System Requirements
You must ensure your system meets the minimum hardware and software requirements described in this article:http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepointserver/HA101945391033.aspx
The following are the client side requirements for SharePoint 2007:
Although administrative tasks on SharePoint sites are optimized for level 1 browsers, Office SharePoint Server 2007 also provides rendering support for other browsers that are commonly used. To ensure that you have complete access to all the functionality, we recommend that you use a level 1 browser for administrative tasks.
Level 1 Web browsers:
- Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows 2003, Windows Vista client with IE6, IE7 or IE8.
Level 2 Web browsers:
- Win 2000, Win XP, Win2003, Vista client with Firefox 1.5, Mozilla 1.7 or Netscape 8.1
- Unix/Linux with Firefox 1.5 or Netscape 7.2
If a browser is not listed in either level 1 or level 2, it is not supported. For example, older browsers — such as Internet Explorer 5.01, Internet Explorer 5.5x, Internet Explorer for Macintosh, and versions of third-party Web browsers that are earlier than the ones listed as level 2 browsers — are not supported.
Level 1 Web browsers take advantage of advanced features provided by ActiveX controls and provide the most complete user experience. Level 1 browsers offer full functionality on all SharePoint sites, including the Central Administration Web site.
Level 2 Web browsers provide basic functionality, so that users can both read and write in SharePoint sites and perform site administration. However, because ActiveX controls are supported only in level 1 browsers and due to the functionality differences within different browsers, a different user experience might be provided and there could be some variances from the user experience from the level 1 browsers.
The Mac OS is not supported at this time.
