When using a personal Mac but have not set up anything with the UConn network (Direct Access or RDP), it is recommended to use an external drive (if customer has full version of Citrix).  as an intermediary to save files from Anyware. You can save to the external hard drive from AnyWare , and then save to the Mac from the external drive (you can't move directly with the Mac, unlike Windows).  . You cannot move directly from Anyware to a Mac’s internal storage, unlike with Windows.
