BI Publisher Desktop install on Windows remote desktop
Hi all,
Is there any way to install BI Publisher Desktop on windows remote desktop (terminal services)?
If I install this currently as one user, the other user can not access (despite having all the correct security settings). The real issue is I think with MS Office because the Add-in is not seen by other users. But I have no idea how to go about solving this issue.
Thanks.
Px.
There is an Oracle support document [468953.1] that suggests that each user run the installer on a shared machine. This advice doesn't actually work as the second user who attempts to install it on a machine will only be presented with the option to uninstall it.
Just today with the help of ProcessMonitor I have figured out how to deliver it to all users. Note that my setup is Office 2003. The below instructions may need alteration for other versions or may not work at all.
After you have installed BI Publisher Desktop copy the TemplateBuilder.dot file found in:
C:\Documents and Settings\[installing_user_name]\Application Data\Microsoft\Word\STARTUP
to
C:\program files\microsoft office\OFFICE11\STARTUP
This will cause the TemplateBuilder word template to launch at startup for all users and deliver the "Oracle BI Publisher" menu item and BIP toolbar.
Hope this helps. If you are using a version of Word other than 2003 and need to modify the procedure please post any required changes on this thread. I would like to assemble a procedure for all supported versions of Word.

Cannot log onto windows remote desktop
How can I log into my office's windows remote desktop. I am very new to the Mac and need some help with this. I have downloaded and installed the Windows Remote Desktop Connection, but i dont know how to use it. Do I need to have a different program to get online and not use Safari.
Please keep it simple, I am not a programer, just a program user.I USE REMOTE DESKTOP TO CONNECT TO A WINDOWS SERVER AT WORK. YOU MUST OBTAIN THE IP ADDRESS OF THE SERVER AND PUT THAT IP ADDRESS INTO THE RDC WHERE IT ASKS COMPUTER. YOU WILL ALSO NEED THE NETWORK USERNAME AND PASSWORD TO GET ON THE SERVER AT WORK. I ALSO BELIEVE THE SERVER AT WORK NEEDS TO BE SET TUP TO ACCEPT REMOTE CONNECTIONS.

How to recognize if application is installed using "Install application on remote desktop..." option in Control Panel in Windows Server 2008 R2?
Basically, as administrator, I can't say if the user installed application using "Install application on remote desktop..." in Control Panel or he just installed it by clicking the .msi executable. I can't find anything that makes any difference.
I could not find anything in the registry. I am quite confused.
Thanks,
Aleksandar9Hi,
Thank you for your posting in Windows Server Forum.
Please make sure that you are using category view of control panel-programs to check the application. And in addition to “install application on Remote Desktop server” user can also use command line also.
change user /install
change user /execute
change user /query
“The first time you run the application, it searches the home directory for its .ini files. If the .ini files are not found in the home directory, but are found in the system directory, Terminal Services copies the .ini files to the home directory, ensuring
that each user has a unique copy of the application .ini files. Each user should have a unique copy of the .ini files for an application. This prevents instances where different users might have incompatible application configurations.” (Quoted formthis
article).
Hope it helps!
Thanks,

Can Photoshop CS4 be deployed on Windows remote desktop server?
I tried installing Photoshop extended CS4 on a Windows Remote Desktop server (Windows 2008 R2 64bit) and it said it requires at least Windows XP or Vista 64bit as the OS requirement. I can either continue or quit. Can someone verify if this product can be deployed in RDS enviroment?
ThanksMark:
Thanks for the input. It worked. Interestingly, I first tried installing CS5 but the install just stopped. I then tried CS4 and it installed without trouble. For CS5, I have a downloaded copy of the software; for CS4, I have an actual physical DVD. I may explore this issue further at some later point. For now, having CS4 run is quite sufficient for testing and evaluation.
I realize that using thin clients will impose some amount of performance penalty, but my expectation is that the overall performance will be acceptable for most user tasks most of the time. I take it from your post this has been your experience. I will still provide a stand-alone machine for the small number of projects where the application is taxing the limits of the computer, and any limitations imposed by Remote Desktop are not acceptable.
Certainly, the software needs to be properly licensed, which Adobe is more than happy to provide. Through the thin client approach I hope to eliminate the maintenance and management headache of maintaining multiple, essentially identical, machines. And, I hope to reduce (by some small percentage) power costs.
We'll see how it goes...

Windows XP right?
Then you need to install this patch before installing ZCM agent: An application that installs a mirror driver over a Terminal Services session may stop responding on a Windows XP-based computer

I want to be able to print using windows remote desktop services what printers can i use?
Hi I want to use Windows Remote Desktop Services on my iMAC.
I understand some printers work but some dont when printing from the VDI client.
Can anyone give me a list of printers that will work with the VDI client or some work arounds so that I can print using my iMAC and that print jobs can be parsed through the VDI clien to my iMAC and then printed through the iMACs connection to the printer
ThankyouARD won't be as smooth as you think over the Internet and be a security risk for your daughter.
Your best bet would be to install nannyware, then when she's asleep you can review the logs.
This is the best and Mac friendly

Outlook Sync issue when connecting to server/Outlook via Windows Remote Desktop
I hope someone can help...I connect to my email etc (Outlook that lives on server) via Windows Remote Desktop. The server keeps my email updated automatically between my BB8330 and Outlook. However it does not keep Calendar, Contacts etc updated. I want to be able to "SYNC" in this scenario without loading any software on the server as the BOSS won't allow that. I really want to keep it simple so I actually do it regularly.
PS I need to say that I think I am looking for a Work Around
Message Edited by Newpoint_2 on 06-25-2009 11:35 AMnot possible to do sync through remote desktop, unless you install DTM on the server and plug the BBinto server and remote to server and tell it to sync... which wou.ld defeat the purpose.
if you are the only BB user and you have exchange you can install BES pro for free(only free for 1 user) which will send everything wirelessly -

Unable to connect to my home PC from my home Mac using Windows Remote Desktop
i have downloaded from the Microsoft website and also the Application from the App store and both fail to connect. i have connected to my PC using the migration assistant so they are able to recognise each other.
on the Mac:
- downloaded the app and also done the download from MS website - both fail and suggest to check that remote access is enabled.
on the PC:
- have my Ipaddress from "IPConfig"
- have enabled remote access through windows firewall
The PC is on and has a password enabled
Error on App:
"Unable to connect to remote PC. Please verify remote desktop is enabled, the remote pc is turned on and available on the network and try again"
both are connected to the internet and on the same home network. Can anyone please advise to any additional steps as this seems as though this should be really straightforward. as another note i don't have another firewall software interrupting - am just
using windows firewall until i can get this working.Hi,

Sharing local devices with remote computers like in Windows Remote Desktop
Morning all,
I'm attempting to access my local machine's CD drive on the remote computer across Apple Remote Desktop. It's ubiquitously possible even in the Windows Remote Desktop Client for OS X but for the life of me can't figure out how to share my drive over the network with a remote client.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
ThanksBy Remote Desktop, I literally meant from the remote computer. So let me rephrase..
After I've enabled CD/DVD sharing, while I'm in Apple Remote Desktop controlling the remote computer, can I access my CD/DVD drive remotely?
Or to be even clearer, could a remote user on that machine access my CD/DVD drive and how? -
Windows Remote Desktop (Mac)
Hello:
I'm trying to use Windows Remote Desktop (Mac) to connect from a Mac (OSX 10.9.5) to a pc (Windows 7 Pro). When both laptops are on the same network I can connect without issue (using the destination pc's IP4 address). However, when they are not on the same
network I get the error message below* (I use the ISP-provided IP address for this connection). I made sure the ISP router port forwarding settings had the open/end ports (which I got from running the necessary CMDs from my destination pc's dos prompt). I
made sure the destination pc firewall settings allowed Remote Desktop connections (public, domain, home/work). What could I be missing? Thanks!
*Error message:
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.Hi Andy,
Which version of MRD MAC you are using for your case?
Please use the latest MRD v 8.0.15 and verify.
As you have commented, you check every network scenario. Suggest again to recheck the related setting for IP address, firewall, port, user permission access and other things. You can also refer beneath article for information.

Customizing single user connection via Windows remote desktop
Hi,
I would like to know if its possible to configure Windows Remote Desktop in a way that if a user is already logged on to a particular computer and another user tries logging in, an error message appears on the screen saying that a user is already
logged on.
I can limit the number of connections to 1 via:
Local Group Policy Editor > Admin Templates > Remote Desktop Services > Remote Desktop Session Host > Connections
However, with this option, the error message that comes up on the screen is the following:
'This computer cant connect to the remote computer, try again or contact the network administrator'.
Is it possible to configure this in a way to let users know why they cant login so they don't think its an IT fault?
We are using Windows 7 on both the clients and the host.
Any advice would be much appreciated..
Thanks,
SeemaHi Milos,
No its not a server operating system.
The PC that we are connecting to is running Windows 7.
We are connecting to it using Windows Remote Desktop.
Thanks,
Seema
Hi Seema,
As Licensing agreement said, for Windows 7, you can only has one connection on this PC via RDP.
If another user wants to connect this PC via RDP, he will be notified you another user who has already logged in.

Windows Remote Desktop Assistant for installation of Portal 7.0
Hi
Can I use Windows Remote Desktop Assistant for installation of NW04s (Portal 7.0) on a Windows Server 2003 (x64)?
SAP recommended earlier not to use the same. But, not aware of any such guidelines now.
I appreciate your views on the same.
Regards
ChanduThe only errors that I've encountered when performing installs over remote desktop were to do with the Oracle installer not finishing correctly. This was particularly evident in oracle 9.2 and I have had no issues with 10g as yet.
