explorer settings:

Also, open Internet Explorer. Go to Tools -> Internet Options -> Connections -> LAN settings. Make sure that the only option selected is “Automatically detect settings”.

    Yep, just found out the solution--thank you to the skype support chat folks.  They told me to download the older version at this link: http://www.skype.com/go/getskype-sseit worked like a charm.Hope this helps!

    This is the message I get everytime I try to sign in. I sign in with my Microsoft account. I've installed the latest version. I've even uninstalled it, then re-installed it. I've checked my firewall settings, and Skype is good to go. My operating system is Windows 7 Premium. Any suggestions?
    Thanks

  • OS X Yosemite - the Internet gets a bit sleepy

    Congratulations on the most irritating status message ever!
    I'm travelling in the US and on multiple networks Skype Version 7.7 (335) shows this amazingly useless information message. As a software engineer who's written routing software I have no clue what this message is supposed to mean. All other internet services here work just fine.
    Took logs with Skype First Aid, but no useful information in the ascii log and don't know how to grok the binary one.
    If you have a better solution than proposed (leaving Skype), please speak up.
    Thanks

    The internet remains a bit sleepy on every network the machine connects to on this trip (Bay Area, USA, probably the best connected place on the planet ).
    No issues with hangouts but Skype has credits for phone calls that I can't use. Giving up on Skype as a bad lot.

  • Internet gets a bit sleepy...

    As it stands, we have never had Skype work. We have installed and uninstalled atleast 5 times both ways. We have tried reverting back to previous versions of skype but to no avail. 
    We have Microsoft security essentials, superanti spyware, CC cleaner, and windows firewall which never pops up. 
     It simply tries to boot up, goes to a Internet explorer webpage, then comes back to "Internet gets a bit sleepy..." with a couple clickable links to skype log in or microsoft log in. 
     IE 10
    Chrome 43.0.2357.124

  • My PC can connect to the airport extreme but with encryption it cannot connect to the internet my iMac has no issues, any help.

    My PC can connect to the new airport extreme I just purchased but with encryption it cannot connect to the internet my iMac has no issues.  If I open the airport exteme up and provide no security everything is fine which leads me to believe it is something with the encryption between the two devices.  Not sure what step I'm missing here this shouldn't be this difficult.

    Sorry, I should have been more clear. I am asking if the DNS IP addresses, not the IP addresses assigned by the DHCP service, are the same. DNS is like the Internet's version of the Yellow Pages. Your ISP typically will provide them to you or you can elect to use those provided by another source, like OpenDNS.
    DNS is the service that translates a website's URL to its actual IP address so that you can access it. I am just trying to rule out that the PC is not configured properly with the correct DNS IP information.
    The other thing to check is if the PC is configured to use a Proxy service. By default, it would not be.
    Finally, what is the make & model of the PC. More importantly, if the PC is using either a PCI or USB wireless adapter, what is its make & model?

  • Having a problem connecting to the internet, getting a prompt saying another computer is using my IP

    I keep getting a prompt that says a computer is using my IP and I can;t get on line using my wireless router. I've gone to the DHCP to try to add other computers but that does not seem to work.

    Hey there!
    It sounds like you are having trouble updating iTunes, even though you are connected to the internet. I would start with the troubleshooting in the following article to help resolve any software conflicts, or security software issues:
    Resolve issues between iTunes and security software
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3125
    If this does not resolve the issue, I would next remove the iTunes software (this will not compromise your iTunes library):
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1923
    Or
    Removing and Reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows XP
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1925
    Then download iTunes with this link and install it:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,

  • Sometimes the debugger gets quite confused

    Sometimes the debugger refuses a breakpoint at a valid location, or when I double click in the gutter, a breakpoint several lines lower is toggled.
    Sometimes things go a little haywire.  See attached screenshot.

  • "Unable to connect to the internet, please try again" wifi issue

    I recently recieved my blackberry storm in the mail excited to use the wifi. I set it up including entering the correct security code a number of time for the "wep" security options and it recognizes the network. I believe it's connecting also, but when I open my browser the message of "Unable to connect to the internet,please try again." pops up. I have a verizon account with a data plan, but due to not wanting to use up my data plan I switched it off as only to rely on my wifi. What can I do? I've updated everything and tried so many things. Our wifi has never done this to any other device. PLEASE HELP!

    in the browser, go to the options and setthe default browser as "Hotspot browser" instead of "Internet Browser".

  • The plot gets sicker (hardwired performance issues)

    I figured something else out that may be of use to a bunch of people. The Radio Channel has an affect on performance. I was able to get near-normal throughput from my airport extreme draft-n gigabit, in b/g compatability mode, with an airport express client for airtunes. The secret: Channel 11. For some bizzare reason, the other channels limit the hardwired throughput to sub-megabit. If someone told me their hardware performed like this, i would think they were on drugs. The effects are repeatable and reversible.
    I should clarify, i'm talking about hardwired performance not wireless performance.

    Still not working-got the device authorized to be used on the campus network, had it checked out to make sure it was set up correctly. Worked on my friend's computer fine when they were in my room-picked up my signal and connected just fine. My computer, on the other hand, still gets the blinking signal indicator, both in the airport express icon on the toolbar and when I go to internet connect, and because it sees the signal as blinking on and off, it's not online long enough to connect. So we've narrowed the problem down to "not the college network" and "not the airport express" and therefore "just my computer," but I can't figure out for the life of me what the problem is. I also downloaded the airport express firmware update to make sure that wasn't the problem. Not helpful.

  • How do I change the settings so my computer doesn't time-out so quickly when I'm trying to send an e-mail and the internet's a bit slow?

    I tried sending a smaller picture (about 300 kb) to some of my family members and before it got to them the computer timed out (very quickly, I might add) so it wouldn't send. We have fairly slow internet speed at times and when I was using XP, under tools there was a feature to increase the time so the computer didn't time out as fast. I had it set at about two minutes. I can't seem to find the same feature under tools in Windows8. I'd really like to be able to address this problem. Thanks for your help.

    You could adjust the mailnews.tcptimeout preference, as explained in the 2nd point in [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Can_not_send_large_attachments this article]. Also, make sure there's no security program scanning outgoing mail attachments.
