I went to fire up Skype on my Macbook just now and got told i couldn't log in because my version of Skype was ''too old'' so I grumbled and went to download the new Skype ''for Mac'' and downloaded it and get the exact same message.

Anyone understand what's going on and what I'm doing wrong?

* Do we actually need to download Internet Explorer just to download Skype these days, or is that something else?

What version of osx are you running? Check that it's up to date... the latest version of Skype (6.6 i think) requires OSX LION or newer.

To make sure it isn't your settings, log out and log back in as 'guest' and try it (you can make a guest account via preferences>users). If it works when logged in as 'guest', it's not a Skype issue... take it to the Apple reseller to go over your settings if you're unsure.

If changing login doesn't help, then it's likely a bug they can sort quickly at most Apple resellers - in the meantime, stick with an older version Smile
