regarding setting keyboard shortcuts in Skype
I accidentally erased the email, but to the person wanting to set shortcuts in Skype, you can probably do that. There is a way to set a keyboard shortcut for any command that appears in any menu of an app; you select the app, enter the menu item, enter your shortcut, and there you go. I haven't looked at Skype (I don't have it) to see if the answer call item is anywhere in a menu, but if it is then this method should work. I wrote a guide on how to do this: http://bit.ly/SY6PPp Have a great day, Alex (msg sent from Mac Mini) mehg...@gmail.com -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

RE: keyboard shortcuts for Skype
One thing to remember is that these keyboard shortcuts will only work while you are in the application. So you won't be able to be in a wordprocessor, for example, and automatically answer a call. You will first need to make sure you are in Skype. -Original Message- From: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com [mailto:macvisionar...@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Jonathan C.

Under Keyboard and mouse there is a tab called keyboard shortcuts. By default there are no skype shortcuts, but below the table are two buttons the first is add and the second is remove. I did not actually try this myself, but when you click that first button it gives instructions. Give it a wirl and let us know.

Re: keyboard shortcuts for Skype
Hello, Just to add to this, Anne Robertson once gave a very good description of setting up new keyboard shortcuts which should still b available in the archives of the discussion group. I can't off-hand remember the url for the discussion archive - sorry not to be very helpful. The important point to remember is when you type in the name of the menu item to which your shortcut is to point, you must enter it exactly as it appears in the menu. Also, remember to choose a shortcut combination that's not likely to clash with another existing one. With best wishes, Anna, Simon On 25 Jul 2009, at 00:05, Jonathan C.

keyboard shortcuts for Skype
Hi, Now that I have a working microphone for Skype, are there any keyboard shortcuts for answering calls, hanging up, etc.? I tried Skype help, but couldn't find anything.
