Hi, I have a scenario with one of my clients that is trying to access a Sharepoint site from a browser within a Mac client. I believe he is using FireFox to try and access the site. I have 2 questions. First, does Microsoft officially support a Mac client trying to access a Sharepoint site, can I get technical support for this if I needed to? Second, my client is receiving an error of 'Access denied' when attempting to login to the Sharepoint site, but when using a PC he is able to do this without a problem. Is this a cookie issue potentially or some other type of settings issue? Regarding URLS, I have seen that Mac's cannot handle a web app Host Header like.
Mac's need a FQDN like. Free vocal effects vst plugins. I have similar case, I just add domain suffix in network configuration, e.g. And just add domain suffix domain.com in network configuration and you are done. Also as I sad after installing Safari 4 on Mac OS (leopard) all problems are gone, Safari 4 connect and works perfect with WSS p.s. Its little different wane you use Safari on Mac and Safari on Windows, for example Safari 4 on Mac supports full Exchange 2010 Outlook Live experience and Safari 4 on Windows doesn’t.

The first thing we need to know is whether these are WSS 2.0 or WSS 3.0 sites (or the roughly equivalent SPS 2003 and MOSS 2007 - roughly equivalent as far as browser access goes). Microsoft support both these from non-IE browsers but with a lower level of support than for IE 5.x and upwards. There are Microsoft papers describing the different levels of support that maybe a Microsoft person answering this thread later could supply.
The basic principle is that support from non-IE browsers is much better for the v3 SharePoint products than for the v2 products. Drop-downs work for instance to a certain extent in connection with a v3 site. As for Mac / Firefox.
I use Firefox on an XPPro (for both v2 and v3 sites) as my main browser at work. I also need to run two copies of IE (6) for two different v2 sites in order for instance to be able to edit items by using a dropdown - in Firefox I would need to have a special view with an edit button. Firefox is rarely left for the v3 site however. In my free time I mostly use Safari on a MacBook. I have the above mentioned views set-up so I can edit even v2 items but otherwise I rarely have things for which I need to start up my Vista machine. Mostly that is started if I am using colours / bold etc. For multi-line edit boxes where in Safari I'd need to write HTML code.
Typically also Admins will have times when they need a copy of IE and a PC. Your second question is a completely different one It might well have something to do with him entering the wrong name/password isn't he even getting a far as the name/password box? I'd suspect the browser settings rather than cookies. Mike, Apologize, you are absolutely correct, I should have provided the platform. Its WSS 3.0 on a Windows 2003 box. The Mac is a Mac Leopard. Thanks for all the information, appreciate it, you have definitely verified some concerns of mine, and have given me a better direction.
Sharepoint Server Microsoft
Are they any Microsoft individuals monitoring this thread that could point me to the papers documenting the support level for non-IE browsers on a Mac platform (or any platform, i.e. Linux) accessing a Sharepoint site?
Or is it possible to tell me whether Microsoft does officially support the scenario I have described? Thanks to all, Roy.
Sharepoint Server 2007 For Mac Download
Sharepoint provides down-level support for Safari and Firefox on the Apple platform. HTML renders fine, but any of the features that are implemented using ActiveX are not supported (online presence, multiple file upload with progress indicators, a few other features). None of the browsers on that platform support all of the authenication methods implemented as part of IIS and Sharepoint. Therefore, a Sharepoint Administrator must configure the site itself to allow basic or digest authentication (which is less secure).

Some browsers support NTLM for basic file access, but they still don't play well with Sharepoint AFAIK. LaLoV's post is really a separate question, but I've been able to address a similar problem by changing the XSLT used in the search results web part.
You can 'reformat' the URL for each result to change the prefix from afp:// or smb:// (and any other part of the URL) to whatever will be accessible by the end user. This is presuming that this content is accessible to the end user with something that could be typed into the browser bar. If the end user can't get at the content from their PC + browser without SharePoint, then SharePoint indexing external file shares won't help you.
