Do I need an online number to get a call from some...

Hello,
Do I need an online number to get a call from someone in Europe who is calling from their computer?

Hey the question is what you want to do Sir.
Skype bare and free provides you means to talk voice and video from the application with all your friends who have Skype too on their side. Though you need to connect with them first. Add them manually or through some importing to your contact. There you have the basic capability.
Then you can add with credit or subscription (I personally think that the subscriptions now with 50% off yearly are absolutely great) a few services. 
1. Outgoing voice calls to real numbers. They have plans for landlines and mobile with diff prices for diff countries. Again check the promos now for good deals.
2. Incoming voice calls from real numbers when you buy the online number. Alas its not available for all countries yet.
3. You can set your ID so when you call / outgoing voice, people can recognize you.
4. To go number that can let you call long distance and abroad as local call.
And more I guess.
I find their outgoing call quality as unparalleled to any other provider. Call quality from Canada to Israel is usually on par as land line and superior to Bell.

    I need an online number for my local area code 606 Morehead Kentucky.
    There are several cities surrounding mine with local online number options
    but not Morehead, Kentucky. If it is possible, please add Morehead to your list
    and I will purchase an online number. Thank you for your attention.

    But couldn't figure out what to chose among 13 choices listed as New York City Zones 3 through 15.  Is there a difference in the Zones? I notice they all have the same area code - 347.
    There are some subtle differences, related to how local phone calls are billed for callers in New York City.  It would not affect how the Online Number works for you - you are not charged for incoming calls made to Skype's Online Numbers, when you answer those calls with Skype.  For those calling you, it can mean the difference between a free call to your Online Number and having to pay a small fee to call your number.  For someone calling from outside the New York City area, it probably doesn't matter which of those zones you use for your Online Number.
    I have not found a good concise online reference to those calling zone in the past.  I have found some rather cryptic material that shows which prefixes in each of the New York City area codes are in each of those zones.  The zones are defined by lists of prefixes within each of those area codes, and those lists can be substantial with the growth in mobile phones over the years.

  • I get a call from someone saying they've missed a facetime call I've not made

    Can anyone suggest a solution to this? If I make a successful Facetime call to my Mum, I get a call from a nice lady (who isn't in my contacts list or phonebook, and never has been) saying she has missed a facetime call from me. I'm using iOS8.0.2 on my iPhone 5s and my Mum has an iPad mini retina also running iOS8.0.2

    Its a scam.  A well known and long running one.  Microsoft will never ask for personal details (they already have them) and
    will never cold call you.  Nor do they send out anti virus messages
    Microsoft does not do that nor do they have partners who do that 
    See the following for additional information about this and what to do and how Microsoft operates:

  • I've been getting harassing calls from "restricted"  There's no record of the call in recent or missed calls.  I'm told I can't block them but can I find out where they're originating from?

    I've been getting harassing calls from "restricted"  There's no record of the calls in recent calls or missed calls.  I'm told I can't block these calls.  Is there any way I can find out who is making them?

    There's a fee based service called Trap Call which can give you information about the caller.

    If it has a cloud icon it means its no longer on your device.  Tapping on the cloud will effectively reinstall the App from scratch to your device. 
    There is no way to remove it from the cloud because its not yours to remove from there. Its the general App repository, you are just given access to it to download content you've already purchased.

    I need help on this subject also, apparently my online number expired too. However I did not know there was an expire date. My bank asccount is still charged for a number/service subscription that no can call me on. How do I get a new number? Is it possible to get my old number back since it is on my business cards? I have been using this number for years.
    Online Numbers have expiration dates, which can be seen in the Skype programs, apps, and by logging into your account on the Skype web site (use the "Account" link at the top of this page).  Unlike the subscriptions for calling phones, Online Numbers don't appear to renew automatically.  You can have a subscription that renews automatically, which sounds like what happened to you. Subscriptions and Online Numbers are not tied together, except in one small way - certain Online Numbers can be used as Caller ID when calling telephones from Skype.  Other than that, there's no link between the two.
    The only way you can get that number back is if it is shown as available when attempting to purchase a number.  You'd have to select the country, state/province, and city/area code.  Then you can attempt to search for the number you previously had.  It is possible that the number has been reassigned, or is not available for some other reason, if it has been more than 90 days since it expired.

  • Online Number is not forwarding calls to my mobile

    Hi,
    I have gone premium and selected unlimited landline for Australia. I have then bought an Online Australian Number. After setting up call forward to my Indian Mobile Number the calls are not getting forwarded, although the calls appear on Skype Client when I'm online. I have tried setting privacy and all that stuff, but it yet does not work. In the Call Forward tab following message is displayed: "All calls forwarded to phones covered by your subscription are included at no extra cost. Other destinations will be charged at our low per minute rates."
    Am I missing something? Do I still need to buy credit? Thanks so much,
    Kind Regards
    Prabh

    Skype Number enables you to receive calls on your Skype account and the caller will be charged local rates.

    Please make sure that you have set up your Privacy Settings to "Received calls from anyone."
    Sign in to Skype.

  • Need to run VI on boot or call from other application

    I am looking for the most basic way to get Labview to run a VI upon bootup or call from another application (without having to hit the run button on the toolbar.) I would rather not have to build an application; I don't want to buy the professional version. I want my data acquisition to recover from a power outage reboot and keep going without human intervention. Is there a way to build an init that launches the VI in run mode? A colleague of mine has convinced me labview is the way to go for a new experiment, but this is one stumbling block that needs to be resolved. Thanks for any help you can give.

    i have used the startup folder to run labview vi's on several machines and it *can* work just fine.
    however, sometimes there is a timimg problem and i get the message 'vi not found,' then labview usually loads the vi and runs - but leaves the error message, which can cause problems with later operations.
    today i had this problem with a 3.4 G HP machine running Win200. Labview 7.1 & DAQmx.
    my work around solution is to use the *MarcroScheduler* program. i call a it from the startup folder. it does the following
    (a) start Labview 7.1
    (b) wait 1 minute
    (c) execute the vi.
    without the wait state, Labview 7.1 will not run the vi properly.
    good luck with your applications.
