The following document will guide you how to save files locally to your MacOS device from UCF Apps. The examples below show how you can do so in Microsoft Excel, but other applications have very similar steps.

IMPORTANT: The Citrix Workspace Client is required to save files locally to your device. If you do not already have Citrix Workspace installed, please refer to KB0012416 – How to install UCF Apps (MacOS).

Step 1 – Once you are finished working on the file, click on Save As. Then, click Browse.

Step 2 – Click on > next to This PC to expand the save locations. If you encounter a dialogue box like the one below, check Don't ask me again and then click Read & Write.

NOTE: Network and local drives, including any external drives (such as USB flash drives), should be available.

Step 3 – Click on Local Disk (Computer Name) and navigate to the desired location you want to store the file.

NOTE: If you do not know your computer name, click on the Apple logo in the top-right corner > System Preferences > Sharing. Your computer name will be displayed on the top.

Step 4 – Once you navigated to the desired location, you will need to give your file a name and then click Save.

Step 5 – Verify that your file was saved at the desired location before closing the application.
