When I sign off Skype for desktop my status change...

It's really annoying because people message me thinking I'm near my pc when in fact I'm completly offline. Why does my status change to away when I sign out of skype? and when I sigh in again it comes to to normal online status. 

Switching your phone off does not disconnect your Skype from the server.
Try the /showplaces and /remotelogout chat commands.

  • Skype for Desktop Not Launching on Surface 3

    I have a new Microsoft Surface 3 and when I tried to use the Skype app for the first time today, I got the following message. Time to get a new Skype app We've replaced the app with an improved Skype experience.  See what you can do with the new app.  Download now. On 7 July 2015, we will be turning off Skype for Modern Windows......please download Skype for Windows Desktop. After I have followed the instructions and removed the old app and downloaded and installed the new program (7.6.80.105) and pinned it to the Start sceen, when I launch it, having entered my log-in credentials, I am taking to a "Skype" window, but it only allows me to manage my Microsoft account.  This screen starts with: Hello!  Here's where you manage your account. There are no options anywhere on this screen to launch the actual Skype program. Please advise that has happened, as - at the moment - I have a new Surface 3 that cannot run Skype. Thank you.

    Hi,
    Can you share a screenshot of what your are seeing when you launch the Skype app?
    You might want to try clicking the "Sign in with a different account" link at the bottom of that window and see if that helps to take you back to the "Sign in to Skype with my Microsoft account" option.

  • Installation Problem - Skype for Desktop on Dell Venue Pro 8

    I have a new Dell Venue Pro 8.  It had the modern Skype app installed out of the factory, but clicking on it made me download the Skype for desktop app.  It downloads fine (in looking through the forums, I saw that others had problems with this, but it was fine for me).  The problem comes when it's installing.  Skype brings up the "Installing Skype" window.  The problem is that it takes up the whole screen.  I can do what I need to with the "Select your language" drop-down menu, but there is nothing that lets me go to the next screen.  I see no "Next" or "OK" or anything like that to use to continue the installation process.  I cannot resize the window.  Maximize and minimize are the only options.  "Move" and "resize" are grayed out. Thank you for any ideas!

    I have the latest Windows 10 and the latest Skype for Desktop. I have tried to uninstall / reinstall Skype and I have cleared the profile completely from C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Skype\ When there is a voicemail message, and I click play, it will look like it's downloading and then go back to the play icon almost immediately. Help!

  • When I sign into Skype it immediatley signs me bac...

    When I sign into Skype it immediatley signs me back out. Like, when I turn on my computer, my skyper is always open. This morning it was fine, but when I got back from school it popped open and said I had to log in. I logged in, and about two seconds later, before anything even loaded up, it logged me right back out. I've been searching through the forms for about twenty minutes now, and seeing everyone else who has been having trouble simillar to this. I tried all of the things that people said to do, nothing works. I have Windows 8.1. I'm actaully getting very irritated with it at this point, so I'm just going to leave it until some one can help me, before I throw my computer at the wall. x'D

  • When I sign into iTunes for updates, a secondary username appears and I need to enter a password. I am not familiar with the second user name. Any Suggestions?

    When I sign into iTunes for updates, a secondary username appers and I need to enter a password. I am not familiar with the second username. Any suggestions?

    Are you using iTunes on your iPad or the actual program on a Mac/PC?
    If you are using on your iPad check the ID being used by going to Settings>iTunes & App Store if the Apple ID displayed isn't yours tap it and select Sign Out then sign in with your own Apple ID.
    If you are referring to iTunes on a Mac/PC select the Store Menu and check the Account Name next to the View Account text, if this isn't you select the Sign Out option directly above it then Sign In with the relevant credentials.

  • Digital Signature for QM notification status change

    Hello experts,
    I need your guidance regarding implementation of user digital signature for QM notification status change. Our customer has ECC 6.0 but they are not inclined to introduce enhancement package 3 soon. Now their requirement is that while QM notification status change they want to have a user signature pop-up to verify the user authorization to do so. But they don't want to do so by using digital signature via DMS status change.
    I am really not sure if I have explained the situaion correctly or not as i am quite new to QM. But I am desparately looking forward to get your valued replies in this regard.
    Best regards,
    Anirban

    To fulfill the FDA requirement we have apply the logic to make sure that a digital signature is captured for status changes during task processing.
    To map this requirement we have developed one custom table to store remark that will be displayed on digital signature remarks textbox. This table will have following feild:
    STAT - System/ user status
    QMART - QN type
    SPARS - language
    TEXT - character text.
    Work with ABAPer to implement this, and after implementing validate following key point:
    u2022     Validate that after successful digital signature that the signature cannot be overwritten.
    u2022     Validate the locking of the User ID after customer specific number of unsuccessful signature attempts.
    u2022     Verify that the digital signature works for each status.
    u2022     Validate that if the digital signature is cancelled prior to successful entry that the system status reverts back to previous status and all processing authorizations allowed for that status still function properly.
    Hope my reply will help you.
    Thanks!!!

  • How do I turn off skype for web (beta) when I log-in to my outlook email

    I've noticed in the past couple of days that when I log-in to my outlook email page that it shows the new 'skype for web (beta) icon at the top right of the messenger pane instead of the old message link.  How do I  turn this off and go back to the old version as I don't like the new skype for web and much prefer the old style message pane?  I have noted that when I open my People page or OneDrive page that the old version still shows there, so why can't I turn it off in my email page and go back to the original pane? I would appreciate some help and advice on this.  Thanks.

    Hi Claudius,, Thanks for replying.  You asked what I preferred about the old message pane.  I just preferred how it looked.  You could see automatically from your contact list who was online as the call/video icons showed clearly beside their name and if you simply wanted to send an IM, you just selected the contact and the IM box would appear at the bottom.  I just don't like how the new skype for web looks at the side of your Outlook email page as I don't like the layout.  I know it all comes down to personal preference and mine is for the old version.  I don't understand why they have to keep making changes to things.  The way I see it is, if something isn't broke, why break it?  The old version worked perfectly well and I preferred it but we, the users, don't get a say in anything because the people who make these decisions just go ahead and change things no matter what. Thanks for clearing this up for me.  I had hoped you could just turn it off and revert back to the old message pane but you say this isn't possible which is unfortunate. Regards, Linda  

  • Skype for Desktop on WIndows 8.1

    I have a computer running Windows 8.1.  I am having the following issues with Skype.
    When using the Windows 8.1 App for Skype, I cannot share a desktop which is needed for my business.
    2. When using the Skype for Windows Desktop, I can share a desktop, however both the App and the Desktop 6.13 rings on incoming calls, also to close either I have to go to the Task Manager and end the application that way.  Close on Desktop does not work.  Even if I log out then try to close.
    What are my options..

    Screen sharing is still not available on the "modern" Skype app for Windows 8. This feature is only available with Skype for Windows desktop.

  • Skype for Desktop is unusable on Tablet devices

    Why am I being forced to use the desktop client when it functions terribly on tablets? I enjoyed being able to use a full-screen, resizeable/multitasking client, and now I can't even see what I'm typing with the on-screen keyboard, along with being subjected to the awful banner ads that even further shrink visibility.  For the love of god, either bring back Skype for Modern Windows, or give us the option to change the interface in the Desktop app to look like it used to. Given that I literally cannot even use the client right now, no thanks to the limited ability for Skype to shrink its window past a certain size being what prevents me from seeing what I'm even typing, I will be seeking an alternative IM client unless this is resolved. 

    Go to the store and look for Skype Translator, it is basically the "modern" app with the translation bits added. It's not perfect but compared to the desktop version on a tablet its wonderful. And like the rest of us, join the queue for a proper explanation from someone at Skype or MS.
