Erm, it's you that needs fixing!! :happy:
Go to the top of this forum. Select Get Skype and then Mac (third down on the left) and click on download Skype. Voilà, Mac version

Re: mac download broken

No, it's the link that is broken.  Try it before you get snippy.

 

I've tried the links at the top of the screen and the download at the bottom of the screen. It says download for Mac, but it downloads the .exe version for windows. Is there somewhere else that I can go to download the correct .dmg file, or just not bother with Skype on my mac?

Sorry but the link isn't broken. You must be clicking on the wrong one. Try this one, I've just done it.

Thank you! That link did work. Not sure why the other one didn't.

I had exactly the same trouble, only solved by clicking on the download link further down this post. Glad it's solved but very frustrating nonetheless!

Re: mac download broken

just to reiterate, this is not fixed on your site.

If you go to http://www.skype.com/intl/en/get-skype/on-your-computer/macosx/

Click Download Skype, it downloads the .exe version.

No, if you go to that link it first asks you to sign in and then it downloads the Mac version. I've just done it.

 

However, if you'd have clicked on the complete link I gave you

http://www.skype.com/intl/en/get-skype/on-your-computer/macosx/downloading/

It will start downloading, again the Mac version, automatically. Just done that too.
