Yes was the answer which is helpful. If my computer is on but not on Skype how will I know that a call is coming in ...You would not be able to tell if an incoming call is ringing if you are not logged in on Skype. If you are not signed on to Skype, there are two options:- The call is routed to voice mail- You set up call forwarding to a mobile or fixed line number, either of which requires a Skype Subscription or that you purchase Skype Credit to pay for call fees.- Look to set up SpinVox, which will send you a fairly good translation of a voice mail message to a text message. The SMS messages usually arrive within five to 15 minutes of a voice mail being recorded. CRY1 wrote:

Skype phone number being used for harassment and p...

The user with the Skype number 661-748-0240 has been reported by MANY people to be engaging in harassment and phishing (i.e. claiming to be Microsoft technical support).
Here are 12 pages of complaints about this user: http://800notes.com/Phone.aspx/1-661-748-0240
I think it goes without saying that this user should be permanently banned. I'm pretty sure this isn't the right way to report a user, but I couldn't find a way to contact Skype privately or report a user on the website.

What is my Skype phone number?

How do I find out my skype phone number I dont know it

Hi, john.bell980, and welcome to the Community,
Sign on to your Skype account dashboard where you manage your payment methods and subscriptions. You should see a tile that says Skype Number; if you click on that icon/box/tile, your number will be shown.
Regards,
Elaine

My skype phone number

I just set up a new skype account and not clear what my phone number is for this account. The account number listed is [removed for privacy]. I want to be able to provide this number to my friends.

It should be accessible from your Skype program or app. Otherwise, log into your account on the Skype web site using the "Account" link at the top of this page. Then click on Online Number, and you will see a list of Online Numbers on your Skype account.

Skype phone number for my business as an expatriate

Hello everyone, I am looking to use skype for my business, more exactly, I am an expatriate and I need to buy/use a skype phone number that has the same format as local numbers have in my homeland. Before I invest in one of those numbers, what I would like to know - for sure - is: 1 - Are skype numbers like any other landline numbers, meaning is there any way a client finds out the number he/she is calling is not a genuine/regular landline number? 2 - If the client is let's say in Canada, my skype number looks like a local French landline (eg: 0141315184) number, and my computer is in Zimbabwe, will the client pay more than if the computer was in France?. 3 - If the client again calls from Canada, dialing my skype number will be as for regular landlines right? eg: +33[removed for privacy] Thank you in advance for support.

Receiving sms to skype phone number

Hi, I'm wondering if it's possible to receive SMS texts to your skype phone number? I have a phone number associated with my skype account and would like to send as well as receive to this number.

This does not work for me.
I am on Skype 5.7.0.1130 for the Mac.
In the Skypereferences . . . :Messaging windoid.
I click on the "Set Number..." dropdown menu and type in my mobile phone number. I keep getting the message that "Error on sending code to mobile phone" etc.
Now -- perhaps this is my issue, I have a brand new Skype mobile phone number for Germany. So new that I just got it two days ago. I was expecting to be able to send and receive text messages on this -- primarily from my bank and places like that which send you secret codes to your SMS when you are trying to log in. Does this work? Can it work? Why is it so hard to actually talk to a Skype Customer Support person??

Can I change my Skype Phone Number?

I just purchased a Skype phone number with a Florida number. I need to change it to a Texas number due to work requirements. How do I go about doing this without incurring additional charges?

Skype phone number - auto renew?

Some months ago, I bought a Skype phone number.
I've never used it and don't want it to renew.
I paid for the phone nuimber for a year via paypal. I don't want it to auto-renew. Is their any way to check to see if it's set to auto-renew, or how do I make sure they don't renew it?

you need to CANCEL the Skype Number in your account, otherwise it will automatically renew using the same payment method as before
sign in to your account at www.skype.com, and click on the Skype Number tile
then, on the next screen, click on Settings under your Skype Number
finally click on Cancel Skype Number

My family and I share the same account of apple. I'm getting phone calls and messages from my mothers and my number and vice versa. is there anything we can do

my family and I share the same account of apple. I'm getting phone calls and messages from my mothers and my number and vice versa. is there anything we can do

The short solution is to go to Settings > FaceTime > iPhone Cellular Calls OFF.
However, as Csound points out, you should not really be sharing an Apple ID with anyone. See: How to Stop Sharing an Apple ID.

Lightroom refuses the correct serial number. Creative Suite stop working. Adobe is treating people with total disrespect and does not even have a phone number where we could call. I will move soon to other software,

Creative Suite stop working after backing up the program from Time Machine. Adobe is treating people with total disrespect and does not even have a phone number where we could call. I will move soon to other software. I paid for the software and it is totally abusive this behavior from Adobe.

Not all of Skype's Online Numbers can be used as Caller ID, appearing on the displays of phones you call from Skype. Online Numbers from a few countries (Chile, Denmark, Estonia, Hong Kong, Poland, Sweden, the UK and the US) can be used this way, where the others are not permitted to be used in this way. If your Online Number is not from one of the countries I listed above, then the only option would be to use the two-step verification process so that a mobile number (or a landline number that can receive SMS messages) is your Caller ID number when calling from Skype.
