Catch-22 remote desktop

When you try to open the Office remote (XP Pro) I get a message "the preliminary version of the remote desktop has expired. Go to Windows Update to download a full version of the DRC.

When I go to windows update and try to download I was informed that the program already exists on my machine and then instructed on how to open it. I did use DRC for about 3 years, but it has always worked before. Any suggestions?

Thank you!

I try to uninstall it and then install the current version... -

  • How to purge incorrect DNS names in Apple Remote Desktop Version 3.8 (A 380, 95)

    Environment: Community College, Microsoft DHCP 2012/DDNS network

    Question:

    I've got ~ 140 iMacs with 13% to appear in my Apple Remote Desktop (ARD) scans as having correspondence name vs DNS name of the network.

    I suspect this affects refusal to license for our products Adobe CC. How can I clear the fields name DNS ARD again be filled properly?

    Hi gwanupnorth,

    After checking with file-> Refresh in ARD Admin and there are still agents machine correct without DNS:

    -Check in the list of the scanners of ARD Admin, if the machines of 18 or more are detected it with the correct DNS name.

    -If Yes, click on each one and update the username: password: and it should update the corresponding entry in all computers.

  • Why is my Apple remote desktop not send software upgrades as it should?

    Apple Remote Desktop Help?

    In apple remote desktop there is command-line unix where I can send the command softwareupdate - install - all, and I do as user root on an administrator account. My problem arises when I send the software update and ARD never Specifies if yes or no updates have been installed successfully, it just says: Update software tool. I know that it is not to install the update either, because when I look at computers I see pending updates. I'm new to the apple support and appreciate any help in this matter. Thank you

    have you tried:

    Send the command as root

    the "softwareupdate d-i - a" command?

    Try issuing the command to one computer at a time. If you issue it to 100 computers. Your network can choke on the bandwidth required to download all the updates to those. Keep in mind that softwareupdate is for upgrades of the OS; It will not install the updates of pages or other app store apps.

    If the command works, you'll probably want to restart the computer. If everything is working properly.

  • Apple Remote Desktop tries to connect to some weird areas

    Firefox and osx elcapitan 10.11.4 15E65

    It's so weird that lately my ARD tried to connect to areas randomly I searched on the web. Little Snitch reports she's trying to connect to 'gist.github' and the other day he tried to goto "krampus".  As I said it's strange behavior since it's the kind of thing I entered in google.

    All advice is appreciated.

    I would be a little surprised if Apple Remote Desktop (ARD) have been connecting the specified web sites, you can post what Little Snitch reports as the source and the destination of the connection?  Also please post what version of Apple Remote Desktop (ARD) are you using?   3.8 (A 380, 95) is in course, at last I checked.

    My general recommendation is to remove Little Snitch - this is a great tool, but it also tends to cause problems when network connections are blocked by mistake, and it's certainly excellent fodder for causing paranoia.

    Adware and malware can cause this, but - if you connect to these sites and don't have adware or malware or any sort of anti-virus or anti-malware, or other similar types of tools tools additional loading - I guess it's OS X hides a tile or such.

    Here is a previous related discussion - even if it is not of the ARD.

  • HP envy printer range: HP envy with Win7 Remote Desktop RDP printing problem

    Hello

    I have a printer HP envy 5530 works well for my laptop.

    When I connect to my Win7 Remote Desktop Server (on which HP envy drivers are also installed) and try printing locally on my HP local printer, it does not work.

    When I look at my local mobile print queue, I see two copies of 'Remote Desktop redirected Printer Doc' contained in the queue. One of the queue said copies and then print. Impression size document in the print queue shows 4 KB that is abnormally low, then the missing documents from the print queue, but are not printed on the printer.

    Note that I have no problem with the same laptop, same Remote Desktop server, but using a different printer (not HP).

    I saw that on several forums (including this one), many users have this same problem but I've never seen a valid response that solves this problem with RDP.

    Any idea?

    Thank you

    I solved the problem by creating a new printer on the local computer and configure the port to the Standard TCP/IP port with the IP address of the printer and the HP Deskjet 6940 driver use. Deskjet 5500 driver may work as well.

    The problem is with the specific Envy 5530 driver.

  • Cannot disconnect remote desktop background user

    Running 3.8 remote desktop. My clients usually run 3.8.5, and all have an Admin account I can connect without disturbing the user.

    Host computer running OS X 10.11.4, clients are on a variety of versions of the OS.

    Recently, I started getting the following message when you try to log on to this account Admin:

    The account that you selected is not available.

    Check your network connection and try again to the user account. If you are connected to the network, ask your administrator to help system.

    If you click on the OK button, which is the only button available, you are listed on the desktop of the admin account. This leaves you stuck in the Admin account. I don't like it in abeyance.

    Has anyone seen this error before?

    It seems to be a new problem with the 3.8.5 update. Returning to 3.8.4 on the target mac resets the connection.

  • Cannot start more Apple Remote Desktop

    Hi all

    All of a sudden I can't launch ARD 3.8 (A 380, 95) in El Capitan 11.11.4 more.

    Whenever I try to launch it on one of my Mac, I get a warning telling me that he was able to start "because of an unexpected error" (The Remote Desktop software is not installed properly, or the computer may require a restart).

    It affects all user accounts (so it's not a corrupt user pref) and reinstall the entire system through the complete installer does not help.

    I can use the screen sharing app good...

    After reading an old thread to similar problem (software Remote desktop administrator could not start) I tried to delete all the preferences and support for files following the instructions on the Apple KB page , but it did not help.

    I also checked the Console, and it reports:

    22/03/16 10:02:46.888 AM Remote Desktop [5905]: OpenConnectionToAgent - cannot connect 2

    22/03/16 10:16:36.035 AM ARDAgent [6057]: libcoreservices: _dirhelper: 400: mkdir: path = / var/folders/zz/zyxvpxvq6csfxvn_n0000000000000/C/modes [2] = 0700: permission denied

    22/03/16 10:16:36.035 AM ARDAgent [6057]: confstr(3) on _CS_DARWIN_USER_CACHE_DIR returned an error.

    That could indicate a problem with sandboxing, but still, I see WARNING similar to this one with different applications on different computers without consequences (I suspect the sandboxing allows logging quite talkative today). I checked the cache folder, he was referring to and did not notice anything on the spot or missing (comparing to another computer where work ARD).

    If anyone has a suggestion... I would be eternally grateful

    Of note... I had to replace the drive on the Mac recently and I wonder if it could be a kind of incompatibility of recording equipment. Not sure where that would be stored well and correct uninstallation of the application, following the instructions in the kb should have taken care of that.

  • I can not find Remote Desktop on my OSX 10.11

    I'll try to find the Remote Desktop App on my OSX 10.11 system

    but I can not find...

    Please help me.

    Maybe you're getting confused? Unless you bought the App on the App Store, you won't have it and so you won't find it. What is integrated into the operating system is the ARDAgent, the client part of the App part whole that ARD "exploits".

    You can also something could have trouble with the ARDAgent itself (maybe you've been fiddling with the OS?) and therefore the reason why you ask the question? To see the ARDAgent is installed start the Terminal application - you find the application in the Utilities folder in the Menu go - and type this command:

    system_profiler SPApplicationsDataType | grep ARDAgent

    You can copy and paste the above in the Terminal window. Be patient as this can take some time for the command to run. If successful, you should see something like this:

    /System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app

    Which means that you have the client part of the ARD. Once you have checked this and you have not actually bought the application as described here:

    http://www.Apple.com/UK/RemoteDesktop/

    https://iTunes.Apple.com/GB/app/Apple-Remote-Desktop/id409907375?MT=12

    Then simply start the App Store on your Mac, the App search and buy it.

  • How can I activate the remote control of remote desktop?

    I'm trying to control my 10.4.11 Mac OS X 10.10.4 machine.  Remote Desktop is enabled, I have vnc into it and see the screen, but the options to activate the control grayed out on my window of the 10.4.11 machine.    I know that I could do it with iChat, but I would like to be able to do this with the Office remotely like I can with 10.6 and later.  Clues as to why the mouse control is grayed and what to do about it?

    In sharing office window remote access, which users are listed, & are checked?

    If no user you must add at least one, if the box IT didn't is not enabled for a user, then all options right will be grayed out.

  • login screen Remote desktop showing on mac client connection

    Hello

    is there a way to prevent the display of the login screen, when connecting to a Remote Desktop client workstation? The connection is already arranged with a login, so now I need to identify 'twice'. First time with AutoConnect when you click on a workstation in Remote desktop and second manually when the other customer's screen opens. This was not in Yosemite, but appeared first in El Capitan and it's kind of annoying.

    I use the old worgroupmanager to control the use of USB devices. It interacts with the login screen, too?

    Is there a way I can avoid this login screen?

    I have a machine that is the Mountain Lion, without Workgroupmanger, and this is the normal behavior without any login screen.

    In fact, it was the Workgroup Manager. You need to disable the connection to local users only, which is enabled by default.

  • Apple Remote Desktop (3.8.5) on several network interfaces

    Location:

    Running Office at distance between an iMac and a Mac mini, both running up-to-date El Capitan.  ARD version 3.8.5

    Both computers are on two networks, the WiFi network including the internet connection and is therefore "primary" and a wired machine-to-machine ethernet connection.  WiFi and ethernet are on separate subnets.

    In Didier, ARD 3.8.4, the Remote Desktop on the Mini app would announce (on Hello) as 'Active' wireless and wired interfaces, and from the iMac, I could choose who I want to use.  Usually the cables, connection gigabit ethernet to reduce network activity on WiFi.

    After these two machines 10.11.2 and ARD 3.8.5, update the Mini looks like 'Active' on the WiFi connection and 'offline' on the connection wired and is the remote desktop will not connect via the wire link. (no change with 10.11.3)

    I tried all combinations of options, I could think of to try to force the 3.8.5 on the Mini ARD announced as 'Active' on the wired connection.  Until beginning with no network connection, at all, on each machine, with all remote management and sharing turned off, re-boot both systems and leaving the disabled WiFi connection.  All to nothing does not.

    Paradoxically, file sharing works great!  It's just the Remote Desktop/screen sharing (Yes, I tried also, all possible combinations) will not announce or connect to the wired connection.

    When the two networks are active, sharing on the Mini preferences show the IP address for the primary network (WiFi) as well as the name (Nimitz.local) of the computer.  However, if the WiFi connection is not active there is no IP address displayed and the ".local" does not appear in the name of the computer.  It appears as just "Nimitz" not "Nimitz.local".

    I went through all the / library, folder ~ / Library, looking for whatever it is possibly connected to this issue.  I opened the files, checked the files, replaced the files and deleted the files without result.

    So my question is: how to do Remote Desktop or screen sharing to connect to the wired interface?  I'd rather not try and go back to Yosemite and ARD 3.8.4 if possible.

    Thank you for your patience!

    Kyle

    App for screen sharing, it must use the wired connection if you Set 1) Ethernet on your system of Viewer to be the first interface in system preferences-> network-> gear-> Service order icon set... and 2) to connect to the target by its IP Ethernet address. Remote Desktop is the MAC address of each computer and combines the addresses into a single entity. Most likely, the second computer that shows 'offline' is a file incomplete or dead. I would like to delete it. ARD promotes the address who has worked both previous. In theory, you can turn off WiFi and connect once via Ethernet and it will remain.

  • Equium L40 - Vista - BSOD using remote desktop

    Hello

    I have been using my laptop to connect to an XP machine using remote desktop. In recent weeks, the laptop began to blue screen and stop. There is no reason to set, the only thing I noticed, is that if I have IE open on the satellite, it seems blue screen rather sooner than later.

    I did used such as the reduction of the resolution and the number of colors are imported from the XP, smooting fonts wallpaper, Wallpapers etc.

    Still freezes however.

    Any thoughts?

    Wireless driver is fully updated...

    Hello

    In your case, it is really not easy to say why the BSOD appears
    But I would exclude the hardware problem and would tend to the issue of the software

    It seems a Vista and the XP operating system should communicate together eventually it s a Vista problem?  :| I have read several articles on the Vista bugs and to be honest it possible s that and patch is necessary

    I would really recommend update Vista to the last State. Find all patches and fixes. In addition, you must know that the Vista service pack 1 is now available.
    This time it s that a BETA version and the final version will be available in the coming weeks

    Lets see
