Smart Card Omnikey 3121 (USB) on MacPro MAC OS 10.4.7 won´t work

Hello,
I´m trying to use an USB OMNIKEY Smartcard 3121 on my MacPro for email encryption in a Citrix Session.

If a put the smartcard into the reader, the red light is flashing 1 sec only. The content from the smart card is not delivered into the Citrix Session. But the PC/SC Testprogram can connect to the reader.
Changing the rights of the whole content in directory /var/run/pcscd/ to 666 does not solve the problem.

Does anybody have an experience with this?
Thank you!

Wilkommen zu Apple Discussions!

I'd contact Omnikey and ask them if they have tested their key on 10.4.7. If they only have used a previous version of Mac OS X you may need a Mac which came with the older version of Mac OS X that they tested with or older. If you do have the older operating system as compatible with that computer, you may want to install a second hard drive on your machine with that older operating system.

Macs can't run an older operating system than they shipped with.
