Re: Skype on mac or Ios.

[Julie Rattray]

Hi,

I have it on my laptop and iPad and I find the iPad version much better than 
the laptop version the latter is far too clunky whereas the iOS version seems 
to be more streamlined and so more user friendly

Re: Skype on mac or Ios.

['Donna Goodin' via MacVisionaries]

Hi Anders,

No, stuff is labeled, but the interface is very clunky, there’s no doubt about 
that. But when a phone call comes in, say from your flute teacher, you can just 
hit tab and then VO-Space to answer the call with voice only. I think you can 
just press Enter to answer with video, but I don’t usually do that, so I may 
not be right about that.

Hi!
I just want to use it as for some flute lessons.
So that might work then.
Is there something to think about with VoiceOver?
Are there a lot  of unlabelled buttons.

Re: Skype on mac or Ios.

['Donna Goodin' via MacVisionaries]

Hi Anders,

I use Skype on the Mac pretty regularly, and though it’s not my favorite app, 
it is usable. I don’t do anything fancy with it. I just use it to take phone 
calls. But it works for that.

As for IOS, I have Skype on my phone, but don’t use it much, so someone else 
can probably give you a better answer there.
Cheers,
Donna

Hi Simon.

It’s not bad on the IOS devices.  But three years ago, you could at least 
install Skype on the Mac without a lot of going to and fro in each and every 
section of what is your user name or password etc.  I have no idea how I 
installed it on the Mac.  At least I have now the hang of getting an 
application copied from the DMG volume and put it in the applications folder as 
I use to have a lot of trouble understanding that one but a break from the Mac 
must have helped!

I’m sticking to Audio Face time if I can help it.  But companies want to use

It’s not bad on the IOS devices.  But three years ago, you could at least 
install Skype on the Mac without a lot of going to and fro in each and every

Re: Skype for Mac is Dreadful

['Kawal Gucukoglu' via MacVisionaries]

I’m sticking to Audio Face time if I can help it.  But companies want to use 
Skype and if you are looking for work, and you do a job, you have to use Skype. 
 I just got the hang of Windows Skype, but the Mac Skype, no thanks.

Skype for Mac is Dreadful

['Kawal Gucukoglu' via MacVisionaries]

I downloaded Skype for Mac just in case someone had to call me on it and it’s 
dreadful.  The buttons are not labelled.

No idea why Microsoft do not sort it out as it’s been dreadful for years.

I find it very, very very clunky to have to tab around as much as I had to in

Mark on the Latest Version of Skype for Mac

[M. Taylor]

Hello Everyone,

Some time ago, I thought I read on this list that the more recent versions
of Skype (by Microsoft) were not terribly voiceover friendly.

Well, during the past week, I've had occasion to use the latest version of
Skype on my Mac and I must say that I am extremely pleased with what
Microsoft has done.  

I find the app completely VoiceOver friendly, easy to use, easy to
understand, and best of all, containing some accessibility features geared
towards those of us who are low vision.  For example, I particularly like
the new color themes one can select to vary display contrast.  

Also, I was delighted to discover that the Mac version of the app now
mirrors the layout of Skype for iOS making it easier, in my opinion, to
switch between the two platforms.

So, if you haven't used the latest version of Skype for Mac with VoiceOver,
perhaps you should consider giving it a try.

Mark

situation regarding Skype for mac

[aliFaisal]

Hello everyone,
I noticed that Skype got upgraded on my mac to the latest version, despite me 
having the checkbox unchecked to update automatically. It is now super laggy, 
and I cannot make heads or tails of it. Has anyone either found a workaround 
for this latest and super slow Skype. If not, is there anything we can do to 
make it work with voiceover?

RE: skype for mac

[Simon Fogarty]

HI Jean,

 That's one of those things I guess,

You find the OSX version ok I have trouble with it, you have trouble with the 
IOS version I try not to use anything else.

Weird,

 I'm having trouble at the moment connecting to my skype for business account 
on my ipHone but that's probably a net work issue at my end.

 As for the Bluejeans network,

What is Bluejeans?

Othe rthan levis or hugo boss?

RE: Skype for Mac

[Simon Fogarty]

Hi Chris,

 Skype for business works in conjunction with a server that you authenticate 
against to access it and it gives you things through outlook such as is a work 
colleague at their desk before you transfer a call to them via skype for 
business,
 Voicemail, call forwarding to mobiles or other numbers within your voip system.
 Basically it is a business system formily it was known as lynk which was the 
Microsoft phone system,

 And it gives you built in phone services like voicemail call transferring, 
caller id although that is in skype, intergration with outlook or exchange and 
the global address book within exchange 

Where as skype you only see who you have in your contacts and or who you search 
or make a call to.

Skype for business is really just a voip phone system.

Re: Skype for Mac

[Doug Lee]

Skype For Business was formerly Microsoft Lync 2013, before which it was 
Microsoft Lync 2010, and before that
Microsoft Office Communicator. Recent versions of this evolving application 
have appeared visually more like
Skype, though under the hood they have remained more like Lync. From an 
accessibility standpoint, I consider
them completely different applications.

Another difference is that Skype For Business (SFB) requires a server to be set 
up and is thus generally found
in office environments, where the server is set up by the company for the 
employees to use. Skype is more
decentralized and requires no such administrative setup.

Continuing with the office-centric paradigm, SFB can interface with Outlook, 
calendars, etc., to create a more
seamless environment for managing contacts, meetings, record keeping, and so 
on. Skype can interface with
contact lists, but to my knowledge not anything for managing email, 
meetings/appointments, etc.

Hth.

I have both skype and skype for business on my phone and iPad and they work 
great from there,

 Can't say I've had luck with it on my mac book, widnows worked fine last time 
I tried it.

Well shucks. Just tested the iOS app and it connected there. So I will 
delete Skype from the Mac and then install it again. So strange.

Re: Skype for Mac

[E.T.]

Mark,
   Works now after deleting and reinstalling Skype. Was not easy for it 
messed with Bluetooth audio out. Yosemite was lots more reliable in this 
respect. Wired or wireless headsets work fine, but Bluetooth is a stinker.

Re: Skype for Mac

[Caitlyn Furness]

I am using skype for mac.  I just tried it on Saturday and it was terrible.  I 
couldn’t figure out how to call one of my contacts, so went for skype on my 
phone instead.  Had massive problems joining a conference call there as well.  
Not sure what’s going on, but hope they fix it soon!

Hi E.T. This is Helga! How are you? I use skype for  my  Mac sometimes! How can 
I update my skype? and how do I know I have  the oldest version? And one last 
question, how can I refresh my conversations? It looks like to me when I don't 
use my skype for my Mac for a long time that my recent conversations don't 
appear on it. I usually use my skype app on my apple devices, but when I go to 
check my conversations on my Mac, they don't appear there! Do you have any  
idea what can cause that? I'm just wondering! I look forward in hearing from 
you soon. Thanks and God bless!

Re: Skype for mac

[Christopher-Mark Gilland]

Actually, Pam, it does make sense.  I've boobooed and done this before 
myself.  It happens to the best of us.  And BTW, stop feeling like quote 
unquote an idiot!  As I said, this isn't a big deal.  I bet I know what 
happened, and if I am correct, this is extremely easy to fix.


What I bet probably happened is, you probably accidentally removed the app 
from your applications directory.  In doing this however, you didn't remove 
the icon from your dock.  So, when you hit vo+D, probably what's happenning 
is, it's trying to open the Skype.app file from your applications directory, 
but because it's no longer there, nothing is happenning.  So, therefore, to 
fix this issue, what you'll want to do is to download Skype again, copy the 
skype.app file from the download dmg, paste it into your applications 
directory like normal, go to your dock, find the Skype icon, vo+shift+M on 
it, select options, then remove from dock.  Now, finally, go back over to 
your applications directory, find skype.app, then hit ctrl+command+shift+T 
to add it again back to your dock.


Now, you'll have a fresh icon that properly references the skype.app file. 
Now, if you go to your dock, and hit vo+space, or return on Skype, it should 
launch with no issues at all.


Chris.

Hi folks,
Thank you so much. I feel like such an idiot.
My one question would be why would the icon remain on my dock if it would 
not access the file? That makes no sense. If someone could please explain 
that I would appreciate it.

  Hi Pam,
  I wonder if you didn't copy the app file into your applications folder from

  You can go to www.skye.com and download the disk image, copy the Skype.app

I never have known Skype to be in the mac app store.  Did I miss something 
I'm unaware of?  I was under the impression you've always had to get it from


http://www.skype.com

Guys, if I'm wrong, then do fill me in.

Re: Skype for Mac

[Terje Strømberg]

And after interacting with the table to the left, you can use vo + j to jump 
between three windows(more like areas). For example if you are in an chat 
conversation with Madonna, you can jump from Madonna to chat history with 
Madonna to text edit wtih Madonna to back to Madonna in the table to the left 
where you have fks. contacts and favorites et cetera. But, you have to interact 
with the table first.

Re: Skype for Mac

[David Taylor]

Hi, when you receive a call, you should get a dialog pop up, with answer being 
the default button, so simply pressing return will answer. The way I use Skype 
is to use VO-J to jump me between the table and other parts of the window. So I 
interact with the table and find where it says contacts, then VO-J jumps me 
straight into my contacts list and interacts. To change which contacts you see, 
uninteract and VO left to select whichever radio button you want, then 
VO-shift-right to get back to the list. VO-J from the contact list gets you 
back to the table again.

When you get a contact request, find it in the table, then use your item 
chooser or VO-right until you find the accept button. 

I love how Skype works on Mac, find it really fast and efficient.

Cheers
Dave

Re: Skype for Mac

[Jonathan Mosen]

The command to answer a call is Command+Shift+R. This will also initiate a call 
on the focussed contact if you use it when there's no incoming call.
Skype for Mac is absolutely packed with keyboard shortcuts. The full list is 
here:

 Hi,
 Further to what Alex has said, you can see your list of contacts by 
 interacting with the table on the left, focusing on contacts, uninteract and 
 move to the right with vo right arrow. Keep doing this until you find your 
 list of contacts. That's how I do it anyway. 
 There's no short cut for answering a call which is a shame, but there is for 
 hanging up (command shift h).

Skype on Mac: what should I know?

[Alex Hall]

Hi all,
I am about to put Skype on my Mac for the first time. I know the program, but 
have used it only on my iOS devices for a couple years, and on Windows before 
that. Are there accessibility concerns regarding this application on the Mac? 
Is there anything VO-related I need to know? Any settings I should configure a 
certain way? Thanks in advance.


Have a great day,

Re: Skype on Mac: what should I know?

[Mark BurningHawk Baxter]

I use Skype on the Mac all the time. While there are no accessibility concerns, 
I would say that some of the command patterns are a little lugubrious, 
involving many keystrokes to accomplish seemingly simple action. Other than 
that, however, it is perfectly accessible in music, and as I said, I use it all 
the time.

If you have specific questions, once you start using it in daily operations, 
feel free to let me know.

Re: Skype on Mac: what should I know?

[Alex Hall]

Great, thanks. Hopefully the options I use will be in the menus, so I can 
assign my own keyboard shortcuts to them. Well, I'll find out soon. Still, I'm 
glad there are no major problems; I see Skype come up on here every so often, 
but never followed the conversations because I never used it before. I thought, 
due to its coming up so much, that there must be problems with it. I'm glad I 
was wrong!

Re: Skype on Mac: what should I know?

[Chris H]

I actually think Skype is much better accessibility wise on the mac 
however I do admit to using the client on the other platform but require 
third party software in order for it to be fully accessible. not so on 
the mac. One nice feature in the mac client is the ability to use the 
system voice to announce various events on Skype. It was a while since I 
set up Skype on my mac but it's all there in Preferences, command-comma.

Re: Skype on Mac: what should I know?

[Rachel Feinberg]

Vo+J is your friend when accessing chat history and when going from table to 
table.
Also, keep in mind that when you're sitting in a chat window on skype, it won't 
make the sound to let you know a new message has come in. So you'll probably 
want to command+tab away from the application while waiting for a new message, 
then skype will make the alert.
Other than that, and if you remember to be out of the application when waiting 
for a message, it's a pretty good experience.
Have fun, and shout if you have questions!

Re: What a mess in Skype for Mac.

[Ray Foret Jr]

Nope.  Not really a mess at all.  Look just to the right of the tool bar.  
You'll notice that it's all organized in tables.  Contacts is the third table.  
You want then to organize by online contacts.  That's done with the radio 
buttons just to the right of the table.  Another thing you want to do is go in 
to Skype's view menu and set it to show contacts by list instead of by picture.

Jus a few points to get you started.


Sincerely,
The Constantly Barefooted Ray
Still a very proud and happy Mac and Iphone user!

Kawal,

I use Skype on both my mac and on my phone and find neither clunky at all. 
Especially not the IPhone version.  Where are you finding you have to 
vo+right arrow to see your contacts on the mac version.  I'm not seeing that 
at all.


Thank you kindly,

VO left and right to see which contact was online.  I'll change the contacts to 
list.  It's wonderful to be writing on a computer again especially the Mac.

Re: What a mess in Skype for Mac.

[Mike Arrigo]

Actually, I think skype on the mac is more accessible than windows. After the 
tool bar, you will have a table, interact with that and you can select what 
shows on the rest of the screen.

Re: What a mess in Skype for Mac.

[Mark Baxter]

Skype's layout is a wonderful example of why it's helpful to be able to 
visualize the screen and where things are on it.  Vo is making lots of sounds 
to tell you this table is below the screen in relation to the tool bar, but 
this table is right next to it, separated by a vertical bar,, and results of 
these tables appears below your current position in the window.  If you start 
to visualize where in the process you're changing which parameters, it starts 
to make some more sense.

Re: Skype opinions: Mac or iPhone

 do you know of a tutorial or podcast which explains Skype while using voice

search on Google for such a podcast or tutorial, but could not find anything 
which helps with VoiceOver. Thank you.

Re: Skype opinions: Mac or iPhone

[Lisette Wesseling]

Hi Christine
I don't know of any tutorials for skype on the iPhone.
When you are in the contacts list, double tap on the person's name. Then look 
for a voice call or video call button and double tap that. If the person is not 
online you won't be able to call, so make sure you pick someone who actually is 
online. 
You can also choose to display just the online contacts. I can't give you more 
precise instructions at the moment because my phone is not with me right now. 
But it's really not difficult on the iPhone. I wonder if you are trying to call 
someone who is not online. Just a thought.

So, even if I took a person's actual phone number from my contacts, if he or

Re: Skype opinions: Mac or iPhone

[Red.Falcon]

Ok I'm confused about this!
I thought you could call any mobiles or landlines if you have Skype credit!
So Skype should not be needed for those numbers!
Or have I got that wrong!
Of course Skype to Skype needs both open!

Re: Skype opinions: Mac or iPhone

[Lisette Wesseling]

Hi
Yes you can call any phone if you have purchased  skype credit. I've not done 
that from the app, but I was assuming Christine was wanting to call skype to 
skype without the credit.
If you want to call someone free on skype, you need to add them as a skype 
contact using their skype name. And as Ricardo says, that person needs to be 
signed into skype before you can call them.
I don't have skype credit so can't tell you how to do that using the app.

 When you are in the contacts list, double tap on the person's name. Then 
 look for a voice call or video call button and double tap that. If the 
 person is not online you won't be able to call, so make sure you pick 
 someone who actually is online. 
 You can also choose to display just the online contacts. I can't give you

Re: Skype opinions: Mac or iPhone

[Christine Grassman]

You were correct; I was trying to call Skype to Skype. Now I'm trying to set 
Skype up on my Mac, because I was asked to interview on an Internet radio show 
via Skype, and I was told that using the iPhone will produce too much echoing 
for that sort of thing. But I'm having a heck of a time. The set-up guide is 
showing empty html, and when I just opened Skype to take the tour, and clicked 
on set-up, there is no real guidance of any kind -- I'm hearing things like no 
microphone and play which plays the Skype noise, but attempts to do anything 
with the pop-up menus results in a very odd, rapid bunch of what sounds like 
numbers, but I cannot interact to make any choices. I also have not the 
slightest idea how to test the camera for video calls, and as I have mentioned 
earlier, I can't seem to find any information on using this from a blind 
person's point of view.

Re: Skype opinions: Mac or iPhone

[Lisette Wesseling]

Hi
In my opinion, the iPhone is easier than the Mac for skype. The mac involves a 
bit of interacting with things and moving to different areas of the screen. 
It's not difficult on the Mac, don't get me wrong. I just think skype on the 
iPhone is really easy.
Good luck.

skype for mac and listening to voicemail

[Paul Erkens]

Dear listers,
I just noticed that I have voicemail from skype. I turned it on, and I thought 
I would get a notification inside Skype if a new voicemail arrives. However, I 
now see that, on my spambox, I have a message from skype saying I received a 
new voicemail from a list member here. I looked into skype to find how to play 
voicemails, but I don't know how to do it. Closest I got was in the history 
list. At the end of September, I got this voicemail message, but trying to 
bring up a context menu on a history list item won't let me listen to the 
voicemail in question. Once I know from email that I have a message, how do you 
play it?
Paul.

Re: skype for mac and listening to voicemail

[Mark BurningHawk Baxter]

Find the name of the person who sent the voice mail; it will either be in the 
the table right below the tool bar or, if it's very old, in the history list 
table.  Select it and press Enter to exit the tables and go back to the main 
window.  Find the HTML content frame and interact with it.  VO right until you 
find the play or stop voice mail button.  Click it.  That should start the 
playback.  How you delete them, I have no idea, and I shudder to think how many 
voice mails are stored somewhere that I don't need any more...

Re: Skype On Mac

I've had similar problems, it sounds like the touch tones send, but the system 
doesn't respond, and after entering several numbers, the touch tone feature no 
longer works. I don't know, originally I liked skype 5 better, but the more I 
use it, the more I'm seeing lots of small problems that when combined make me 
think that perhaps skype 2.8 was a bit better.

Re: Skype On Mac

[Ray Foret Jr]

Once you enter the dial pad, you will notice that the virtual keypad is layed 
out like a touch tone phone keypad.  You just navigate to the digits you wish 
to press and use VO+space to press them.  I have noticed, however, that with 
the latest versions of Skype, touch tones to seem to be lingering quite long 
when pressed; and, I have recently had issues calling my own land line.  I 
believe that Skype has made some changes which adversly effect the use of the 
dialpad.

Voice mail on Skype for Mac and the Iphone 4.

[Kawal Gucukoglu]

Dear All.

I had a voicemail on my Skype application which I managed to listen to in the 
end after playing with the History items on the Mac.

My problems are these on the Mac Book Pro and my Iphone 4.

First of all, even though my Voice Mail is active on my I Phone 4, I cannot 
play messages left on Skype Voicemail as I have not been able to find voice 
mail button on my I phone when in the Skype application.  So I'd like to know 
how to access Skype's Voice Mail if I'm out and about with my Iphone 4?  I 
don't take my Mac Book Pro every where.

Secondly, on my Iphone 4 and my Mac Book Pro, and my Skype, I cannot click the 
record button so to record my own message so it defaults to the message which 
plays if you have not recorded the message.

I have tried pressing voice over and the mouse cursor but it does not work all 
the time as the voice cursor is already highlighting two buttons but you don't 
know what the buttons are.

I am not on the Iphone list to ask any one these things relating to the Iphone. 
 So I am asking my questions here.  I hope the moderators will excuse this as I 
do not post often to the list.

Does anyone else have these problems on the I phone and on their Mac Book or 
any other Mac?  If so, has anyone had a work around or does anyone know if any 
of the companies are going to fix these accessibility problems?  I suspect 
these problems are not there if you do not use Voice Over on both products.

Thanks again and any help on this would be appreciated.

Kawal.

Re: Voice mail on Skype for Mac and the Iphone 4.

[Sarah Alawami]

You double click the voicemail thing in history and find the play button. Each 
voicemail will be in the list but it will look like a contact missed call or 
what not.

Take care.

 I had a voicemail on my Skype application which I managed to listen to in the 
 end after playing with the History items on the Mac.
 
 My problems are these on the Mac Book Pro and my Iphone 4.
 
 First of all, even though my Voice Mail is active on my I Phone 4, I cannot 
 play messages left on Skype Voicemail as I have not been able to find voice 
 mail button on my I phone when in the Skype application.  So I'd like to know 
 how to access Skype's Voice Mail if I'm out and about with my Iphone 4?  I 
 don't take my Mac Book Pro every where.
 
 Secondly, on my Iphone 4 and my Mac Book Pro, and my Skype, I cannot click 
 the record button so to record my own message so it defaults to the message 
 which plays if you have not recorded the message.
 
 I have tried pressing voice over and the mouse cursor but it does not work 
 all the time as the voice cursor is already highlighting two buttons but you 
 don't know what the buttons are.
 
 I am not on the Iphone list to ask any one these things relating to the 
 Iphone.  So I am asking my questions here.  I hope the moderators will excuse 
 this as I do not post often to the list.
 
 Does anyone else have these problems on the I phone and on their Mac Book or 
 any other Mac?  If so, has anyone had a work around or does anyone know if 
 any of the companies are going to fix these accessibility problems?  I 
 suspect these problems are not there if you do not use Voice Over on both 
 products.
 
 Thanks again and any help on this would be appreciated.
 
 Kawal.
