I have a (very) non-techie friend who is just starting with Ubuntu from Windows. He wants to continue to use skype. I can easily help with that initially, I have a free skype account myself so I can do support for skype installation.
However, he has a paid skype account, I think so that he can make calls to landlines, including to destinations in spain. He obviously has information held on his windows system, he calls it his 'Account' and at some stage very soon he will want to 'Copy his skype Windows Account across to Ubuntu'. mmm. Can anyone say what the difference is, in terms of what is in Windows, between a paid skype and a free skype? In particular how to migrate across? Am I correct in thinking that the financial total - credit or whatever - is probably held online by Skype? I can guess that on the Windows PC there will be such things as contacts, but I do not know enough about skype to know if contacts is also held online. tia -- alan cocks Ubuntu user #10391 Linux user #360648 -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
