    If you are talking with someone on Skype or elsewhere, "I am (I'm) with you" usually means "I understand what you are saying." Example: "Did you understand what I explained about the definite and definite articles?" -- "Yes, I'm with you."

    It is also possible for "I'm with you" to mean "I am here" or "I hear you." Example: "John, I can't hear you. Are you there?" -- "Yes. I'm with you." = I'm here. or I hear you.

    It is also possible for "I am with you" to mean "I agree with you" or "I support you." Example: "I am going to demand that the boss give us all a raise. Do you support with what I intend to do?" -- "Yes, I am with you." = Yes, I agree with you. I support you.

    It normally signifies agreement with the speaker.
