This wikiHow teaches you how to join a group Skype call on a Windows or macOS computer.

Steps

  1. 1
    Open Skype on your computer. If you’re using macOS, you’ll find it on the Applications folder and/or in the Launchpad. If you have Windows, you’ll find it in the Windows menu.
    • If you’re using a computer that doesn’t have Skype, open a web browser (such as Chrome, Edge, or Safari), navigate to https://web.skype.com. The remaining steps will all work the same.[1]
    • If you received a message containing an email link to a Skype for Business call, click the link in the message, then follow the on-screen instructions.
  2. 2
    Sign in to your account. If you’re not already signed in to Skype, enter your Skype name, email address, or phone number, then click Sign in. When prompted, enter your password, then click Sign in to complete the process.
