Windows 8 Skype login ?

I had upgraded my Lap with Windows 8 and installed Skype from the store. When I try to login to skype its asks me for the "[email protected]", I donno weather skype had a domain name.. ? So I had logged in with my hotmail account in to skype, but unfortunately I hadn't found any contacts that on my skype, which seems like a new skype id had been created with my hotmail account. IM really freaking out with this.. Can any one help out with this weird thing...

Sadly Skype sold out to Microsoft so MS decided to force everyone to understand they know best.  Remember, Microsoft knows what your needs are better than you do.  Now, as to the solution:1) Download skype for Desktop:http://www.skype.com/en/download-skype/skype-for-computer/This way you won't have to log in with a Microsoft ID, you can just use your Skype ID.  If you have already Merged your Skype ID, and want to unlink them there is a FAQ:2) https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA12211/how-do-i-unlink-my-skype-and-microsoft-or-facebook-accountsYes, this happened because so many of us complained about the issue.Once you have installed the Skype for Desktop, it's back to how the old Skype looked.  IF you haven't already merged then you're fine.  Once you have unlinked you should have the contact back to looking normal. Hope this helps.

    If you want to see the regular Skype login screen then the only option is to make Internet Explorer to work. You can try to uninstall the currently installed version and reinstall the IE8 version.

    The other option is to make use of the “legacylogin” workaround, which should enable login to Skype using the old legacy login window. However, you will not be able to login using Microsoft account (email address).
    Quit Skype. Make sure that you don’t see any Skype.exe processes in Windows Task Manager. If necessary, then stop these processes.
    Open this folder on your computer:
    C:\Program Files\Skype\Phone\
    You should see there the Skype application file (Skype.exe).  Right click on the Skype.exe file and select: Send to – Desktop (create shortcut). Right click on the newly created shortcut and select Properties and then the Shortcut tab. In the Target field you will see now:
    "C:\Program Files\Skype\Phone\Skype.exe"
    Click with your mouse on the text in the Target field and move your curser one space after the last quotation sign and add the text /legacylogin. The text in the Target field should now read:
    "C:\Program Files\Skype\Phone\Skype.exe"  /legacylogin
    Click OK to save the changes. Start Skype using this new shortcut. Try now login to Skype?

  • Linking between Skype login and microsoft login - ...

    hi
    I've created a skype login, then tried to link to my microsoft account, but cant find any command to do that.  In desperation I tried logging out of my sskype account and then loggining back in using my microsoft account, and now I seem to have to totally unrelated accounts. 
    What have I done wrong?  and how do I link ? 
    Sorry if its a dumb question, but tearing my hair out here 

    I probably shouldn't reply, as I'm only taking a stab at this and it's a guess.
    But I recently bought a new Windows 8.1 computer, so I had to quickly become familiar with the whole outlook/skype thing. I think upon first registering with Skype, if you don't do it with your Outlook Adress, then they are now separate accounts that cannot be linked. Like, I decided to make a new Skype account with this computer, and in the beginning had the option of using my Microsoft account to make that Skype account. Had I chose a different email address, then they would not be linked.
    You'll probably have to use your outlook address to make a NEW Skype ID if you want them to be linked.

    What you are seeing is due to non-standard settings for the .css class in your Windows Registry. You can resolve this issue with few simple steps:

  • Combining two Skype logins and a messenger logins?...

    I have two different Skype logins. One was created a long time ago, and another was created a couple of years ago when Microsoft bought Skype.  How do I unite the two and still be reachable through both skype names using the same window?
    Also, my live messenger is using yet another login and it keep bugging me to upgrade to Skype, but I already have and still being bugged to download the latest Skype.  How do I integrate my Live Messenger login into my "united" Skype presence?
    It seems to me that you should be able to add multiple profiles under same username and be able to unite them all.

    sorry, but no. home sharing is designed to work between two (or more) computers on the same network.
    instead, move the entire iTunes folder (not just the iTunes music or media folder) to a public (shared) folder on your Mac. then, on each user account, launch iTunes while holding the option (⌥) key, click on choose librarywhen prompted, and select the iTunes folder you copied to the shared folder.
    new additions to the library will be instantly available to the other user accounts but only one instance of iTunes can access the library at any given time. so, if you're using fast user switching, user A must quit iTunes before user B can fire up iTunes.

  • My MacBook Pro Retina's Bluetooth chipset unknown/odd login message on the login screen states Login Window Authentication Login window Name edit text has keyboard focus. In addition, the login screen is not remembering me

    I have been experiencing several issues with my MacBook Pro Retina mid 2012. My MBPR is scheduled to go into the depot. However, I am wondering if anyone may be able to shed light on a few issues as this is the third "official" time my MBPR is going back for service ("one depot" trip; "one authorized" dealer; several in-store visits).
    My Bluetooth is stating that the Bluetooth Chipset is Unknown (0). I also have had Bluetooth Preferences mysteriously change on me. In addition, while Bluetooth is off there are two serial modems turning on. I have turned them off, but they continue to pop up.
    In addition, when I log in, my MBPR is not remembering me and my login name is not appearing on the slate-gray screen. The name and password are blank and the following message appears in the lower left hand corner. "login window authentication login window Name edit text has keyboard focus."  As a side note, I am the only user. The login issue is a recent occurrence as we just totally wiped it again via a Command + R, and I don't believe I have an accessibility setting set to anything that would cause this, but wanted to check.
    Should I be concerned here? Has anyone else had issues like this? I don't want to worry if I don't have to. I have had so many issues over the course of nine months. 5-6 wipes. Airport card replaced and I am about to pull my hair out if my MBPR doesn't come back worldly like clock work this time. I just can't send my days trying to get a $2300 product to work for me any longer. No idea what is wrong with it, but it is driving me insane. Cross your fingers for me and any guidance you have or thoughts would be welcomed. Thank you. EMM

    There are a ton of other warnings. Before I go through this again, can someone tell me if this is normal (all of it -- above too); or if these are symptoms is a keystroke logger or hardware issues? 
    I ask because originally, when my computer went in for diagnostics (more than once), Apple stated the hardware was fine (other than Airport Card -- finally). However, if I've done 5-6 total wipes; created new users; do not have sharing set-up; have not played around in Terminal; and am up-to-date with versions -- and various issues KEEP COMING BACK -- I am left wondering if a keystroke logger would be possible here?!? I thought maybe a faulty logic board, but why would diagnostics be okay, then? Not trying to be hyperbole, just desperate.
    Please help me rule keystroke logger out or at least, tell me so I know, so I can take appropriate action. If you think it could be the logic board with symptoms above, that would be a great too.
    All I want to do is use the computer as intended, but I can't seem to get a real answer, so after nine months -- I am turning to the communities to see if anyone -- anyone at all -- can help. The last thing I can do is have the MBPR come back from the depot and the same thing occur. Any guidance or advice would be so gratefully appreciated.

  • How to Bypass Windows 7 Login Screen When Forgot Admin Password

    When forgot Windows 7 administrator login password and be stuck at the login screen what can you do? Believe that many people have encountered such a situation where they are locked out of their own computer for forgotten Windows administrator password. So today I would like to talk about several tricks on how to bypass Windows 7 login screen when forgot administrator login password. Trick 1: Reset Windows 7 admin password with password reset diskIf you have ever created a Windows password reset disk for that administrator account before you forgot its password it is easy to use it to reset or remove its password. Just insert the disk into your locked Windows 7 computer and click ¡°Reset Password¡± link on the login screen. Then follow the password reset wizard to perform password reset. This is the easiest way to bypass a Windows login screen when forgot administrator password. Trick 2: Change Windows 7 admin password in Safe ModeIf you have no password reset disk you have to look for other tricks to bypass your Windows 7 administrator password. So if you have enabled the built-in administrator account you can enter Safe Mode by pressing F8 when your computer is booting. And access that built-in administrator account to change other user password. Trick 3: Bypass Windows 7 Login screen with Windows Password RescuerIf the forward 2 tricks don't work, it is necessary for you to use an effective Windows Password Recovery tool like Daossoft Windows Password Rescuer. Steps are as below.Step 1: Download and install Daossoft Windows Password Rescuer into another accessible computer.Step 2: Launch this tool and follow its instruction to burn it to a USB/CD/DVD flash drive.Step 3: Boot your locked Windows 7 computer from the flash drive.Step 4: Follow its instruction to reset/remove your Windows administrator password. Detailed video tutorial :How to Remove or Bypass Windows 7 Administrator Password - Forgot Windows 7 Administrator Password

    The methods above don't work at all. Eventually I used a paid tool - PCUnlocker Live CD, and it successfully bypassed my lost admin password. 

  • I was login a website ,and i have opened cookies , i want to open another window to login the same website use another account , and in the same windows can use the same account , how can i achieve it ? thinks

    i want to use firefox to login a website ,in the same window and different tags can user the same session
    but when i open other window and login the same website use different account .
    how can i achieve it ? thinks

    Your problem has nothing to do with the faults or limitations of a web browser.
    ''There can be only ONE active user logged in on a specific website during a whole Browsing Session. Even if you try to log-in using a new window it will sign-out the earlier User ID from that website. It will keep the most recent logged-in User ID active.''
    This is the general policy on which all websites are built. Even if you try to login the same website from another web browser, you won't be able to login from the second platform either. I just check it. Tried on Mozilla and Internet Explorer.

    hi Jain,
    you may need to check the transfer structures,
    right click infosource and 'change', click 'comm.structure'/expand,
    click 'transfer', move the 0BASE_UOM from left to right side,
    or if you wont use the comm structure anymore, you can right click infosource and 'delete comm structure'
    hope this helps.

  • SSRS Windows Authentication Login

    Hi guys, I have been battling with this issue for the past 2 days. 
    I have deployed my ssrs reports to my test server. 
    Anytime I try to  access the report manager or reportserver url from another client pc, I am being prompted with a Windows Security Login. 
    My client user isn't an part of the domain, but I want to disable that Windows Security prompt
    Steps I have taken
    1. I changed the rsreportserver config authentication type to <RSWindowsNTLM> 
    2. I have added an execution account(Local administrator) in the Report Configuration Manager
    3. I have added the Credentials Stored Securely on the report server settings.
    After doing all this, I am still prompted with the Windows Security.
    Please What Do u thing I am missing here?
    Guys I am counting on you.
    Thanks. 

    Hi earlgood77,
    As the error message said, the issue occurs because the remote SMTP server requires authentication, however, the report server is configured to use Anonymous authentication. To address this issue, we can create a virtual SMTP server on the report
    server computer which has IIS and IIS Manager installed, and relay mail to the desired SMTP server.

  • Can I have multiple libraries under different Windows profiles/logins?

    My brother and I currently share the same Windows Vista computer. In a few months we'll separate as he moves on to an iMac, but for now if he wanted to setup under his own Windows profile/login another iTunes library can he? One obviously where he'd login under his own Apple Id and containing his own iTunes music library including only his purchases from the iTunes Store. Can this be done and done easily?

    Yes of course. If your HD has space, make a complete copy of the entire library under his new login. Then, you can each delete stuff you don't want. From that point on, you can manage your own libraries independently.
    When the time comes, he can copy "his" library to his new computer.

  • Has anyone downloaded Yosemite and found that there are no ore scroll bars? I have to move the window (of any window, Skype window, browser window etc.) in order to find the scroll bar and then it disappears so fast I can't even use it.

    Has anyone downloaded Yosemite and found that there are no ore scroll bars? I have to move the window (of any window, Skype window, browser window etc.) in order to find the scroll bar and then it disappears so fast I can't even use it.

    Not sure why that was unchecked but good to know!
    Apple's new default (since at least a couple of OS releases back) is to have it off so OS X matches the behavior of an iPhone or iPad.
    I almost never need a scroll bar, and when I do, I just move over to the edge of the window when scrolling and a larger scroll bar appears.
    Yes, for the most part, users don't really need the scroll bar. That's what the scroll wheel on almost all mice is for. Saves the trip over to bar to physically grab and move it. But, I do like it on all the time regardless. That way (especially with a long article) I can just take a quick glance over to the bar to see about where I am on the page (a third of the way down? halfway?). Otherwise, I have to move the page just to make it appear to give me the same information.

  • Very slow Windows domain login over IPSec VPN

    Hi
    I'm experiencing very slow Windows domain logins over an IPSec VPN connection. The AD is in Site 1, some users are in Site 2. Two Cisco ASA firewalls connect both sites by an IPSec VPN over the Internet.
    I made some registery changes on the Windows XP client on site2 to let Kerberos communicate over TCP instead of UDP. Still the logins take extremely long (45 minutes). Profiles are very small, so there had to be a problem with Kerberos, MTU sizes or somethin like that. I already changed the clients MTU settings to 1000 byes, but login is still very slow. I made some sniffer logs...
    Does anybody know what the problem can be ?
    Regards
    Remco

    Hi Remco,
    The most common issue with slowness over VPN is going to be fragementation. In general below are the recommendations to avoid fragmentation
    1. For TCP traffic, use "ip tcp adjust-mss 1360" on the Internal LAN Interface on the Router. If you are using GRE then configure "ip mtu 1400" under the Tunnel Interface.
    If you are not using GRE then the value of "ip tcp adjust-mss" depends on the type of transform-set being used E.g. AES\3DES etc, so you can increase the value of TCP adjust command from 1360 to a higher value. Though I will start from 1360 first for testing.
    Also take a look at the below article for MTU Issues
