I want to use Skype to call an International landl...

I'm overseas and need to join a non Skype conference call at home. How do I enter the meeting ID once have connected to the landline? Can just use the keyboard? I haven't done this before.

You didn't say what kind of G4 you had, but bear in mind some Macs have a mic-level input and others have a line-level input. Those with the latter (eg the latest G5 dual core Macs) don't pick up enough sound from a normal microphone without an amplifier. It's confusing because both inputs use a 3.5 mm headphone style plug and they look identical.
So if you're buying a headset that you might want to use if/when you change Macs, USB is the way to go.
I use the Logitech 350 USB headset and avoid the mic input altogether. It's best to use a headset rather than a mic, because the incoming audio from your caller won't 'feed back' into your microphone. You can use non-usb headsets coupled with Griffin's iMic USB adaptor as well, but that's an expensive solution.
Hope that helps.

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.

How is payment made when I use Skype to call abroa...

Can someone explain to me how the payment is made when I use skype to call abroad?

Hi, Brianbarry, and welcome to the Community,
Skype provides two methods of paying for outgoing calls to fixed or mobile numbers: a Skype subscription or Buy Skype credit. Skype-to-Skype calls are always free of charge.
In the case of Skype Credit, the cost of the call is debited from your balance as the call progresses. When you reach the equivalent of "2" in whatever currency your account is set to, the credit will attempt to "top up," or the call will drop. In the case of a subscription, the subscription covers the cost of the outbound calls.
Regards,
Elaine

Boss wants to use Skype

My boss has a hearing aid and a hearing loop set up in his office with his computer plugged into the amplifier. Since he can hear everything from his computer very well, Skype would seem a good choice but he would like people to be able to call him and we are in Canada. I was wondering if we can purchase a US Skype number and use it here in Canada? We would set up a subscription for calls in Canada and the US but he would like to be able to see incoming calls on his computer in a small window and record it for interviews that he conducts for business (with permission of course).

Bought Iphone! But don't want to use it for calling! How to activate it ???

Hi,
just bought an Iphone but don't want use it for calling is there a way to activate it without having a contract with at&t or so! I mean I am not sure if there is a way to do this if anybody knows if it's possible and knows how to do it, I would be very THANKFULLLLLLLL!!!! I need help prettty fast thanks so much!

Why start a new thread on the same topic as before the answers will all be the same you have to activate the iPhone through iTunes and sign a contract with AT&T to activate the iPhone otherwise you wont be able to take pictures or listen to music or use other features, didn't you do any research on the iPhone before purchasing it??? Sounds like you need to return your iPhone where you bought it and just pay the restocking fee and call it good.

Using skype to call u.s

i am traveling in france can i use wifi to call back to the states? what package rate is available?

Hi,
In short answer would be yes, you can call back to US over wifi and available subscriptions can be found: http://www.skype.com/intl/en-us/prices/pay-monthly-extra#US
Regarding subscriptions, it only matters where you are calling TO, it doesn't matter if you are in France, Germany or any other country. Make sure you purchase a subscription that covers your calling destinations.

Using Skype Video Calling

Does anyone know if you can make a Skype-to-Skype video call between an iPhone and an Android-based phone running Skype mobile?
Skype's video calling sure works great between my iPod touch 4 and iPhone 4. I like it better than FaceTime.

Traveling abroad and want to use skype on my mobil...

I will be traveling abroad to Costa Rica and Nicaragua and taking my mobile phone with me. I will be able to use my phone to connect to the internet whenever wi-fi is available. I will not be able to use my phone for regular calling. So, I want to know if I can make calls through skype using my phone as long as I am connected to the internet through wi-fi? My calls will be to regular landlines or mobiles, not to skype numbers. I will therefore add skype credit once I know that I will be able to call.
Thank you

I can understand how this might happen but I think you posted in the wrong forum...if you're planning on using free wifi sites. Skype wi-fi is to pay for service in hotspots where wifi isn't free. See this link for an explanation:
http://www.skype.com/intl/en-us/features/allfeatures/skype-wifi/
In any case, yes, if you have wifi service, free or paid, Skype on your phone, and credits available, you can call landlines or mobiles with Skype. The rate for the calls will depend on the country you're callling. You can see the rates here:

First time using Skype to call

Hello!
I live in Fla and I am goint to Brazil. Because this is the first time, I want be sure I will do the right thing: I have skype on my cell phone, i can buy credits to talk with my family and friends in Brazil and USA. I need to be in a place with WiFI and I just dial the number? How I shoud do? Sorry, I am a old lady and not smart at all with new " toys ". No roaming? Thanks!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi DaniaFlo2013!
Yes, you will need to be in a place where there is WiFi so that you can connect to Skype and then you just need to dial the number you want to call on the Skype dial pad. Make sure that you disable data connection from your provider to avoid roaming charges.
Please also take note that you will need Skype Credit or a subscription so that you can call normal phone numbers on Skype. You can view our subscriptions by visiting the link below and type the country you want to call on the "Find country" search box:
http://www.skype.com/en/rates/
But if you are just calling another Skype user than it should be free.
Also, depending on what your phone is, you can choose the correct link below on how you can dial on the Skype dial pad:
