So this really should be called Part 2. It is hard to believe, but it was almost 5 years ago, I posted this. And a couple of years ago, Kevin Williamson from the CRM Online team posted a updated version of using CRM on your Mac.
So it has been coming up about once in a while for me and the old blog posts refuse to die. So as things would have it, about four months ago, I purchased an iMac. And after playing with it, it sat in the corner of my office playing music and not much else.
Well wouldn’t you know we had a couple of customers who are running CRM in a 1/2 Windows | 1/2 Mac Environment. So it gave me an excuse to break out the new machine and record some videos.
In this quick video, we show how you can connect to a Windows Server using Remote Desktop Services, automatically launch Outlook, Export some data to Excel, edit the data in Excel on the OSX desktop and update it in Dynamics CRM.
In future videos, I will show Parallels, Riva, and Mobile Express working on an OSX based machine.
This video requires Silverlight. I also have a DemoMate version of it if you would like to use it.
