Free calls between iPad users

What's the best App or software to make calls between ipad users???
And I'll like to know what is MobileMe exactly? Does it work on ipad???

Mobile Me works great. In a nutshell it automatically syncs your most important data (emails, contacts, calendars etc) to the web site and all your devices. The link will explain further but I just wanted to say I am a long time, satisfied customer. Many other companies have popped up in the past few years which syncing data of various kinds, mostly documents. Google also is great for syncing but I've never found a solution as simple and painless as MobileMe. Some people would rather manage it all themselves than pay $99 a year. I'm willing to pay it for the peace of mind. I get my money's worth. I'm on the move a LOT, use an iphone, laptop, iMac, iPad and sometimes friends computers. MobileMe has never let me down, never caused a headache, automatically replaced my data when my hard drive was wiped out. The service works great but it's a matter of whether or not it's worth it to you. Good luck.

How do I "call" a skype user using skype name

Completely new to SKYPE -- how does one call another skype user using the party's skype user name

Hi, tdenson, and welcome to the Community,
Confirming that yes, indeed, you and other contacts must exchange a contact invitation before you can call one another on Skype. In other words, if you send a contact invitation, the recipient must accept it first.
More tutorials and details can be found in this FAQ article:

Kind regards,
Elaine

Free calls between US & Canada?

Can I skype between U.S. and Canada for free?
[Topic title updated by moderator to be more descriptive. Original topic title was: "US & Canada"]

If the call is Skype to Skype (client to client), then yes. If the call is Skype to Phone, then that would require credit or a subscription, which is not free.

Calls to skype users and land lines not ringing

Can't call or receive calls from Skype user online...

I am using Skype from my labtop. when I want to call a friend who is online from his mobile (either iPhone or Android) he can't recieves my call as well as me can't recieve his call.
please any body can help me?
this same problem exist in Facebook call,
thanks.

It sounds to me like there may be an issue with the mobile provider ISP. If you can only reach him from mobile to mobile over 3g/4g that is very odd. I'm guessing it's the same ISP.
That is why your friend should try setting his phone to WiFi to see if you can reach him via his ISP at home vs. the mobile provider. They may have some odd restrictions in place that is causing this type of issue.

How can I transfer my Skype to free call, not cred...

How can I transfer my skype to free call not cridet
Enquiry transferred to create new topic;
subject/title edited accordingly.

Hi, HanaDabbas, and welcome to the Community,
Calls between Skype users are always free of any charge; if your calls require credit (or ask for a subscription), this means you are placing calls to fixed or land lines or mobile numbers, which require credit or a subscription to pay for the call charges.
You do not need to "change" your account; simply add those to whom you wish to call to your Skype contacts list. They will need to create their own Skype accounts in order to do this. More details here: https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA10935/calling-someone-who-s-on-skype-windows-desktop This FAQ article is customized for several other operating systems and mobile platforms.

Elaine

How to call skype users from sip?

Hi
I'm wondering is it possible to make outgoing calls to skype users (their skype account directly not their number or skype number)?
As Microsoft has stopped the older versions of skype with API, which people could use for skype gateway, is there any solution offered by Microsoft?
Thanks

However, it looks like the Skype HTML has some form of JavaScript involved. If it's doing something special you may be Out of luck.

Can I use Skype to go to call a Skype number?

Hello,
I would like to call another skype user from my mobile phone, my internet connection is not stable enough from time to time to use the skype app.
Can I get a free Skype to go number, call this number and get connected to a skype number? Or is it for landline and mobile numbers only?
Thank you and greetings!

Preventing Skype Users Accessing a Toll Free Numbe...

Is it possible to request from Skype to block Skype users from dialing a specific Toll Free Number?
I work for a Teleconferencing Company and it seems like Fraudsters are using Skype to dial a Toll Free Number of ours and continually attempt to commit toll fraud on our bridges.
Because it is free to call Toll Free numbers it is allowing these people to make infinite amount of calls to try and hack our system.
So the alternate question, are Skype callers identified to telecommunications carriers and therefore can I have my Telco block Skype calls to my toll free numbers?

Hi, David_ray, and welcome to the Community,
"Toll Free" numbers in Australia may not be included in your subscription; Skype Customer Service can clarify this.
Here is a link to the instruction on how to contact Skype Customer Service via their secure portal: Contact Customer Service
Here are a few more notes to guide you along the way ...
You will need to proceed through each step, one at a time. Sign on to the Skype website as requested. Choose the subject and topic which most closely matches the item you need assistance with. Then, continue past Step 2 of the instruction where several articles from the FAQ library will appear for you to review, and proceed to Step 3, Continue Support Request (the blue "button" appears at the lower right corner of the website page). You may also skip through Step 4 where you will be referred back here to the Community; no need to do this as the Community is where you started. When you complete the webform and click Submit, your information is relayed to Skype and you will receive a reply via e-mail.
If you are a Skype Premium or other eligible customer, you will be routed to start an instant message chat session with a Customer Service agent.
Regards,
Elaine

Are calls between iphone to iphone free?

I was wondering on how to use my iphone without adding to the expense

Calls between cellular devices use carrier minutes. Many offer free mobile to mobile, however that is up to the carrier. One advantage to using the iPhone is the ability to make Facetime calls if you are connected to wifi. Many carriers now are offering Facetime over cellular network if you are using iOS6. Using this however, uses your data. There are also apps like Skype that you can use over wifi as well, but to truly answer your question, calls between iPhones are not free.

What is facetime audio and can I use it to make free international calls between iPhones?

what is facetime audio and can I use it to make free international calls between iphones?

First, check
1. Settings > General > Restrictions: should be OFF > FaceTime: ON?
2. Settings > FaceTime > FaceTime: ON?
ou can be reached by FaceTime at: your phone number?
If all the above are correct, see below:
FaceTime is available with iPhone 4 or latter, except those iPhones that were sold in the Middle East.
Can you tell us which iPhone model that has no FaceTime?

Cannot call between non-domain users in public network (internet)

We set up a test lync servers. It is only a single server behind a firewall. On the firewall, we did port forwarding to send all the packets destined for a specific public IP to Lyncs private address.
The problem is that we can make calls between lync clients as long as one of them is located in the same subnet as the lync server. If both clients are on internet, the call cannot be setup.
If the clients are connecting remotely to lync; and they are both in the same private network, then that works.
If the clients are connecting remotely to lync; and they are at different locations between different firewalls, that does not work.
If one of the clients are on a mobile phone connecting to the Lync server using the DATA connection; and the other one is connecting from home (no vpn); that does not work.
If one of the clients VPN into the lync server's network and starts the lync client to talk to another client connecting to lync remotely via internet; that works.
Any ideas what might be the problem?
It is a demo Lync environment where we have everything loaded on one single server.
Please advise.

You need to deploy edge components for Microsoft Lync Server 2013 makes it possible for external users who are not logged into your organization’s internal network, including authenticated and anonymous
remote users, federated partners (including XMPP partners), mobile clients and users of public instant messaging (IM) services, to communicate with other users in your organization using Lync Server.
