  • How to find the name of Microsoft Account of Skype contact?

    Hello

    I would like to move some of my business contacts to Lync 2013 which basically supports adding Skype contacts, but he needs the Microsoft Account of this contact. How can I know the Microsoft Account a person in my Skype contacts list? I'm sure that one or other of the people on the list has decided to use his Account MS to connect to Skype, but when I open the page of profile suspects with the help of this option , I see not their Skype name.

    Thanks for your help

    As far as I know, the only option to add Skype contacts to Lync is using their email address. This must be the same address that contacts were used to create the Microsoft account.

    This e-mail address is not in their profile, so you'll need to ask them to provide you with this address.

    Also, Skype users will only see their Lync contacts when connected with its account of Microsoft. Lync contacts will not appear when you are signed in with the Skype name.

  • Application of music and video app and Microsoft Account username and password

    I use Windows 8.

    I changed my account from Microsoft.

    So now when ever opening the Xbox Music app and video Xbox application it asks for verification. He asked just the password. Looking for a password for the Microsoft account no longer exists.

    So I click on Cancel.

    But when I click on login on the top right button, it then asks the password of the account that does not exist.

    How I completely re-login to both apps with my new account?

    I called Technical Support from Microsoft and with their help, I could solve the problem. To help others who may have this problem (or similar), I will post how I could solve the problem (with the help of Support technique Microsoft).

    The way it was set was:

    First of all, I went to a Microsoft Account for login. Who did all the applications that use the Microsoft account.

    Second, I went to my local account.

    Finally, when I went to the local account that deleted the application login information Microsoft account. This allowed me to login with my account from Microsoft on all my apps. Fixed a problem!

  • How can I delete Skype and get instant onMy computer back. Win XP SP3

    I tried to remove Windows Live Essentials to try to remove the latest version of Skype.

    He's not goodbye when I chose to remove in the control panel.  You have andy ideas?

    Hello Possum3201,

    Microsoft are taking his retirement from Windows Messenger. He was replaced with Skype. Even if uninstall you Skype and re-installed one copy of Messenger, you would get the reminder screens, which suggests that you update your copy of Skype Messenger. Finally you will also find that Microsoft would create an automatic update for Skype for everyone using Messenger.

    I don't understand why Skype will not uninstall from Add/Remove unless you actually upgraded from messenger. TI live maybe a case of having to uninstall all apps windows before it can actually uninstall Skype on its own. However, this is purely speculation on my part as I have not personally tried to uninstall Skype me. Have you also tried to uninstall in safe mode? Keep pressing the F8 key as your PC starts and then, when a menu appears, select Safe Mode.

    It seems that Skype is something that we all have to get used to. personally, I'm not this desire

  • What is the difference of acer identify you and Microsoft account! I'm very computer dumb.

    I have problems to know if there is a difference in an acer account and a microsoft account or there is no difference? I like to play games on facebook. my internet is slow because I can't afford to go faster, sometimes it seems that I have 2 different computers in one. I don't know if anyone understands what I mean.

    Acer sign is for the Acer site. Forums, your Acer account, etc. On behalf of MS is, it's just that. It connects you to Microsoft and has nothing to do with Acer.

    Hi Helen,

    If you try to start from scratch, the new facility is the option.

    Note: after a clean installation, all data, programs, and drivers on the computer will be lost. It is recommended to make a backup of your important data before performing any installation. You need to reinstall the device drivers. Make sure that you back up office documents before re-formatting of the computer.

    You can follow the steps mentioned in the link below to reinstall Windows Vista.

  • How to combine a Fotolia and Adobe account

    Hello Rostislav,

    Thanks for your post. Do you have a Fotolia account existing that you want to synchronize with your Adobe ID, or are you concerned your downloaded files are also not available to Fotolia? All Adobe Stock content is mirrored to Fotolia, so if your scenario is the one you should be all set.

    However, if you already have an Fotolia account and synchronized need, please send me an email with your Adobe ID and your Fotolia ID and I'll see what I can do.

  • How s/n know when and what account perform a function using the database link?

    Dear,

    My application of the CIM team asked DBA to create new function and run it. Function must use the database link for remote database data. So I need to create a new database to their licensing link. Cause we guess we'll experience the performance issue after the user performs this function, or another question and errors may occur. So we want to know when and who use this feature that connects to a remote database through the new database connection in advance. And I also need to know when and which connect to the remote database using this new database link. We have no idea to get this information?  Can anyone recommend how do? Thank you very much.

    Best reqards, Otis.

    Check what business purpose, it will solve.  If the function is so safe, why everyone will use. Only admin people should access.

    All of these additional controls of this kind must be avoided as much as possible to improve the overall performance of the application.

    Still if you need, see the database audit mechanism, specifically designed for this type of activity.

    Kind regards

  • 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.

  • Why should I use a microsoft account to use other applications like Skype on Win8? I don't want that, and I don't want to not someone who wants me including microsoft!

    I want to close all my accounts MS after that got myself trapped in windows 8. Can someone tell me how I can do this. I really get tired of windows 8

    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.

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Live/account-close-account

    Note: If you have a Hotmail Plus, Xbox Live or another subscription, cancel this subscription before you close your Microsoft account. If you manage on behalf of Microsoft for the child, the child Microsoft account permissions will be revoked if you close your Microsoft account.
