I am trying to install and use Skype 4.3 in ubuntu 14.04 (I upgraded both recently). I kept gettign the "skype can't connect" error so I followed the instructions here to the letter:

How to install Skype 4.3?

This works for the first skype use, but when I quit skype and run it again, I get the same (4.2) screen with the same "skype can't connect" error.

I can bypass the error by deleting my .Skype directory, but I have to do this prior to every single skype run.

Any ideas what could be causing this? I don't understand why a 4.2 error message window would show up anymore. I purged 4.2 using apt-get autoremove and apt-get purge and so forth.

I had the same problem and solve change the skype version to last version that time: 4.2.0.13-1_i386.deb , in fact by repository is more precise but I guess that have a error in any list of repo. Unfortunately now have other problem with the sound, a noise in line, maybe the pulse audio, so... I wait answers too ;)
