  Hi Berhanu,

  Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

  Remote Desktop connection is a technology that allows you to sit in front of a computer (sometimes called the client computer) and connect to a remote computer (called the host computer) in a different location. For example, you can connect your computer to work from your home computer and have access to all of your programs, files, and network resources as if you were in front of your computer at work. You can leave programs running at work and then, when you get back, you can see the desktop of your computer work displayed on your computer at home, with the same programs running.

  I would refer to the article below for more helpful information and Setup.

• What I'm missing to allow Remote Desktop connection?

  What has changed in Windows 7 that is so complicated to get remote desktop connect to run on remote computers?  I have my wife's computer and my home theater computer, but also a 'home' server I managed with the DRC compression or at least I did.  Since the upgrade to windows 7, the only link of DRC, I can do now is my "home" Server (which is based windows2003 I think).

  I've done the basics, I go to properties on my check for distance, computer, the box that says allow remote.  I looked at the firewall level, and he checked as enabled remote assistance.  I went up to build my own port 3389 to rule that it did not help.  I even looked through the services and on each service that is set to manual but not started with the word "remote" in there and started at all, still did not help.

  DRC does everything just not in 7 Home premium?

  You can run Remote Desktop [DRC] in client mode on any version of Windows 7. If you want to use to access remote Windows 7 PC then you need to run Windows 7 ultimate or professional. Home editions of Windows 7 may not act as a host DRC.

  It is the same with Vista Home Edition or XP Home Edition. Nor can serve as hosts for DRC.

  Remember that, although Remote Assistance uses the same port in remote desktop, they are completely different programs.

• what webcam for remote desktop?

  Hey, I was wondering if anyone out there knew a webcam that connects via USB and can be used via the remote desktop connection? I have one, but it does not appear as a usable device. Thank you! :-)

  Hey SpydeyNinja,

  Welcome to the Microsoft Answers Forum!

  1. you can use Microsoft VX-3000 webcam.

  2. However, you can use any webcam of your choice that is compatible with Windows Vista.

  3 take a look at the link that talks about the compatibility below Center. Access the below and go

  http://www.Microsoft.com/Windows/compatibility/default.aspx?type=hardware

  Note:
  When you use the Webcam with remote desktop, make sure that you enable remote desktop on both computers.
  You can use devices and resources located on or part of my computer like my printer, hard disk or Clipboard, while I'm connected to a remote computer. Check the settings of the device.

  4. in order to access the webcam on the remote computer user might have to use a third-party software.

• 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.

• 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.

• Includes remote desktop administration software and customer?

  Remote Desktop on the Apple Store includes the client and administrator software?

• Terminal Services/Remote Desktop connections

  We have problems with our Server Terminal server since last Thursday. It seems that all network clients that are disconnected from the remote desktop applications you after a few hours. Our technology company can't find a solution, except the purchase of new servers.  I think it's ridiculous. So I checked the web and found something on a registry change this: fDenyTSConnections from 1 to 0, which is not the case, given that fdenyTSConnections already has value 0.

  What could be the cause of this problem?

  After a Reboot of the Force, each customer is immediately connected to the remote office application and everything works fine. I can't find a cause or a solution, just a remedy that is not sustainable.

  Any suggestions?

• Remote Desktop connection and file sharing

  Hello, I have a technical question about file sharing.

  I use a remote desktop connection to connect to the server of the company.  We are currently between the two groups of IT services (last guy retired, he will be missed!) In any case, I need to backup my desktop files locally and have 4 or 5 of these local desktop file files saved as a backup on the server.   I want to just my files desktop back mount easily on the server. And I don't know how / what to ask to do this. I just need to know what to ask.

  I'm having problems:

  1. I don't know how to configure a file to save its content on and through a secure server.

  2. There are two types of files that I am trying to backup my office.  The details are below.

  2. the first type of files are simple files of customer data, PDF files, word files, files is excellent. Thus, some records are filled with the updated forms and these files constantly increasing in number and size of the file.  A simple example of this type would be a Bill.  File grows in size and file number every week because the new files are always being added.

  2B. I can't accurately describe the second type of file.  We use a program called TFP - when you open the program you load the specific customer file in a drop-down box.  Whenever you open the customer specific AMTS program saves any changes you made to this file and updates the customer file with a new date and then transfers the file from the client to a file from archive in C: drive. Basically, I want to save this file on the server of the company.

  3. can we make us safe so that data gets only shared a way?  I don't want people on the server to change my desktop files.

  Feel free to ask any questions.   Thank you in advance.
