How to make Skype 2.6.0.151 work in OS X 10.5 Leopard

2007/11/02 05:09

The problem is that Skype does not start when firewall is enabled. Or to be more specific - it only runs once after installing it.

Quick patch to fix the problem, thanks to this forum-post, is:

Reinstall Skype
Open Package Contents of the Skype.app in Finder
In info-panes for Contents/Frameworks, Contents/MacOS and Contents/Resources, check "Locked"
Enjoy your working Skype :)
