Creating a Skype Name and Password

Each Skype account has a unique Skype Name with a password. If your Skype Name is the same as another Skype user it will not be accepted. Follow these guidelines:

•Characters: You can use uppercase and lowercase characters, numbers, and punctuation marks. You cannot use spaces. You cannot start your Skype Name or password with a number or punctuation mark.

•Length: You can use 6-30 characters for your Skype Name, and 4-20 characters for your password.

•Unique Password: You cannot use your Skype Name as a password.”

Note: After you have created your Skype Name, it is strongly recommended that you register an email address for your Skype Name on the Skype website. This will allow Skype to generate a new password for you in the event that you lose your password. Go to www.skype.com and sign in to your account. Then, follow the provided instructions for registering an email address for your account.

Standby Display

Your phone is in standby mode when it is idle. It shows your Skype status icon, your Skype Name, the handset number, the system time, the signal icon, and the battery icon.
