Problem with Remote Desktop on iPad 2 and windows 8.1 pro

I downloaded the Microsoft Remote Desktop app from the App Store on my iPad 2. I typed in the IP address for my windows 8.1 pro computer on my iPad 2 in school to try connecting to my windows 8.1 pro computer at home. I'm having
a hard time doing it. Do I need a rd remote gateway to access my computer from outside my local network. If so, how do I find my gateway server name? Also, I saw somewhere that I have to press accept in a pop up message on the computer your trying to connect
to. Is this true? No one is home during the day and my iPad 2 has to stay in school. Can you please give me a step by step guide with photos to help me connect to my windows 8.1 pro computer from my iPad 2 from school, which is of course outside my local network.

Hi,

  • Problems with Remote Desktop and Back to My Mac

    It's impressive how quickly Apple removed my post because of its tone. I hope they respond with equal speed and verve to my concerns.
    I need to get Remote Desktop operational. Can someone walk me through the process of getting Remote Desktop to "see" my home computer? The current online video tutorial for Remote Desktop is outdated and no longer resembles the current UI for setting up Remote Desktop.
    What about Back to My Mac? Can I get help with that, too? I figure if I can get at least RD or BTMM running properly I'll be able to do what I want to do.

    The subject of connecting ARD via the Internet has been covered here many times already (search the forum for "Internet"), but take a look at this web page:
    http://www.starkpr.com/ard.htm
    It should help, though you may have to refer to your router's documentation for specifics on opening and forward ports in that particular unit.
    "Back to my Mac" is a different feature of Mac OS X and has it's own forum:

  • Does anyone know a true remote desktop to ipad and ipad to ipad remote access?

    Looking for an Apple Remote Desktop to ipad program, not App...  Then I need a program app for iPad to iPad remote access.  Does anyone know of such aspect?

    Garageband plus AU plugins, such as isotope OZone, etc. This is the cheapest.

  • Problem with remote desktop and lock screen

    I know of the easy way to immediately lock a Mac's screen by clicking the menu bar lock icon from KeychainAccess. This works on every system under my control (rMBP running Mavericks, MacMini with 10.5 and Mavericks). However when I control the Macs via Remote Desktop (currently 3.7.2), that lock icon behaviour changes.
    Trying to lock a 10.5 system, the screen inside the Remote Desktop window goes black immediately. Moving the mouse activates the password dialog. That is what I want. Doing the same in a remote Mavericks system, the screen goes to a dark blackish semi-transparent state. Moving the mouse immediately restores the normal desktop view, no password asked. Is this a feature or a bug in Remote Desktop? This change in behaviour must have come in around Lion or Mountain Lion.

    Hi
    Do you use the Intel Proset Utility to configurate the WLan connection?
    Try to configure the WLan using this tool and check if the Wlan would disconnect again.
    Im also interesting what Wlan driver did you use?
    Did you use one from the Intel page?
    If not, check the Intel page for the newest WLan driver version.

  • Solution Center problem with HP Office Jet J4550 and windows 7 (64bit)

    Hello All,
    I have a problem. I have the Solution Center and a HP Office Jet J4550 and windows 7 (64bit). When ever I open the solution center, the solution center says " HP office jet J4550 series disconnected" When I open HP document manager, I can access the printer.  Additionally, when I run the HP Print Diagnostic Utility 4.0, it sees the printer, no issues. I can print test pages. No issues. I downloaded the latest driver from the HP site (OJJ4500_Full_13, 299,359KB) Your insight is appreciated.
    Thank you
    Roy B

    I have a similar problem with the J4580 and my new Windows 7 64-bit laptop.  HP Solution Center says that the printer is disconnected.  Furthermore, it can print some documents (short ones), but it was unable to print a 1-page 5MB pdf file.  The printer truncated the page after printing just the top 10%.   The printer is OK with my wife's Windows 7 32-bit laptop.
    I've seen many other people complain about similar problems in this and other forums.  Apparently the driver for J4500 printers is not compatible with Windows 7 64-bit.  Can HP please provide an updated driver or patch?

  • Hanging problems with JRE 1.4.0 and Windows 2000

    We have written a Java application which is an editor using Swing components. Most of us happily run it on Windows 2000 PCs with a decent PC spec of 512 Mb RAM and 1 Gb Processors and Java JDK 1.4.0 installed. However, other users with smaller spec PCs of 128 Mb RAM and 450 MHz processors and using only the Java Runtime Environment v1.4.0 keep making the application hang.
    I've done plenty of debugging and investigation and am now convinced that this is not our application software that is causing the problems - the hangs are never consistent in their behaviour. I don't think that lack of memory is the problem either as it hangs with no other application running and it only uses a small amount itself.
    So what could cause this problem ? Is there a significant difference between using the JDK and JRE ? Could it be PC spec ? Are there some config settings that I should check ?
    Any help would be appreciated as the application has become unusable for our users when we seem to be having no problems at all !
    Sarah.

    I have been tring to track down a similar problem for quite some time, with no luck as of yet. On 4 out of 6 machines running Windows 2000 Pro, any application that I write using any graphical component AWT or Swing, will hang at run time using JDK 1.4. I have no solution for you but I am hoping this message might spark some more advice.

  • Compatibility problem with USMT 6.3.9600 and Windows Vista

    Hi,
    We have a problem with USMT 6.3.9600 ()ADK 8.1) while running on Vista. At start we are receiving an error saying it is not a win32 application. USMT 6.2.9200 would work on Vista but not on Windows 8.1.

  • Microsoft Remote Desktop app ios7 to Windows 8.1 Pro

    For anyone using an iPad to remote desktop to your Windows 8.1 pro 64 bit computer, I recently posted the following distress call in the Microsoft Community Windows - Windows 8.1 - Other Windows apps by Microsoft - Other.
    A Microsoft Support Engineer there suggested I post it here instead. The 1st part is the distress part, the 2nd part is how I finally solved it and then a different problem started ...
    Part 1
    Help, I'm going crazy trying to get this Microsoft Remote Desktop app on ios7 to connect to my computer running Windows 8.1.
    I've added my computer name, user name and password, but even though it starts to connect it never does and gives me an error message saying:
    Timeout while resolving hostname
    I've set up my computer to allow remote connections and allow connections only from computers running blah, blah, blah.
    What am I doing wrong?
    In the past I was able to use logmein free without any problems until they stopped the free version. I can also get through using Team Viewer, so why won't the RD Client app work?
    Part 2
    Doesn't matter now as I ended up working out that it didn't work with my computer name. What I had to do is go to cmd and type ipconfig to find
    the right ip address and insert it where it asked for computer name and it worked! Of course, then it kept disconnecting, so I've totally abandoned it and will use Team Viewer instead (until I'm willing to try again). 
    So that's where I'm up to.
    I didn't find anything useful in this TechNet article: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn473013.aspx
    So any suggestions on how to make Microsoft's RD Client app on ios work without disconnecting all the time?

    Hi,
    For this issue,as Milos said,using the host name requires your network to resolve the host name properly through DNS.
    So this issue is related to DNS.In many home network configurations only the IP address will work properly.
    Regarding DNS,I suggest you check the configuration on the ipad.
    Regarding how to add host name to IOS,I suggest you contact apple support for help.

  • Problem with Adobe After Effects CS6 on Windows 8.1 PRO

    Hi Adobe Systems guys, I would like to know when the error will have the solution presented Adobe After Effects CS6 (Latinoamerican Spanish Version) running Windows 8.1 PRO, and throwing the following error.
    I've tried the latest available update 11.0.3 but does not correct the problem. I wonder when will be ready the solution because with Illustrator CS6 also was the same but with the solution described in this page, http://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/kb/illustrator-does-not-start-windows-81.html was solved perfectly.
    I appreciate prompt as we need urgent help to use the software in its Spanish version as was originally purchased. thanks

    That such a friend, for I tell you that none of their solutions is an option for me because:
    • Wait a couple of months with no after effects in the hope That a patch will come ... someday
    R:/ The problem is not mine, is problem of Abode and therefore investing heavily in the creative suite CS6 and for that to be an option.
    It's not fair to have to beg for a solution.
    • Upgrade to CC and enjoy all the latest features
    R:/ It is not possible , because we will not spend more money than they already invested in Suite CS6
    • Use After Effects CS6 in English
    R:/ It is not possible as the staff in charge of managing this program if it is not handled in English and therefore bought the suite in Spanish .
    • Roll your computer back to Windows 8 instead of 8.1
    R:/ It is not possible as it is known all Windows 8.0 failures we have put in 8.1 PRO .
    I do not understand is that if Adobe Illustrator had the same problem and it was fixed within a couple of days getting the patch , why not do the same with After Effects CS6 in Spanish . All users of this suite CS6 and buyers deserve respect and prompt solution to the problems that are the fault of Adobe.

  • Problems with Remote app on iphone and Mac connection

    Hi,
    I am using iTunes 10.4.1, and am trying to use the remote app on my iphone to control my itunes with it. I was able to connect previously, before I upgraded to Lion OS, before upgrading to the latest versions of iTunes and my iPhone as well. But now, the connection is just dead.
    I tried to re-add my iTunes onto my iphone again, but I couldn't find this box to check in my iTunes under Preferences > Devices -
    "Look for iPod touch, iPhone and iPad Remotes"
    Someone please advice me?
    Thanks.

    maybe for you, but isn't for me.
    i have the remote app on my iphone4 and it's connected to 2 appletv's.
    i don't experience any dropping of connection etc.
    May I ask what wifi hardware you use? It might be an wifi issue, but one which is only related with the "Bonjour" protocol which seems to be used for the Remote App. I found this thread which is older (iOS 3) but describing exactly the same problems:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2048555&start=0&tstart=0
    bear in mind that the iphone4 is now "n" wifi compatible (2.4Ghz), so could it be that the "n" part of your network is poor and thus why you only see the problem on the iphone4 ?
    At least it is not poor when using it from other devices or moving a lot of data in other Apps. It is all Apple Hardware (nothing older than 2 years), and maybe that's the problem. I never had network hardware which made so much trouble, as Apples Airport series. I wouldn't wonder if it is an incompatibility between a new wifi chip in the iPhone 4 and a older Revision of an Airport device. But I don't know how to check - is there a system.log on the iPhone which I can access somehow?

  • Audio problems with SBLive! 5.1 and Windows XP Pro,

    I just reinstalled Windows XP Pro from a slipstreamed CD with SP2 on it. (That means I can't just remove SP2 without reinstalling Windows.) Now, when I play a game the audio skips and stutters for the first 5-0 min of gameplay. The skipping and stuttering goes away eventually, but its REALLY annoying. This is the only hardware problem I've had with SP2, and I would like to know if there is a patch in the planning to fix all the SP2 Sound Blaster problems, or do we all have to find our own work around for these things.
    If anyone has a solution for this please let me know. I've already installed the UniDriver thing, and it still acts up. I've tried removing and reinstalling everything, cleaning out my registry, and rebooting. Defragging my HD did not work either. Nothing seems to work.
    CPU= AMD Athlon XP 2600+
    RAM=704Mb
    Video=GeForce 4 MX440 AGP 28DDR
    Please help soon.

    I think I may have solved my problem. I recently installed Full Spectrum Warrior. I installed it to a different dri've than all of my other games. Lo and behold, no audio problems. After some further investigation, I believe that the audio problem lies in an old hard disk dri've that is in the beginning stages of failure. After I actually thought about it, my load times from this hard disk have been taking forever, but Full Spectrum Warrior loads very quickly. The dri've is going to die! But I guess it's ok, the dri've is almost 0 years old, and this is the 3rd computer its been in.
    Thanks for your help,
    Josh

  • Problems with Syncing Mail between iPad and MacBook

    The mail between my iPod Touch and MacBook used to sync themselves perfectly. If I got a piece of mail on one device and looked at it or deleted it, it wouldn't show up on the other device. It was like both devices could access the same mailbox and not confuse messages with one another. I loved that!!
    This is not the case with my iPad. I'll get a piece of mail on my iPad, open it and/or archive it, and then it'll show up on my MacBook's mail as a brand new, unopened message...
    How can I fix this? Surely there must be some sort of solution...
    If it matters, this is a GMail account, and I'm using an iPad 2 (16 GB, WiFi)

    I think i have found how to solve the problem. I went into address book preferences and i noticed i didn't have icloud enabled here. As long as i use icloud contacts rather than 'on my mac' contacts it now seems to delete and add across the 2 devices. Many thanks
