Working on a Mac in Office 365 just got better. As we have written before, Office for Mac 2011 and 2008 work great with email in Exchange Online and documents in SharePoint Online. As of today, we are making available Lync for Mac 2011 to all Office 365 users who are licensed to use Lync Online.

 

Lync for Mac 2011 enables Mac users to see their colleagues’ online presence while working in Outlook or collaborating on Office documents. It enables them to quickly send an instant message, start a video chat, or schedule an Online Meeting right from within Outlook for Mac 2011.

 

Mac users can download Lync for Mac 2011 by simply clicking Install Lync on the Office 365 home page. They can also find additional instructions for setting up Office for Mac to work with Office 365 on the Downloads page.

  • this isn't working how do we get support for this?

  • we keep getting error..no "kerbos ticket is detected"

  • community.office365.com/.../mac-users-download

  • That link doesn't appear to work - is there a download available?

    If you work with Macs or have customers with Mac contacts - you will also very much appreciate these PowerShell commands to rid yourself of WINMAIL.DAT issues.  Was just about to share this with the community and saw the Lync post.  Folks who are chasing after Lync on Mac also fight with WINMAIL.DAT issues.

  • I have downloaded Lync for Mac, but it doesn't work. It keeps telling me that the service is not avaliable???

    But the strange thing is, if I fire up an VM with Windows 7 and from there use Lync, then I can connect without any problems,

  • For users having problems logging into Lync Online with Lync for Mac 2011, there are a few steps that users must do to successfully login. These steps are outlined in the article below and for further support, please visit the Office 365 Community forums or contact Technical Support.

    To address a few of the specific issues in the comments, make sure that Kerberos is not checked, and use manual configuration with internal and external servers pointing to sipdir.online.lync.com:443.

    Thank you for your patience and feedback,
