Unsupported due to code change. A solution to fix this became available March 20, 2019.
Issue: Webex Meeting icon no longer works in Outlook on the Mac version 16.23 and higher.
From the Cisco product team, 'Cisco WebEx doesn't have a committed timeframe for delivery of MAC Outlook 2016 support, our target is to have it when Microsoft has their official release of MAC Office 2016.' Stay tuned to this thread, and we'll post an update when it becomes available. Hi All, We are trying to finalize our plans for the WebEx Productivity Tool to support Mac Outlook 2016. I need information on which companies need this urgently so I can strengthen my business case for it. Thanks in advance.
You do need to delete from the Mac the old Webex Meeting application. Go to Finder, type in Application find Webex folder and click on uninstall Webex Meetings. Click restart when that is done then go download Webex Meetings application from . (we are working on getting this download on our installation directions).
Select Webex Meeting and follow the installation steps.

Schedule Webex Meeting
This is a virtual conference space with its own unique roomand is password protected. The password and meeting room number is embedded in the Join Webex Meeting link in an email invitation. The only time the meeting number and password is needed is if the attendee does not click on the Join Webex Meeting link.
Windows
Under the Schedule Meeting icon in the Outlook Desktop Client, you can select from the drop down and choose Schedule Webex Meeting.
Mac
Under the Cisco Webex icon in the Outlook Desktop Client, you can select from the drop down and choose Schedule Webex Meeting.

Schedule Personal Room Meeting
A personal room is your own virtual conference space and it is always available and you never have to book it. You can also schedule a meeting in the future in your personal room. The advantage of scheduling meetings in your personal room is you never have to leave the room when the next meeting starts in your personal room. However, this means, unless you lock your room, others can come in to an already occurring meeting. Your personal room always has the same nine digit number. To find this number, launch your personal room- Meet Now- and go to Meeting in the menu and choose Information. You can also locate your personal room meeting number from the browser by going to uwmadison.webex.com. Login and then select the tab My Webex(if using classic version). If you do not see My Webex, click on the arrow above your initials or image to display the tab options.
Click on Preferences, My Personal Room, and not the nine digit number after the PR
