@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.

@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.

@MyNameIsGaron None of this is how it is always gonna be. Def worth talking about this to someone and saying it out loud. The Skype door is open (can’t help with the time difference though). 😂

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!

@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...

@4ndyman Well, taking a picture is a good start! That counts for something. And I’m happy to help at any point. Heck, we could even chat over Skype video and we could walk through the major features and such—or whatever might work for you. (Or if that’s not your thing, that’s okay too.)

@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.

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

@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.

@AlexHolmeset @cchiffers For Skype or any import module I write a connect function and then in my loops catch the session timeout error and re call the connect function. Another tip is if your script takes a while then write in disconnects and new connects to release shell session limits

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