Hi Administrator , i have encountered problem for windows xp Skype ver 7. Pls help!!! It says "Sorry, we couldn't connect you to Skype".
I guess I have to buy a new PC since mine can't be upgraded. RIP Skype Classic You will always receive a Skype message stating ' You will need to update your OS to Windows 7 or higher to continue using Skype on the same device.
As an technical support guy, info from this site saved me from headache for years, now time for redemption: For those who still need to use winxp willingly or unwillingly, open chrome, install the chrome extention, switch user agent to edge and windows, and you will able to login web skype now.
Thank you for sharing. Another way is to change user agent via command line. Stay in touch. I plan to publish detailed instructions soon.
That solution works like a charm! I'm using the agent switcher mentioned below - it allows you to change the agent only on particular domain, so I've entered web. Unfortunately, Microsoft has disabled Skype 7 and users cannot use it anymore on any operating systems.
I have a problem with the new skype for web which I have thanks to yourselves. Had to look for something new as I still use windows XP SP3 32 bit and microsoft god bless them have decided that I should not be able to use skype 7 any more.
I am signing on using my old skype ident and password. This new skype works perfectly well in audio only BUT for video whenever some one tries to call me on video and I press the video icon top right of the new skype screen and without colour they are cut off. The same happens when I call them.
I have just been through your software requirements and I think I meet them all although I am unsure about the Windows Installer 4. I am using the latest possible Chrome browser for Windows XP which is the one you specify. What am I doing wrong please? I have since downloaded level 4. Could THAT have been the problem? All clean? Many thanks! Thank you for your comment. Indeed, on Chrome it is saved as "web. By the way, this file is a regular shortcut pointing to Chrome. Many thanks, I understand, and sorry but I'm not very experienced, but I can solve!
I can perfectly see my webcam try online, but with users it doesn't work I have not tried Firefox I managed to get this working on a customers computer tonight. At that time double click on the new Skype link, it'll open a microsoft account page, if you're logged in you'll be able to click through, otherwise log in and boom, it'll be working.
In theory there may be another way around this however I am unsure it would work and there is a possibility if Microsoft detects it you may get your account banned for terms violation I assume or at least blocked out again as they patch such a loophole if it exists.
Basically you just have to modify the version the version number information to match a supported version of Skype. There are several programs available several for free that claim they can modify version numbers and other program information even in closed source software. I should note if this works do not distribute this modified version or you will get Microsoft after you.
Another option is running the Linux version of Skype using a virtual machine or something like Cooperative Linux. The problem is that the new Skype uses a different protocol, so I think, first of all, the problem is that the old versions do not support new technologies. For example, so even if we were able to log in using Skype 6, we could not join group chats or transfer files. That may be true for my first alternative though my second method mention is viable for people who just want to keep using Skype and their unsupported operating system but find the web version not with enough features they need.
Sorry for any confusion. Sorry sir, I thought you meant the old version in both cases. In this case, this is a really good point. At least because users can install Linux on old computers that cannot be upgraded to newer versions of Windows. I haven't heard many praise Windows Vista though. Of course if their hardware is very lacking in specs to where a VM or Co-Linux is not an option they may have to do a dual boot with Linux and their XP or Vista instead which of course would be a hassle having to reboot every time they want to use one OS or the other.
Any links? Does it exist in Italian? And which version of Linux do you recommend? I'm not very experienced but I always manage to fix everything I'm not experienced with virtual machines or Windows XP. I had trouble finding results because usually it's XP in a virtual machine people do rather than a virtual machine with XP as the host but so far out of what I found I think VMware Workstation can work on XP at least certain versions of the VM can.
This is a handy comparability check their site has. VirtualBox, up until very recent version 6, works in Windows XP. Unlike VMware, VirtualBox is free. Hi, does it work anymore? I am opening WebSkype through the shortcut in Chrome but it says "browser not supporting".
Yes, it works. Just make sure to close Chrome before launching the new shortcut. I ask the users of skype web that use Win xp sp3 with Chrome browser if the Webcam works?? Thanks [Updated 17 apr at ] Sorry I forgot to mention that I use it "web. Video calls are working only for web-to-web calls. That is, it won't work if your friend don't use Skype for Web.
Ahhhhh ok!!!! Godd TKS! Chrome problem or is it normal that using Skaip web you block everything. I faced the same issue on Firefox, but not on Chrome. I do not know what the problem is, but try to create a new Chrome profile and use it to access Skype.
If it doesn't help, try to install the Maxthon browser. Hi, I installed Google Chrome Starting the shortcut link opens the newly installed browser. The Skype login screen appears fine and I can give in my username and password. Then a title appears: Logging into Skype, please be patient, finally I get to a white browser screen. I can send the source if you need it. Thank you! Are you sure that you are using Chrome I mean, do you see it on the "About" section?
By the way, some users say that Skype for Web works properly on Maxthon 5. Chan you check it please? Yes, I am absolutely sure. I opened Help, About box and typed the version from there. I will check Maxthon as well tomorrow and will write back soon. In this case I do not know what could be the problem. Anyway, a nice try would be checking various user agents of Chrome 73 for different operating systems. As for Maxthon, I'll be waiting for good news only ;.
Hi, Now I got back and had some time to continue the previous test. Before installing Maxthon I removed all cookies for Skype. Now I can use Skype with Vista again. Thank you for the guide! I'm glad to hear good news from you. You're welcome!
Another plus information that could cause my problem and I forgot to mention. I've restarted the browser after the cache and cookie deletions and since then everything is fine.
Maybe this will be useful for someone else too. Well, I'm pretty sure that this solved your problem. Thank you for sharing. Hi Falcon, May I know that what version of Maxthon that you have got? I have tried to install it but it says that is not compactible with my 32 bit vista.. I have the last version of Chrome and Firefox for vista too but none of them work Thanks, Lina. Slimjet is my favourite browser because it has got a dozen built-in properties that Chrome has not. So you don't need Maxthon.
As for Firefox: just forget it and uninstall any versions It was fast and useable 10 years ago. Good luck! I tried Maxton: it worked for a few times as a skype from the web, but then it started to come out as entry: Unsupported browser.
Thanks for the VM information
