Telephone calls can be made to recipients on the traditional telephone networks. Calls to other users within the Skype service are free, while calls to landlines and mobile phones are charged via a debit-based user account system. Skype has also become popular for its additional features, including file transfer and video conferencing.

Microsoft and Facebook account integration

Sign up and login is easier than ever. You can now sign in to Skype using your Microsoft or Facebook account – there’s no need to create a new Skype account. This makes it even easier to connect with friends on Skype without having to set up another account.

Chat friends on Messenger

Now you can send messages to Windows Live Messenger, Hotmail and Outlook.com contacts via Skype in one place. If you use a Microsoft account today, merging your accounts is easy – just sign in to Skype with your Microsoft account.

Calling with Messenger friends is coming soon

We are working on polishing a feature that will enable audio and video calls to Windows Live Messenger customers using Skype desktop clients. The feature will be available in the coming weeks.

Open chats in multiple windows

We hear your feedback! With this release, we’ve added support for opening chats in multiple windows.

Retina display support

We’ve also added another feature you requested – Retina display support. Now you can take full advantage of improved usability and higher resolution screens

View a slideshow of other participants in a group conversation when you are the current speaker

When you are the current speaker in a group conversation, you will see a slide show of other participants in the conversation monitor. When you’re the current speaker in a group call and someone else is sharing your screen, you’ll see a slideshow of the other participants in the main call view.

New in-call DTMF numeric keypad

We have introduced a new numeric keypad to generate DTMF tones. When you press the number pad in the call toolbar while in a conversation with a phone number, the call number pad appears on the call screen.

Please update to the latest version of Skype for Mac and give us feedback by visiting our support network or by reporting issues on our public issue tracker.

Infinite chat scrolling

We have introduced a new way to load history. Each time you scroll up, more and more messages will be loaded from the history. Scrolling is motion sensitive, the faster you scroll, the more messages are loaded. To jump back in history. Ctrl + click anywhere (or right-click) in the chat and select “Jump back” and select the period you want to jump back to. We’ve also separated dates from the timestamps and created date sections instead to make it more visible in chat. Skype will index all chat history when you first sign in and use less resources after indexing is complete.

Improved discovery in chat

We’ve redesigned the fun functionality to be part of the chat view, instead of opening in a separate window. You can easily navigate between results and see the total number of matches in the chat. Current match is highlighted in yellow. You can also search for strings using the “Starts with” or “Contains” option. Recent searches are saved so you can reuse them in the future.

Removal of custom chat styles

We’ve removed custom chat styles to ensure consistency across our customers. If you prefer a more compact layout for your chat, go to preferences > messages > “use compact chat style”

Improved sending and receiving contacts

We’ve redesigned the way contacts are sent and received by users. When multiple contacts are sent, the recipient will see an expandable list in the conversation and can either add them all at once or add them one by one. If the received contact is already in the contact list, or is blocked, the recipient will see the relevant status.

Improved file transfer

We’ve improved file transfer so users can re-accept the file when receiving. The file transfer will remain active until the sender cancels it.
