Symptoms

Business

Consider the following scenario.

  • You join an online meeting by using the Skype for Business Web App or Lync Web App on macOS High Sierra 10.13 (including beta versions).
  • Someone in the online meeting shares their desktop.

In this scenario, you see only a black screen instead of the shared desktop.

This problem occurs when the meeting is hosted in Skype for Business Server 2015 or Lync Server 2013. This problem doesn't occur if the meeting is hosted in Skype for Business Online.

Workaround
