Still signed in even though closed skype is closed...

Hey I seem to be having an issue for months now, I dont know if this is a known issue or not but a few friends have mine have told me I'm still signed onto skype even after I sign out mannually. Sometimes I'll "Quite skype" and the program closes or I'll "Sign out" and then "Quit Skype" so skype isnt running. Also skype never tells me who has signed on, I've also noticed that some of my contacts remain signed on as well and I'll call or chat them..or even text them asking if their signed on which they will say No.
I'm updated to Skype 6.21.0.104 (It would be annoying to go 'invinsible' everytime using skype and pointless)
Thanks!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Try the /showplaces and /remotelogout chat commands.

  • Empathy still signs in even though process has been killed...

    So I have empathy installed on an arch install at home...
    Empathy has the bad habit of re-signing in an account when it gets disconnected, which works fine if it's a legitimate disconnection, but if you've signed in on another program (i.e. pidgin), you wouldn't like to be signed out.
    So, I ssh'd in and killed the process (either directly with kill -9 xxxx or killall empathy)... except it still signs me out of Pidgin because it's signing me in on the arch computer.
    However, htop doesn't report empathy as being active, so what's going on?!

    Sending SIGKILL (kill -9 pid) to a process never gives it a chance to "clean up" before it terminates. Sending SIGTERM (kill pid) is better in most circumstances, unless the process is completely unresponsive. A properly coded program will quit gracefully upon receiving it.

  • I have signed up again, but it still shows "sign up" even though i have.  Does it take some time?

    i have signed up again, but it still shows "sign up" even though i have rec'd confirmation, does it take time to process?

    Hi BonitaCartwright,
    It sounds as though you haven't logged in to the service yet. From the ExportPDF website, click Sign in at the upper-right corner, and log in to the service with your Adobe ID credentials. Now, when you click ExportPDF, you'll be prompted to select PDF files to export, instead of being asked to subscribe.
    Please let us know if you need additional help.
    Best,

  • Everytime I try to install a new app, my old email address still comes up even though I changed it on appleid

    everytime I try to install a new app, my old email address still comes up even though I changed it on appleid and Icloud....what am I doing wrong?

    Settings>iTunes/App Store...tap the ID shown...sign out...now, sign back in with your new ID.

  • Why does Googlemail not appear on the Start Page every time instead of going all through "more" and " even more etc, plus having to sign in even though I have ticked the Stay signed in box?

    There is no consistency when one gets the Mozilla Firefox Start page.There is a line as follows :
    Web Images Maps News Shopping Books more
    To get Gmail one has to click on "more" which gets one a dropdown menu which ends in "even more" Clicking on this takes one to a page headed "Even More Google Products", including (Hurrah!) M Gmail.
    Click on this and one gets the page where one signs in, even though I have ticked the box entitled " Stay signed in" and at last ones's e-mail page turns up. Very occasionally, instead of Books or Shopping on the Start Page "Gmail" is there which when clicked on takes one directly to one's e-mail.It seems a hell of a rigmarole just to get one's e-mail!

    You can set Firefox home page to one of your choosing, see [[how to set the home page]].
    If the keep me signed in option is not working, you may have a malformed cookie. Try deleting Google/Gmail cookies, for details on how to do that see [[deleting cookies]].

    Apple do not track iPad.

  • When I restart the browser, its not opening the previously opened tabs even though I saved before closing the browser. Pls guide me.

    Dear sir,
    When I restart the browser, its not opening the previously opened tabs even though I saved before closing the browser. This problem was not there in the older versions less than 3.6.8. Even the browser speed has gone down. This is everyday problem with this browser.
    Pls suggest ASAP.
    Thanks & Regards,

  • Inspector shows stills as 60fps even though project is 25fps?

    My Inspector shows stills as 60fps even though my project is set for 25fps and a couple of other weird things appear.
    1. My still default has been set to 5 seconds, yet photos appear in the Event Library as 10 seconds. When I click on one, half of it (5 seconds) is highlighted and can be dragged to the project/timeline.
    2. However, if I select several photos simultaneously, the whole 10 seconds of each is highlighted and when dragged to the timeline each one is 10 seconds, not the 5 seconds I want.
    How can I batch drag pictures so that they have a duration of 5 seconds?
    Just in case the title is not clear  .  .  .  .

    Putting 2 a3c's on a timeline invites problems. Export as a single audio file.
    This did the trick.  I deleted the two separate files, extracted the AC3 streams from the 2 source files and combined them into a single AC3 files (used eac3to for this), then added that to the project and placed on the timeline.  Now it no longer transcodes the audio.

    You might find useful advice on this Web page: Time Machine Troubleshooting, particularly item C13.
    The crazy thing is tht on my ProBook I still have them even though it uses the same Time Capsule, which to mind mind they are still there on the Time Capsule.
    Not necessarily.  Each Mac using a particular Time Capsule has its own set of backups that are independent of those of any other Mac.
    Has anybody else had this experience or has any suggestions how I can retrieve the info on my Mac?
    Why are those backups so important to you?  My advice is to move on and live without them.

  • Adobe Reader makes me sign-in even though the STAY SIGNED IN box is checked.

    I love the idea that I can view a document on my PC and as long as I'm signed-in I can later view it on my hand held device. But even though I check the STAY SIGNED IN box, whenever I close out of the program then come back I have to re-sign-in. Why won't Adobe keep me signed in as requested?

    I run Kaspersky and will have to study whether it is responsible for the problem. Under its Protection Center / Application Control there are a lot of Adobe listings and then a lot of things to look at there; many of which I do not understand. So, you may be on to something Pat; but if anyone knows specifically what I should look at in Kaspersky (or elsewhere) to determine if a specific setting is eating my Adobe cookies ... I would appreciate the guidance where to look and how to fix.

  • Audio Space Still Being Used even though Match is turned on

    My iphone is showing 20.9 GB of audio data even though iTunes Match is turned on.  There is no way to adjust what music is on my phone in the music tab in iTunes.  My understanding is that my music will now be stored in the cloud and not on my phone.  That should free up a lot of space for videos and pics.  Am I missing something?  Why is my music still in my phone?

    Ok I tried turning off Match on my iPhone the syncing with iTunes and I unclicked all my music and after syncing and rebooting my phone I went from 20GB to 12GB of audio files.  I still have music in my phone that's not selected in iTunes and on top of that I still have access to some music in iCloud. 
    I for one am sick and tired of Apple releasing bug filled software and hardware.  Next thing that comes out I'm passing on for at least a month. 
    Now trying turning off syncing music entirely and see if that takes it off my phone.  I feel like this whole iCloud business is about 20 steps backwards.  I had everything working perfectly between 3 macs a PC 2 iPhones and 2 Apple TV's and now nothing works right.  I'm sorry but iCloud *****!!!

  • Mail windows reopen even though they've been closed when Mail launches

    I've had this problem with both Tiger and Leopard.
    When I open Mail, it opens with all the previous session's message windows just as they were previously.
    Even though before I closed Mail, I closed all the message windows.
    Any ideas??

    If you open Mail and then in its File menu at the top, click on Window and choose Previous Recipients, you'll get a popup window listing them. At that point, you can highlight and delete any/all.

  • I need to update Firefox, but it keeps saying that Firefox needs to be closed first (even though all windows are closed). I cannot install or remove Firefox files due to this problem.

    Firefox was unable to open google, and I saw there was an update for that problem, but I am unable to install the update (or any update for that matter) as well as removing Firefox. Every time I try to do so, I get a message that I must close Firefox first (even though there are no windows open). I checked applications to be sure, and it does not appear Firefox is running when this happens.

    Hi kshikuma. This happens to me sometimes, as well.
    To solve this issue, open the Windows Task Manager by hitting Ctrl+Alt+Del.
    Go to the "Processes" tab and see if a process named "firefox.exe" or "plugin-container.exe" is opened. Close any and all such processes by right-clicking them and selecting "End Process".

  • Remained signed in, even though I'm signed out. He...

    Hello.
    Sorry for opening a post with no doubt hundreds of others that have had the same problem. I just can't seem to get a working solution to which I have no resorted in making a post myself.
    When I used "/showplaces" it says "You have 1 online endpoints:" And proceeds to give me details to my desktop. And to be double cautious, I use the "/remotelogout" command. Nothing appears so I am unsure if this command was executed properly or not.
    I set myself to invisible and in my Tools -> Options -> General Settings. My "Show me as Away when I've been inactive for" is unchecked.
    So after that, I click on Skype -> Sign Out. And with hopeful thoughts and praying that it worked, I check my relatives Skype in the next room and I am still appearing offline. This has been the case for over four hours without me signing back in with the hopes of it timing out.
    What other steps can I take to resolve this problem? I've tried removing and re-installing skype with no avail.
    These are my system specs:
    Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit Service Pack 1
    Skype Version: 7.0.85.100
    Without sounding harsh, I have no interest in the current development or which direction the company is trying to go in. Nor am I interested in what is trying to be achieved. I simply just want to be able to logout and appear offline as to be expected.
    Thank you in advance, if there's any more information that is required, please don't hesitate to ask!
    Kind regards.
    TLD:
    When I sign invisible, it remains in the same status as I previously was. For example, if i set myself to Do not disturb. Then set myself to invisible, I still remain as Do not disturb. Same with Away and Online.
    I cannot even set myself as Invisible.

    When you say you have changed your Apple ID, how did you change it? Did you maintain your existing Apple ID via Manage your Apple ID and EDIT it to a new email address, or did you set up a brand new Apple ID?
