  CAN ANYONE HELP?

  Hi Mordi26:

  This could be because windows server 2003 is not updated with the latest version of the Terminal Server client. With terminal services client 6.0 update... It should solve the problem. Here is the link to download:

• If I configure Windows XP for automatic logon, then I can't access with Remote Desktop in Windows 7.

  I have Windows XP on my old computer and Windows 7 on my new.

  I have my old computer with auto-logon installation as described in http://support.microsoft.com/kb/315231, when it starts, it will automatically in Windows XP.

  However, if I try to connect remotely from my new computer with Windows 7, I can I connect, but as soon as the old computer hangs on the spot, the automatic connect feature kicks in and the old computer connects again locally, actually expel the connection at a distance in a few seconds.

  Please notify. Thank you.

  I think that this is normal, you cannot establish a remote desktop connection to a Windows XP computer when automatic login is enabled, I believe that this has been changed in Windows 7.

  In Windows 7 and XP only professional versions can act as a hostfor Remote Desktop.

  There could be similar restrictions on Windows Vista.

  In each case, you must configure the host to allow VPN connections. To test, run these commands:

  1. On the host itself:
     Telnet %ComputerName% 3389
  2. On any computer on your network:
     Telnet {Hostname or IP host address} 3389

  In each case, you get a response. If you do not then the host is not set correctly or its firewall blocking your access.

• Error trying to use remote desktop.

  I'm having a repeatable error trying to use remote desktop in Windows 7 Pro.

  Your computer could not connect to another session from the console on the remote computer, because you already have a current console session.

  I don't have sssion another current.  I get this error right after a fresh reboot.  A Mater of fact due to multiple problems, I got with a new computer, I have re-installed Windows on another hard drive to make sure that everything was fresh.  I get the same error.

  I am connected with administrator privileges and I got this error the first time I tried to establish a session.  It's the same problem I had with the other installation of Windows.  Can someone point me to a solution?  I'm relatively new to versions of Windows 7, but not at the earliest.

• Want to access another computer on Windows 7 using Remote Desktop connection

  Dear member of the community,

  I have 2 desktops, one with 10 windows and more with windows 7. Now I want remote access to the computer windows 10 windows 7 without logging on the computer windows 10. Kindly, guide me for the same thing.

  Hello Alice,.

  I would like to know some information about the problem so that we can help you better.

  The computers are connected to a domain network?

  Thank you for details on the issue.

  I also appreciate that fact that you want to access 10 Windows in Windows 7 remotely.

  With Remote Desktop connection, you can connect to a computer running Windows from another computer running Windows that is connected to the same network or to the Internet. For example, you can use all of the programs, files, and network resources from your computer on your computer at home, and it's just that you are sitting in front of your computer at work.

  To connect to a remote computer that computer must be turned on, it must have a network connection, Remote Desktop must be enabled and you must have access to the network to the remote computer (this could be through the Internet), and you must have permission to connect. To obtain permission to connect, you must be on the list of users. Before you start a connection, it's a good idea to search the name of the computer you are connecting to and to make sure that Remote Desktop connections are allowed through the firewall.

  I suggest you use the steps in this article and check if it helps.

• Cannot print using Remote Desktop connection

  I have a computer that we will called XP. XP was XP loaded on this subject. It is on a home network with ethernet etc. It has a USB Samsung CLP315 printer attached to it, which we will call SAMSUNG.  XP print SAMSUNG without any problem. SAMSUNG is shared and has the latest drivers.

  Configuration on XP
  Pilot # is 3.04.85:44
  Port: USB001 virtual printer for USB Port
  Sharing installed additional drivers Intel environment Windows 2000 or XP

  Using Remote Desktop connection, I connect to my computer at work, that we will call the WORK that has Windows 7 above and is part of a local network. When you use Word for example on WORK, I should be able to print on SAMSUNG on XP. However SAMSUNG on XP does not present as a printer available. However, I can print from JOB printers shared on the local network or locally connected. Unfortunately, it is of limited use to me because I can not physically get the printed paper, or to know if the printed page correctly until the next day, I get to work.

  I have the Settings Options on the remote desktop connection when I connect XP to WORK remotely. I think that this complies with the info I found on the knowledge base.

  On the general tab, I have the correct name of the computer and user. I have "allow me to save credentials" deselected.

  Local "resources" tab, "materials and resources local printers" and "Clipboard" are selected. Under 'More', 'smart cards' and 'Cards series' are selected. Similarly 'Readers' and 'Supported peripheral Plug - n Play' and their subitems are all selected.

  Tab programs not specified

  If there is other information in the options that may be relevant, please advise and I will detail later.

  Already XP used to via the desktop connection to remotely connect to another computer to WORK which took place of XP. When I'd do things on the WORK and wanted to print with SAMSUNG on XP, SAMSUNG has shown on the list of available printers and would print WORK jobs

  On the local network at the office, WORK is connected and print to a shared printer on a computer showroom (XP) which is identical to the SAMSUNG for model # and driver. So by my way of thinking, the driver is already loaded and functioning.

  Any help would be appreciated.

• Remote Desktop on Windows 7 Professional 64-bit does not connect to my computer Windows XP VPN

  I recently updated from windows XP 32-bit to Windows 7 64 bit.  According to the same installation instructions, that I used on XP to connect to my computer to work through VPN & remote desktop is no longer working.  I can connect to the VPN connection without no problem, but when I use remote desktop to connect to the computer, it does not work.  I get the message:

  Remote Desktop cannot connect to the remote computer to one of the following reasons:

  (1) remote access to the server is not enabled

  (2) the remote computer is disabled

  (3) the remote computer is not available on the network

  Make sure that the remote computer is on and connected to the network, and remote access is enabled.

  Items 1-3 are all very well, so it must be another problem.  I also checked windows firewall remote desktop is allowed on the exceptions list.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated!

  I fixed, which was ultimately quite simple.  I changed the 3 settings, 1 - uncheck the TCP/IP v6 2 - in the options of the remote desktop, ADVANCED tab, I changed the server authentication for: connect and don't warn me.  3 - below, to connect from anywhere, settings...  I chose: do not use a remote desktop gateway server. \
  I checked the TCP/IP v6 and everything still works.
  Hope that helps someone.
