Currently, Co:Writer Network Version will not launch on Mac Clients that are logged in using accounts managed by Active Directory on a Windows Server. The application will crash with an error message “Please launch Co:Writer – This program is only used with Co:Writer”. We are currently investigating the problem to see if there is a workaround that can be applied here, but as of version 1.0 it remains an issue. The Mac workstation will need to be rebooted and then login using a local user system account. If necessary, one will need to be created by your Network Administrator for the Mac workstations.
