Using Skype over wifi from Egypt to uk???

Hi, i'm new to Skype and i was wondering can you use skype on a mobile phone using wifi in Egypt to call a home computer back in the UK???? Thanks

Yes, you can do that. You would call the Skype account name that is logged on that computer, and that would be a free call with Skype. You would also avoid roaming charges from using your phone on an Egyptian mobile network, if your phone doesn't have an Egyptian SIM in it.

Fraudulent charges on my Skype

Hello, Yesterday I got an e-mail about Skype and auto-recharge and that it had been enabled for my account. I figured this was just some kind of error so I went into Skype and turned it back off. However, later that day in the evening, I received another e-mail stating auto-recharge was back on and I then got another e-mail saying my purchase had been delivered. I made no such purchase. Going through my call history, someone was making calls to mobile phones in Indonesia and to a few lines in Egypt. These calls reduced the balance I had previously, put me into the 2 dollar recharge limit and charged my debit card on file for 25 dollars worth of credit. I then changed my Skype password and the calls seemed to stop. I need these charges reversed, I need my balance to be restored to what I had it before yesterday. My account name is jack.mackey.

What to do with skype

Well all of a sudden after using the file cleaning program BAM skype malfunctioned
the view of the person i was talking to on video skype was narrow instead of wide.
Tried everything deleted the plist file then erased the app and reinstalled it.
Still the view remained narrow. If BAM had permanently messed some setting up on my mac air then i guess skype would remain messed up but if it did not and i reinstalled the app then why is the view still narrow.
IF anyone has a good theory or answer to this please do not hesitate to respond.
if not I understand and thanks anyways.

I started getting the same outgoing traffic this week. Balwarebytes flags an outgoing request to 77.78.2`4.199 on port 61438 on behalf of skype.exe. Lase week my account was hacked and a group of conference callers in Egypt and Indonesia ran up $57 in calls in under 4 hours. Do you have any Skype credits on your account or a subscription of any sort?

Someone hacked my account and bought a subscription for Egypt. When I discovered that I cancelled the subscription and disabled auto-recharge system. How can I have it refunded - $39.99?

Account hijacked for calls to Ethiopia and Egypt

Hi, My skype account was suddenly auto-recharged today (20th April, 2012) around 1:00AM (GMT+5.5). When I checked, several calls were made to EGYPT and ETHIOPIA. I have taken the necessary measures to prevent further charges. I also notified skype support via chat.
I am convinced that there are serious holes in security at skype. Beware All!!!

Easy way: Go to support.skype.com/en-gb/support_request
Long way: Click on "Support" in the main menu above and selecting "Support Homepage" (at the bottom of the menu) > Then click on "Get more help" at the bottom of the page > Enter a query. In the next page, there will be another "Get more help" link on the right, which will ultimately lead to the support request page.
Once at the support request page, select Security & Privacy > Identity Theft / Acccount takeover. The page will scroll down to display an answer, which contains a link "contact us by live chat". Click on the link and mention the issue to the live chat agent. What I did was just mention what happened and the steps I had taken (change the password, disable autorecharge, de-link from paypal account). Note: I did not directly ask for a refund.
I also notified paypal regarding the fraudulent recharge and there, I raised a claim and requested a refund. I am not sure which of these steps was effective in getting the refund, but I would suggest doing everything possible without wasting time. I got my autorecharge refunded within minutes of the live chat, so I am not sure the paypal step was necessary.
Hope this helps!

Why does Skype display different numbers when call...

I use Skype to call my fiance's mobile phone in Egypt. I am not paying for a Skype number. Every time I call, he says it's not my number and it's a strange number. Why is it different every time?

sudo scutil --set HostName whatever-you-want
If that doesn't work, the hostname is being set to the result of a reverse lookup of your IP address on a local DNS server, most likely your gateway.

Unable to connect to Skype Nokia 6120 Classic, sig...

Hi I have a Nokia 6120 Classic on Vodafone Egypt. Last month I downloaded skype mobile onto the phone and was able to skype reasonably well (within limitations as I am at a remote location) I left Egypt for some three weeks and on my return the skype application now does not work. I have discussed this with Vodafone and they have resent the settings to the mobile and I have also removed and reloaded Skype. But still no joy it just hangs when signing in until it times out? Skype version is Sybian 1.5.0.12, it's saved on the phone memory. In the advanced settings the incoming conn. port 8877 The Alternative in. ports 8877.
I can still get the internet on the mobile (eg Google and searches ok) Voda fone tell me if I can access the internet I should be able to access Skype? As far as I can see this is the right Skype download and I got it from the Nokia website. In need of some help please as this little application was really quite good, the other options are very expensive.

i m able to connect my skype throug computer and through web page skype.com on my 6120c but through skype messnger on my mobile 6120c i m unable to connect skype for last two days

Cannot Call 0800 or 0845 etc. numbers using Skype ...

Hi,
Whenever I try to call a UK 0800 or 0845 Number using the Skype Connectme Box, the line goes dead after an initial couple of seconds of the usual "skype warbling".
I have tried dialling the number as is - I.e. 0800 123456 and also using the UK codes with and without the leading zero - I.e. 00 44 0800 1234546 and 00 44 800 123456.
The Skype Connectme is NOT connected to a normal landline - It is Skype only.
When dialling using the Skype system on my Windows Laptop, the calls go through perfectly.
As I need to call these types of numbers regularly, can someone please tell me what the solution is ASAP.
Thanks,
Ros

I don't believe what I said was incorrect in whole. In the past 10 years countries (including Egypt) and several ISPs have handled Skype differently throughout the years. Toll-free numbers do filter their calls, even I filter my calls with my call forwarding service for my virtual home number separate from my Skype number.
If what you are saying is correct then that would fall under the category of steps taken to prevent abuse and fraud. If a decision like that was made, it may have also been made at the behest of others and was probably not made lightly. A deny of that nature may supersede the ability to allow an individual account to be waived. Even if it could be, the abuse rate may be so high and sporatic even by multiple appearingly good, long standing accounts that it may make the ability to allow virtually unmanageable.
It sounds rather unfortunate in this case that the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few. The only time I've personally come across a seemingly global restriction on a set of numbers by Skype, is when it was actually followed by the error message "You can't call this number on Skype right now". I would hope you would have received a similar error of that nature alluding to a restriction in place but then again that might not be an option for a regionally or IP deny range. I don't know if a proxy or VPN tunnel would change things or be a viable solution for you.
Toll-free numbers generally have some form of toll number counterpart or alternate means of communication. The only major downfall of that is having to pay for that toll call.

A Skype Number is a different subscription from purchasing credit; you would have to check on the offerings available if credit is "bundled" with a Skype Number purchase or not. I do not believe it is. Credit is credit; there is no "discounted" rate. Check the Skype subscription website pages to see if purchasing a subscription could discount the cost of a Skype Number.

Your second two questions are related to Caller ID. More details about how this works can be found in this library of FAQ articles: https://support.skype.com/en/category/CALLER_IDENTIFICATION/
Caller ID is tricky; sometimes it works and sometimes the data does not get transmitted as the call is routed from Skype to one or more carriers before the call reaches its destination. For best success, be sure your Skype Number is set in your on-line account details as your Caller ID. What ultimately appears for the ID on the call recipient's side ultimately depends upon the carrier. For more details about this, check posts by Community contributor WD9EWK.
Since a Skype Number is a fixed line number, there is no indication that the number is a "Skype Number" or a "fixed line" number.

Elaine

Yoga tablet 2 pro microphone does not work with Skype or Google+ hangout

I have a new yoga tablet 2 pro, with most recent build and most recent version of skype for android.
When using skype or hangout, the other party cannot hear me (unless I speak directly into built-in microphone hole from a few inches away). The mike works fine with OK google, etc. Skype and hangout also work well with earphone and external mike combo.
I think there is a problem with apps accessing microphone gain....... is there a fix?
thanks!

In order to assist my investigation into these reports, if you are still experiencing this issue could you please provide:
the model number
If the model is wifi/3G/LTE
the OTA your device is running

Skype hangs when I login with my ID

Hi
I have two skype accounts. One for office and one personal. Till yesterday I was able to use both. Today am able to login to skype using my office ID but when I login using my personal skype ID ([Removed for privacy]) skype stops responding. I am able to login using this ID on my phone. I uninstalled and installed skype again, changed my password, but nothing seems to work. Please look into this issue.
I can also login to skype.com using this ID and post this topic.
Thanks

Try to reset all Skype settings.
Quit Skype or use Windows Task Manager to kill any Skype.exe process. Go to Windows Start and in the Search/Run box type %appdata% and then press Enter or click the OK button. The Windows File Explorer will pop up. There locate a folder named “Skype”. Rename this folder to something different, e.g. Skype_old.
If you are on the latest Skype 6.5/6.6/6.7/6.9/6.10/6.11/6.13/6.14 version, then do also this:
Go to Windows Start and in the Search/Run box type %temp%\skype and then press Enter or click the OK button. Delete the DbTemp folder.
Restart Skype.
N.B. If needed, you will still be able to re-establish your call and chat history. All data is still saved in the Skype_old folder.

When i login to my mac, it opens iTunes, Skype and AIM. I've tried deleting these from the login items, but they are not on the list. Can anyone help?

If you do not lock that folder immediately after deleting all the contents, it will simply populate again (Resume - a "feature" in Lion). You do that by doing a Get Info (highlight folder and press Command + I keys), unlock the lock at the bottom, enter your admin password, then check the box to lock the folder. lock the lock and you're done.
Yes, that is correct. The alternative is to quit all applications prior to logging out. Lion will then have a chance to remove the saved states.

And, for the OP:
It has also been a regular feature of Mac OS to automatically open any window that was open at shutdown. To avoit that behavior, simply close any Finder windows and properly quit applications by closing their window and using Command + Q (or File >Quit).
This was true only for the Finder. Prior to Lion, no other apps would launch unless they were included in the Login Items for the account. And the OS would not restore windows for other apps.
A very small number of apps (TextWrangler is an example) implemented this capability prior to Lion. They could restore previously opened windows. But that is an application feature, and can be controlled by the application's preferences. Lion implements it at the system level, and users have virtually no control on a per application basis.
