Address that works with skype

When I try to call flag comes up and. Say can not open wrong address

Hi there...
I have the Jabra BT125 and I have a new Mac Book Pro on it's way. The headset is actually something I already had for my cell phone. And now I'm hoping to use it for skype as well. What I think I lack is the Blue Tooth adapter. I was looking for one that I can power via USB rather than the ones you have to charge. I also have a logitech V320 optical mouse. Do you think the blue tooth adapter can run both the mouse and the headset as not to take up too many USB ports at the same time? (I envision my computer eventually resembling that guy from He11 Raiser! with all the pins sticking out of it) Anyway... Jabra says the BT125 supports Bluetooth version 2. I'm not sure if the mouse is similar or not... (I'm actually really new to all this lingo and I just assume the wireless capability of the mouse is bluetooth... The specs say it's a "microreceiver") Any comments, experiences or suggestions are really appreciated... thanks!!!

Webcams that work with Skype 6.3

Can anywone tell me of a webcam that DOES work with Skype 6.3?
I would prefer a Logitec - I have the Logitec Quikcam Pro HD which it seems does NOT work with 6.3.
Thanks in anticipation

I definitely believe you, all mine are recognized and function. Due to "ground up" modifications to video, some compatibility was lost on versions 6.2 and above. If you want your camera to operate, you can either try release 6.5 that came out today or downgrade to 6.1. One of those should work.

Compatible Headphones with Mac that work with skype

Can anyone please tell me which headphones work best with the Mac and Skype? I should also tell you that my operating system is OSX10.4.11, my model is a powerbook 4,1, and my processor is 600 MHZ Power PC G3....

Hi antonisk,
As I mentioned above, the Logitech K400 is superb for the job if you can purchase one. It is light and really easy to use with the phone and LiveDock.
I think Sony Ericsson should be more specific on the website about what works with their LiveDock. It should give at least a few compatible keyboards in the description and not just wait for people to buy the product and then spend time and money finding what will work with it.
They make great costly videos showing the customer that the LiveDock can be connected to a keyboard, mouse and games controller, but don't tell us which ones to go out and buy, if you want to take up this option.
I would have thought with these options being the main reason why the LiveDock was manufactured, that they would have spent a little time finding which devices actually work with it and not just waiting for people like myself to have to trawl the internet and worst still buy products that aren't compatible.

I purchased Label Printer Pro 7, but it does not work. It crashes. Please recommend an address/shipping label program that works with Avery labels. Thanks.

I purchased Label Printer Pro 7, but it does not work. It crashes. I press print, and the program closes. I press save, and the program closes. I press print and the program closes. I have had an email exchange with Pabel Printer Pro 7, but the best they could offer was to go to Utilities and click on fixed permssions. I have done that several times, and the program still doesn't work.
Can you please recommend an address.shipping label program that works with Avery labels that I can purchase, and that is also simple to use?
Thanks,
Paula

Apple ID has my old email address. It will not allow me to change the address and will not accept my password or ID questions. I recently upgraded to OSX Yosemite 10.10.1. I also have an Apple ID that works with iTunes and would like to keep it as my primary.

To change the iCloud ID on your devices you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted (if using iOS 7), then sign back in with your current ID.
If you don't know the password for your old ID, or if it isn't accepted, you will have to temporarily recreate it in order to delete the existing account. To do this, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll. When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

Thunderbolt camera stopped working with Skype and Google Hangouts

Some time ago my built in camera on the thunderbolt stopped working with Skype. If I activate the camera the green light turns on but the screen either remains black or it shows that spinning loading incon forever. The green light stays on indicating the camera is active no matter what I do with skype even if I press the button to deactivate the camera. The green light remains on until you completely kill skype. Rebooting, reinstalling skype, etc. does nothing.
Today I disocvered I have the same thing with Google hangouts. All the way around exactly the same and the green light won't turn off until you kill the web browser. Same thing with FireFox or Safari. Also it no longer works on Viber either.
It's quite infuriating.
I am not sure if this has anything to do with this awful virus like program called "CamTwist" that I installed once and had a very difficult time removing or not.
Reinstalling OS X from scratch is not an option. Too much work, too many programs to reinstall and reconfigure etc.
How can I get my camera back?
The camera works just fine with Photobooth and facetime.
Thanks.

1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
The test works on OS X 10.7 ("Lion") and later. I don't recommend running it on older versions of OS X. It will do no harm, but it won't do much good either.
Don't be put off by the complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. As I wrote above, it changes nothing. It doesn't send or receive any data on the network. All it does is to generate a human-readable report on the state of the computer. That report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can act on it yourself without disclosing the contents to me or anyone else.
You should be wondering whether you can believe me, and whether it's safe to run a program at the behest of a stranger. In general, no, it's not safe and I don't encourage it.
In this case, however, there are a couple of ways for you to decide whether the program is safe without having to trust me. First, you can read it. Unlike an application that you download and click to run, it's transparent, so anyone with the necessary skill can verify what it does.
You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of it have been posted on this website thousands of times over a period of years. The site is hosted by Apple, which does not allow it to be used to distribute harmful software. Any one of the millions of registered users could have read the script and raised the alarm if it was harmful. Then I would not be here now and you would not be reading this message. See, for example, this discussion.
Nevertheless, if you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
4. Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
☞ Paste into the window of another application.
☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
5. Try to test under conditions that reproduce the problem, as far as possible. For example, if the computer is sometimes, but not always, slow, run the test during a slowdown.
You may have started up in "safe" mode. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
6. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
7. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
8. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
9. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "Syntax error" or "Event not found," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
10. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
11. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, a series of lines will appear in the Terminal window like this:
[Process started]
        Part 1 of 8 done at … sec
        Part 8 of 8 done at … sec
        The test results are on the Clipboard.
        Please close this window.
[Process completed]
The intervals between parts won't be exactly equal, but they give a rough indication of progress. The total number of parts may be different from what's shown here.
Wait for the final message "Process completed" to appear. If you don't see it within about ten minutes, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, press the key combination control-C or command-period to stop it and go to the next step. You'll have incomplete results, but still something.
12. When the test is complete, or if you stopped it because it was taking too long, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
13. When you post the results, you might see an error message on the web page: "You have included content in your post that is not permitted," or "You are not authorized to post." That's a bug in the forum software. Please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
14. This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I may not agree with them.

How may I change the email address that goes with ...

Hi,
How may I change the email address that goes with my subscription?
When I set up my original subscription, it was through an former employer.
When I just bought some Skype credits, the confirmation page indicated that the verification email was to be sent to my old work email address.
Thank You.

Built-in iSight will not work with Skype

I have a new Macbook Pro that I purchased about a month ago, running OS
X 10.5.8.
I've been using Skype to video chat, and at first everything was working
very well. In the middle of a chat, however, the video stopped working
altogether.
If I go to the video tab in Skype preferences, the camera will then turn
on and I can see myself, but once I go back to the call, the camera
won't turn on (the green light on my camera stays off too). In video
preferences I have the following options checked: Enable Skype Video,
Automatically receive video from: People in my Contact list, and Show
that I have video to: People in my contact list. I have also tried to
enable the "Start my video automatically" option but to no avail. The
video camera it is set to use is the Built-in iSight.
I have tried reinstalling skype, including deleting all the preference
files on the computer, but that did not help.
The video works fine in other applications such as Photobooth, iMovie and Google Chat. I have browsed through the many Skype forum posts about similar issues, as well as Apple forums and have tried every fix that people have suggested including resetting my SMC, updating all my applications, trying Skype under different user accounts, reinstalling Quicktime, reinstalling Skype (as outlined in the Uninstall guide for mac), repairing permissions, etc.
I am pretty sure that this problem began directly after I switched to
SCREEN SHARING during a video chat. When I switched back to Video, it
did not work.
No other applications that use my camera are running.
I am assuming that since it originally worked with Skype, and since I had not touched ANY of the options in Skype and have done nothing other than try screen sharing, and since I did a complete Skype reinstall includeing preferences, that the problem should NOT be with the Skype program itself, but rather something that was modified in the operating system configuration during screen sharing.
The only other thing I can think of trying is to reinstall iSight, although I haven't been able to figure out how to do that, or to reinstall my entire operating system, which I don't see as an acceptable solution.
I am using Skype Version 2.8.0.659
Any help getting this fixed would be greatly appreciated.
I have posted a similar topic in the Skype forums along with a screen shot of my Skype preferences window: http://forum.skype.com/index.php?showtopic=422861
From my online reading in both the Apple and Skype forums, it seems as though this is a relatively common problem. If I can find a solution from either Skype or Apple, I will post the solution in both of the forums.
Update: I just upgraded my OS to 10.6.1 and my camera started working again. Then, I was in a chat and I lost my internet connection. As soon as I got back online I restarted the conversation and the camera doesn't work again. This is getting to be ridiculous.
Thank you for your time,
rystheguy

Hi,
It is years since I tried Skype. (Probably in Tiger)
I use Little Snitch, a utility that can report the ports and IPS any App is trying to contact.
For Video chats it seems the Skype process spreads the load across many "Servers" wanting to connect to about 3 doz (I got fed up with clicking the accept Button)
For this reason I do not think it is very secure.
I only today read a post that said Skype had Screen Sharing.
iChat 5 makes it clear (well if you run /Applications/iChat.app/Contents/MacOS/iChat -errorLogLevel 7 In Terminal) that there is a "camera" setting for the Desktop which may be a forthcoming thing or is about produce the Screen Sharing pic. (i.e iChat lists two "cameras" in the log produced by the above Terminal command).
iChat 4 and 5 use the Apple Remote Desktop engine to do Screen Share as does the Screen Sharing App invoked from the Finders Go Menu > Go to Server and using VNC:// as the Link type.
I would have no idea what protocol Skype are using.
They created their own Video protocols and similar with SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) for Connecting to POTS (Plain Old Telephone Systems) Phones in disregard for Internationally agreed Standards.
I doubt that it makes use of the ARD engine. It will probably be a reinvention of the wheel again.
I took a look around the Skype web site but could not find any mention of how they are doing Screen Sharing.
I would guess it is similar to the iUSBCam method of Desktop as Video Feed.
Do the Console or System Log in Console (Applications/Utilities) have any messages about this ?

Can't get Headphone and Mic to work with Skype

Hello, I have a 3 year old Macbook Pro and I am running OS 10.8.3. I am trying to get my USB headphone and mic to work with Skype but I'm not having any success. I have tried several different headphones with the same result. I finally phoned Skype support and they told me that there are some registry settings that are corrupted and that they could install the proper ones on my MBP for $149.99. I told them I did not want to spend that kind of money but I am curious if anybody else is having that issue and if anybody has a solution. Is it true that my registry values could be corrupted causing this issue. If I start up Parallels and open Skype in Windows 7 I have no issues whatsoever using the headphone. It works every time but I cannot get it to work on the Mac platform. I would appreciate any advice anybody might have. Many thanks in advance.
Dan

I am trying to get my USB headphone and mic to work with Skype but I'm not having any success. I have tried several different headphones with the same result.
What are the system requirements of your headphones & mics? It's possible they are not compatible w/Macs and/or your current OS system.

Webcam that works on skype out-of-the-box ???

hello,
I know that this is an issue that has been discussed many times, but i would be appreciate if someone can propose me a webcam which work with skype out-of-the box.
At the moment i have a Logitech Communicate STX but i 've the green horizontal lines although i've tried the LD_PRELOAD trick.
Which webcams are you using with skype ?

I don't remember exactly how it was, and since I run Skype from a 32bit directory I'm not 100% sure if this is applicable. For some reason I couldn't get a one-line command to work, but if creating the above mentioned executable file, which I gave the name skype_video, it works perfectly well when I run schroot -p skype_video. Otherwise it always complained about not finding that v4l1compat.so file.
Test to create a file in for example /usr/bin/ like mine and see if it works. In my case the camera works excellent, and gives very good video quality for the price.

Isight camera not working with skype on Win 7 Bootcamp

So I was happily running windows 7 (need it for work) on my MACBook (mid 2009) with Bootcamp 3.2 until a couple of weeks ago.
I updated something (either Skype or Bootcamp, etc) and all of a sudden, my iSight camera takes like 4-5 seconds to initialize, and the frame rates on the camera with Skype are like 1 new grab every 10-15 seconds.
Anyone run into this before?
Thanks,
Wes

I know this is an older thread BUT I've been dealing with this issue for the past four days and this is what I found... (perhaps if it helps another person....)
Assuming you've already checked while on a Skype video call that your camera isn't turned off...
FIRSTLY
Open Skype Preferences to verify your settings.
(prob in your downloads, applications folder or on your desktop)
Then at the top your screen, next to the Apple Icon you should see Skype:
Select Skype, then scroll down to Preferences. Verify settings.
(Mine, for example, under the "Calls" Tab was set to autoanswer so I can check on
my dogs while away and tell them to get off the couch!)
SECONDLY
Make sure another apple app isn't hijacking your camera.
Open Finder, Devices, Applications, then look for IChat
Once open, Select iChat and scroll down to preferences.
(For my settings, I don't use IChat SO I changed the "default IM application" to Skype,
under General settings tab.)
Select the green Audio/Video Tab
and uncheck "Open IChat when external camera is on"
THIRDLY
I verified that all other Apps using the camera weren't open. My insight camera worked
when I opened Photobooth, IChat, Facetime and ICamSource (a monitoring program)
- just didn't work with Skype!
From Desktop, go to Apple Icon, select "Force Quit Finder", then scroll down and
close everything that uses the camera.
FINALLY
From Desktop, go to Apple Icon and select Restart (pic same as above).
Upon restarting, once the screen blanks out hold down the following keys all at once:
Option, Command and P and R keys.
For me, I heard the computer "restart song" chime twice before letting go.
(PRAM and NVRAM settings)

ISight Camera not working with Skype

Hi,
2 days ago my kids were skyping and everything was fine, then I turned off my iMac and the next day Skype wouldn't use my iSight Camera. In the settings it shows that it is using the iSight Camera but not picture! I made an update from skype but it didnt help. I restarted my computer, reinstalled skype nothing.
I am not a big pro with computers, so if you have an explanation, PLEASE be detailed in your explanation.
Thanks
Lucy

I know this is an older thread BUT I've been dealing with this issue for the past four days and this is what I found... (perhaps if it helps another person....)
Assuming you've already checked while on a Skype video call that your camera isn't turned off...
FIRSTLY
Open Skype Preferences to verify your settings.
(prob in your downloads, applications folder or on your desktop)
Then at the top your screen, next to the Apple Icon you should see Skype:
Select Skype, then scroll down to Preferences. Verify settings.
(Mine, for example, under the "Calls" Tab was set to autoanswer so I can check on
my dogs while away and tell them to get off the couch!)
SECONDLY
Make sure another apple app isn't hijacking your camera.
Open Finder, Devices, Applications, then look for IChat
Once open, Select iChat and scroll down to preferences.
(For my settings, I don't use IChat SO I changed the "default IM application" to Skype,
under General settings tab.)
Select the green Audio/Video Tab
and uncheck "Open IChat when external camera is on"

HT1338 why is the video not working with skype on this os

why is the video not working with skype on this os

Try this:
Quit Skype.
Click on the desktop so Finder is active. Hold the option key down and click on Go in the menu bar.
In the drop down, select Library.
Open the Library folder and scroll down to Preferences.
In that folder, there is a file called com.skype.skype.plist. Trash that file.
Now try Skype.

Webcam on Ideapad does not work with Skype

Hey, when I try to get my webcam to work with skype in the settings -> options- there are no webcams displayed in the drop down menu for cameras. My webcam works fine with other apps and I've updated the drivers. :-) anybody that can help?

Good day and welcome to the community.
If you could provide a bit more information about your system (model, OS), that might be helpful for other members to offer appropriate advice.
Cheers.
