Find and run skype v3.8. Login as usual. Check «auto sign when starting skype» (i.e. save password option). Restart 3.8 again. Now, in you config.xml profile will be «Credentials2» block with your skype signed public key. Now, run skype v5.5 version. It will login automatically, and will not bore about outdated version and will not signout you. If it expires in 30 days, repeat this steps.Источник: skype-open-source.blogspot.com/2014/08/workaround-about-skype5x-your-version.html
As previously communicated, all support for SkypeKit ended on 31 July, 2014. No further updates to the SkypeKit SDK will be available.
In addition, we've made the decision that from 4 August, 2014 we will be permanently retiring the SkypeKit SDK. As a result, any one accessing your SkypeKit-enabled application will be unable to sign into Skype or access any Skype-enabled functionality via your application.
We apologize for any inconvenience or disruption this will cause.
