I have used Skype on my Mac for years. However when I turned my machine off and on last week a new version of Skype was automatically installed / updated on my Mac. It had a complete different interface that does not show my favourites and appears to have a different interface that completely changed the way I use Skype. To be truthful I hate it.
If the installer asks for permission to install a helper tool, enter the administrator name and password that you use to log in to your Mac, then click Add Helper. Please allow installation to complete without putting your Mac to sleep or closing its lid. My app contains Privileged Helper tool and when I build locally everything is work. But when I'm doing this: create a deployment file via Product - Archive. Install this app. My app can not open, moreover it closed automatically I assume 'cause I can not find an offer window where I should to enter a password for accessing permission for. A powerful mac os x release, high sierra 10.13.6 iso affords a huge range of security and different enhancements that enhance the user revel in in addition to provides higher performance. Aimed to simplify path management, pathhelper, the new tool introduced in Leopard that help manage the PATH environment variable, has probably not been as welcome as it should have been, particularly because it is not well documented. We try to shed some light on this obscure tool. Pathhelper is located in /usr/libexec. In essence, High Sierra took what was good with Sierra and developed it into a more comprehensive software. High Sierra emphasizes the already-existing benefits of MacOS previous system, Sierra. There are few bells and whistles, but the changes are noticeable and positive. The Apple file system is the most significant feature it brought.
Mac create a disk image. Not only that, every few minutes I have a pop-up appears asking me to install a helper tool. I enter my password to install the helper tool. and guess what - a few minutes later the pop-up appears again. I enter my password again wondering if 'I' made a mistake to find only minutes later the pop-up appears again.
This got me suspicious wondering if I had malware on my computer. So I use ESET to do a malware search and clean on my Mac but it finds nothing. I do a Google search for the Helper Tool message that comes up on my Mac and find a few threads saying this problem has occurred connected to a Microsoft update that (according to several people) Microsoft will not acknowledge as an error in the new update. I can't validate this as being true - as I personally have not been in touch with MS.
But this annoying helper pop-up is getting so bad I want to remove Skype altogether. (Note my Mac's are using High Sierra 10.13.5)
Base app store.
So this morning - thinking logically (instead of emotionally) - I thought - 'if many people are reporting this as an error from the new MS update - then what would happen if I installed the older version of Skype?'
SO I did a search for 'old skype versions mac' - and found: ********
I downloaded version 7.58.501 - installed it. and 'voila' I have the skype interface I am used to and prefer and the 'helper pop-ups' have stopped altogether.
I am no expert but it does appear that the helper pop-ups are 100% related to the new update 8.21.0.7 which is 90mb as a download compared to the previous traditional skype version that has always been between 42mb to 45mb as a download. I am guessing MS has included another 45mb of coding in the new version (doubling it's size) and must have a lot of extra less that useful stuff bundled in the background that is sadly creating problems. Turn off mac keyboard shortcuts.
If you are suffering from the endless 'helper pop-ups' - until MS sort the problems out - I'd suggest re-installing the previous version 7.58.501
Rightfont 4 11. I am now back to my happy days in using Skype.
