Cannot get USB/iPhone (or any USB device I try) to work to VM or another PC thru RDP

I am trying to use Microsoft RemoteFX USB.  I have it configured to be enabled on my laptop.  I see my iPhone in the RDP settings to share when I RDP to another PC in my network or to a VM on another PC in my network.  I check it to share. 
I connect but no joy the iPhone does not share to the computer I RDP too.  All machines/VMs are running Windows 8.1.  Besides enabling "Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Remote Desktop Services\Remote Desktop Connection
Client\RemoteFX USB Device Redirection", running gpupdate /force, and rebooting my laptop that is the only config I know I need to do.  Then off course checking the USB device (IPhone or whatever) in the RDP settings before I connect. 
This laptop does run Hyper-V and does have an external LAN connection configured.  But I can't believe that causes it to not share the USB through RDP.  I have all windows updates applied to all the machines.  I am baffled this should be
a straight forward thing but it just doesn't seem to work.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Couple of notes:
My iPhone/USB Device is connected before I  RDP
I tried Hyper-V enhanced session too
Firewalls are disabled on both the laptop and where I RDP too
I can share drives
I tried disabling sharing anything but the iPhone/USB Device (tried camera and Jawbone device too)
The iPhone/USB Device still works on the laptop when I RDP and it should not
I tried to a Windows Server 2012 R2 server and VM too still no joy

Hi,
The host you are connecting to needs to be running Enterprise edition or Server 2012/2012 R2 with Remote Desktop Session Host Role Service installed.

  • I can't get my iphone to appear under devices in itunes and i have followed the directions and support provided by apple-any suggestions?

    I can't get my iphone to appear under devices within itunes, my iphone appears as my ipod under devices therefore I am unable to sync my music etc onto my iphone. any suggestions???

    iPhone 4S and Windows XP the first thing that jumps to mind is that the iPhone 4S needs a USB 2.0 connection to sync with iTunes. Check your computers user guide to see if the PC has a compatable USB 2.0 input.

  • Cannot recognize usb device

    When i plug my Iphone 3G in to my XP Windows computer I get the error message "Cannot Recognize Usb Device" it only happens with this phone as I have a Iphone 4 and my computer recognizes it straight away.
    can anyboby help plz?

    Have you tried other USB ports? It has to be USB 2.0, the other thing you might do is reset the router and computer - by turning off computer, unplug computer and unplug router, after about 30 seconds plug them back in and turn the computer on.
    I walked 4 customers through this yesterday and it worked each time.

  • I cannot see my Iphone 4 in my device window in the finder anymore.  It use to appear so I could copy the camera pictures off of it and transfer them to other folders.  Does anyone have and idea how to get it back when you plug it in initially.  Thanks

    You will want to open iPhoto, go to the iPhoto menu and select Preferences. Under the General tab, next to Connecting camera opens: select iPhoto. Close the preferences and quit iPhoto. Reconnect your iPhone 4. iPhoto should open automatically and offer to import your pictures. Import them and then do what you want with them.
    Best of luck.

    OS X installers have always been fairly specific, hardware-wise. I haven't read anything reflecting that situation with the Recovery HD, so it may be that the Recovery HD created for the MacBook Pro does not have the necessary drivers for the Mac Pro. Obviously, nothing definitive here, but a possibility.

  • USB devices and Webcam not working or installing on Pavilion Laptop

    Hi there,
    I have a HP Pavilion Dm3 1030 sa,
    For a while now certain USB devices have just not worked on the laptop, specifically printers and mice, despite me reinstalling the drivers for those devices on the laptop. I tried the devices on other computers and they worked fine.
    This was annoying but I put up with it.
    Now the webcam and microphone have stopped working and are no longer recognised by the computer. I have reinstalled the webcam software but cannot find the drivers for it. The software (arc soft webcam) says the inbuilt webcam is not connected.
    I have been able to get my iphone to connect via usb and usb drives work most of the time. I don't really know what is going on. When I look at devices that don't work in device manager It says that there is a USB I/O error. I have tried reinstalling the drivers using device manager but that didn't work either. Any advice would be appreciated. Not being able to use a mouse is annoying as track pads are slow.

    Is my notebook in the warranty period? No (three months out)
    Is the originally installed OS still installed (Yes)
    Have I changed the partitions (NO)
    Thanks for any help

  • Cannot get my iphone 4 to connect via bluetooth to another phone or my pc

    I cannot get my iphone 4 to connect via bluetooth to another phone or my PC, despite activating bluetooth on the iphone it just says 'devices' 'searching' 'now discoverable'. I have put the 2 devices very close to each other as well.
    Anybody have any ideas?
    Thanks

    That's because it's not supported. The iPhone supports hands free devices, keyboards and A2DP audio streaming. Bluetooth can only be used to a computer for tethering. Some apps can establish peer to peer connections for gaming and data sharing, but that's it.
    What you're trying to do will NOT work.

  • Airport working with my desktop, but cannot get my Iphone to recognize base station

    Airport express, brand new, seems to be working with my desktop, just fine, and playing Itunes thru airport. However, cannot get my Iphone 5 to recognize base station. Seems to periodically work, but not consistently. Is there any setting change on the iphone that will help?

    Hi myedscape,
    Happy Holidays!  If your iPhone 5 is not consistently connecting to your new Airport Express, try these troubleshooting steps:
    iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/TS1398
    Be sure you're in range of your Wi-Fi router (access point).
    Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and turn Wi-Fi off and on. If your Wi-Fi setting is dimmed, follow these steps.
    Confirm that your Wi-Fi router and cable or DSL modem are connected to power, turned on, and connected to the Internet. If not, refer to your network administrator or Internet service provider (ISP) for assistance.
    Restart your iOS device.
    Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and locate the Wi-Fi network to which you're connected.
    Tap  and Forget this Network.
    Try to connect to your desired Wi-Fi network. 
    Note: You may need to enter your Wi-Fi password again if your network requires one.
    Turn your Wi-Fi router off and on2. If your ISP also provides cable or phone service, check with them before attempting this step to avoid interruption of service.
    Update your device to the latest version of software.
    Update your Wi-Fi router to the latest firmware2. For AirPort Base Stations, install updates using the AirPort Utility.
    Reset network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. Note: This will reset all network settings including:
    previously connected Wi-Fi networks and passwords
    recently used Bluetooth accessories
    VPN and APN settings

  • Usb composite device is an older usb device and might not work in USB 3

    I recently bought one Lenovo Yoga 2 11 laptop running Windows 8.1 (64 bit).
    When I try to connect my old Brother MFC-3240C printer using USB (2.0), it doesn’t work.
    Below are the steps performed:
    Connected the printer to USB 2.0 port on laptop (on the right side). Automatically installed the printer driver (no exclamation mark beside printer icon)
    When the printer didn’t print, I tried to use troubleshoot as below:
    Control Panel->Hardware and Sound->Devices and Printers->Right Click on Printer Icon->Troubleshoot.
    It came up with USB composite device is an older usb device and might not work in USB 3.0
    Removed the printer and re-installed the driver. It is all the same.
    Any help will be greatly appreciated.
    FYI – the same printer works fine with my older laptops running Windows 7.

    Already checked Brothers website for the printer drivre for Windows 8.1 (64 bit).
    It says ... The built-in driver is already included with Windows® Operating System or is available through Windows® update.
    So, installed the default driver for the printer that is available with Windows 8.1.
    Even connected the printer with USB 3.0 port on the laptop, but it is all the same.

  • I changed my Apple ID to a new email address. I cannot get my Iphone and Ipad to recognize the new Apple ID.

    I changed my Apple ID to a new email address.  Now I cannot get my Iphone and Ipad to recognize the new Apple ID ... and I cannot access the old Apple ID because it does not recognize its password any more ... and I cannot change the password ... and there seems to be no one to ask about this.  Any help?

    I tried but it won't let me even access the old Apple ID.  It won't recoginze its old password and will not let me make a new one. (The site tells me it has sent an email to let me change the password but the email does not come.)
