Read Skype's instructions for windows or Mac. (Sadly, for now, only Windows is recommended.) The UI is slightly different, annoyingly.
#HOW TO SET CONFERENCE IN SKYPE FOR BUSINESS ON MACBOOK UPGRADE#
You should upgrade to the latest Skype.Here are some steps to take, in rough order of importance. While you can just set up the meeting room with Skype on a typical laptop, it's worth a bit of extra effort to make things run more smoothly in the meeting room, and to get good audio and video. There are several tools that can do a multi-party video call, including Oovoo, Sightspeed, Vsee and others, but for now I recommend Skype because it's high quality, cheap, encrypted and already ubiquitous.
The reality is the remote people never feel part of the meeting, and no matter how expensive the speakerphone, the audio just doesn't cut it.
If you're going to have a meeting with people in a meeting room and one or more people calling in remotely, I recommend trying to have a remote multi-party video call, or at the very least a high-fidelity audio call, and avoid the traditional use of a phone conference bridge to a speakerphone on the meeting room table.
