Skype not closing in Windows 7
Hi, Before I take myself off to the Funny Farm, can anyone confirm that the latest version of Skype 4.2 will not close or exit in Windows 7 either 32bit or 64 bit? Is there any solution? Ireluctantly ran Skype inVista compatibility mode to get around this problem. Thanks, Peter To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: pc-audio-unsubscr...@pc-audio.org
Re: Skype not closing in Windows 7
You know, I'm having the same problem with Skype. I can't get it to close in Windows 7. I thought it was because I'm new to Skype. I'm sorry you're having the same problem, but on the other hand, I have to admit to being a little relieved as well. For what it's worth, I'm running Windows 7 64 bit.

RE: Skype not closing in Windows 7
Nolan, There is a work around for this if you want to do it. First close down Skype. Navigate to the skype.exe file under your program files folder and bring up the properties for it. Go under the compatibility tab and check the compatibility mode box and set the OS to Vista and click ok. Now your Skype window will close out like you are used to and won't be in the tab order any longer. I did this with no ill effects that I could notice and seems to work fine.

OGG or Ug
Hi everyone, I had an ug; lee thing happen to me witch, I'm hoping has a simple solution. I recently downloaded the sound recording program QWS to try and use it for a recording project, for which the manual for it is in an OGG format. Is there an easy way to convert the ogg file into another accessible format? I'm also wondering if I might be able to play it on my ol Bookport.

I can vouch for this, as I did it about six months ago. And it seems you don't have to redo it when you upgrade Skype.

Re: Skype not closing in Windows 7
Might I recommend a program called Skype Talking? It uses keystrokes to do its work, rather than bringing up an interface. I open and close Skype with this program, and you can make other changes in a quicker and more straightforward way. The program is free from http://code.google.com/p/skypetalking/ For the problem you describe, you'll want to set the options of Skype Talking so that when you start and close the program, it will shut down Skype. I just use control shift alt Q to quit both programs at once. I've even gone so far as to delete the desktop shortcut for Skype, and I just use the shortcut for Skype Talking. If you read the documentation, you'll get all of the control shift alt commands that the program uses. It's wonderful. Enjoy.

Re: Skype not closing in Windows 7
Hi Peter, Pardon me but what I think u meant was putting skype in the system tray while u are sign in right ? and if u need to bring skype back to the foreground, u would just call it from the system tray, just like on windows xp and vista? If so, its fairly simple. just go to the skype options, under advance, tab till u hear, keep skype in the taskbar while I'm signed in. its check by default, just uncheck it, tab to safe, and you are done. hope it helps.
