Which I think is a W7 flaw, because the whole reason I have a laptop for teaching is the W7 refused to toggle between headphones and speakers. Refused. Pointblank. I had to get a laptop to be able to wear headphones!
And yes I could load skype on the laptop but oh my, how seductive, to be looking like a call-centre operative (or TEFL teacher) on skype calls
Bogie, it is refusing to give up the default of a separate microphone which I don't have and have not needed before, instead of the default of the Realtek built-in one
Molly, no, I suddenly noticed the throng of my profile admirers was just short of a deliciously round figure. But they do all seem to be blokes, obviously the stern and ancient Guardians of the Site do not hold with a little bi-curious ticking of boxes
Alan, nothing for it, you're going to have to hop over here and sort it out. Putting 'Settings' in my search is not coming up with the options we had hoped for.
Nice and warm, here, though, get you away from that chilly winter
Limun, double-checked that, it is the version I'm on. I'm quite tempted to delete the whole thing and start again, see if that helps, I only talk to 2 or 3 people on a regular basis anyway, easy enough to reconnect with them.
I could of course be blaming skype when it is a Microsoft upgrade, they keep saying they are no longer supporting W7 and yet ... keep doing updates.
Tilla, not with you - are you saying I'm as round as a ball, i.e. fat? I've actually lost weight since my 2016 photo (on my profile), if my arms were but longer I could take a full-length selfie (which would show my building biceps, cor, they're pretty too)
thanks Alan, unfortunately I don't have W10 on the pc and won't upgrade - I have it on the laptop and hate it. After seeing your link I found an equivalent for W7 but both W7 and Skype have evolved so much, since the link was created in 2013, that all the headings quoted have disappeared.
So I don't Skype anymore, all those generals and admirals wanting to be my friend will be disappointed but I suspect they find a lot of disappointment in their lives already
Fake news IS news. The entire world is seething with it.
The idea is to destroy credibility so no-one believes anything they are told and whether your (insert name of preferred person here) has done anything criminal shameful or just wrong, we can ignore it, the fake news flag can be hoisted.
And just look at us buying into it. We're too stupid to handle the real stuff, we don't deserve any better.
TR, you don't think that's a little OTT for a first message?
I'm always taken aback by passionate outpourings from someone who never met me, knows nothing about me, and hasn't even bothered to read my profile, but is promising eternal love.
Would a guy's reaction to an equivalent letter be whoohoo, I struck gold? In which case I am going to change my approach
It's like the last thing they do - they're about to hit "delete profile", , nearly forgot - dart back in to scatter likes before they finally pick up their keys and go.
Either that or liking me is basic obliteration. KABOOM.
Microphone no longer working after skype update
Bogie, babe, you wanna skype?
