Hi , I want the old version of skype again. Please help me. I really appreciate that. Sorry for my bad English. This thread is locked. You can follow the question or vote as helpful, but you cannot reply to this thread. I have the same question 3. How to Uninstall and Reinstall Skype on your Computer. Where to download an old version of Skype. Skype on the Go! It also utilizes file storage. So it is better to uninstall the new version. Go to search engines. The Skype site does not keep the old version anymore.
Skype is a client that allows you to make phone calls through your computer. Their tag line used to be: "The whole world can talk for free. Please be careful! See this discussion page for more information.
After downloading and installing Skype, you may immediately call other Skype users for free or use their pay Call-to-Phone system to call phones directly over VoIP. One note that may be of use to OldVersion. Skype 2. That's a lot. Fortunately, it can be compacted again with the handy standalone tool SpeedyFox. It works well regarding that I can log in again now Im using 6.
Also not sure if its relevant but i did not see any mention of this in the guide but after i logged in on the supported 7 version, then closed that fully and opened my 6. I am not sure if that is normal. I posted above a screencast: how-to-run-older-versions-of-skype-for-windows. As you can see using version 6. I do not tested version 6. However please note that old versions do not support group chats.
I am planning to publish tomorrow a script for creating a portable copy of any Skype version. Among other things, this will allow you to run old versions. So stay tuned. Just a heads up: At least here, MS has reduced the forced-logout interval to about every 24 hours. And this happens without warning, so any unsent chat text is lost. This does mean, however, that the "offline message" feature is gone.
That is, if you send a message to someone and then go offline yourself, the person won't receive the message until you go online again -- like the way it was several years ago.
Not good. I think the party is pretty much over. Not sure, about other versions, but my test account on 6. The issue some of us are seeing means, as another person also pointed out, that your status will not necessarily be correct as seen by other people, and also that there's no offline messaging the "spinning circles" are a hint of that.
Messages ARE delivered once both parties are on at the same time, the way things used to be for everyone using Skype more than about 3 or 4 years ago. If the above hasn't hit you yet, is it possibly because you're not using the old version for long periods of time but rather just occasionally for testing? Just a guess, for all I know you use it 24x7.
Therefore, when I am saying it I am referring to the main purpose of article — to make video calls using old version. Besides this, I can send and receive messages on 1-on-1 chats. I am running simultaneously at least two Skype accounts and one of them is 6. I know that the announcement blog post last month mentioned "cloud architecture" as one of the reasons for deprecating clients earlier than 7.
It wasn't until last week that MS changed something on the server side to put the bullet in later 6. I've been using 6. It was all there. Until they took it away I'm guessing, arbitrarily, though possibly for a good reason that they just haven't revealed yet last week.
Offline messaging, for me, was the most important Skype feature of the last half decade. It seems I have to be careful what I am writing. When I wrote that old versions do not support cloud features, I meant the tested version. Only now I realized that we are talking about two different versions.
Sorry for that. Moreover, version 7. I have no idea why 7. Did Skype remove the functionality on the server end of older versions? I am able to log into 6. I am unsure which but it either is having issues sending messages to offline users and those not reading messages OR it is just having trouble displaying properly that messages sent.
Thank you for an interesting idea! Strictly followed your instructions, but unfortunately, skype 7 just wouldn't start. It logs in but it after a few seconds after it appears online and loads contacts status it kicks me off again saying "sorry please log in again".
Coincidently or not I at the same time had modified a setting in my skype preferences to not display user pictures in contacts, restoring config. Im not sure if skype totally cut it server end now or if it is just on my computer only from some issue on my computer. Can anyone confirm this?
It may or may not be time sensitive so it might not have hit some others yet. Before this happened the morning before at AM or so it kicked me off with the same message but i was able to log back in again back then. I suspect it just may be possible to log in using an old version possibly may need to be freshly installed if other newer versions were installed over it so all the parts are full compatible with themselves and have full functionality of some old versions if you while skype is closed use a program to modify the Skype.
I do not know what program would be safe to use to do this as in not a virus or spyware and I do not know if it would work or if skype would suspect youre using an unoficial skype version and lock down your account or something but this is just paranoia on my part.
I also do not know if you have to do the same to the dll files to modify their version number. Im also not sure if you also have to modify the MD5 number as well somehow. I have no idea how they check your version. A quick search and I did find some programs that claim to or seem like they might be able to modify version numbers of exe's and dll's.
I dont know programming or anything so I can only guess how to do this and i have no luck finding any skype users who did this. I dont know if it's open source or not or fully free or not or if it's safe or not so approach with caution.
I'm not sure if there is a rule on this blog about posting links to software but I hope that wont be an issue since i provide warning of my lack of experience with such programs. This is just two I found although there is more but the second seems like it would be easier to use possibly as it has less features seemingly. If anyone knows a good free open source program better than these do tell. I hope it works and i hope if anyone tries this it wont cause any problems for them.
Id hate for my suggestion to lead to any damage out of my own ignorance. Not sure about other features, but I am still able to log in to 6. I think you should start all over again. Concerning to crack Skype, you need a disassembler for example try a look at OllyDbg , but be aware that according to Skype Terms: You may not and you agree not to:undertake, cause, permit or authorise the modification, creation of derivative works or improvements, translation, reverse engineering, decompiling, disassembling, decryption, emulation, hacking, discovery or attempted discovery of the source code or protocols of the Software or any part or features thereof except to the extent permitted by law.
Do you meant to send offline messages between old versions such as 6. If so, unfortunately this is not possible, because these versions do not support cloud features. Yes i mean that. I was install new skype, copy file config and i used this file with old skype and i could send offline messages.
I stil have this file but when i copy it to skype portable it not works. Thanks Admin, it worked for me. When Skyped forced us to update a few months ago, I wanted to find a way to still use the old skype, so I found a patched 5 version on YouTube, but it's appearance and layout were too old compared to the Skype I was using for many years, so this Skype 6.
Please read carefully the «installation» step first of all you should uninstall the previous version. Hi, i'm trying to use the skype 3. How do i go about it? Thanks for your ideas. Not sure, but try to run it using Windows XP compatibility mode.
As of today, the 6.
