Skype desktop and Skype moder coexist

Hi All,
I'm using both the traditional skype client and the new modern. A small irritant is that both apps rings when someone is calling and it keeps to ring in the otherone after I have picked up. Is there some way to route the calls to only one of the apps? (Other than uninstall, of coure).

Perhaps you can try to to sign-out from one of them.

Some questions about Skype Manager and Skype Conne...

Hallo,
I found one of your post:
That, if I have some questions I may contact with Contact our solutions team
Sadly that link wont work...
I have few questions and also I contacted with Microsoft support, but sadly they wasn’t able to help me. Only what they suggests, that I may contact with Skype Team trough to Forum, or Facebook...
So, I choose first one and maybe you can help me, or redirect my question !?
About my questions:
As I understand Skype for business is just name what contain two free software, like Skype manager and Skype connect. Also those are free, without charge ?
Also I read that there are two different accounts, like Premium and regular one. Premium contains some benefit. So, If I use that Skype for business manager system to I may or can add some premium accounts for some my staff and leave others with regular account ? I don’t have that manager systems installed jet, but what I read, I understand that I maybe just split credit - or is there way how I may also share regular and premium conots ?
Also, Right now my customers have 25 workers, but what - if soon my another customer also want to use Skype Service, and he have 50 - 100 workers ? Will be there special price for different amount of users on one firm ?
And at last, firm who I represent right now are using Elion VoiP (Elion, is Estonian ISP) service, trough to xLite program.
Sadly that one wont work properly, it will hack, or you cant hear other people and so on. With, Skype everything works fine. So, if he will starting to use Skype manger and will make account for every workers (sips) can he bound those sips with same VoiP numbers what he will use right now with Elion ? Or if not, is there some way how to redirect those numbers (to lose those numbers, is sadly out of question) ?
I hope, you can help me guy´s.
Best regards
Rainer

Tere Rainer,
indeed we don't have the solutions team offer any longer. Let me try to answer some of your questions here.
Skype Manager and Skype Connect itself are free of charge. But obviously you can purchase and distribute paid products via Skype Manager.
Yes, you can freely distribute Premium subscription to Manager group members and leave others without. You can do the same with all kind of Skype products, e.g. Skype numbers, calling subscriptions etc.
There are no discounts with Skype Manager purchases. It's a tool to simplify administration.
Unfortunately you cannot transfer numbers to Skype connect. For more details on which features are supported and how they work please have a look here: https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA10549/what-is-skype-connect-and-how-does-it-work
I hope my answers could help a bit already.

Forward Skype number and Skype calls calls to different cell phones

Hello, A short assistance please.So, I understand that skype number fowards calls.Also, that a skype number is associated with a skype account. My questions: is it possible to forward the calls made to the skype number to one (cell) number and the ones to the skype account to different cell? *Or because the skype number and the skype account are associated to one another- I can only foward calls to one (Cell) phone. So lets say I have a skype account: ABCand a skype number that is associated to it: 123 Can I have calls to ABS forwarded to cell number A1and calls to 123 forwarded to call number A2? Thank you for helping out,Ben

Confused between Skype Numbers and Skype to Go

Please forgive a newbie asking dumb questions.I am interested in a Skype Number so people can call me but I see I already have a number under Skype to Go. What is that? Is it the same thing? I am totally confused.Do I apply for a new number? If so what do I do with the Skype to Go number?I am sure that I am missing the obvious.Please can someone give me an idiots guide.Thank you

Thank you very much jsp21c. Your reply is explicit.
But, still, I have problem when, I try to call with my S2G number from my mobile device.
Please note that, I have added in my account/skype to go, under Access number my contacts. But, when I call my S2G from my mobile device, either by using my contacts or an international number, I receive, always, message from the operator that I cannot connect. "We are just having a technical problem, please try again in a few minutes". I have been trying to use, this service, days now...
I have, also, tried Skype chat support. But, chat operator asks for my S2G number, which is personal information data, -since chat service is located allover the world, I cannot reveal my S2G number to a chat operator with unknown reference number and my S2G number be safe, afterwards-. If it haven't been, this, S2G number wouldn't be considered from Skype, a personal number not to be revealed.
Nevertheless, can you help me, on where else, can I contact to solve this technical S2G problem? Or, could I solve this problem by performing, myself, any other actions, and what these actions would be?

Developing AS3 for desktop and Android Smartphone coexistance

I have recently built a knowledge management web app which runs unchanged on desktop browsers and Flash on Android. The client side is written 100% in Flash AS3 which is unusual, so I thought I would share a couple of learning’s from the Android aspects of this development.
Overall it was remarkably straight forward after I worked out the right architecture. The trick is for every aspect of the code to be aware of the screen size and capabilities of the device being used. There is no point in trying to view large diagrams on a small screen, or just scale them down; you need to customise the display appropriately for the different screen size. In my case I changed display formats when the screen width is larger than 600pixels. You also need to make sure that the click areas are bigger when used on smaller screens
I used Flash CS5 for the development, but the only feature that I used that is not in CS4 was to find out whether the screen was touch enabled so I could adjust the button sizes. Click events and mouse_over events work fine with Flash on Android, so for simple interactions it is not necessary to use all the new CS5 touch events. The only problem I encountered was getting the HTML right on Android (e.g. viewports). This area still has a little work to be done.
Ok, a 100% Flash web application is a little unusual, but I wanted portability and my last programming was 20 years ago. AS3 was easy to learn using Google searches and these forums. The back end is PHP and MySql
You can find the app at http://www.line-manager.com/mobile.html . It was tested on a real Nexus One. The virtual Nexus One on Device Central was not much use as it said the Nexus One did not have a touch display! There are still a few issues to resolve but it’s ready for “Beta”. Performance appears fine on 3G and Wiifi.

Explain your credentials. Do you know AS2 or AS3 programming. Familiar with AIR SDK? Flex SDK? Flash Professional? Flash Builder? FDT + Eclipse?
Where you start greatly determines the recommendation. If none of the above is anything you would consider yourself to be familiar with, and books are your thing, you're a half dozen or more books from where you need to be.

How can I make Skype Desktop the default for Call: links in MS Outlook?

How can I persuade MS Outlook to use Skype Desktop for Call: links (such as those for phone numbers in a Contact Card)? Right now it is using Skype for Business to open them (I have both Skype Desktop and Skype for Business - formerly Lync - installed) and I need to use Skype Desktop by default instead. Office 365 Business (15.0.4727.1003) on Windows 8.1 Pro x64, with Skype Desktop v 7.6.whatever the latest is. Advice very welcome!

Skype number and TOM service

If I use the Skype TOM app because I am located in China, can I still make and receive phone calls using my Skype number?
Will Skype Connect and Skype Manager also work or are they seperate systems?
Thanks

Hi,
It is because you don't have an active Skype subscription on your account.
Only ACTIVE subscription allows you to receive a discount on your Skype Number.

I want to use my grey Mac G4 desktop to Skype. How and where do I connect a microphone

I want to use my grey Mac G4 desktop to Skype. How and where do I connect a microphone. Is it possible?

G4 Macs have no built video/webcams or microphones.
The best solutions are USB devices.
First, you need to determine the version of Skype that you can use. The newest Skype version 5 can only run on Macs with a min. OS X version of OS 10.5.8 Leopard.
Tthe older version of Skype that can run in your Mac is Skype 2.8 found here.
http://www.skype.com/intl/en/get-skype/on-your-computer/macosx/2-8/
There are not a lot of webcams or microphones that work with both Macs and Skype.
Here is the only webcam, from Logitech, that I was using on my previous G4 that was both PC and Mac compatible, but the requirements say you need 1.0 Ghz CPU and OS X 10.5.8 Leopard.
http://www.logitech.com/en-us/webcam-communications/webcams/hd-webcam-c615
Logitech also has a few Mac compatible USB headset audio/microphones, but don't mention Skype compatibilty.
You would need to buy and try to test.
Plantronics makes only one or two models that will work with Macs and general Internet Telephony and include Skype, also.
Here is one here.

Skype for Modern Windows and Skype for Windows Desktop on a tablet???

Hi All. I am a newby here so please be patient I have a 6 month old Toshiba Encore that comes installed with "Skype for Modern Windows". When I opened Skype today I received an advice/advert saying that this service will cease July 7 and I should uninstall and update to "Skype for Windows Desktop". News flash.... I have a tablet and it is telling me to install a Desktop version? Is this correct, dispite that my device is a (Windows 8.1) OS tablet, am I still required to make the conversion? Any advice most appreciated.

And just in case your next question is "Why". I am just a user like you so no inside knowledge but from what I have read it is partly down to the "Modern" version actually being based on "Old" tech, so it couldn't intergrate with the cloud based future of Skype and partly down to it isn't probably worth fixing (It had a lot of issues that I could see). Unfortunatly for some it is a bit inconvenient that it's being killed off before Windows 10 is released. The one thing I liked about the "Modern" version was the intergration with for example your contacts in the people app, but if you uninstall (Or when it gets killed off in a couple of weeks) you lose that intergration. I know you still have it in Outlook with intergration for the desktop version but to be honest Outlook isn't great on a seven inch tablet either. From my understanding when 10 is finally here and Skype catches up there will be full Skype intergration with your contacts again (Although I could be wrong and that is for the WP). Anyway, I for one would love MS to consider the universal app idea based on the WP version for smaller or all tablets. Maybe someone from Skype will reply?

Desktop (and other icons) change after Skype updat...

When I updated Skype to version 7.5 yesterday, some of my desktop and taskbar (also Start Menu) icons immediately disappeared, only to be replaced with standard Windows icons. This involved mostly Microsoft and Adobe programs, including Outlook, Word, Excel, Adobe Reader and Adobe Acrobat, but also Google Earth and QuickTime Player.
I carried out a Icon cache rebuild, but this did not restore the original icons, resulting instead in standard .exe icons or blank (i.e. white) icons. When I tried to change the icon for these programs, I got messages similar to this one (for Adobe Reader):
Windows cannot find file %SystemRoot%\Installer{AC76BA86-7AD7-1033-7B44-AC0F074E4100}\SC_Reader.ico.
Since then I've tried several system restores, and while these have always restored my icons, Skype then no longer works. I've also uninstalled Skype (which was a battle in itself!) and reinstalled the latest version, but the icon problem has returned. The generic icons DO open the programs without problems, but I cannot easily distinguish between the various Microsoft Office applications and Adobe programs.
As things currently stand, I can have either a working Skype or my desktop (taskbar etc.) icons, but not both. There must be some way around this. I am sure that Windows Installer is in some way involved, but can't undertand how updating or deleting Skype could affect it.

The issue is still related to the Windows installer. If you keep Windows up-to-date it should resolve any Windows installer issues with updates that came out after Aug 2014 (unless this a new Windows update issue). A Windows update at that time create a similar issue due to upgrading the Windows Installer then resolved them in later patches. The only way to notice the issue was to install any programs that utilized the Windows installer (like Skype). Some people uninstalled the update but it was a temporary fix (https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2918614). So either the issue you are having is related to that Windows update or possibly a newer one.
You can try this in case it helps but it's generally for normal shortcuts.
http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/49819-icon-cache-rebuild.html
If that doesn't help the only way to repair registered shortcuts automatically is to perform a repair install of the applications that are affected (via add/remove programs or programs and features in the control panel). This will restore the individual package to icon association that broke. Again these advertised shortcuts are tied to the Windows installer and registry. When you create a shortcut to the exe of a program (like msword.exe) it won't have this type of problem and will still display the normal shortcut even if you don't perform a repair of the application. If you still want to repair the issue a repair install would be best.

So here is the problem. Skype makes my pc totally useless. When I call someone, I get a notification that says "Amd display driver has crashed" or something like that. Thats one case, the good one. The bad one is that the whole thing freezes. I can't use anything, i have to hard reset the computer. It happens pretty often. I have tried to reinstall skype numerous times. I am running windows 8.1 64bit. Below you can find my diaxdg file.
Note that it also happens when I am called. Skype also refuses to use my webcam. I have no problem using for example the Camera app of windows 8. It shows its existence, but no video. I have tried changing usb ports. It may work at times, but for short periods.

Standby TV mode and Skype

Which TV can be taked out from standby by Skype ?
Or it is impossible at all ?
Also how Skype working in Panasonic ?
Is it working while you watching some TV chanel or HDMI input ?
Do i need login every time i turneв on the TV ?

I have the 32" LED (TXL32E30) and skype works out of the box with the panasonic cam. Good quality with TV-PC calls with latest skype download.
However on user experience fronts my -ve points in this order are:
1) Skype cannot be left as a background process, so cannot watch TV and have skype running at same time. Viera tools needs to be selected for any internet application and that means no TV at same time. I would very much like to see this addressed...
2) Skype connectivity to PC is great but for just audio calls to landline numbers then the fixed phone end complain of echo.
3) I had to create a new skype login for telly as it said my skype id had too many contacts (200 is too much?)...
That´s my 2 pence worth... but do hope for improvements especially on 1 & 2 as i feel these are achievable by Panasonic and it will definately help shift more boxes, as word of moth spreads...
