Skype Mobile for DROID X NOT VoIP!

I am a little dismayed that Skype Mobile for my DROID X is NOT a Voice-over-IP enabled app but only works over VZWs CDMA 3G signal! I travel internationally and had not heard that Skype Mobile worked any other way than over WiFi technology.
If anyone at Verizon is reading this, I have two questions that beg an answer:
Why did Verizon go with a CDMA version of Skype Mobile rather that allowing it to use WiFi VoIP technology? and
Will Verizon offer me the option to actually use my DROID X internationally in markets that don't have CDMA (most don't)?
I am here in Germany on business unable to use my DROID for anything useful without some sort of CDMA 3-G connection...

Honestly, you bought a CDMA only phone that has no advertised "Global" features. Yet you are complaining that it won't work overseas?
The Droid X is a CDMA only device. And as such is not a Global device.

Skype Mobile on DROID X

My Skype mobile app is not running on my DROID X. I keep getting the message "Skype mobile can only be used on Verizon Wireless in the US. To learn about using Skype mobile to make free for low-cost calls from the US, visit www.verizonwireless.com/skypemobile" and after I click OK it brings me back to the Skype login screen. I am a former Alltell customer.
1. Anyone got this problem?
2. Anyone has any idea how I can solve this ?
   I have called Verizon customer support, talke to James who has no ideea about the problem but said that he will transfer me to the 'special Skype department' and forgot me on hold. ;-(
Thank you,
    Marian

Hi. I understand that you have questions regarding Skype and I will be happy to help you further. Are you not trying it in the United States? Skype mobile only works with our 3G network so if you are attempting to use it via Wifi, it will not work.
Please let me know if you have any other questions :smileywink:
Thanks!

Skype number for area code not listed

Hi, I'd like to use the Skype number service for the UK, but there's only one number is Wales and that's Cardiff (02921), which is 100 miles away. Is there a way to get a more local Skype number (01558 or 01267)?

Hi, TowyTimber, and welcome to the Community,
Skype does not announce when new exchanges are added to the list or pool of available numbers from which we can choose. Instead, we need to check back periodically to see if the exchange we desire has become available.

Elaine

Skype Premium for one account within Skype for Bus...

Hi!
Can I purchase Skype Premium for one account (not the administrator) within my Skype Business account?

Hi, ridgelineeng, and welcome to the Community,
Depending upon the additional features you wish to have the particular user to have access to, and where your account is located, you could do this one of two ways:
Add enough credit to the "child" account so the user can purchase a Premium subscription; or
If Video is the only feature you need, here is a screen shot of where to find and to add that feature:
Please note, if the Skype Manager account is in the United States and has accepted US.. Terms of Service, then the members are not permitted to purchase any products themselves. They can only request available products from the administrator, and Skype Premium is not currently available.
Best regards,
Elaine

My Skype subscription for India calling is not wor...

Hi, I recently purchased Skype India calling for 2500min/month subscription. My problems are listed below;
1. The subscription is unfortunately not working at all. I tried on couple of mobile numbers, its sometimes connecting but no voice. Only one time I was able to connect to land line number and the voice was OK, but still not so good clarity.
2. I am not able to use this subscription feature in my Android mobile (Galaxy S4), to call mobile numbers or land line number are not possible at all my Skype mobile.
Please help me find a solution for it. My normal Skype video and voice calls are working fine in my Laptop and also in my Android mobile but the subscription is not working. If there is no solution or official communication I have to cancel subscription, why should I unnecessarily pay to Skype.
Any suggestion or help is appreciated greatly.
regards
Unsatisfied Skype customer.

Hello,
The fault is almost certainly with the local Indian carrier used to terminate the call and not Skype. (All Skype calls travel via the internet and only convert to PSTN/Cellular networks at a point close to the recipient's phone). The fact that your Skype-to-Skype calls are trouble-free demonstrates the point. You can also check by placing a free call to the Skype Call Testing Service (echo123).
First of all thanks for your reply and also you mentioned something PSTN/Cellular network etc etc how the Skype is working. But look here my problem is why this is happening, the subscription name itself India calling then Skype should be able to tieup or catch up with the local Indian carrier, isn't it? How do I know that the local carrier is supporting or not? I need a solution not the reason, yeah it is good to know the reason but what I will do with the reason here; it is beyond my doing. If this is the genuince reason for the failure then Skype is making false statement and fooling around the customers saying you can call Indian Mobile and land lines by this subscription, which is clearly not happening.
Please let me know if there is anything can be done on this issue, yours time and effort is appreciately greatly.

Error message saying this device cannot be used because Apple mobile device service is not started. What does this mean and how do I start service....had these devices for over a year now??

When I tried to sync my iphone 4 and ipad in iturnes, an error message popped up saying this device cannot be used because Apple Mobile Device service is not started! What does that mean and how do I start service? I've had these devices for over a year and update and sync regularly and have never seen this message before!

I got that message yesterday. I'm new at this so don't know if this is the correct solution but it worked for me. I reset my iPod by holding the 2 buttons down until the apple appears AND I restarted my computer. After that everything worked.

Just downloaded iTunes to new dell laptop, tried syncing my iPhone get an error message: "this iPhone cannot be used because the Apple Mobile Device service is not started". What does this mean? I have had this phone for over a year..

Just downloaded iTunes to new dell laptop, tried syncing my iPhone get an error message: "this iPhone cannot be used because the Apple Mobile Device service is not started". What is the issue, had this phone over a year??

I had this problem before. I like to disable extra services to speed up my computer and I disabled the Apple Mobile Device service and had to re-enable this.
You can do that by going Control Panel>Administrative Tools>Services. Once you have gone to the services window, look for Apple Mobile Device and right-click. Select "Properties". There should be some information about the service as well as the label "Startup Type" with a drop-down menu beside it. If it says "disabled", that is your problem; Change the selection to anything except disabled (Automatic is easier and ensures that you can sync as soon as itunes opens).
If this doesn't work, I would look into your anti-virus' settings. Good Luck!
