Pro Dock Remote Desktop Connection

I have a Thinkpad X1 Carbon (20A8S0450X) that uses a ThinkPad OneLink Pro Dock (4X10E52950) to drive two external monitors.  Therefore, in normal operation, I have 3 screens visible.  The main display is set to one of the external monitors.
I often use a separate PC and use Remote Desktop Connection to access the laptop above.  When I finish the session after a period of time, and return to the laptop, the screens are all blank and will not reactivate.  Unplugging the docking station from the laptop does not resolve the issue as the laptop monitor remains blank.  I therefore have to perform a hard reset to reboot the laptop to continue using it.
Has anyone else experienced this problem?  Is anyone able to assist with a resoltuion to this issue?
Thanks in advance

  • Using a remote desktop connection with the Macbook pro.

    I use the remote desktop connection on the Macbook pro and am unable to exchange info between the mac and the remote connetion windows. For example, if I am writing an email from the remote connection and want to attach a document, photo etc. that I created on the Mac, it just doesn't work. It seems like the Mac and the desktop connection are completely seperated eventhough they are both on the screen in front of me. the systems I use for work are not Apple compatible and will not work on anything other than windows explorer and in my case the remote desk top connection. Any ideas!

    Welcome to Apple Discussions
    Try running in 'ClamShell' mode (MacBook Pro lid closed and using an external keyboard and mouse) with the Gateway connected and then run System Preferences/Displays, it should show then ...

    Hi,
    When you try to start the Remote Destop Connection, what errors it showed out?
    Could the other PCs connect this PC with the RDC?
    So you have read this blog?
    RDP connections might fail due to a problem with KB2621440 - MS12-020
    Did you reinstalled the KB2621440?
    Besides, did you follow this guide to enable the RDC connection?
    Connect to another computer using Remote Desktop Connection
    And also this guide?
    Why can’t I connect using Remote Desktop Connection?
    Please take a check with those settings again.

  • IS at work told me I need to upggrade my home Macbook Pro operating system , 10.6.8, to a new version in order to remote desktop connect to my windows 7.1 machine at work.  I want to know if I can skip prior upgrades and go to Yosemite or if I have

    Since my work machine was upgraded to a Windows 7.1 pc, I can no longer connect remotely with my Macbook Pro with 10.6.8.  I need to know the most efficient and economical way of doing this and if I can skip versions to get where I need to be.  Supposedly, I need the very latest remote desktop connection software, and it is not compatible with 10.6.8.  Help please.
    Thanks

    Open the Mac App Store and try downloading Yosemite. If you get told it's incompatible, choose About this Mac from the Apple menu, check if the computer has at least a Xeon or Core 2 Duo(not Core Duo) CPU and 2GB of RAM, and if it does, click here and order a download code for Lion 10.7.
    Back up your data and check your applications for compatibility before upgrading. In particular, Mac OS X 10.7 and newer don't support PowerPC programs such as versions of Microsoft Office prior to 2008.

  • HP LaserJet Pro MFP M127fn and Remote Desktop Connection

    So, my pc operates on Win7-64bit.  I use Remote Desktop Connection to log in to the company server, running on MS Server 2008.  I purchased the HP MFP M127fn today after confirming that it is compatible with both OS listed above.  I  successfully installed it directly to the server via usb cord - to make sure the correct drivers downloaded to the server.  I was able to test-print and print from an app while physically connected to the server.  I then disconnected the printer from the server and successfully connected it to my local pc.  I can test-print and print from an app on my desktop.  When connect to the server via RDC, it recognizes the MFP M127fn as my default printer, and sends a print job to my local pc.  I can see the job in the server print queue, I can see the print job in queue on my desktop....it spools, then says it prints, however no actual print job ever materializes.
    If I select to print to the MFP M127fn fax from the server, it will open the fax window on my desktop, allow me to enter a phone number, and will dial out and send the fax.  So, that driver is functioning properly.
    So, my question is this:  If the printer and fax claim to be successfully installed, why do I not get the print job that is sent via the server and appears in my local print queue?  I get no error, either on the server side or the local desktop.  They both truly think the job has printed.....but no paper ever comes out.   
    Our company has used several other HP printers over the years with this same set-up and have never had a problem until now.  The last one was also an HP MFP - the CM1312.  So, I am now completely stumped by this.  I called HP support and was routed through 4 different areas before I was told that no one had a clue what the problem might be.  I then called the Easy-Tech desk at Staples, where I bought the printer, and was told that it was most-likely a hardware issue and I should return the printer to swap it out for another one.  If nothing would print at all, I would agree it's hardware.  But, as I can print locally, I'm more-inclined to think it's driver-related......any suggestions? 

    Hi,
    The M127fn uses the PCLmS printing language which is a lightweight printing language, a such is not supported for RDP printing.
    As a reference you may find the following socument about Citrix, Terminal Services and RDP Printing, as you may find listed the M127 is not supported for a such:
    http://h20195.www2.hp.com/v2/GetDocument.aspx?docn​ame=4aa0-8465enw&404m=secure-erc
    That is clearly not an harware issue, however I suggest returning the printer and replacing it with a different model which better feet such a task.
    The M225dn as an example uses a PCL 6 print driver and should provide a better feet for RDP printing using HP UPD.

  • Remote Desktop Connection to Windows 8 PC from other computers crashing

    Hi all.
    Was hoping someone would be able to help me with an issue I'm having.
    I'm trying to get a LAN remote desktop connection established to my Windows 8 laptop. It's an HP ENVY 17t-2100 CTO 3D Edition Notebook PC. Note that I'm running Windows 8 Pro only - not 8.1 as HP haven't released 8.1 graphics drivers for this laptop and probably
    never will. The computer has a single user profile that has full administrator rights.
    I have followed numerous web tutorials on how to turn on Remote Desktop. I've gone into Advanced System Settings > System Properties > Remote > checked "Allow Remote connections to this computer". All seems ok to me. 
    The problem comes when I try to establish a connection. When the connection is made, it almost instantaneously crashes the session on the computer or device trying to connect. The RDP client on my Windows 7 laptop, Mac OSX or Mac running Windows 8.1 Pro just
    crashes, while the RDP iPhone or iPad app simply flickers for a few seconds then goes back to the main screen. Meanwhile, the HP ENVY loads the lock screen and displays a message saying XXX device is connected remotely and it won't let me log back in to kill
    the connection or do anything. I have to restart the computer from then to be able to use it again.
    I'm convinced there's not a problem with my local network as the HP ENVY can RDP into the Windows 7 laptop or Mac running Windows 8.1 without any problems. All computers are connected via Ethernet to a Linksys/Cisco wireless ADSL modem router which supports
    Gigabit. The iPhone and iPad of course connect to the wifi network from the Cisco/Linksys modem router
    I've also had a brief look at the RDP local connection logs. From what I can make out, they confirm that a user has successfully logged in, but they don't provide a crash log or a log of the user ever disconnecting, probably because I have to restart the computer
    to continue using it. Dead end there, it seems.
    The HP ENVY is connected to 3 external HP LED monitors. I've disconnected them and tried all devices with no luck. I've also played round with the RDP client settings to not mount drives or printers and the HP ENVY has no printers connected anyway, though I've
    done all I can to remove any printer drivers as I've read elsewhere that they are what could cause the problem, but I've had no luck. 
    If anyone can suggest anything more that I can try, I would be unbelievably grateful! I'm more than happy to provide screenshots or videos of what happens when I try connecting. I'm not sure what you experts would find immediately helpful so just ask away if
    you think I can provide anything.
    Thanks in advance!
    rugbyreff

    The first thing that I would try is to uncheck all of the boxes for local resources on computer running the RDP client. It is possible that a device, such as a printer or other redirected device, is causing the crash. You can also look under Event Viewer
    in the event logs of both systems and see if anything unusual appears when you attempt the remote connection.

    Hi Brandon
    Many thanks for your suggestions. There's nothing in the logs that I could find, like I said in the original post. I've also tried connecting with bare minimum settings on all devices (FYI the iPad and iPhone version don't support the use of printers) and
    this still hasn't helped.
    If you have any other ideas I'd be very glad to hear them!

  • Can 1 instance of Windows 8.1 ENTERPRISE host multiple Remote Desktop connections?

    I am shopping for the components for building a machine with fair, high-performance hardware. I have Windows 8.1 Professional. I wanted to know if either Windows 8.1 Professional or Windows 8.1 Enterprise can support multiple remote connections
    from users outside the local network. For example, my brother is based in San Diego, CA and has an underpowered laptop. Is there any way to make a remote connection over that much distance, from San Diego to Northern Virginia, from a RDP client running Windows
    8.1 Professional to a RDP "server" Windows 8.1 Professional/Enterprise machine, and run a modern, single- or multiplayer- game over smoothly that connection? At the very least, is it possible to run common
    apps (e.g. Microsoft Office 2013 IE 11, Adobe Acrobat XI) smoothly on a Windows 8.1 Pro RDP client connected to a Windows 8.1 RDP "server" located 2250+ miles away?
    Would upgrading my installation from Professional to Enterprise improve the responsiveness and display quality for my remote users?
    I know Windows Server R2 2012 has features specific for handling remote connections, but I am trying to keep a Windows 8.1 user experience. Still, if anyone can show some evidence that Windows Server 2012 R2 Remote Desktop Services (RDS)  improves display
    and responsiveness over long-distances for remote (RDS) connections, then I will shop for Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard instead. The huge drawback of Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard CALs is the enormous cost to enable 3-5
    remote connections for family, non-commercial use.
    Has anyone attempted to host long-distance remote access, non-commercially, for 3-5 connections? Has it worked well? What, in general, is required?
    T. Webster

    Hi,
    It depends on the quality of the network connection to run the software smoothly throuth RDP.  And I don't think the quality would be better if you upgrade to Windows 8.1 Enterprise.
    Windows 8.1 allow only one session of RDP, the Remote Desktop Server in Windows other than the Windows Server edition has a limitation to allow only one concurrent user per session by default, i.e. if someone remotely connects to the computer over RDP then
    whoever was logged in at that moment will be automatically logged off, even if that user is physically present at the computer. This is by design.
    Regarding more information about RDP, please take a look at the following articles:

  • Remote Desktop connection and retina display

  • Remote Desktop Connection

    I'm running bootcamp Windows 8 on a MacBook Pro and a MacMini (on home network). 
    I have them set up for remote access. At home on the same network, I can remote desktop to the MacMini using the local IP address with no problems.
    I then wanted to access it from an external network so I enabled the default 3389 port in my firewall settings and set up this port to my MacMini in my router settings. I reserved the IP address for the MacMini as well.
    I was able to successfully connect from an external network at least once but once my external IP address changed, I was no longer able to get it to work after updating the IP address. The computer is on because I can access it using TeamViewer and I use
    that to check the current IP address of the MacMini when I'm trying to connect.
    To get around the dynamic IP problem, I signed up for a dyndns account and set up a host name. I can use a port check and the host name ***.dyn-o-saur.com resolves to the correct IP address (i.e., the whatismyip.com result on the MacMini). 
    I have tried changing the port to 8888 in case TeamViewer or some other application was using 3389 but that hasn't fixed the problem either. I've checked the port (using http://www.t1shopper.com/tools/port-scan/) and I get this message:
    ***.dyn-o-saur.com is responding on port 8888 (ddi-tcp-1).
    I have the dynUpdater v5.0.1 installed on both computers and it says the host is inactive (however since the hostname is resolving properly I assume this means the app is not working but it shouldn't be affecting my ability to connect?).
    Some help please?

    Hi,
    Firstly, we need to refer to this article and configure the settings.
    Allow Remote Desktop connections from outside your home network
    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/allow-remote-desktop-connections-from-outside-your-home-network
    From you description, I think you have done this part. However, please keep to use port 3389 and make sure that you can RDP to your Windows 8 via the
    Public IP address from Internet.
    Then, as you have dynamic public IP address, we need some way to track the changes of your public IP address. Yes, dyndns is one of the methods, you need to make sure that it
    can resolve the host name you registered to the correct Public IP address so that you can always RDP you Windows 8 via host name when you outside your home.
    If you need assistance about dyndns, please contact their support.
    Thanks.

  • Remote Desktop Connection With Custom Certificate on Windows 8.1 fails

    I'm trying to establish a secured remote desktop connection without success.
    The setting
    There are some local pcs with windows 8.1 Pro and windows 7 Pro, no server-edition. I've created a self signed ca-certificate with openssl for Windows. I used this to sign custom certs for the local windows-pcs, which are installed at mmc -> certificate
    snap-in for local computer -> My Certificates -> Certificates. The networkdriver has the right to read the key. The sha1-fingerprint of the custom signed certs are registered at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server\WinStations\RDP-Tcp
    -> SSLCertificateSHA1Hash = sha-1 hash of the custom local cert. Additionally the revocation-list is restrained to the local list by setting HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa\Credssp -> UseCachedCRLOnlyAndIgnoreRevocationUnknownErrors
    = 1.
    The results
    The connection form win 8.1 to win 7 works. The connection info confirms that it is a veryfied connection. The connection to windows 8.1 fails after entering the credentials with error: No connection possible. Network Level Authentication is set, but other
    level don't work as well. The log (Event Views -> Applications and Services Logs -> Microsoft -> Windows -> TerminalServices-RemoteConnectionManager -> Admin) says "Remote Desktop Services has taken too long to load the user configuration
    from server" and "The Local Security Authority Cannot Be Contacted" (error 0x80090304)
    Aditional information
    The connection via linux (remmina) works for win 7 and win 8.1, but I have no information about the encryption. It is the same with the Microsoft Remote Desktop Tool for Android.
    Maybe it is accociatet with a different cert handling by Windows 8.1 but I couldn't find further information or a solution in the internet.
    Best regards
    abditus

    I solved the problem!
    The default openssl certificate signature algorithm is md5RSA but it doesn't work with windows 8.1.
    It is at least sha1RSA needed.
    By adding "default_md = sha1" to the openssl.cnf you create certs with sha1RSA and it works fine.

  • Remote Desktop Connection Solution, VPC NOT an option

    I downloaded Remote Desktop Connection yesterday B/C I wanted to be able to do work on my mac, I have virtual PC with WINXP but it was way to slooow.
    I do not want to play games, I play games on my compaq laptop that's in a full sized docking station.
    So I was looking and reading at this software (RDC) and it sounded like a viable option, My laptop has a 14" monitor but the iMac is a 17".
    so I downloaded it and set it up, BTW my connection is iMac to Laptop docking station I used a "Crossover Cable".
    Set the IP address and I have (Sorry to say) windows on my MAC for nuthing!
    It works great ALOT faster than VPC (since it does not have to emulate a Intel CPU).
    And the Laptop monitor goes to sleep after 1 minute so now I can have the best of both worlds!

    I'm not quite sure why you posted this.
    You marked your post as a question... but I can't find one.
    Do you have a question or was this somewhat of an "informational" post?

  • Remote Desktop Connection no longer works.

    After verifying that all Remote Desktop Connection settings and firewall settings match the requirements, I cannot connect to the host computer running Windows 8.1 Pro with Media Center from a client computer running Windows 7 Home Premium SP1 over my
    home (private) network. I was previously able to connect these same two computers when the host computer was running Windows XP Pro, but now that I have upgraded its operating system to Win 8.1 Pro the connection no longer works. The Windows Troubleshooter
    cannot find the problem. What is wrong?

    If you turn off a firewall in a router it is still using NAT which will also act like a firewall. In my experience its better to let your router be the firewall.
    On most routers that have an SPI firewall you have to setup 2 rules to allow remote connections. One would be the firewall rule and other would be the port forwarding(NAT) rule.
    Are you forwarding the correct ports to your mac from the router? Does your Mac have a fixed IP address?

  • Remote Desktop Connection stop working after upgrade from 10.5.8 to 10.6.1

    I too could not connect to a W2K3 server with RDC 2.0.1 after upgrading from Mac OS X, 10.5.8 to 10.6/10.6.1. I have another Mac which is on 10.5.8 and connect fine with the same version of RDC 2.0.1 as well as other PC with Terminal Service Clients.
    There is no change on the server side. I have uninstalled and reinstalled RDC 2.0.1 several time and it did not resolve the issue. To rule out firewall/network, I tested with another remote desktop application called CoRD (for Mac) on the same laptop running SL 10.6.1 and it connected to the same W2K3 server fine.
    One thing that is worth mentioning (in my case), when it does not connect, RDC totally quit (not running anymore. Not minimize, no cannot connect error message, no little dot on the Dock for RDC, nothing) right after I put in the credential in. When looking at the log entries that are related to RDC in the Console application, I see the following

    Any help would be appreciated

    Doing some more troubleshooting after my post above as I saw a couple of entries referencing Stop Light keep popping up in the log of the Console. I removed Stoplight and Cocoa Gesture (for good meausre) and RDC 2.0.1 started working. I think it is Stop Light which causes RDC stop working, but I don't have to time right now to put Cocoa Gesture back to confirm that. I might if I have the time or post here if you have Stop Light installed as well and removing it resolved the RDC issue for you.

  • 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:
