I have a MACMINI and use Skype daily,

I have a Mac Mini and I use Skype daily, but after a few minutes it starts to echo badly and make noises, How do I control this? what do I have to buy to stop the noise?

my mic is only on a 3 foot cord I have tried to place the mic as far from speakers as possible, but I STILL need the mic near computer for other party on Skype to hear me.
I tried getting earphones, but Apple store only has Ipod compatible earphones and mics for the computer but they are actual microphones for Karaoke or music purposes

  • HT201272 I have always had and used the same Apple ID, so where are the rest of the songs I bought from itunes? I've bought at least 400 songs and I only am being able to download 178. Where are the rest of my purchases?!

    I have always had and used the same Apple ID. I have changed credit card information on my Apple ID account several times though. Does that make a difference when downloading past purchases? I'm very angry at Apple and Itunes because I have been using itunes since 05/2005 and I do not have even close to the amount of songs and albums that I have purchased from itunes. If the credit card info does make a difference even though the account is the same one then itunes needs to make sure to notify users of this because I am not the only one who is wondering this same thing. I have numerous friends who i've talked to about this and they say the same thing, that they too have songs purchased in the past that have disappeared when trying to download past purchased items. It should not make a difference. $12 is $12. Especially since I have ALWAYS used the same account. If itunes does not change their ways, I will not be purchasing songs or anything else for that matter from them ever again. I will go back to buying CDs where I KNOW that it will always be with me and I don't have to deal with this. I will also make sure to find a better more reliable source to download music from and will make sure everyone I know and come in contact with knows what it is and how much better it is than itunes. There should be no experation date on the music I PURCHASE, nor should there be any other little loop holes that allow itunes to rob us of rightfully purchased products. What's the deal itunes??

    There should be no issues. Its designed to work like that.  You don't change Apple IDs just because you get a new device.

    Is there any chance that the phones can fall out of sync?
    Unlikely. But nothing is impossible.   Though I don;t see how that would happen. As long as both are signed into the Same Apple ID / iCloud Account they will be N'Sync. (Bad Joke)

    If I get a message or buy an app or take a photo on the iPhone 5, how do I get those things onto the iPhone 6?
    If you buy an App, you have 2 ways to get it to the iPhone6: If Automatic Downloads is enabled in Settings->iTunes & App Store, it will automatically download to the iPhone 6 when you buy it on the 5 and vice versa if you buy it on the 6, it will download to the 5.
    Alternatively, you can simply go to the App Store App->Updates->Purchased and look for the App there and download it. Purchased Apps will not require payment again. i.e They'll be free to download to the iPhone 6 once purchased.
    SMS Messages will sync over using Continuity as long as they are on the same Wifi network. Otherwise, restoring the iPhone 5 backup to the iPhone 6 will transfer all messages received up until the backup was made onto the iPhone 6.
    Images, can be transferred either through Photo Stream
    My Photo Stream FAQ - Apple Support
    Or any Cloud service you want such as Dropbox, or One Drive.

    Also, something i forgot to ask initially: Should I update the iPhone 5 to iOS 8 first or does that not matter?
    If you want the Continuity features as explained above you need to update the iPhone 5 to iOS 8. Otherwise its not all that important.

    Your call of course but IMO a waste of money. Please read this first:
    There are many forms of ‘Malware’ that can affect a computer system, of which ‘a virus’ is but one type, ‘trojans’ another. Using the strict definition of a computer virus, no viruses that can attack OS X have so far been detected 'in the wild', i.e. in anything other than laboratory conditions. The same is not true of other forms of malware, such as Trojans. Whilst it is a fairly safe bet that your Mac has NOT been infected by a virus, it may have another security-related problem, but more likely a technical problem unrelated to any malware threat.

    Roadrunner is POP email, and the feature you are looking for
    is a function of IMAP email. Roadrunner has not announced
    any plans to make IMAP available. If this is important to you,
    get a gmail account (which can be setup as IMAP)  and configure
    your Roadrunner account to automatically forward emails to the
    gmail account.

  • I have a Mac and use an EPSON NX510 printer. I would like my printer to only print in black ink unless I otherwise indicate. How do I do this?

    I have a Mac and use an EPSON NX510 printer. I would like to print in black ink only and cannot locate how to do this?

    You usually find an option to print in black and white or gray scale in the settings of your printer that come up  when you choose "print" in the file menu of the program you are using at the time.
    BUT, if what you want to do is print with only black ink because you are out of ink in one of the color cartridges, that is usually not possible. For some reason I can't remember, printers makers prevent the use of the printer as soon as one of the color cartridges is empty.

  • I have an Iphone5s and use Verizon.  Frequently when I am on a call, it sounds like there is an incoming call which does not show up in either call waiting or missed calls.

    I have an Iphone5s and use Verizon.  Frequently when I am on a call, it sounds as if there is an incoming call but it does not show up in call waiting or in missed calls.  When I went to check on line,  the fix involved a screen that I did not even have on my phone.  Anyone else have this problem and is there a solution?  I can't seem to get tech support at Verizon.  Boo.

        Hi Debsy1,
    Thanks for the additional details! Let's get this issue resolved. What software version is the device on? Please reset the Network Settings on the device. Go to settings>general>reset>reset network settings. Please Note: Audio alerts may also indicate delivery of incoming text messages or emails. The tone will vary based on the type of information being delivered to the device. Tones may also indicate low battery charge or inadequate signal strength. Keep me posted with results.

  • I have Photoshop CS5, and use windows XP.  I cannot open Bridge from photoshop, whichI have done for years. When I am in Photoshop,when it opens, I always click on the bridge icon at the bottom of the screen, and it puts me into bridge. This is not happen

    I have Photoshop CS5, and use windows XP. I cannot open bridge from photoshop, which I have done for years.  When I am in Photoshop, when it opens, I always click on the bridge icon at the bottom of the screen and it puts me into bridge. This is not happening, the small wheel at the bottom of the screen just keeps spinning. Its like its stuck or caught in a loop. I can't get into bridge. I tried shutting down and starting up again but  the problem remains. Looking for help.  Dan

    Thanks for your response, I was able to open bridge from File-Browse in Bridge.  This worked, but was not able to go back to the way I always opened Bridge.  At least I could get to Bridge and go into Camera Raw. I never tried to open Bridge from the Start menu.  The odd thing about this is, it has happened before, and to get it "unstuck" and working again, I would shut down and restart again in a few minutes, and things would go back to normal.  This time it did not go back to normal after several attempts.  I shut down for about 3-4 hours, restarted, and it seems to be back to normal again. I am not sure if it's a problem that is getting worse each time it happens.       And yes I am using Mini Bridge in photoshop CS5.  Thank you for your help.  Dan

  • I cannot download flash.  I have windows 7 and using explorer.

    I cannot download flash.  I have windows 7 and using explorer.  When I download flash, it tells me that the download is successful but it isn't.  When I try to save it it is not saved where it tells me that it is saved.  I downloaded reader and that was successful.  I did disable shockwave in my addons because that was slowing yahoo opening up.  So when I download flash everything looks successful but then it is not there.

    Shockwave Player, or Shockwave Flash?  If you disabled Shockwave Flash, then you disabled Flash Player.

    Hi Sophie,
    Normally you can find your serial registered to your AdobeId. To find it please login to the Adobe website and check if you did register it to your account.

    In general you will go true a educational verification afterwards you get the serial. So its in your email or account. If you still have issues get in contact with the chat team to get help.

  • 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.
    TIME ZONE - US EASTERN. LOCATION - PHILADELPHIA, PA, USA.
    I recommend that you always run the latest Skype version: Windows & Mac
    If my advice helped to fix your issue please mark it as a solution to help others.

  • Ipad camera app not working after update 7.1.1 and using skype on video call

    Hello,
    i updated my mini ipad to ios 7.1.1
    then i used skype for video call...
    It worked fine for a few minutes then the front camera stopped working
    Stopping skype and starting the camera app, i saw that the front camera was no more working...black screen
    instead rear camera was working...
    Then i tried to reset the device (pressing sleep and home button) and uninstalled skype
    Now front camera works more or less, but the camera app seems always almost freezed, i cant change easily the options,
    i cant record a video, only camera for snapshots is working...
    any suggestion?
    is it possible to uninstall the camera app and try to reinstall it?
    Thanks!

    Updating to iOS 7.1.2 doesnt solving problem at all, even my front camera also begin not working after I did that. Everything's OK when I using rear cam, but just freeze and blurred on screen while switched to the front cam. And have to resetting to go back to rear cam. My iPhone4's camera itself, rear and front, are in good performance before. And I've tried anything such as reset, hard reset, restoring, setting up as new device, etc, without any result since then. If some people say it was about hardware issued, I thing so weird because too many same hardware problems coincident happened at the same moment. So I just only hope the Apple will listening and solving all problems wisely. Thanks b4.
