Remote users of one Skype account

Hi.
I have a Skype account and have just added 2 new members to my team who will be working from home. Can I give them access to use my buisness Skype account to make calls form their own PCs in their own home or do I need to setup a new account with calls subscription for each of them on thier own machine?
Any advice will be gratefully received.

Hi, Language Angels, and welcome to the Community,
I would strongly urge a review the Terms of Use and Fair Usage policies prior to proceeding:  http://www.skype.com/en/legal/
Allowing multiple people to use one account is not only mentioned in the Terms of Use as not allowed, but could also find the account suspended as an anti-fraud measure.  Best to create new accounts and add the needed subscriptions and/or credit.   You might also research if Skype Manager would be useful:  http://www.skype.com/en/features/skype-manager/
Best regards,
Elaine

  • Use of multiple computers on one Skype account

    I'm trying to find out if we can have just one Skype account on multiple computers?  For instance, having one name and using it on both our travel laptop and our home desktop would be very helpful.  People wouldn't have to have two different contact listings to remember or keep track of to contact us!  Any help of suggestions would be appreciated.

    you can use your Skype account in any computer or device, as long as the Skype program or application is installed in it.

    I interpreted his post to mean that he meant multiple human users, not multiple devices.  Hopefully, he'll clarify.

  • Allowing multiple users on one Skype ID

    I was wondering if allowing multiple users online one Skype ID is possible, I currently run a small business, where the majority of the customers use skype just for text chatting, not the call features.
    I was looking to hire employees, but use the same skype thats associated with my current reputation. It also helps when I get return customers, since it'll be available to all workers.
    The last 2 times I tried setting this up, my skype got locked, and I wouldn't be able to afford for it to get locked.
    I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions about the feasibility of this.

    Being doing this idea for years and really was hoping for more development.
    Bottomline when a call comes in and either I answer the call or let my staff answer the call. Then later i can see what happened.
    Unfortunity each new call is not populating outlook with an automactic new record so notes could be made.
    Currently we name the client with notes on back end eg: John Smith ..wants to buy main street call back asap.
    This is crazy way to make notes on incoming calls but there no was to conert to a task or an appointment.... One day .....i can only dream.

  • I have two numbers on one skype account - how do I...

    My skype account has two numbers and I want to add one more, how do I allow answering of them separately?

    Hi, DHPE.Staff, and welcome to the Community,
    Unfortunately, Skype does not provide a facility to do this.  While a Skype account's incoming calls, whether to the Skype account itself or a Skype Number, can be forwarded to multiple mobile or land line numbers, each Skype Number purchased for an account is considered affiliated with that account and cannot be forwarded separately.
    The work-around people use is to create a new account for each Skype Number needed; that way call forwarding and caller ID can be differentiated between the numbers.
    The thing to be mindful of in doing this, however, is to use different payment methods, otherwise the payment methods and accounts may be trapped inadvertently by Skype's anti-fraud filters.  More details about this here:

  • Multiple users under one itunes account

    I have multiple mac's (both desktops and laptops) as well as multiple iphones and ipads at home.  I am limited in itunes to only 5 devices - what should i do?  set-up a different itunes account for my kids (but then they will not be able to access the music and movies that have already been purchased).
    Unsure how to best set-up 4 people (with each having an iphone, ipad and mac) itunes.
    Any suggestions?

    Ideally, each will have their own iTunes account.
    I am limited in itunes to only 5 devices
    Each iTunes account is limited to 5 computers but 10 devices.
    So you can have content from one iTunes account on 5 computers and also 5 iDevices.
    set-up a different itunes account for my kids (but then they will not be able to access the music and movies that have already been purchased).
    Yes, they will. Just authorize each computer for the other iTunes accounts.
    Make sure you go to iTunes prefs > Store and disable Automatic downloads.
    Also disable it on the iDevices in Settings > iTunes and App stores.
    You can share content between users/libraries by using Home Sharing.
    See this -> Understanding Home Sharing

  • Multiple computers and one SKYPE account

    I have SKYPE on a PC downloaded plus a subscription for unlimited phone calls.  I also want to use the same subscription on a laptop.  I haven't yet downloaded SKYPE to the laptop.  My goal is to download Skype on the laptop and use the same account and subscription as the one I downloaded and ordered from my PC.  
    Is there a way to download SKYPE to the new laptop without creating a new account?  Am I allowed to use the same SKYPE account from a PC, a LAPTOP, and also a smartphone?   Or does each require a unique skype account?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Before trying to isolate an issue, it's always best that one is running the latest Skype release. Which may in itself resolve the issue.
    A new version has just been released August 02, 2011:
    Please click the "Get Skype" link at the top of this page and download the normal version of Skype, NOT the beta version to get this new version.
    This new version is 5.5.0.113 to check what version you have, using the main Skype client window please do:
    Help -> About Skype
    Then simply choose the "Already have a Skype Name" option and enter your Skype name.
    NOTE: You can also backspace over any name in the logon window and enter your Skype name as well.

  • 4 users for one icloud account possible??

    We're four to five users at work, needing a way to all be able to work on one document, not necessarily at the same time. I'd like to set-up one icloud account we can all use. Is this possible? Will we have to login every single time??
    Each user has an IMac, iPhone and some an iPad too. We'd like to be able to use all of These devices to work on.
    please help....

    If the document is an iWork document (Pages, Numbers, Keynote), you can collaborate on it using the iCloud iWork beta apps and still maintain separate iCloud accounts for each person.  Here are some support documents that explain how:

  • Two Freetalks, two numbers, one Skype Account

    I have two freetalk 1200's, one in my home and one in our vacation home.  I also have two Skype numbers.  I'd like one Skype number to be associated (exclusivily) with the home Freetalk and the other number associated (exclusivily) with the vacation home.  To be clear I don't want them to ever BOTH ring when one number is called.  This is b/c we sometimes rent out the vacation home.  
    The Freetalk setup only allows you to associate it with a Skype account.  Both houses phones ring when either number is dialed.  Is the only solution to have two Skype accounts?  That would suck b/c it looks like if i cancel one of the numbers Skype is keeping the $30 i paid for it.
    Thanks!
    bc

    Unfortunately that would be your only solution.  If you want the device to act like a separate line, you have to have a separate line.  In this case, that would mean a separate account.  Purchasing a second number for 1 account means you actually want it to do exactly what it is doing.

  • Multiple Facetime users on one iTunes Account?

    I have an iTunes account that I registered my iPhone and my two daughters' iTouches on (so we can share music and apps). The problem is, I can't figure out how to log them on to Facetime since it seems to want my Apple ID. I figured out how to add their email addresses to my Apple account, but it still doesn't seem to recognize them. Is it even possible for them to each use Facetime on their own iTouch if we all share one iTunes account?

    Based on my experience, I would say initially use you Apple ID to setup the FT account on each iPod . Then add their individual email address and then delete the Apple ID account. That is what I did for my iPod. My Mac uses my Apple ID while my iPod uses an alternate email address.

  • 2 iPad users using one iTunes account.  how best to manage this?

    My wife and I both have ipads, ipods, and iphones.  We want to use one iTunes account but it has proven to be very frustrating.  any advice?

    as far as we can tell, iTunes has no concept that this is iPad1 and this is iPad2.  The only to manage sharing 80% same content but diferentiating on 20% is to manage EVERYTHING manually.  With lots of apps, movies, and 80GBs of songs, this is ridiculous.  We can't be the only couple who want one account but lots of different devices with different desired items on them.
    Some syncs can't be done manually so we have to go back and delete or add after the fact. Giant waste of time.
    iTunes on the iPad is a bit of a joke.  it doesn't seem to have any relationship to iTunes on our primary computer.  It doesn't actually function the same way (doesn't actually store downloaded items) which leads to iTunes confusion, frustration, and sometimes duplicate buying.
    I'm thinking I'll just wait for the cloud service but given apple's record with iTunes, I'm a little doubtful about that.  Appreciate the response.
