Skype not working

Hey,

Can anyone help me....

I have downloaded FlyakiteOSX onto my PC and it is great, but...

When i load up Skype it went let me look at the contactds window. I logs in fine, but then when i double click on it to load it up and talk to someone it just moves to and fro between the taskbar at the top and the RK launcher at the bottom. Can anyone tell me what the problem may be and or how i can get skype working again??

Thanx

Matt

Does this still happen if you shut down RK Launcher? If it doesn't, then this is an RK issue...

It still doesnt it when the RL launcher is closesd.

When you clci on it in the taskbar it sort of looks like its maximising it but then doesnt open out.

Have you or anyone else got anymore suggestions?

thanx for your help.

Well, i have now managed to fix the problem.....

What i did was completely unistalled Skype and then FlyakiteOSX 3.5 in that order. Then i reinstalled Flyakite and then Skype and it now works fine.

Try the same and i hope that you have equal success.

Regards

i have the same problem of skype not showing on the desktop.

i tried uninstalling flyakite and skype several times in different orders but it didnt help.

I had the same problem, here's the solution:

Close skype if its running

open windows explorer and go to

C:Documents and SettingsUsernameApplication DataSkype

and delete shared.xml

now go to

C:Documents and SettingsUsernameApplication DataSkypeSkypename

and delete config.xml

Don't worry about these files, skype will create them the next time you open it.

Open skype and it should work perfectly!

Spoke too soon, The problem seems to have reoccured. ANyidea how to get skype working permanently with flyakite?

#452478

You might want to try a different form of emulation for your computer other than fly-a-kite such as windowblinds or just use msstyles if the problems persists.

Also, Try the latest Skype 3.1 http://www.skype.com/download/
