I go through the normal route of inputting my password, username and RSA token number and get the download Launch.ica file all as i would of done.
  • Citrix doesn't have a receiver that supports Mac Mojave or 10.14. If you are using Mac and Citrix receiver, then suggestion is, do not upgrade the OS, until Citrix releases a new version that supports Mojave.

Look for a file named Citrix Receiver.app using the command ls grep Citrix. After you find such a file, use the command rm Citrix/Receiver.app to remove it from the Applications folder (Type 'Citrix' and hit Tab to autocomplete for you): 2. Navigate to the /Library folder using the command cd /Library.

  1. Click Next, then Finish.

  2. The printer driver should then be listed in the Installed printer drivers. Click Close.

Problem Cause

Citrix UPD requires the use of the PostScript data format to support client printing on Mac and Linux clients. To achieve this, Citrix leverages PostScript driver developed by HP. The version of this HP driver, that Microsoft had previously built into the Windows 7 and Server 2008 R2 operating systems, is no longer included with Windows 10, Server 2012 R2. Because of this missing driver, client-printers on Mac and Linux endpoints fail to be created in the XenApp and XenDesktop session.

    Problem Cause

    Because the Mac devices does not have a registry like Windows devices, a license must be issued to the client devices name. If the device does not have a name, it cannot be issued a license. It attempts to assign a license to a null value, and the session drops.
