OS X 10.6.8 and Skype says I need 10.9.
Do I have to upgrade the O/S?
Suggestions?
iMac, Mac OS X (10.6.8)
Skype has changed around the end of November 2017 (worked for me on 29th, not on 30th) - I got the message that I need to upgrade the OS (which won't work for my 32-bit iMac...). Apfelmuseins' answer from July 12th should now read (note the only difference from that is the CFBundleVersion needs to be 8.11.0.4 rather than 7.36.0.507)
try this with skype 6.15 & os 10.6.8:
</array>
<key>CFBundleVersion</key>
<string>6.15.0.335</string>
Replace with:
</array>
<key>CFBundleVersion</key>
<string>8.11.0.4</string>
6. Then go to File and click on Save, or press Command+S
7. Re-open Skype
Then Skype worked for me.
Perfect , SKYPE working again w 10.6.8 .
Just to be mentioned use : "Property List Editor" from Xcode .
Thank you a bunch. Vlad
great, thanks a lot! I needed this for a friend.
Thanks for your share but file sending and call not working!!!!!
amazing! it works!!! You saved my skype, I was so upset! thanks a lot!
I will try the "Skype" workaround that was suggested back in 2016 for OS 10.6.8 and see if it remedies my own Skype problem with OS 10.8.5. I will report back later ... thanks for the suggestion.
I had the same problem, you can use Skype on the web via your web browser as well.
This was so helpful. This works. Saved my life. F******* skype.
Hi, I tried this, but with my Skype version this does not work: I can't change any listing because it says "just read - not licensed"???
Hi Apfelmuseins, it works, but you just end up on the Skype website, where you have to install a plugin, which needs Mac 10.9.!!!?
Any solution for that?
You made my day! A million thanks!!!
It works!
