Joining a Meeting Online
- Butte County employs the Skype system for conferences hosted by the county. There are two methods for joining a Conference hosted by Butte County. The preferred method is to join the conference online. The equipment needed would be a computer with internet access and a working headset and microphone. Open the email invitation for the conference and look for the Join Skype Meeting option.
- If your organization uses Lync/Skype the conference will open in your local client. Otherwise a new web page will open prompting you to join the conference.
- Type your name in the empty field and click to join the meeting. If you have not attended a Lync/Skype conference before there will be a checkbox to install the Skype Web App plug-in. Microsoft recommends installing the Skype Web App plug-in for the best experience. If you have questions regarding installing the plug-in please talk to your Computer Support team.
Joining by Phone
Call the number listed on the email invitation and follow the prompts. When asked for conference id reference your email invitation.
