How to prevent this from happening is well hidden. Wow !!! My good old Skype that works is back.ĭuring my tour of the New Skype site I found several people who downloaded prior versions and said that an update to the New Skype was forced on them. After 22 days I finally found this site and have downloaded version 7.40.0.151. People in the Community, including lots of IT guys, are more than upset.įor a short time one was able to go to the update page, and click on a download arrow - and select Skype Classic - but that option disappeared several days ago. "Report a problem" does nothing to resolve this issue - I tried at least 6 times. The Virtual Assistant appears to have only several issues it can respond to - and this is not one of them. From my experience, it appears that Skype does not want to recognize that this as an issue because they are doing nothing about it, including NOT telling you that this cannot be done. I went all over Skype Help and Community for 22 days (and invested many hours) only to discover that this issue may be a "new feature" of Microsoft Skype i.e., it just cannot be done. (Note these "non-buddy" contacts are not set up to respond to "INVITES".) Older versions of Skype can create these contacts by using the menu bar/Contacts/Add Contact/Save a Phone number. If you want to establish a contact name for a business contact, a doctor, or the bank - you can use the dial pad and phone the contact, but you CANNOT add the contact name and phone number to your contact list. The program will only create a contact name if you 'invite" the contact to be on Skype.
