There is a new Skype for Ipad app update available. I think I am going to have to make this a regular thing--posting that specific IOS apps are available for update, since this is not something I can do remotely (as of yet).
It is very important that you keep your device up to date when new releases of various apps become available, just as the case with your computers updates. With some updates they may be to fix a bug but usually to enhance the product. As always if you require more help you can always contact me.
