Dualphone-how to sign in to Skype?

I got a used Dualphone from a friend who did not like it. I would like to at least give it a try. I have a paid Skype account for my online number.
When I try to "Sign into Skype" on the dual phone, it simply does not work. I don't know what else to try. I see that there is a button on the phone that ought to let me toggle the handset to be able to enter letters (for my Skype name) but it doesn't work.
Can anyone help?

My Dualphone has stopped working since a few weeks and refuses to go even near the Skype login menu setting.  I have no ideas what is going on, but I filed a support request with the manufacturer - since the phones are still sold in the Skype shop (although at half price) it would suggest they are *supposed* to still work..
The manufacturers are at dualphone dot net, I suggest you file a support request too.
(note to board moderators: if you don't support URLs, then why leave the link button live in the editor?).

  • Dualphone 3088 not signing in to skype

    I have been using a dualphone for 3 years, and not had any problems, but suddenly it is not able to sign in to Skype.  I have tried all the troubleshooting suggestions, but nothing works.  I phone abroad a lot, and would really like this fixed.  Has anyone got any ideas?
    I have unplugged everything, and reset the whole lot.  I have the updated firmware, and the IP address is recognised.

    I have recently faced exactly the same problem. My phone had Firmware version 250 and I used the advanced settings menu on the phone to install the older version (245) of the firmware and now it is signing in perfectly again. I intend to reinstall version 250 to see if the problem returns but I have not done this as yet.

  • Cant sign out of skype

    i cant seem to find out how to sign out of skype, some one please help

    Hi, alanorihuela, and welcome to the Community,
    In the Windows desktop version of the software, to sign out, click on:
    Skype -> Sign Out.
    You may also shut down Skype completely by right-clicking on the Skype icon and clicking Quit Skype.
    Regards,
    Elaine

    Guys this is absolute rubbish feature of the login application where people's login names get recorded in the dropdown menu. Is there any more permanent way of getting rid of this annoying privacy intrusive "feature"? I would like to have a profile with a username that is not going to appear at airports and my grandma's laptop after I log out of skype and no I do not want to go digging for app files to remove my entire history on each and every machine I use as suggested by your help files. Could you please advise if I'm missing something here?

    Unfortunately, the option to remove that feature is not available.

  • How do I sign up to skype

    I think this is the wrong place, but I don't know what the right one is.
    I want to sign up to skype, I want a Skype Name, I find it easier to log in to skype using a skype name than a windows live account, I find it neater to have a username for skype and not be live:my.email.from.highschool, and I want a *new* account because I don't want my old msn contacts in my skype list. I want to start from scratch. How do I do this? I can't find a way to sign up to skype without it trying to create a new windows live id, and once I've done that I can't find a way to create a skype name for it. I am mighty confused.

    Have you tried this?

  • How to disable automatic sign in from Skype for ma...

    Hi, all, there is a way to disable automatic sign in from skype for mac
    1. Simply turn off internet connection of your computer.
    2. Launch skype 
    Skype cannot sign in and you will get error screen, there you can sign in from your different account.
    Peace

    Another option is to sign out of the current account (under File), then uptick the box that says "Sign me in when Skype starts" before signing in again from whichever account takes your fancy.

  • How Do I Close My Skype Account?

    Dear Readers,
    This question is asked a lot here in the Community, particularly on this message board.  Perhaps this topic added here will be helpful.   This FAQ article explains the process of how to remove your Skype account (the blue type is actually a "link" to the FAQ article): https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA142/how-do-i-close-my-skype-account
    First, remember to cancel all active subscriptions. If you think you might be entitled to a refund, please see this FAQ to determine this:  https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA12147/when-can-i-get-a-refund?
    Second, remove any saved payment methods from your account dashboard.  
    Third, remember to change the account status or presence setting to "offline."  For your convenience, an abridged version of the FAQ article's text - specific only to removing a Skype account - is copied and pasted below:
    How do I close my Skype account?
    If you want to close your Skype account, you’ll need to contact us so we can close it for you.
    First, make sure you’ve cancelled any subscriptions or recurring payments, and used up any Skype Credit you have. Everything associated with your Skype account – including contacts, purchases and history – will be lost when your account is closed.
    Next, contact Skype Customer Service and tell us you’d like to close your account.
    It might take up to 30 days for your name to disappear from the directory, but after that, no one will be able to find you in Skype. Your name will still appear in your friends’ contact lists unless they remove it, but they won’t be able to contact you.
    In the meantime, you can remove your personal information from your profile to prevent people from finding you based on those details.
    Remove your profile information
    This will make it more difficult for people to find you in the Skype directory. You can remove or edit all of your details except for your Skype Name.
    To remove your profile information:
    Change your profile picture and mood message.
    If you have a profile picture that identifies you, you might want to change it. In Skype, click Skype > Profile > Change Your Picture… (on a Mac, click your profile picture and then Change Picture) and browse for a different picture.
    You can leave a status message saying you’re no longer active on Skype, or giving your new Skype Name if you’re using a different account. Go to Skype > Profile > Edit Your Profile… and then click Enter mood message. (On a Mac, click your name or profile picture and then click Add Mood Message.)
    Sign out of Skype.
    It’s a good idea to set your status to offline or invisible, and then sign out of Skype on all your devices. Type the chat command /remotelogout into the chat window to sign yourself out of Skype on any other devices you might be using, then sign out on the one you’re using now.
    Go to your account.
    Sign in to your account on skype.com
    Can’t sign in? Find out what to do if you’ve forgotten your username or password.
    Go to your profile.
    Scroll to the bottom of the page and, under Settings and preferences, click Edit profile.
    Edit your profile details.
    In the Personal Information section, click Edit.
    Remove your information from the Personal Information and Contact Details sections. Some fields are mandatory - replace the info in these with random characters, because you won’t be able to save it if the fields are empty. Click Save.
     Please remember this is a one-time request which cannot be reversed. 
    One more point to keep in mind: removing your account from the Search Directory will not "pull," "remove," "delete," or "retract" instant messages or file transfers that you have previously sent to your contacts.  Your account name will still appear on their contact lists, although they will no longer be able to contact you using the account name you have requested be removed.
    The last step of the process is to file your request to remove your account with Skype Customer Service.   This final and required step in the process is often overlooked, and we here in the Community are not authorized to process service requests.  Here is a link to the instruction on how to contact Skype Customer Service via their secure portal: Contact Customer Service
    Skype is aware of sporadic website issues.  Temporarily enabling scripts, disabling browser add-ins that might disable pop-up dialog boxes, and temporarily enabling pop-up dialog boxes may help get you through to Skype Customer Service.  If you still experience difficulty reaching Skype Customer Service or find yourself redirected back to the Community, please try again using a different web browser.  
    Look to approve a pop-up dialogue box which would connect you to start an instant message chat with a customer service agent. If you have pop-ups blocked in your browser settings, this will also block reaching an agent.
    Last and not least, when you reach the last step of the process, remember to click on the "Start Chat" link when you are provided the choice of visiting the Community or starting an instant message chat with a customer service agent.
    Best regards,
    Elaine

  • How do I create a Skype Name in this new environme...

    For a variety of reasons, I have created a new Microsoft Account. In attempting to set it up with Skype, I was never asked to create a Skype Name. This has created issues sining into Skype, as well as telling people how to Skype me. I do NOT want to give them my email address as my Skype contact. A Skype name is much more suited for this situation.
    How do I create a Skype name that people can use to call me?
    This beggs the question of why Loging into Skype and idnetification is co complicated. Associated with this one account there are the following methods of primary identification: Skype Name, Microsoft Account, Display Name, Skype Community Name, and there seems to be an additional display name for each Skype accont in the Community which begins with live: and then a modified form of the user's email address. That is A LOT to remember. I had a difficult time just logging in because it asks for my Skype name and the blank would not accept any of the aforementioned identifications. I had to get here by signing into Skype Desktop and then clicking a link to go through rather than signing in. The sign in would not accept my credentials.
    Bottom line is all these issues would go away if I could figure out how to get a skype name.

  • "You have been signed out of Skype, please sign in...

    This message, "You have been signed out of Skype, please sign into an Xbox account to use Skype." has been coming up whenever I've been trying to sign into Skype on the Xbox One...Not sure what happened but all it's giving me is the "Sign in" button, but all it does is just loop me back to the same message... Please help.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    This took me forever to work out but what you need to do is merge your xbox live account and skype account. You can't do it on the Xbox because of the loop so you have to do it on your PC or Laptop.
    If you have Windows 7 just follow these directions:

    I hope this works for all of you and merges your accounts properly because it was doing my head in. It worked for me and then I could just sign straight into my Skype on Xbox One.

  • IP address blocked from signing in to Skype

    Hello everyone.  I have Skype version 6.21.0.104 on my desktop computer and I am now having trouble logging in.  I have done several chats, over the last few days, with Skype customer service and the chat I had with a representative today told me that my IP address is blocked from accessing Skype. The person said I needed to contact the manufacturer.  Does this person mean that I need to contact my internet service provider?  I am a bit confused.  I wonder if I accidentally denied Skype access to the internet.  I had this issue before on my laptop and I had to go in and remove the block, but I do not remember how I did that.  Please help.  I would like to be able to use Skype on my desktop computer again.
    Subject/title edited for clarity.

    I just wanted to let everybody know that the issue has been resolved.  The IP address block has been lifted, my account is no longer restricted, and I can sign on with Skype on my deskopt computer again.

  • How can I pay for skype number for one year

    How can I pay for skype number for one year? 

    Hi, Orzo.Coffee, and welcome to the Community,
    I realize what I am about to write sounds a bit weird: to change the term of a Skype Number subscription, we need to permit it to expire, or in other words, reach the end of its term.  Your Skype Number will be held on account for you for 90 days following the expiration date, so you can sign in even on the same day you receive the e-mail stating your Skype Number subscription has expired, to reinstate the subscription and change the term.
    I had to ensure I had enough credit on account so my renewal would process successfully; if you plan to renew for a year and use credit for your payment method, remember to add enough credit to cover the cost of the annual subscription.  You could also change your payment method at the time you reinstate/renew your Skype Number subscription.
    Make sense?
    Kind regards,
    Elaine

  • Touchpad - Sign out of Skype

    How do you sign out of Skype on the HP touchpad? Am I completely missing something?  It seems the only way to NOT recieve messages on the Touchpad from skype is to remove the account from my Accounts?  Then it says it removes all my data related to skype...why isn't there simply a sign-out function, or am I just missing it somewhere?
    Post relates to: HP TouchPad (WiFi)

    I think when you select online or busy in the chat client, the Touchpad signs into all of the configured IM accounts. If you open the chat client and select "offline" I think it signs out of Skype (along with everything else).
    This behavior annoyed me enough on the Pre that I installed a different chat client (IM+) that allowed for finer-grained control over which services were online/offline.
