How to manage two skype numbers on one account?

I'm considering getting a second number to use for work. I understand that's easy. What I can't find in help is how to manage each separately.
I see one post saying that Skype hasn't added a way to tell which number is being called. Has that changed?
The other question is: Can I set one to go to vmail automatically while the other receives calls? For instance, after hours I want to "turn off" the business number and leave the home number accepting calls. Is that possible?

No, this has not changed.

Unfortunately, Skype Numbers do not work as you describe.
While we are allowed to start up to ten (10) Skype Number subscriptions per Skype account, being affiliated with the same account, will behave as if all ten numbers are actually only one number.   What to do?

Create a new Skype account to use for Skype Number intended for business use, and use another Skype Number as a personal or home account.  Nothing changes as far as the cost of the Skype Numbers is concerned, however what changes by using each Skype Number on a different Skype Account is that you can control each number separately.
All that said, unfortunately Skype's mobile platforms do not support being logged in to two Skype accounts simultaneously.  The Windows Desktop platform does, however doing the same on a Mac is not supported, and the work-around is messy at best.
Not so sure I helped much, here!
Best regards,
Elaine

  • Can i have 2 skype numbers on one account?

    can i have 2 skype numbers on one account?

    Hi, MSCP, and welcome to the Community,
    Yes; you may have up to ten (10):  https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA256/how-do-i-set-up-my-skype-number
    How many Skype Numbers can I set up?
    You can have up to 10 Skype Numbers attached to your account. The perfect option if you frequently receive calls from more than one location. You can choose where you want to buy each Skype Number for, so you can have a number with the area code or the country code you regularly expect calls from.
    Please review other postings here on this message board if you plan to do such things such as activate separate call forwarding for each number or separate voice mail,  as Skype does not provide a facility for this.  Multiple Skype Number subscriptions as well as any other subscriptions, features, or credit purchased under one Skype account are tied to the account on which they were purchased.
    Regards,
    Elaine

  • Two online numbers on one account?

    I have a two-part question:  One doesn't fit in this section but it
    My roommate and I are considering using skype as our main phone number, is there a way to have one number for our area code and one for his family's area code so they can call him "local" running from the same account?
    The second part of the question is:
    Is there a phone that would be able to recognize which number is being called and then ring with different ringtones based on who's being called?

    I have two online numbers in my account.  I would like the calls on one be forwarded to one cell phone and the other to a different cell phone.  Is this possible?  It does not seems to?  Do I have to open a separate account for this?
    Currently, this would require a 3rd party application using the Skype public API or SkypeKit. This function is currently not supported by the Skype clients.

  • How to manage two iphones on same icloud account

    I recently purchased additional storage on icloud (200gigs) and my wife and I are both using the same account under my name.  Now my photos, notes and reminders etc. are showing up on her phone.  Is there any way to change the settings so that her backed up data stays on her phone and mine stays on mine only?

    If you are syncing Contacts, Notes and Reminders, no. That is an account (AppleID) specific function. Backups, however, are another matter and would remain separate since they are device specific.

  • One account with two skype numbers, want to forwar...

    that's it. i have one skype account that had one skype number forwarding to one land number. works fine. bought another skype number in order to forward to a 2nd land number. but cant find any way to do this on skype.  skype just wants all forwarding for both skype number to go to the same land number (or numbers).
    other than creating a 2nd account for the second number/forwarding, is there a way to do what i want to do here?
    or, if i need to set up a 2nd account for the 2nd number, is there any way to get skype to apply the 2nd skype number and the payment (that has already been processed) for that number to the 2nd account?
    pls let me know, thanks for help.

    the Skype client cannot distinguish between incoming calls that were placed to each Skype Number
    Skype Numbers are for incoming calls only, and that's all the Skype client sees . . . an incoming call
    unfortunately, you also cannot transfer a Skype Number from one account to another
    sorry that's not what you wanted to hear

  • Two warehouse numbers in one plant

    Is it possible to have two warehouse numbers in one plant and how do i get this to work?Can the same users work in first and second warehouse?What are the things that i need to define searately in second warehouse number?What is the difference if i still have one warehouse number and split two warehouses in 2 different warehouse numbers?

    Is it possible to have two warehouse numbers in one plant and how do i get this to work?
    Sure, you just need to create another WhNum and assign it to the SLoc(s).
    Can the same users work in first and second warehouse?
    Yes, but you will be required to change their WM profile in LRFMD to make it work.
    What are the things that i need to define searately in second warehouse number?
    Not sure I understand the question correctly. You need to have all the WM settings for this warehouse number separate, although some values might be the same (print program, storage types, movement type config, etc.) but they need to be specified for the key of your new WhNum.
    What is the difference if i still have one warehouse number and split two warehouses in 2 different warehouse numbers?
    There are many differences... You will be able to make the movement types config different which is important if your process requirements are different.
    You will have two warehouse monitors RF monitors (LRF1/LRF2 t-code).
    You will be able to specify different internal SU number if you are using storage units.
    You will be able to have the same storage types in different WhNUms, e.g. you can have 001 in WH1 and 001 in WH2 too without conflict.
    Have different print programs, settings in mobile data entry etc.
    Well, there are many other differences. It would be good if you could specify which operations / processes are of interest so we could elaborate about the specific differences you are interested in.

  • How to set up two iPads, different locations, one account.

    How do I set up two iPads in two different States with one account.  My 89 year old father can not do the details of setting up an account but I want him to have apps and have even gifted him a bird guide.  Now it sits in his in box because we don't know how to download it without an account.  

    Obviously your father will not be able to sync with iTunes, but somehow I don't think that is going to be an issue.
    You can set up the account on your iPad, or computer, whatever, and then have your father sign into your Apple ID on his iPad. Settings>Store>Sign in. He will need your ID and password in order to download apps or other paid content.
    However, he does not - nor do you need to set up the account on his iPad. He just needs to sign in to the account.
    This is not really ideal - separate ID's would be the way to go, but if you are essentially maintaining the device and springing for the apps - it will work - if you want to share an ID.

  • How to merge two WD components in one WD application?

    Hi SDN,
    Can any one tell me How to merge two WD components in one WD application?
    suppose i have two WD componets z_comp1 & z_comp2 now i want to use both these components in one WD application.
    Regards,
    Rahul.

    hi rahul...........
              you can use any number of wd components into one component.
    eg:
            consider you are having 2 components 'A' and component 'B' and you want to embed both into component 'C'.
           You can just click the 'Create' icon which will be present in the properties tab of the component controller.
           you mention the name of bothe components 'A' and 'B'.
            So now the interface controller of both the components are created in component 'C'.
           Now you can use the views present in both the components in component'C'.

  • Hi, I use two email addresses within one account with gmx.  I created one account with the first email address now. How do I add the second one to this account? Now it looks like this. One account was opened with address A. I receive in this account email

    Hi, I use two email addresses within one account with gmx.
    I created one account with the first email address now. How do I add the second one to this account?
    Now it looks like this.
    One account was opened with address A.
    I receive in this account emails for address A and B.
    But I can only write and answer with address A.

    Hi Rudegar,
    Sorry for my late reply.
    It s not the amount of accounts I'm struggling with.
    When I create now for both email addresses one account, then I receive the same emails two times.
    That is not what I want.
    Because on gmx the two email addresses have the same inbox and outbox.
    E.g. I can login to my gmx account either with email A or B. It doesn't matter.
    Now I want to have the same on my ipad.
    One account with both email addresses.

  • How can I associate 2 appleids with one account or use a different Appleid for imessage as described in another post?

    How can I associate 2 appleids with one account or use a different Appleid for imessage as described in another post?
    I have rejoined the iPhone community, not with one iPhone but with two. My wife agreed to move from the unenlightened!
    I have set up both under my apple account and want to keep it that way. But I do not want iMessages going to both phones. I would like separate message queues but share all apps and other purches from the store.
    I have created a separate AppleID for her but under Settings>Message>Receive At (it currently says 2 addresses) > ... will not allow me to change the current eMail address and when I add hers (her appleid) it errors out. The only thing I can do in the Apple ID field is to manage my account and not change it to hers.
    How can I have 2 iPhones (and my iPad) on the same account but have separate identies?
    Thanks,
    LpGrumpy

    1. Yes. Restart with the Option key held down as needed.
    2. No, it won't be a problem.

  • Skype Premium for one account within Skype for Bus...

    Hi!
    Can I purchase Skype Premium for one account (not the administrator) within my Skype Business account? 

    Hi, ridgelineeng, and welcome to the Community,
    Depending upon the additional features you wish to have the particular user to have access to, and where your account is located, you could do this one of two ways:
    Add enough credit to the "child" account so the user can purchase a Premium subscription; or
    If Video is the only feature you need, here is a screen shot of where to find and to add that feature:
    Please note, if the Skype Manager account is in the United States and has accepted US.. Terms of Service, then the members are not permitted to purchase any products themselves. They can only request available products from the administrator, and Skype Premium is not currently available.
    Best regards,
    Elaine
