Skype on Ubuntu 12.04 4.2.0.11: cannot open a session

I have Skype on Ubuntu 12.04 4.2.0.11. As I performed the Ubuntu Ubuntu 12.04 11.10 system update I've never used Skype. Before I made the update Skype was working properly (I used more than once!).

Now, I tried for days to connect to Skype but my credentials are not recognized.

I thought that there was a problem with my credentials (very unlikely: I remembered them by heart), that's why I asked the customer support of Skype for my credential re - configure.

Now I just re-set all my credentials, but the problem persists.

There is a problem with this version of Skype, a problem with this version of Ubuntu, or rather certain agreements between Skype and Linux has changed?

Thank you

You must update your version of Skype. You can use the version 4.3 or newer.

    The program large fonts configuration remains unclear and still isn't a way to set a font, but I don't know that italic bold cannot be choice of Skype, it must be a side effect of some other configuration on my computer. Can someone me referring all what to watch?

    Thank you

    I answer to myself because I found the solution.

    In Skype:

    Options, general, choose Style: Cleanlooks, apply. Exit Skype.

    In the Ubuntu desktop:

    Press ALT - F2 and type in qt4-qtconfig, click on run (it's probably in a menu, but I don't know where to look for it)

    In the appearance tab, select Style GUI: Cleanlooks

    You see a preview of the Cleanlooks Windows. This does not change the style of your office, but only for applications that use Cleanlooks.

    Click file, save.

    Run Skype. She should use the font that you saw in the preview.

  • Cannot open links in Skype, WLM or saved HTML (Firefox will not answer)

    "I can't open links in conversation Windows Skype in a Firefox session running in the background, it flashes only the window borders. If I close Firefox and click on the Firefox links automatically open the link, but not everything with a session running in the background. Strange thing while having clicked on the link and began a new session of Firefox, it opens the legs as usual while clicking on the following links several times but close Firefox and restart and then click on the links in the Skype window, it does not. I have to bring up the context menu, then choose Copy address. »

    I see there is no answer to the problem that guy had and I have the same problem - links of Skype and Windows live mail will not open and there is more - FF does not open the html files that are saved on the pc, even you, I just saved 'em, but when I click on em nothing happens and when I right click and choose open with FF nothing happening.

    He worked for two weeks without problem and suddenly today links just do Skype flash exactly as in christianhbergs description and in windows live mail, they become purple but firefox does not react.

    as soon as I make IE as my default - links work, but not with firefox.

    So I guess that the problem is in firefox (no Skype or WLM in Win8)

    (running Win8 and FF25.0)

    And none of the solutions that you have given us in the work of https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/961242#answer-497345 .

    I found the problem you!

    I don't usually turn off the pc, but I Hibernate it!

    While I had this problem, I decided to restart my pc.

    The problem disappeared after a reboot - so I suppose the FF problem was somehow linked with use of the memory to the hibernation.

    Thank you for your answers
    anyway.

  • Had to reinstall Windows and now Skype won't let me open a session.

    So the SSD, I had 10 installed windows on seems to be dead (the PC crashed and then wouldn't start on the correct hard drive. The hard drive also would not put in evidence in the BIOS any SATA port I used), then I reinstalled since on a backup drive (after cleaning it of course). Everything else works fine, 0 connection problems, got all my main programs installed and works again. But it seems that no matter what I try, the Skype app won't let me log on.

    This is the latest version, and I'm running IE11. I tried to reinstall, turn off the firewall, remove the file "shared.xml", removal of temporary internet files on IE... None of this fixed it. I also tried to create a new account from microsoft and it still wouldn't let me connect.

    Other ideas are appreciated.

    Thanks for your reply, but it turns out that all I had to do was to reset my router. I feel so stupid, it's usually one of the first things I do when troubleshooting connection problems - it just crossed your mind for any reason any. There was no error in any case, he just said that he does not recognize the sign in details, as it would if you enter wrong password.
