Skype notification issue

Solved
nicousky -  
Hello, I'm writing because I have a problem with Skype. This issue only affects one of my contacts, but it's one of the ones I talk to the most. So, when the contact sends me a message, I no longer get any sound or notification indicating that I've received the instant message; I have to return to the software to see my messages, and often it's already too late, I've missed the person. Is there a command that I might have accidentally disabled?
Thank you in advance

Configuration: Windows XP / Safari 537.1

    you need to do: /alertsoff<space>
    and then: /alertson<space>

    And it should work! ;)

      What command? In the messages? Because I tried and it didn't work. I'm on a tablet and when I look I see a bell and it's crossed out.

    Hello

    I found the solution! The problem was exactly the same for me; it was the contact I talked to the most, etc.

    You just need to type the command "/alertson" (without the "" of course) and it will work without any issues! :D

      Sorry, I forgot to mention, you need to write this command in the person's chat ;)

        Here is the solution, you need to type /alertsoff with a space

        Example: /alertsoff <Space> and click on enter.

        Finally :p

          Hello everyone, I have a much simpler way to solve your problem. You go to the conversation of the person concerned. For example, I have chatted with M.Spoke, for whom I can't get sound notifications (and others). Then, go to the "conversation" tab on the right of "contacts"; then select "Notification settings...".
          Finally, check "Alert me" and confirm.

          There you go ;)

          Hi! I have exactly the same problem as you, and the only solution I've found is to keep my iPod next to me, the Skype app open, and take a look at "messages" every 30 seconds... And yet I've thoroughly checked the settings!

            Yes, that's what I do with my phone, I don't see where this problem could come from..

          Good evening,
          I have the same issue, no sound since I typed the command /alertsoff
          and when I type /alertson again it doesn't work :/.

          Have you found a solution please thank you?

          Sincerely,
