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.

Remote Desktop Client for Mac and SSO
Hi.
We have RDS Deployment (Windows Server 2012 R2) with RD Connection Brokers, RD Session Hosts and Web Access.
Windows clients log on without any issues, credentials must be entered only once (Single Sign On).
But Mac clients must enter their credentials twice (on CB and SH).
Does Remote Desktop Client for Mac support SSO and if it does, what special settings are required?
Mac users use Microsoft Remote Desktop 8.0.13.Sorry, I have missed important detail. This problem appears when I open .rdp files.
Really, if I create connection and save my credentials, I will not enter credentials. But in this case I can't specify Collection
(loadbalanceinfo:s:tsv://MS Terminal Services Plugin.1.SomeCollection - parameter in .rpd file).
In my case, I open .rdp file, connect to RD Connection Broker, log in to RD CB, RD CB redirects me to RD
Session Host, I log in to RD SH (enter credential second time) and now I connect. In this chain could be a RD Gateway.
When I connect to the same farm with the same .rdp file from Windows client, I have enter credential only once (SSO works).
So my question: Does Remote
Desktop Client for Mac support SSO? I know that SSO require CredSSP, is it implemented in Client for Mac? -
Remote Desktop Client For Mac?
Hi! I wanted to get the remote desktop client by MS onto my iBook g4. I am running leopard, and the webpage says it is a universal application, but when I download the .DMG the Installer application comes up and tells me I need an Intel Processor. Anybody know what's going on here? And does anyone know if the 1.0.3 version will run under Leopard? If it does, would I need to download stuffit expander and Apple Disc Copy like it says, or is that built into Disk utility at this point? And would I need to download the .bin or the .hqx files? Thanks, any help will be appreciated!

Remote Desktop Client for MAC Broken Pipe! message
Hi there,
One of our clients uses Remote Desktop for MAC. One in a while he gets the message "Broken pipe!". His session has been lost.
I could not find or reproduce the same error. It looks like a connection problem, but this specific message must mean something.
Is there anyone who can explain this explicit error message?
I have not seen the message myself. The only thing I know is it contains "Broken pipe!"Hi,
I have never seen this error before. The only thing I know about the word “Pipe” is related to SQL Server.

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!!
CDrHi,
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.

TS2072 Remote Desktop Client for MS Windows Server 2003
I need to be able to access my work server to obtain information form our Windows 2003 Server. We have our product prices and other information on servers and today I use the remote desktop client that comes with Windows 7. I was hoping to find a suitable solution to allow me to use my macbook pro with OSX 10.7.4 Software. Does anyone know how to use OSX to make a remote desktop connection as you would through windows 7. I've seen CoRD and Microsoft did have a version but it's for older versions of OSX. I could run W7 but then I would have to purcase another copy and VM if I decided to run it virtual.
ThanksThis is not an Apple Remote Desktop issue - ARD is Apple's software for managing networked Macs - but CoRD and Microsoft Remote Desktop Connection for Mac should both work with Windows 2003 and both work on Mac OS X 10.7; I have used both on my systems. iTap Mobile RDP is another option, and the one I use daily since I've found it to be faster than either CoRD or Microsoft RDC, though iTap is not free.

Remote desktop client for Android
Dear sir,
Does Microsoft remote desktop client for Android support RDP 7.0 with remote FX.
Using this client can I connect to Remote App publish under remote desktop service in windows server 2012.
In a client device do we need anything else, other than Android 4.0 or above and Microsoft remote desktop client for Android (free) to connect to remote desktop service under windows server 2012.
Thanks

Yes, the Remote Desktop client supports RDP 7.1 and all previous versions including: RDP 7, RDP 6.1, RDP 6, RDP 5 and RDP 4.
Note: Support for a specific version of RDP 7 does not include all virtual channels. RemoteFX codecs are not supported in RDP 7.1.

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

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!
RichardHi,
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.

Hope this helps.

MS Remote Desktop Connection for Mac: Capslock Key
I've started having an issue with the Mac RDP client where when I switch away from a full screen remoted windows machine to another space, then back to the windows machine, the windows machine believes the Caps Lock key is active.
I have to switch back to another space, activate the caps lock key, switch back, then deactivate in order to turn caps lock off.
This was not always the case. It started doing this a few months back, but it does it now 4 out of 5 times.
Has anyone else experienced this? Any idea how to fix?
R,
DanYes, i have the same problem and it's totally annoying
I found a workaround - when the Caps Lock turns on in Windows, start your on-screen keyboard and turn it off and then close the on-screen keyboard by double clicking on the upper right corner icon (otherwise the remote desktop hangs). Hope someone finds a solution for the Caps Lock problem... -
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...

Remote Desktop Connection for Mac to Windows - logout error
Hello
I'm trying to use Remote Desktop Connection (RDC) to get from my Mac into a MacMini running Windows XP Professional. I can log into the Windows computer, but once I put in my password and click OK, it logs out of the Windows machine. Is there some sort of sharing preference or configuration that I'm missing that's making this happen?
I want to be able to use RDC to access the Windows machine and keep everything up still on the Windows machine.
ThanksSince RDC is not an Apple product, you'll probably want to use a forum dedicated to Microsoft's Mac products such as <http://www.microsoft.com/mac/community/community.aspx?pid=newsgroups> rather than an Apple forum
Be sure to search the forum first in case someone has already had a similar question answered.
