Re: calling sequence
Stephen Troy
Hi steve
Useful tips from Mr Lee’s website.
A fast way to start a new conversation:
In regards question 2. There are several options. You can locate joe in your contacts and tab to his profile and find his mobile number in there. Having found joe in your list of chats press the applications key and arrow down to profile. If you have called his mobile at any time, if you arrow down your list of chats, his number will appear there and you simply follow the above steps for making a video or audio call.
Below are two links; the first is to doug’s website and the second to Microsoft’s “what are hot keys and how do I use them in skype” page.

Hello,
Here are 2 questions relating to the latest version of Skype 8:
Question #1: What are the quickest and specific steps to make a call to “Joe” from your contact list?
Question #2:
Let’s say you have 2 numbers for Joe in your contact list, home and mobile. You call the home number and find that Joe is not home so you want to call his mobile number. What is the quickest way to call his mobile from this point?
Thx Steve

#modnote: the rules have changed just a bit
Sorry I have to do this to all of you but the rules have changed. This will make for even cleaner archives which can be searched. I will make this sticky so everyone joining and reading the website can make note of the new rules and regulations. You can thank a list mod on a list I'm a part of for the idea. I just added my own twist shall we say. Hello and welcome to the Skype English list. Here our goal is to have fun discussing various things related to skype and the screen
. Have fun and happy skyping. Failure to abide by any of these rules, especially the last one, will get you 3 strikes then the member is band from said list. Sarah Alawami, owner of TFFP. .

Thank you very much Michelle. Now it's all set. this one is
better in terms of the accessibility. Thank you Doug for the Scripts. Your work is much appreciated. One other thing; in both Skypes I still didn't manage to make the
ariving messages play a sound even though I turned all the
notifications on in the settings window. What am I missing here?

Michelle. Thank you. I have noticed that the scripts haven't been updated in a long time, but since I have not noticed any one mentioning it here in the list, I thought they still work.

have been basically replaced since I scripted UWP. That said though, your compile error is not caused by the scripts being old. I'm betting you have a file called uia.jsh in your JAWS user folder. Removing that file is likely to let you install the scripts, and is a good idea anyway because that file, which is an outdated copy of a file that comes with JAWS, can cause compilation problems for other scripts as well.

Re: Accepting a contact request
Michele Barbi
Ok guys, thanks for your suggestions. I forgot to mention that I also checked on the notifications tab with no luck, so I probably need to ask for her Skype username and add her again. Jerry, maybe you confused between accepting contact requests and adding new contacts. Bye! Barbuz

conference calls. Don't worry, we got you covered.

conferencing app in the world that really took off. It's a pity that
even after so many years, it continues to slow Windows computers

with some of the other issues. Case in point: the microphone. There
are many users who have been facing the Skype microphone not working
issue on Windows 10 PC.

If you can't hear your voice back, then there is a chance, your Mic is not working. In this post, we will take a look at some settings that you should enable in order for it to work and some troubleshooting steps that will help resolve the issue. Let's begin.

Actually, I think you need to go to the Contacts tab, Enter, tab twice and find Add Contact. But, if someone in the group knows something I don't, I'll gladly
stand corrected.

Re: is there any way to stop that from coming up?
I'm having that issue on mac os. If you pay attention to the sign out dialogue like I didn't, Yeah I didn't, you will hear "forget the settings and log in items on this device" If you click yes, you will have to go through the tutorial again and again and again. It sucks but there you go. I think it wipes the config file upon sign out. Sarah Alawami, owner of TFFP. . For more info go to our website. This is also our libsyn page as well.

Ken, it’s sincerely the first time I hear this. I cooperate myself with a radio station in Dominican Republic, and when I make my own program I switch to the radio Skype account; I never got that window asking for making audio tests.

Re: Command sequence for hanging up call in JAWS 2019 notworking
Michele Barbi
Guys, thanks to Inamuddin for his help on it. We figured out that on
his machine the commands are both working properly, so our idea is
that the issue I am encountering is due to Italian JAWS and/or Skype
localization.

Hello guys, I recently was able to fix my problem and I am now using JAWS 2019 latest build, which introduced the command sequences for answering/hanging up the call in Skype 8. When I tested them under Skype 8.45, no problems for answering but when I tried to hang up it tells me "no ongoing call found". Did someone else test this command, and if so did you have these problems? Bye! -- Inviato da Thunderbird su Windows 10
