Skype phone number just purchased does not "ring" ...

Bought a skype phone number so I can receive calls thru skype. Just "blinks" that it's an incoming call but no ringtone. where can I go to fix this?

Hi, Michele1984, and welcome to the Community!
Just out of curiosity, is it only your Skype Number that does not have the classic Skype incoming call ring tone, or all calls? The first place I would check (I am a Windows 7 user) is where I have my audio settings for "ringing" set. I would also check in the Sounds settings under "which events play a sound."

Why do text messages from my iPad appear to some people as if they came from my email address instead of my phone number? This does not happen when I send text messages from my iPhone.

You need to link your iPhone number to Messages - and Facetime if you use it. For Messages go to Settings>Messages>Send and Receive at>You can be reached by iMessage at. If your phone number is showing there, select it as your Contact address. If it doesn't appear in there, take a look at the end of this article for help.

I have a problem that my phone only vibrates but does NOT ring any more. No matter what I try to do with settings turning off "silent" or whatever nothing helps. Do I need to reset. what are the consequences of resetting?

TS2446 how do I contact Apple support? the phone number in UK does not work and the website loops

I can't reset my security questions - it tells me they've sent the email to reset but no email arrives... the support system loops all over the place and takes you back to where you start in the end - with no help ANYWHERE. I looked up the Apple number for the UK and when it rings, it does so only once - then nothing. I need my account unlocked and the ability to purchase items from itunes store with the gift cards I received.
What a mess. Where did the online chat go? Where did ANY resemblence of customer support go??

Just installed iOS 5 and my phone does not ring and i can't hear my keys stroke sounds

just installed iOS 5 and my phone does not ring and i can't hear my keys stroke sounds is there any solution to this problem

If KiltedTim is correct I agree with him. If the phone is not hacked try temporarily disabling your antivirus and firewall that may be blocking access to gs.apple.com. See also this article from Apple: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694#error3194

My Online number does not ring

I keep getting told by people that they are ringing my number and it just rings out.
I dont get a notification on my pc or a missed call logged.
This does not happen all the time, but frankly once is more than enough.
I would like to contact Skype directly about this, but can't see how - has anyone else had this problem?
Is there something I can do/check to see if its my end?
Thx for your time.
Steve

I have had a Skype online telephone number for over two years. However, within the last two months, I have been having a similar problem as SteveCl, as when someone calls my Skype telephone number my Skype does not ring intermittently.
In addition, I use Google Voice, which allows someone to call my Google Voice telephone number, which will then automatically ring all of the telephones that I have associated with this service. For example, if someone calls my Google Voice number, my landline, cell phone, MagicJack, and Skype telephone lines (should) ring. My landline, cell phone, and MagicJack all ring consistently when someone calls my Google Voice telephone number. However, Skype rings intermittently, at least in the last two months.
Until recently, my Skype online number rang consistently when someone called it. This problem has only manifested itself within the last two months. Making the problem even more puzzling is that sometimes my Skype online number will ring through while other times it will not. For example, on March 24, 2012, it worked; however, on March 25, it does not work. Sometimes Skype will not ring through at 3 p.m. but will ring through at 3:30 p.m.; as I said, this is very intermittent. I have the most recent version of the Skype software installed. Skype is configured to allow calls to my Skype number from anyone. I have not changed this setting.
I can use Skype to call out to telephone numbers or other Skype users without a problem. In addition, I have not noticed any problems when Skype users call me; Skype on my ends rings through in this case. Skype-to-telephone and Skype-to-Skype calls are usually good quality, so my Internet connection should not be influencing this issue.
I would also like to contact Skype directly about this issue. If anyone knows how, please let me know.

My i4s phone does not ring on incoming calls. The settings appear to be correct

My i4s phone does not ring on incoming calls. The settings appear to be correct for the phone to ring.
Also, during a call, when I hit the speaker buttom, I can neither hear nor be heard by the other party
Any suggestions?

Try a factory restore, this might be a software problem so just plug into itunes and go and click the restore button. If this doesnt fix it then its a hardware problem meaning you need to head to an apple store for a replacement.

Skype does not ring with iphone 4 ios5

I recently upgraded my iphone 4 to ios5, but apparently whenever i receive a skype call, it does not ring anymore.

Sorry, I don't use Skype. You might try a couple of standard troubleshooting steps, though. First, try resetting the phone by pressing the Home and power buttons until the silve apple appears. If that doesn't solve the problem, try uninstalling and reinstalling the app. You may also want to contact Skype's support to see if they have any suggestions.

Phone does not ring when I get calls

My phone does not ring when I receive incoming calls since I upgraded software to IOS 7.

I tried that just now and it doesn't seem to have fixed it--but it is not a constant problem--just sometimes! I received a call from a friend when do not disturb was turned off but also when it was on! That was really strange!
Now I am trying to figure out why my camera flash won't work!!
Yikes crazy stuff going on with my phone since I updated the software!.

Shared line sometimes does not ring on some phones

I'm having a strange issue that appeared a couple of weeks ago. I have not made any upgrades since October so I don't think that's the issue. I'm running CUCM 8.5.1.15900-4.
The issue is that one of my phone's shared line appearance does not ring while the others are ringing. It seems like that phone is omitted from the broadcast sometimes. This doesn't happen all the time. Most of the time, all the phones with the shared line appearance will ring. I'm not sure if it is only happening on this phone. It is very hard to reproduce.
Has anyone had this issue? What are some debugs I can collect to show what physical phones CUCM is ringing when the calls are coming in. I want to confirm that it is omitting that particular phone.
Vince

Hi Jeff,
I never went as far as to open a TAC case.
Most things I tried have corrected the issue temporarily (resetting the DN in CUCM, resetting the phones, upgrading firmware). I acutally upgraded CUCM from 8.6 to 9.1.2 just under a year ago and haven't had the "ringing" issue on the shared line since then. Not entirely sure if that was the reason though.
Since that upgrade I have other issues with this same shared line, most notably held calls not showing up on all the phones at intermittent times. 9 times out of 10 resetting the DN corrects this for about 6 months. That other 1 time, a reset via CUCM doesn't actually reset the phone and I either have to physically unplug power from the phone or do a shut/no shut on the switchport (effectively power cycling the phone).
I've created a job under bulk administration that resets the phones once a week (during closed hours). My thinking was these phones are like computers and need to be rebooted every now and again....

Make the Skype phone number that I purchased appea...

The only option I have is to have my mobile phone number appear EVEN THOUGH I purchased a regular Skype phone number. How can you make this phone number appear?
Thanks so much in advance

Not all of Skype's Online Numbers can be used as Caller ID, appearing on the displays of phones you call from Skype. Online Numbers from a few countries (Chile, Denmark, Estonia, Hong Kong, Poland, Sweden, the UK and the US) can be used this way, where the others are not permitted to be used in this way. If your Online Number is not from one of the countries I listed above, then the only option would be to use the two-step verification process so that a mobile number (or a landline number that can receive SMS messages) is your Caller ID number when calling from Skype.
