Hi DaniaFlo2013!
Yes, you will need to be in a place where there is WiFi so that you can connect to Skype and then you just need to dial the number you want to call on the Skype dial pad. Make sure that you disable data connection from your provider to avoid roaming charges.
Please also take note that you will need Skype Credit or a subscription so that you can call normal phone numbers on Skype. You can view our subscriptions by visiting the link below and type the country you want to call on the "Find country" search box:
http://www.skype.com/en/rates/
But if you are just calling another Skype user than it should be free.
Also, depending on what your phone is, you can choose the correct link below on how you can dial on the Skype dial pad:

Travel to Japan and use Skype to call AT&T calling...

Hi,
I'm going on a business trip to Travel later this year and I'm looking for a best way to make some personal business calls during that time. My company already provides me AT&T Calling Card for daily business operation while I'm in my home country(now) and I can later reimburse the fee. Since I will stay in Japan for just a month, apply for a mobile/landline number there seems not practical to me. I just checked AT&T website and know my calling card should be available in Japan but I'm wondering if I can use Skype to call these Japan numbers? I took it a try here(outside of Japan) to call AT&T Japan calling card number but it got disconnect with 0 sec duration. I know it may because I don't have any Skype Credit balance but I don't want to risk my money to buy it and then find it's impossible to call in this way. Any idea?
In short: Can I call AT&T calling card Japan access number by Skype?

Hello,
As far as Skype is concerned the answer is "yes". You can call virtually any # worldwide with Skype Credit.
p.s. You have been flagged for posting duplicates on different boards. As this contravenes Skype policy please avoid.
Thank you.

I recommend that you always run the latest Skype version: Windows & Mac

Help.. First Time Using DVD Studio Pro!!

OK .. this is my first time using DVD Studio Pro. Before this I have always used IDVD for my Final Cut Projects, but I now need to branch out!
I've hit a bit of a brick wall. I've watched the video tutorials and tried to read the instruction manual, but it's heavy going!!!.. can someone help me get over the hump?
Here's where I've got to:
- In my Assets tab I have my two file - Test.mov QT Video File and Test.mov QT Audio file. Both are yellow uncompressed video. I also have a templates folder.
- I chose the template called brush cover which I can see under the menu tab on a window. If I go to that same window and select the graphical tab I can see a menu 1 and track 1.
- In my timeline I have dragged my Video and adui assets over and can see them and actually play the movie.
- What is also worth mentioning is that I can also see the 18 chapter markers that I created in FCP.
- Now I hit the brick wall!!.
- Back in my menu I see 8 buttons. In my timeline I have 18 chapters. How do I transfer my 18 chapters over to my menu so that I have 18 buttons each one representing a chapter?
- I'm sure that it's obvious and a silly question.. but for a rookie like me who's trying to figure this out from scratch it's not easy!
Thanks for any advise!!.. also if anyone has a good 'idiot's guide' for ex iDVD people moving to DVD Pro then I'd really appreciate it!
Many Thanks!
Steve.

You can duplicate your 8 buttons menu so many time as you need to include your 18 chapters, creating a simple new button to navigate through Chapter Menu1, Chapter Menu2, etc.
Or you can duplicte&resize buttons to fit more of them in a single menu, but 18 button chapters could be too much for a comfortable navigation.
Thanks for any advise!!.. also if anyone has a good 'idiot's guide' for ex iDVD people moving to DVD Pro then I'd really appreciate it!

First time using "Nokia N8 Ovi Map"

hello,
im first time using my n8 ovi map, and i wonder why it took hours for checking for my position,
after 2-3 hours of waiting, it still searching for my position. instead of keep waiting, i switch to walking mode, and set a destination, now it shows "waiting for GPS". i have been waiting for more than 1 hour, sadly it still showing "waiting for GPS". Anyone experiences this problem before? please provide me some solutions. thanks.

@NokiN8Silver
Welcome to the forum!
You might try as a temporary measure going to Menu > Settings > Application settings > Positioning > Positioning methods - only enable Integrated GPS then go outside away from tall buildings and it should lock on to satellites within 20 -30 minutes; once position established subsequent satellite lock on will be much more rapid.

Qosmio F60 - Each time it starts up, says it is first-time use

My notebook has just come back from being repaired (they replaced the hard-drive). Now every time I turn it on or it restarts, it says that Windows is configuring the computer for first-time use. Once on, the control panel pops up with 'How to customise your computer'. Plus, a small window pops up with "System Preparation Tool 3.14" and even if I click OK, it doesn't work.
Otherwise my computer works normally.
How do I stop my notebook from thinking it's starting for the first time?

Hi buddy,
> a small window pops up with "System Preparation Tool 3.14" and even if I click OK, it doesn't work.
And what happens if you dont click on this tool?
Maybe the notebook was reinstalled from authorized service provider and so the installation must be finished.
Otherwise I would recommend reinstalling Windows from Toshiba recovery disk again. Maybe something went wrong during installation and so it would be necessary to reinstall Windows again.

How is payment made when I use Skype to call abroa...

Can someone explain to me how the payment is made when I use skype to call abroad?
This post was transferred from its previous location to create its own new topic here; its subject and/or title has been edited to differentiate the post from other inquiries and to reflect the post's content.

Hi, Brianbarry, and welcome to the Community,
Skype provides two methods of paying for outgoing calls to fixed or mobile numbers: a Skype subscription or Buy Skype credit. Skype-to-Skype calls are always free of charge.
In the case of Skype Credit, the cost of the call is debited from your balance as the call progresses. When you reach the equivalent of "2" in whatever currency your account is set to, the credit will attempt to "top up," or the call will drop. In the case of a subscription, the subscription covers the cost of the outbound calls.
Regards,
Elaine

Computer keeps Configuring and setting up for first time use

I have a toshiba A505-S6980 that has been working fine for a couple years. Recently I had performance issues and suspected virus, spyware so I did a recovery with the original discs I made when I first got the computer. Four of the six discs reloaded fine. It did not ask for the last two discs "Environment 64 bit and Applications and Drives. I also have a System Repair disc. After loading the four recovery discs the computer now keeps recycling between preparing for first time use, configuring system, reboot and then back to preparing for first time use,etc. I think I'm close to getting this, but need a last bit of help.
Thanks

It's been a couple days since you posted this problem. Did you get anywhere, or are you still stuck in that loop? If it's still stuck, you may just want to perform the recovery again.

SQL Server Management Studio - Configuring the environment for first time use

Hi
I have recently switched my local 'My Documents' folder location to a network drive that I 'make available off line' to allow on-line/off-line work and synchronisation when I am working in and out of the office.
When I load my SQL Server Management Studio 2005 I frequently get 'Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio is configuring the environment for first time use'.
Management Studio them loads and I can continue without problem.
I am guessing it is trying to make reference to some settings file. Any ideas? I wonder if I can change/move these settings elsewhere to a local drive?
Thanks

Hi,
There is bug report of this issue:
http://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/feedback/details/126364/configuring-enviroment-for-the-first-time-every-time-in-ms-sql-server-management-express

X230 - Setup Is Preparing Your Computer For First Time Use

Dear all,
I just received my X230 bought on Ebay and as I first turned on the computer, Windows was frozen and showed "Setup Is Preparing Your Computer For First Time Use" for hours (I guess its a whole day). Since I do not have any recovery media provided, does anyone has alternative solution?
Thanks in advance!

Thanks! It took me a whole day to figure out what happened and I ended up format the whole drive and reinstall the windows. Yes, you are right, X230 is a good machine and acutally I was thinking to puchase X240 since there is kind of back to school program that you can purchase X240 at a deep discount price. After so many bad comments I chose X230 instead for:
1. Physical Trackpad button (which is extremely important as I ONLY use trackpoint)
2. 2 ram slots
3. normal voltage CPU
I am surfing the net with X230 and I am so happy I bought this.

first time using don't know how to insert the video to start editing

First thing you should know is that After Effects is not a video editor. Premiere is for putting shots together to tell stories (which is editing), After Effects is for creating those shots (compositing and visual effects) and creating motion graphics.

First time using external hard drive for backup of computer....

First time using external hard drive for backup of computer....it asks "Do do you want to erase disk?" In order to proceed, I have to say "yes" ... is that what I want to do? ...Seems like I'm skipping a step...

To use Disk Utilities, attach the drive, open Finder > Applications > Utilities > Disk Utilities and then highlight the LaCie drive in the left panel of the DU window. In the right panel, choose the Partition button top center of the pane. Then decide how many partitions you want on the drive, one is just fine.
Then choose the format, the default is Mac OS Extended (Journaled) which is prefered.
Then name the partition or drive.
Then choose the partition table, the default is GUID which is prefered.
Then Apply and you will get to confirm that you want to erase and format the drive.
Quit DU and you are ready to go.

First time using ical. adding invitee and ical does not accept address

CHRIS A123,
Welcome to Apple Discussions.
1. Quit iCal, and open System Preferences...>Language & Text>Formats>Region:>reset/choose the appropriate region...also check what you have set in Dates/Times
2. If that is unsuccessful, I also recommend using the Mac OS X v10.6.2 Update (Combo).
