Audio not working during Skype call

Last night I was in a group call with some people and my audio worked perfectly fine, when I got home from work today and tried to get in a call none of the chat audio works. Before anyone says anything my drivers are current and I have the correct audio outputs selected, all the sounds except the call audio work. I have tried reupdating drivers, running dxdiag.exe, and even trying headphones and switching audio devices.

Audio not working with Skype

after downloading skype from its website, the microphone or the incoming volume isnt working on skype calls. i tried calling my friends and nothing... i couldnt hear them, they couldnt hear me

I have the same issue. We were approved for PIC federation yesterday. I ran through the Microsoft provisioning guide and removed the existing Skype federated provider "Remove-CsPublicProvider -Identity skype" and added it again "New-CsPublicProvider
-Identity Skype -ProxyFqdn federation.messenger.msn.com -IconUrl "https://images.edge.messenger.live.com/Messenger_16x16.png" -VerificationLevel 2 -Enabled 1". I added my hotmail.com email address which had long since been linked to my Skype account.
I signed out of Lync and then back in. I can see the new Skype icon in the Add a contact outside your organisation wizard. It allowed me to add the contact but it appears offline. If I try to IM it tells me that the contact is offline.
However I can place an audio call from Skype to Lync and from Lync to Skype with no issues. I guess I will wait a little while (as many are suggesting) and see if that fixes it. I'm at a loss as to why else it wouldn't work.

IChat audio not working during video chats

For the last month or so I have been unable to get normal audio connections during iChat video chats.
The person on the other end can hear me, but the audio I hear from them pops in and out and frequently seems muted. I thought it was their computer at first, but now the problem seems to be happening to me chatting with different people that are on different computers. It's also not an internet problem at my home, because the problem occurs consistently when I am at different locations, in different cities.
It's not my mute button, and I've checked my sound preferences in system preferences and everything looks okay. This seems to be associated with a system software upgrade and I'd love to know how to fix it. Running OS 10.6.4 on a MacBook Pro 17".
I read some of the other discussions on this topic and couldn't find a solution, or anything I could easily understand how to fix.
Thanks for any help!

Hi,
iChat 5 uses your whole Internet speed.
This is different to iChat 4 and Earlier that was capped by what was set in System Preferences > Quicktime > Streaming (Also not there in Snow Leopard).
If you and your Buddy are on vastly different Internet speed iChat will try to match the lowest Upload speed at both end.
After that Buffering tries to smooth out the natural variances in Connection speed you have.
This is where the issue mostly lies.
iChat has always tended to drop Audio before any picture issue show up.
As the Max setting in Quicktime was 1.5Mbps a 5% or even 10% variance was handled by iChat.
However in iChat 5 you may be on a 20Mbs+ service both Up and down and 5% of this is more than can be handled by the iChat Buffering.
What you can do is Limit iChat in the iChat Menu > Preferences > Video/Audio section > Bandwidth Limit.
Set it to 500kbps as a start.
Get your Buddy to do the same no matter what version they have.
If this is successful then try the 1Mb setting.
You can change during a chat.
If you have the Connection Doctor Open (Video Menu) you can watch the Bit rates change as the Buffering smooths this out.
Get you Buddy to Increase his Bandwidth Limit once the Bit rate has smoothed out.
Essentially repeat for each increase until you find what speed you can manage predictably and works with the most amount of Buddies.
NOTES:
Don't try below 200kbps. The real world lower Limit is 100kbps and you need some for any variances if someone only has 128kbps upload.
384Kbps is the lower limit for a 4 way Video chat with you as Host, so 500kbps is more than enough. You will only see figures in the Connection Doctor above this if both ends are on a very fast service. (Higher speeds as Host does stop 3rd and 4th Buddies causing a quality drop off).
Things that can impinge on your Connection Speed are other computers such as one doing a Download of something. You are left with a smaller Portion (Bandwidth).
Other apps also use some Bandwidth which is why iChat refers to the control as Bandwidth Limit - allowing enough for other apps.

I have recently upgraded my iMac Intel G5 iSight (iMac5,1) to OS 10.6.8 and now the internal mic does not work with skype or facebook. I can here static when playing back clips. Do I need to update firmware or reload old system parts. I have zapped PRAM. The blue indicator in system audio panel will appear for a second as I slide the bar for internal mic but then it disappears. Is there a fix?

The sound seems very faint but can here static on playback.

Did you set the Skype Audio/Video preferences to use the camera?

Isight not working in Skype

Not only is my brand new Macbook Pro 17 inch iSight camera previewing me in vibrant magenta (go figure) it's not working in Skype. The audio is working but now video, just my picture is showing. I need help as to why my camera isn't previewing in real colors nor is it working in Skype. HELP!!!

It's possible that the camera is defective, but first I would try "resetting" it by zapping the parameter RAM by holding down the Command-Option-p-r keys at startup until you hear the startup chime ring three times.
In Skype, you need to be sure you are using the latest Skype Beta software for Mac, version 2.0.0.3:

If you like, you can try connecting to me with iChat at [email protected] or with Skype at jawestonskype or jawestonskype2.

Speakers not working for Skype only on Windows 8.1

My speakers or headphones are not working for Skype desktop but work fine for any music or videos or other programms. Any help to resolve it? in Tools>Options>Audio Settings> headphones does not show up. Everything was working fine but it just happend a day before., i havent installed any program that could make problem.

This is very strange because, as you are saying this happened without any change to any software on your computer. I suggest the following:
1. To help the team analyze the issue, provide logs as described in this link under Skype for Windows Desktop and attach it to your post.
2. As an interim solution you can try using a virtual audio device that will be a middle man between skype and your physical audio device.

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.

Laptop left Speaker audio not working

Sir,
I have dv-5 1102 tu model laptop, in that left speaker audio not working. But, in headphones & Speakers have no problem in both left & right audio.
Kindly do the needful

Hey @KKVK ,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand your left speaker is not working on your dv5 notebook.
If the headphones are working it would tell us the sound card is fine. The same properties are applied to the speakers and the headphones in your audio control settings.
You could try a system restore to before the issue started to make sure it's not something in the operating system. To perform a system restore see the following guide: Using Microsoft System Restore (Windows 8) or Using Microsoft System Restore (Windows 7).
If this fails I would suggest contacting HP Phone Support to send the notebook for service. Please call our technical support at 800-474-6836. If you live outside the US/Canada Region, please click the following link to get the support number for your region: Phone Assist Worldwide.
Thanks!
