Thank you all SO MUCH! I didn't do a lot - just relaxed and did a bit of work in the yard.

Thanks!

"Yeah, Snidely, my sister also just told me this is what I'm going to have to do--how ridiculous. " Why do you think it's ridiculous? That's a frequent and easy solution to forgotten or otherwise inaccessible logins. I'm not sure why you think it matters. I'd think your end objective is to USE Skype, not to solve the problem in one specific way. Following my suggestion will give you access to Skype in less than 5 minutes. As an alternative, you can also use Google Talk. It has many of the same features as Skype - free user to user audio and video sessions plus free and unlimited US calling. Google Talk allows that free and unlimited calling to US numbers even when you're outside the US, you just need an internet connection to originate the call. Using it requires having a gmail email account. Also something you need to sign up for. There are even more alternatives you may want to consider. Good luck.

georgysmom, You said," ...but I have a MacBook....no left click, no right click..." You need to go into your System Preferences (upper left menu bar, click on the apple, select System Preferences, and then under the Hardware list you should find TRACKPAD to double click.) You will be able to select what actions represent right clicks, left clicks, and probably page back, page forward, and swiping up and down. I have a separate trackpad as I'm using my desktop Mac, but for example, I use a single finger tap as the usual 'left click' (as you probably are already doing), two finger tap for a "right click", two fingers to swipe the screen up and down, and 3 fingers to go back and forward a screen. You may or may not have all of those choices depending on what system your Mac is running, but you should have most of them. If you have a Mac mouse, you'll find that you can make whatever changes you'd like as well in the System Preferences. The system actually works very well and is very flexible if you're right handed or left handed you can make it work for you. Helene
