Can FaceTime be used with Skype?

I'm a new user, I'm used to Skype and my folks use Skype, can anybody tell me if I can use FaceTime with Skype or how can I activate the camera to be used for Skype? Is that possible at all?
Thanks, G.

No... they are different apps

  • Can FaceTime be used with AppleTV AirPlay

    Is there a way to send the FaceTime image to my AppleTV so I can use the bigscreen TV instead of the iPad screen?

    Yes you can.  The other response are absolutely wrong about facetime not being able to mirror to Apple TV.  I just tried it and it worked perferctly, both from my iPad 2 and iPhone 4S.  I was thinking that it wouldn't since video cannot be mirrored to Apple TV, but all my other Apps works great with mirroring, so I was hoping facetime would work as well.  I tried it several times and it worked like a charm.  I now have three ways to use my large flat screen HDTV to do video chat.  One is to use facetime on iPad 2 or iPhone 4S along with Apple TV.  Second is to use Skype on iPad 2 or iPhone 4S with Apple TV.  And lastly, which has best video but audio is not as good because location of Logitech webcam is so far away.  This third way of video calling through a big flat screen tv is to use a Mac mini or any other apple computer that can be connected to your tv along with Logitech HD webcam to make video calls.  The first two ways have the best audio for the other party to hear you, since the iPad 2 and iPhone 4S is right in your hands, therefore the mic is only a foot or two away, but video from both devices is not as good as the Logitech C910 HD webcam.  As for audio from the person you are chating with, it sounds awesome for all three ways if you have your tv connected to a home theater system.  Hope this help answer your question.

  • Can FaceTime be used with iSight

    I have an iMac bought January 2010, which has a camera
    Can I use FaceTime with this and if so how do I go about installing it?

    Your Mac needs to be running Snow Leopard which makes Apple's App Store available to download and install FaceTime from.

  • Can facetime be used to communicate  with iChat?

    Can facetime be used to communicate with ichat or any similar (VOIP) application on a MAC?

    No. But Apple just release the Beta of FaceTime for the Mac. It requires Snow Leopard. I tried it and it works fine.

  • Can I assign subscriptions with Skype Manager?

    My company wants to implement Skype for cost reducing, but there is an important issue I couldn't find the answer for: can I assign subscriptions with Skype Manager? For example, I buy a 400-minutes subscription and assign this subscription for an user?
    If that is the case, can I take the subscription back from the user and give to someone else, or must I cancel it and buy a new one? And also, if an user is going to make 800 minutes in phone calls, in a land where there isn't a unlimited package, can I buy and assign him two 400 minutes subscriptions, or in fact as many subscriptions as I would like?
    The best solution for me would be to have subscriptions that I can assign to users when they need it, and if in a month they are going to use less minutes, I can take that subscription and give it to another user.
    Alternatively, I could have an account that many users would use, but at the same time and they would make calls at the same moment, and I don't know if Skype allows us to do this, both in computational terms as also in legal terms.
    Does anyone knows the answers to my questions or could give me a suggestion?
    Thank you for you time

    Assigning subscriptions with S.M. is very easy but unfortunately some countries are missing on the list. For example I need to assign a subscription for one of my users registered in SM, which allow make calls to cell phones to Ukraine at lower rates. It's not possible because there is no Ukraine on the drop down list. Could someone explain me why?

  • GroupLayout can only be used with one Container at a time

    Dear all,
    I am a beginner so please don't throw rocks at me...
    I have created two frames with NetBeans. One is the main frame (extends from JPanel) and the other frame I put it to be started when pressing a button from the main frame (the second frame extends from JFrame). Both frames are created using the designer in NetBeans, so the code for creating the GUI is automatically generated by NetBeans, so both frames use the same layout (GroupLayout).
    Here is the code of the button from the main frame to start the second one:
    private void manageCustomersActionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt) {                                                
            // TODO add your handling code here:
            CustomerGUI custGUI1=new CustomerGUI();//CustomerGUI is the second frame
            custGUI1.setVisible(true);
    }When I press this button from the main frame I get this runtime exception: Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: GroupLayout can only be used with one Container at a time. The second frame is not opened.
    How should I handle this?
    What I want to do: I want to have a main frame, from which I can start additional ones (the main frame must be always opened, while the additional ones can be closed after performing certain actions). I read a little about internal frames and I think this can be a solution, but I must edit the existing design...
    Thank you
    With respect,
    Don

    There are those that maintain that JFrame should never be extended. I am not convinced, but most cases where a JFrame is extended would be better coded as simply configuring the JFrame within the main(). GUI builders such as found in NetBeans seem to extend JFrame as a matter of course.I too am not rigorous or religious about this either, but try to adhere to this as a matter of practicality and convenience, I find that if I don't extend a JComponent but rather use composition rather than inheritance, it's much easier to use objects of my class when programming in Eclipse. For instance in Eclipse (and in most IDEs), if I type my object name and then a period, it will show all of the method's available for me to use on this object. If I subclass JPanel or JFrame, I'll see a gazillion methods most I don't want to see, and thus most are clutter. On the other hand if I use composition, I'll only see a small number of methods and these will be only the methods that I want to see and need to use.

  • Fedex can only be used with dreamweaver using metric, not pounds (lbs)

    Fedex can only be used with dreamweaver using metric, not pounds (lbs), evidently?
    This as per their tier 2 tech suport.
    They say I should just convert to metric, no joke!
    Any ideas would be greatly appreaciated?
    Also a warning to anyone thinking of using business catalyst for their site, sorry, their business.
    Their note to me:

        Thanks for contacting us Michael  
    Our engineering team has detected some problems when doing weight conversions (from the quantities entered in the interface to what’s used when making the API calls to FedEx) -
      He have added this to our internal bug tracker to be fixed for one of the future releases. 
        I realise that this might not be what you wanted to hear,but at this moment we do't have a workaround in order to send the
      dimensions in pounds and not in KG 
        Sorry for this inconvenience!
      Kind regards, 

    If you're in US it will be in pounds. If your site is set any other country
    in the rest of the world it will be metric. So BC or as you call it
    Dreamweaver will look at the site country, which you set when creating the

    hi i want to use find my mac but i got this massage (some configurations, such as software or hardware RAID,do not support a recovery partition and can't be used with find my mac)

  • Some configurations such as a software or hardware RAID do not support a recovery partition and can't be used with Find My Mac.

    I'm getting the following error message when attempting to invoke "Find My Mac"
    Some configurations such as a software or hardware RAID do not support a recovery partition and can't be used with Find My Mac.

    You have no recovery partition. This is a normal condition if your boot volume is a software RAID, or if you modified the partition table after running Boot Camp Assistant to create a Windows partition. Otherwise, you need to reinstall OS X in order to add a recovery partition.
    If you don't have a current backup, you need to back up before you do anything else.
    You have several options for reinstalling.
    1. If you have access to a local, unencrypted Time Machine backup volume, and if that volume has a backup of a Mac (not necessarily this one) that was running the same major version of OS X and did have a Recovery partition, then you can boot from the Time Machine volume into Recovery by holding down the option key at the startup chime. Encrypted Time Machine volumes are not bootable, nor are network backups.
    2. If your Mac shipped with OS X 10.7 or later preinstalled, or if it's one of the computers that can be upgraded to use OS X Internet Recovery, you may be able to netboot from an Apple server by holding down the key combination option-R  at the startup chime. Release the keys when you see a spinning globe.
     Note: You need an always-on Ethernet or Wi-Fi connection to the Internet to use Recovery. It won’t work with USB or PPPoE modems, or with proxy servers, or with networks that require a certificate for authentication. 
    3. Use Recovery Disk Assistant (RDA) on another Mac running the same major version of OS X as yours to create a bootable USB device. Boot your Mac from the device by holding down the option key at startup.Warning: All existing data on the USB device will be erased when you use RDA.
    Once you've booted into Recovery, the OS X Utilities screen will appear. Follow the prompts to reinstall OS X. You don't need to erase the boot volume, and you won't need your backup unless something goes wrong. If your Mac was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you’ll need the Apple ID and password you used to upgrade, so make a note of those before you begin.
    If none of the above choices is open to you, then you'll have to start over from an OS X 10.6.8 installation. There's no need to overwrite your existing boot volume; you can use an external drive. Install 10.6 from the DVD you originally used to upgrade, or that came with the machine. Run Software Update and install all available updates. Log into the App Store with the Apple ID you used to buy 10.7 or later, and download the installer. When you run it, be sure to choose the right drive to install on.
