Using Skype To Go in non registered countries

Hi,
I am based in the UK and am soon to be moving to Pakistan for work where there'll be limited wifi and was wondering the best solution.
Do I have to set up a UK STG account and use the call forwarding service to a local Pakistan number?
How much will it cost for the caller (UK) and the receiver (Pakistan) using this service and will there be any additional charges on my local Pakistan phone for the international call?
Is there any way to use the service to call the UK directly?

Take a look at the update nearest location page from your S2G page. Change location from UK to USA.
I'm not sure though when you reset back to the UK that you will get the same access number as before.

  • Is it possible to call non-registered contacts via...

    I am interested to use skype-to-go for business callls but like to know if you can also call non-registered contacts within skype-to-go? So my questions is: Could I simply call my skype-to-go number from my mobile/landline and then subsequently call any number/person (besides/outside my few registered contacts - I guess they only allow 10 different registered contacts)?
    Otherwise I have to change my registered contacts all the time which is time consuming....and I also don't have internet at hand all the time.
    cheers, Pieter

    Hello Pieter,
    1. Yes - you can call worldwide - not just your registered contacts.
    2. We have a maximum of 9 registered contacts.

  • How do I reinstall iChat, how do PC users video iChat with me, and should I just use skype?

    1. I deleted iChat awhile ago by mistake. I searched ichat in Macintosh HD, and the only result was iChat the application file, but its icon is a faded out IWeb icon. When I click on it, it just bounces on my dock, until it disappears and an error message pops up stating it quit unexpectedly. I tried dragging the result to my desktop then redragging it into my Applications folder, but the same thing still happens (faded out iWeb icon instead of iChat icon, bounces, quits, error message). I also tried installing the iChat AV (forgot which version) and iChat Update 1.0 Universal, both of which said I had to have 10.4. I have 10.5.8. Also, if this makes any difference, the current faded out iChat in my Applications folder says its version 4.0.9. I do not have my reinstall CD, and do not want to call support and have them send me one. Considering I bought my macbook in late 2008, and my warranty is up, I'm pretty sure they wouldn't help me anyways. I also do not know of anyone who has a mac so the sharing option can be crossed offed. Is there a downloadable version of iChat for 10.5. users?
    2. If I somehow managed to reinstall a working iChat, how would PC users connect to me and vide chat?
    3. Should I just use skype? Would i have to download anything? Is skype video chat free? What are the differences between iChat and skype, and which one is better?
    Thank you for your time!

    Hi,
    Reinstall Instructions
    Be SURE to Download (Manually) and Install the COMBO version of the last Update to the OS you did as iChat will need to be Updated (Software Update will think it is already done and you need to Fool it)
    Re 2).
    In theory it is just a question oif you using a valid AIM name in iChat
    This could be one registered with AIM or one from @mac.com or MobileMe if paid for or a current trial.
    In Practice it can need a bit of tweaking at both ends
    They Need to allow the AIM App through the Windows firewall as an Exception (AS with any Non Microsoft app)
    They may also need to turn off the "Real Time" option that does not work to iChat and effects A/V chats as well.  (It is Sending as you type). It will be in one of the Menus of their Budy List.
    Post back for more if you get stuck.
    Re 3)
    Skype does offer free Video Chat and some people resort to it when iChat to AIM does not work.
    It is free (At present - and you only pay for the Connection to and from real phones)
    Skype was bought by Microsoft within the last week and things may change at some point in the future.
    iChat has better Video
    Audio depends on the capabilities of your Mac and their PC but is probably about equal.
    Connection methods differ and iChat's Video and Audio Chats are technically more secure (you can in fact log out of the Buddy List as they adre Peer-to-Peer where as Skype uses a little bit of everyone's bandwidth (Between 40 and 100 other End Users)
    Other options are here
    Video options are from 8 onwards
    Mebeam is now called Koowy. (Video Chatting in a Web Browser using Flash)
    NOTES;
    Google Do a Plug-in for Intels to allow you to use their Web Mail Page Chat Option
    It can Conflict with Flash if you use more than one option.

  • 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.
    We remind you that Skype’s products are for personal, individual and non-commercial use only. Our Fair Usage Policy can be found within our term of uses. Our subscriptions cannot be shared or used for commercial gain, such as telemarketing or call centre operations"
    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.

  • I created an Apple ID using my ISP Email when I registered at the Store/Apple Support Communities/iTunes/Face Time and it does not work in iChat. Why Not ?

    Question:-
    I created an Apple ID using my ISP Email when I registered at the Store/Apple Support Communities/iTunes/Face Time or other portal and it does not work in iChat. Why Not ?
    Answer:-
    For a Name to work in iChat it has to be an Valid AIM screen Name.
    Only Apple IDs from the @mac.com ending names registered here  and the Mobileme (@Me.com ending) names are Valid with the AIM service as well as being Apple IDs
    (I am still working on info about registering with iCloud at the moment but if this does give you an @Me.com email it may well be a valid AIM name as well)
    NOTES:-
    The @mac.com page works by linking an external (Non Apple) email with a @mac.com name.
    This External Email cannot be one linked to an Existing Apple ID (you have to use a second email or register at AIM )
    The options at AIM are to use your existing email or create new name and link the existing only for Password recovery
    MobileMe (@me.com ending names) were valid Emails addresses, Apple IDs AND a Valid AIM Screen Name
    @mac.com names look like emails but are only Apple IDs and iChat/AIM Valid Screen Names.
    The AIM registration page seems to be pushing you to register [email protected] This is relatively new and I have not followed through the pages to find out if it a valid AIM email (Previously you could register a name without an @whatever.com suffix)

    Question:-
    So I have my current [email protected] email in iChat as I thought as I had linked that to an Apple ID it was a Valid iChat Name.  It keeps coming up with a UserName or Password Invalid message.  What do I do next ?
    Answer:-
    Open iChat
    Go to the Menu under the iChat name in the Menu Bar and then Preferences and then Accounts in the new window.
    Commonly written as iChat > Preferences > Accounts as directions/actions to take.
    If it displays with a Yellow running name in the list you have a choice.
    Either register it at AIM (I would use a different password to the ISP Login) and then change the password only in iChat  (It may take you to confirm any Confirmation email from AIM first) in iChat > Preferences > Accounts
    Or you register a new Name at AIM (Or at @mac.com) and enter that (details below)
    If you have a Blue Globe name  (@mac.com) that will not Login the chances are that it the password that is the issue.
    Apple lets you create longer passwords than can be used with the AIM Servers.
    Change the Password at iForgot to no more than 16 characters.
    Then change the password in iChat as details above.
    Adding a new Account/Screen Name in iChat (that is valid with the AIM servers)
    Open iChat if not launched.
    Go to iChat Menu > Preferences > Accounts
    Click the Add ( + )  Button at the bottom of the list.
    Choose in the top item drop down either @Mac.com or AIM depending on what you registered
    Add the name (with @mac.com the software will add the @mac.com bit)
    Add in the password.  (If you don't add it now iChat will ask you each time you open it)
    Click Done.
    The Buddy List should open (New Window)
    The Accounts part of the Preferences should now have the new name and you should be looking at the details.
    You can add something in the Description line which will then title the Buddy List (Useful when you have two or more names) and make it show up as that in the iChat Menu > Accounts and the Window Menu of iChat when logged in.
    You can then highlight any other Account/Screen Name you don't want to use and use the Minus ( - ) Button to delete it.

  • Using Skype moderatorss to Harass me after I block...

    Okay this has never happened to me before so I have absolutely no idea what to do and am absolutely dumbfounded.
    I ran a website where this girl found me and started contacting me repeatedly. I finally decided she's friendly and just want someone to talk to and gave her my Skype for her to contact. Since adding me to Skype, every one of our conversations were initiated by her and we usually just chat friendly like any typical conversation.
    Then last time we chatted, and spoke about a week or so ago, she suddenly became very sexual and wrote and said a lot of sexual things with me. Afterward, I noticed her username amberier_17 ends with 17, and recalled that she's just going to university but still in high school. Though most of my friend sin high school before graduating were 18 or 19, I suddenly realized that she may not be over 18 yet and I don't think we ever put that to question.
    So yesterday (April 1st), she says hi to me again and initiated conversation with me again. I told her my thoughts and said that we can't continue with any sexual conversation unless she's over 18, and asked her if she is. She refuses to answer me, and goes on passing rude remarks to me saying how her friend (im not sure who, and shes never mentioned friend before) says that she should stop contacting me etc as if I'm a bad guy I guess? At the end she told me I could go to hell if this or that and I was beginning to get very unnerved why she wouldn't even tell me whether she's over 18 or not.
    So I blocked her then, with no intention of letting her contact me again. But today I was approached by a moderator who said they received a Report, from someone anonymouse, that I "solicited" personal information from them, and that violates the agreement and policy of Skype use. This moderator added me 30 minutes after I blocked her finding her refusing to tell me if she was over 18, doing the right thing, without asking her for exactly how old she is. If she said she do not want to tell me, then ok. if she stop contacting me, then ok. She did not do either, prompting me to conclude that she may very well be under 18, and to block her as I was beginning to feel both fooled, having responded to someone I shouldn't be talking to and don't even know, and being made to feel horrible as she kept repeating how her 'friend' think she should stop talking to me (as if we talk often at all).
    I use Skype to mostly talk to either my ex (who is very nice and sweet to me and helps me out with a lot of school work even now), or other friends from school I Skype to do homework or assignment with. So I know for sure it can't be anyone else I know.
    But after having blocked this individual, I am both reached by her (through a moderator), and her revenge in getting me banned from using Skype again. If this is not outright harssment or abuse of the system then I don't know what is. However I have no idea how to report this in detail at all so I am reporting it here seeing that moderators do address people's privacy and security issues here.
    Right now I sadly feel almost like a victim, of indirect harssment manipulated by someone that wants to get back at me for blocking them. I feel like my privacy and safety is threatened by simply trying to do the right thing, and she got close to having me lose my way to stay in touch with people close to me using Skype that I always have used because of this eratic and vengeful stranger.
    I hope to not to be harassed (personally or through indirect channels like with moderators) by this person again (especially with false accusations so obvious in our chat logs) or people this person incorporates to deliver inconveniences into my life and threaten the communication I have with people I know simply for blocking her and asking whether she's over 18 (not detailed age). But I don't know if it is even possible. I do hope the right person comes accross this and perhaps look into this person. If she's under 18, i think it's a bit inappropriate to get into and initate sexual conversations accross Skype and with strangers after seeking them out online. That's just what I think. Bottom line is I just want to be free from further harassments from this person.
    Thanks for taking your time in reading this venting!

    afaik, there is no such thing as "skype moderators" based on how you described them in your post.  Most likely, it just another possibly fake user (scammer/spammer) just like that girl (I also think they are related or possibly the same user).  I suggest that you report both that girl at that so-called moderator to [email protected], then blocked and remove them from your contact list.
    I also think Skype doesn't communicate with their users via Instant Messages or calls, they usually send emails to users' registered email address.
    IF YOU FOUND OUR POST USEFUL THEN PLEASE GIVE "KUDOS". IF IT HELPED TO FIX YOUR ISSUE PLEASE MARK IT AS A "SOLUTION" TO HELP OTHERS. THANKS!

  • No option to invite non-registered users to meetings

    When creating a new meeting and selecting either option that
    allows non-registered users to participate in the meeting, why is
    there no option to supply a list of email addresses to send the
    meeting notification to? You can select whether or not you would
    like registered participants to recieve the email, so why can't you
    manually specify some additional addresses? This seems like a
    trivial fix that would save the extra step of having to wait for
    the meeting notification to arrive and then forward that to any
    additional non-registered participants.

    Hi DHM:
    This functionality is available in the Events Module within
    Breeze if
    you have purchased that module but I understand that this
    doesn't
    necessarily suit your purpose specifically for setting up a
    quick
    meeting invite and sending it out to users.
    Another option you can explore, if you're using Microsoft
    Outlook, is
    to get the Breeze Outlook Add-in. That way, it is easy to
    create a
    Breeze Meeting from within Outlook and send it out to your
    meeting
    participants and guests directly from your company's
    Microsoft Outlook
    Exchange Address Book (or by typing them in).
    The Microsoft Outlook Add-in is available for download here:

  • I got a swedish cellphone in USA can I use skype t...

    I have my swedish cellphone with me to the US and I need to use the skype to go, shall I type in that I´m calling from sweden or where? Does the skype use the phoneline calling or will there be a cost for roaming?

    Do not use your swedish phone to call a Skype To Go number in the US. You will otherwise incur int'l roaming charges by your Swedish operator (you are basically calling a US landline number from a Swedish phone). The same goes for your Swedish Skype To Go numbers. If you call them from abroad you will incur int'l roaming charges.
    If you want to use Skype To Go in the US then you need to call from registered US mobile or landline (e.g. you could get a US pre-paid SIM card).

  • Sound/audio quality Macbook Pro using Skype

    My wife uses skype a lot to make foreign calls. For that reason we bought a Macbook Pro (MBP) so that she could use it wireless in the house.
    We got complaints from the people we call that the sound quality of the Macbook Pro is very bad. First of all the sound is very distant and on top of that the sound seems to go up and down in volume. We use the internal microphone of the MBP.
    When trying with an external (USB) microphone the quality doesn't improve while using the same microphone on my G5 the quality is perfect.
    I also tried in Audio/Midi settings to set the quality of the input device (the internal microphone) to 44.1khz instead of 48.1khz since Skype might not work correctly with a higher sample rate. No result.
    Does anybody have the same experience, or better, a solution to the problem?

    you're using SKYPE what do you expect for free?
    Go into your sound options in your system preferences and check out your microphone settings, and maybe increase them.
    You may also want to try a bluetooth headset, or a direct plug (non USB) 2.5mm mic.
    Due to the update to Intel, communication between Apples and SOME USB devices have been less reliable (Products made specifically for PCs for instance like a "Pocket PC")... this may be the problem to your USB issue and would be solved with better driver support or an OSx update.
    And again, I'll mention... you're using Skype... what do you expect for free?!?!

  • Tax on Imports from Non-EU Countries

    Hi Experts,
    In SAP Library, following explaination has been given for tax on import.
    Tax on Imports from Non-EU Countries
    Definition
    In Spain, you are obligated to pay a tax on imports from non-EU countries.
    Use
    This tax, which usually does not appear on the vendor invoice, must either be paid directly to the Spanish tax authorities or through a customs agent.
    The R/3 System allows you to post the tax to a separate tax account, which is independent of the tax base. The account is especially set up to allow manual postings, whereas the normal input tax account does not.
    Example
    You receive an invoice from a foreign vendor. You post the amount of the invoice, but not the tax. A few weeks later, you receive an invoice for the tax from a customs agent. You must then create a manual posting to the account especially created for customs agent charges.
    But, I could not found any config document for the same.
    Can you please help me by explaining configuration to be done and process to be followed to achieve this practically.
    Best Regards
    SD

    thanks AP,
    That is fine for Vendor side, I want to know for tax treatment. explaination clearly says that "The R/3 System allows you to post the tax to a separate tax account, which is independent of the tax base. The account is especially set up to allow manual postings, whereas the normal input tax account does not.
    now, what settings I need to maintain for this seperate tax account?
    And this should also reflect in SAP standard tax report "S_ALR_87009895 - Advance Return for Tax on Sales/Purchases "

  • Nokia "non-navigable" countries

    Nokia has a list of "non-navigable" countries, meaning that Ovi Maps will not calculate routes on those countries.
    However, NAVTEQ, which is subsidiary of Nokia since 2007, has navigable maps for several countries listed as "non-navigable" by Nokia.
    Does anybody know a reason for that? I mean, what's the point of acquiring a big company like NAVTEQ and at the same time not making all NAVTEQ's maps available to Nokia customers. Sincerely, I just don't get it.
    For instance, Uruguay and Peru are countries listed as "non-navigable" by Nokia, but NAVTEQ has navigable maps for these countries. Those are maps that anyone can use (including non-Nokia customers...), since they are available at NAVTEQ website.
    As a matter of fact, NAVTEQ website is also capable of calculating routes from one "non-navigable" country to a "navigable" one, as you can see on the second attached image.
    I have attached images of routes I've just calculated on NAVTEQ web site. The first one is a route from Montevideo (Uruguay) to Punta del Este (Uruguay) . The second one is a route from Montevideo (Uruguay) to Rio de Janeiro (Brazil). The third one is a route between two hotels I know in Lima, Peru.
    I would really appreciate a comment from Nokia here...
