Tried To Citrix Receiver 12.4 , Keeps Ing 12.6 Download Dialog Box

However, whenever I try to start an application by clicking on its icon (ie- Excel, Outlook), I get a file download dialog box.

Its as if the Citrix web interface doesnt realize Im starting an application.

Instead, it asks me if I want to download launch.ica, which I think is the file name for the icon image itself.

The very first time I tried ot launch an app, this did not happen.

Instead, Citrix tried to load Outlook, then gave me a red error message.

I think this might be something simple like internet security sessions or even a mouse button setting.

It sounds like the registry mappings for the.ica file has been lost.

Part of the point of Citrix is that you dont have to use Windows to access applications running on a Windows machine.

My problem is that our Citrix server is behind a firewall that requires me to go connect via a checkpoint SSL VPN.

Tried To Citrix Receiver 12.4 , Keeps Ing 12.6 Mac Version In

That does not seem to work at all on the Mac, though they claim to have a Mac version in the works.

Our system administrator wont put the Citrix server outside the firewall, so for now Im stuck accessing via Windows.

When the dialog box prompts you to save the launch.ica file, choose run instead.see what happens.

That has worked for me on the Mac version.

My problem is that when running on a Win XP guest OS in parallels, I lose the network connection in Citrix after about 10 minutes of use.
