Skype app is missing

Separated from this thread.

I installed Skype, but there is no icon in the app section.  When I search for it the computer does recognize it as installed or even existing, so I can't uninstall and start again.  Any suggestions?

Hi Miller,

Thanks for posting your query on the Microsoft Community.

As you mentioned your computer Windows 8.1 is unable to find Skype App even after installation.

This might have caused due to some system conflicts.

I need some information.

  1. Did you change your computer before this problem?
  2. Did you see the pop-up box stating that Skype is installed completely?
  3. You have activated a proxy connection to connect to the internet on the computer?
  4. Y at - it Antivirus security software installed on your computer?

Try the steps.

Step 1:

Try to run the convenience store Apps. This tool can automatically identify and fix problems with the applications.

See the link below.

Step 2:

Why can't find or install the application on the Windows Store?

I suggest you check out the link to verify this problem:

http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-8/why-find-install-app-Windows-store

I also suggest that you check, are able to see the application that you installed in the store.

I hope this helps. Please let us know the results. We will be happy to help you further.

  • MAC: can connect through the Skype Web site, but not through the Skype APP itself?

    I guess that the SAME password should work for the TWO the Skype Web site and the Skype APP. However, if the website sign - it works very well, the Skype APP has a msg: "Skype cannot connect." I'm using Version 6.3.0.602 on an iMac running the latest software of Yosemite. Solutions? What I am doing wrong? (P.S. I hear, there is a version 7 for Mac, but when I go to the site to download the "most recent" version, I get the above mentioned 6.3xxx.

    OK, I 'solved' myself. I downloaded a "dmg" on the site yesterday (7.2 v), but when I started to drag the 7.2 app in my apps folder, he "warned" in ERROR that I was running a later version on the computer. So, I did not install 7.2 yesterday.

    Today, I checked the version on the computer 6.3xxx vs the downloaded 7.2, and of course the 7.2 has been later. Ignore the message warning and dragged to the app folder and it logs how.

  • Windows 8.1 RT Skype app crashes after sending a file

    A friend tried to send me a file. I received a notification on the lockscreen. When I open Skype he went to the window of my friend. I tried to click on the file to receive it, but nothing worked. After a few seconds, Skype has minimized at bottom. I went to my Win 7 and got the file machine. Unfortunately, after that I could not discuss with this firend on my Surface. Whenever I received a msg from him and open Skype I could not answer, and the window is reduced after a few seconds. I ran some tests with another user and it turns out he gets not only minimized, it also loses the Internet connection. I uninstalled the app, restarted the Surface and reinstalled. Now my friend is "unlocked", I can discuss with him but when I try to send or receive a file Skype app crashes (reduced, lost connection). Newspapers to look like this:

    The failing application name: wwahost.exe, version: 6.3.9431.0, time stamp: 0x51bcd714

  • Skype app on my new computer laptop with windows 8 does not properly

    I have following questions: 1. The Skype app is not always visible (earlier (in widows 7), he was part of the task bar and I could see if he had any message 2) When I click on open it does not open for long before, it was always on (part of startup) 3. Of course, the interface is not as convenient as the last of them. Can I get the previous version of Skype with app version for windows 8.

    You can simply install the desktop version 'normal' using this msi installer for the currently latest version of Skype 6.3.0.107:

  • Photos edited in Photos App is missing after upgrade to MacOS Sierra

    After updating to Mac OS Sierra, all my versions published of my photos is missing.

    Updated to:

    MacOS (10.12) Sierra

    App photos (Version 2.0 (445.1.15))

    It is said:

    -Update of El Capitan Sierra.

    -When the update, I started App Photos and update the library (260 GB).

    -A took the Photos App in the meantime round.

    -After all the thumbnails update was missing, but the pictures would be accessible by clicking on them.

    -Photos App must rebuild now all the thumbnails, but the photos I edited is still missing and even can not be seen by clicking on it (like the non-edited).

    -The missing files are a .jpeg and raw (.nef) from Nikon files.

    Have you tried:

    -Existing photo editing works

    -Edit photos (previous edition) missing persons, sometimes shows the missing picture, but it is not always a new tile.

    Any suggestions of how to make the pictures to update modified pictures?

    Did you turn on your mac to remove duplicates or similar cleaning applications?  Some cleaning tools are not safe to use.

    How do you change the photo in question? She has been published with adjustments to Photos or have you used an extension of photo editing?

    -Edit photos (previous edition) missing persons, sometimes shows the missing picture, but it is not always a new tile.

    Have you tried to take pictures with missing tiles to the original version in the control panel?

    And pictures can be exported from Photos or you get an error message?

    You and your wife have separated Apple ID, right?  If not, do this (start) using separate identifiers immediately.
