Citrix Receiver Google Chrome Mac



Google Chrome is a native app (.app) which can just be put into the Applications Folder. Citrix Receiver, however, is an iInstaller (.pkg). Wrapping a.app file (Google Chrome) Open Terminal on the Mac and navigate into the Tools folder where CMAppUtil is located. Windows and Mac OS X users cannot access desktops and applications from Receiver using Google Chrome 37 or later. When a user opens Receiver in the browser, the Unblock the Citrix plug-in message is displayed. The Citrix application runs inside Chrome as a tab with a circular ball in the middle (I have also read it mentioned as Half-moon due to the shape seen when not clicked on). This does not allow me.

Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox provide the best experience for this.
