You can use RemoteApp on your Mac to access PSU enterprise applications such as CampusNexus CRM (Talisma) and OnBase either through your browser, or with the Microsoft Remote Desktop application. Instructions for both options are listed below.

If you use PSU enterprise applications frequently, consider using Option 2. While it requires a one-time setup process, the second option provides you with easier ongoing access using Microsoft Remote Desktop.

    If you are using a non-PSU computer, you may see a pop-up asking you to trust "apps-broker.oit.pdx.edu." It is safe to click Connect, and you can check the box beside "Don't ask me again for remote connections from this publisher" to avoid seeing this window again.


  4. Open the file that you downloaded in step 3.

  5. In the pop-up window that appears, enter your Odin username and password then select OK.

Option 2: Use RemoteApp with Microsoft Remote Desktop
