Can I make calls from my mobile using Skype?

Sorry if I'm being dim, but I can't figure out how to make a call from my mobile with my new Skype account. 
Can I do it? If so, how?
Do I need a special 'phone or will any mobile do?  
Many thanks
Kate

  • In iOS 7 you can still make calls from the locked screen. Just swipe the missed call numbers to the right. Is this a bug?

    How is it a security breach? You're free to turn off lock screen notifications for the phone app so that no one can do that.... even if they can, they can only call the number that called you... nothing else. (well, except for 900 or whatever the emergency services number is where you are, but that's required by law).

    Hi,

    Go to settings - General - Date & Time - switch off the "Set Automatically" option and adjust the time zone manually.
    I hope it works for you.

  • Siri Can't make calls from iphone 5 version 7.1.2

    Whenever I ask Siri to make a call it says sorry "Sorry, (my name), I can't make that call to (person I want to call) using this number" why is that? Enabled location service for Siri and it still wont work.

    Hi Ayumi_sm,
    If you are having issues with your iPhone being unable to make calls or access your Contacts application, you may want to try some things to troubleshoot.
    First, quit all running applications and test again -
    iOS: Force an app to close
    Next, I would try restarting the iPhone -
    Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
    If the issue is still present, you may want to restore the iPhone as a new device -
    iOS: How to back up your data and set up your device as a new device
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

  • Can I make calls from my Lumia phone using my lapt...

    I've been hunting around but can't find a conclusive answer to this. I have a laptop (Windows 8.1)  with the Broadcom BCM20702 chip and a Lumia 1320 phone (8.1). They're connected via Bluetooth (and USB)
    Is there any software/method that will allow me to make and receive calls utilising my laptop?
    In the 'old days' this would eb done by a phone card in a computer and appropriate dialling software but I can't see a way to replicate this.

    hi mate, AFAIK this can't be done and never heard of anyone doing it recently. sorry mate.

  • Can I make calls from foreign countries with my 5S without doing anything to specifically enable that capability?

    I'm travelling to Peru. I have a 5s with ATT service. Can I just land in Lima and phone home, or do I need to set something up with att or enable something on the phone in order to use it in Peru?

    Skype! Duh! I never think of that. Thanks! And yes, found the ATT business. Mostly don't have to do a thing with them unless I want to save money and buy minutes ahead of time.
    THanks again.

    Strange that a 10-12 year old dumb phone significantly out perfromed the 4S with a marginal signal is little disquieting. 
    Not really... that ancient EDGE only phone will stop working as AT&T sunsets their EDGE network over the next few years.
    Some phones are simply better at picking up weak signals than others.

    Since last Tuesday a new update for Skype is available, version 4.7. You can download the latest update for Skype for Android in the Play Store. 
    With Skype 4.7 for Android, we are introducing aggressive battery savings that will allow to leave Skype running without noticeably affecting battery life. 
    This version also includes the following fixes:
    Workaround for the KitKat bug which caused a runaway process when the camera was synced in the background.
    Fix for audio and video calling on tablets that do not have Bluetooth.
    Now lists your Windows Live Messenger contacts in the Skype (default) view, not just the All contacts view.
    Could you please verify if this version solves the issue you are encountering? Please share your feedback.
