Scotty,
 
I have not been able to get this to work consistently for different reasons at different times.  Most recently, I tried to call my client and got a message that I didn’t have enough “Skype credit” to make this call.  What does that mean?  Then they tried to call me and got the same message.  Later that day I contacted my son who also has a Macbook Pro with no problem.  My client also has a Macbook pro.  Is there anyone anywhere who I could call on a telephone when I’m having trouble with this?  The internet cable people know nothing about it.  Microsoft no longer has a phone service for this.  I can’t figure out how to use your website or the icon you put on my screen.

It sounds like you are making two separate type of Skype calls. Skype to Skype is free but Skype to a regular phone or cell phone requires $$$ in the form of “Skype credit”. That is most likely the reason you are able to call the son’s macbook pro with no problem but run into problems when you are trying to call the friend. This is because you are trying to call the friend’s phone, not his/her computer. I’m sorry you are having difficulty with the website. For monday night help, you can go to www.sellsconsulting.com/townhall at 7pm on Mondays then select the link titled “click here to join” and you’ll be in my weekly meeting online. It’s free and you may find other people have similar questions.

Thanks.  I will.  Still I don’t understand how skype to skype is different procedurally. Isn’t your skype id…what you dial up, the telephone number you put in that dial thing that appears on the screen?  In other words, I still have the most important question.  How do I contact my client to skype without using the phone number?


He would need to have a Skype ID.  And a Skype ID is not his phone number.  It's a name of some sort.  My Skype ID is "tibookscotty".  If you typed that into Skype it would be free but if you typed my phone number in it would cost money.
