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.

Is anyone using Skype on an Orange UK iphone.
I'm just trying to establish whether i would be able to use Skype over wifi before purchasing one.
Read some reports that it’s barred and the sales reps in the Orange store would only confirm that Skype is not supported.I have an iPhone 4 on Orange UK, and Skype works perfectly over wifi, which is hardly surprising as anything over wifi is not carrier-dependent. However, using Skype over 3G is another story. Orange's 3G bandwidth is so low at times, sometimes as slow as dial-up, that you can't hear what each other are saying on a Skype call. Chatting over 3G usually works fine though, given the much lower bandwidth requirement.

Printer prints over wifi from phone won't print from computer wireless or wired
Hello,
My Grandad got his new printer today, I went to help him set it up we followed all the instructions the printer works because it prints over wifi from my Iphone but when we try to use the printer on his computer it doesn't print, I have installed all the software and uninstalled any software that could conflict with it but it is not working, it doesn't print over wifi or wired with the computer but does when I use my phone.
Printer : Hp Officejet 4360
Computer : Emachines running windows vista 32-bit
Any help would be appreciatedsean1104
Welcome to the HP Community Forum.
Sometimes you do have to restart everything again, including the Router - even after you have installed the Full Feature Software.
If that does not work (restarting the Router), you might try this:
Remove the Printer software from Control Panel > set icon view > Programs and Features > Right-Click on the program > Uninstall
Shut down the computer
Shut down / Switch off the printer
Switch off the Router
Wait around for 2 minutes...
Switch on the router and wiat for it to boot completely - say, 1 minute.
Boot the computer and log in
Switch on the printer
Install the Full Feature Software for the printer following the instructions:
Install Full Feature Software – Printer

Can iphone 4 make video calls using skype over 3g?
Hello,can i make video calls on iphone 4 using skype over 3g network?
Yes, Skype can make video calls over 3G. You do NOT need to jailbreak your phone. I believe the previous poster thought you were asking about FaceTime which does not work over 3G.

Using Skype via WiFi in Europe
The Skype app on my Verizon (Droidx) phone will not allow me to access wifi networks. It forces me to use the Verizon network. I understand that. My question, however, is what happens when I take the phone to Europe and try to use Skype via wifi there?
Will the Skype app STILL refuse to let me use a wifi connection? Or does it "Know" I am no longer in a Verizon area and allow me to use wifi? (I experimented by putting my phone in 'airplane' mode, then turning on the wifi. Other apps connect fine, but Skype app won't allow a wifi connection. So the mere absence of a Verizon signal does not permit the use of Wife). Can anybody answer this question?
Thanks!
DavidYes - just as you in the US. Just don't forget timezones!

Cannot print or scan with USB printer over wifi from airport express / time capsule wifi
Hi everybody,
I have recently set up time capsule connected to the router from the telephone company but created a new wifi network for the time machine to better work. Now I have bought an airport express to be able to use my USB printer over the WIFI network. I have to laptops, the printing works fine over the mac book air but not over the macbook pro. On top of that I cannot scan with either of the devices.
I have scanned most of the information out there but this issue seems not to be addressed properly anywhere. Advices given do always repeat itself but no solution worked for me.
Now I have plugged the usb from the printer directly back into mac book pro and the problem seems to persist here too. The message I receive everywhere is this one:
The software for the printer was installed incorrectly.
Would you like it to be repaired?
When I hit the Repair button a notice says 'repairing permissions' but nothing really happens. In the end nothing has been printed.
Resetting the printing systems has not really changed anything either. The problems persist.
This is the screen I get when the printer is directly plugged in through USB:
Result: printer recognised and installed, I cannot print (The software for the printer was installed incorrectly), but I can scan (probably because of the hint ('multifunction')
When I try to install the printer through the network connection (wifi network over time capsule and airport express) I get this image:
Result: printer recognised over bonjour but without multifunction (in other words without scanning), I cannot scan nor print (The software for the printer was installed incorrectly)
As I already mentioned any solution I found online would not work. Now the qustions are:
1) why can't I print? The drivers seem to be there but somehow broken, and I don't know how to repair it
2) why can't I scan over wifi? It sould possible that any function that can be performed over cable should also be able to performable over air, right?
I would very much appreciate any kind of help.
Thank you in advance,
CrisWhat's up doc?
HP has not provided "network" drivers to allow advanced features when the the All-in-One is connected to the USB port on the Time Capsule.
Therefore, only the printing function is supported when the All-in-One is connected to the Time Capsule's USB port.
If you need advanced features like fax, copy, scan, maintenance etc., you will need to connect over the WiFI network, or connect the All-in-One directly to your computer. -
How does it work using apps over wifi?
So ive seen several apps well preaty much all requering that you ahve a data plan. So say i have data active at my provider, will i be able to use live messenger and facebook over wifi or will they only use gprs/edge?
My problem is that my data is freaking expensive as soon as you use data they charge you 2 bucks but after that you can use as much as you want that day. For EDGE well we never did built a fully edge system in sweden cause 3G came almost the same and are superior to edge so all data have to go over GPRS which is slow.Hi,
As I recall there were some issues with the first
generation shuffle and recorded books. As I recall,
if you stopped a book before the end, when you
started it again, it did not continue where you had
stopped, but rather at the beginning of the book
again. Maybe this was an isolated issue.
The question is, how are recorded books working with
the new shuffles?
Thank you for your help
That depends on whether the audiobook is an audible.com download or not. Audibooks ripped from CDs work fine on either generation Shuffle. -
Attempting to use SSL over RMI from a web application to a RMI server

I am attempting to use SSL over RMI to a server. The client is the web

the server end. The code works outside of WebLogic 7/8 but has the following
issues when running the web application inside weblogic:

ThanksI don't see anything that indicates SSL was directly a factor in the
failure.
From the exception stack it looks like a more basic connectivity issue,
maybe the URL for the
RMI server is incorrect for some reason or the server was down.
It looks like you are doing something like this:
SSL client -> WLS server with servletA, servletA RMI client
(com.hyperion.css) -> RMI server
The connection failure appears to be the connection from servletA RMI client
to the RMI server.
Is that a correct picture?

Have a new officejet 8600 pro and am able to print via wifi from laptop running windows 7 and hp touchpad running webos, so all is working fine. However, I am unable to print via wifi from a laptop running Vista Home Basic, 32 bit OS. I can see the printer from the laptop, but when trying to connect to it, receive the error message "Unsuccessful Network Installation, the printer was unable to be installed over the network".
Have downloaded drivers from HP, turned off laptop firewall to ensure no blocking and still no luck. Any suggestions would be welcome. Thanks.Download and run this: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c03286146&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en

IPhone 5 with iOS 6.0.2 uses Cellular over WiFi.
I updated my iPhone 5 to iOS 6.0.2. But there is still a small amount of data coming through Cellualr over WiFi while the iPhone connects to WiFi and I am not actively using the phone. I am having this problem since Day one, and apparently iOS 6.0.2 does not help. Does anybody have this problem?
I appreciate your reply. Below is the record of data usage after I updated the phone to iOS 6.0.2. I am not using the phone during this time. And even if the phone is plugged-in (as suggested in this community), I have the same issue.

How to use skype when away from your country of origin
Hi All,I am going overseas but don't want to take my mobile. How do I use Skype in the country I am staying to confirm reservations and also to call back home. Am not very technologically minded so hope you can help me.thanksKrys
Hey Krys great question!
You can use your laptop or tablet if you are taking them with you.
You can also use a friend's device (mobile or desktop), go to an internet café, or use an airport or even hotel computer.
Basically, any device will do!
The device needs to be connected to the Internet - most hotels, cafes and airports provide free wi-fi nowadays, I always use those.
Download and install Skype on the device or launch it if it is already installed.
Login with your existing Skype login and password. (Don't forget to log out when you're done with your calls!)
You will see all your Skype contacts and past conversations, and you can call them for free, just as you would do it from home.
If you want to call a mobile or a landline back home or in the country you are travelling to, you can also do that with Skype Credit or a Skype subscription. Calls to landlines and mobiles are not free as we need to connect you to a network operator. However, they are usually much cheaper than what you would pay using your mobile! Check out our rate pages to find the best plan for your needs: https://www.skype.com/en/rates/?nu=subs-calling
Enjoy! -
Can I Use Skype Free Minutes From a Mobile Phone
Can you use Skype free minutes (provided with Office365) to call FROM a mobile phone? When I check the free minutes online, I see that they are active on my Skype account, but my Android mobile app does not show any Skype credit?
If your iPad Mini is a cellular model, you can use Skype (and buy a block of minutes). If only wireless, you can also use Skype on a wireless connection. It saved the day when I forgot my iPhone and needed to make a call. Skype sells phone numbers, but I've never gone that route.

Anyone else having issues when streaming from veetle using safari over wifi?
I like many others have been having issues with my wifi on my iPhone 5 (sometimes when connected to wifi it just freezes up and I need to do a reboot or reset network settings to get it back up and running). In any case, that wasn't bothering me too much but I've noticed now that the veetle web site that I use sometimes to stream shows from on my iPhone stops showing video after a few seconds when using wifi. If i switch to my LTE connection or 3G it works fine but it's only when running with wifi that it has a problem. It will begin to stream a show properly then after a few seconds the video will cut out though the sound keeps playing. My iPad doesn't exhibit the same problems and can stream from veetle perfectly over my wifi. Anyone else out there having similar issues? This will be annoying if i'm travelling out the country and depending solely on wifi for my data and not being able to stream sports and tv shows from Veetle. Just wanted to see how commonplace this problem was. Thanks
All spring and summer Netflix/fios has been a problem. I have used a tool that goes beyond simple speed tests and gets to dividing up thE problem. It appears that the problems reside with fios, however true to form Verizon repair denies any problem (go figure) .

Using Skype To Go from a mobile phone
With all my "Rogers AT&T" mobile phones, if you call from Canada to a USA 'Skype To Go Number', Rogers will bill you for a regular International Call, regardless of the 'local Skype To Go Number'. It was my wife calling her granddaughter in USA. She didn't find out until the bill was over $1000.00. SKYPE TO GO NO GOOD FOR MOBILE PHONES, USING ROGERS AT&T ANYWAY. I'D CHECK WITH YOUR MOBILE PROVIDER BEFORE TRYING "LONG DISTANCE"SKYPE TO GO!
Subscription applies to calls made through Skype To Go. For Skype To Go you need either Skype Credit or a subscription
