Weird Skype problem...

[cully]

My Skype connection is fine with everybody in my contact list..except one person.

He says that while HIS connection with everybody else is fine he has a problem..but only with me.

The problem is that while I can see and hear him he can only hear me..he can see me for a moment or two then the picture freezes. He says this happens only with me and I know it only happens with him!

Does anybody have an explanation? How do we crack it? Help info on Skype and elsewhere doesn't mention other people having this glitch.

HELP!

Could he be winding you up?

fist thing is always to make sure you are both using the latest version of skype.

Not always the case ...
Latest Sype versions are shutting down Windows .. and other problems ...

Thanks all who answered...it's still a mystery!

[AlBags]

To us too.
You haven't said version used or tried .. nor what you have tried to remedy it.

Albags, being a total non techy I'm still bouncing the problem off experienced people hoping somebody's going to tell me to "just press this button and the problem is solved" rather than "follow these 23 really complicated steps and maybe it'll work"! We are both using the same, up to date, version of Skype.

That's not one of those probl;ems.
On the other thread, the gentleman with the problems is clearly an elderly grandfather. He did it, and now it works.

Point taken but the problem seems to have gone today when I Skyped my brother!
Previously, I had gone to the www and tried +skype "picture freezing" and found a number of forums discussing this very topic. A bewildering array of suggestions followed by replies saying "no, that doesn't work/tried that and it made matters worse etc".
Hey Ho..
