Skype crashes on Mountain Lion Developer Preview

[sritcey]

I upgraded my iMac to Mountain Lion Developers Preview and Skype keeps crashing. The audio settings are constantly and showing errors and I can't seem to get it to use my USB headset most of the time. It also typically crashes when making an outgoing call.

I use Skype all day and had to set up another computer just so I can make and receive calls. Very frustrating!

Anybody experiencing any similar issues or have a fix?

I hope they fix this on the next build.

You shouldn't use early developer previews of OS X on your primary computer. At the very least, install it on a second partition so you can reboot to a working Lion/SL when needed.

I experience the same. Skype is just not working on 10.8 as it is. I expect Apple to fix this in future builds. Until then, I just won't use Skype in 10.8.

For me it's the screen share. As soon as you start screen share if crashes the application.

I understand Mountain Lion is not final but Skype needs to know the issues, that's the whole point of the developer preview.
