"Skype today announced it has temporarily pulled the Skype Click to Call plugin for Safari. The company said it is &amp;quot;no longer compatible with the Safari (Mac) browser&amp;quot; due to &amp;quot;changes in the new Mac OS X Mavericks&amp;quot; but it wouldn't elaborate what exactly the problem was.\r\n\r\nIf you already have the plugin installed, you can continue using it as long as you haven't yet upgraded to OS X Mavericks. If you do upgrade, Skype warns users that they &amp;quot;may experience compatibility issues.&amp;quot;\r\n\r\nTo avoid potential problems, Skype is recommending that you disable Skype Click to Call in your browser settings by following these steps before upgrading your operating system:\r\n\r\nGo to Preferences in Safari.\r\nClick Extensions on the top rail.\r\nUncheck the &amp;quot;Enable Skype Click to Call&amp;quot; box.\r\n\r\n\r\nThe good news is that Skype doesn't plan to axe the plugin completely. The Microsoft-owned company says it is &amp;quot;working on a solution&amp;quot; to make Click to Call available on Safari again, but it wouldn't offer a timeframe for a resolution.\r\n\r\nBecause OS X Mavericks adoption is rising quickly, Skype probably decided it is best to pull the plugin before more users run into problems. It's a smart move, assuming a working version is released again in a timely fashion.\r\n\r\nWe're still not clear on what exactly is causing problems for the plugin, and why Skype didn't notice issues when it ran tests on OS X Mavericks. We have contacted Skype for more information and will update this post if we hear back. In the meantime, we'd recommend trying out Chrome on OS X Mavericks to see whether the plugin works.\r\n\r\nSee also - Skype Click to Call gets Chrome, Firefox, and Windows 8 support, plus free number highlighting and Skype is considering automatically removing typing sounds from calls\r\n\r\nTop Image Credit: Justin Sullivan/Getty Images"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
