Hi,
From what I've heard, you have to use the mouse to change your Mood
Message in Skype on the Mac. I know someone who did it, but he used the
mouse to do it since VO wouldn't work corectly with it.

I've posted about this before, and got a response, but, everything that
you guies have suggested doesn't seem to be working, and I honestly feel
I've exhausted literally! every single possibility. Basicly, I am using
my Powermac G4 Quick Silver running OSX10.5 Leopard, with Skype version
2.7. I have it set up to compact view. I have the toolbar enabled.
While sitting in the main skype window, if I do vo m to get to the menu
bar, then go over to the account menu, and finally hit return on edit
mood message... I cannot for the heaven forbids good God glory glory
hallelujah on high! figure out where the gardenning heck! you go to reach
the text box where I can type in my mood msg. Man, I tell ya! I
interacted literally with every blessid thing on that screen. I've taken
the mouse and did vo shift space, and clicked on almost everything, with
no go. A friend a mine, Jessie Hernandez, suggested maybe it was
possible that you only can do this on an Intel based system. Somehow, I
have a slightly hard time chewing that. I'm not accusing him a being
wrong, as much as I'm just saying, that sounds a bit preposterous. I'd
love it if someone could write me off list, or could call me, even
better, and let's go through it together, and see if we can get to the
bottom a this, as really, that is about the only thing holding me back
from using Skype on my Mac on a more regular basis. I will say this. I
do! have it set to show what is playing in ITunes as my mood text, which
is in advanced under preferences, however, somehow, I don't think that
really would matter. Beside, I've unchecked that box, and still couldn't
find the edit field to type into. I even shut down ITunes entirely, with
command q, but that didn't seem to help.
Anyway, if anyone's willing to try and help, write me and let me know,
either on or off list. Also, if you're willing, give me your number off
list, and I'll call ya, and we can look at this together.
Remember, if you reply directly to this mail with command R, it's gonna
go to the whole list.
