Following the ruffled feathers and wailing and gnashing of teeth over the news that Skype support for versions of OS X below 10.6 are, Microsoft's Skype team has said a new update is coming that'll let Leopard users continue to participate in their online text, voice and video chats. Currently, Mac owners running Leopard can't login to their Skype account thanks to compatibility changes that were made earlier this week. Skype promises happy faces for OS X Leopard users with compatibility update In a note on the Skype forums, the development team, Those of you that have been using older versions of Skype for Mac until now have recently seen a prompt to upgrade Skype when trying to sign in. There was some confusion on which Skype version is supported on which OS X version. TLDR: Skype will continue to be available on OS X 10.5 - 10.8 and there is no need to upgrade to Mavericks. Microsoft announced earlier this year that Skype support for older versions of Mac OS X would be coming to an end, and that started happening this week. Mac owners running OS X Leopard found they couldn't login to their accounts and were told to upgrade their Skype app.
Unfortunately, the current version requires OS X Mavericks, which left Leopard-running Skype users in the lurch. Mac owners running OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard), OS X 10.7 (Lion), or OS X 10.8 (Mountain Lion) can download and use Skype 6.15 from the set up just for Mac users.

OS X Mavericks users can go to the standard Skype to get the most recent version. OS X 10.5 (Leopard) users will have to wait just a bit before they can get back in on the Skype action. The Skype team said, 'We have a Skype version for Mac OS X 10.5 users which will soon be available for download.' There isn't any word yet on just how long Leopard users will have to wait, but at least now we know they will be able to use Skype again at some point.
About Skype for Mac Skype is a little program for making free calls over the internet to anyone else who also has Skype. It's free and easy to download and use, and works with most computers. Now it also supports video conferencing over the net. Skype is a proprietary peer-to-peer Internet telephony (VoIP) network, founded by Niklas Zennstrom and Janus Friis, the creators of KaZaA and competing against established open VoIP protocols like SIP, IAX, or H.323. The Skype Group is headquartered in Luxembourg with offices also in London and Tallinn. The system has a reputation for working across different types of network connections (including firewalls and NAT) because voice packets are routed by the combined users of the free desktop software application. Skype users can speak to other Skype users for free.
Skype also has paid services allowing users to call traditional telephone numbers (SkypeOut), receive calls from traditional phones (SkypeIn), and receive voicemail messages.
