Plus the instructions for this hint describe it as 'short and sweet'. It appears over the last few months a minimum quota is trying to be met, and is being filled with lots of 'non hints'. I would much prefer quality over quantity on this site.

If you were searching for a Mac way to run X, Y or Z and came across this hint as a 'solution' then, guaranteed, the next thing to occur would surely be your palm meeting your forehead.Ī more progressive version of this hint, might be to use one of the free/paid software as a service or VM hosting services out there, that might have solved this particular hurdle the author faced, and certainly other situations where Mac versions of the same app are not available. If the editor's idea behind this is to get it into the big google index, then think about it. I agree, add this one to the ever mounting pile of non-hints.Īs previously commented, it is a little too obvious - if a windows program has no equivalent for the mac, then the obvious step to get the functionality for that app running on your mac, is to run it in a Virtual Machine. I also partnered with a co-worker and had him log into the meeting and he could in fact see everything I was sharing or showing. I did manage to test my sharing of IE and a word document successfully. (One side note, Microsoft offers some Mac users the ability to click on the link in Live Meeting invitation and to join as a participant, but not to host.) This configuration of running inside the virtual machine offers the user the ability to host and participate as the Live Meeting service see's the user joining from a Windows Machine not a Virtual one and not a Mac.

I was simply a matter of starting with the 'meet now' feature and hosting a instant meeting. Once inside the meeting center with the application installed.

Next step was to log into my Conferencing hub/Live Meeting management microsite and install the Microsoft Live Meeting application. (I actually prefer Java 6 version 18-20 as these are all tested and proven to work with most of the web conferencing options out there.) That I had the most current version of Flash Player installed in my new Virtual Machine as well as the most current version of Java. I also ran through the series of updates for Windows and made sure I met three key requirements. Most web conferencing software does not play nicely with 64bit systems, so run 32bit whenever possible. Once installed I then loaded Windows 7 Ultimate 32bit. I chose Parallels for it's ease of use and well quite frankly I like the simplicity of it vs. The first thing was first I needed to install the virtualization software that I would be installing Windows on. Here is a walk through of what I did to be able to host/login to my meeting and use the host features while still having access to my Mac as well.

After getting Windows 7 installed and running on my trial version I decided to try Hosting from my Own Live Meeting account was pleasantly surprised when I noticed that I could host my meetings virtually from my MacBook.

The advent of a very nice piece of software that came my way was Parallels 6.0.1. Our answer for this has been short and sweet.

One of the most frequent Mac OSX related issues with callers is 'why cant I host/or have trouble joining a Microsoft Office Live Meeting?' I work for a very Large Teleconferencing firm that shall remain nameless, none the less I receive a lot of calls in my line of work at the technical support level.
