I've just installed Skype for N8 and it works fine. I'd like to have it running in the background 24/7 so that I can receive Skype and VOIP calls all the time. The only options I can find all sign me out of Skype completely. Am I missing something? Does anyone know how to make this happen?

I'm not sure what exactly what you want but to have any program run in the background, just open the program you want and then push the home button on your phone. This basically minimizes the program. To access it, just hold down the homescreen button until the list of running programs appears. I hope this helps.

Thanks jlmvc,
Unfortunately the Home button does not display when using Skype. I managed to solve the problem by going to Options>Show Open Applications>Exit. Skype is then running in the background effectively.
Thank you  Smiley

 Smiley The procedure you just mentioned is the exact thing I was telling you to do. If you hold down the physical button on the front of your phone for a few seconds, it's the same as going through options/show open applications. But either way works. I'm glad you found a solution
