Did 10.10 break Lync support?

I also did not find any unknown certificates. And removing the ones that Lync installs doesn't help either. :)

Adium is confirmed to work though with Lync (server 2010 I think).

No luck in Public beta2. I have no unknown certificate in the keychain :mad:

If it helps someone - the communicator for mac is working. Ours is an on-premise Lync server 2013.

Microsoft released Office 2011 14.4.4 today - release notes don't mention Lync, but maybe there is a fix - can anyone confirm if it helped?

Communicator 2011

While Lync doesn't receive a fix (I'm not sure if anybody here is able to use Lync on Yosemite), I downloaded Communicator 2011 for Mac and it's working fine...;)

True... there are some limitations, but at least it logs in... and it also synchronizes with my Outlook calendar...

Can't answer voice calls

I have Lync 2011 14.0.9, and all seems to work OK but I cannot answer a Lync voice call. Lync rings, and it immediately answers the call whether I click the green Phone button or not. Problem is, clicking the Phone button does not register as answering the call, and it rings indefinitely making a voice call impossible.

Currently on DP6.

Anyone else, or is this just me?

i wiped & rebuilt my macbook air 2012 to dp6 last week.
i restored my messages data but nothing else.
after re-installing lync 14.0.9 i am now able to sign into lync as well as have im conversations.
however, attempting to view any preferences -at all- crashes lync.
even just clicking on fonts within an existing conversation window.
smilies work but any text options will cause a crash.

its improvement of some sort at least...

To get into preferences, try logging out of Lync first. That works for me anyway.

crash because of localisation interface changes?

I found a potential reason for the crashes: after changing my yosemite language setting from german to english (because of a crash of another app) sync is working again!!! My assumption is that yosemite changed something in the localisation interface...

cheers

I put the public beta on my Macbook yesterday and Lync worked.

Today it wasn't and I found this thread. Weird that it stopped working but then I realised that late last night I switched my language from "English" to "English (UK)". I just swapped it back to "English" and Lync is working again.

Well, apart from the preferences bug.

Lync is mostly working for me.

Whenever I send a txt message to a Lync mobile client Lync crashes. All others seem to work tho.

That also worked for me and allowed me to sign in. But Lync was still very flakey. Could not join meeting and I would sign out and IM's would still come in so still seems to be many issues to be fix with Lync and 10.10

Changing the system language also works for me. My initial language was set to UK. I changed it to US, rebooted and then changed it back to UK. After a final reboot it works now. Preferences still crash the app but at least the presence and IM seem to be working ok for now.
