I cannot make outgoing cell calls because Skype takes over. How to fix?

I have an Android Samsung run 2.3. Whenever I try to make an outgoing call on my cell phone, it brings up skype and says that I don't have enough money to make a call. I NEVER want to make outgoing calls with skype. How do I turn this off and set it back to using my cell carrier to make the call? This is absolutely horrible that Skype has taking over my phone. Do I have to uninstall it?

Skype Refusing to Make a Video Call

I have $9.80 credit, but Skype tells me I "need to get Skype Credit" to call a number I've called many times in the past. What's the deal with that?

You cannot make 3G video calls via your wireless carrier on iPhone.
You can only make Internet Video Calls.
For some reason Apple Doesn't has that feature.

Why can I not make video calls using Skype?

I'm really baffled. I have a month old MacBook Air. I use Skype daily for work and personal business. Never had a problem until this evening. I went to make a video call and Skype was not linked with the camera - there was no option to make a video call and when I went into Preferences, it said I had no camera. I then used FaceTime - person I was calling also had FaceTime, so it wasn't an issue - but I've now spent an hour trying to solved the problem, including logging in and out of Skype, closing the app and reinstalling, all to no avail. The camera functions fine with FT and other apps - why will it not sync up with Skype after it's worked fine? Anyone have a clue? Thanks in advance.

FIX:
1. You need Time Machine
2. Go to folder /Library/CoreMediaIO/Plug-Ins/DAL/
3. Copy AppleCamera.plugin to good place (usb memory stick is the best place).
4. Go to Time machine in date that skype work fine.
5. Change AppleCamera.plugin with file from Time Machine
6. Restart system, Now skype need to work with camera.

Then all you need is an external compatible webcam with your Mac Mini. Skype is currently compatible with your Mac and operating system

No 3g\wifi - Repair needed. iPhone cannot make or receive calls.

Just started getting this message on an IPAD:
"Repair needed. iPhone cannot make or receive calls. Contact Apple at www.apple.com/service."
3g and wifi is not working. The ipad has only been connected to itunes once when the device was set up so I'm worried about losing everything.
I've looked online a bit and found a bunch of users with this issue on their iphone but couldn't find many ipad users with the issue. It sounds like the only way to make it work is to "restore" it or get a new one. "restore" means factory reset? Will I be able to back up everything first?
I may try upgrading the device to ios 4 first.
Anyone else encounter this issue and know how to fix it?

Strangely it started working on it's own after a few days. Then I connected it to itunes, created a backup, and upgraded to 3.22. Of course it quit working on vacation then started working again when I was on my way home. I guess I better bring my laptop next time in case it acts up again. Too bad ipad and iphones are tied down and require a PC.

Is there a way to make a video call from my iPhone 4 to a non apple phone? Also is it possible to transfer pics using bluetooth from iPhone to other company mobiles? Its a great phone but sometimes I feel struck inside it.

You'd need an app like Skype to video call with other phones.
Data transfer is not supported via bluetooth and iphone to iphone is not supported at all.

How to Make A Video Call (without FaceTime) from iPhone 4?

I would like to make a video call from my iPhone 4 just like the way all the 3G devices nowadays do (not using the FaceTime, Fring, Tango or Skype).
I want to make video calls to other smartphones using the below facility provided by my telecom service provider :
http://www.rcom.co.in/Rcom/personal/3G/HTML/VideoCalling.html
The above feature charges a nominal amount for the video calls, and does not require any data to make the call, and they are also quite good in quality.
Also, when my friend calls me using this feature from his Nokia C7, he gets the error "The mobile phone you are trying to make a video call to, does not support it"
For the record, I'm using iOS 4.2.1.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

After the skype 5 headache which many users are experiencing, I just found "" vtok "" in apples app store.
It supports VIDEO and CALL over wifi AND 3G !! It does work fantastic and is FREE.
BUT you would have to set up a free "Google mail" address to get it to work.
It's painless and is a great option.
Amen

Making video calls on skype

hi,I'm unable to make video calls on skype, i have a trust 17405 webcam, the trust drivers for this cam cause my pc to crash, without the drivers i'm still able to get a video image on trusts diagnostic tool on their webpage.i'm using a pentium 3, running win xp sp 3, the skype version is 7.5.0.102can someone please give me some help resolving this issue?

Even if your camera works outside Skype it will not work in Skype. This is because a processor requiring the SSE2 instruction set (Pentium 4 compatible or above) is required to use video in any Skype releases since Feb 2014. Since releases of Skype that old have been retried you will not be able to use video at all using that computer.
