Hi Christiaan,
I am pretty sure the ‘saving’ trouble is introduced by osx 10.13. I now have a
mix of Apple workstations running osx 10.10.5 and osx 10.13.2
We did not update skim so we are running skim version 1.4.9 on these
workstations.
For testing I use osx 10.10.5 and skim 1.4.33 (107) on Macbook pro
********
( crash upon closing window. Have this only with skim 1.4.33 )

Then file will save.
If
