Anyone know of an easy way to save a voicemail message left via Skype 5? I
assume the voice message must sit on Skype servers, I can find any record of
it on my local disk.
Hi Steven,
A couple of ways you can check out.
/Quote:
(HAVE A MAC? There are many, many software choices for the MAC, but you don’t
need to pay extra for recording software on a MAC, because it is a feature of
GarageBand, which comes loaded with your computer.
Another thing you can do if you have a MAC is buy a Skype plug-in called Call
Recorder for Skype.)
Procedure:
1) Dial your voice mail or answering machine number from your VoIP service. (In
Skype, you look for “Call Phones” to find the initial dialer to dial your
voicemail number. Then you click on the little icon called “Dial Pad” to get
another dial where you will be able to key-in your password.) (It’s not labeled
as “dial pad” but if you hover your mouse over the little icons, you will see
the right one.)
2) Begin recording using the phone recording software. Use the “Wave Out Mix”
recording source setting. (Make sure any microphones connected to your computer
are turned off or temporarily deactivated via the control panel on your
computer.) This would be usb or audio inputted mic, headset, or webcam.
Otherwise, you will inadvertantly add to the sound with your room noise and
mouse clicks and coughing, etc.)
3) Save file as .wav, .mp3, or .aif so you can use as needed.
