Note: Browsers listed in the Supported column are recommended browsers for use with CCC Confer.
Browsers not listed have not been tested and are not supported.
Note: Windows 98 & Millenium: Microsoft stopped supporting in July 2006
Macintosh 10.2: Apple stopped releasing new updates at the end of 2004
Intel-based Macs: Presently, Safari is the only supported browser. Due to a bug in the way Java is handled by Firefox on Intel based Macs, required applets will cause the browser to crash. This is a known issue and Mozilla is currently working to resolve this bug. (Firefox does work with all non-Intel, or PowerPC Macs. A fix is expected in the next release of FIrefox.)
Linux: Presenters cannot display content via Application Sharing using Linux. However, participants using Linux can view Application Sharing content
