Using skype for business instead of skype

I'm seeing other users words instead of the emoticons in text messaging from my mac laptop. Instead of the emoticon I see the words in parens: rainbow, man, woman for example. Is skype ever gonna sync up the versions so everyone sees the same thing on its product?

Hi Rudolf and welcome to the Skype Community,
Di you know you can actually add Skype contacts on Skype for Business and vice versa? Learn more about adding SfB contacts in Skype here: https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA12315/can-i-contact-lync-users-from-skype
So basically you can just decide for one client and continue using that. Keep in mind though that currently you can't do Skype screen sharing across these two account types. If you are using the advanced screen share functionality of Skype for Business I would recommend going for that.

About using Skype for Business

We are planning for IM & Video Conference solution for our company.
The number of users will be about 40, among three sites (One in HK and two in China).
The main function to us is Instant Message, Audio chat or conference, Video chat or conference.
If we use Skype as our solution, how should be plan to purchase?
Is that we only need pay for Skype Manager and then we can enjoy Group Video Chat for everyone?
Best Regards,
Ivan

Skype manager itself is free. The Group Video chat is not free.
Skype is really quite good, but do not depend on it as your primary method of business communication. I suggest you look at google business apps it may meet your requirement for a low cost. Look at their "hangouts" product - it allows up to 8 or so people to group conference. It is a lot lot better with collaborative document sharing.

Searching in Skype for Business (Lync) and GAL and Outlook

Post transferred to the Features: Using Skype in Your Business message board.

Hi,
Base on my knowledge, it can be the issue of driver. Please try to uninstall the default Sound Card, VGA Device/Video Card, Graphic Card. Then rescan the system to reinstall these driver, and rebooted.
Then test the issue again.

Skype for Business integration?

Hi. I work for a small company. We have a few members of staff in the UK who work from home and the rest are in an office in the US. In the UK, we use the Skype Number as our 'office' number and have Skype credit for making calls.
Our IT person in the US wants to get everyone using Skype for Business as we now have this as part of our Office 365 subscription with Office, Exchange etc.
My question is thus whether I can get any of the Skye Number and Skype credit features on the Skype for Business account? I've searched high-and-low and it doesn't look like we can, so I thought I'd post here and see if anyone can help me with a definitive answer.
Thanks!

What happens when Skype for business evaluation expires?

I am testing Skype for business within my company before actually rolling out teh Skype for Business for all. I am using Skype for business evaluation version to test the features and/or and impact it would have on Lync 2013 existing users. I need to know

Hi Ketan Tank,
Agree with Anthony, you can get the updates (KB2889923 & KB2889853) through Windows Update.
The Skype for Business Client will already be activated as it is an update to an existing licensed product.

Skype for Business - Windows Phone app released

The Skype team arepleased to announce the availability of the Skype for Business app for Windows Phone.
Skype for Business - Windows Phone appWhat’s new—intuitive interface, more emoticons, improved server communicationsIf you are familiar with the Lync app for Windows Phone, you’ll notice a number of enhancements in the new app. The most noticeable differences right off the bat are the Skype for Business brand and UI, which is intuitive and familiar if you happen to use Skype in your personal communications. We’ve also revamped emoticons, which now offers over 100 emoticons to land your message visually.
We have improved how the app and the server handle conversation notifications. Once you’re notified of a new conversation on your phone, the other clients you have logged in won’t be able to grab the conversation and prevent you from...

Thanks for the response, Ken.

Skype for Business & Lync : Contact icons not appe...

In our environment we have several users that are using Skype for Business, and the rest using Lync.
We have noticed that when migrating our users over to Skype for Business, the contact functionality that shows "icons" next to each person's name is now blank.
As an example, my personal icon shows up for me but none of my contacts show their customized pictures.
Lync users can see my icon and can see everyone elses.
Thank you

Hi Alan Dooley,
Have you tried to create a new desktop shortcut ?
In addition, you can try to follow the FAQ below to rebuild the icon cache.

Skype for Business banned after 30 mins

Hello,
I created a Skype for Business account and 30 minutes later it was banned for violation of term. Please help me reinstate my account. Skype team refuse to tell which clause I violated. I honestly believe I have wronged nobody. How do i violate anything in such a short amount of time?
Thanks.
James

Jae:
Do you mean your Skype Manager account was suspended?
Regardless, you must contact Skype Customer Service directly to enquire. Here is a link to the instruction on how to contact Skype Customer Service via their secure portal: Contact Customer Service
As you know must contact Customer Service, skip past Step 2 of the instruction when FAQ articles and other information is presented, some of which may be helpful and provide insight, and proceed to Step 3, Continue Support Request.

Skype for Business to land line

Hi,
Here is a quick question. I understand I can call USA/Canada land lines for free via Skype consumer, but how does it work using Skype for business? Are those calls also free? where can I find rates for other countries?
cheers

Just to add to this:
If it's just the UI you can also set this through Set-CsClientPolicy.
Set-CsClientPolicy -Identity Global -EnableSkypeUI $false
https://technet.microsoft.com/library/dn954919.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396
However, using this method, some things are still Skype branded (i.e the meeting add-in in Outlook will say "New Skype Meeting") but the UI will now be back at Lync 2013.

Skype for Business - Cannot see shared screens, bu...

I just started a new job and am required to use Skype for Business. I downloaded Skype for Business 32 bit. My PC is 64 bit but because I already have other Office 32 bit programs, I cannot install the 64 bit version.
Everything in Skype for Business appears to work properly, except for the fact that I cannot see someone else's screen when they've shared it with me. When someone shares their screen with me, all that I can see is the empty white box where their desktop should be. When I share my screen with others, they can see my desktop correctly.
What other information is needed to help diagnose this issue? I really need this functionality in order to do my job properly.
Thanks in advance for your help.

I was using Lync as part of the offerings found on Office 365 and I was prompted to "upgrade" to Skype for Business and so I did per the suggestion. Lync had screen sharing, Skype for Business currently does not have screen sharing! This is a major dissapointment. Who is the product manager and why the premature roll-out? This is incredebly frustrating as most all my clients leverage Lync (their own install on their servers... have not upgraded yet.. lucky for them) and screen sharing is an important part of my interaction. It took many of my clients a long time to master Lync and therefore, it is incredebly challenging to teach them how to use an alternative tool over the phone. I feel incridebly duped. My clients can share with me however, I cannot share with them. What is the current timeframe for enabling (re-enabling) this functionality? How can I get back Lync? Is there a beta release of the next version? Finally, how can this be called "Skype for Business" when a core aspect of the tool to conduct "business" had been stripped away without warning?
