Hi Jennifer:
Go to options on the file menu and navigate to the keyboard menu. On this menu, enable global hotkeys. Arrow down to the last option on the hotkey list which is mute and unmute microphone. You must be sure you have the latest update in order to have this option.
Hope this helps.
If you require more help, you can Skype me by calling jnoseworthy on Skype.
Cheers.

Subject: Skype hot keys
Hi all:
I hope it's considered within bounds to ask a Skype question on the PC-Audio list.
I am a new user of Skype, but have met with prompt and easy success so far.
I have two questions regarding hot keys, though. the menus speak well for me, and there are key commands in them, but I wonder whether there is:
1. A hot key to mute the mike. I have read on the site that such a key has recently been added, but I can't seem to figure out which key it is. Is there a list of non-menu-related hotkeys somewhere obvious that I'm missing? I think I read about the mute-mike hotkey in the release notes for the Aug. 18, '04 release.
And:
2. a hot key that would be used like the control key (in some programs) is used for press-to-talk. I guess I am thinking this would be especially helpful if you are holding a conference . . . so people don't talk over one another. I am not very familiar with audio-chat, though; perhaps a press-to-talk hotkey is not necessary for some reason I am not thinking of?
Thanks for any help.
I've been learning a lot as I've been lurking on the list for the last ten days or so; I'm beginning to think that maybe, one day, I'll have the time and info I need to digitize some of my analog music tapes. Thanks for all the info shared on this list.
Best,
Jennifer
