1. Microsoft Lync For Mac 2011 Download

They said they were working on this but could not tell me when something would be released. They indicated it might be a separate client. This feels like a bait and switch on customers who were promised this service, not communicated that it would not work, and not being given an ETA on availability. How the author of this blog was able to connect and states he knows others who are is confusing at best. I'd like to understand if this is some kind of pre-release software or if indeed its on prem Lync that is being used. I have a purchased copy of Office 2011 for the Mac, and the Office365 E3 plan. Office365 advertises Lync as one of the benefits it offers.

I was able to resolve this issue in two steps. • I imported the root certificate from my corporate Lync Server to my MacBook Pro and configured it as Always Trust(ed) for all options • I generated a kerberos ticket on my MacBook Pro using the terminal command kinit The level of trust on the root cert maybe overkill, but it works. I have to regenerate the kerberos ticket periodically otherwise I am not able to sign-in to Lync, but I resolved this with an Automator app that runs the kinit command when I login to my MBP. Hope this helps someone down the line.

Wrote it all down already. Below I will describe the steps I took to get it working: • Lookup a “unknown” certificate in your Keychain and delete it.

Mac users have already been enjoying the benefits of working on Exchange Online and collaborating on documents and sites on SharePoint Online. Now, Mac users can embrace the full capabilities of Office 365 with Microsoft’s solution for unified corporate communication–Lync Online. Here are some of the noteworthy features of Lync Online: • Connect with others through instant messaging (IM), video calls and online meetings.

But by hooking Communicator into OCS/Lync, and the services those servers provide, Communicator becomes a useful addition to Macs in a Microsoft-based corporate environment. Of course, if your environment is not based around Active Directory, Exchange, and OCS/Lync, Communicator will do you no good. If you’ve the right environment, Communicator is useful across a far broader range of needs than Messenger.

One quick gotcha though – it doesn’t support switching audio devices when loaded. You actually need to exit the program, change your audio device in the Mac control panel, then load Lync for Mac again.

Navigate down to Mike Webber's comment.

Close Keychain Access. Restart Lync for Mac.

I do know though, that if you enable client logging you can find the server your machine connects to and navigate to that server via a webbrowser. From there, you should be able to view the certificate chain, which should let you establish a trust. Hope this helps, Jack.

If the certificates for Lync is corrupted, please delete it. To do this, follow these steps: a. Open the Keychain Access certificate management utility.

The reason the certificate was invalid was this particular Mac was not apart of the domain and therefore the root CA’s certificate was not trusted. Simply importing the root certificate into the keychain logged the user right in. ↓ • Post author Hi Pablo, Your systems administrator should be able to provide the root certificate to you. Unfortunately, I don’t have any step by step documentation on how to find the lync server your client connects to, where you could obtain the certificate.

• Unfortunately I still couldn’t login. The weird idea, as mentioned in Tom Laciano’s post, to use a wrong user id (I used a “ ” in front of my user name) finally made it work. Of course it didn’t work with this wrong user name, it generated a login error message again. But once I entered the right username afterwards it worked.

The problem is, unless you have business contacts, co-workers, or friends who use Messenger and nothing else, there’s not much reason to use or even install it. Compared to iChat—the standard for instant-messaging on the Mac—Messenger's only advantage is that it lets you talk to other Messenger users.

There is no reason it should be doing that on a cloud based service. Again, Microsoft should have thought about a more open beta like is typical rather than releasing something and creating confusion or forcing us to call support. BTW: some are saying that 365 is not ready for Lync 2011 yet. Again, why would there be a client release if this were the case, and it sure seems to be working for you. I called 365 support today on this. I was told the official word is Lync 2011 for Mac does NOT work with 365. They are aware that web sites and product documentations state that it does, but it does not.

Microsoft Communicator for Mac 2011 and Microsoft Lync for Mac are two instant messaging (IM) clients that are designed to be used with the Apple operating system in a Communications Server or Lync Server 2010 unified communications environment. This combination of technologies necessitates that the user understands the preliminary steps that are required to get Mac-oriented IM clients connected to the Windows unified communications environment. This article provides some handy troubleshooting steps that may be required to test Microsoft Lync for Mac connectivity to the Microsoft Lync Server 2010 pool servers, and provides information for collecting the logs that are required for troubleshooting. Author: Publication date: November 2011 Product version: Microsoft Lync for Mac version 14.0.1 The purpose of this article is to explain how to troubleshoot Microsoft Lync for Mac connectivity to Microsoft Lync Server 2010 or pool servers, and collect the required logs for troubleshooting. It is intended for people who’ve had some exposure to the Mac operating system. This information is distributed in various formats, such as PDF and HTML, across various sites (blogs, discussion forum, and so on) and documents that have been consolidated to provide effective troubleshooting. The versions of the Mac operating system that will be discussed in this article are: • Mac OS X Snow Leopard ( version 10.6) • Mac OS X Lion (version 10.7) The steps that are used to troubleshoot Mac OS X Lion and Mac OS X Snow Leopard are similar.

Open the General pane of Security & Privacy preferences, choose the unlock icon, and then choose Anywhere to allow the Lync Installer to run. • Choose the Lync Installer button to start the installer. • Follow the prompts in the Lync for Mac Installer until it's finished, and then choose Close at the end.

In my testing, getting two-way video to work was spotty. Sometimes it worked, sometimes not, but there was no way to see what was going on. This usually led to accidental one-way chats. Unlike iChat, which has an extensive AppleScript dictionary that not only allows you to customize program behavior, but automate message replies, sends, and file transfers, Messenger has just enough AppleScript support to let you start and quit the application.

I like what you have said, but another thing that is missing is the ability to control Audio Devices easily. In fact, I cannot get my Plantronix 420 Speakerphone (Lync Approved) to work. If I change system preferences to use the Plantronix for all input and output sounds, it still tries to use internal mike and speakers for the call.

The most common problem that I see with Mac's is with certficates, i.e customer has chosen to use internal CA to provide their ADFS certificate and not installed the root CA certificate chain onto the Mac the other really common problem is where the UPN does not match the SMTP name, this causes a huge amount of end user confusion, remember that if you are using ADFS you need to login with your UPN not your SMTP name (They are not necessarily the same!). As a test I often try to use a managed account to bypass the ADFS infrastructure, i.e use one of your @.onmicrosoft.com acccounts to test Lync before trying a federated account. If you are really struggling then call support – thats what they are there for 🙂. We don't have ADFS running, so our users are created straight in 365. Still doesn't work, and we're not alone by the sound of it.

Since OCS/Lync can act as a gateway to other IM services, OCS/Lync allows Communicator users to easily communicate with people using Windows Live Chat, AOL, Yahoo, and Jabber, (which adds in Google and Facebook.) Thanks to OCS/Lync, a company can also federate their services with those of another company running OCS/Lync, making for easier contact list sharing, A/V conferencing, what have you. It’s not that Communicator is that much better than Messenger.
