Repeat this process as many times as you need to. Thanks to Matthew Scharley on Super User for this trick. To sign into a third copy of Skype, replace “Skype2” with “Skype3” and run the command again. Open -na /Applications/Skype.app -args -DataPath /Users/$(whoami)/Library/Application\ Support/Skype2 Launch a Terminal and run the following command: Rather than creating a new user account for Skype, you can run additional copies of Skype on your same user account and point each of them at a different data folder.
You could create a secondary user account for each version of Skype you want to use, but there’s a better, cleaner option that makes each Skype program run under your same user account.
Common methods for doing this recomend you use the “sudo” command to run Skype as the root (administrator) account - don’t do that, it’s a very bad idea for security.

Skype doesn’t offer a built-in way to do this on Mac OS X as it does on Windows. You can keep double-clicking this shortcut to open additional instances of Skype. Give the shortcut a name like “Skype (Second Account)”. "C:\Program Files (x86)\Skype\Phone\Skype.exe" /secondary For example, on a 64-bit version of Windows, it should look like: In the Target box, add /secondary to the end.
Go to your desktop, right-click the Skype shortcut you created, and select Properties.
