  I have a laptop with a single monitor.

  I need remote desktop for my computer at home and be able to see two screens on my computer at home.

  How do I do that?

  Original title: dual monitor question

  If you look at 'Options' remote desktop and look at the "View" tab there is a checkbox for "use all of my monitors for the remote session.  You may need to be an administrator to set this option.

• using Remote Desktop for access the ddns domain how to

  Hello

  Hope someone can help me.

  I have a host pc that is running windows 7 Professional, that it has installed the TightVNC server. It works well with the connection to other machines using tightVNC viewer to connect to other PCs.

  I implemented the pc host with a ddns domain so my business partner can easily connect to the host computer of the USA. My partner has a Mac running leopard OSX 10.9. It has installed Microsoft Office remote (even if he built in VNC viewer on the Mac) so far, we have been unable to connect to the host via the ddns domain xxxxx.mynetgear.com pc and it is very confusing how to fill the boxes username and password office remotely. My business partner is reluctant to download any software visualization VNC is not compatible or offered at the shop Mac... is possible that it can connect to the host pc? If you use desktop remotely how should he fill the boxes to connect? is the user name, the name of user and password on the host pc or the name of user and password to the ddns?

  any help would be greatly appreciated.

  Thank you very much

  Why not use TeamViewer? Much simpler to configure than VNC or RDP.

  If you insist on using RDP, you must be aware of these points:

  • You must set up a VPN or even create a tunnel to port 3389 on the router on your side. In this case, you must assign a fixed IP address to the host PC.
  • You must enable the remote desktop on the host PC (the one on your side).
  • You must use telnet.exe to check if port 3389 is open at your end.
  • To reduce the risk of having hacked, I recommend that you change the port 3389 to something else, for example 49329.

• Remote Desktop for Windows 7 Professional hangs at welcome screen

  Setup: 2 machines on a private network. Trying to remote desktop of Windows Vista Edition full of Windows 7 Professional.

  The host machine is running Windows 7 Professional. This Windows 7 machine has 1 single user account which is an Admin that I use to log on (let's say it's 'Joe').

  I turned on the remote desktop via computer > properties > remote adjustment > "allow connection of computers running any version of office (less safe) remotely. Then, to be sure my account has access, clicked "select users...". "and above the"Add..." "and 'Remove' buttons, he bed 'Joe already has access."
  The client machine that I use remotely to the Windows 7 machine runs Windows Vista Ultimate Edition (let's call it "Joe-notebook").
  When I run Remote Desktop Connection program, I tried using the "Joe-Win7" computer name and address local static ip that I assigned to the Windows 7 PC 192.168.1.15.  When prompted I provide the username of the account Admin ("Joe") and the password. At this point, the remote desktop connection goes full screen and I can see that it starts to log on to the Windows 7 computer. A few seconds, the blue spindle stops, and a few seconds later, I get the error message "your Remote Desktop session has ended." The connections to the remote computer was lost, possibly due to network connection problems. Try to connect to the remote computer again... etc"
  I tried:
  1. Disable all the non Microsoft Win 7 PC via msconfig services.
  2. Rename the computer Win 7 PC name.
  3. Assign a static ip address to the Win 7 to use the ip address.
  4. Made sure that RDP was on the list of exceptions to firewall on PC Win 7.
  Things to note:
  • I am able to the RDP of the Win 7 PC to PC Vista Ultimate on my home network.
  • On the network, I have a Windows XP computer that is also unable to RDP to Windows 7 PCs.
  • I recently installed Windows 7 on this PC and RDP has not worked yet, so this isn't a problem 'suddenly '.
  Thank you for your help,
  Andrew
  P.S., so far, I am very impressed with Windows 7. Keep up the good work.

  I found the problem with my inability to RDP to my Windows 7 computer.

  On my desktop Windows 7 Pro, I use a card (Rosewill RNX-G300EX) wireless network. When I installed the drivers for this card, she also installed software GUI of own Rosewill (Ralink Wireless Utility) to connect to wireless networks. This setting overrides Windows 7 is built in the GUI to connect to wireless networks.

  On a wild guess, I uninstalled the drivers and software for my wireless card and then reinstalled the drivers only and used Windows 7 built in networking and it works now.

  I hope this helps.

• Why Windows 7 won't remember my Desktop Slideshow setting after using Remote Desktop for it?

  Probably need Windows 7 Professional or better to do, I don't remember what editions have Remote Desktop.
  I really love using the Windows 7 with desktop slideshow feature. I have a very large amount of funds in a folder of wallpapers which I configured my 'theme' customization which is supposed to spend on a daily basis.
  Usually, the scenery change as they are supposed to, but very quickly, I noticed that once school started, the same background blocked for awhile. After resetting the setting time and time again, I noticed that the background changes is no longer after that I used another machine remotely in this machine.
  While I understand why turn off desktop slideshow arrives for remote desktop, why didn't he re - turn on desktop slideshow after disconnecting the remote session?
  Steps to reproduce:
  Computer 1: Turn on Desktop Slideshow in customization (Customize, wallpaper, choose a background screen, use fill as a position of the image, change image daily 1, mixed). Save the changes. Save this theme with any name, for example 'the mine'.
  Computer 1: right-click on the desktop: notice that she has 'Next wallpaper' from the context menu.
  2 (Windows XP) computer: Remote Desktop connection to connect to computer 1.
  Computer 2: Close the Office connection remotely using the [X] button on the title bar of masking (disconnection without disconnection).
  Computer 1: Connect on your computer.
  Computer 1: right-click on the desktop: note that the "next wallpaper" is MISSING from the context menu.
  Computer 1: If you go to the customization, the current theme will be unsaved theme that uses the last wallpaper, but don't use a Desktop Slideshow.
  This should not happen. He should go immediately to my previous theme, or even if I do not save the theme, it must return to the original values that was there before the use of remote desktop.
  Does anyone else know this? Is there a solution? Or am I doomed to have constantly changing my theme daily until Microsoft fixes this (If they decide to)?
  I use Windows 7 Professional build 7600 x 64 (MSDNAA image).

• Remote Desktop for the external IP address is no longer works

  Hello and thanks for your help.

  For months I could access my desktop from my laptop (via Remote Desktop) / Tablet (via PocketCloud), both inside and outside my network.

  Recently, the external IP address for my router has changed. As this happened, I was not able to access my desktop to the outside.

  Other possible factors:

  -A had a problem of invalid system disk on my desktop which has been resolved by changing the boot order.

  -J' I registered a domain name, which I redirected to the old IP address. I have since updated the domain to redirect to the new IP address.

  I tried the IP address and the URL (using my domain name) to try and MOP with no luck.

  Any suggestions?

  Thank you

• Vista Remote Desktop for Win 7 Pro (host) (client) home

  I use VPN to connect to the server - works fine. Remote Desktop to my IP address of the host keeps coming back with "invalid credentials" and invites you with password entry.  I know that I entered the password correctly.  Any help out there

  I finally got to work.  I changed my password on my computer Windows 7 (host).  When you enter the user ID in Remote Desktop, I had to use user domain\username.  It worked finally.

• Remote Desktop for Mac will not use the printer driver

  On an iMac with Lion 10.7.3, I try to get an Epson ReadyPrint T20 - TM to use the Epson driver when it is connected to our server Windows 2008 R2 with DRC 2.1.1 but it keeps using a HP Color Laser Jet 2800 Series PS we have not the HP printer and I need some features in the Epson driver.

  I installed the printer on the server and removed several times without alteration. When 'Use a printer connected to the Mac' is selected in the preferences of the DRC the printer is a printer that is redirected, but the use of the driver of HP. Printing from Mac works with all the features.
  On the server, we have 3 installed roles, file, desktop Services to remote and Web server (IIS) Services
  We have tried to map the printer with an EPSONRedirect.INF file that contains the following:
  ; EPSONRedirect.INF

  ; Printer mapping file for drivers side client-side Server

  [Printers]

  "EPSON TM - T20" = "EPSON TM - T20 ReceiptJ4"
  No idea how we can fix this?

• Server Windows 2008 R2 - can you use for a single user remote desktop after the initial 120-day grace period?

  I installed Windows Server 2008 R2.  During the 1st 120 days, remote desktop worked for multiple users.  Now that the 120 days are up, it is necessary to purchase client access licenses.  However, is it possible to activate the remote desktop for one user without having to purchase client access licenses?  If so, I would like to ask for details.  I've been everywhere in the server options and can't seem to find the right combination.  Thank you!

• Problems with the work computer remote desktop connection

  I used the remote desktop for VPN connections to work for a few years.  My new employer has a Sonic Wall VPN.  My home PC is running XP.  The work computer is Windows 7.  I activated the remote on this computer connectivity.  I can connect to the VPN with a number.  Remote Desktop detects the computer to work without problems as well.  When I try to signon with my valid credentials, I get a message that my ID or password is invalid.  By using the same credentials locally everything works perfectly.  I tried to connect with my user disconnected and connected in the workplace with no difference in results.  Any thoughts there?
