No need to be alarmed. Apple has announced that Mac OS X 10.10 is available. But if you are running the latest Horizon Client for Mac, version 3.1, you do not need to change anything. The current client works beautifully with Yosemite and looks beautiful doing it.

Workspace ONE Policy Analyzer for Windows aids in the management of profiles and baselines for Windows 10 devices. Policy Analyzer uses the Workspace ONE UEM API to review the status of profiles and baselines assigned to a specified Windows 10 device.
VDI requires a modern laptop, PC, or tablet.In general most laptops that are less than 4 years old will run the VDI client without an issue. More detailed laptop requirements can be found in our student guide.
After installing the View client, you may connect to the server by entering view.eiu.edu as the server address. Sign in with your EIU NetID and password to establish the connection to virtual desktops to which you have been granted access.
A: Virtual Desktop separates the physical machine from the PC desktop environment using a client/server model of computing. It allows ITS to deliver desktops on demand to users anywhere and to any device. The desktop is delivered in real time to the user's PC or tablet device.
A: Mac users can download and install the Horizon View Client or use Safari 6 or later to connect to a virtual system. Click here for more information about using a Mac to connect to the bingview virtual desktops.
Something I get asked regularly is, "How Can I Run Multiple VMware Horizon View Clients At Once?", so I thought I'd just put a quick post out in the hope that in the future people will come across this post before having to ask. Quite often users would like to have multiple View sessions open at once on the screen or across screens. By default the Horizon View client only allows you to see a single View session at any one time. You can swap between multiple sessions, but you will still only be able to see a single session at any one time. This is how you can run multiple VMware Horizon View clients at once.
Installing Horizon Client From the Command Line at VMware Docs has instructions on how to install the Horizon Client silently. Common methods for installing the client silently include: SCCM and Active Directory Group Policy Computer Startup Script.
When you connect to a Horizon Connection Server, and if the certificate is not trusted or valid, then the user is prompted to accept the certificate. You can disable this prompt for any client machine that can be controlled using group policy.
Scanner Redirection Preferences, available by clicking Preferences from the tool-tray icon, allows further configuration of the scanning process, for example, adjusting the default compression applied to the scanning. This can greatly reduce the bandwidth needed to transmit the image (the compression is applied on the client side before the image is transmitted to the guest), but, of course, the more an image is compressed, the lower the image quality. In addition, in the Scanner Redirection Preferences, options are available to adjust the default image capture device (for example, automatic mode, last-used, or an absolute specified device).
I have devices with the Horizon Client v5.0.0.5596 (auto upgrade is off) and we are going to install 2012 8.1.0.15949 using SCCM. Does the new client upgrade the existing client on the Windows PC or should I remove the previous version prior to installing the new client version?
I have tried to setup the settings under the client options, shared more than one drive, but unfortunately when the user login no drives are visible, only the mapped drives appear. I usually share Overdrive folder, we have our folders that are important, nothing on the GPOs has changed, only the master image.Any suggestions what should I do to fix this issue?
Supporting a small environment that is still on 5.2. After updating some clients to 4.10 they get a disconnection right after clicking on the desktop icon. Has anyone ran into this? Is this due to TLS 1.0 being disabled?
Quick query re: Horizon 7 and published applications. From testing, it seems that if you try and open a file located on a UNC path (i.e.a network redirected folder), and select Open With to launch a published application, the Horizon View client opens the application, but unsuccessfully tries to pass the file through as a \\tsclient hosted file. This of course fails, but suggests that in order to open any UNC hosted files, the user must do this within the published application, rather than leveraging a simple double click. Are you aware of this limitation? Mapping the UNC path as a fixed drive letter is a workaround but surely this is more of a known and widespread issue?
According to -62-view/index.jsp#com.vmware.horizon-view.desktops.doc/GUID-25820640-60C2-4B7D-AE3F-F023E32B3DAE.html, you can configure the RDP GPO setting to disable client drives. Or you can simply not select the feature when installing the View Agent.
We have a user who may need to log in to her view image from home. She has a macbook air. I've installed the VMware horizon client for mac, but there is no option anywhere to change the protocol from PCoIP to RDP. I tried reading the documentation for VMware but doesn't really explain how to get RDP working on mac.
update: We've since concluded to simply forgo giving this user remote access. Getting VMware to use RDP on mac is either impossible or too difficult to be worth it. PCoIP is unfortunately not an option due to some complexity that won't be resolved any time soon. Pointing the chrome browser to our VMview address will bring up the view images (after logging in), but it still complains about the display protocol when trying to open an image.
Assuming the virtual has windows as a guest-operating system and you just want said user to use remote desktop to get on to it like any other Windows operating system the answer for Mac OS X is to get the Microsoft Remote Desktop client in the app store and use that.
Here's my issue. We have VDI which yes users connect via PCoIP/Blast just fine. But we also have Horizon agents on physical desktops so that users can connect to these using the same Horizon View Client. The only protocol VMware supports for this setup is RDP, which in turn using the Windows Horizon client supports but the MAC Horizon client does not. Wondering is anyone else ran into this issue and possibly have a solution. From searching around on the google, I have not found anything.
F5 has several client software packages that facilitate secure remote connectivity for different device platforms. Because of differences in platforms, the capabilities of each client are also different. Refer to the K23653432 article for the list of available features in the F5 Remote Access clients.
See -us/help/13853/windows-lifecycle-fact-sheet for more details. For specific information about which builds Microsoft supports as part of its servicing branches, see -us/itpro/windows/manage/waas-overview#servicing-branches.
BIG-IP APM supports two Linux clients, a CLI and Network Access client components for browser-based access. On the CLI for Linux, APM supports logon with user name and password only and does not support any endpoint security features. On the client component for Linux, APM supports all of the primary Network Access features, except for Drive Mappings and some endpoint security features.
Sometimes you need access to CC resources such as specialized academic programs or network drives when you aren't physically on campus. The best way to access these services from off campus is to install and use the VMware Horizon client.
This configuration allows use of passcodes to authenticate to VMware View, as well as Duo's push and phone call authentication and SMS. Connectivity Requirements This application communicates with Duo's service on TCP port 443. Firewall configurations that restrict outbound access to Duo's service with rules using destination IP addresses or IP address ranges aren't recommended, since these may change over time to maintain our service's high availability. If your organization requires IP-based rules, please review this Duo KB article.
Add an [ad_client] section if you'd like to use an Active Directory domain controller (DC) or LDAP-based directory server to perform primary authentication. This section accepts the following options:
When creating the RADIUS secret to share between the Authentication Proxy and VMWare View, consider avoiding the special characters &, , and " as the HTML5 Horizon View admin client may not encode these correctly.
TroubleshootingNeed some help? Review troubleshooting tips for the Authentication Proxy and try the connectivity tool included with Duo Authentication Proxy 2.9.0 and later to discover and troubleshoot general connectivity issues.
This blogpost gives an overview of the options you have on Mac OSX to interact with a Vmware Esx, Vsphere server. I feel that Vmware threats Mac OSX users as a second thought, which is kind of strange. The options that we will explore are:
Suppose you have installed a new Vmware Vsphere/Esx server, the screen will greet you with a URL that you can use to connect to the server. That URL will redirect you to a webpage that gives you two client options:
Copying and pasting text to and from an x86 The most common CPU architecture. x86 CPUs support Windows and Linux VMs in Skytap. VM in the Secure Remote Access (SRA) browser client is possible, but there are limitations. There are two ways to copy and paste text between your local computer and the VM:
The SRA browser client toolbar contains a VM Clipboard tool that displays the contents of the VM keyboard. This tool provides a staging area for copying text between the VM and your local computer. It can hold up to 32KB of plain text.
2. To enable and configure MAC address Filtering in DHCP Server 2012 R2, on New Filter console, enter the MAC address of the client that will not receive IP address from the DHCP server. Click on Add to add the MAC address in the Deny list. Here, for this practical, the MAC address of our client is 00-0C-29-EB-1C-5E. Click on Close to close the console. 2ff7e9595c
