[QUOTE="dtravis7, post: 1298802, member: 8287"] The Skype app and most apps you download are DMG's (Disk Images). Like an ISO. You click and it mounts, but it's not installed. You drag the application icon out of the DMG and drop it into the Applications folder. Then you unmount the Skype.DMG and you can store it for later install or delete it. You then run the Skype in the Applications folder. You can drag a copy to the Dock for easy Launching later. You are clicking on the DMG each time and it's mounting. A lot of apps for OSX come in DMGs and install is simply dragging the apps icon from the DMG to Applications. Very easy once you do it a time or two. [/QUOTE]
