I think that sort of thing is usually caused by having another device
(or devices) signed into the same account. It's ok to do that, but
sometimes it causes your online status to change unexpectedly based on
one device's idea of what it should be.
Also, if you use this Skype account on a mobile device such as an
iPhone, signing out on the device may still leave you signed in but
Away from Skype's perspective because of push notifications. I suppose
that could make your non-mobile Skype see you as Away when next
signing in.

Hi all.
Using windows 7 with the latest version of Skype, and the scripts work fine.
For some reason, Skype shows me as Away at startup. Usually, it just shows my
status as Online.
Anyone else with that problem?
I've reset the status to Online.
It showed Away when I signed in this morning.
Jerry.

I'll let you know with Windows 7 since that one has JAWS 15, no I've not
upgraded to 16, but if I ever do, I shall upgrade to Windows 10 on the
other laptop like I've done with NVDA on this one I'm writing from which
I can't run the scripts you gave us for JAWS seeing I'm running NVDA on
the HPG72, the other laptop the HP Probook 6570b is the one that is
Windows 7 still with JAWS 15 which I shall test out with those scripts,
as if I'm not sounding even more confusing already. Sorry for all the
troubles Doug. Thanks for all the work you do to make scripts for Skype
for JFW. I sure wish I could use Skype on the HPG72, it has a great
micr4ophone, whereas the other laptop has a not so good one...will look
for my headset and pray it still works.

that the world is a trustworthy place; that it is full of light, and love, and
music and that each student deserves--and will have--their own place in it and
the chance to play their own song.
And, as much of these expectations are transmitted non-verbally?and in Chela?s

what the world can be.

There are indeed checkboxes to turn these things off during
installation. I installed 7.8 and unchecked them on my way through. To
find them, make sure you Tab around every screen during installation
to see what's there. I don't remember the sequence well enough to tell
you exact field names, but I remember first seeing a screen with a
checkbox for installing Skype Click to Call, then another screen with
two checkboxes, one for "Make Bing my search engine" and the other for
something else. Every single time I run a Skype installer, all three
of these are checked by default.

Has anyone else had this problem? I didn't see any boxes to uncheck at
the time I ran the update file which would have opted me out of getting
this Bing process, and having my home page and search providers changed
in my Internet browsers. Did I miss some check boxes, or do they put
this on everybody's computers who update to Skype7.8 now?
Thank you.

First these are not dialogs.
These are html like documents. They must be reviewed with brows mode. I
can not reproduce any problems with any of these using the brows mode of
NVDA with skype.
The same is true for jaws.
One problem I have seen is sometimes skype does not focus the document.
If this happens you can do one of two things. First use split window view.
This means that each one of these documents will come up in it own window
that you can close if you like.
Second option is just press control 1 to focus the contact list if you are
using jaws and alt+1 for everything else.
Now press the option you want to see for example control h for home.
Using windows 10 skype latest version nvda 2015.3 rc1 and the next
branch. You can also use object review to work with this if you like.

Hi.
I am having problems with some skype dialogues under windows 7 64 bit.
I don't know if the experience is better under 32 bit.
i am using nvda by the way but I tried with jaws demo with not much success.
Some of these dialogues don't read anything at all. For example skype home,
send feedback under help menu, the sign in screen etc.
I think with each version it starts gradually becoming much worst.
