Using skype on the iphone
can you, whilst logged on to wi-fi, access skype.com and use your skype account from your i-phone?
there is an app called "fring" that allows you to use your skpe account...allows you to use voice calls(VoIP) over WiFi...thje video conferencing part doesnt work though

While using Skype on my iphone 4s i found the phone was heated up. It was very warm. I had used for 1 hour or so. Is this normal for other users aswell ?
And also sometimes when i get the call no matter how much i try to slide the cursor, it doesn't move. I miss those calls. It looks like it is freezed. Has this
happened to others too?*Update*
I thought I had found the offending 'app' namely "Songpop."
I regularly use "Songpop" on my phone late at night via my wifi connection.
All enteries on my phonebill are at midnight (even though I have a data allowance it was excluded from allowance). I switched 3G off on Friday, played "Songpop" at midnight and at the exact time I got a "Server Error" message.
I posted a message on the "Songpop" support forum.At first they said this was a problem relating to my ISP.
I have spoken to my ISP and asked if there are connection drops at the time I have been billed (ie to establish if my wifi dropped and 3G kicked in without my knowledge) and have been advised that there aren't any connection drops at that time.
"Songpop" have now responded that "This is an issue to take up with Apple Support" see: http://support.songpop.fm/songpop/topics/playing_songpop_on_phone_via_wifi_but_i ncurring_download_data_charges_for_3g_useage?utm_content=topic_link&utm_medium=e mail&utm_source=reply_notification
Hopefully someone at Apple can respond .... -
Skype on the iPhone - current status.
What is the current status on Skype on the iPhone ?
It has been months since AT&T announced they were allowing Skype to be used on the iPhone. There have been threads here discussing this and elsewhere including Skype forums. Skype claims it already has software ready to allow iPhone connections over AT&T's wireless network and the delay has to do with Apple itself. Every piece of information I have found including posts here in this forum also indicate the same. Since AT&T itself is okay with Skype on the iPhone why then is Apple blocking this feature ? This would be a great service to customers specially those who often need to make long distance or international calls.
Why is Apple taking so long to respond to customers needs and blocking Skype full functionality on the iPhone ?
Thanks,
JosephThis is a user to user forum. No one here knows what is going on between Apple and any developer. You could email Skype and ask them. They may have a reason to hold back their app for now.

Alright I have a question about the skype for iphone service. I thought I understood but aparently not the case. So first to use it i must pay $25 for a lifetime purchase or a $4.95 a month fee. Alright so it's free to call someone's skype account from it and it only costs a small fee to call a real phone? I had thought prevously that it also uses your air time minutes. However, the skype website says it is for the ipod touch as well. How can it use airtime charges then? or is it only free when hooked up to wifi?
what i can gather though is it calls you back. My girlfriend is currently in london so i am trying to find the best way to call her. All I have is my cell phone and a pc, i'm in a dorm room. Otherwise i would just use a calling card and pay $0.03 per minute. Heard about skype for the iphone, I use skype to talk with her over the pc. just would be nice to talk anywhere.

my iPod has not been working for a month now and i was hoping that you could help me.The part where you charge and sync the iPod is not connecting.There is defiantly not the lead as we use it for the iPhone and that works please could you help!
yours sincerly
jackfromsurreyWhat I am saying is ..........
The iPhone HAS to be active making calls on the UK carrier network for the carrier to identify as "theirs" and therefore eligible for the Carrier to unlock
The way to achieve this is to use a PAYG sim making and receiving calls to establish a customer relationship with the Carrier and then follow the Carrier's process to unlock
With a PAYG it usually means adding a specified (by the carrier ) amount usually £15 /£20 depending on the carrier
This is how O2 function and according to Gemma this is how Vodafone work -
I have purchased a eos 6d. When I use it with the iPhone app the connection dies after about five m
I have a 6d and when I use it with the iPhone app the camera turns off after about five minutes and the connection is lost. So when I am photographing wild life I keep having to break cover to reactivate the connection. Is this correct or is there a way to keep the connection alive.
You just need to go into the menu and set the camera's sleep mode to "off" or "never". It sounds as if it's currently set to 5 minutes.
Letting the camera sit active continuously, i.e. preventing it from going into sleep mode, will drain the battery(ies) a lot faster. I don't have a 6D, nor do I leave them on full time (in fact I set sleep mode to a very short duration, since tapping any button on the camera quickly re-awakens it).... so I really don't know how quickly a battery will drain. But you might be prepared with spares. If battery life is too short for you purposes, you could add a battery grip which will double the battery capacity.

I stream video/audio from my iPhone to AppleTV (like YouTube) and it works fine. I want to use headphones on the iPhone so I can stream the video to AppleTV and listen on the headphones, but Airplay will not allow me to select both AppleTV and headphones, I can only select one. How can I watch AppleTV and listen on the headphones?
Thank you.have the same problem. Im using iPad 3 and Apple TV. id like to use the ipad as wireless earphones while i watch the video on the tv. is that even possible?

I have the new iphone and thought I could download Netflix but only found "Netflix Instant's Best Movies" in the apps. I pay for Netflix monthly. Is it not possible to download it here and use it on the iPhone? Insight appreciated.

The iPhone is working, as designed and advertised. In this case, the user failed to educate themselves properly, either by proper research or asking the right questions, before purchasing the device.
I understand that the OP failed to do research. But then, I wasn't replying to the OP. I was replying to Chris. I have Verizon. I can talk and use data at the same time with my Droid Maxx. Therefore, the problem is not just with the network. It would be technically possible for an iPhone to do that on Verizon/Sprint if Apple had chosen to use a different chip, such as the kind other phone manufacturers have elected to use.
Of course, this is probably all irrelevant to the OP's issue. It was merely a point of clarification, especially for those people who are used to being able to use both voice and data at the same time on Verizon. When they switch to an iPhone, they are often surprized at the limitation.
Best of luck. -

May i know what kind of leather used in making the iphone 5s casing?is there any possibility using pig skin?Actually, Apple does make an iPhone 5s case in leather, but they do not indicate what species the leather is from.
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MF041LL/A/iphone-5s-case-brown?fnode=47
There are number of other companies that make leather iPhone cases though - I've used numerous Sena leather sleeves and cases over the years although I've never inquired what species of leather they use. -
When using Zoho CRM- by default it uses Skype as the "dialer". They said the browser can be configured to use Google Voice as the default dialer. Please help by telling me how to make Google Voice the default dialer instead of Skype. Thanks
Try the following changes to the JS file
Lines 103 and 104 change the values
this.showDelay = 100; // was 250
this.hideDelay = 200; // was 600
Comment out line 286
Spry.Widget.MenuBar.prototype.bubbledTextEvent = function()
// return Spry.is.safari && (event.target == event.relatedTarget.parentNode || (event.eventPhase == 3 && event.target.parentNode == event.relatedTarget));
Comment out line 366 and add new lines 366 and 367
var self = this;
this.addEventListener(listitem, 'click', function(e){self.Click(listitem, e);}, false);
this.addEventListener(listitem, 'click', function(e){self.mouseOver(listitem, e);}, false);
// this.addEventListener(listitem, 'mouseover', function(e){self.mouseOver(listitem, e);}, false);
this.addEventListener(listitem, 'mouseout', function(e){if (self.enableKeyboardNavigation) self.clearSelection(); self.mouseOut(listitem, e);}, false);
I have not tested the above changes ontouch screens; they do seem to work Ok on desktops.
NOTE: Line numbers could be different because of the difference in our versions. -

Dear all:
According to an article on Macworld AT&T as announced that it would start allowing users to use Skype for long distance calls over its wireless network without forcing them to use Wi-Fi. The link to the article is the following:
http://www.macworld.com/article/143165/2009/10/att_voip.html
This article was published on October 6 (almost a month ago) and I thought that by now Skype would already be working. Sadly I just tried and for some reason I get a message on my iPhone stating that I need to be online in order for Skype to work.
What gives ? Have a failed to do something I need to do in order to make Skype work on my phone ? I have checked and my iPhone currently has the latest version of Skype available for download ? Any ideas ?
Thank you in advance,
JRCDoes anyone know who to talk to at Apple to get any information on this? Customer support is very friendly, but has no idea what's up with this.
I was hoping to find out what the time frame is for Apple's update to the AppStore policy on VoIP over 3G. I purchased the iPhone specifically for its ability to to use Skype in order for my wife to talk to her family in the UK while we live in the US. On other AT&T phones (Windows based), Skype can use the 3G network for communication. If Apple's written policy doesn't change soon, I will have to return my iPhone (which I do indeed like) for a Windows phone.

How common an App is Skype on the IPhone?
I am researching remote viewing via Skype on an IPhone. I had a comment it was not a common app. I thought Skype was compatible with all smart phones? If you needed to do remote viewing, would one choice be Skype for Apple and Non-apple users? Can an Apple Iphone user talk to a person with a different manufacturer smart phone?
What problems might be encountered say if one person was in Massachusetts and another in Las Cruces New Mexico.FrancesWy wrote:

Skype is available for iOS, Windows, and Android. Compatibility will depend on the OS version being run, I suspect. Yes, it will work between devices of different manufacture and running different OS vendors. Its use on iPhones is quite common.

None in particular.
