  Hi all

  The solution is very simple and exactly what I suspected. More than a month, I changed my cell phone number and updated my contact information in Microsoft Account. However, it takes them for a month or two to make the changes. Meanwhile user recalls only each time that he or she connects that coordinates are changed (white screen with a warning). On each device using Windows or Android, I was able to use Skype. But it wasn't the case with Ubuntu. Skype, launch, tried desperately to display "white screen" I mentioned, but its ' functionality is limited, so it kept resetting and return to the login screen. I don't know what the problem - Java, Silverlight or what else, but they have to fix it. Microsoft Account is far behind Google, or even Facebook, because of cases like this. Apparently, this isn't a single account for all as in the case of Google or FB.

  IT'S THE SOLUTION, THANKS! ;-)

• Sign in to Skype without using a microsoft account

  I seconded on behalf of Microsoft, but there doesn't seem to be an option to SAVE the setting. So, whenever I'm back in Skype via the Microsoft account. What I did is to get a new laptop. I won't connect to Skype via Microsoft account because my account Skype has my contacts, etc., and also when someone calls me the Skype account with Microsoft is not ringing or connect, it goes to my phone.

• New computer wants me to combine Skype with the Microsoft account to connect. How should I not do this?

  I have an account to both personal and professional for Skype. I use the business account more. In the process of setting up the account company on my new computer, I asked for the connection information for the Microsoft account. After that, he wants now all merge so I sign in Skyp with connection to Microsoft. I don't want to do that. My business account is actually "owned" by my employer and I want to be able to make sure that everything is separate. How can I work around by using Microsoft information in Skype?

  Thanks for your help!

  The only case where Microsoft Account is an absolute requirement is when dealing with the modern app from Skype (metro) for Windows 8/8.1.

  Desktop version, that can be installed on computers Windows 8.1 requires Microsoft account.

• 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.

• Connect microsoft account is missing

  I'm using window xp professional 32-bit installs any version even the latest version also can not connect as a microsoft account because can not choose the microsoft account.

  

  I do not expect that this is related to your "login screen" issue, but you may as well be updated NVIDIA GeForce GT 720 M driver. The currently installed version is quite old.

• Skype crashes at startup with a microsoft account please.

  My Skype crashes at startup, if I auto sign with my microsoft account, then I start again and it tells me to connect so I click the button "Microsoft Account" for the signature and it says "Cannot display Page" as if I was on Internet Explorer and I had no internet. Although I can connect with a normal Skype account.

  List of things I've tried:

  Uninstalling and reinstalling

  Restart my PC of course

  Go to a previous version

  Please help, thanks.

  Try again to reset all Internet Explorer settings.

  I'm able to connect with my MS on this forum but Skype for Windows Desktop said: No.

  Why?

  Exact message I get:

  I am able to connect to this forum and other accounts using my LiveID. Skype is the one and only it does not work. Also able to connect to Skype on my Windows Phone. Only the Windows desktop does not work. Any ideas?

  Since it is not possible to connect with my Microsoft Account on "Desktop Skype" I uninstalled Skype both machines.
