Error 500 from Microsoft Remote Desktop for Mac and for iOS but not for Windows

I am running Windows Server Standard 2012 as a basic File server and Remote Access Server.  I am able to log into to Server remotely using Windows Remote Desktop Client on Windows 7 and 8 machines without problems
When I try to log in using outside the local network using MRD version 8.0.24308 using OS X 10.9.1 or using iOS 7.0.4, I get the following error:
" The gateway failed to connect with the message: 500 Internal Server Error"
I can also log in remotely WITHIN the local network on a Mac or iOS device, it works without getting an error
Any Ideas?

My IT person has tried all these and I still get a 500 error when I log in from Microsoft Remote Desktop 8.5.  
Here is part of the MRD log dump (not clear where to send the log since MRD doesn't provide an address when you dump the log into email):

  • Access AFP, email, Remote Desktop via VPN and local network but NOT web

    How can I do this? Right now I can set up all these services where I can access them via VPN only, but not on the local network or via the web. If I want to access them via the local network I have to open up the ports in the firewall, however this opens up access via the web (not requiring VPN) which I do NOT want. How do I remedy this?

    Thank you in advance,

  • Can't connect remote PC with Microsoft Remote Desktop for Mac after using a new router

    I'm using a Windows 8.1 computer as a HTPC to download files and I set it logins automatically and I just need to press the power button then use RD for Mac to control the HTPC without extra monitor, keyboard...
    Here is the problem: After I took my Mac and HTPC to another place, I can't connect it with new router now. (I change the PC name to new local IP, nothing else changed)
    It shows on screen that:
    Unable to connect to remote PC. Please verify Remote Desktop is enabled, the remote PC is turned on and available on the network, and then try again.
    I can use shared disk drive of the HTPC on my Mac so I know the connection works.
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
    Generally, if it is a home network environment, please use IP address of the target computer as the PC name.

  • Cut/Paste not working in Microsoft Remote Desktop for Mac

    Sirs,
    I am using Microsoft Remote Desktop V8.05 build 24428 on a Mac under the latest Mavericks OS, and I find that Cut and Paste are not working. When I paste on Remote Desktop Windows always pastes the last thing cut/copied under the Windows remote session,
    rather than whatever I just cut/copied in another Mac window.
    I am well  aware that the keystrokes are different, and I tried to follow the instructions on another question which indicated that I should select the console session  checkbox on Remote Desktop's 'Connection' configuration window. However Remote
    Desktop no longer seems to have that option ... the topmost line now shows 'Admin Console' and checking it did not help with cut/paste.
    I hope you can tell me how to get this working as cut/paste is a great convenience.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Clipboard redirection is not supported in current versions of Microsoft Remote Desktop. However, I will help to submit this as customer wish to the product team.
    Thanks for your understanding.

  • OS 10.6.3 and Remote Desktop for windows server, PDF Printer problem

    We are using Remote desktop for mac by windows in the office to work on a remote windows server, On the server we are using a business software (Mamut) for sale. In OS 10.5 we are using the PDF Printer to transfer PDF (invoice) from the business software (Mamut) 'Mamut is seeing the PDF printer as any other printer' to the desk top of your mac, so we can attach the PDF to a mail before we send it out to a customer, but in OS 10.6 the PDF printer is removed! So we need a different way of transfer the PDF from the windows server to the mac desk top.
    So now I am wondering if any one has a suggestion on how to fix this! if not we can't upgrade to OS 10.6, and that would be a shame!

    The thing is that in Mamut, we hit print, and because we us the PDF printer as Printer for Remote desk top, it pup up on the desk top of the mac, as a PDF. But in OS 10.6 there isn't any PDF printer to install, so then we have to make a PDF on the windows server and move it from the server to the mac, by mounting the HD from the Mac to the remote desk top, so it become edible in from the server. I think this is cumbersome.

  • Decryption Failed Error 4498, Microsoft Remote Desktop on Mac OSX Mavericks

    Our work server is hosted on the cloud. Every few minutes I get an error that reads: "Decryption using Standard RDP Security mechanisms failed (code DecryptFailed(4498))". I click OK, and it closes the remote desktop session.
    I re-open the session and everything is where I left off. This happens 5-10 times throughout the day and is extremely frustrating. What is the problem here?

    Here is a log that might help:

  • Remote Desktop Connection ok on work wireless but not from home

    I've succesfully logged into the Win 2003 SBS (Terminal Services) from within the wireless connection at work using Mircrosoft's "Remote Desktop Connection". However when I try to do this from home I get the following error message "Either remote connections are not enabled, the computer is too busy to accept new connections, or network problems are preventing your connection. Try connecting again later or contact your administrator."
    I've got the firewall on the mac on.
    Now what I can't work out is why it works when at work and not from home. I have been searching for ages and can't work this out - annoying as I am sure it is very simple!
    One thing I can think of is that the first time others connect via PCs they have to download the connection manager from the company web site which installs a security certificate. However this is an .exe file so cannae work on the Mac.
    Do all I need to do is ask the IT administrator to email me the certificate and drop it into the keychain?
    Thanks in advance.

    "Now what I can't work out is why it works when at work and not from home."
    Probably because, if your work is smart, they have a firewall in place, blocking external access to the ports needed for use with RDC.

  • Enabling Remote Desktop for Windows 7 as a task sequence

    Hi there.
    I have a task sequence to automate the creation of a base image of Windows 7 x64 Professional. In my base image I would like to have Remote Desktop enabled by default for all users. Is there a command or a script to do this that I can add into my task sequence to make this possible?
    Thanks.

    I have to agree except I can't understand why anyone would use anything other than the unattend.xml.  You can do all that plus so much more and it's the way Microsoft provides to do it.  This is my complete x64 unattend.xml version but I also have
    an x86 version.  This should give you some idea of it's capabilities.
    Drop the unattend.xml file into a package and reference it in the Task Sequence as shown below.  I dropped both my x86 and x64 version of the unattend.xml into the package.  I use an OSD HTA menu on the frontend to let helpdesk pick
    between x86 and x64.  I cropped the picture up a bit and took out company specific info but you should get the idea from the screen captures.  This is how I deploy x86 and x64 in a single task sequence. I mark every line with a condition in the task
    sequence with (C) which makes it easier to find lines with conditions.  I use the condition to assign x86 and x64 software among other things.  The selection in the HTA pretty much triggers everything.

  • Why would a repeating Calendar event display on both my Macs and my iPhone, but not on my iPad?

    I have accepted a repeating Calendar event invitation. It displays on both my office and home Macs and on my iPhone, but it doesn't show up on my iPad. I've checked to ensure that the proper Calendar is displaying on the iPad, and all of my other events seem to be displaying just fine. I'm stumped by this one!

  • Microsoft Remote Desktop for MAC - Insert Key

    Hi, can you please anyone tell me what combination of keys on the apple keyboard will do the INSERT function ... I tried everything like "fn + enter (works in Parallels Desktop)", etc.
    and nothing work. Thanks

    Hi,
    I’m afraid that you have to use the On-screen Keyboard as a workaround.

  • MS Remote Desktop for Mac (v8.0.9 - 8.0.12): issue with "Session (ID #) remote control failed."

    Hello,
    I'm a SysAdmin for a small-med business in CO. We use a cluster of 3 RDS servers that are load-balanced with round-robin DNS and an RD Gateway. When I remote in from a PC, all works as expected. However, when I remote in from my MacPro (my main machine at home)
    and try to remote control a user's session, I get this error: 
    Note the ID number is unique to the user's RDP session, so will vary each time. 
    This is 100% a bug in the "Microsoft Remote Desktop for Mac" program; I am positive of it at this point. 
    Does anyone from MS actually monitor these threads at all, or am I wasting my time? Thanks...

    Hi,
    As this happens with him specific from MRD MAC check whether he is taking RDP with IP address or hostname. Also try to uncheck the Option "Bypass RD Gateway for local address" under RDSH configuration and verify the result. 
    Also for more detail he can collect log from MAC side by following path.
    Microsoft Remote Desktop>About Microsoft Remote Desktop>Send log via email
    Hope it helps!
    Thanks.

  • Microsoft Remote Desktop - Works on 10.4 but not on 10.5

    I know that this is an OS 10.5 forum but the Mactopia website is useless and the forum there is non-responsive. Just wondering if anyone has any thoughts on why I'm able to connect to my office XP machine using 10.4 on an old powerbook over a wireless network but not able to connect using 10.5 on a newer iMac on the same network.
    Thoughts are appreciated.

    I've used Microsoft Remote Desktop Connection Mac OS X Client
    <http://www.microsoft.com/mac/products/remote-desktop/default.mspx>
    And I've used CoRD (Microsoft RDC Screen Sharing)
    <http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/30808>
    successfully on 10.4, 10.5, and 10.6.
    Are they the same version? And is that the latest version from Microsoft?
    I assume all other networking stuff is working OK.
    Have you tried the XP system's IP address, just in case it is a naming issue?
    Does RDC connect at all?
    Do you get the chance to login?
    How far do you get and what kind of error/failure do you see?
