Using Skype for video call on iPad2

I installed Skype for iPad and when I try to place a video call, the video button is present but not active. I have gone through the audio test call several times and that works fine. How do I activate the video function?

Barry-
Looking at preferences and settings, I can not find any way to change access to the video button. I see it is not active when you place a call to the audio test server, but that is to be expected.
I had a problem with the Macintosh iChat video program, where video was not available when my internet access was too slow to support video. I do not know if that applies to Skype or not. If you can have someone call you using their video button to make the call, your Skype video may activate and work correctly in the future.

Ipad camera app not working after update 7.1.1 and using skype on video call

Hello,
i updated my mini ipad to ios 7.1.1
then i used skype for video call...
It worked fine for a few minutes then the front camera stopped working
Stopping skype and starting the camera app, i saw that the front camera was no more working...black screen
instead rear camera was working...
Then i tried to reset the device (pressing sleep and home button) and uninstalled skype
Now front camera works more or less, but the camera app seems always almost freezed, i cant change easily the options,
i cant record a video, only camera for snapshots is working...
any suggestion?
is it possible to uninstall the camera app and try to reinstall it?
Thanks!

Updating to iOS 7.1.2 doesnt solving problem at all, even my front camera also begin not working after I did that. Everything's OK when I using rear cam, but just freeze and blurred on screen while switched to the front cam. And have to resetting to go back to rear cam. My iPhone4's camera itself, rear and front, are in good performance before. And I've tried anything such as reset, hard reset, restoring, setting up as new device, etc, without any result since then. If some people say it was about hardware issued, I thing so weird because too many same hardware problems coincident happened at the same moment. So I just only hope the Apple will listening and solving all problems wisely. Thanks b4.

How can we use K900 for video call over wifi or 3G

Do we have video calling feature like samsung provides over 3G or wifi? I dont see any option while dialing a number.
thanks

@vinashar,
I would recommend 3rd party apps such as Line or Skype for video calls ... As for future plans to implement video calls in the Lenovo dialer, I am not sure.
Thanks

I have a Y2P (i5) ... Feel free to ping me if you want me to test some applications with your Y2P if you have the same model. I don't mind keep doing recovery on it if needed .... =)

How to set up Touch to use Skype for phone calls?

I use Skype with my iMac for making phone calls and would like to do the same with my new iPod Touch. I've looked in the Touch User's Guide but have not been able to find a procedure for setting up the Touch to accomplish this. I would appreciate feedback on how to do this from those who are successfully using Skype with their Touch units. One thing I am curious about is whether I can sync my Touch with the Skype program--including phone numbers-- already present on my iMac.

Yes and no... you will have two versions of Skype on your computer, but one will only be appearing in iTunes and your iPod since they are two different app.
You can still have both Skype application open and loged into your account at the same with no problem. There is no special setup to do on your iPod more than login into your account and having credits into your account, exactly as you probably done with Skype on your computer.

Lync doesnot use microphone for audio calls in Mac

Hi,
When Im calling from my Lync the person on the other side cannot hear my voice. Im using lync on my mac. This used to work before but has suddenly stopped working. My lync version is 14.0.10 and my OSX is 10.9.5. I use skype for audio calls on the same machine
and it works well

Hi AshwanG,
You can configure your audio device settings in Lync Preferences. In the Lync Preferences window, click the Audio tab.
If you are having audio problems, and you can't resolve them within the Lync for Mac client, you can specify the input and output devices in your system sound settings:
Open
System Preferences and select Sound.
Select the appropriate settings for "Output" and "Input".
Best regards,
Eric

Sharing a PPT - using Skype for teaching

Hello.
I have an online teaching school, teaching kids in China with teachers in the UK.
I currently use Cisco Webex as its functionality for teaching is great, giving me PPT sharing ability and tools to draw and highlight on the PPT slides which is useful. BUT, the connection can be a little bad with Cisco, so I want to try Skype.
I want to know is there a way I can use Skype for the same functions as above ? I will only have up to 4 students per lesson. The most important functionality is to share the PPT.
Thanks
Craig

Greetings, Fellow Teachers,
I am a former teacher myself. I was hoping other Community contributors would join this conversation before I did!
The Skype client software does not provide a white board or writing tools per se. What I propose is Skype's screen share facility, which for a group call up to ten (10) particants would require a Premium subscription. The reason for this is that Skype considers the screen share to be a video feed, so a call with two people using their webcams + screen share = "group call" in Skype. To take this explanation from a different angle, an audio call to single student, where you as the teacher would use screen sharing, would not require a Premium subscription.
Another note to consider if you choose to use screen sharing: the facility does not work like a corporate group document sharing platform. Only one person (call participant) could share their screens at a time.
Here is a link to the libary of FAQ articles related to screen sharing so you can make an informed decision: https://support.skype.com/en/category/SCREEN_SHARING/
I still recommend testing this prior to actually using for a teaching session. by purchasing a Skype Premium "Day Pass" before purchasing a Premium subscription. (Please note, the "Day Pass" is valid for 24 hours from the time of purchase.)
Regards,
Elaine
Update: Skype no longer requires a subscription for video chat up to ten (10) participants. Therefore, the outdated portions of my post appear like this.

Can I use Skype for my business?

Hi,
I have a SKype number and been using it for my business for a year already. Today I've received an email from Skype saying that I can't use Skype for commercial purpose. I'm confused because I've seen so many people saying that they use Skype for their business. Here's the message I've just received:
"We have noticed some prohibited usage of your subscription.
We will continue to monitor your account, your calling behavior and your overall activity using Skype. If the prohibited usage still continues, your subscription will be disconnected. You will no longer be able to use or purchase any of Skype’s paid-for products.
The suspension of your access to Skype paid-for products will be permanent and you will be unable to transfer any existing products to a new Skype account, or receive a refund. However, you will be able to continue to make Skype-to-Skype calls and send instant messages.

Do I have to register for a business account or what? Or what should I do now? This number have been using as my business contact and I can't change it. Please help.

There are a couple examples of non-controller code available at the National Instruments Developer Zone (http://zone.ni.com). I would suggest searching for "+gpib +non-controller" for a list of links to various documents on the subject.
