Sherlew how hard is it to figure out Skype? My sister uses it and wants me to also so that we can talk and see each other in stead of just over the phone.

I was just trying to set this up and wasn't able to do so. I wasn't comfortable giving them the password to my email account so I tried to set it up with my phone number instead and it didn't work.

They want your email password? That's unusual.

From what I understand, they want you to make up a separate password for your Skype account.

I tried to set it up with my phone number also and that didn't work. They said they sent a code to my phone number but my phone never rang.

I should have got my sister to set it up when she was here.

Try going through the setup again and tell me what you see at each step.

Oh, I'd check and make sure that you're downloading from the official site.

My sister just called and I told her. She might look through her old notes to see how she did it.
