Stuck trying to download Skype

Hi
I am trying to download Skype to my laptop but whenever I try and open it, it says "Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file.  You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item".  What do I do?

Is your Windows 32-bit or 64-bit?

  • I am trying to download skype, but it asks to agree to the terms of service. So I go to my email and check the terms fo service, but I don't know where the "agree" button is. Can someone please help me?

    I am trying to download Skype to my ipod (my friend gave me his old ipod touch, which is about 1-2 years old, according to the year 2014) And when I tried to install it, it said that I have to agree to the terms of use. So I go onto my computer and review the terms of use there on my email. I could NOT find the "agree" button. Please, can someone help me?

    The button would be on your iPod version of Skype, not the computer version. They are not the same.

  • Trying to download skype but going to slow wtf!!!

    why is it downloading so fing slow dont give me the lame noob fixes cuz i know my net is fine its your junky ass servers fix them!!! goes to 3 hours then it gets so slow it dont even have a time when it is going to be done like wtf it isnt even a big file!!!

    If the download server was actually slow I'd probably see more than one recent complaint in the Community.  I just tested it out and I downloaded the 34.4 Mb full setup in around 12 seconds.  
    Skype 6.21

    If for some strange reason it's slow through your ISP (possibly due to site restrictions/load balancing) try downloading the file via a proxy.  Temporarily disabling any AntiVirus/Firewall/Security software before downloading might help as well in case the abnormal slowdown is being caused by that software.

  • MY iPhone has stuck trying t download google Chrome...reset didn't help and I can't find in on search or screen to delete, what next?

    my notes on iPhone and iPad don't sink,  I am using iCloud as notes for both devices....should they?

    You should continue to dry it in rice for a week and change the rice daily.
    All you can do is dry the iPod. Turning on the iPod before it is dry can can cause permanent damage.

  • How to Download Skype

    Hello
    I am trying to download Skype on the iMac. But the security sais it can only download from the App Store.
    How can I change the settings to allow this download?
    Thank you

    Download Skype and the Control+Click or Right Click on the downloaded file and select 'open', you should then be able to install it.
    To change the way the Mac handles downloads go to System Preferences>Security & Privacy>General tab and change the default to 'Mac App Store and Identified Developers' (you may need to click on the padlock and input your admin password in order to make the change).

  • Why can't i download skype on my ipad

    I am trying to download Skype on my iPad and I keep getting an error message that tells me that the app isn't compatible with my iPad.  Any reason why?

    Depending on where you bought it/where you are, apparently some foreign countries do not allow the skype program to run - as in some middle eastern countries.
    Also, you do need to download skype for iPad or through the iTunes store. Normal programs, made to run on a PC or Mac won't run on an iPad. Different operating systems
