Black spots with RemoteApps using the Microsoft Remote Desktop on a mac

Hi, I'm dealing with a very strange problem with black spots while using a remoteapp. See the picture for the black spots. It's only happening when I use the MS Remote Desktop App on a mac (version 8.0.12, latest version of the appstore).
The RDS enviroment that we're using is Server 2012 R2 based with all the RD roles installed on several servers. Has someone any idea where to look? I've tried several things, LAN experience on the RD Web access disabled, new user without roaming profile,
nothing works. Sorry for the big picture...
Regards,
Michiel

  • Print Screen using new Microsoft Remote Desktop app on Mac

    I am trying to figure out how to do a screen capture of a window using the new Microsoft Remote Destkop app on my MacBook Pro.  I don't have a numeric keypad so the Ctrl+Alt+Minus on the keypad does not work.  On the older remote desktop
    client there were preferences to remap this but I cannot figure it out on the new app.  And the snipping tool is great if connected to an OS that has it.  Otherwise it does not help.
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    Please check if you have the PrtScn key on your keyboard. If so, you can use this key to capture a full screen screenshot and paste it such as MS paint.
    If you do not have the key, you can start the On-Scrren Keyboard to use the PrtScn Key within the remote session.
    Control Panel\Ease of Access\Ease of Access Center
    Hope this helps.

  • Problem connect to my office PC with Microsoft Remote Desktop from my MAC OSX 10.9.1

    When I try to connect, I get the following message "Java (TM) is required to display some items on this page"  and then a prompt to install Java, which I did already, and verified that it is running on my machine.  I have downloaded Chrome
    vs Safari for use since Safari is not compatible with Java version.  HELP!!

    Hi,
    As far as I know, Java is not required for the Microsoft Remote Desktop client for Mac.
    Please make sure that you download and install this App for the link below.

  • Downgrade Microsoft Remote Desktop Client for Mac

    Is there a way to downgrade to a previous version of the microsoft remote desktop client for mac? We are experiencing issues with one of our published remote apps (regarding window focus i.e. which window of the open application is at the front of the
    users screen) since upgrading to 8.0.9. This application was OK in 8.0.5. Can we revert to an older version?

    We are also experiencing similar issues regarding window sizes and display settings with our remote resources, since upgrading. We are using remote desktop application for iPhone/iPad. Upon opening of our Remote App, although we have set the command-line
    argument to open to full screen, we see the application resizing 3 times before it finally opens - and it does not open in full screen. Please assist.

  • Using remote desktop web access (RDWEB) with remoteapps and a traditional remote desktop

    I configured windows 2012 r2 remote desktop services and remote desktop web access (rdweb) and was able to click the icon on the rdweb page to log on to a remote desktop session. When I published a remoteapp program, the remote desktop icon went away. How
    do I get it back? Do I need to publish remote desktop as a remoteapp so users can both use remote apps and log on to a traditional remote desktop session?
    thanks in advance for the help

    Hi,
    You can just publish RDC as RemoteApp and then can connect to the desired remote desktop connection. You can check the below snap.
    Hope it helps!
    Thanks.

  • Set up microsoft remote desktop

    how do i setup preferences in microsoft remote desktop?

    Hi,
    If you mean the Windows Remote Desktop connection (mstsc.exe), you can use notepad to customize the .rdp file and distribute the customized .rdp file to your users.
    If you mean the Microsoft Remote Desktop app for Mac/IOS/Android, I’m afraid that we have no option to set the preferences.
    Thanks.

  • ARD redraw speed compared to microsoft remote desktop

    i use the microsoft remote desktop to control windows boxes at home and work. i also use ARD to control mac nodes from another mac.
    in comparison the ARD system is a SLUG. MS's application has far better performance. keep in mind i do realize that the display quality on the mac you are choosing to control can be reduced to allow better refresh but there is a huge discrepancy between the two products.
    my question is - do you all notice this as well or do i have something configured wrong. any one doing and experiencing the same thing as me?

    Hi
    There does seem to be performance differences between one VNC package and another. Strictly speaking it should not make any difference. What I have noticed is ARD runs more smoothly when internal DNS services are configured, however I am not an expert.
    'Chicken of the VNC' seems to work smoother/faster (when it does not crash!) than ARD does, but again you dont get what is available in ARD. So far I cant get Chicken of the VNC to work at all on an Intel Mac.
    There are alternatives to ARD:

    and
    http://www.redstonesoftware.com/products/vine/server/vineosx/index.html
    and also
    http://swik.net/VNC+osx
    This link explains things quite well though as well as offereing an OpenSource server and client package for download which you build yourself:
    http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/research/dtg/attarchive/vnc/start.html
    Some of the contributors to these forums have mentioned Vine. Apart from 'Chicken' and OSXvnc I dont recall mention of anything else.

  • Remote Desktop Connection for Mac - connection lost after a minute idle

    Hi There,
    I am trying to connect from a Macbook Pro to my work (XP) machine using the latest Remote Desktop Connection for Mac.
    It used to work fine, and recently it has been dropping the connection if I've not been 'active' for a minute or so.
    What is confusing is that it is not always like this. Some days, I can leave it inactive for hours over lunch etc, and I'll come back and it will be fine. And just the other day, in the morning it dropped me out ever minute or so I was inactive, and then the afternoon was fine, and the evening was troublsome again.
    Our administrators had not changed anything during that time, nor had I changed anything on my XP machine at work, or my Mac at home.
    I connect via a wireless connection.
    These problems occur when running on battery and when plugged in.
    Any thoughts?
    Thanks,
    ThreeIsles

    Since RDC is not an Apple product, you should post your question on Microsoft's own forums for their Mac version of RDC:

  • Can't connect to windows 7 machine using microsoft remote desktop connection

    I am unable to connect from my home network to the Windows 7 Professional machine at my office, using either Microsoft Remote Desktop Connection (2.1.1) for Mac or the open source CoRD program.
    When connected to the office network (which is running MS Small Business Server 2011 Standard) both CoRD and MS RDC will connect to my desktop machine just fine! (My MacBook Pro runs Mountain Lion.)
    From my home network, MS RDC will complain that it cannot find the Windows computer if I just use the Windows computer name. If I use the Windows machine's iPV4 address, it works on it for a minute and then tosses up this error message:
    Using the IP address of the Windows machine, CoRD just grinds away for a minute or so and then times out.
    I should add that using Internet Exporer under Parallels from home, I can get a little closer to success (after fidding around with ActiveX controls for a bit). I will get to the Windows login screen, but then I am told that my user password is wrong (which makes no sense at all)!
    Okay, geniuses, have at it, and thanks in advance!!

  • How can I install Microsoft Remote Desktop ActiveX Control

    I am trying to connect to my pc at work from home. This is the message I get.
    This portion of the Remote Web Workplace requires the Microsoft Remote Desktop ActiveX Control. Your browser's security settings may be preventing you from downloading ActiveX controls. Adjust these settings, and try to connect again.
    I have looked through all the add-ons available and can't find it to add on. Nor can I find a relevant security setting to change.
    I am running firefox 28.0 on Windows 7 Professional.

    ActiveX controls are specific to Internet Explorer.

  • Trying to download microsoft remote desktop and it keeps failing

    trying to download microsoft remote desktop from the app store and midway through the install, i get a message that app failed to download and to try again from purchases, that also fails.

    It happenned to me, too. I talked to apple support on the phone, and they helped me to get it download. which turned out to be a waste of my time because the microsoft remote desktop app doesn't work to begin with. even when it downloads, it will crash. it is just a buggy/ faulty program.

  • How to use the Microsoft RDP ActiveX with span or multimon options ?

    Since windows Vista, the Microsoft RDP support a /span option that allows to do remote desktop on multiple monitor.  In windows 7 and Server 2008, another option are availble to support /multimon which allows even more complex layout.  I checked the help you provided about the available parameters and the only one ou provide are these :
    geometry - the size of the client screen, WxH. To start the applet in  FullScreen mode use this paramter depending on your screen size , for eg:  'geometry=1024x768'.
    bpp - bits per pixel, 8|16|24|32
    domain - logon domain
    username - username for logon
    password - password for logon. Use with care - this value is used at  the client side, and can be observed.
    RedirectDrives - set to true to map remote drives locally
    RedirectPrinters - set to true to map remote printers locally
    FullScreen - set to true to start in FullScreen mode
    Is it possible to know if more hidden parameter can be used to do remote desktop like the "mstsc /span" command line ?
    Thanks a lot !

  • 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!
