Notice of Skype support termination
Jun. 27, 2016
Skype* has announced that starting in June they will no longer support Skype for TV.
*Skype Communications SARL, a division of Microsoft Corp.
The Skype app on the affected devices should still work, however some initial changes will be made as follows:
- ● Skype will no longer issue new Skype Names; users with existing Skype Names can continue to use those to log into the Skype app.
- ● Affected devices will not support the ability to change the password for Skype Names; if a password change is desired, that change will need to be made on another device.
For more information on the service changes, please visit the Skype website.
