@TheeMarkZ Mark you may have to go into camera settings and give Skype permission from Windows settings. I had an online meeting a few months ago on an old PC and had this issue.

@Skype I'm concerned for the wellbeing of one of my Skype contacts, but don't have enough information for his local police to help. I've sent a direct message with more information. I've been in touch with Skype support twice now, but no dice.

@BobDigi69 We've been using a messenger service through Skype for business which IMO is better. But management loves these dumb emails. I get It, they're busy, gotta reach a bunch of staff quickly, but the people replying don't know when to use reply all and when not to.

Just saw that I can get a custom vid on Cameo from Lee Majors for a whopping $299. For that much I expect a Skype session where he strips down from his track suit while I scream at him in my Andre the Giant Bigfoot costume.

@ecommerceshares I don’t think network effects work *as powerfully* in p2p as they do in broadcast/social. The original issue you’ve highlighted is the right one — execution risk from mgmt. Skype didn’t evolve for years (like Twitter) and an objectively superior product came along.

The problem with this lockdown is there are people with mental illness that are totally cut off from the rest of the world because we don't have access to things like #Skype or #Zoom. @AlexRuff17 @JustinTrudeau

Why oh why do Sly TV insist on using Skype to interview people via Skype, it is by far the worst of ALL chat systems available. No other service uses such dated systems, suffering from voices out of sync, frozen screens and people. Invest in modern technology!!

Bye bye, @Xfinity. I don't need full service. I'll live without a remote pass. Bye bye, @Microsoft. All the calls that Skype missed or misforwarded & now I need your Edge browser to access my settings. Should have dumped you as soon as you ended free service. Good riddance.

I have a Teams meeting at 10.45 and I'm using a five year old Mac... I sat down at 10.10... After 35 minutes of failed attempts and spinning beachballs I've had to log in as guest because I apparently don't exist. Whatever was wrong with Skype? Skype worked perfectly fine!

@joseeramirez Hello Jose, we currently don't have a way to send access codes via email. If a traditional phone call isn't possible you can also try to call us using the internet. Simply choose a VoIP service provider such as Skype, Google Hang outs, Viber, etc. then dial 1-800-956-4442. -Lacie

@SkypeSupport hi, if I start a free conf call Is there a way to terminate the call so no one else can join into it going forward? eg/. teacher sends help desk link out in the morning but then wants to end it (or stop people joining) at the end of sch day? Thanks.

@KryckIund When Xbox live was out it did alot of early streaming stuff before Netflix, and Skype (Discord now a days) got big, but now that they are. Online service really can't offer anything I don't have. Looking at Nintendo's online is the biggest reason paying for online is a sad joke.
