Hi there, thank you for this. Not sure if you have come across this issue. I thought this update of Lync 2011 would fix it but does not seem to do this.
When sharing your desktop from a MAC (with retina display.) the remote attendees get a really really slow refresh rate.
Any suggestions on how to resolve this would be great. - Anonymous

Rich, I just upgraded to Lync 14.0.9, after performing the complete Lync "uninstall" procedure from the Microsoft KB, but I still get the "spinning ball of death" whenever I disconnect (red icon) from a phone call. The spinning ball locks up Lync for about a minute. This bug seems to have been around since at least Lync 14.0.5. Do you know when it will be fixed? - Anonymous

Does this version work with MacOS Yosemite? The previous one did not, it connects, disconnects, connects, disconnects endlessly. - Anonymous

We are still seeing painfully slow screen shares with our retina Macbooks. The older models don't have this problem. - Anonymous

I was excited to see the contact list issue fixed! Then I tried it and realized the error message just got updated. I'm disappointed to see that I still cannot use a contact list in Lync :-(. Searching for people to send them a message has gotten old. - Anonymous

Maybe I can finally change the screen I am sharing the desktop for now. Perhaps that is part of the 'substantial improvement in Desktop Sharing' =)

After the update to 14.0.9 I get extreme delays/latency in the upstream - up to 5 sec.!!! delay. Screensharing (incoming) is painfully slow. Tried complete de-install and new install - no change. Windows Lync client on exact same network shows no such effects. - Anonymous

I am having a connection issue with Lync 14.0.9 on a new Mac (OS X 10.9.4). I receive an error when attempting to sign in while on the network at work (both wired and wireless). When I am anywhere else, sign on works with no issues. I even tried taking the domain out of the user name with no luck. I have never used any manual config with Lync. Any tips would be much appreciated. - Anonymous

Webb,
If you have your contacts rolled back from UCS mode, Lync for Mac will work for you. Your administrator should be able to roll UCS back for you. - Anonymous

I just successfully used Lync on 10.9.4 while inside the corporate network where the Lync server is. Then i got all the above mentioned errors when I tried it outside the corporate network - even though the server is set up to allow users outside to use Lync. - Anonymous

Lync for Mac does not show list of meetings like it does for Windows. Am I looking in the wrong place to get the list of meetings or is this not a Mac feature? - Anonymous

Just a tip for anyone out there experiencing the "spinning beach ball of death" in Lync (especially when you receive calls and hang up calls). I had been experiencing this problem for well over a year, when I finally happened to disconnect the USB cable connecting my Mac to my Polycom CX600 desk phone. As soon as I did this, Lync became much more responsive and I have not had a single crash or "beach ball of death"! Moral of the story, the Polycom CX600 phone is completely unusable with Lync for Mac. - Anonymous

I am having no issues using Mac 2011 with CX600.
Not sure how you were using the USB to tether because as far as I know, the USB tether is for Windows machines.
