How common an App is Skype on the IPhone?

I am researching remote viewing via Skype on an IPhone. I had a comment it was not a common app. I thought Skype was compatible with all smart phones? If you needed to do remote viewing, would one choice be Skype for Apple and Non-apple users? Can an Apple Iphone user talk to a person with a different manufacturer smart phone?
What problems might be encountered say if one person was in Massachusetts and another in Las Cruces New Mexico.

Skype is available for iOS, Windows, and Android. Compatibility will depend on the OS version being run, I suspect. Yes, it will work between devices of different manufacture and running different OS vendors. Its use on iPhones is quite common.

None in particular.

  • I have a presentation to make to a customer and need to know how many educational apps are there for the iPad/iPod?

    I have a presentation to make to a customer and need to know how many educational apps are there for the iPad/iPod? More specifically special education apps.
    Thanks

    Keep in mind as well that not all apps are "created equal".  Some are really good, and others are not very good.  You might also want to look at some education sites for recommendations.  An example of a general iPads in education forum is

    but I imagine some exist for special education needs as well.  Our healthcare organization is using some apps for working with autistic children and find them very helpful. 

  • How do you get Voice Memos off the iPhone and onto my Mac???

    Is this yet another iPhone dead end??
    I used the Voice Memo app that comes with the iPhone to record some rehearsals and now I want to move them to my Mac, edit them, make CDs, share online.
    I can't find any way to get them off the iPhone, unless I click the "Share" button, which means I can email them. But, it won't let me email the longer ones. I don't know how large the files are, but it just won't do it. I don't see any other facility for moving these files to my Mac. What is up with that???? iTunes provides no access to these files.
    Is there some proprietary utility for the Mac that will allow me to access these files and move them to my Mac??? It would be nice if the iPhone would show up as a mounted volume which I could then browse for files, but that would make too much sense and be contrary to the control freak nature of Apple and it's iPhones/iPod Touches. I would call it another lousy user experience, but it's just a user non-experience, a complete dead end.
    Is there any way to get these Voice Memo files off of the iPhone besides emailing them??

    Thank you for replying!
    That kb article refers to the iPod Nano and not the iPhone nor the iPod Touch.
    The Synchronizing section you pointed to does not work. I have a big bunch of voice memos on the iPhone. I tried the sync. Three of them were moved to the Mac, the rest were ignored. Four others were moved to iTunes Music/Music/Unknown with numbered names (i had given several of the voice memos names with the Custom label on the iPhone). For the synch I selected "Include voice memos."
    After a sync, or several syncs, none of the other voice memos were moved to the Voice Memo playlist, nor are they in the iTunes Music library.
    How do you get them to sync? I need to move them off of the iPhone and onto my Mac!

  • ITunes can not sync apps to the iPhone because it can not be determined which apps are installed on the iPhone.

    Hello.
    I get this error message
    iTunes can not sync apps to the iPhone because it can not be determined which apps are installed on the iPhone.
    iTunes kann keine Apps mit dem iPhone synchronisieren weil nicht festgestellt werden kann welche Apps auf dem iPhone installiert sind.
    Need Help

    Basic troubleshooting is reset, restart, restore.  Have the first two been tried?
    How about simply unplugging the iPhone and plugging it back in to sync?
    What has been done in an attempt to troubleshoot the issue?

  • I run in an area without wifi and poor cell reception. How do I keep my tunes on the iPhone 6 plus and not in the cloud

    I run in an area without wifi and poor cell reception. How do I keep my tunes on the iPhone 6 plus and not in the cloud

    Hi Delecee,
    You can easily do that by downloading the music before you get to that area of weak Wi-Fi and cellular signal by downloading the music directly from the Music app by tapping the cloud button next to songs. The other option is to sync the music with iTunes over USB to have the songs downloaded to your phone. Take a look at the links below to get your music downloaded to your iPhone.

  • Skype on the iPhone - current status.

    What is the current status on Skype on the iPhone ?
    It has been months since AT&T announced they were allowing Skype to be used on the iPhone. There have been threads here discussing this and elsewhere including Skype forums. Skype claims it already has software ready to allow iPhone connections over AT&T's wireless network and the delay has to do with Apple itself. Every piece of information I have found including posts here in this forum also indicate the same. Since AT&T itself is okay with Skype on the iPhone why then is Apple blocking this feature ? This would be a great service to customers specially those who often need to make long distance or international calls.
    Why is Apple taking so long to respond to customers needs and blocking Skype full functionality on the iPhone ?
    Thanks,
    Joseph

    This is a user to user forum. No one here knows what is going on between Apple and any developer. You could email Skype and ask them. They may have a reason to hold back their app for now.

  • IM+Skype for the iphone

    Alright I have a question about the skype for iphone service. I thought I understood but aparently not the case. So first to use it i must pay $25 for a lifetime purchase or a $4.95 a month fee. Alright so it's free to call someone's skype account from it and it only costs a small fee to call a real phone? I had thought prevously that it also uses your air time minutes. However, the skype website says it is for the ipod touch as well. How can it use airtime charges then? or is it only free when hooked up to wifi?

    what i can gather though is it calls you back. My girlfriend is currently in london so i am trying to find the best way to call her. All I have is my cell phone and a pc, i'm in a dorm room. Otherwise i would just use a calling card and pay $0.03 per minute. Heard about skype for the iphone, I use skype to talk with her over the pc. just would be nice to talk anywhere.

    Hi there.
    Have an iphone 3G and wen to install the Facebook app from the app store. Wen I selected install app, it said that the iphone requires IOS 4.3.
    I then plugged the phone into itunes and it said the phone was up to date (IOS 4.2.2 I think it said?). How can i install these apps, the same happened and other apps i tried to install. Any advice would be much apprecaited

    Unfortunately there is nothing that you can do and you CAN'T install these apps becuse your phone is too old.  A 3G cannot be updated beyond iOS 4.2, which is the most it can support and these apps need iOS 4.3 or above to be installed and there are no versions of these apps available.
    Developers have to place a cut off somewhere and keep developing for the most recent software that does not now include the 3G.
    If you want to install these apps on your phone, then you will have to upgrade to either an iPhone 3Gs, iPhone 4, 4s or 5.  That is all you can do because you won't be able to download these apps on an iPhone 3G - just not possible any longer.

    It sounds as if AT&T has already told you they can't do what you want. It doensn't sould like anything that's fixable on your end.

  • How can i check my mails on the iphone and make sure that the mail wont pop up again on my computer ?

    How can i check my mails on the iphone and make sure that the mail wont pop up again on my computer/ will be deleted on the server ?

    For that kind of connectivity you need to be using an email account configured either as IMAP or Exchange.
    IMAP & Exchange accounts will maintain a sync across all your devices, so if you read / delete a message on your phone, it will disappear from the server as well. This cannot happen in POP email accounts.
    If your using gmail, instructions on how to set up exchange / imap are here http://www.google.com/support/mobile/bin/answer.py?answer=138740&topic=14252
    Alternatively, if its anything other than Google, you will need to contact your email providor or IT department (if your email address resides with an enterprise environment) to get the correct settings.
    Hope this helps!

  • How do I remove a "calendar" from the iPhone?

    I have a First Gen iPhone with up to date software. I recently deleted a calendar from my MacBookPro and that calendar won't delete from the iPhone. I used to have three calendars in iCal which synced to the iPhone. One was my home calendar, one was work and one was a Quicken Calendar that I didn't set up. I deleted the Quicken calendar from the computer and want it deleted from the iPhone, but can't figure out how. I went into setting in the iPhone and there is no where to delete a calendar. Thanks.

    I had a calendar stuck in the phone that didn't exist on my laptop. I had to go into iSync and reset sync history to get rid of it.
