Is there Remote Desktop Software for Lion?

I have been using RDC 2.1.1 to connect to my PC at work. However, after an Exchange server upgrade, it doesn't work anymore. I went looking for a newer version and could only find versions compatible with iOS devices, not computers. Then I looked at Apple discussions under RDC (which I cannot find now) and saw that someone recommended CoRD as not only free (RDC apparently now has a charge) but also better than RDC. I downloaded it but cannot figure out how to connect because it does not seem to have any input areas for usernames, passwords, etc. It's pretty darn bare. Can someone tell me what to do with it?
On another discussion, someone recommended Software Update to get a newer version of the RDC. But when I open RDC, there is no software update option. Unless the person meant Apple's software update, in which case it would have done that automatically during one of the regular updates.
I'm running the latest version of Lion on an iMac.

Microsoft Remote Desktop Connection for Mac shouldn't be affected by an Exchange server upgrade in any way. If RDC no longer connects to your work system, then your network adminstrators have probably made a change to your network, perhaps to a firewall, and you'll need to sort it out with them. RDC 2.1.1 works on my system, though I find it slower than other options for connecting to Windows systems. RDC 2.1.1 is the latest version available, by the way, and is still free.
If you want to try CoRD, though, information how to set it up can be found it it's Help files. You can also ask for help in the CoRD forum:
http://sourceforge.net/apps/phpbb/cord/viewforum.php?f=1
As to Software Update, I think either you or the other person was confused, and was referring to Apple Remote Desktop, a completely different product. You cannot update Microsoft software through Software Update in Mac OS X. n

    Hello:
    Thank you for the update for remote access for desktops.
    Personally, I do not want to give remote access to anyone but myself as privacy is my friend.  Can this remote desktop software still be for me personally unless I allow access and for my MAC lap top only?  What if I do not update? I do use this lap top in other countries.  compatibility issues with what?

    Apple Remote Desktop is off be default. It has to be enabled for some one to be able to remotely connect to the computer. And then, you still have to have a user name and password on the computer to remotely connect with.
    If you want to see if remote access has is enabled for Apple Remote Desktop; you can find the setting in, Apple Menu, System Prefrences, Sharing. If it's enabled, Remote Management or Screen Sharing will be checked.
    Beucase Apple Remote Desktop Agent is part of the Mac Operating System; even if your not using it, Apple Software Updates will from time to time offer updates for ARD Agent. Software Updates can some times be stacked ontop of each other; so chosing not to install an update, can mean other updates you may want may not be offered. At least until you install the updates those updates require. Also software updates can improve the security of your computer.

  • Is there a Blackberry Desktop Software for MAC OS 10.4.11? Or something equivalent? Help Please!

    Hello All,
    Is there a Blackberry Desktop Software for MAC OS 10.4.11?  Or something equivalent?
    I recently switched from a palm treo to blackberry but didn't anticipate syncing issues with my mac until now.  The current BB desktop software seems only compatible with MAC OS 10.5, so I'm in a difficult position.
    Please any suggestions are deeply welcomed!!
    Thank you.

  • Is there a remote desktop software included in OSX?

    I have an RDP, but I need a client to run it. Is there a remote desktop software included in OSX?
    Thanks!

    I think I've found the answer to my question. I had to download the remote client from Microsoft to access the Windows Server VM.

  • 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:

  • Desktop Software for MAC allows only two way sync

    hi...
    I want help with the Blackberry desktop software for MAc. I am able to synce my phone, however there is no way in which I can do a one-way sync  - replacing all the data on the mac with the data of the phone...
    please let me kniw if there is any way of doing that
    thanks

    Isn't it simply because of the known problem with iCloud sync enabled?
    This operation makes the address book and calendar(s) invisible to BBDM as the data files are "removed" from the Mac and put "in the cloud"...
    Several posts are documenting the problem and suggest some alternatives or work around (by disabling iCloud).
    Look on the forum for additional details.
    Please don't forget to mark as "solved" if your question is replied and to "like" a useful reply to your post ;-)

  • Sync problem with Blackberry Desktop Software for Mac

    Can someone help. I have synchronization problem with my contact in the Outlook for Mac using blackberry desktop software for mac. Seems all details in my blackberry handheld contact got synchronized, but not email addresses (so all names, jobs, companies, work phone, mobile - all got synchronized, but not email addresses). All data is in my handheld. I wish I could just "replace" (not merge/sync) outlook contact with all contact in the handheld but seems there is no option to do that. Let me know please if someone has similar experience and has found out solution. Thanks!

  • Desktop Software for OS X 10.5.8

    Have recently gotten a 9810, but the Mac software on your site requires my 10.5.8 Mac to be 10.6 or higher.
    Are there any archived versions of the Desktop Software for an older Mac system?

    Why do you need to "sync"?  Just plug the device into the usb port of your mac.  An icon of the drive will show up on the desktop. Open the SD card from the finder on your mac and highlight and drag what ever files you want.

  • 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.

  • Palm Desktop Software for Linux

    I recently purchased a Palm Centro (verizon).  I successfully sync it with Evolution (sometimes a little glitchy) via the gnome-pilot conduits.  However, I have not found a way to sync any software or to sync documents with dataviz software.  I see reports that Palm is building or has built a linux OS for their pda's.  Is this likely to be compatible with the Centro?  Is there or will there be a beta?  Is there a desktop software available for Linux?  I specifically use Ubuntu 8.10 but will upgrade to 9.04 soon.
    Post relates to: Centro (Verizon)

    The Centro will most likely be the end of the line device for Palm OS.  Palm is moving on to a different OS entirely.

  • 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.
    Thanks

    This 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.
    Regards.

  • Desktop software for Torch 9800

    Hi there
    Have downloaded the desktop software for Torch 9800 for use on new PC with Windows 8.1 and each time it synchronises (only doing calendar and contacts one way from device to PC in outlook) the desktop programe  crashes half way through.  Help please.

    Hi and Welcome to the Community!
    I've seen multiple posts from folks on Windows 8.1 having various issues. My suspicion is compatibility...refer:
    http://us.blackberry.com/software/desktop/desktop-pc/system-requirements.html
    As you can see, it states Windows 8, but not 8.1. Hence, my suspicion is that the current versions of the Desktop Software are not compatible with 8.1, and hence cannot be expected to provide proper functionality.
    Good luck!
