Test this, set local ITEMSTORAGE = 1000 to a nonused storage number.

local skill, amount = SKILL_SWORD, 3 --Edit skill name Ex: SKILL_CLUB,1 = that means amount so, it add now 1 sword fighting.
function onUse(cid, item, fromPosition, itemEx, toPosition)
   local ITEMSTORAGE = 1000
   local ITEMSTORAGE_VALUE = getPlayerStorageValue(cid, ITEMSTORAGE)
   if (ITEMSTORAGE_VALUE <= 3) then
     for i = 1, amount do
       doPlayerAddSkillTry(cid, skill, (getPlayerRequiredSkillTries(cid, skill, getPlayerSkillLevel(cid, skill) + 1) - getPlayerSkillTries(cid, skill)), false)
     end
     doSendMagicEffect(getThingPos(cid),math.random(CONST_ME_FIREWORK_YELLOW, CONST_ME_FIREWORK_BLUE))
     doCreatureSay(cid, "SKILL UP!", TALKTYPE_ORANGE_1)
     doRemoveItem(item.uid, 1)
     setPlayerStorageValue(cid, ITEMSTORAGE, ITEMSTORAGE_VALUE+1)
     return true
   else
     return false
   end
end

     setPlayerStorageValue(cid, ITEMSTORAGE, ITEMSTORAGE_VALUE+1)
     return true
   else
     return false
   end
end

with this i can use it 5 times, also could you add a message when reached the 4 times? like you can't use this item more than 4 times per player?

local ITEMSTORAGE = 1000

local amount = 4 -- times it can be used
function onUse(cid, item, fromPosition, itemEx, toPosition)
   if (ITEMSTORAGE_VALUE <= amount-2) then
     for i = 1, amount do
       doPlayerAddSkillTry(cid, skill, (getPlayerRequiredSkillTries(cid, skill, getPlayerSkillLevel(cid, skill) + 1) - getPlayerSkillTries(cid, skill)), false)
