• Computer didn't wake up after the installation of Skype!

  "Do the wrong thing and Skype from Microsoft installed after telling me it was an update for Windows Live, now the machine goes to sleep but not awaken, the only way I can wake him up is to hit the Start button! has worked perfectly before this update "Windows Live"! someone an idea on how to solve this problem? »

  I'm not sure who gave the answer could understand what I wrote! I know what caused the problem, install 'SKYPE '! There is no problem of this magnitude before this, I had run all shooters of boredom and changed the power settings, all were useless, the only thing that helped so far, was to change the HDD to 3 hours stop, it was only that I've been away all day and would not wake up that I hit the Start button then the usual questions resurfaced as pending problems forever and script.
  There is no change in the Bios, the only thing but which would have changed anything here, would have been on Skype, if you're suggesting THAT SKYPE would be, I should look into that!

  I tried to install Skype today and McAffee blocked it saying it the installation file has a virus.  Think this detection was a mistake by McAfee and since I downloaded the program directly from the site of Syke I turned it off.  I removed Skype folders and clean all temporary files of Windows and my user profile.  Also, I cleaned up all other temporary files using Cleanmgr.  After that, I was able to restart the installation of Skype.  It was not long to get a lot of pop strange messages.  I immediately right click on the taskbar to access the Task Manager and stop installation.  To my surprise, the task manager has been disabled.  Who confirmed that I had just been infected by a virus.  So I pressed the power button to turn off the computer.  I have restared in safe mode and run the utility to restore the system (rstui.exe).  After I restored the computer to a previous point all was back to normal.

  It seems that someone has hacked into the site and replaced the installer with an infected.

• TOSHIBA Libretto SD Card - gel after the installation of the SP3/Windows Update

  Hello

  Since the installation of SP3 via Windows Update on a new installation (Original Toshiba Recovery CD) my card reader SD freezes Windows after putting the card in the slot.

  The card is OK and formatted.

  Besides updating windows doesn´t work more.
  I´ll to pass the message on the updates, and the installation stops.

  The patch couldn t be installed because there is a problem with the computer.

  I m of the Austria and I translate to English.
  Hope you can read and understand it - perhaps someone has a solution.

  Best regards

  Ingo

  Hello Ingo

  Last days, we read more similar reports on the various problems after installing SP3. As far as I know that Toshiba has faced similar problems after SP2 release and updates were offered. The fact is that SP3 has a negative influence on the different drivers and Toshiba has designed tools and utilities.

  For now, Toshiba has not any update and we need to see what will happen in the future. I always use SP2 and do not have similar problems on my laptop satellite.

  Or you can live with it and wait for update or restore BONES on time earlier and remove SP3.
  I see no solution at the moment.

• Latest version of Skype for Windows stops unexpectedly

  This is not the Preview version of Skype, but is the oldest Skype for Windows, version 7.28.80.101. I'm a (paying) happy user of Skype for the past 7 years, and it is pretty central to my work as a tester of computer software. I noticed the new behavior very recently where Skype just stop with any kind of message that I saw, and if I do not realize and restart the application, the people I work with who just thinks I'm offline. No idea what could be causing this or how to fix it?

  I guess that the problem is caused by the strange interaction between app overview of Skype and Skype for Windows desktop:

  https://community.Skype.com/T5/Windows-desktop-client/Skype-just-closed-itself-uncommanded/m-p/44833...

  Even if you are not actively using the preview application, its context process, SkypeHost.exe, runs in the background and may periodically close the Skype desktop.

  I did not see Skype on my computer and can not verify this behavior, but this problem has been reported elsewhere.

• Changing the language of the INTERFACE - using the latest version of Skype on Windows Update 8.1

  I was using Skype to chat this AM and keep Skype running. When I looked again the language of the INTERFACE was changed to a (including fonts), that I do not recognise. So I can't use the menus... and begins at the cursor to the right instead of to the left in the chat window.
  
  I reinstalled Skype with English as the language of choice. Skype has always with the same "non-English language. I do not use that language for any other purpose on this laptop.

  https://support.Skype.com/en/FAQ/FA73/how-do-i-change-the-language-used-by-Skype-for-Windows-desktop

  Be aware that in the case of right-left (Hebrew, Arabic) languages, the Tools menu is the next right.

• Skype on Windows 10 Tablet - keyboard on screen problem

  Hello
  
  I want to emphasize, that Skype on Windows 10 tablet in the current state is unfortunately completely useless. As a modern version of Skype has been depreciated in favor of the version of office (http://blogs.skype.com/2015/06/11/a-more-efficient-skype-experience-for-your-pc/), desktop version is the only way to go. However, it seems that nobody has tested this version on Windows 10 Tablet, because apparently nobody has seen, because of differences in behavior of the screen keyboard, message textbox, as well as the latest messages are covered by this keyboard.
  
  Change in behavior of keyboard (moored at dock/no) has no effect.
  
  Please fix this as soon as possible, because in the current state, the use of Skype on Tablet is basically not possible.
  
  See the attachment for more details.
  Thank you very much!

  

  OK, now the 7.10.0.101 version is the first step... the chat window goes up when typing... but not always, when magnified the tray it does not, try / tap it several times.

• New Skype for Windows Office, everyone is in offline mode.

  Even the Echo / Sound Test Service is offline, so with this version of Skype, I can't communicate with someone able to see if it works.

  When I installed the Skype for Windows desktop (which forced me to do today), Skype said that 'Skype Home' is not available. Related to everyone is offline? I need Skype home?

  Is your login on Skype online status? The status icon next to your name should be green with a white check mark inside.
