Q: Skype not working with Parental Controls?
Hello,
We recently upgraded our computer, and downloaded Skype. It worked fine the first time i tried to run it, but now, every time i try to run it, it gives me a "website not allowed by parental controls" prompt. i tried adding the website, but it still doesn't work. tried reinstalling Skype, but the same thing keeps happening. Any suggestions?
iMac, OS X Yosemite (10.10.5)

Ah... Skype !
The truth is, the app and technology around Skype has changed a bit since Microsoft took over, and it's not for the best unfortunately.
To answer your question, normally (at least last time I did it) Skype requests access to 7 different websites, and as long as you click "Always allow this website", enter your password, etc 7 times, it should be working normally...
