Microsoft Skype for Business – Joining a Skype for Business Meeting

Most of the time, joining a Skype for Business meeting is as simple as clicking the meeting link. And you can join from anywhere, such as an airport, a coffee shop, your hotel, or your mobile device when you’re on the road.

Joining a Skype for Business meeting on your Windows PC:

In your meeting request, click Join Skype Meeting, or click Join Online in your meeting reminder pop-op window.

Tips: The Meetings view lets you quickly check your upcoming meetings for the day, without having to go to your calendar. You can even join a Skype Meeting right from the Meetings tab, if the meeting was set up by an organizer inside your company.

In the Skype for Business main window, click the Meetings tab, and then right click a Skype meeting to join.

When joining a Skype Meeting, you may be prompted to choose your audio/video settings.

o   Make sure you unmute your mic after joining the Skype Meeting when you want to speak. People in the meeting can only hear you when your microphone is unmuted.

o   To unmute your mic, find the mic button, and click it. If you need to switch to a different audio device, click the Call Controls button, then click Devices.

The Switch Devices box shows your available audio devices, with the current one selected. Choose a different one if you'd like.
