Click to Call on WinXP, using IE8 in a SharePoint ...

I'm testing a SharePoint website in IE8 on WinXP. Skype is installed on the machine. When I am signed in to the SharePoint site, Skype is appending the phone numbers with it's Click to Call icon. But, once I sign out, the Click to Call icon is no longer displayed, nor is it in the code.
Has anyone else experienced this? If I am on Windows 7 and using IE9, the Click to Call icon is present in both authenticated and annonymous environments.
Thanks for your help,
R.J.

Hi, Mr_CM, and welcome to the Community,
A Skype Number does not work as you describe. Please allow me to clarify: a Skype Number is a fixed line telephone number. In either of the two scenarios, below, the call will be recognized as a Skype Number and the call will be routed to your Skype Account for you to answer the call (unless, of course, you have your Skype Number forwarded elsewhere, but that is not the subject of your question!).
Scenario 1:
Whether or not someone is using the Click-to-Call browser plug-in will not matter; the caller will be charged toll or long distance fees if applicable. If your Skype Number is a local call for the caller, then naturally they would not incur any call-related expenses. If working properly, Click-to-Call should recognize any telephone number.
Scenario 2:
If the caller places their call from or using their Skype account, seeing as a Skype Number is a land line number, they would need either to Buy Skype credit or purchase a Skype subscription in order to cover the cost of the call.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Elaine

"This document could not be checked out." SharePoint 2010 checkout action using IE8

I am setting up a two-server farm, and most everything works, except the checkout action for a document. This problem occurs in both site collections, one of which requires checkout, and the other does not.
Here are the options I've tried:
Snow Leopard, Firefox 3.0.1 - works
Snow Leopard, Safari - works
Win 2003, IE 7 - works
XP, Firefox - works
XP, IE 8 - "This document could not be checked out. You may not have permission to check out the document or it is already checked out or locked for editing by another user."
In IE8, I am able to open a document as read only then use the button presented by Word to check out the document. I cannot use that as a workaround, as not all users have a version of Office that will allow checkout in that way.
Checkin works fine. I need to resolve the checkout error.

I was having the same problem mentioned here. I noted that this problem only appears when I use the FQDN in the URL ex 'http://hostname.domain.com/default.aspx'. If I access the Sharepoint site using the URL 'http://hostname/default.aspx', then
I do not have any problems checking files in or out.
I ran into this same error pattern when trying to do a document edit (library is set to force a check out), or do a direct check out via the ribbon menu or item context menu. Oddly enough when we would use the 'Edit Properties' ribbon button (which forces
a check out) we did not get an error and the document's status would change to 'checked out'. Below are the two messages we would receive when trying to do a check out:
IE error message - "This document could not be checked out. You may not have permission to check out this document or it is already checked out or locked by another user." - Click OK
IE Error message - "The document could not be opened for editing. A Microsoft SharePoint Foundation compatible application could not be found to edit the document." - Click OK
After trying several different suggestions I realized that I wasn't having the problem when I was accessing the site locally via FQDN but only when I was using the Public Site URL (via https). Turns out we were getting the error because we did not have
an AAM currectly setup. Once I changed our AAM for the Internet zone with the Public URL value instead of the FQDN the error went away.
Hope this helps anyone else trying to track this down. Oh and this was SP2010 w/SP1 (Patch version 14.0.6106.5001) on Win2008 R2 with clients running both Win7 and WinXP using IE8.

How cal I get Skype click-to-call to install on Firefos 10

i JUST UPGRADED TO FIREFOX 10. As happens every time i upgrade, Firefox says it cannot install the add-on skype click-to-call. I used to be able to add it using tools, but now skype is not even listed there; something called SIP click-to-call is (beta).
Can anyone tell me how toget Skype click-to-call to once again work, or else advise me as to whether there are calling charges associated with the SIP feature and also how ewell it works..
Thanks.

Add-on compatibility are the responsibility of the Developer. All Add-on Developers are able to update/test their product before any major Firefox release, due to Mozilla releasing a Public Alpha/Beta of Firefox. This doesn't mean all app developers update before a Major release is made, which often prevents compatibility between add-on and browser.
Skype has announced that they have updated their "Click-To-Call" Add-on for Firefox10
*[http://blogs.skype.com/garage/2012/01/skype_click_to_call_supports_f_2.html Article: Skype Click-to-Call Update]
Make sure you have downloaded the most resent release of the Click-to-Call add-on from the Skype website.

Skype Click to Call for Firefox 7 Installation Nig...

All info as of Oct.08.
Hi Guys:
I would like to start by telling you that I'm newbie to this community as not a Skype fan user and haven't used the application since its June version 5.3. I didn't upgrade my Firefox browser on its due time either as rather use Internet Explorer most of the time. All these three are installed on a Windows XP Home SP3 system.
Due to some IE7 settings misconfiguration early this week, I decided to use FF6 again while restoring IE to defaults, which means that plugins and toolbars are disabled or uninstalled in the process. After reinstalation and updating Adobe Flash, Java, etc.. noticed that the Skype Toolbar was definetively lost (uninstalled) to IE.
FF Add-ons Manager was showing the Skype Plugin (still version 5.3) as disabled, not compatible and with no updates available. I then proceeded to upgrade FF to NB7 recently released 27-09, and then applied latest update 7.0.1 released 29-09, but no change to the Skype Plugin upon clicking on update all add-ons and plugins.
BTW, release notes for this FF update 7.0.1 states: "Fixed a rare issue where some users could find one or more of their add-ons hidden after a Firefox update"... making me more confused and to look deeper into FF support, but with no success. I also tried FF Add-on Compatibility Reporter to no avail.
Therefore, it was time to go to Skype and as I usually first learn about latest changes, opened on (blogs.skype.com/garage/windows/) first, to find that there were two releases (an update to V5.5.119 (which I did) and an upgrade to a new build 5.6) on the same date (29-09) of FF's update to fix "hidden add-ons" - what a coincidence to add confusion -.
In both versions' release notes you can read that changes include: "Updated Skype Click to Call browser plugins and the addition of support for Firefox 7"... but no further explanation. Sorry guys but it was at that moment when I learned about that "Click to Call" name (formerly known as Skype Web Toolbars) which totally different from what I was searching for, making me do some more clicks to search and understand the difference between the installers provided.
I believe (and suggest) that if in that blogpost 29-09 in respect of the 5.5 update, the poster (Raul Liive) would have included a link to the Click to Call support page, it would have been a lot more easier for Firefox users to update their Skype installation, even though, it is not true that Click to Call "is automatically installed in Mozilla Firefox" as suggested in that support page. It only installs in Internet Explorer. In order to also install it in Firefox and/or Chrome, you must download its installer from that page.
At least this was my experience which could be taken as a quick reference - Installation Troubleshooting Guide (Provided "AS IS" and subject to Mods' approval):
- Opened Skype 5.3 and clicked on the Updater to get version 5.5.119 installed.
- Opened IE7 and verified that new Click to Call 5.6.0.8312 was present in my toolbar.
- Opened FF7 and verified that old Skype Plugin 5.3 did not changed. Tried to update it again from within the application with no results.
- Opened Control Panel > Add or remove programs, and verified Skype 5.5.119 correctly shown, but Click to Call was not. There it was still showing "Skype Toolbars 5.3.7280".
- Closed all applications and proceded to remove Skype Toolbars from Control Panel.
- Restarted the system and opened CP, IE and FF to verify Skype Toolbars successfully removed.
- Optionally - ran CCleaner.
- Downloaded Click to Call Installer and ran it to install it in both, IE and FF, which done successfully.
- Opened CP to verify it was then showed correctly as "Skype Click to Call 5.6.0.8312".
- Opened FF to verify it now shows the plugin correctly as above with no imcompatibility
warnings. Made a test call successfully. Did same from IE.
*Notice: Please note that there is actually only one Click to Call installer (v5.6.0.8312) available at Skype.com, no matter what Skype (supported) version or browser (support for IE, FF and/or Chrome only) you are using. Also notice that when you open your browser for the first time after installing CtoC, a new Skype advertising tag will be opened... Don't worry, it will do it just once. A second advertising window will be opened after your Skype app opens when you make a call from your browser... at least it happened on my first test call and don't know if same for further calls (free account).
Sorry guys - long story - but hope this to be of any assistance to the community.
Cheers,
RickCP

The loading bar at the bottom of my browser has disappeared and I want to reinstall or reactivate it. How do I do this please and what is this bar called? I use the lastest version of Firefox 3.6.3 and Windows XP.

The loading bar at the bottom of my Firefox browser has suddenly disappeared and I want to reinstall or reactivate it. How do I do this please and what is this bar called? I use the latest version of Firefox 3.6.3 and Windows XP. I have many add ons and I usually automatically install the recommended updates. This problem has never happened before and switching my browser on and off again does not solve the issue.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== I am not sure why this suddenly happened. I think it may have been after my usual updates but I am not sure if that has anything to do with it at all.

Loading Bar? Maybe the URL/address bar where you type sites you want to go to (like www.google.com)? See Navigation Bar below. You may also need to see the first item "Can't see the Menu Bar".
'''Can't see the Menu Bar''' (File, Edit, View, History, Bookmarks, Tools, Help)?

Skype click to call is not working in Safari 6 wit...

My Skype click-to call is not working on Safari 6 with OS X 10.7.4. The number highlights, but when I click on the number, nothing happens. I do have Skype installed on the computer and it works fine. I am running Skype for the mac 5.8.0.1027 and skype extension for safari 2.1.0.10405. I have two other macs which are running OS X 10.6.8 and Safari 5.1.7 and the click to call (2.1.0.10405) works great on both of those. I can not get it to work on the mac running Lion. Any help? Thanks

I reverted back to Safari 5.1.7 from Safari 6 and now Click To Call works.
For anyone wondering how I did this, you can view instructions here:
http://apple.stackexchange.com/posts/59342/revisions
I am new to using Macs and was able to follow these simple instructions. Takes a while for Pacifist to install 5.1.7, but it's worth it to have Click To Call working now.
You will not be able to do this if you have Mountain Lion as Mountain Lion requires Safari 6.
Lastly, the next time you update your Mac and it asks if you want to upgrade to Safari 6, say NO. At least not until you see that a fix has been posted here in these forums by either Skype or Apple.
P.S. I posted this reply using OSX 10.7.4 and Safari 5.1.7

Why doesn't Skype Click-to-call work on Windows 8.1?

Why doesn't Skype click-to-call work anymore? I upgraded to Windows 8.1, and now when I click on a highlighted phone number it asks "Which app should I use" or some such microsoft text. But no application is listed. Apparently it does not work from within Firefox (I have the latest version). And I can no longer find a Skype Click to Call application or extension in Firefox. Do I need to use another browser or is there a fix for this?

Hey ran
Sorry to hear you are having probloms
I currently have skype click to call installed with firefox and windows 8.1 up to date. I would advise you to re-install skype and its click to call addon and see where it gets you
hope this helps

Skype click to call works in Chrome,but not Firefox, and it's on, why?

I use both Chrome and Firefox, I prefer Firefox on my Laptop. I installed Skype and click to call on both, everything is current, including FF. I click the Skype link in Chrome, it goes to the Skype permission page then dials out, works fine. I go to the Skype-highlighted link in Firefox, the little dropdown comes down under the link, and I click call, again, nothing. I went to Skype, and a tech remotely went through my issue himself and could not find the problem, and suggested contacting Mozilla support. AARRGH . Please help.

Do you have parental controls enabled on your computer or have other security software that might interfere?

When I click on "recommend to facebook" I get an error message in the status bar that mentions mozilla. I uninstalled mozilla firefox but this is still happening. I contacted The NY Times but they are unable to replicate the problem and suggested contacting mozilla.

Any advice ?

Try to use the NO_HIDE parameter in the CALL_FORM() built-in.
Call_Form( 'the_form', NO_HIDE ) ;Or maybe, in the[b] When-New-Form-Instance trigger of the called form, return the focus to the calling form
Go_Form( Get_Application_Property( CALLING_FORM ) ) ;Francois
