Remote connection from my MacBook Pro to my windows based Exchange server

I have just purchased a MacBook Pro (my first Mac). I am attempting to set it up so I can access my office server which is windows based (Exchange). With my previous notebook, I simply accessed it throught the laptop's "Windows Remote Desktop Connection" by typing in the server address in "Remote Desktop Connection'". Is there any procedure to access my office desktop remotely through my Mac?

Just download the Mac version of RDC from http://www.microsoft.com/mac

  • HT3382 Connect from a MacBook Pro's mini display port to a Display Port monitor?

    Hello everyone,
    Is it possible to connect from a MacBook Pro's mini display port to a Display Port monitor with resolutions higher than 1920 x 1200? It seems Apple does not supply a mini-DP to DP adapter.
    However, just as they do not make a mini-DP to HDMI adapter, but they do recommend a Belkin product for this purpose.
    Is there any reason that a mini-DP to DP adapter or cable wouldn't work and support high resolutions?
    Thanks for your feedback!

    Hey tjk,
    Thanks for the response.
    Do you have any recommendations for a potential set up? The audio output and Apple DVI are on different sides of my MBP, which is alright, I guess I can get two long cables to handle each. I was hoping to just have my MBP closer to where I use it, with a cord nearby plugged in on one side to the HDTV and resting near where I keep my MBP for when I want to use the HDTV as an external monitor.
    With a converter like this, you can run video out of the MBP's DVI port, and miniToslink (optical) audio out of the 3.5mm stereo mini jack to the converter, then it will combine the two and output audio and video through HDMI to the monitor.

    Otherwise, depending on the TV's inputs, for video you could run DVI to DVI on the TV, or DVI to HDMI to the TV. For audio you could run 3.5mm stereo mini plug from the MBP to RCA adapter on the TV. Toslink/optical is also an option.

  • Remoting from my Macbook Pro to a Windows PC?

    I am using GoToMyPC on my Macbook Pro and remoting in to a Windows computer at work.  I'd like to be able to use my Windows functions such as the Alt+Tab and things of that nature.  Is there a way to use the Windows controls from my Mac, especially in Excel?

    Why don't you just use RDC???

  • Turn off apple remote control from my macbook pro

    How can I turn off my remote control from remoting both apple tv and myc macbook pro at same time. I just want to remote my apple tv.

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    If you want, you can disable the IR port in order to be able to stop control your computer with the Apple Remote. To do it, open System Preferences > Security & Privacy > General > Advanced, and mark "Disable remote control infrared receiver"

  • Printing from a MacBook Pro to a Windows XP shared printer

    I have a desktop Windows XP pc with a shared HP PhotoSmart 7760 printer connected via USB and a Vista laptop. They connects to the internet via a wireless router. I recently added 2 MacBook Pros and an AirPort base to access the internet with the Mac's. The pc's can "see" each other and print. The Macs cannot see the pc's and the printer.
    What I believe is happening is that although the Mac's and pc's use the same cable to get to the internet, they are on separate wireless networks and, thus, cannot see each other. Before I start experimenting too much, I hope to get another opinion as to what could be happening? Can I set the Mac's to use the pc wireless router putting them on the same network? Then would the Mac's see the printer?

    Hi pmackins,
    Welcome to the forum.
    I have a desktop Windows XP pc with a shared HP PhotoSmart 7760 printer connected via USB...
    Based on the above, my assumption is that the Printer is connected to the XP PC. The following may help:

  • How to connect from my Macbook Pro to Apple TV

    All,
    How do I get my Macbook to connect to my Apple TV?  Is it even possible?

    AirPlay
    If these devices live on same network you should be able to see your Apple TV in iTunes (bootm right).
    Home Sharing should be on if you want to access your iTunes library from Apple TV

  • How do I use internet sharing from my MacBook Pro (static IP, only one DNS server) to my iPod Touch?

    Hey,
       I'm connecting to the net using an Ethernet cable to my MacBook with the following network settings.
    IP Address: 192.168.y.{0-250}
    Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
    Router: 192.168.y.x (where 'y' is the same number as in the IP address)
    DNS Server: 192.168.99.3
    Apologies if I'm being unclear; not sure how much information it's OK to share publicly.
       I then turn on Airport and Internet Sharing, and look for my wireless network with my 4th generation iPod Touch. However, the network appears erratically. I sometimes have to wait for a minute or two and keep refreshing before it appears on my iTouch. When I try to connect it just says 'Failed to connect to the network'.
       I've followed all the steps in this article with several variations to no avail.
    http://lightyearsoftware.com/2010/06/how-to-set-up-internet-sharing-on-mac-os-x/
       Can anyone suggest a solution? Any help would be greatly appreciated. I've been banging my head against this for days.

    On the advice of a friend I installed and ran a program on my MacBook called 'IPSecuritas'. This has stopped my wireless network from appearing and disappearing, but I still can't connect. Would really appreciate some help with this.

  • Printing from my MacBook Pro on my Windows 7 printer.

    Until 2 weeks ago I had no issues. I had a Windows XP box with a local Epson printer. From my MacBookPro, I was able to print wirelessly to that printer directly. All I did was select it from my list of printers and off I went.
    My XP box died. I replaced it with a Windows 7 box.
    I am now trying to set up the printers again on the MacBookPRo to see the Epson that is now local to the Windows 7 box. When I tell my MacBook to look for printers, I can see the Windows 7 box, but before I can see the attached printer, it asks me for a Windows print server Username and Password. I don't have a U/N or P/W for a print server!
    How do I get around this? Is this on the Mac side or the Windows side? Where is that request coming from, considering there is no passworded print server running?
    I am running Snow Leopard and all updates have been applied.
    Any help you can provide to get this running would be extremely appreciated!
    Thanks... Paul

    It is what it is looking for. There is no other account. But there are other settings in Win7 that can impact your entry of this user information.
    Under Control Panel > Network and Internet is the 'Homegroup and sharing options'. Open then and then select the 'Advanced sharing settings'. Select your profile (it should be home/work, public has many lockout settings enabled) and turn off password protected sharing. Then try the password entry on the Mac again.

  • Why can't I send emails from my Macbook Pro. A window pops up saying this: Sending the message content to the server failed.  The server response was: An error occurred while sending this message using the SMTP server "(null)"

    This is starting to REALLY frustrate me! I used to be able to send emails with attachments perfectly fine with my email, and now all of a sudden it won't work. I work from home, and 8/10 my emails need to have images in them. SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME!

    Contact your internet service provider. They can run some tests to verify the cause of the problem. This sounds very much like an ISP issue.

  • 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!

  • Trying to connect a Belkin brand audio cable from my MacBook Pro to a Sony flatscreen TV. Cannot get any sound from the laptop out of the TV. What am I doing wrong?

    I'm trying to connect a Belkin brand stereo audio cable from my MacBook Pro to a Sony flatscreen TV (Apple "genius" handed me the cable to purchase.)  I have tried all the ports in the back of the Sony, and tried the volume on both the cable and TV remotes. I cannot get sound out of the Sony from my MacBook Pro laptop. What am I doing wrong???

    Downloaded your operating manual.  It appears that you need to connect the HDMI to HDMI 1 and the audio to the input socket just to the right of the VGA socket (i.e., between the VGA and the RF input connection).  The picture on page13 seems to be the clearest I could find:
    Although it's not exactly clear I think they are talking about a standard 3.5 mm (1/8") stereo jack for the audio inpu as opposed to the more common RCA jacks used in the row just above that VGA input socket.
    I haven't checked the manual as yet whether you need to set anything special with the controls other than input select.
    Note, if that truly is a 3.5 mm stereo jack cables are very common.  In your case it would just be a cable with a 3.5 mm jack on each end.
    Update:
    You will have to experiment with this but I think you will need to try pusing the input button to select either HDMI1 or PC (or Component?).  The manual is not clear on this (page 31).  Sometimes it just comes down to pushing buttons.
