    Default Mac OS 10.2 and Skype

    Hello,

    I have an iBook G3 500MHz with Mac OS 10.2. I know that this computer isn't good enough to run the latest Skype, it doesn't even have the required OS installed. I was just wondering what older version of Skype, if any, will run on Mac OS 10.2.

    Thanks.

    Below is a quote from Skype

    We have decided to build Skype first for 10.3, it might be that if/when we have it working all fine, we will see about a possibility to support lower version of Mac OS X as well.
    They suggest the following .... download ichat av
    • Voice chat with other people using iChat and AOL Instant Messenger.
      Video chat with other people using iChat and AOL Instant Messenger.
      Send SMS messages within the United States
      (Create a new chat - Enter the number i.e. +1 whatever)
      Send files to other iChat clients and AOL Instant Messenger Client.

    Alright. I just wanted Skype because I paid for the unlimited US/Canada calling and it would be useful on a laptop.

    Thanks for your response.

    Cross your fingers and try the following versions from newer to the older version in order..... One of these has to work with your OS.

    Skype 1.5.0.80 (22 MB)
    Skype 1.5.0.51 Beta (22 MB)
    Skype 1.5.0.48 Beta (22 MB)
    Skype 1.4.0.49 (16 MB)
    Skype 1.4.0.49 (16 MB)
    Skype 1.4.0.35 (10 MB)
    Skype 1.4.0.35 (10 MB)
    Skype 1.4.0.33 Beta (9 MB)
    Skype 1.4.0.33 (9 MB)
    Skype 1.4.0.27 Beta (7 MB)
    Skype 1.4.0.27 (7 MB)
    Skype 1.3.0.8 (7 MB)
    Skype 1.3.0.8 (7 MB)

    If this doesn't work go to http://www.oldapps.com/Skype_Mac_OS_X.htm and try even older versions. I know for sure that one of those older versions has to work.
