Use Skype on Mac for messages and desktop for call...

Hi,
I'd like to know how to set up my Skype kit.
I have Skype on my iMac, I use it to send and receive messages.
I have a Skype phone that I would like to use to make and receive calls.
I use both regular skype calls and paid calls (I have a Premium account and Skype Number).
Right now I think the Mac prioritize the calls I receive. I would like the Skype phone to be the priority for receiving calls, is that possible? How both systems, ON at the same time, does interact?
Thank you!

Im not sure what user agent is, but are you referring to emulating IE in another browser such as Safari or Chrome?
The "user agent" (for browsers) is how the receiver determines the senders browser. It is easily faked to make the receiver "happy". The only problems I can think of is that now the receiver might be using some flavor of HTML that the sender's browser cannot fully handle resulting in possible display or other problems.

Sounds to me like the file is probably corrupt. If you had hard drive corruption or damage, that could easily result in recovered files not being fully intact. If you were trying to recover accidentally deleted files, it's possible they might have been partially overwritten before recovering. There are never any guarantees with file recovery.
Without more information on the circumstances that led you to try recovery, it's hard to give advice on what to try from here. You could always try another file recovery tool, like Data Rescue 3. Just be sure you're taking appropriate precautions when doing recovery. See Recovering deleted files.

I've moved your post here as you had used an incorrect board.
Sorry - you can't. Firstly a Skype OnLine # is for your contacts to call YOU (inbound calls). You can't make calls from an OnLine #. Secondly, the program isn't available in India.
TIME ZONE - US EASTERN. LOCATION - PHILADELPHIA, PA, USA.
I recommend that you always run the latest Skype version: Windows & Mac

2 iphones both receive same messages and sometimes phone calls. What causes this?

My wife and I both have iphones but we are receiving each others messages and sometimes phone calls even though different phones. What is causing this? Both phones registered under the same user. Means she is seeing my texts messages and vice versa.

If you are receiving imessages intended for other devices you can fix this by going to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and do one of the following:
Uncheck the email address shown under "You can be reached by iMessage at" on both devices if they are iPhones; or
On one of the devices go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, tap the Apple ID, sign out, then sign in with a different Apple ID. Note: you can continue to share an Apple ID for the iTunes & App store for purchasing if you wish; it does not need to be the same as the ID you use for iMessage, FaceTime, iCloud and other services.

If I'm in Europe, can I use Skype on Droid Charge(via Wi-Fi) to call US phone numbers?

If I'm in Europe, can I use Skype on Droid Charge(via Wi-Fi) to call US phone numbers?
Obviously there's no voice or data roaming for Verizon 3G/4G/CDMA phones in Europe.... (or am I wrong?)
Thanks in advance!

Hello WCMack,
That was a great explanation on the situation. Just to confirm, Europe uses GSM for their wireless network. There are third party apps that will allow you to make calls via wi-fi on a wi-fi enabled device. This is largely due if wi-fi is available and if it's free.
From my experience, I was able to make wi-fi calls on my Iphone 4 in Greece without any problems last month. Since we don't own any towers in Europe, the service is hit or miss. Feel free to update us when you get back.
Enjoy your trip!...

When i am using my iphone 4 for calls the screen doesnt go blank so i keep cutting my calls off how can i resolve this ?

Try removing your case... it might be interferring with the proximity sensor.

Cabbit use skype credit to dial landline and mobile

I have been using Skype for over 10 years, and work internationally, so it really comes in handy for me , escept when I have poor WIFI,,,, I use it on desktop and my Iphone,,,, This week my account was suspended for suspicious activity and I was forced to submit information to reactivate and change my password,,, now that I went through all that, I still cannot dial landline and mobile phones although I have 35$ credit showing on my account,,,I have not been told why the account was suspended in the frst place,,, and now I am travelling and cannot even use it ,,,, I am very dissappointed at the process and difficulty to contact anyone who can reactivate my service... Any other service that suspects suspicious activity would simply inform me by my known email,, and resent verification link to the email to initiate a reset,,, but instead,, microsoft goes through an extended automated process, while the customer is forced to sit and wait,, then doesnt even know in the end why the problem started in the first place,,, I am slowly migrating away from microsoft,, and this is just another reason why,,,,

You should be able to change payment method to Skype Credit.
Try this first:
1) Go https://secure.skype.com/account/call-phones/packages
2) Open your subscription Settings
3) Click on Change payment method
4) Add another payment method -> Skype Credit
Once you have done this it should look something like this:

Do you see a mostly black screen with four languages? If so, that's a kernel panic. Usually, it's hardware related, but can also be caused by corrupt software (the OS itself or third party items).

Having problem deleting all but one particular mail from the iPhone 4S mail inbox. I can delete mail either by the trash can or using edit, selecting the mail message and deleting. However there is this one mail message that will not go away. Any ideas?

I am having a problem deleting all but one particular mail message from my inbox. I delete by either using the trash can icon for individual mail, or using edit, selecting the mail message (s) and clicking delete. However there is this one mail message that will not go away regardles of what I do including deleting all from the trash. Any ideas?

I get that every once in a while on my 3GS, and that's what I do to get rid of it. Probably not a bad idea to power down the phone every so often, anyway, gets rid of any crud waiting to cause a bug.
Glad to hear that it worked for you.

Using Skype As LiveChat For Website

Has anyone thought about or integrated Skypechat into their website as a livechat feature to talk and resolve customer issues? I want to use it for my website TheLuckey but don't know where to start!
Any thoughts?

Hi and welcome to the Skype Community,
You can't embed Skype functionality directly into a website. You can embed Skype buttons to easily start a chat or call though. Here's how: http://www.skype.com/en/features/skype-buttons/create-skype-buttons/

Can I use Skype with a macbook air and the face time camera

I am an Imac user and learning this new macbook air. I have face time on this and am wondering if I can use skype with the facetime camera of if I need to add a remote web cam? I am not seeing the video function in skype.

I've used mine a few times within Skype. No issues.
The FT camera is suitable for any application requiring a camera, notwithstanding the "not so hot" resolution of the built-in camera on the MBA.
Check the Audio/Video tab within Skype Preferences to select the built-in camera.
