Group calls not working

For the last 2 days, group call feature does not work at all. I use this feature every day for my work.. I must have it.
When I add the 2nd caller to the call, it will not dial out if it is a POT, or it will not connect if it is a SKYPE user online.
If I create a group call prior to connecting, the button to initiate the call does not function.
I unstalled skype, delete the app directory, and reinstalled skype.
It still does work.
I am running windows 7 professional 64 bit on a dual processor with 8 GB RAM.

Hi, this morning I noticed my bluetooth radio was on.
I turned it off.
That didn't work.
I went to another machine and signed on there (Windows 7 home premium, QUAD 8 GB). That machine was running 7.3. It allowed the group calls.
I signed out and went back to the first machine running 7.4. It now works!
Hopefully this is resolved.

Re: Video Group call not working

It would seem to be a platform/OS issue. I recently got a new webcam to work with my Kubuntu 14.10 desktop. It works fine when in a one on one call but will not handle video in a group call. I could hear all the other parties, but there was no video from that computer in either direction in the grouup call. To test my premise we tried it on my Android tablet as well. It did, however, work fine on my laptop running Windows 8.1.

Hi there, added a Kudo to this post.
I have the same problem on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, also if I will move soon to 14.04 LTS 64bit.
But the reason stay in the supported platforms.
When group video calls feature will be implemented also for Linux platforms?
Thanks

Video Group call not working

Hello! I have recently purchased a laptop with Windows 8.1 with pre-installed Skype application. When When I video-call a single person, everything is working normally, and I am able to see the other person. However, when making a group call, I am the only one that cannot see neither of the parties, though I am able to hear them. I do have the latest Skype application. Also, I cannot recieve pictures. Where is the problem?
Solved!

Hi there, I am having a similar problem. When I make group video calls (on my PC with Windows 8.1), the people on macs or iphones can only be heard but not seen. And I get a message on my screen that says something like their version doesn't support group video? But I've done everything the forums says:
1) they have the latest iPhone and just downloaded Skype which is the newest version (no older versions here)
2) I'm the one hosting the call, so they're just joining in (because I know iPhone can't host, but they're supposed to be able to join group video chats).
3) I've added their name to my contacts list and dragged their contact into the group call box to initiate the call (so they're not joining in later, they're there at the start of the call).
4) And we tested prior to the group call to make sure that one-on-one video calling is working.
5) Everyone else on the call who are on a PC has the group video chat working fine.
6) Only calling with 3-4 people in a group.
What am I missing? Please help.

IOS Group Messaging not working when Android phones are involved

Group Messaging not working for me when there are both Iphones and Androids involved. iPhones still using iOS 7 don't seem to be having problems leading me to believe this is an iOS 8 problem. Is there a workaround for this yet, or is this a legitimate bug fix that Apple will have to address?

Hey geoff_zen,
Thanks for the question. After reviewing your post, it sounds like you arr having trouble with group messages. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help you resolve or isolate the issue.
iOS: Troubleshooting Messages
To resolve issues with sending and receiving iMessages, follow these steps
Check iMessage system status for current service issues.
Go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive and make sure that you registered iMessage with your phone number or Apple ID and that you selected iMessage for use. If the phone number or Apple ID isn't available for use, troubleshoot iMessage registration.
Open Safari and navigate to www.apple.com to verify data connectivity. If a data connection isn't available, troubleshoot cellular data or a Wi-Fi connection.
iMessage over cellular data might not be available while you're on a call. Only 3G and faster GSM networks support simultaneous data and voice calls. Learn which network your phone supports. If your network doesn't support simultaneous data and voice calls, go to Settings > Wi-Fi and turn Wi-Fi on to use iMessage while you're on a call.
Restart your device.
Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings on your iPhone.
If you still can't send or receive an iMessage, follow these steps
Make sure that the contact trying to message you isn't blocked in Settings > Messages > Blocked.
Make sure that the contact you're trying to send a message to is registered with iMessage.
If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, back up or forward important messages and delete your current messaging threads with the contact. Create a new message to the contact and try again.
If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, delete and recreate the contact in the Contacts app. Create a new message to the newly created contact and try again.
Back up and restore your device as new.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Have a nice day,
Mario

Calling not working

I continuously try calling and getting called by my friends who live across the state, only to have the call not work for me. I don't get any ringing or the pop-up window, it just shows me that they are in a call. When I do try to join, it sits there for approximately 30 seconds trying to connect and then kicks me out of the call. I have reset Skype, I have checked for updates; I have the most recent one, I'm up to date. They all have no problem calling with each other but I cannot join or make calls. Oddly enough, there is only one person I can call or get calls from out of our group, but I don't receive a notification unless it's from her. I have tried calling echo and it works every time but not with my friends. Please send help or something to try to fix this problem, it is making Skype unuseable.

Glad we found a workaround. On which network and in which country are you roaming? And who is your home network operator?
This would help Nokia to investigate. And it helps those to find the workaround who find this thread via an search on the Internet.

Group chat not working on Mac

Suddenly stopped working, but personal messages works. Had to login via skype for web and that's where I saw that I had tons of group messages. Tried updating Skype to latest version (7.10), restarted several times, to no avail. Group Chat is still dead.

The same here. Group chats not working, and some 2-person chats not working too.

Groups does not work in Mail under Mavericks

Its not just smart groups, by I cannot get any of my Groups to work with Mail under Mavericks. I am weary of having to type out the address for each person separately. Is there some better way?

I don't know why typing he name of a regular group does not work for you, but…
Another way is to open the address panel, select a group, then select all in the group, then click the two button.

Click to call not working with Firefox 31 in Windo...

Hello All,
I have a problem with Click to Call in my new computer.
Windows 8.1
Skype 6.20.0.104
Click to call 7.3.16540.9015
Firefox 31
Click to Call not working with Firefox.
With IE11 it ok.
When I directly copy the URL "skype:+48xxxxxxxxx?call" into address field of my Firefox, then automatically opening Skype with only 1 window- contacts, but not opened window with call phone, and not started to call.
When I do this same in IE11 , Skype opened 2 windows ( contacts and call phone) and start call to phone number.
I don't know why. because in my second computer ( this same Firefox, Skype, click to call) but Windows 7, Click to Call working with Firefox.
Please help me.
Maybe someone have a solution ?
Best Regards
Jarek
ps. Sorry for my english

Sounds that you have installed a Firefox Beta release and thus are on the beta update channel, see Help > About.<br />
The Beta update channel receives an update twice a week.
You need to install the current release to switch the update channel to release.
Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
*Firefox 27: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
If possible uninstall your current Firefox version to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.
*Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because all profile folders will be removed and you lose personal data like bookmarks and passwords from profiles of other Firefox versions.
Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure that "remove personal data" is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.

Group Message not working iPhone 6/ iOS 8

I am not able to receive group messages after I updated to iOS 8.0.2 I just activated my iPhone 6 about 3 weeks ago (Before the Apple pay update). It was working fine until I updated the software with the Apple Pay. Initially I thought ALL the group messages are not working. After few trials I realized it was only the case when the group included both iPhone and non-iPhone users. Groups with ALL iPhone users is working fine.
I have checked everything possible, but nothing works.
- Turned off-on iMessages
- Turned off-on Group messages
- Reset Network Setting
- Erased and Reset the Entire phone from Phone settings (Now operating on iOS8.1)- still not working
- Called my carrier and they didn't seem to understand why I was having this problem
I then spoke with Apple Support who ran few diagnostic tests and they didn't find anything. They suggested that I re-set the phone to brand new phone (with out iCloud back-up) via iTunes (not from phone settings) and see if that will fix this. I will try this later tonight and see if I have any luck.
I tried telling customer service that I want to return my phone and get a new one- but they seemed to keep me away from that option.
Has anyone else experienced this? If so, any suggestions?

Switch tab groups shortcut not working on cyrilic keyboard

The "switch tab groups" shortcut, which is Ctrl+` is not working when I use cyrilic layout, because the ` corresponds to ч. Is there a way to make it always use the ` key no matter of the keyboard layout (the way Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V shortcuts work on Windows)

go to system preferences->keyboard->keyboard shortcuts->keyboard and text input and redefine this shortcut. I don't know what it's called in Italian but in English the shortcut is "move focus to next window in application".

Lync 2013 Group Chat not working

We have a 2010 server and when I move people over to 2013 group chat does not work. I can select the people I want to talk to, but they don't see any of the conversations. When I move the back to the 2010 it works again.
We are running office 2013, lync 2013 and exchange 2010.
Any suggestions?

Have you installed Persistent Chat in Lync 2013? You'll need to migrate the group chat data to the Persistent Chat pool and setup a Persistent Chat Endpoint for the legacy 2010 group chat clients, see: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj204901.aspx

Group Messages Not Working between Android and iPhone Users on iOS7

Hi there,
I am a former iPhone user. I recently converted both my line and my wife's line from the IPhone 5 to a Motorola X Android phone. We kept our same phone numbers, but we completely switched from Verizon to AT&T. I have noticed that text messaging works perfectly on an individual basis when I correspond with individuals who have the iPhone, but Group Messaging is not working correctly. I am able to send messages to a group and they receive them just fine, but when they respond back to me, I do not receive their responses (as it appears they are going through as iMessages). My wife is having the same issue on her phone. After doing some detective work, I have found that hundreds of other users are having the same issues on their smartphones when they make the switch from an Apple product to an Android phone. There are a variety of "bug fixes" listed on the web, but I have completed all of them and I am still having the same issue. Here is what I have done so far...
*Factory reset both of our phones and removed the SIM cards (since we are with a new phone carrier)
*Changed both of our apple ID passwords
*Removed both of our phone numbers from Apple's database all together
*Unregistered both of our iPhone products with Apple
*Had all of my friends/family switch SMS to "On" in their Settings tab
So now what? I read one post on an Apple forum that said that they are aware of the issue and we can expect a fix in a future iOS update...but when is that going to occur, if at all? It is problems like these that led me to leave Apple all together, and here I am after having left the company, and I am still left high and dry searching for solutions to my problems. Who can help, and how can I remedy the situation?
Anything you can provide to help out would be great.
Thanks.

There are reports of iOS7 altering the settings on iMessage's connection to the iPhone. Verify that each of the iPhone and the Mac is receiving on the "channel" (phone number or email address) on which the other is initiating iMessages.

Group Policy not work in some client machine.

Hello All,
Existing environment is AD 2012. gpupdate /force command does not working in some client machine. And it's occur randomly. Error shown about 15-20% of client machine. Please suggest. Hopefully this time get reply from community.
The Error:

Thanks for your reply. basically this error occurs with in same location as well as branch location. i have check event log in AD but not got any specific error. AD health status is ok. AD to AD synchronization also working well. All the client machine running
on windows 7 64 bit and few of them are windows 8.
Please suggest. if you need any event log for analysis i can send you.
Thanks
I recommend you examine the event logs upon an affected client machine. Specifically, look for the surrounding events on that machine (both System, and Application logs), for the hours previous and the hour after.
The time period may vary according to your environment (e.g. what is expected/normal for your environment, your configured GP refresh cycle-time).
e.g., are there network drops, or power drops, or system crashes, restarts at the similar time.
if it's a laptop, is it wireless? Was there a transition from wireless to wired operation?
Is there VPN in use?
If you are able to compare with another machine (I would encourage that), to understand what "normal" looks like in the logs, so that you have some kind of baseline data for comparison.
Other checks, maybe confirm that the machines are updating as required (have the relevant WindowsUpdates etc), and consider if some security/protection/firewall software might be interfering with normal Windows operations.
Also the potential for malware or virus, which can disturb many basic services (ensure a scan is performed and returns clean).
If you have the opportunity for an affected user to contact you urgently when the symptom occurs, check that the gpt.ini file is accessible from their PC.
e.g.: \\example.net\sysvol\example.net\Policies\{31B2F340-016D-11D2-945F-00C04FB
984F9}\gpt.ini
This file is hosted within the replicated SYSVOL share on your DC's, so check that it is accessible.
You might also validate the particular GPO this refers to, and check each of your DC's holds the correct copy of the files for that GPO GUID.
If you open that GPO, and perform a minor change to it (e.g. add a comment), then click Apply, OK, this should cause the GPO contents to replicate an updated version (be cautious, depending upon the nature of that GPO !!!)
