There is a call in Skype: what to do?

It is possible that when you try to contact your family or friends, you will come across the fact that the call does not go through in Skype. Unfortunately, this happens, but do not despair and cut off this way of communication. This problem is easily eliminated, in this article we will just figure out how to solve it.

Initially, of course, you will need to find out the very cause of the problem, but fortunately, there are not so many of them, so let's talk about each one in turn.

Problems in connection

The first thing that every Skype user complains about is a bad connection. This is the most common problem. Unfortunately, if the call does not take place in Skype due to a connection problem, then there is no solution. We can only analyze the situation and draw natural conclusions. For example, that it is necessary to change the provider.

So, to make sure that the call does not go through in Skype because of an unstable Internet connection, you need to check it. The fact is that Skype at low Internet speed does not allow to call the subscriber. To check, you can use special utilities or visit the site on which this check is available.

You can, of course, not bother and just open the browser. If the Internet is "weak", then you will notice it immediately, as the pages will load for a very long time or will not load at all.

To overcome this problem, you can call your provider and find out why the speed is so low. Another option is waiting. If you previously had the speed of the Internet in order, then it is possible that the problem of reducing it is temporary.

Malfunction with microphone

How strange it may sound, but sometimes there is no call in Skype, because there are problems with the microphone. But before you deal with this problem, you need to make sure that the microphone is guilty. Fortunately, it's very easy to do this. In this case, the call goes through and your interlocutor even is able to pick up the phone, but as soon as he does this, the connection is interrupted. If so, then the microphone is guilty.

Solution

So, why does not the call go to Skype, we found out, now we'll figure out how to deal with this. For this you need:

1. In the program window click on "Tools". It is located on the top panel.
2. In the drop-down menu, find the item "Settings" and click on it with the left mouse button.
3. In the window that appears, select "Sound Settings" - the section is located on the left side of the window.
4. Look at the "Microphone" block.

Here you must find out whether the microphone is being used. Make it simple, next to the inscription "Microphone" is a drop-down list, where you can select the microphone you want. Pay attention also to the inscription "Volume". Next to her there is a slider, if to speak into the microphone, then it should fill with green color - this means that the microphone is working. By the way, sometimes reinstalling the driver on the microphone helps.

Now you know the answer to the question: "There is not a call in Skype, what should I do?" If these methods of solving the problem did not help you, then most likely you have problems with the operating system or with the program itself. In this case, try reinstalling them.
