FIX:
1. You need Time Machine
2. Go to folder /Library/CoreMediaIO/Plug-Ins/DAL/
3. Copy AppleCamera.plugin to good place (usb memory stick is the best place).
4. Go to Time machine in date that skype work fine.
5. Change AppleCamera.plugin with file from Time Machine
6. Restart system, Now skype need to work with camera.
If that doesnt pass,

Why can I not make video calls using Skype?

I'm really baffled. I have a month old MacBook Air. I use Skype daily for work and personal business. Never had a problem until this evening. I went to make a video call and Skype was not linked with the camera - there was no option to make a video call and when I went into Preferences, it said I had no camera. I then used FaceTime - person I was calling also had FaceTime, so it wasn't an issue - but I've now spent an hour trying to solved the problem, including logging in and out of Skype, closing the app and reinstalling, all to no avail. The camera functions fine with FT and other apps - why will it not sync up with Skype after it's worked fine? Anyone have a clue? Thanks in advance.

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.

How to Make a Video Call Using iChat to Someone Using MS Live Call

What do I need to do to make/receive video calls using iChat to someone who uses Microsoft Live Call (using Windows Live Messenger to register me as a contact)?
When I initially set up iChat, I selected AIM (AOL Instant Messenging) as my default messenger program. But I can't remember where I set that up. Where in iChat can I make that change from AIM to Windows Live Messenger?

If its anything like MSN you cant video chat with ichat.
The only way on MSN is.

Making video calls on skype

hi,I'm unable to make video calls on skype, i have a trust 17405 webcam, the trust drivers for this cam cause my pc to crash, without the drivers i'm still able to get a video image on trusts diagnostic tool on their webpage.i'm using a pentium 3, running win xp sp 3, the skype version is 7.5.0.102can someone please give me some help resolving this issue?

Even if your camera works outside Skype it will not work in Skype. This is because a processor requiring the SSE2 instruction set (Pentium 4 compatible or above) is required to use video in any Skype releases since Feb 2014. Since releases of Skype that old have been retried you will not be able to use video at all using that computer.

Suggestion: Direct Video Call using 3G network.

I found there is not Direct Video Call option in any Android version by default Like it is in iPhone and Symbian phones, we can do a Video Call directly using the 3G network by dialing the number like we dial it for a normal call. Samsung and some HTC phones have implemented this in their andriod phones. I want to suggest please implement this Video calling feature in Sony Xperia phones. Note: I am not talking about Video call using any Video Calling App like skype or hangout or tango etc. I am talking about direct 3G network Video Call by dialing the number. So better people avoid replying to the post with useless replies

You might be right at your place, many people may not need it because there are many free video calling apps in google play. But if you believe me, there are still some people here in our region, they do not know how to use google play or a google ID, and if they do not know what is google play how they will download an app for a video call.many people are backword here, some of them even do not know how to use these video call APPS. The purpose of my this suggestion is for those people who are not able to download and who are not able to use these video callings apps. if this features enables, they can just make a video call like a normal call only network data charges apply and that is it. I have also requested the same feature to android.

Enable Video Call for Skype

I have just tried to do a video call to a Skype account, but the video doesn't show. I can't see my contact and they can't see me.
All i get is a square with an avatar in it. How do I enable video calls for Skype so that we can both see each other?
I do have the new firmware update too.

here you go.
be sure you are set up first:
open your contact that you want to call. be sure that it has a skype address already saved. it will look like this:
it will start to initiate the call. once picked up, then it will look like this. tap on the menu on top:
a drop down menu will show. inititiate the video ability:
then it will show horizontally split with the options on the right and thier picture or camera image on the left. tap on camera...after a few seconds, you will kick in. this will work n900-any pc, and n900-n900.....over wifi, and over the tmobile network.
hope that helped!

Not on an Apple device, no.
Things are not the way popular movies and TV shows would have one believe.
Apple goes to extremes to ensure your personal information remains protected, to a far greater extent than any other consumer product manufacturer on Earth.
Your FaceTime videos, Messages, and everything else you do with your iPhone are as secure as your iCloud credentials.
Anyone with your iCloud or Apple ID credentials has complete and unfettered access to everything associated with them, equal to that of your own, so keep them secure. Never divulge them to anyone you would not trust equally with your wallet, your girlfriend / boyfriend / spouse / child / Lamborghini etc.

Harassment phone calls using Skype function (i.e. ...

Note: I have sent an e-mail to the Support Team. Pending reply.
Based on call history, my home and mobile numbers have been bombarded by phone calls (using Skype) from Skype user, who resides in another country.
For example
Time: 02:20 till 22:33
30-Aug-2012, home number received 15 calls and mobile number received 27.
Time: 00:00 till 22:20
31-Aug-2012, home number received 44 calls and mobile number received 90.
Time: 11:46 till 23:54
01-Sep-2012, home number received 04 calls and mobile number received 33.
Note: The harassment calls started since Oct-2010. I had discovered these harassment calls were made by this Skype user. I am able to provide call history made by this Skype user from Mar-2012 till Sep-2012.
This is a serious violation of the Skype's Terms of Service. Please investigate and take appropriate actions against this issue. Your quick response is very much appreciated. Thank you.

I have a similar problem. I recently reinstated Skype on my iPad. I am able to sign in, to check my profile page and to check on my credit (I have about $30 US on it). But, I am unable to bring up a dial pad, nor a phone logo. I should add, I do have another copy of Skype on my iPad, under a different spelling of my name, that works perfectly well. I want to be able to contact to Skype using the re-instated account (which I had created earlier in error) so as to use up the existing credit, as I've learned that I can't combine the two accounts. What can I do? Can anything be done?

Urgent : Mystery Calls using Skype

Hi,
As i would like to use Skype to make mystery calls to test competence of my call centre support, I have a few questions:
Example:
I call using Skype from Singapore to China Call Centre, what is the phone number that will appear at the receiver's phone?
Is this number the same for every call, no matter to which country?
Or no number will appear?
This is very important as I am using it for mystery calls.
Thank you in anticipation.
Rgds,
KTY

You need to set the callerID on the Skype accounting page, so that the specific Skype online number is able to show on the caller's phone.
