Possible to login into Win7 machine via Remote Desktop?

hey guys, i've been trying to find a solution to be able to write to NTFS drives. i've read that using exFAT is a good way to go. the other thing i wanted to try was to login to a Windows machine that's connected to the NTFS drive and write to it that way. how can i do this?
thanks

If you want to write to the NTFS drive via the Windows system, then you want to have Windows share the drive, so that you can use Mac OS X:
Finder -> Go -> Connect to Server -> smb://windows.machine.address/share_name
This would mount the shared NTFS file system on your Mac OS X system and allow you to read and write to it.
If you need to access the Windows Desktop, then use the above mentioned Microsoft RDC software, or download CoRD from MacUpdate.com. Both good Windows Remote Desktop Clients.

Do you have to be logged into test agent via remote desktop for tests to run

Hi
I have some coded UI tests now working and they successfully run in my test agent. However they don't run if you don't have remote desktop open and you are not logged into the test agent itself with the desktop active.
Error was:
Automation engine is unable to playback the test because it is not able to interact with the desktop. This could happen if the computer running the test is locked or it’s remote session window is minimized.
Any ideas how to get round this?
Kind regards
Rob

Hi Rob,
>>Automation engine is unable to playback the test because it is not able to interact with the desktop. This could happen if the computer running the test is locked or it’s remote session window is minimized.
This is by Design as for Playback an Active session is needed as in coded UI tests we do actual Mouse and Keyboard actions.
Like Vishnu's suggestion in this blog:
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/vishnus_blog/archive/2013/05/05/coded-ui-test-not-able-to-interact-with-the-desktop.aspx
For the UI tests, the active desktop session has to be opened. We have faced this issue and we have couple of solutions
1. Open a Hyper-V session onto the machine where the UI Tests are running. You can minimize the hyper-V window and the tests will still run fine.
2. If you are running tests in a Lab Environment created from Microsoft Test Manager, Run the tests and open LEViewer[Lab Environment Viewer] to keep the desktop session active.
3. Enable AutoLogon on the machine where the tests are running and restart the machine. Then you don't need to do remote desktop -

Why will Firefox will not open when connecting via Remote Desktop?

I have Firefox v. 6.0 or 7.0 installed on a Win 7 machine. It works fine locally, but when I connect to the machine via Remote Desktop it will not start.

Make sure that the pref dom.storage.enabled is set to true on the about:config page.

Time machine is invisible but working via remote desktop - magic

Hello,
Time Machine is backing up properly an external firewire-disk of the server and the internal drive. If I run time machine on the server and restore the external volume - or internal volumes - time machine works but stays invisible. The finder window moves and resizes, the screen seems to be frozen - but it´s time machine invisibly running and I cannot see the stars and the space nor the buttons. But I can click them - I can abort time machine and get back to the finder. I also could try to find the place to click to scroll through time and change the windows´ content. I think I could also restore a file successfully but I did not try. But I cannot see time machine. It worked before I updated to 10.5.3 I think. It´s not the screen resolution in Apple Remote Desktop. And I cannot test the Macmini with a screen because it has no screen - it only is accessable via Remote desktop. It seems to me that the remote desktop client on the server does not send screen data of time machine.
What can I do?
Thank you.

Hello,
I made some more tests. I plugged a Screen adaptor for the TV at the mac mini to have a screen attached. The resolution in remote desktop was PAL and very small but time machine was working and it showed up well.
The result is that time machine needs a monitor to run properly or is it Remote Desktop that needs a monitor? The macmini is brand new and leopard server is 10.5.4.
Are there some ideas to solve this issue.
Thank you.
Best regards

PE on server via remote desktop?

Hi there,
We're currently evaluating Premiere Elements. One of the issues I would like to discuss is the following: although we have a few laptops, we also have a fast xenon dual core, 4GB RAM Dell server, running on win 2003 32 bit.
Is it possible to install P.E. on this server and work via remote desktop?
If not, is it possible to do this with Premiere Pro (we can consider upgrading, since we're now only evaluating)
If not, is it possible to work locally but do all the rendering automatically on our server?
The main issue thus is: how can working with Premiere be less intensive for our laptops and how can we use the power of our server.
(everything is on a local LAN 100Mbit, but this could be upgraded to 1Gb)
Thanks a lot!

I'm with the other two gentlemen on this one. No flavor of Premiere, Pro, or Elements, works well, if at all, on a network. Encore, the authoring application in PrPro is even worse at this.
There have been several posts, mostly from the academic community, wishing to do similar. Unfortunately, no one, as I recall, has ever posted back to a thread after speaking with Adobe Technical Support.
Now, I have worked with Assets stored on either mapped network drives, or on an NAS, but that is really quite different and simple. Because of speed, even on a gigabit NIC, I usually just Copy the Assets over to one of my internal HDD's, or to a FW-800 external. That is not much help in your case.
I would urge you to post back and share any info that you do get. I hope that I am wrong, and there's an easy way to handle this. I'd also love to see Adobe release an "academic server" version of the program, with maybe satellite modules for the networked users. School is a great place for Adobe to make inroads to compete with the Mac-based FCP. PE would be a great program for students to work on. I can also see issues, if one had to install the full program and set up user accounts at a high level on lab machines - networking would be ideal. [The latter was more a "note" to Adobe, and was not a rant.]
Good luck,
Hunt

File icons via Remote Desktop

While working on an app, I seem to have run into a problem.
When you get filetype icons via File.icon when using Remote
Desktop, the icons always come back blank. Below is a test program.
When I run it on my box natively, it returns the icon as expected.
When I connect to the box (XP Pro) via Remote Desktop, the icons
always come back blank. Can someone run my program and check to see
if it's just my box that's the problem?? Just type in a path to a
file (e.g. C:\BOOT.INI) and see if it shows the icon both locally
and remotely. Thanks!

Hello TonyJK,
Could you please explain a bit about the sentence ‘the file path for Remote Access’?
If it is the file path of Bitdefender, to receive better support, it is recommended to seek help from the related Bitdefender forum.

Options for deployment via Remote Desktop Services / Terminal Server

Currently we have volume licenses for CS which is deployed via remote desktop services in a multi-server load balanced farm.
When reaching out to support, they informed me that CC cannot be deployed via RDS/terminal services.
Seeing that CS is discontinued, how does Adobe suggest deployment of their apps via RDS/Terminal services?
The support rep really didn't have an answer for me.
I find it hard to believe that Adobe's going to abandon deployment of their apps in the enterprise as things are moving towards thin clients rather than traditional desktops.
We'd like to avoid needing to go VDI instead of RDS if possible.
I'd imagine VDI would have the same licensing issues assuming you don't want to have a dedicated VM for each user rather than having a shared pool of VMs.
Thank You.

Problems conencting via Remote Desktop Connection to a server

hello! i have a problem connecting to one of our servers via Remote Desktop Connection. The story goes like this: the server works fine, i can connect using my credentials with no problems, the firewall is up. But, when i restart the server, after loading
windows, the server wont respond. I try to ping its IP Address and no respond. The only way so far to fix this bug is to log on localy (without remote) and disable the Windows firewall. Instantly the server starts to respond and i can connect to it via remote
desktop conenction. If i restart the server, the problem appears again and the solution to it this time is to enable the windows firewall back again. This enable/disable firewall thing doesnt seem right. Does anyone have any idea?
thank you!

Hi Dede,
Your box is up to date with windows updates.
Witch windows server are you using?
Maybe review the firewall exceptions.

How to run windows mobile device center via remote desktop

I am developing mobile application in Microsoft Visual Studio 2008. I connect to my computer via remote desktop and my operating system is Windows Server 2012 R2. In order to test the application, I use mobile device emulator. I can run device emulator but
there occurs a problem when I try to cradle the device. I found out that this is because wmdc cannot run via remote desktop. Is there any way to run wmdc via remote desktop? I searched other topics but there is no solution to this.
Note : WMDC works when I directly use the computer not with remote desktop.

Hi Omer,

ITunes interface funky after connecting via remote desktop

I connected to my PC via remote desktop while iTune was opened, and ever since the software interface seems to be corrupted somehow, even after running the repair function in add / remove software and rebooting several times. The background of the software is now pink and the fonts are all messed up.
Has anyone else ever experienced this and are there any suggestions for fixing it short of completely uninstalling and reinstalling the software?

Make sure that in your Display Settings colour is set to 32 bit. See this link for details: iTunes - Pink iTunes window under iTunes XP/Vista

Cannot connect VIA Remote Desktop to Windows 8.1 on a virtual machine

I have Windows 8.1 Enterprise running in a Hyper-V VM. For some reason I cannot connect to the VM using remote desktop. I am using a Microsoft account and remote desktop is enabled and my account has access. I am able to see the VM under
networks and access shared folders. The error I am getting is "Remote Desktop can't connect to the remote computer....".
Any ideas?

My account has access to RDP. The firewall rule to allow RDP was missing the permission for public networks. After this change the RDP client can find the computer and I can get in. Yay!
Thanks for the tip to check the firewall.

Is there a way to access my Mac via remote desktop from a Windows machine?

Hi, I'm lookinf for a way to connect from work to my Mac at home. I can do this using VNC and it works, but it is freaking slow! I also dont want to use the Chrome remote dekstop plugin or TeamViewer, there must be a RDP client that can go from Windows to Mac.
Does any of you have some recommendation!?

Connecting _from_ a windows machine through remote desktop?

I have a os x server set up so that users can get to it through vpn by logging into a specific account ( lets call it remote_user ). The users are on windows machines, and they get remote desktop running, at which point the problems start. Instead of seeing the remote_user's desktop, they see whatever happens to be on the screen at the time, even the Administrator's account, if that happens to be logged in. Furthermore, these users have full control over even the Administrator's account and are able to do whatever the administrator might be able to do locally. Is this normal behavior or is there something I should be doing otherwise. Thanks in advance!

Further details:
the server is running on a mac mini, the internal interface is the built-in ethernet, the external interface is a usb-ethernet adapter connected directly to a cable modem. on the internal network there is a windows computer which has a program which needs to be run remotely. for this, a vpn connection to the server is established (using the vpn module in the server admin) and then the server is accessed though the virtual network that is created. the server runs wonderfully when left alone. however, when a vpn connection is made, the server lives for about 10 minutes and then freezes up. if no account is logged in on the server, the login window becomes unresponsive. if, for example, the administrator is logged in and is watching the server admin window, the server refreshes and remains that way, in a permanent refresh. if you have a preview window open reading a pdf, you are able to scroll though the pdf. you are, however unable to access any menus in the menu bar, nor start any new programs from the dock. the only way to get things up and running again is to hold down the power button. the last bit of bad news is that even after restart, the only way to get vpn up is to manually shut it down in the server administrator and to start it up again. i hope this can be resolved somehow. thanks in advance!
