    Hey Adobe audition nerds! Im trying to record by Skype and gchat and I’m using the Scarlett mini studio. I can only record into adobe using soundflower but can’t hear anything. All I want is to go on gchat, hot record and get sound from both us to to record a podcast. Help!

  • MelissaIsArtsy melissa jacobsen (@MelissaIsArtsy) reported from Chicago, Illinois

    BIG SURPRISE in the middle of a really important Skype call, my @Xfinity service stops working properly. Some things never change.

  • Kimburly22 Kim D (@Kimburly22) reported from St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador

    @mynlcorner Maybe you can skype in @MotherofPups while the plumber is there and he can walk her through a fix for her plumbing issue

  • kartik_siva Kartik (@kartik_siva) reported from Chandapura, State of Karnataka

    @SkypeSupport Reinstall helped solve the problem. Thanks for the follow up

  • dahowlett ⒹⒺⓃ•Ⓗ ㋡ (@dahowlett) reported from Telford and Wrekin, England

    @josheac I remember MSFT pleading with me to give them time to solve Skype’s issues. Never happened. Zoom wipes the floor.

  • Motweet Motweet (@Motweet) reported from Niederkassel, Nordrhein-Westfalen

    @SkypeSupport Let‘s hope for it. As I said it is a very important form of communication for her. She was lost when it happened. And she cannot fix it herself. We will not update because she cannot cope with changes. It is important that all the buttons are at their place.

  • GabHillgrove Gabrielle Hillgrove (@GabHillgrove) reported from Temple Terrace Golfview, Florida

    @ogsaltqueen @lindsaydemeola No! I did it online for anxiety! Was $150 total for housing and flying papers. I spoke to a therapist on skype for 15 minutes, had my paper within 20 minutes and have not had a single issue for either of my dogs.

  • denmentor Paul Wilcox (@denmentor) reported from Hallow, England

    I am poised for a Skype call with a mighty fine leader. Please help me not to try and be clever, Lord. Amen. @TheMentorNet

  • Massie68 Rupa ਮਾਸੀ 🕷🧬🧪🧫🏃🏻‍♀️👟👚☕️🥂 (@Massie68) reported from Newcastle-under-Lyme District, England

    I will vote for the party that could fix Skype issues ! #conferencecallpain #GeneralElection2019

  • sTeamTraen Nick Brown (@sTeamTraen) reported from Hoofddorp, Provincie Noord-Holland

    @garicgymro @DingemanseMark @ProfSimonFisher I do this too. I don't always use the most accurate words in a Skype interview. But everything that isn't "Brown said 'XYZ'" is the journalist's problem. Most writers accept this condition, but some don't, sometimes due to their outlet's policy, which seems anti-fact checking.

  • amergina Anna Zabo (is doing Nano 📝) (@amergina) reported from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

    @katee_robert Yup. Write everything down people, if you talk to someon on the phone or skype, then send a follow up email documenting what you talked about.

  • hamzainseoul Hamza, MS (@hamzainseoul) reported from Seongbuk-gu, Seoul

    @BodenLab @AcademicChatter @Skype I mean I have no problem with it but since everything is updating and adopting to the trends, skype is still where it was years ago. Just doesn’t seem right to be using it in era of now.

  • chrissyfarr Christina Farr (@chrissyfarr) reported from San Francisco, California

    A friend who’s an innovation person at pharma says it’s worse for them because everyone thinks they are a tech expert because they use Facebook sometimes. They are also confused with IT and are asked to fix Skype or email problems

  • mbayazee Mehdi Bayazee (@mbayazee) reported from Berlin, Land Berlin

    @momo7reza @Babak_BKHT @SoOpranOoS @mahdi @Skype @commerzbank Yes you can. They had some issues with postident for couple of months and now it is fixed. People from several other countries had same issue. I already have an account in n26 for couple of years without any issues and I know people who opened one recently. Try again...

  • nicolakidsbooks Nicola Davies (@nicolakidsbooks) reported from Saddleworth, England

    The problem is bloody useless WiFi - obsession with 5 G before decent universal WiFi provision - is do Skype visits if my so called ‘optical broadband’ worked
