Not able to send photos in Skype using Photos app
Re-opening an ignored thread in case someone knows of a fix.
Worked a treat with iPhoto. Why do options disappear when "progress" is apparently the name of the game?!
iMac, Mac OS X (10.7.4), 12 Gig RAM, 3.1ghw i5
Why do options disappear? Because Apple updates software and third parties also have to update theirs to stay compatible - when Skype updates their client it will work
In the mean time you either have to use the media browser or export form Photos and use the exported photo

The media browser is in the open or select file window from a browser or application like this one from Safari when adding a photo to a post:
It's not the type of file you can drag into Skype but where the file is located. In the new Photos library Skype has to be updated to work with it or use the Media route as shown above.
Or just drag from the library to the Desktop, add to Skype from there and delete when done.
While you're in Safari go to the File ➙ Open File menu option:
In the window that comes up scroll down the sidebar till you get to the Media section:
I'll be the same in any window of any app to add files.
Hmmm. That certainly puts a damper in this investigation.
You may have to export the photos to the Desktop and add them from there.
Thanks for reply. So this isn't a Photos 'problem' or issue, but a Skype one? I didn't think so because I can drag any other file type into Skype just like I always have. I changed from iPhoto to Photos, and it stopped working, yet Skype still accepts all over files. Therefore it seemed more likely to be Photos causing the issue. Are you saying for certain that this is not the case?
What is the "media browser"?
Sorry, still don't understand what the media browser is. My Skype is fully up to date, hopefully they bring out a new update soon.
Thanks for trying to help
Sorry, i don't see media in my side bar
