If I can't join Lync meetings via the Lync Web App, that will hamper when I need to do. This seems to be a problem with the Lync Web App only. Googling suggested that several people had the black box problem on MBPs, but that was for the Lync desktop app, which appears to work fine for me. The two boxes have the same software and the same setup, as far as I can tell. So why can't I share video in the Lync Web App on my MBP? I thought perhaps there’s a hardware difference between the cameras on the two boxes which might contribute to the problem, but I don’t know enough to say. ⁃ Changing my default browser from Safari to Firefox so the Lync Web App uses the latter browser
⁃ Futzing around with the Lync preferences Refer to this post if you want to use IIS ARR. Update: Since TMG is end of life, You can now use IIS ARR to publish Lync Server 2013. Unfortunately, you cannot use your External web url, since Lync traffic is bridged to port TCP 4443, and Office Web Apps Server works HTTPS, meaning TCP 443. ⁃ Replacing the ugin file with a version before Mavericks, per Next step is to configure a publishing rule in TMG 2010. ⁃ Completely uninstalling Lync for Mac 2011 and reinstalling version 14.0.7, per I can share audio and video on my iMac in the Lync Web App successfully (there’s an annoying echo problem with the Lync Web App audio on my iMac, but I posted another discussion about that). But when I share video, I see a black box where the picture should be. I unmute myself and folks can hear me, so audio is working fine.
When I click Join Lync Meeting in Outlook, Firefox pops up, I log into Office365, and join the meeting in Lync 2013 Web App just fine.
I have Outlook for Mac 2011 and Lync for Mac 2011 installed. I have Microsoft Office365 though my company.

Here’s hoping somebody here can tell me how to resolve this, or tell me definitively that it’s not fixable. They run great, but I can’t share video in Lync 2013 Web App meetings. I have an iMac 27" and a MacBook Pro 15” Retina purchased brand new from Apple in early 2014.
