How to connect SKYPE: Step-by-step instruction.

Instructions are long and tedious documents that no one normally reads. The task of this review is to write a simple step-by-step instruction on how to connect the SKYPE. It will be interesting for users far from computer coasts.

Our favorite national sport is rafting, which you can be sure of by reading questions from novice users on computer forums. Usually we buy electronics or household appliances, bring home, turn on and start pressing all the buttons. When the method of "scientific tyke" does not give the desired result - we begin bombing questions forums or "knowledgeable comrades." Some buyers pay money for connecting and setting up equipment to self-taught specialists who are ready to take money for "just plug into the outlet."

All you need to do is read the instruction, then read it again, and only after that start turning on, twisting, pressing and tuning. Despite the seeming complexity and "tightness" of such a process, this path is the shortest and the right one: instructions are written to avoid mistakes or, even worse, breakdowns of equipment complete with the psychological trauma of the owners.

However, enough foreplay. Let's turn to the essence of the question: "how to connect SKIP". First you need to make sure that you have access to the Internet and the necessary equipment on the computer itself. For comfortable work of the program, connection to the Internet is desirable with a speed from 512 Kbps to 1 Mbps, and the higher the speed - the more stable and stable the program will work. For group video communication - from 2 to 8 Mbit / s.

For fans of using mobile Internet: the speed and stability of the program depends on the speed of the Internet. The actual speed may be different from the number that your provider claims. Consider this when organizing all kinds of group videoconferences or training events.

Now with regard to equipment. Now most laptops are equipped with a microphone and webcam. If you are not very demanding on the quality of picture and sound - the standard equipment will be enough for the usual communication with friends and relatives. For more serious tasks, it is recommended to purchase a separate headset and a web camera.

Before connecting the SKIPE - it must first be installed. For this you need:

1. Go to the official website;
2. Select the "Download Skype" tab;
3. Select the version for Windows;
4. Find the "Download" button;
5. Then you need to save the file;
6. After the start of the program, you must select the language and agree with the terms of use of the program;
7. Further the program will be installed on your computer in an automatic mode.

If you have not used SKIP before, you need to register. For this, there is the item "Registration of new users". The program redirects you to your site, where, using hints, you need to enter data for registration.

Pressing the "I agree" button will complete the registration of the new user. The next step is making money (which is not necessary at all). The final chord of the registration is "Continue". In the already familiar window you need to enter the Skype login and the password that you specified when registering. If you suddenly forgot your login and password - look in your mailbox, which was specified during registration. There necessarily will be a letter with your registration data. Important! When entering the login and password, consider the case of letters - "size matters"!

After entering the login and password, the program will offer to test the connected devices - a microphone and a webcam. Do not hesitate, check. This will make sure the equipment is working. Check can be done later, when making a test call.

As for the question "how to connect the SKIP to the laptop". This manual is suitable for both desktop PCs, laptops and netbooks. Now you know how to connect the SKYPE. A laptop with Skype will expand the horizons of communication and make the world as accessible as possible.

That, in fact, and all the wisdom. I hope that the instructions on how to connect Skype turned out to be not very long and not very boring. Enjoy and have fun.
