Skype for Professor virtual office hours

We have just been informed that our illuminate contract will no longer be funded next year starting in Jan 2013. I was wondering if there are any educational grants that I can apply for that would allow us to test the feasibility of using Skype as a replacement for Illuminate Office hours, in our distance education courses.
If not a grant, any suggestions on how we could handle 12-15 students in a skype conference as a virtual office hour, or as part of a real time content delivery agent

Skype for Business / MS Office

I have the new Skype for Business client unstalled in my home office PC as part of the MS Office 2013 suite. Can this client be used to log into my personal Skype account? If so, how do you enter the proper credentials?

Most likely not unless your organization had the ability to bridge those services. Skype personal and Skype for Business to the best of my understanding are not interchangeable in terms of login. One (SFB) is provided by your work, the other isn't.

Where can I get fix for TID3456911 (Virtual Office password issue)

We currently experience the problem described in Document ID 3456911
(Novell Virtual Office - "your password has expired" popup) located on the
novell knowledgebase
(http://www.novell.com/support/search...200%2032504829).
As described in the resolution section, a "fix is available by request".
Does anyone knows how to request such fix to the development team?
Thanks
Py

Hello,
The problem that I had with VO was that when you would log in as the
admin, it would say that you needed to change the password. I didn't want
to change the admin password. I just restarted Apache and Tomcat and the
problem went away.
When I researched the problem I found that password policies in iManager
PasswordsPolicies over ride any password policies set in Console1.
If you upgraded to NetWare 6.5 from an earlier version and used Universal
Password (Usually to sync eDir and Mac Passwords) , you may need to to
delete the policies and recreate them.
I found that there wasn't an expire Policy for my admin user and once I
restarted the server it no longer said that the password was expired and
let the admin login.
Hope this helps,
Warren

Design pattern for office hours

I would like some advice on how to model office hours. For example, my office hours are
Mon - Tue 3pm - 5pm, Wed,THu,Fri 9am - 11am. closed on saturday and sunday.
I would like a complete api that can help me persist the data , also given a date let me
know if I am available, or if i pick a date, what is the next date and time i am available.
I am sure this is a very common problem and many experts must have solved this. Please let
me know how to approach this. Is this a common enough API for it to be part of some standard
api...

about next available time, all i meant was suppose my office schedule is
mon - wed 8am to 5pm, and then thu 3pm to 5pm. (365 days a year)
Let us assume current time is Wed 6pm, I will possibly need an api, to tell me
if the person is working at the office at Wed 6pm. If this function call returns false,
I would like the nextAvailableTime to
return thursday 3pm. This will allow me to schedule some other appointment.
Hope this clears my issue.

How do I get around or reset security questions that I have forgotten ie What was your first car ,without ringing during office hours?

How do I get past forgotton security questions for buying from store. ie What was your first car.

If you have a valid rescue email address, there’ll be a link to send a reset email to it. Use it, wait a few hours, and check the spam filter.
If not, wait for Apple’s office hours and then phone them.
If you’re desperate to make a purchase and have a credit card or unredeemed iTunes Store gift card, make a new Apple ID. iTunes Store credit and previous purchases can’t be transferred between them.

Error message that no virtual memory pops up & crashes when application is run for more than 1 hour

My application uses VISA serial operations. It has arrays to store data collected from various devices. I reinitialise the arrays each time the index reaches 50.
Data acquisitions is carried out in separate threads by invoking the runVI method.
When i run the application on Win XP continuaously for more than 1 hour it gives an error message that no more virtual memory to complete the task and the system hangs up.
I open the serial port only once and close it when the application is terminated. But serial read/write operations are done continuaously
Is the error caused due to memory leakage? How can i solve the problem. It's very urgent and i shall be thankful if i ge
t the help.

Yes, it sounds like a memory leakage (either that or you're trying to run an advanced app on an old computer w/ little memory and a small hard drive).
Things to try:
1. Ensure it's only labview, and not say labview and another application interacting. This isn't a likely case, but you never know what people have on their boxes and I've seen some weird things with virus scanners. Hit Ctrl-Shift-Esc to get the task manager. Go to processes and watch the memory consumption (click Memory twice to sort in descending order) of the various processes. If labview keeps rising, you've got a leak.
2. If only a reasonable amount of memory is being used, double check your page file settings (read virtual memory).
From the Control Panel
Select System
Select
Advanced Tab
Under Performance, select the Settings button
Select Advanced Tab
Under Virtual Memory, let windows dynamically adjust the page file (and any XP speed tweakers out there can now chime in about how wrong this is. This essentially allows windows to keep upping the virtual memory as needed by various processes.
3. Find the leak. In LV Tools->Advanced->Profile VIs. Turn on memory stats. Start the profiler. Start your vi. If the vi crashes labview totally, you'll have to keep hitting snapshot to find the leaky vi (the one that's memory keeps growing).
4. Upload the vi to the forum so we can give it a looksee.

Skype for business for Office 365

Hi Team,
I need to upgrade my current Lync 2013 to Skype for business and as per information i got an update released by Microsoft KB2889923 ... this is used to upgrade Lync 2013 to skype for business.......but in case of Office 365 this update dosent seems to work......
so i wanted to know if there is any other update or package or any other way to upgrade office 365 Lync.

Hi,
Please check out this thread
http://community.office365.com/en-us/f/172/t/345370.aspx
“Q2. Where can I download Skype for Business since it does not appear to be included with the Office365 download file? ====================== A2. You need to manually update your Office application,
then you will be able to upgrade to Skype for Business. You can to do this on your Outlook client: Open your Outlook client ->
FILE ->
Office Account ->
Apply updates”
And this issue is more related to Office 365 application, we would like to give a hand, but we are not the specialists in this filed. Thanks

Filters for Virtual Office

Hello we are trying to get Virtual Office to work and are having many
different issues, but one that has cropped up now is filtering. We have a
url called http://vo.domainname.com/vo and we can get the VO office to work
fine when we are inside of the company, however from the outside we receive
the following error message, URL could not be retrieved, time out 110, once
we drop filters however it instantly works.(So this leads Me to believe
filtering is to blame) Another error I have is vo.domainname.com:443, so I
will assume I need two filters for 443 one inbound and one outbound, but if
someone could confrim this, and give a description of the filters I would
be very grateful.
DS

Hello Cat;
I wanted to make sure I had the second filter correct as well before I
went out to my customers site,
On the first one you have Packet type TCP 1024-65535 dest port 443
on the second one you have the same thing,
Packet type TCP source port 1024-65535 dest port 443
shouldn't that be turned around for outbound communication to occur? I
will also let you know about the ack bit being checked or not

Office 365 Lync Online / Skype For Business Journaling

Hello,
From what I have found in my research, there is no way to journal Lync Online / Skype For Business IMs with Office 365. Please correct me if I'm wrong. Is anyone doing this by way of workaround or 3rd part product?
Thanks in advance.
This topic first appeared in the Spiceworks Community

Thanks for the clear dialogue and responses.
I want upgrade from Skype to Skype for Business, BUT want to retain my Skype ID (which is printed on my business cards) and existing contact connections.
My situation is similar to Jim Carpenter's, in that I've used Skype for years. I have it linked to my old Microsoft account that I'd set up for the old SkyDrive (now OneDrive) product. When I bought Office 365 Business Premium (includes Skype for Business), it necessitated creating a second Microsoft ID using the suffix [e-mail removed for privacy and security] to set up my new business account. That is a different login than my existing Skype login tied to the original MS account, and the new one not only accesses the MS programs, it accesses Exchange, through which I run Outlook calendar and contacts.
So, are these the steps I should take?
Unlink my existing Skype account
then uninstall Skype
then install Skype for Business
I would guess that there would need to be a re-linking step of some sort, too, but I'm unclear on this. Guidance?
Please confirm that is the best path. Will this process allow me to migrate the Skype ID and contacts to the business app?
Thanks much.

Its been like a week that i bought new iphone 5s but whenever i play games or talk in skype for an hour my iphone get extremly hot... idk why?

its been like a week that i bought new iphone 5s but whenever i play games or talk in skype for an hour my iphone get extremly hot... idk why?

Why? Because it is working the processors hard. Same as when you work or exercise, your body gets hot, so does the iPhone when it is working. Skype and many games will tax the processors more so than browsing the internet, sending texts or email. So, it gets hot. If it doesn't cool off fairly quickly after you quit Skype or playing your game, or it gets hot when doing less taxing activities, then you might want to have it checked out.

Skype for Windows Phone idea: Make it work

[Topic title updated by moderator to be more descriptive. Original topic title was: "Re: Submit: Great Skype for Windows Phone ideas"]
Oh, here's a brilliant idea - make it work. Simple enough?
Fix resuming the app. Make it fast enough so I can actually pick up a call.
Decrease battery drain. Currently when using skype my battery usage sometimes reaches 65% per hour. It's not even ridiculous anymore.
I'm not asking much, I don't need calling skype-skype a pleasant experience. Just make it work without requiring 1Gb/s bandwidth and quad-core processor with 8GB RAM.
Last but not least - make SkypeOut not a theoretical feature to lure people into paying subscription but something that actually works at least half the time.
I'm really not asking anything fancy like deleting some old messages or other things people mention. Just the basics of a communication app.
The funny thing is that we all know you don't give a s* about what we are putting here. Nobody's gonna read it anyway.
It's sad. I used to like skype, before the mobile revolution. Now... Just keep it going the way it's going and in two, three years you'll be a history like Blackberry or AOL

As for those "smaller improvements" I think everyone will agree with me that they are way too small, and they take much too long. I mean, seriously, 65% per hour battery drain! I am yet to find an app, ANY app that would be even remotely close to your "achievements". With improvements that small and slow I guess in 5 years skype will be using only 30% battery every hour. If I'm not expecting to be next to a power outlet within an hour or two I'm not even trying to use skype anymore. Exactly the same applies to resuming the app. I understand that there are some improvements but honestly improving by 50 ms is not an improvement that any user would appreciate. Again, in this matter skype is probably the worst or one of the worst among all communication apps in WP store. And it's not like it's a new app. Those "improvements" (exactly the same) have been announced from the very beginning and yet they are virtually unnoticable for an average user. Like I said before, sometimes it's impossible to answer a call because it takes too long to resume skype. And any improvement that doesn't make it possible is not really an improvement, from a user's point of view.
I really hope this changes and next fixes will be dramatic.
Now, SkypeOut problem. I cannot agree that it has anything to do with a carrier I'm trying to call. Here's why:
1. I'm calling the same people from desktop app, from metro app on my tablets and from my phone. Desktop - no problems whatsoever, Metro - pretty much good as well, Windows Phone - unusable most times.
2. When I try to call people from phone - it doesn't work at all, I tether a laptop/tablet to the phone, thus virtually using the same connection (ATT) - magically it starts working perfectly fine.
3. I'm calling landlines and all cellular carriers in Poland. Problems are with ALL of them using Windows Phone, and there are no problems using any other platform while calling exactly the same phone numbers. So, unless you have a problem with Poland in general, it wouldn't make any sense to blame the carriers.
4. For some reason, sometimes it actually works on the phone. But only sometimes.
Also, I noticed this behavior on Windows Phone:
1. SkypeOut works bad no matter what internet connection I'm using, whether it's 2Mb/s or 100Mb/s it's just a disaster (most of the times), and whether it's wifi or cellular.
2. Video calls quality is very poor also on both - wifi and cellular.
3. Voice calls are actually not that bad. Assuming that I can start the app before they hang up
I'm using Lumia 920 so I hope this phone is not too weak for your app. If it is - you're killing yourself limiting only to owners of the very newest phones packed with the best hardware available.

Lync 2013 - Skype for business User Interface

Hello,
We are using Lync 2013 with Lync 2013 server with CU from August 2014 (so not ready for Skype for Business).
I have installed latest Desktop Updates for Windows and Office, and now everytime we log on we get the Skype for Business UI with the question to restart the client with the Lync UI.
I have followed the recommendation in this article:
https://technet.microsoft.com/library/dn954919.aspx
I have set this:
In the [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\Lync] key, create a new
Binary value.
The Value name must be EnableSkypeUI, and the
Value data must be set to 00 00 00 00.
But this settings seems to be completely ignored... doesn't do anything.
We can't set the policy on the server, as the server is not yet up-to-date and doesn't know about a Skype UI policy.
Can somebody please tell me how I can start the updated Lync / Skype for Business client with the Lync UI as a default (without disturbing the user with the restart-the-client pop-up)?
Thanks a lot!

Hi,
As mentioned the Lync Server is not up-to-date, based on my knowledge this is why the issue occurs.
Please refer to this article below:
https://technet.microsoft.com/library/dn954919.aspx
You can configure the client experience only if you are running Lync Server 2013 with the December 2014 Cumulative Update (5.0.8308.857) or later installed. The latest one is:
KB 3036869 February 2015 Cumulative Update 5.0.8308.871 for Lync Server 2013 Core Management Server.
You can specify the client experience the users in your organization will see by using the
Set-CSClientPolicy cmdlet with the EnableSkypeUI parameter:
Set-CsClientPolicy -Identity Global -EnableSkypeUI $true

App-V 5.0: Adding Visio 2013 and Project 2013 to a previously deployed virtual Office 2013

Good morning.
I can successfully deploy Office 2013 via PowerShell and App-V v5.0 without difficulty. I've read the document at
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2915745/en-us and followed all instructions successfully.
My question is this: If Office 2013 without Visio 2013 or Project 2013 is virtually deployed, how can those components be added later?
For instance, we may have 100 users that acquire a virtualized Office 2013 without Project or Visio. We then may have 25 users that require a virtualized Office and Visio without Project and, perhaps, another 15 that require Office and Project without
Visio.
Currently, when I attempt a second virtual deployment of one of these components, it removes Office 2013 making it inaccessible.
How can Project and/or Visio be deployed to an already existing virtually deployed Office 2013?
Thanks very much.
John

Deleting messages in skype for windows 8

Took me an hour to figure out how to make a post... Skype needs to get a bit more user friendly.
Anyways, I am using the latest skype for windows 8, but I cannot seem to remove messages off my pc. I've tried right clicking while inside the conversation (brings up remove contact, remove notificiations, etc), I've tried clicking on the three dots at the bottom, and I've tried right clicking on the recent conversation window itself. Nothing seems to be working. And apparently nobody seems to be having this problem except for me because I haven't seen anything for windows eight. Anyways, help would be much appreciated.
