  • Skype account and not Microsoft-account

    Hello

    I would like to create a Skype account and not a Microsoft account.

    Three weeks ago, which was still possible to create a Skype account, but now it seems that I have to create a Microsoft account.

    Is there a way to always create just a Skype account without having to create a Microsoft account?

    Thank you very much!

    You can create a new Skype account with a Skype name of your choice using this form:

  • Old abandoned Skype account

    I recently created a Skype account associated with my microsoft account like he told me to post a bond with her. I then separate this account from my microsoft account. I then create a new Skype account with my account microsoft even, but then I realized that my old Skype account is still there and abandoned. I can't access my old Skype account to change the details because it is not coupled with my microsoft account.

    Is there a way to link my old Skype account on my microsoft account so that I can change my details. I know what my old Skype account name (live: * 29) and I always feel like my new Skype account, but I'm too scared to separate my new Skype account with microsoft acount

  • Merger of Microsoft and Skype accounts

    Impossible to get a straight answer to onthisone:

    I started to use Skype when I had 8 win computer laptop and I connect to Skype via direct. com

    I use this account with Win 7 Pro

    I opened a separate account with a non-microsft connection, using my gmail address

    I also started a 3 month subscription inthi counts as a separate skye # phone

    After that I built my profile and save itl.

    The message is: the benefits of the merger to your Microsoft account with your Skype to othe account = 20%, which would give me a total of 100%.

    The problem is simple: how to merge the 2 accounts? I'm doing research and I get responses on the merging of accounts.

    And? my Skype phone # and my subscription of 3 month deferred on account of gamil on behalf of microsoft as welol.

    I can't do this thing of fusion and I'm about to drop the bloody service.

    Thanks for allowingme evacuate ;) lol

    Drew

    This merge option you're talking about now is to merge Microsoft + Skype accounts.

    The original you message posted, you seemed to indicate that you had 2 separate Skype accounts (as you say, you had a separate phone for each number), and you want to merge these.  That's what I meant about "no merger", there is no way to make a fusion of Skype + Skype.  If you didn't speak to merge two Skype accounts, I apologize for the misunderstanding of your request.

  • Skype account is always available with the old user name and password after you bind Microsoft account

    https://support.Skype.com/en/FAQ/FA12081/how-do-i-sign-in-to-Skype-for-Windows-desktop-with-my-micro...

    After my new account Microsoft a link to my original Skype account, I'm still able to sign into account newly merged with the old Skype account username and password. Of course, I am also able to connect to the account merged with the Microsoft Mail and as well password account.

    My question is this, is this a planned security measure? As far as I know, support faq suggested using the Microsoft account to connect to the newly merged account. The support page is in the link given.

    I thought that once the merger of Skype accounts both Microsoft, the only method to sign the merged account is using the Microsoft account only. Please enlighten me on this matter. Thank you.

    This works as expected. When you link a Microsoft account with Skype account name, you should be able to connect to Skype, either by using Skype or Microsoft account name. Two connection options will lead to the same account.

  • How to convert the local account to a Microsoft account?

    Help please. I'm trying to convert a local account log in on a Windows PC to a microsoft account so I can activate parental controls for my son. God knows why you can't control a local account not more. However, I do not get an option to convert - any help appreciated please.

    You should be able to do it by opening the PC Settings page and select "Accounts" (the fastest way there is in the start menu, click on the picture of the user and select ' edit photo account ").

    Just under the user name, you should see a link: "To connect to a Microsoft account" click on a link and follow the instructions.

  • I can't use my Skype account ordinary.

    Hello. I just installed Skype on my phone, I have asked me to connect to a Microsoft that I did, and then he asked me if I had a regular Skype account, which I do, but I was not at home and that he could not remember the details of connection, so I said no and just proceeded with the Microsoft account. Now I'm home and I'm not able to connect to a regular account, it does not ask again once you said no. I tried to reinstall the software, it didn't work.

    So, how can I connect to my regular account? This stupid Microsoft account does not have my contacts and threw a bunch of "people I could now" in my phone, which I know that half. I just want to use my Skype, why I can't?

    Hello!

    1. Right click on the top button.
    2. Scroll down the menu until you see sign out.
    3. Click sign out.
    4. Then click on sign in with a different account.
    5. Then continue as usual.
    6. Enjoy using your Skype account ordinary.

    All best

  • Re: Need help to separate Skype account blocked

    I have this problem and it is quite ridiculous and very frustrating. My wife was using an old account of Skype that I linked to his new xbox live ID a couple of years. No problem at all for 2 years and then last week, as the Skype account was suddenly suspended. His only use of Skype is to talk to his mother abroad each week, so I tried to fix it for her.

    I filled out the form but no matter what info I get I get just an email two days later saying my data is not good enough on behalf of output. They suggested that I have create a new account and link this one instead. The problem is that I need to connect to the suspension Skype account on skype.com to untie and forcing me to use perfectly valid MS account my wife to do. This redirects to the Skype account recovery page and this circle completely stupid of pain comes to an end. I need to recover an account that I am not allowed to recover just if he can UNTIE a valid PAY XBOX LIVE GOLD account! This is beyond stupid xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

    The appropriate design would allow me to control the Skype done to dissociate from the normal ms account administration pages. This account is - once again - very well. I don't know yet why the Skype account was suspended after 2 years of valid use on xbox it anyway. We do not know what magical details, let Skype admins remove the suspension. I could not even connect to make this post using the account of my wife because it redirects to the recovery page, lol. I am connected using my normal personal gold account. Skype account ID my wife is [private information removed by Moderator] , just in case the admins read this and have mercy on us.

    I don't have access to the old account. I'm perfectly willing to create a new and a link to account however valid to my wife. Please help, because management refuses to do anything.

    Hello

    We have unlocked account of your wife. The account was taken over by a crook. Please change the password as soon as possible.

    I recommend that you always run the latest version of Skype: Windows & Mac

  • Second Skype account?

    OK, I used the forum search and never got near to know what I needed to know.

    HOW can I add a SECOND Skype 'name' - while I can "toggle" between my first (personal) account and a SECOND account (business)?

    I tried to close my account current (window) and then re - enter via Skype signin but there isn't an option to create a new account. I only gave my account view OR signature with a Microsoft account - which I do not want to use. I would like to be able to make use of both of these accounts (toggle back by signing in and out) on the same laptop.

    Is this possible and if so, why the hell not? Thanks for all your comments.

    Create new Skype account on the web:

    https://login.Skype.com/account/signup-form

    Once the account is created, you will now be able to switch between accounts using the Skype application on your computer.

    If you wish, you can also have the two accounts open at the same time:

  • "This Skype account is already merged.

    When I try to connect to Skype it asks me to merge my Skype account, then tells me that it is already merged and won't let me log on

    Hi, the same thing happened to me. I was really frustrated at first, then I realized that I had previously merged my Skype account with another hotmail account. So I had to separate these two, before I could connect using my NEW account of microsoft windows 8. How to unlink the account Skype and the hotmail account, if I can't connect in the first place? Well, go to the Skype website. It will allow you to connect, and it offers the possibility to separate accounts. After you remove the link, you link with the new microsoft account.

  • Link MS and Skype account

    Hi guys! :-)

    I need help. I have read many articles and the HelpDesk here, but I couldn't find a solution.

    Well, I have a Microsoft Account and a Skype account. I would like to connect them with eachother.

    I know that the official solution: connection with MS Account, then click on "I have a Skype account"... but I only did this for the first time that I'm connected with MS Account. Since then, I'm not able to get this window so I can't link the accounts.

    You have an idea or a solution?

    Thank you very much

    Adam

    The link doesn't work right. However, I had to solve it on the Skype live support chat.

    First, login with the account of MS on Skype.com, then go to account settings (bottom), then separate your MS Access and say Yes in the pop-up window.

    Download Skype for PC desktop (not integrated into Win8/8.1) and install. Then connect with your VAC MS and he asks you about Skype ACCESS. You connect with her, and after that, you need to connect with your MS VAC only. Do not use your VAC to Skype again.

  • Skype accounts

    In the good old days, it was possible to have a Skype account without the need to have an email address of the account/Microsoft. Now Microsoft have got there hands on it looks like it is no longer the case

    Granddaughter, 7 years old, I would like to be able to talk to her grandmother using his own account, is not that of the parents.  Don't want a Microsoft account or e-mail account. Skype can be created without the need to register for Microsoft email account/address?

    Since it is now necessary to have a microsoft e-mail address/account, why do you want to ask if it could be done without it? No it can't.

    Hello Samanthametallia,

    If your Windows Live (Outlook.com) account has been hacked, then I suggest you follow the procedure described in the following link: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-GB/windows/outlook/hacked-account

    A hacker is enough clever delete all history available so that you won't be able to know what information has been sent via Skype, I'm afraid.

  • Unable to connect to Skype account.

    Original title: SKYPE

    I have problems logging back on my Skype account. I did a backup and recovery with no luck. Everyone HELPS

    Hello

    Thanks for posting in the Microsoft Community Forum. Rest assured that we would do our best to help you.

    Answer the following questions which would help us understand the issue:

    1. what exactly happens when you try to sign in to Skype?

    2. do you get an error message/code? If Yes, what is the exact error code/message you get?

    3. which version of Skype you installed?

    4. have you installed security software on your computer?

    Try these steps and check if that helps:

    Step 1:

    If security software is installed I suggest to disable the security software for the moment and verify if you are able to connect.

    Note: Be sure to activate or activate security software once you are finished with the test.

    Important note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks

    Also to disable the firewall for the moment and check. To do this, visit the following link:

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/283673

    Note: Be sure to enable the firewall once you are finished with the test.

    Step 2:
