2017-8-2 Unable to view Screen Share Unable to view a user's screen sharing. Only Mac app seems to be the issue. It happens in all calls where someone tries to share a screen. I am the only Mac client who cannot see it. I've tried multiple times to view a presentation and nothing works. Is this macOS centric or just a flawed App?

-->Outlook on the web (Outlook Web App) in Office 365 offers a basic Skype for Business web client from the navigation bar. This basic client is available for Online users whose admin hasn't configured a vanity URL for their Office 365 organization. As long as the user's account is online and doesn't have a vanity URL, they will still see the experience even if their organization has some user accounts that are homed on-premises. Users who have user accounts on-premises (whether they have a vanity URL or not) or are managed by Microsoft will see the Lync experience in the Outlook web app.
The following table summarizes the different setups that you may have and the web client that is used.
