Configure XP Professional remote desktop so that I can access my documents on 3 laptops running Windows 7 Ultimate that I use outside my house.
My main office at home running XP Pro SP 3. It has two hard drives of very large that I keep all my information and products as well as the more recent favorites that can are no longer synchronized through windows live, as they did before.
My 3 laptops are running Windows 7 Ultimate (two are Core 2 and one is an Intel i7) the smallest HDD is 320 GB, 500 GB and the i7 is 650 GB. But I tried many serveral ways to connect and I know it must be something simple that I'm missing.
I read the Article ID: 969084 Description of the Remote Desktop Connection 7.0 and was about to run just with this option up to what I saw in the section:
You don't need a certificate to connect to XP Pro SP3 by using remote desktop. I just checked in you connecting to my computer XP Pro SP3 on a Windows 7 Ultimate computer.
To connect to your computer XP Pro on the Internet, you must configure the firewall on the computer and your router to wide band to enable unsolicited remote desktop connections.

Hi all. I normally wouldn't have a problem with that, but I must be missing something. I want to create a home network or small business between my desktop running windows xp pro sp3 and my laptop running windows 7 Home premium. I want to share files and printers. My desktop with windows xp computer is connected to a wireless router. The printer is connected to my desktop as well. My laptop is wireless with the wireless router. I tried everything I can think of to get these two devices to the network. If anyone can help. Don't forget, my printer is connected to my desktop with windows xp and is connected to my wireless router which is connected to my cable modem. Internet works fine. the laptop with windows 7's wireless and internet works fine. just impossible to get the two see each other or share what anyone. Thank you.
With respect to the sharing of printer (s), microsoft has a utility called 'Print Migrator'
Download & install, create copy, send a copy to the other pc to share its use.

Some time ago I bought Adobe Acrobat 4.0 and aired on a Windows XP laptop. I recently bought another laptop running Windows 7 Professional, but it seems that my version of Adobe Acrobat 4.0 is not compatible with Windows 7. What should I do? Should I purchase an upgrade?
Hi johnindallas,
Yes, you reason as acrobat 4 is not compatible with Windows 7.
Acrobat 4 is a very old version and Adobe no longer provide support for this version.
I suggest you buy the Acrobat DC subscription or license.
For more details on the plans & pricing, please see:

PS CC 2014 works on Windows 7, no problem. Just installed on the laptop running windows 8.1 and the font size is so tiny, that it cannot be read. Options in the settings of the computer are not any improvement. I am unable to use PS at all.

With XP Edition family and professional Remote Desktop connection
Why a person can have remote access to a computer that is operating system is XP Home Edition? Why must it be professional? A person who of the home computer has Vista, but work computer is XP Professional have access to their work computer?
The editions of Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7 are not accessible using desktop remotely. Microsoft has decided that the home computer users not need this feature.
XP Professional, Vista Business and Ultimate, Windows 7 Professional and Ultimate support access using remote desktop.
There are products that can do what you want in XP Home Edition, such as RealVNC . A search on the web for remote access software should show more of them.

I have a new windows 7 pro system which has been configured to host a remote desktop connection. There are 1 user account (active admin), the port number was changed from 3389 and I think that the firewall is disabled (it's Norton Internet Security and I tried to completely disable the firewall).
When I established a remote connection from another computer on the same subnet, the client asks for login/password and the connection ends and goes directly to the screen of the user.
This subnet has an internet connection via a firewall or router. It has been configured to redirect incoming connections for the custom to the host port number.
When I establish a remote connection from outside through the firewall I am invited to login/password, but the Welcome screen appears and the only options are administrator and other users. Administrator is blocked for the account restrictions and using other users to type the login and the password does not work - it still fails on bad login/password.
I've seen this problem described in other forums, but have not seen a solution - anyone got one?
Thank you

My desktop (host) is running Win7 Pro and my (client) laptop is running Win 7 Home Premium. For the office, I went to the control panel and allows remote connections. When I try to connect with the laptop in my same home network, I get an error message: Remote Desktop cannot connect to the remote computer you for 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
Now, the computer is on and I can see what he listed as one of my computers on network. In fact, I accessed the command of remote desktop by right-clicking on the desktop in the list of networks and by selecting Remote Desktop in the menu dropdown.
Obviously, I am missing something or something wrong. Please help me to understand.
What do you call the remote [DRC] host desktop desktop machine, IE. local LAN IP static, the laptop?

My laptop Vista 32 unreal access router and ping its own IP address, but no access to Vista 64-bit Wired Office with ping or try to access folders shared I place some months ago and used without problem until about 2 days ago. I recently did a restore of the laptop but it worked after that and I adjusted all the settings. I have Net bios over TCP/IP enabled on both machines. I have two machines on the workgroup and file sharing is enabled on both. Vista 64 desktop computer can access the Internet but can not access the shared folders that I put in this PC! He cannot ping the router either but can be accessed via the routers Web page. The router is configured correctly as well. I became a master browser errors on Vista 64 desktop until I changed the registry on the laptop off car with respect to the list of servers. I'm a computer technician with networking experience, but am confused on this one. There are so many problems over there near the mine, but they usually have xp machines trying to access Vista or vice-verse. In addition, they cannot access the Internet generally. If anyone out there has any intelligent suggestions I'm desperate, but know that I have this research completely so guess I did all the basic troubleshooting to save time you and me. Thanks in advance to anyone with advice!

Hey thanks for getting back to me, I wanted to let you know that I could solve the problem! I'm not sure excatly what the problem was, but I went and bought a fixed register a program so that I paid for, as you no doubt know the free just ruin your machine more than it is useful, well I ran that and restarted and BOOM! Now even if I can connect to each computer and the internet. I'm still not able to ping? Now when I say that this is not so much genral, the laptop I can ping any name of site Web and number but not the PC. On the PC I can ping its own IP address but not the router or laptop? But it has no bearing on anything so I anticipate leaving me well enough alone. I how ever to download a graphics professional ping program, but not to worried about it! Thank you so much for you help and if I need more help, I hope you are avalibale!
