Can Thunderbird and Lightning be installed and used as a Windows Server 8 r2 remote desktop application.

Can Thunderbird and Lightning be successfully installed as a remote desktop (terminal server) application on Windows Server 8 r2? In this scenario, users would access Thunderbird and Lightning via Windows (or Linux or Mac) remote desktop connection. Each user has there own home folder and profile on remote desktop server. I want to make sure that an individual user will be able to maintain individual email accounts, folders, settings, etc. as if Thunderbird and Lightning were installed on a stand alone PC. Any tips or things to watch out for in this scenario would be helpful.

There appears to be a problem with Firefox 20 with UNC paths when using roaming profiles on a server.
This is currently investigated and tracked via this bug report.

  • After MS13-098 and SecurityAdvisory(2915720), Windows Server 2003 Remote Desktop(TermService) cannot start service

    I have trouble with Windows Server 2003 R2 Standard. I installed the KB2893294(MS13-098) patch, and I changed the registry that is suggested actions of Security Advisory(2915720) http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/security/advisory/2915720
    Suggested Actions:
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Cryptography\Wintrust\Config]
    "EnableCertPaddingCheck"="1"
    After rebooting the event viewer(system) says:
     Event Type: Error
     Event Source: TermService
     Event Category: None
     Event ID: 1014
     User:  N/A
     Description:
     Cannot load illegal module: C:\Windows\system32\rdpwsx.DLL
    After I cannot use Remote Desktop Connection from other client.
    So I check the all security patches and other hotfixies. I checked the KB2653956 and KB958476.
    But TermService do not recover the error.
    And then, I delete the "EnableCertPaddingCheck" registry and reboot systems.
    TermService have no error. I can use Remote Desktop Connection from other client.
    After KB2893294 installed, Remote Desktop Connection cannot use from other client that "EnableCertPaddingCheck" registry set to "1".
    Other Windows Server 2008 systems do not effect the KB2893294 patch. But All Windows Server 2003 systems cannot use the Remote Desktop Connections after the KB2893294 patch.

    Update on this issue:
    The debug team has accepted the issue and has identified it as a regression.  Right now they're targeting *June* as the release date for a fix.  I'm attempting to educate them that customers don't just install patches the day (or even month) they're
    released and that the fix needs to be moved up in priority to give a minimum of 60 days to install the patch before the time-bomb explodes.
    In the meantime, a workaround has been provided that will turn off the new functionality.  Note that I have not yet had a chance to test this.  It entails creating a new DWORD registry entry--UseLegacyPE--and setting it to 1.
    HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ImageHlp\UseLegacyPE
    I will update this thread when I have further information.

  • I bought the Keynote app for my MacBook, but when I open the application and try to install it, I get an error message saying that the application will not work with my MacBook. What gives? And, can I please request a refund? ($19.99 = a week's groceries)

    I bought the Keynote app for my MacBook, but when I open the application and try to install it, I get an error message saying that the application will not work with my MacBook. What gives? And, can I please request a refund? ($19.99 = a week's groceries).
    Thank you for your help! - I did try looking for all available specs about Keynote on the Apple iTunes website, and found nothing that could help me. HELP!

    1
    Close all iWork applications
    2
    Uninstall Keynote; this must be done with an application remover tool to delete the installation properly. Appcleaner is known to work correctly for this purpose, it is free and can be downloaded from here: Appcleaner Download
    3
    empty the trash
    4
    shutdown the Mac and restart. After the start up chime, hold down the shift key until the apple logo appears
    let the Mac complete the start up procedure completely, it will take longer than usual as the hard drive is being repaired
    5
    Reinstall Keynote by logging into the Mac App Store using download / install

  • My ipad will not sync or back-up and thus cannot install OS5, it starts fine, but then says "cannot verify applications" and stops sync.  Can someone help me?

    my ipad will not sync or back-up and thus cannot install OS5, it starts fine, but then says "cannot verify applications" and stops sync.  Can someone help me?

    going to "transfer purchases' does work - however the thermometer bar at the bottom reflecting apps, music, video, book, etc cpapcity fraks out, sliding left to right maybe 4 or 5 times during the process.  Have you ever seen this?
    After it is finished, the SYNC button is not longer darkened - so I thought it was safe to attampt an upgrade to OS05... which i am doing now... takes maybe 20 mins and then I normally get the error "the applications on this ipad cannot be verified" and the bottom thermometer bar zeros out all by my music.  The content and apps are all fine on teh ipad.  so strange.  I made an appointment with customer service tomrrow AM - but i do not think i should have to pay for this - i have never even used support before!
    I will update if it works - or re[eats the strange pattern again and does not update.
    Thanks for your time and help!

    Will iTunes open in safe mode? Hold down CTRL+SHIFT as, or immediately after, you click the icon that starts iTunes and keep holding until you see this prompt.
    Click Continue.
    Assuming iTunes has opened, enable the menu bar, if necessary, with CTRL+B. Then go to Edit > Preferences > Store and untick Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases. Press OK, close iTunes, wait until it has had a chance to fully close then reopen.
    Will iTunes open normally now?
    If not, see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates for genral advice.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

  • My new 8th gen iPod nano is 'not recognized' by my computer. My computer runs on Windows 7, and I've installed and updated the latest versions of itunes etc, but still to no avail! I've tried different usb ports, troubleshooting...

    My computer runs on Windows 7, and I've installed and updated the latest versions of itunes etc, but still to no avail! I've tried different usb ports, troubleshooting, etc... But it still says "One of the USB decuces arrached to this omputer has malfunctioned and windows does not recognize it".
    The iPod is brand new, sent to me by Apple as part of the 1st gen replacement programme. I've been using the cable that came with the 1st gen iPod (I bought the first gen second hand) It always worked on my computer with the 1st gen iPod. So I was wondering, do you think I need to replace my cable in order for my PC to recognize my iPod or is it something else?
    Thanks

    Try a different cable. And are you connecting directly to your computer or through a USB hub?

    Hello William.
    Try downloading the installer again. You can get the latest stable official release for free at [http://www.getfirefox.com getfirefox.com]. Then try again.
    Also, make sure your Firewall is not hindering Firefox's installation process.

  • TS3694 I am unable to restore my iPhone4, I have iOS6 and latest iTunes installed  and when trying to sync or back up it comes up with Error −54. How or what do I do to fix this?

    I am unable to restore my iPhone4, I have iOS6 and latest iTunes installed  and when trying to sync or back up it comes up with Error −54. How or what do I do to fix this?

    == Error -54 ==
    From an OS9 reference, error -54 is a software lock on a file or a permissions error. (Some of the old codes still apply to OSX although there is no formal list of OSX error codes.)
    First, try simply restarting your computer.
    iTunes Library cannot be saved (Error -54) - https://discussions.apple.com/thread/1912814
    Unknown error (-54) while syncing ipod - https://discussions.apple.com/thread/1082953 - problem was locked files
    Why does iTunes keep showing a -54 error when I sync my iPad? - https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3727114
    Error -54 possibly related to Touch Copy - https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3727114 - cleared by deleting preferences on iPad.

  • Questions in regards to server 2012R2 Remote desktop Service deployment and GPO

    Hi Everyone
    We have a business requirement moving to 2012R2 RDSH server. I have installed a 2012R2 member servers and enabled Remote desktop licensing role. I have activated the licenses. the servers is in operational
    I have deployed 3 windows 2012R2 member server "RDS1" , "RDS2" and "RDS3".
    on RDS1 I ran Add roles and Feature Wizard > Remote Desktop Services installation > Quick Start >Session based desktop deployment to complete the installation.
    On RDS1 Server Manage Dashboard Page Select Remote Desktop Services > Overview. Under RD Licensing I added my 2012R2 license server "2012r2-tslic". Go to task. Edit deployment properties RD license mode to per device and click OK.
    Reboot RDS1
    Check RD Licensing Diagnoser everything is clear
    On RDS2 I did the exact same thing ran Add roles and Feature Wizard > Remote Desktop Services installation > Quick Start >Session based desktop deployment to complete the installation. 
    But With RDS2 I move this server to an OU that link to a GPO with RD licensing details. after reboot the servers check RD Licensing Diagnoser I can see 2012r2-tslic specified as the license servers.  
    Based on this document
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/askperf/archive/2013/09/20/rd-licensing-configuration-on-windows-server-2012.aspx  Are you suppose to configure RD license server via Remote desktop Service deployment ? Not GPO ?
    Here are my questions
    We currently have ten 2008r2 terminal servers in a NLB cluster. each RDSH server have in house application installed on each one of them. User connect to the 2008R2 RDSH servers via RDP connection. we have a restricted GPO apply to those
    RDSH servers. user cannot do anything on RDSH servers apart from running the application and use excel.  On the remote desktop session host configuration we have enable settings like end a disconnected session , Active session limit  ,
    remote control users session , LPT port redirection.
    We push out RD license server detail via GPO to the terminal servers
    Can I use our existing GPO apply the licensing server settings , desktop restriction setting to the 2012R2 RDHS servers or we should be using Remote desktop Service deployment to do the job ? If that is the case how would you transfer the
    current 2008r2 environment to 2012 using Remote desktop Service deployment. is that mean I have to manually configure 1 by 1.
    Please help
    Many thanks

    Hi,
    Please see my response to you in the other thread.  Please contact me via email and I will go over the basic planning and deployment steps with you which will help clear things up and get you started off on the right foot.
    You should only run through the wizard and create a RDS deployment once.  Then you add the various servers (RDSH, RD Licensing, RD Gateway, etc), set Deployment properties, etc.
    Thanks.
    -TP
