Skype first call/beeping/hang up problem

This is getting quite common with Skype on my Windows 8.1 laptop. What makes it worse is that I'm being charged for it.
It's becoming every other call now but when I dial a phone number on Skype, I get this beep that appears every two seconds. I'm not able to hang up the call and it's picked up but the person at the other end doesn't hear me through the microphone. The caller may hang up (this lasts for a minute if not more) and then they hang up. The call continues and then suddenly quit.
Has anyone else experienced this problem and what can be done to avoid it? I must have lost $20 in total due to this issue and it's become increasingly frustrating.
I'm running the latest version of Skype and it doesn't matter if its the App version of Skype or running from the desktop.
Best,
FAQ

There are a lot of reason why the call drops. You may want to contact Skype Live Support for them to check the reason why the call keeps disconnecting. They should see it on the back end. They can also perform troubleshooting to make sure that issue is not coming from your device or anything.

I already have this msi windpad enjoy 7. you will need to uninstall the update of adobe flash player 11 to 10.2 in order to view videos. Simply go to settings,; applications; manage applications; choose adobe flash player 11.; uninstall. it will revert bak to 10.2. don't forget to restart your tablet after the uninstall. As for skype video call, There is a problem with the skype application software so you cannot make a video call. There is a missing plug-in with the skpe video call and i'm still working on it.

Skype Windows client hangs for the first call - co...

Hi,
Skype on my Windows 8.1 (depending on its mood) hangs for the first call. It will keep ringing and ringing till it times out, during that time I am not able to hang up the call as well, the red hang up button doesnt work and we have to let the call go on till it drops on its own. Then on the second try it connects perfectly fine. This happens most of the times, there are only a few days where it connects on the first try otherwise its always the 2nd time.
Please let me know what could be the possible solution for this one?
Thanks

Skype international call problem

Hey all,
I have charged around 10$ for skype to go calls. everything was working perfectly fine for the past 2 days until today.
Problem:
Dialing the number and then it says "connecting, then dialing" however there is no sound at all starting from the connecting phase!, my friend picks up then it automatically declines/ cancels the call after 5 seconds of the call. i do a test call, works fine. skype to skype, works fine. where is the problem? why when it comes to international calls i dont hear anything?
i have been charged over 3$ for nothing and i need to know why this is happening

Am also having same proble, am unable to make an international calls to anyone in my home country. When i try to call, i can hear only the first ringing tone after that nothing and the receiver side there was no call reached.
Kindly check and let me know better solution and fix the issue soon.

When receiving an call waiting can't push the hold and answer button.Because: it will put on hold the first caller, answer to the second, but you can't hear the second until you end the first call !!! Anyone has the same problem ? Did anyone know why ?

The procedure is different, depending on whether your carrier uses CDMA or GSM. Consult the manual. gdgmacguy gives directions on how to find it in the post above.
Best of luck.

My iPhone5 is under warranty but during incoming call handset is hang. this problem 2-3 time a day. pleas help.

My iPhone5 is under warranty but during incoming call handset is hang. this problem 2-3 time a day. pleas help.

I'm experiencing what is I believe to be the same issue with my iPhone 4, and have been suffering in silence for about a week.
iPhone 4 model MC603X with Modem Firmware 04.10.01, 16Gb, cheap silicone cover, Vodafone NZ as my carrier.
My screen locks after 1 minute of inactivity as it should with my settings. Perhaps 1 call in 5, or 1 call in 10, the screen wakes up and displays called ID information etc correctly, but I cannot swipe to answer the call. The touch screen simply fails to respond.
If I push the power button briefly to silence the ringtone, this does not make a difference. The iPhone has to be locked (and screen turned off), then push a hardware button to wake up the display, and then I can swipe to unlock the device.
This is only since iOS 4.3 and unfortunately iOS 4.3.1 has not changed this behaviour.
Any advice appreciated.
Cheers, Mike

Lync 2013 : two problems 1) quicked off from meeting when presenter change 2) Freeze when leaving first call of day

Hello,
I have two problems with Microsoft Lync 2013 (see level in screenshot). The first one appeared after May Windows updates and is so annoying that I decided myself to open a post in this forum, with the second one. The first problem is the most important for
me (see why when reading) and the second one is the cherry on the cake if solved, but is minor.
1) I'm kicked off from meetings when presenters change
In an online meeting, when presenters change, I'm kick off since last May updates (very clear since it didn't happen before). I'm unable to specify if it occurs when I'm presenter or just attendee, but that could influence. I will try to report if/when I
notice a difference.
THIS IS REALLY IMPORTANT, Please help me solve this !
2) Lync freezes for approx. 30' to 1min. when leaving first call of day
I reboot my PC every day. I always notice that after leaving voice call from my first meeting of the day, Lync freezes (doesn't respond message) for 30' to 1min. This is when I leave audio, not meeting window. This never occurs again in the course of the
day. Windows goes into hourglass, then it works again.
Does anyone know about this ? Any action to help diagnose or solve this ?
Again this is less important than first problem
Thanks for help
-Pierre

The steps to remove the update:
Open Control Panel, click Programs, and then, under Programs and Features, clicking View installed updates.
Click the update that you want to remove, and then click Uninstall.
For Lync 2013 May 2014 update, it is KB2880980.

First call function problem

hello there,
i am using labview's first call function inside a for loop, inside a sequence structure. inside the for loop the function works fine activating a true/false structure, however, when i attempt to do the same thing outside the for loop i get a broken arrow. It says that the the tunnel of the case structure, to which i have wired the first call function, is missing an assignment to it. Cant understand why it is fine in one part and not in the other. Perhaps somebody has encountered this before? I have atttached the relevant code
Thank you
Dave

Stranger, I think if you will look closely at the case statement you will see that you have inadvertently added an output tunnel. Either delete the case and redo it or just click on the input tunnel and move it down enough to see and delete the unwired output tunnel.

Is there a way to put an incoming 2nd call on hold without answering it while I finish my first call

Years ago I had a feature on a phone that when I was on one call and another call beeped in, I could just hit a button and it would put the second call on hold with a message that I was just finishing another call and to please hold. Then, when I finished with the first call, I just switch or hang up.
I am constantly losing calls because I can't get off the first one quick enough to answer the second call.
Maybe there is an app for that?

Guys, guys... (sigh)
Now, let's be constructive, shall we...?
Malcolm, I see you live in a country even colder than mine, so maybe you're speaking from experience!
No, seriously, wjosten put it plainly: save from jailbreaking my phone, there doesn't seem to be a solution to my "problem". I'm not quite ready to jailbreak my phone yet, but I'm getting closer every day. I love that phone, but there are so many built-in limitations that I'm on the brink of doing it.
Now, this said, it would make for a nice improvement in future versions of the iPhone: let the user set one of the physical controls to take calls.
(As for buying those gloves you guys mention, I like my wool gloves just fine. Plus they're a gift from a loved one)
