![]() My client just stopped working, booted me off the network, and after messing with it for a while, I finally got the message that my Skype version is too old, and that I either get the new crippled client, or I can't Skype at all. ![]() Luckily my HDMI monitor has speakers that don't get any use, except that Skype could make them ring with the "ring all speakers" option. I have several sound devices in my computer, and when my headphones are plugged in, they on their own don't ring loud enough to hear an incoming call. I was using the last pre-MS version of the client, which had the "ring all speakers" option. ![]() If Apple doesn't support OS X 10.5, why should Microsoft? This has absolutely nothing to do with the OS version itself being unsupported, as the post you attempted to discredit referred to. You've asserted that Apple support hardware going back a few years. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer)Īnd each recent version of OS X has been far better than Snow Leopard and free as well. Almost all Macs produced in the last 7 years runs current software - Xserve which is no longer produced is an obvious exception. If you are running something like the 2007 Mac mini (which has support deprecated) then you will have to upgrade to run Mountain Lion or later. Any Mac on the list below (or later) runs Mountain Lion, Mavericks and (soon) Yosemite. So why should Skype's developers care about an ancient version of OS X? Oh, I know, because they are Microsoft, and we love to bash them here! ![]() Apple does not support their own 2 year old OSes, I have to upgrade my Mac to a more often than not crappier OS just to get things like Xcode running again and sometimes I even have to buy a new Mac because the old one is arbitrarily locked out from a software upgrade.
