No connection with my Skype number - Chile

Hi,
I have paid for a online number from Chile (currently living in Australia) and it has been working propertly until last week.
However, my family now is unable to contact me to that number. I know that in Chile was implemented a change in the way you call national numbers, you have to add the digit 2 in front of your number.
Please your help,
Regards,
Jose.

Your post was a great help to me. I have not been able to connect to Chile for a few weeks, even though I have paid for a subscription. The online support agent from skype was not able to help me either.
I tried putting a 2 in front of the number i wanted to call, and it worked.
Thanks very much.

    ipad not connected to computer. erreo number (0xE8000084)

    Hello Mohamed Abdo,
    It sounds like you are unable to connect your iPad to the computer because you get this error code when you try. I would use the troubleshooting for these types of errors from the following article:
    iOS: Unknown error containing '0xE' when connecting to a Windows PC
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3221
    Start with these steps, and there are additional steps in the article if you need them:
    1. Restart your computer.
    2. Install the latest version of iTunes.
    3. Verify that your computer meets the minimum system requirements. iOS devices require the following minimum version of Windows:
    Windows XP Service Pack 3
    Windows Vista
    Windows 7
    Windows 8
    4. Download and install any available software updates from Microsoft.
    5. Connect the device directly to your computer; not to an external USB hub. Find out if your computer has USB 2.0 ports.
    6. Check that the Dock Connector or Lightning Connector on both the device and cable are clean of any lint or other debris. If possible, connect your device using a different Apple 30-pin to USB cable or Apple Lightning Connector to USB cable.
    7. Disconnect other USB peripherals from your computer, with the exception of your keyboard and mouse. After disconnecting these peripherals, restart your computer, connect your device, and open iTunes.
    8. Connect your device to a different USB port on your computer.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Take care,
    Sterling

  • Need help with understanding Skype Number please

    Hi there,
    Not sure if this is posted twice!
    I live in the UK and am trying to offer online coaching through a company in America. I can only offer live chat sessions if I have a US or Canadian number. Is it a Skype Number that I need? Why would it matter which State I choose - will people only be able to contact me from that State?
    Would be really grateful for some clarity.
    Many thanks,
    Solved!

    Hi, Tracy255, and welcome to the Community,
    Unfortunately, for several reasons, Skype Numbers are not available in Canada.
    The concept of any virtual number is to provide a way for people who do not have accounts on the service to contact the subscriber, but using a fixed line or land line number.  In the case of Skype Numbers in the United States, the best scenario would be to have a number set up where most of your customers would be able to call without incurring high toll charges or ideally no toll charges.  Of note, not all states participate in the Skype Number program, again for any number of legitimate reasons.
    Skype does not offer "toll-free" numbers.
    Here is a link to the library of FAQ articles related to Skype Numbers seeing as I believe you will have more questions than I have provided information for!
    https://support.skype.com/en/category/ONLINE_NUMBE​R_SKYPEIN/
    Please pardon the naming convention confusion; today's Skype Numbers where formerly known as Online Numbers or Skype In.
    Regards,
    Elaine

  • 13 apple ids connected with one phone number

    I've been bumping into this problem for several years now and it 's just getting worse. When Apple started Voice Pass I had to delete 69 registered products to get down to the 7 I currently own. I have always had only one email address, one password, and since 1997 one phone number. Yet somehow Apple has created multiple ids for me and there seems to be no way to get rid of them. I was in my Voice Pass today and tried to add my home phone number only to have the system kick out my registered number saying it was already registered to different customers. When I spoke to a senior advisor he had no idea where in Apple, Inc. he could find Voice Pass or Apple id's. He did, however, say I was registered 13 times. Needless to say, I have only registered once and the question is, "now what"?
    Thanks,
    Jeffrey

    I forgot to mention. This is 13 of the same account and I can only access one account. The others are in the system and are causing much confusion including now allowing me to use my main number in Voice Pass. They cannot be accessed by tech support and I can't change my phone number just to create a 14th account and what's to say Apple won't give me 13 ids on the new number?

  • I recently updated my MacBook Pro to the new software, and now my iMessage and my FaceTime are not connected with my computer. How do I get them to match so that I would be able to use my cellphone number?

    I recently updated my MacBook Pro to the new software, and now my iMessage and my FaceTime are not connected with my phone number like it is supposed to be. How do I get them to match so that I would be able to use my cellphone number on my notebook?

    To reset any OS X program just go to the folder and trash the affected files.
    Open a new Finder Window
    Click "Go" in the above status bar
    Click and HOLD the "option/alt" key and you will see "Library" now show in the above list
    Click Library while still holding the option/alt key and a new window will open with all of your system files
    Go to the preference file (NOT Preference Panes)
    Locate a file named <com.apple.FaceTime.bag.plist>
    Locate another file named <com.apple.FaceTime.plist>
    Locate the file <com.apple.iMessage.bag.plist>
    Drag the files to the trash
    Delete the trash
    Close FaceTime and iMessage if not already closed
    Relaunch FaceTime and iMessage from Applications folder
    This should reset the program back to default. You will have to put your information back into the program but it should work.
    Good Luck.

  • Is there any way I can use Skype Number with Viber...

    Hello. With my Skype Number is there any way I can use it with Viber? So I give my Skype NUmber to a friend and they add me on Viber? Or do I have to divert my skype numebr to my actual number?

    Hi, if you give your Skype number to your friend they can make a Viber Out call to that number if they have some viber credit. Calls to landlines are usually cheap but it depends where in the world your friend is calling from.
    Have you got a Viber account too ? Viber to Viber over the Internet is free, like Skype to Skype being free. Persoanally I have both networks now.
    Viber is on smartphones, some feature phones and there's a desktop app too. Your Viber account is based upon the mobile number you register and Viber recognises phone numbers of your contacts to see if they're registered on Viber too.

  • Skype number unreliable / not working?

    I am using Skype on a Galaxy S3.
    Ever since I signed up for a Skype number I have had people emailing me saying that they were unable to contact me on the Skype number that I gave them. This has become more frequent just recently and I have missed some important calls.
    When I call my Skype number from a landline it's a bit hit and miss if a connection is made.... sometimes I get "number not recognised" response from the landline. People who have attempted to call me report similar isssue or sometimes that the number is continually busy and does not go to voicemail.
    I called skype support yesterday via Live Chat and was talking to the support guy for 1h 20min and achieved nothing.... he blamed it on everything from my phone provider, internet provider, that my email account was overloaded etc etc ... I think the guy must have bored and was having a joke with me..... that or he was a complete and total utter ####### idiot.
    I have attached a screen shot showing settings on my Skype account page.
    Currently (23 Jan) my Skype number is not working at all... when I attempt to call from landline I
    get the message "the numebr that you have dialled has not been recognised"
    Anyone else having reliability issues with a Skype number? Unless I get the issue resolved I will be cancelling account as it is worthless to me in it's current working state.
    One more question.... I managed it yesterday, but cannot find it tooday, but how **bleep** do you get to the link for Live Chat.... all i do is get directed to send email???

    Hi, Seismic99,
    Please note the clause included in our Community Guidelines related to duplicate posting; duplicates have therefore been removed.
    Please also see my colleague, NormanM, has posted, above, in response to your first post.
    Here is a link to the instruction on how to contact Skype Customer Service:
    https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA10656/what-is-live-chat-support?
    Skype is aware of lingering problems with the website when contacting their customer service agents.  If you experience difficulty reaching Skype Customer Service or find yourself redirected back to the Community (or offered only the Community as a contact method), please try again using a different web browser and - important -  choosing a different path through the various drop-down menu options presented.
    Also, look to approve a pop-up dialogue box which would connect you to start an instant message chat with a customer service agent.  If you have pop-ups blocked in the browser settings, this will also block reaching an agent.

  • US skype number in the Netherlands

    Hi,
    Is it possible to get an us-number with skype for someone living the Netherlands ?
    Thanks.

    Hi, Brianable, and welcome to the Community,
    You are indeed correct: Skype Numbers are linked to or connected with the Skype account with which the subscription was started.  Your Skype account together with your Skype Number subscription(s) share the same voice mailbox.
    What others do in circumstances where they need to have a separate voice mail or forwarding is to  create a new account and then take out a separate Skype Number subscription.  Anticipating your next question, Skype does not permit the transfer of features or subscriptions from one account to another.  If you chose to divide or to split the Skype Number(s) amongst different accounts, cancel the Skype Number subscription you do not wish to keep on your first account. 
    Kind regards,
    Elaine

  • Skype number not working / long forwarding times

    Dear Team,
    my skype number is not working although I allowed everyone to call in my privacy settings.  This has been happening quite often and now it is already down all day.
    I put it on forwarding to my mobile number for now, but although i set the time to forwarding to one 2nd, it takes 20 seconds or so until my phone rings. Is this normal?
    Can you please help me fix this. And please don't send me the customer service link with which i should click my way through. I tried many times to "click find" my answer. I hope a discussion with a human being helps.
    Best,
    Joerg

    Hi, Maxchina, and welcome to the Community,
    My hands are tied - you asked not to be provided with instruction how to contact Skype Customer Service - which you would have to click your way through - and which I would normally recommend you do just to double-check nothing is awry with your Skype Number. 
    Our Community Guidelines do explain that this Community is not a branch of Skype Customer Service; no customer service agents monitor the posts here.  We here in the Community are not authorized to access Skype accountholder files or records.
    As far as the delay in forwarding, have you tried to set your "number of rings" setting in your client software settings to "0" (zero)?  Sometimes that does the trick.
    Kind regards,
    Elaine

  • Listing Skype Number in local telephone directory ...

    What is the process for getting a listing in the local (Ireland, in my case) telephone directory (phonebook) using my Skype Number (which is a geographic Dublin number, where I reside). The publishers of the directory (which is available online and distributed throughout the area in paper form) indicate that only service providers can update the telephone directory. I know that other PSTN and VOIP service providers add/update phonebook listings for their users. What about Skype?
    So what is the process for doing this with Skype Numbers? It is important to us that we can be listed in the telephone directory with our Skype Number.
    Thanks for your help.

    Hi Aimi,
       thanks for your response. However, I see that as a failure in Skype's duty as a service provider. I bought the Skype Number recently with the intention of holding on to it for the long term so that I could use it for my business, print it on brochures, letterheads and business cards etc. It is important that I be able to have it listed in the business pages of my local area telephone directory and in the online telephone directory. Surely you can see that as a reasonable expectation. Only service providers can update this directory. Otherwise I would do it myself. The publishers won't deal with individuals or individual busineses - only telephone service providers, so I need your help with this.
       I'm sure that other service providers have some churn in their number assignments too, but they don't use that as an excuse for not giving their customers a telephone directory listing. Skype needs to step up to the mark here and fulfill its responsibilities as a service provider and issuer of geographic telephone numbers.
       Are you saying that the only way I can do this is to transfer the number to another telephone service/VOIP provider and have them list it for me? In other words that having a Skype Number and a telephone directory listing with that number is not possible if Skype is the service provider?
    Thanks for your help.
       [All business owners thinking of using Skype Numbers, please watch out for the reply. This could influence your decision to use Skype or some other VOIP/SIP service provider.]

  • Bought Skype Number, but goes to someone else?

    I just got assigned a skype number, and I sent an SMS to it to verify it was working.  Instead of receiving it somewhere in my Skype account, someone responds asking who I am.  
    Apparently Skype sold me a phone number that's in use by someone else already?  What the hell, and how do I resolve this?

    Hi, Aeturnus, and welcome to the Community,
    Skype Numbers cannot receive SMS messages ...
    For problems with your Skype Number, please contact Skype customer service for assistance.  Here is a link to the instruction on how to contact Skype Customer Service via their secure portal: Contact Customer Service
    As you know you intend to contact Customer Service, skip past Step 2 of the instruction where several articles from the FAQ library will appear for you to review, and proceed to Step 3, Continue Support Request (the "button" appears at the lower right corner of the website page). You may also skip past in Step 4 where you will be referred back here to the Community; no need to do this as the Community is where you started.
