Thanks. Turned out I had the mike set to inline jack instead of the mike that was plugged into that jack. Apparently makes a difference.

If you're in the table in skype that begins with skype home, and goes to contacts, just press vo+j when you hear contacts, and you'll be taken to the contact list table. You can then press "S" to get you to the section of your list that has contacts beginning with that letter. Vo+down to get to skype test call, vo+shift+M to invoke the contextual menu, and press vo+space on call. You can then press cmd+shift+H to disconnect when finished.

Yes, I did find that option, and I had it set to let Skype set the mike volume. No go. And also, can you tell me where the option is to make a test call so I don';t have to keep annoying my friends with failed attempts? <grin> list BILL HOLTON Email: <mailto:[email protected]> [email protected] P: 386-624-6309 C: 386-624-3255 Home Office: 1520 Loughton ST DeLand, FL 32720 From: <mailto:[email protected]> [email protected] [mailto:macvisionaries@ <http://googlegroups.com/> googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Ray Foret Jr Sent: Wednesday, January 30, 2013 4:31 PM To: <mailto:[email protected]> [email protected] Subject: Re: A few more beginner skype user questions First, you need to go in to the prefs window by pressing command+coma. Now, you need to go to the audio devices tab. You can get to this from the tool bar. Now, you need to stop interacting with the tool bar and VO right. The options are pretty self explanitory from there. When a call comes in, i just vo+right on the screen till I hear "answer". Best way to do it for me. HTH.

First, I used the let Skype set my microphone volume, but the recipient of my call heard nothing. What have I don't wrong here, is there a better way to do this? Is there a quick way to call up the contacts list? Is there a quick way to answer a call when you're working in another app? Thanks.
