Random people add me on Skype

• People randomly continue to add me on Skype?

  Very well, so in the past a few people randomly weeks were adding me on Skype, almost every day I receive from 1 to 4 contact requests. They are usually women of Africa (or that is what explains their bio) they certainly aren't bots because they react to my insults, and I'm sure I want to regonize a bot when I see one. The conversation usually goes like this:

  Random person: Hey

  Me: Hi

  No one at random: how are you doing?

  Me: Why did you add me and how do you find my Skype?

  Random person: I'm new here and I'm trying to make friends

  And then, he'll just at the point where I get tired and start to insult. I'm just curious, why is it happening? Someone's just dragging me?

  In short: the internet.
  
  The internet is perhaps one of the biggest technological advances of the 20th century; You can meet people everywhere in the world, do business in a level previously impossible and even buy Uranium on a popular online store.
  
  Unfortunately this also gives a tool for scanners because of the anonymity it provides and the relatively low chance of getting caught.
  
  If it is some time still before a computer passes the Turing test, it always people function scripts to multiple people at the same time.
  
  Commonly called 419 scams, (a reference to the Nigerian law that many scams come from this region), other people try to rip you off for money, validation, I had fraud to obtain your personal information, or trying to have you physically make you sing you expose.
  
  What is happening is simply your spam folder emails in real time; the best thing to do is not respond and just block them, (if you block someone they're NOT informed of this and he'll just look as if you were offline).
  
  Do not interact with these people and just block them.

• Remove people randomly 'people' and 'messenger' on Surface RT

  I just bought a Surface and it came Wednesday.  I have connected my account and import contacts.  Then when I'm went to contacts in my email, in the framework of the PPP 'people' and 'Messenger', all three were filled with hundreds of people randomly and I can't do anything about.  I can't navigate my own email contacts.  I have them unsynced because I could not find with all the added random contacts.  When I downloaded Skype, it does the same thing.  She added all these random my Skype contacts people so that now I can not even find the friends I have on Skype.  Is there a way to disable this flood random strangers that are added to my various contacts list?  The only thing I found is that I can remove them manually one at a time.  It would take hours and I have no way of knowing if more will finally be displayed because he appears randomly.  Any help would be appreciated as this is the main thing that I don't like the Surface so far.

  Hi Michael,

  Thank you for choosing Windows RT and for giving us the opportunity to help you.

  I understand that people were randomly added to the app 'people' and 'messenger '. I will try to help you with this.

  (1) may I know which account did you add outside Skype?
  (2) how many accounts have you added?

  To the main account, you can navigate on the Web site that you added to the persons approx. check if unknown contacts appear here. If yes you can delete these contacts, and then try adding the account with people app.

  Please come back with more information on the issue so that we can help you better.

• App people linking the bad Skype account?

  I put this question to the Skype support team, but they suggested that I come to Microsoft on this issue, I would be interested to know if anyone here can help.

  Now, I know, Skype will create an automatic for you account name when you sign in with a Microsoft account. I got my Skype account, I then linked with my Microsoft account, so the two are now linked. He says in the Skype for the desktop application and the application Skype for Windows 8 - but the app people for Windows 8 displays the name of automatic account, because I have given.

  I tried closing and restarting the app and I tried even restart my computer laptop, but for some reason some it does not display my account name Skype "good." only automatic account name. Should I be concerned about it? Accounts are always properly linked on the application of people? Would appreciate any advice with this, if I need to do anything.

  Here's how I think that I fixed it.  Firstly, restoring links manually to Outlook.com has not really helped because that had no link to my external Exchange account associations.  The restoring my phone links did not help because when the phone and computers are on, those who have been re-synchronization on the server corruption.  So I uninstalled apps from people/Mail/calendar/e-mail of all PC Windows 8 that was connected to my Microsoft ID, stop those is not necessary and closed on the second Windows Phone leaving only my 810 Lumia Nokia to be connected to the cloud Microsoft under my MS ID service

  THEN I crossed every contact on the phone and manually fixed links to separate all the people that have been incorrectly linked (sometimes up to 50 by contact), then manually by linking those that were actually the same person.  That took a while, but it seems to stick.  I know that the phone isn't what makes the corrupt linked contact database since it is then locked, no one can access the link information.

  Then once my contacts have all good on the phone, I booted up my tablet of Windows 8 and installed the Windows store people, Mail, calendar, messaging app.  After the opening of these applications, they have downloaded all the new information my accounts registered previously and properly linked contacts.

  Then I reinstalled the soft people, Mail, calendar, messaging on my 8 Windows Media Center (which is what I did a restore of the system on the other night).  He did NOT download the right contact linking information and started to give me the links randomly wrong once again!  So I quickly uninstalled these apps to stop synchronization.  Then I looked on my 810 Lumia again and fixed the small number of links contact who broke the glass 8 MCE.

  Back on the Windows MCE 8, I ran disk cleanup to remove all temporary files and restarted for good measure.  After that I tried to reinstall once again, people, Mail, calendar, messaging app that finally downloaded the right information links for my contacts!

• I continually receive an error message %appdata%\ upon receipt of updates or try to remove or add programs like Skype and itunes.

  Whenever I try to delete Skype or itunes from my computer, or receive updates for them, I get an error message from %APPDATA%\

  I received the same error message when I tried to add an external hard drive.

  How can I fix?

  I suspect the update of Yahoo. I had in the past with updates from Yahoo which damaged registry entries you mention. These Fix - its should take care of it if it happens again,

• How can I disable People and Places in Photos.app@iOS10?

  I frequently get photos under NDA contract, not allowing any electronic assessment content photo due to the protection of data. Thus our admin has stopped any update of iOS10, because the new Photos.app of iOS10 seems to have no switch to disable extraction faces to the 'People' file or folder locations "places".

  How can I disable these processes demons or can be sure no processing happens on photos?

  Thanks for your help maintain our aircraft delivered by Apple and avoid spending somewhere else!

  Analysis of face detection is automatic and cannot be disabled.

  Photos scans your library of photos for the faces of the people and adds faces more frequently found in the album of the people. You can assign names to the discoveries of Photos of people, add people appear less frequently, people mark as Favorites and discovers memories that contain specific people. The more photos you have, more the first scan takes.

  You can only hide the detected people and refrain from naming people.

  The album places creates collections of photos and videos based on the place where they were taken.

  This example uses the photos embedded GPS tags. You would have to strip the EXIF in the photos tbefore tags you import them to avoid this problem.

• SKype connect with facebook for android

  Hi all

  I opened a Skype account on my mac with my facebook account.

  I want to access my account on my android Galaxy S3 device, but there is no option to connect with facebook.

  How can I knowe the username and password?

  Thank you

  If you do not have a Skype account and created via Facebook connect, then you are unable to sing in Skype on Android unfortunately. You need a Skype or a Microsoft account to connect.
  
  So in order to connect, you should unlink your Facebook account, as described here:
  https://support.Skype.com/en/FAQ/FA12211/how-do-i-unlink-my-Skype-and-Microsoft-or-Facebook-accounts
  
  Create a Skype account and then link your Facebook account to the existing Skype account. You can then use the Facebook Login details to log in to Mac and Skype account details to log in to Android. However, when you connect with account Skype, you don't see your friends on Facebook, you must add them as Skype contacts.

• Skype number

  Hi, I'm new to this thing of Skype sorry if I fall on mute.

  I have an Irish account and want to buy a number so people can call me. I want to receive calls mainly from the United Kingdom. Skype support says I have to bur a number... Certainly, it would be preferable to have a number of Irish that anyone can call using a number in the United Kingdom... people would think that I am in the United Kingdom.

  Any advice would be appreciated.

  Hello

  The idea of a number of Skype is that people can call you using a local number for them. If the people you are calling from the United Kingdom, it therefore makes sense for you to get a Skype number. You can even choose the area code possible most local is people who will call you. This article explains how much it costs for people to call your Skype number.

  You can have up to 10 numbers from Skype, so you can choose an Irish number (for people who call you from the Ireland) and a United Kingdom number if you wish.

  Hope that helps

• Problem with Skype, the House being blank

  I have problems with my home of Skype. It seems that it does not show a home page all I get is a blank page saying: my friends were not assets (photo to show what I mean). It was working fine until I had to reinstall windows, the other day and now I don't see what people have said about Skype as a status (and I don't want to connect to Facebook.) Any ideas how to solve this problem?

  Thanks for the help. for some reason, the site was on the red list and the reset helped settings.

• Question: How to avoid the problem-solvers Skype

  Hello, Skype, I had a quick question here.

  Because recently people solved my Skype account, knowing my IP and abuse by sending incessant attacks, I deleted some of my Skype accounts but I was wondering. Is there a way where you can avoid people to solve your Skype account only allowing direct connections to your contacts.

  I've been looking and lurking around the internet for advice, but they do not seem to help one thing here, and that's why I was wondering is how and what to do now. Because it's really bugging me that I am in need to delete accounts just because one doesn't know how to act normal.

  Hello

  You should NEVER let someone else know your IP address. The next time you need help, you should visit this Forum.

  TIME ZONE - US EAST. LOCATION - PHILADELPHIA, PA, USA.
  
  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:

• Merge with Hub Microsoft contacts Skype contacts!

  For the love of God, why Microsoft bought Skype if you are not able to work together to provide a common working contacts list?

  I use Skype on Windows (main PC), modern Windows (Tablet) and Windows Phone (Lumia) with a joint account of Microsoft. I take advantage of the integration of the people Hub.

  The hub is able to rightly see contacts Skype (filter list option).

  But Skype on all my devices only show a part of my contacts in the hub of the people. In fact, I see it seems an old version of my hub of people on Windows Phone list and none of them under Windows / Windows modern, even if I choose 'all' in all cases.

  So please, team of Skype, could you difficulty once the contacts list and why not merge all together with hub Microsoft People?

  What Skype is not supposed to be more integrated with Microsoft services? Then even better, offer your customers an option to get rid of your contact management and instead, use one Microsoft!

  Thanks for the answer, but in the meantime (and windows mobile 10 is not for tomorrow!), Skype is almost useless. I change a phone number in the hub of the people and expect to see change in Skype so that I can use Skype to call.

  But no, the Skype app still shows the old number.

  It used to be better, so I guess that a bug serious behind!

  Or how I've done wrong?

  EDIT: got it: need to refresh my hotmail Inbox in WP to force a synchronization of the hub of the people.

  To close Skype completely, wait a few seconds and then connect again.

  Now see the number published in Skype. Should be much smoother.

  I now have to change the settings of my account from microsoft on Windows Phone "based on my use' to 'as items happens', it might be useful...

• the two do you have Skype

  two people have to have Skype for video calls

  Skype may not be the only way you can do video calls if you are the same country. or the same State. As long as you have both had a camera and a microphone, it doesn't cost you a penny. My sister lives just next door, for the two of us video conferencing between them does not cost anything. We have all two unlimited plans. I always thought that Skype has been for foreigners to videoconference from abroad.
