Link Lync to Live
Hello All,
I have linked Skype to my live account and I am now able to add Lync users as contacts. Rather than re-adding everyone individually, I'd really like to just link my live account to my lync account and then have those contacts just show up. Is this request
just ahead of its time, or is there a way to do this I'm just not seeing. I use Skype for Mac and we use Communicator that comes with Office 2011.

Not possible unfortunately. Can you possibly export your contacts from Skype/MS account then import in to Outlook? The contacts will then pull though in Lync.

Hi,
You can try to set up the Skype account in Outlook and then move contacts from Lync Contacts to Contacts of your Skype account. On Skype click Contacts button and check Show Outlook Contacts. Restart Skype, Outlook and wait for several times to see if the
Lync contact synchronization successfully on Skype.
Best Regards,
Eason

Hi,
It won't work like you add Facebook account in to Skype and get all FB contacts in Skype. that doesn't work with Lync. you have to add skype users in to Lync buddy list manually.
