It was great. But from the exact moment I started it (and for the past 2 days) I get no e-mails coming in on my Mac Mail application ... the only way to see them is via AOL on the web. (I've re-booted and tried everything I know) Any thoughts on this problem? Thanks I recently uploaded Skype to my i-Mac and used it for the first time. It was great.

The application constantly crashes. It could be during the middle of a call, or after a call has ended, or if the connection had been lost, etc. Also, most of the times when my contacts are online, they do not appear to be. The only way I can be for sure is to call them. If I call them and they are online, Skype will realize this and mark them online. It's very annoying though to not know if someone is online at-a-glance. Hopefully they fix all of these issues soon.Mitch I’ve had tons of problems with the latest version of Skype for Mac as well.

Been calling family via skype. They have a video camera and so do I. They can see me but I can't see them. Apparently ichat is taking over and won't allow for skype video to do it's work. What can I do? I don't have ichat on so don't understand why skype won't allow me to see the person I am calling on video. Thank you for your help.

Can you be a bit more specific in regards to points 5 & 7? What things about the Windows client do you miss/want? And what do you mean about the menu bar icon? You want it to stay there when you quit Skype?Cheers, Ryan. Hi Chris!

Pretty much all the big software companies aren't friendly to apple when it comes to software. Why do a lot of computer labs have windows? because its easy? cheap? or its because there is more of them and people known how to use them in general.

There is no contact or real-time chat you can contact them. They only want to communicate thru' email. However, response time is extremely tedious. It will take them a few days to get back to you. It's really agonizing to use skype. I recently bought a dopod c730. Skype software doesn't support it. It shut down skype when I launch the voice or trying to make a call.
