Create a Skype account without a Live account

How to create a Skype account without creating a Live account?

We use Skype for work and use a special naming convention during their implementation, including the name of the company, so a custom name is important to us.

With our last user account, it was automatically awarded the name:-live: last

Is there a way to change this? I know he has not been in the past, but he used to allow you to choose your Skype name.

Thank you

The ability to create new accounts Skype using Skype Name no longer exists.

  • How do we know which email address I used to create my Skype account.

    Hello

    I have a Skype account, but do not remember the email address I used for this account. I know that I used it in the past for Skype credit and most of my friends and my family have me in their list of contacts under this name.

    I created a new account from but I would still get the old account since most of my family and friends have this account and I probably still have some Skype credit on it.

    The problem is that I don't have all the order numbers or know what credit card was used because I haven't used that account at least a year and probably more.

    Can someone help me?

    Thank you!

  • 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

  • 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:

  • My Skype account has been disabled and I can't answer the questions for re - activate

    I wonder to indicate the year that I created my Skype account, which I do not remember. I also wonder to provide credit card details. I have only ever paid for Skype calls for a short time, a long time ago so I don't remember the details of credit card that was used.

    The website says there is a cat of support, but after following all the links just to send me round and round in infuriating circles.

    Does anyone know how to contact a human being using Skype? Even if only by e-mail, or by raising a ticket online?

  • Need to create separate Microsoft accounts for each user on Skype?

    We have a laptop family with a single connection from Windows, and we Skype to instsalled office. My husband and I have our own Skype accounts, and we've been able to connect to these separate accounts (not at the same time, but that's fine). Today, I opened Skype, and the interface was changed. I got my husband to open my session, but he said that I need to create a second account from Microsoft to connect under another user of Skype. I don't want a new account from Microsoft. I have enough accounts of various kinds, and I want a unique Windows connection for this laptop. I want different users of a Windows account to connect to Skype with Skype accounts that we already have in place. How to do this?

    I think I found my problem. I reinstalled Skype and realized that what I was watching was a Skype app, I had not seen before and not the Skype for the desktop application. I am connected to Skype for Windows under my own account.

    Sorry for jumping the gun and thank you to all of you who have been thinking about this issue.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Unable to swith to or create a Microsoft Account (0xd0000072)

    Hello

    I tried to switch my account from Windows 8 to my Microsoft Account * address email is removed from the privacy *. Unfortunately, the last step of the wizard fails with the 0xd0000072 error code.

    By reading the forums, I tried the suggestions described in http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_8-security/why-cant-i-use-my-microsoft-account-to-sign-in-to/aa9a8944-3ffd-4ab4-8c68-7bd6599e1ab1 and http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_8-security/cant-switch-local-account-to-microsoft-account/742e6d1d-28f3-4712-a9cb-05e815b0a7ca . Without any chance however.

    In addition, create a new local account as a Microsoft Account fails with the message that the account could not be created and that I go to live.com/password/reset.

    How can this problem be solved?

    Thanks in advance and greetings.

    I have exactly the same problem.

    I was able to connect on a computer laptop windows 8 before with this account, but since I was renaming the account that I had no chance.
    I tried to delete the account completely (to eliminate the original PC files), add, removed trusted PC, reset the password and run the application of the resolution of the problems (not found error) with no luck.
    I think it's something wrong on the part of Microsoft, I found many people with the same problem and nobody seems to have discovered a workaround solution.
    Update * I could succeed in removing all traces of my previous Microsoft opening accounts to log on to the laptop of the old Identities registry cleaning (do a search for @hotmail.com or @outlook.com according to your address of course and remove all entries).
    For people having problems on the new laptop, I would suggest remove account.live.com associated PCs.
  • Skype account exposes my e-mail or mobile phone number

    When I create a new Skype account, I have to use my cell phone or my email address, which then become my Skype name. This means that my e-mail or telephone would be exposed to my contacts. Let's say I want to use Skype to support, and I don't want the visitors I spammed with emails or calls? And I can't stop them because I can't hide my phone/email, because now it's my Skype name.

    Did I get all inclusive?
