Multiple skype accounts - business and personal.

I have used skype for quite some time now, and I have a personal account that I always use. However my company is requiring that I log in my business account from time to time and use the Skype Business client. Are there any major differences between the business and free client? Can I login my personal account from the business client?

No, the system isn't setup to let us do things like that...this question comes up very frequently and there just isn't a work-around.
Maybe you should try pinging Apple with feedback, especially from the enterprise side, and see if that helps.

  • I have business and personal e-mail accounts with different contacts. Can I have more than one address book on my iPhone?

    I have business and personal e-mail accounts with different contacts. Can I have more than one address book on my iPhone?

    Set up an additional user account and use one for work and one for personal stuff - each will have a separate address book. Turn on fast user switching for easy switching between the two.

  • Does anybody know how I can run multiple skype accounts on my macbook air?  I found workarounds on youtube, followed the steps to set-up a second skype account but I can't login using the second account.

    How do I run multiple skype accounts on my macbook air.  I'm using MAC OS X 10.6.8.  I followed the workaround steps on youtube to set up a skype b account (application and folder) but when I open the skype b account I can't login. I get an error message saying "please check your network settings and try again".  My 1 skype account works but I need to run 2 skype accounts at the same time, 1 for a client and my own personal account.
    Thanks

  • Separate business and personal contacts/calendar on Exchange enabled phone?

    I'm a new iPhone user (3gsi) with Exchange support enabled. What I would like to do is manage my business and personal contacts and calendar separately with work items syncing with Exchange and personal items with something else (like Google Calendar/Contacts). Is it possible to separate this way and possibly even manage it all together using the existing calendar and contact apps? I am not interested in the MobileMe service.
    Example - I add a personal contact and I dont want it to sync with Exchange, but Google contacts would be nice. Or I add a calendar item that I want to sync with Google calendar instead of Exchange.
    Thx!

    With an Exchange account syncing business contacts and calendar events over the air, you can also sync personal contacts and calender events direct with a supported application on your computer via the iTunes sync process. You can view business and personal contacts and calendar events combined or separately on the iPhone.
    With Windows, this can be with Outlook 2003 or 2007. With a Mac, this can be with the Address Book and iCal.
    Or you can sync personal contacts and calendar events over the air with a MobileMe account while doing the same for business contacts and calendar events with an Exchange account.
    You can access a Gmail account as an Exchange account via ActiveSync with the iPhone's Mail client, which provides for syncing personal contacts and calendar events over the air, but you can't access two Exchange accounts via ActiveSync with the iPhone's Mail client. This is not supported with ActiveSync with a Windows Mobile device either.

  • Keeping Business and Personal Contacts Separate?

    I have a MS Exchange account at work and use Entourage for my personal contacts on my home computer.
    Would it be possible to have both sets of info sync to my phone? I know the iphone has active sync for the Exchange data but then, would it be possible to sync with my home computer without having them then uploaded to my company's exchange server next time activesync connects?
    I imagine a lot of people would want to do something like this??

  • Multiple Skype Accounts - is it possible on a Mac?

    Been able to find the solution if running on a windows pc how to have multiple skype accounts running but does anyone know if this is possible on macs?

    Yes, I know. It is possible.
    You shall write the following bash script (e.g. SkypeLauncherOSX.sh)
    #!/bin/bash
    unlink ~/Library/Application\ Support/Skype/Skype.pid
    open -na Skype
      and make it executable
    cmod +x SkypeLauncherOSX.sh
    It worked perfectly with my Skype 7.7(335) on my OS X Yosemite 10.10.3. I could lanch and perfectly run three parallel instances.
    I managed to fork the attached equivalent application. I just could not set the proper icon, the generic icon is shown on my system instead.
    I look forward to your feedbacks.

  • Multiple Skype Accounts Grandstream GXW4004 FXS An...

    Hello All,
    I am looking at purchasing a Granstream GXW4004 FXS Analog Gateway, however I need to be able to run multiple skype accounts to it. This particular model has 4 fxs ports and I think it means I can connect four skype accounts, but the brochure says something about "two profiles" so I was hoping someone here could clarify.
    Thanks
    *edit
    I called the manufacturer and they said it would do what I wanted.

    SKYPE is having huge issues with third party phones, something happened about a month ago and I am having LOTS of issues with running SKYPE on my GrandStream phone.... WAIT until they fix thier issues ...  Grandstream is blaming the proprieary SKYPE software you have to run... and SKYPE is blaming Grandstream....  they DO NOT play well together.
    My advise is look at other options for now!  I am

  • Freetalk with multiple Skype accounts?

    Is it possible to associate multiple skype accounts with a single Freetalk phone adapter?
    I would like to put our home cordless phone to a Freetalk adapter but allow each family member to have their own skype account and online phone number for non-skype friends and family to call. I only expect one call at a time but wondered if Freetalk adapter would support multiple skype accounts?

    Only one Skype account at a time can be logged into the connect me.

  • Skype account blocked and they won't unblock it.

    I had this really old skype account, I believe I created it when they released skype, but I had like 7 contacts or less, and used it like once a month, sometimes once a year, I don't know. But I used msn messenger a lot, and my account was really old aswell, and when they merged it with skype, I had to merge my accounts, so that's what I did. but at that time, it was so complicated, you had like two contact lists, on the same software you could send messages as a messenger account, or a skype account, to messenger or skype contacts, and it was really not user friendly, it was impossible to use, even tried to clean my list, deleting duplicated entries, people i never talked to, but still didn't do it, so once again, I abandoned skype and went to facebook. so last year I went away and wanted to do a video call to my girlfriend, so we installed skype. I didn't remember what account name I should use, or wich password was correct, and for some reason my account got blocked. i'm not even sure that i entered a wrong password, but it got blocked anyway. when i tried to retrieve it, said i had to contact support and cmon, to reset your password you have to contact support???? no thanks, decided not to use skype again, and made a video call with facebook.  but as of this week, I wanted to make a video call from my android phone, and decided to give skype another go, people told me that it was a good video app, so why not. and there was i trying to retrieve my password, when i ran through this form to fill with a lot of irrelevant information: if i "used credit card to pay for a skype service or if i used paypal." how the hell should i remember a thing i did once in my life and many years ago? i don't know if i used credit card or paypal, how should i know wich credit card i used? ok, next field: "what email address you provided when you registered." ok, when i registered my first skype account, or my messenger email wich i merged later? because i don't know what email i was using back when they launched skype, ffs. so i put my messenger email and procceeded. next question, when did i create my skype account (year AND month). again, my old account, or the one i merged later? and how the hell should i freaking now the year or even the month i created it??? was like centuries ago, cmon!!?! next question, "provide five names that are in your contact list." heck, I had hundreds of people on my messenger, wich i often deleted and replaced, and barely 5 or 7 contacts on skype, wich i never used, and when they merged, i reorganized my list, so i had no idea wich list they were talking about, or who was on it. next question, "what is the total cost of a recent order that you have made." you're kidding, right? next, on what date did you place the recent order (dd/mm/yy)? ... next, "please provide two phone numbers that you have recently called or contacted using skype." god, i tried to order a pizza once, and i called my mother another time, but how am i supposed to remember wich pizza place, and if i called mother at home, work, cellphone 1, 2, or what? jesus. I answered the other questions properly, but apparently they 'don't have enough information to retrieve my account" thanks microsoft. I really wanted to use that account, since it's linked with my microsoft email, wich is also my xbox live account, and some other stuff, and I don't want to have 2 ms addresses, but ok, i really needed to make a video call, so i tried to create another account. I was on my pc trying to solve this problem, so I opened skype website and clicked create account. luckily (or is it?) there was an option to create account with facebook, so that's what I did. and when I went to my phone to login, bam, no option to log in with facebook, and when you create an account that way, you just don't have a name or password to log in on your mobile. good job ms! thanks for ruining my day, and good luck beating apple, google or facebook when you keep treating your costumers like **bleep**.  

    I've recently noticed that my skype account has been blocked. I don't know what the issue is. I have the password, but it won't let me make calls. I have cash on the account too. But now it is requesting me to fill in forms. What year did I set up my account? 10 years ago or so, maybe 11, maybe 9, 8, 7, not sure. What card did I use to last put money on it.... not sure, it was about a year ago, debit or credit? Can't remember. But out of the 10 questions, I seem to have got one wrong, but it won't tell me which one. I have asked customer service for help, but the genius just asked me to refill in the form. I did again, same issue, something wrong (waiting for 24 hours for failure notification on both occasions) I've asked him to point out what is wrong, but genius refuses to. Honestly, a pathetic customer service experience. 0/100 score. Just some autogenerated BS from India. I've had to now set up an entirely new Skype account. So warning, if your account is blocked, don't bother with customer service. They are useless. Just set up a new account and forget about what ever cash is on your account. Thanks Skype!! 

  • Business and personal contacts

    I use my iphone5 for business and personal. I want to have 2 completely separate lists for business and personal contacts. I know I can use groups but I want 2 completely separate lists, 2 different buttons on the screen.

    Then look for an app in the app store, as iOS does not provide what you're looking for.

  • Skype account deletion and no support available.

    Hi, i am trying to delete skype account, i have filled up dummy texts in my profile as shown in the support page of how to delete account.and the answer tell me to contact skype support for further actions, but there are only two options on support page, "skype community" and "chat". Community shows me the same procedure and when i open chat, no one from skype comes online to chat, when i try to text in chat, it says You are not currently in a chat session. I tried 4 times and I waited for 15 minutes everytime but no one comes online. Can anyone tell me the exact way to contact skype for account deletion?

    Hi, Pistachioqwerty and Mitaveliki,
    I am sorry to read of your experiences in contacting Skype Customer Service.  Please post back with the details of which web browsers you used in your attempts to contact Customer Service as well as which mobile device or computer you used and its operating system.  More importantly, please indicate the steps you took (what you clicked on, exactly) and at which point in the process your progress was halted.
    If you can provide screen shots, particularly if error messages are displayed, that would be most helpful.  Please ensure no personally identifiable information is revealed when you upload your screen shots here.
    Thank you in advance,

  • Why is the "From:" field being changed in Mac Mail.  I have multiple gmail accounts setup and it seems to change the "FROM" field even though I've selected which account to use to send the email.

    So
    I've got multiple gmail accounts setup in Mac Mail.
    Somtimes when I send or forward emails, it uses the wrong FROM field even though I'm declaring
    specifically which account to use.
    This becomes apparent when the person replies to my message and it goes to the wrong account

    Check you accounts in Mail and make sure each account has the correct outgoing server address. Check the box to use only that server.
    Second, go to the gmail website and in settings under the account tab, make sure you have the correct settings for replying to messages.

  • Both business and personal icloud acts on one device?

    I have a personal iCloud account that I use for business on my iPhone and the business Computer...Can I create an iCloud account for business and keep them separate or am I stuck with having everything personal (notes, calendars etc.) on the business computer?  And if so, if I delete the personal account off my phone, does my contacts stay on the phone?

    You can add a second account in System Preferences/Settings>Mail, Contacts & Calendars. The data will appear alongside the original account; you won't get 'Push' email - it will check the server periodically - and you can't use PhotoStream with the secondary account.
    Signing out of an iCloud removes the data from the device because it all lives on the server and is read from there by the device (like webmail). When you sign back in it reappears.
    You might want to think about business use though: iCloud is positioned for personal use - the email service has no telephone support and no guaranteed uptime, and using an @icloud.com address indicates that you are using a free service. If I were in business I would use a proper business account with full support (it might still be cheaper than business lost through any mail outages) and my own domain name for the address (which isn't expensive).

  • Warning! Skype account hacked and money stolen

    I feel it is important that Skype users be warned of their vulnerability to Internet theft and take the appropriate action.
    All persons with Skype pre-approved payment agreements through Paypal should seriously consider cancelling these agreements immediately. The urgency to take this action is for the following reasons:
    1. Paypal considers the theft of a Skype prepaid account as "not an instance of unauthorized account activity" and will not refund monies stolen under these circumstances.
    2. Skype has indicated that it is "not liable, and is unable to refund any money that has been lost because of this incident."
    After losing almost $100 in unauthorized Skype usage on June 30, 2011, I feel all Skype users should be notified of their vulnerability and be aware that neither Skype nor Paypal will refund money stolen from pre-approved agreements.

    This is crazy !!!
    Lose a login ..create another one and do all the weird dance to POST a reply. Man ..this is where skype starts to DIE ..
    Same story !!!
    Account password changed suddenly and ofcourse the EMAIL was changed as well.
    And IM aghast at seeing how many such accounts and for how long has these been going on and SKYPE does nothing.
    A simple solution is - when a user is changing EMAIL address, do it via the OLD address only. So if i created a login name ABC thru [email protected] (the first email id) - anytime the user wants to change it, treat it like the Password change TOKEN process. This way NO UNauthorized genius can LOCK some user out.
    Maybe some secret questions etc.? 
    other techniques.
    But how does
    - some steal passwords from ur systems?
    - or you wud say its random generators?
    - And credit card FREQUENCY usage? can users set something there? that I wud NOT change my Skype account for more 10$ everyday? or everyweek?
    And ..HOPE you guys are NOT storing credit card INFO in the system?
    and money wise - there shud be a way to STOP auto-recharge option?  Or stop from blowing over like above.

  • Skype account suspended and customer support will ...

    My Skype account was suspended by MS without any reason, I am 100% sure I have not violated any terms and conditions or even done anything out of the ordinary with my Skype accout.
    I have contacted customer support on multiple occations and they keep telling me to fill out the account recovery form. Every time I do this they email me back saying to fill out the account recovery form if I want to recover my account, so I am stuck in an infinite loop. The customer service representatives don't even seem to be real humans as they just give a canned reply and don't tell me how to fix this issue. There is no phone number to talk to a real human being so I am now stuck without access to my account and Skype has stolen my money since there was credit on the account.
    I will never purchase another Microsoft product again if this is how Microsoft treats their customers, I already own both Mac and PCs and I will simply use Mac from now on. Apple would never treat their customers with such distain.
    Microsoft, time to own up to your massive failing in this matter and resolve the issue.
    The service request number is SRX1267148237ID.

    what exactly does the customer support say or require you to do?
