• Cannot connect to Skype as it breaks down

  My GF can't connect to Skype at all with his Facebook account and when I tried to login with my account normally it didn't work and it crash when loading and.
  So I tried different collaborative Internet: as to reinstall Skype, 'Fixing' reg. and others think.
  (Well, if it does not, it will reinstall windows)

  6.21 of Skype. 32.104 is the so-called business version, and in this version, all the features of Facebook are disabled.

  If your girlfriend wants to use Skype with Facebook, she need to uninstall the 6.21.32.104 version and install the 6.21 ordinary. 0version.104.

• Cannot connect to Skype with my Skype name

  When I try to open Skype after the last update, I get in a loop hell 'Sign in with your Microsoft account '. I do not have a Microsoft account, I don't WANT a Microsoft account and the alleged reason: to synchronize all my devices, is not important for me, because I have only one device, my laptop. Before I could go to a screen where I could enter my Skype name and password on connection. Now, I get in a series of account set up messages I can find no way of. I can not even full logging by setting up and account, because I don't have a phone, and Microsoft requires that a phone number "for security reasons" is still possible for me over Skype? If so, HOW?

  This screen has nothing to do with the desktop version of Skype for Windows. Most likely, you are still trying to start mobility modern (metro) Skype app for Windows 8/8.1

  Open this folder on your computer:

  C:\Program Files (x 86) \Skype\Phone\

  You should see there Skype.exe file (icon Skype). Double-click on this file. What happens now?

• Cannot connect to Skype, Windows desktop application

  I can't connect to Skype Windows desktop App Win7, Skype 6.9.0.106. Username and password are good. I can log on with these on skype.com. Also I can log in using my address WP8 and hotmail.com. If I try to use my e-mail for loging hotmail.com address, this brings me to the name and password of user Skype page.

  Error: Unable to connect to Skype.

  6.9 Skype is an older version. All Skype versions prior to 6.14 are now disabled, which means that you can longer use the version 6.9. The version currently is 6.21. You must update your Skype.

• cannot connect to the client with a certain account on a wifi connected to the House.

  The account works for you connecting on skype.com, mobile apps, Skype beta.

  It will not work on this computer with my internet at home.

  BUT if I use a VPN, it can...

  I spoke with a representative of Skype and they assisted distance and were able to connect to their account on my internet at home on the same client.

  If something stops my account on this ip on the Skype client on this computer to connect. Change one of these four, and I can't connect.

  The answer turned out to be very simple. Although it is only a work around.

  Use VPN to connect to Skype. Disable the VPN.

  Still works, so I'll take it.

• Cannot connect to the game using Microsoft account, password is incorrect, or account does not exist.

  I just installed Dirt 3 on my new computer, when you are prompted to log in to my Live account. I put in my info, then the code of the key to the game. She then returned and say my account does not exist or my password is incorrect. After trying twice more I came here.  It is the same account and password that I use here.

  I'll start from the beginning.

  Some time ago a friend bought a game for me (Dark Souls prepare to Die Edition) by Toys R us as a gift. I needed to connect with GFWL to save progress. I did, using my XBOX Live account. I played 40 hrs of this game, my PC is dead. It was during the summer 2014.

  Fast forward to now, I reactivated my Windows Live account and tried to install the game in my new computer. After that I set my account sign in problems (had to change my password three times until he acknowledged) the error message I now get it that the product key is registered to a different Windows Live account.

  There is no other windows Live ID someone else has access to my account STEAM or WINDOWS ACCT. To my knowledge none have been hacked. I was put through three individuals when I called them. Account, a kind of guys then sale of troubleshooting. After that wanted to sale onto me accounts that I hung up. No one knew that STEAM has been and has not yet recognize that GFWL is actually managed by Xbox apparently (have concluded that myself). I know GFWL is now active, BUT I'm always supposed to be able to access my game.

  Hi Birol,

  Thank you for giving us the opportunity to help you with this problem.

  As described in the question, you want to know why you need a Microsoft Account to use Skype and other applications. You want to close your Microsoft Account.

  I wish to inform you that you need a Microsoft Account to make purchases from the store Windows. Your Microsoft account is the combination of an email address and a password that you can also use to connect to services such as Hotmail, Messenger, SkyDrive, Windows Phone, Xbox LIVE and Outlook.com.

  You can connect to Skype using Skype or Microsoft Account account. It is not mandatory to have a Microsoft Account to access Skype. Download the desktop version of Skype App and use the Skye account to access.

  You can connect to Windows 8 by using the Local account Microsoft account. If you connect to Windows 8 using local accounts you cannot access some of the features of Windows 8.

  Apart from this, there are a lot of Apps through which you can be in contact with other people. You need Microsoft Account to access the apps like Messenger, calendar, people App or Windows store.

  I would ask write you to with the description of the problem you're having with Windows 8, so that we can help you to solve. If you want to close your Microsoft Account you can see the link here.

  The correct setting in the Windows registry is the following:

  "Content Type"="text/css".

  You can just use the attached file css.zip.
