Privacy when using Skype on iPhone 4 with WiFi onl...

I use Skype on an iPhone 4 via wifi on my home network which runs through a Mac, etc. I do not have SIM card in my phone because I don't use cell service on the phone. In this scenario, can my Skype calls be tapped. I'm concerned about an individual and thought I should ask at the source. Internet search results are mixed. Thanks.

Thanks. Everything is good, re: your suggestions. What I was wondering was whether or not someone could "listen" to calls. But from what I've read elsewhere, my understanding is Skype calls are encrypted. So that, plus your suggestions, would mean no, Skype calls cannot be tapped. Correct?
yes, and in addition, users can only initiate/receive/entertain calls/video calls in one computer/device at a time.

In Guildwar 1 Skype worked wonderfully but in 2 I can play the game with no interferrence solo but when I play with other players I get a continuous bleep sound coming from my computer box. I have moved Hub and anything that could cause interferance even uninstalled and reinstalled skype but the bleep sound is still there when playing with people on skype. I have raised this question with them to see if they have the same problem but they dont, hence the reason for help from skype? before I go further into it. Can anyone help. I have been in contact with my IT guys and they say that there is some sort of interferrance being caused can skype isolate that to prevent this bleeping>
Also on the previous version of Skype I was able to close current conversation with people unfortunately now I have to close down my system to terminate call can you advise about this also.

Well, you're wrong, & in fact not only is it locked, GCI does not offer unlocking for iPhones.
Fact is your post won't help the OP.
And you are 100% sure its locked to them? How can you know this? While GCI does not offer unlocking that does not mean the phone is actually locked to it. Get off your high horse.
Its possible the original owner had an unlocked phone. he was using with GCI. Or that GCI doesn't actually have locked phones. Seeing as they don't even have their own infrastructure but instead use AT&T's I doubt they'd have iPhones specifically locked to them and that would be the reason they do not offer unlocking (because there's nothing for them to unlock). And just to clarify, I'm not saying for a fact its not locked to them. It very well maybe be, but without knowing more about the phone and going by the fact GCI uses AT&T infrastrucure its possible its not locked. But here's no way to say for sure either way.
Trying a Sim card from AT&T or another carrier might just help the OP if its actually unlocked or locked to AT&T rather than GCI.

I accidentaly clicked "remove" when using find my iphone...how do I log in when my iphone is not with me to find it?

i was using "find my iphone" and when given the location it was an old location. A post read that the iphone was either turned off or the wifi was not being used. A remove or cancel button appears with this message. I accidentally clicked cancel and now when trying to retrive information about the location of my device it says that I must refresh page or set up instructions. There must be a way to reinstate my account without my device physically present but I do not know how...can someone help me?

What ever device you still have on had. Go to settings - general - about - name - then the name.
I have 4 devices 2 iphone and ipad - which I've name differently so I don't get confused when using find my iphone.

When using Skype my IPad sounds like ocean. This is not a problem when I am on FaceTime or using other apps with sound. Recently updated to newest IOS 7. First there was no sound for Kype and found that had to turn microphone sound on.

When using Skype my IPad 2 now sounds like the ocean and I can barely here my contact. This happened recently after IOS7 update. I did turn the microphone on for Skype as it was required after update. Now my sound is terrible but only a problem when using Skype video call. It is okay for FaceTime.

Thank you! Resetting resolved the issue with terrible sound when trying to use skype. Sounds much better!
I am not sure what all changed when reset was applied to settings --- assume it defaults back to basic settings. I have no idea what I had customized, so will slowly figure out. I have noticed several things. So far I had to add back my wallpaper and reenter password to get back on my wi-fi.
At least SKYPE is now audible.

When using Skype with my MBA people can't hear me but I can hear them. Please help!

IMessage in my iPhone 4 stopped working over 3G and now its only working when i connect my iPhone to Wifi!!! please help

as mentioned in the subject. i was enjoying sending msgs using iMessage using 3G internet connection but since yesterday my iMessage stopped working and now its only working when i connect my iPhone to Wifi !!!
without WiFi it show my Message Not Delivered in Red !!
and this issue not only with me.. even with my freind. so please help to find a solution

I know why. It happened to me before. Try typing random stuff, eg aaasjddjfndirinfekdnkedindor , into the text box, then delete everything using the x-arrow on the keyboard. It should work now. If not, repeat the process again and again. It's because it needs to send the signal to the other recipient(without him really knowing it, this is to check that he can see when you are typing, you know, the "…" bubble), then check that you have 3G at good speed, then enables iMessage. It works for me this way...hope it does for you too (:

HT1296 When I sync my iphone with Windows 7, the contact moves to my computer, but the contact is not complete. No phone numbers. What am I doing wrong? I have also tried sync-ing with Yahoo, and that doesn't work either.

The music sync is one way - computer to iphone. The only exception is itunes purchases. File>Transfer Purchases
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion. Use your backup copy to move everything to your new computer.

When i sync my iphone with my computer IT WANTS TO DELETE MY APPS.

when i sync my iphone with my computer IT WANTS TO DELETE MY APPS.

Why is it that when I "sync" my iphone with iTunes, apps which I deleted since the previous backup appeared in my iPhone?

Hi,
I am using latest version of iOS (5.0.1) and iPhone 4.
My question is stated in the title. I wish to sync iTunes according to my current iPhone settings (i.e. backup my current settings from my iPhone to iTunes), not reinstall apps which I have already deleted.
But when I "sync" my iphone with iTunes, apps which I deleted since the previous backup suddenly appeared in my iPhone.
Any advice is appreciated, thanks.

When you sync your phone check the Apps tab in your iTunes sync settings (not the Apps folder under Library on the left sidebar) and confirm that the apps you don't want on your phone are unchecked prior to syncing.

When I updated by iphone with IOS7, my calendar entries did not follow the icloud. I am only showing pre set calendar entries for the year?

When I updated by iphone with IOS7, my calendar entries did not follow the icloud. I am only showing pre set calendar entries for the year and lost all other calendar entrie and it will not take any new entries. They show up in my outlook, but not on my iphone, which they did before I updated my software to the new i0s7

Before syncing, select each calendar on your Mac and back it up by going to File>Export>Export. If anything goes missing, you can use these to restore your calendars.
Have you tried simply force closing the calendar app on your iPhone? To do this, double-tap the home button, locate the calendar app, then swipe up on the image above the app icloud to close it and tap the home bottom. Then test your calendar again.

Microphone not working when using skype. Problem i...

When using skype, my internal mic is not working properly - friend says he cant hear the voice, but can hear other sounds - music on youtube for example. Ive tested microphone on Skype Echo - it was not working at all. I have tested it on Voice recorder - microphone was working properly. Also when I just started using this laptop (3 days ago) i have talked with friend through Skype for about 3 hours, and then he could not hear me annymore suddenly. So something is wrong with skype. Computer advisor suggested me to contact skype support tehnicians.
Solved!
