Citrix issue on Mac

[liketom]

just a quicky ,

citrix webinstaller on mac and my pc laptop

i had to delete hkey_local_machine\software\microsoft\mslicensing on the pc to get a connection to work

so where does the same mac file live ?

It doesn't.. because your Mac OS X site doesn't have any MS licensing.

that's what i thought , but i keep getting the same error message on both PC/Mac , pc is fixed due to deleting that file

Posting the error message usually helps.

Which I see you have done now.

Have you hit the Citrix support site?

I actually got that error while trying to run it over safari. I use firefox for my citrix login now.

Ah, I actually knew that one.

FWIW, it's not actually a problem with Mac OS X or Safari. It's lazy coding at Citrix. They don't want to have to support Safari, so they BUILT-IN limitations that check for Safari and (basically) fail it. You may find that if you use the Debug menu in Safari and pretend to be IE or Mozilla, the site works as normal.

I use Citrix all the time to access Outlook and some other work-related apps. I'm using the most recent version of the Citrix client (Universal binary). Haven't had any issues going through Safari, but then again its possible my work's site isn't set up the same way others are.
