How to find the Remote Desktop Client Version?

How to find the Remote Desktop Client Version in Lion?  I'm asking because in starting up a mid 2011 MacBook Air, I ran Software Update, which determined that Remote Desktop Client version 3.5.1 was available.  I wanted to find what the existing version (older than 3.5.1) that came with Lion was, but coudn't find it.
Thanks.

Get Info on:
/System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent
or if you have Apple Remote Desktop on an administrator system, you can see the workstation client versions by control-clicking in the header in the computer list and selecting to show the ARD version column.
Regards.

  • The Remote Desktop Client software is not active

    Hello
    I just downloaded ARD from the App store. I installed ARD Client 3.4 on the Client machines. Activated the machines in Sharing. All Users with everything checked except for "Show when being observed"
    I am able to Observe, Control, Curtain and Lock.
    I just tried to start a chat with a client and got the following error:
    Unable to Chat with “WebVantage’s iMac”. The Remote Desktop Client software is not active.
    I try to send a Message and get the following error:
    This task will fail. This task is not supported on “WebVantage’s iMac”.
    ...with the choices Continue or Go Back
    Try to run reports and it just seems to go on forever and says "Waiting for report data."
    Many of the other choices won't work either, like Sleep, Wake, etc.
    Am I missing something?
    Thank you, in advance, for your time.
    Cooch

    WOW! It's been over a month and not one reply? First time this ever happened.
    I am finding that I cannot lock the other Macs now. I get:
    "This task will fail. This task is not supported on “XXXXX’s iMac”."
    Anyone?

  • Specifying port in Remote Desktop Client Version 2.0

    Hi,
    I have a windows PC behind a router that I am trying to remote desktop to from my iMac. I am using the remote desktop client v2.o which I have downloaded from http://www.microsoft.com/mac/downloads.mspx?pid=Mactopia_RDC&fid=803F9438-8DF3-4 90F-92C6-0E0F92787DB8#viewer
    As I am port forwarding on the router to the PC's private IP address, I need to be able to hit port 4000 on the router. When I type in the <hostname>:4000 on the iMac's remote desktop client, it does not like the port number. Would anyone know how I can establish a connection to a port other than 3389 using the Remote Desktop Client from my iMac?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hello BH,
    Thank you for replying and posting the link you did. I would not like to change the listening port on the server side. From the remote desktop client, I would like to change the port that it makes a connection to. By default, if you type in a hostname, the client connects to port 3389. I would like it to establish a connection with port 4000 of the server.
    Please let me know if you have any recommendations on how to do this. Thanks.

  • Missing "sharing" option in system preferences after installing apple remote desktop client version 2.10

    Hi All,
    I installed a wrong version of Apple remote desktop client , 2.10 and the sharing menu under system preferences vanished. I tried to uninstall the Apple remote desktop with,
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2577
    but no luck, but after restarting the macbook pro with lion 10.7.2, i see my sharing option enabled but when clicked, it says the system preference has to restart and confirming that it restarts in 32 bit mode and even after clciking the sharing option it says, "you can't open sharing preferences because it doesn't work on an intel-based mac"
    . So i strongly believe the apple remote desktop is creating the issue.
    Can someone help how to fix this please?
    Thanks

    Same problem here. I manage several remote Macs, but I have one MacBook which I can get no ARD access to (black icon). I can ping the IP, I can SSH into the MacBook, the ARD and Remote Login services are checked ON, the firewall is OFF. The ARD service is configured to allow my admin user full access - however, I get nothing. I have no trouble getting into the other Macs.
    Any ideas?

  • Since the Remote desktop client update 3.8.2 V1.1 my Indesign CS4 crashes when I try to print. Does anyone else have this problem?

    Problem with remote desktop client update

    I find it interesting that since Screen Sharing is available, and works "just fine" that a Remote Desktop Client would be needed to be installed.
    I installed it, but I'm not sure why.
    I found the updated application in /System/Library/Core Services/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent
    Which is also where the screen sharing and vnc bundles live.  I clicked on it to see what would happen -- nothing.
    I found these ports in another discussion
    TCP and UDP port 3283
    TCP and UDP port 5900.  (Also used for Screen Sharing in OSX 10.5 and later)
    port 22
    This page confirms their use along with the use of other ports:
    TCP and UDP ports used by Apple software products - Apple Support
    Additionally TCP port 5432 is used by ARD
    Having recently noticed (through "network utility" that my computers have had a "ton" of open connections.
    This severely hurt system performance.
    I note that neither my Airport Express nor my Mac can set up a firewall on these ports.
    While I haven't noticed the ARD ports being used, I cannot help but wonder if this is set up for a CIA/NSA backdoor into my computers.
    On a less paranoid level, perhaps Apple is planning on adding on-line help to debug our problems in "real-time".  ;-)

  • How to install the Remote Desktop Services role on a Windows 2012 R2 Server

    Hello,
    I am a bit confused on how to install the RDP role on a 2012 R2 server. I have a two server domain and would like to make the second member server an RDP server to host applications (Word, Excel, a medical software, etc.) where users from their windows
    7 desktop will use the Remote Desktop Connection to connect to the server, create a session and do their work. When installing the role, I am prompted with two options:
    1- Role-based or feature based installation
    2- Remote Desktop services installation
    I see the RDP install option in both cases.
    1- Which one do I use?
    2- What role services do I install? (Connection broker, Gateway, Licensing, Session Host, Virtualization host and Web access). I think I need the first four only.
    3- When installing software after RDP, I use the Change user /install and Change user /execute commands. What happens to the software that is already installed? Can remote
    users use those?
    Any help will be very much appreciated.
    Thank You,
    Victor.

    TP,
    Thank you for your response. I added the RD Licensing thru the Role-based option.
    Also opened the local group policy thru gpedit.msc and added the server name and the licensing mode type to Computer Configuration -> Administrative Templates -> Windows Components -> Remote Desktop Services -> Remote Desktop Session
    Host -> Licensing
    Use the specified RD license servers = NameOfMyServer
    Set the Remote Desktop licensing mode = TypeOfMyLicense (Per User in my case)
    Thank you again,
    Victor

  • How to capture the remot desktop using RMI?

    Hi friends..
    I am doing a mini project to capture the remot desktop using RMI. I am very new with this subject. So 'm waiting for the help of experts...

    You can't. RMI doesn't do that. After you have captured it, some other way, you can transmit it via RMI, or plain Sockets, or several other ways.

  • How to find "the remote button" in iTunes 11

    I spent about 20 minutes trying to figure out how to re-connect my iPhone Remote app to my computer, so hopefully I can save some people some time:
    When you open the app and try to re-connect your iTunes library, it will give you a code, and some bizarre directions. 
    (If you have not done so already, go to "View" on the top bar, then "Show Sidebar")
    On the sidebar, you will see 'DEVICES' as category. 
    **Click the little icon next to your device, and enter the code***

    Like everyone else here, I have spent hours trying to figure this out, looking for the Devices category in the Sidebar and then Remote.  Nothing worked, until I finally figured it out.  I think this method is foolproof...:-)
    1. Open iTunes and make sure it is connected to your home network.
    2. Go to "View" on the top bar and then "Show Sidebar".  You should see Music, Films, etc, BUT YOU WILL NOT SEE ANY 'DEVICES', not just yet.
    3. Now, go to your iPad/iPhone, make sure it is connected to the SAME home network.  Open the Remote app on your iPad/iPhone. 
    4. Go to 'Add an iTunes Library'.  You will get a four-digit code
    5. Now, look at the sidebar.  Now suddenly you will you see your iPad, under the newly-appeared 'Device' category, listed as "(Name's) iPad"
    6. Click on this new iPad icon in the sidebar.  Four boxes appear in iTunes for you to enter the code from the iPad
    Done!
    The mystery is that your iPad/iPhone does not appear in Devices UNTIL you 'ping' iTunes requesting to control it remotely.
    I also had firewall problems with McAffee.  If the above doesn't work, TURN OFF all your firewalls and try again.  If that solves the problem, you need to open a port on Mcaffee for access from devices on your network.

  • What exactly is the Remote Desktop Client Update

    ?

    If you're not being managed by another Mac that has ARD, then you don't need the client update. If you plan on managing other Macs with ARD then you need to buy the admin software.

  • I am having trouble installing and using remote desktop client and admin on the same imac.  I need help?

    Can you give me a step by step on getting the client and the admin part of remote desktop to work?  I am new to this and I need for remote desktop to work to install the Faronics Deepfreeze enterprise console on the new imac in office.  The OSx version is 10.8.3  Any help will be greatly appreciated.  Also, when I go to install the admin, it says that the remote desktop client is not updated and I cant get mac app store to show any updates.  May be doing something wrong.

    This is what I usualy do to setup ARDclient on a client computer.
    on the client computer
    go to menu bar (white bar at top of the screen)
    click on the apple menu
    chose system preferences
    click show all button
    click Users & Groups
    click the lock to unlock
    click + to create a new account
    chose new account: type "administrator"
    name the user some thing applicable like "ARDuser"
    set a secure password
    click create account
    click show all button
    click sharing
    set the computer name to some thing descritpive that identifies the computer
    check remote login
    click on remote login
    set allow access for: "only these users"
    click the +
    chose the ARDuser from the list
    click select
    check remote management
    click on remote management
    set allow access to "only these users"
    click the +
    select the ARDuser from the list
    click select
    check: observe, control, genereate reports, open & quite applications, delete and replace items, start text chat or send messages, restart & shutdown, copy items
    click ok
    click the lock to lock system preferences
    click show all
    quite system preferences
    At this point you should be able to connect to the client using Apple Remote Desktop using the ARDuser setup above. Make sure the client and the ARD computer are on the same network the same way. IE both on ethernet or both on wifi. On the same internet conenction, if your were trying to conenct to a client over the internet there is more involved. 
    on the ard computer:
    open apple remote desktop
    from the left column select discover
    make sure the list is set to bonjour
    the client computer should show up on the list, with the name set above
    select the client from the list
    click control
    you will be prompted for the user/pass to log into the computer. that's the ARDuser setup in the steps above.
