Remote deskto freezes if idle

Hi all;
I got this weird problem: A computer which used to work perfectly well connecting with remote desktop while outside the network was brought into the network. Now if the remote desktop session is idle, it freezes and it takes 30 seconds to 1 minute
for it to re-establish once the user tries to get back to work. Other machines within the network are OK.
I have experienced this with some other machines as well, connecting from outside the network.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Server is 2012 server. Stations - vary: XP - win7.

Hi,
Before providing you any information, please reply additional details from your side.
1. Can you successfully logon to the RDS server after it freeze for while?
2. Do all clients encounter the same issue? If not, please help to check RDC client version on the problematic client.
3. Have you try to temporarily disable all firewall to check if this issue can be resolved?
4. Did you find any Event log on server side for root cause?
The issue which you are facing might occurs due to preparing network connection, or might if possible any 3rd party software cause this issue. Here suggesting you to check network traffic and also try to use latest RDP v 8.0 or 8.1(Temporary unavailable for
up gradation) for better experience.
Hope it helps!
Regards.

P67A-C43 / Windows 7 64-bit freezes when idle or during low activity

Greetings,
I've seen a few similar topics regarding freezes when idle or near-idle, but the troubleshooting steps I've tried don't seem to work. My P67A-C43 with an Intel 2500K Core i5 is not overclocked. It is repeatedly freezing in Windows 7 64-bit. It also did this when I was running Vista 64-bit. I also have Mac OS X Lion on this PC, and I never get freezes under OS X. This appears to be something related to how Windows interacts with idling or lower-power states. But I can't figure out what.
I have tried this with windows on a mechanical HDD and with the current SSD - no change.
I have tried running just one RAM module at a time - they both individually exhibit the behavior.
I have tried switching graphics cards from a GeForce 6500 GT to the current Radeon HD 6850 - no change.
I have tried switching power supplies from an Inland Gold 500W to the current OCZ 650W - no change.
I have tried switching from Intel SVID to APS mode stepping - no change.
I have tried switching C-States off - the system didn't freeze, but it got VERY hot under no load. Without C-states turned on, the CPU temperatures quickly reach 95C to 98C.
I've got the latest BIOS, the latest drivers, and everything else I can think of. Any more ideas?

WOW do I feel silly.
I opened the case to take a good look at the processor cooling, and found that the fan/heatsink assembly was not snapped in on one of the posts. The pre-applied thermal paste was only flattened on one side of the copper contacts for the heatsink.
I re-attached and snapped it all back in, and now my BIOS temperature reading is about 55C, whether C-State is on or off. In Windows without much of a load, it was 40-45C with C-States off, and 33-45C with C-States on.
What I've learned:
- double check your connections
- C-States is an amazingly effective system
- Intel makes some darn tough chips. They'll work (sort of) even if you install them wrong.
I'm still not sure if the freezing is fixed - I don't know how long I've been running without a proper heat sink. I'll leave it idling overnight (It's 23:30 here now), and see if it freezes.
Thanks for the help, guys. This is a nice forum.

Remote webapp freezes immediately after login in Server 2012 R2

Used the wizard and setup made a RDS deployment. 2 session hosts 1 server for Connction broker and License and one server for Gateway and web access.
Regular remote desktop works fine. Even through the web interface.
I just published Calc. When I try to access it and show the details, it logs on the then freezes at "Preparing Windows". Then the window will time out and close.
I am unable to find anything in the event viewer regarding this.
Anybody have some suggestions?

Hi,
How is everything going on?
Firstly I would like to know, which version of RDP client you are using in your environment. I suggest to use RDP 8.0 or 8.1 for better feature and also the user must always use Domain\Username whenever logging to RDWeb App.
You can try to change the path of RemoteApp as per this
thread (Answered by phil). Also try to make default logon domain for RD Web, get more information from
this thread.
Hope it helps!
Thanks,

Unavailable remote share freezes computer

Reliably, when connecting to a remote drive that is unavailable (in my case a 10.7 Lion Server afp share) the entire os seems to freeze-up for 30 seconds or more. I'm led to believe that this connection is the problem, because when a finder dialog pops up stating that the server is unavailable - everything unfreezes.
I have also noticed this in connecting to other servers/shares (i.e. DroboFS)
All Gigabit Connections.
Anyone else? Any work arounds?
Thanks!!

MacBook Pro freezes when idle and while first boot.

Hi everyone, sorry for my english i'm not a native speaker.
I have a problem with my MacBook Pro "Core i7" 2.2 15" Late 2011 (MD318LL)
Specs:
- Intel I7-2675QM 2.2GHz
- 4Gb 1333 DDR3
- Radeon HD 6750M and Intel HD Graphics 3000
- 500 GB (5400 RPM)
I bought it while i was in USA it was refubished
Everything was fine while i was in USA.
In russia (yep i'm from russia) macbook started to freeze while first boot (while it cold) and in idle (only in mac os x 10.8.2, i think it's becouse macbook cools down, in windows efi don't give acces to intel hd 3000, so macbook stays hot: cpu 60C\140F )
I changed ram,hdd nothing helped. Ran Apple Service Diagnostic nothing wrong (except for hdd test: error -33000 [wrong drive type] but i think it's becouse of ssd (i changed hdd to ssd to test if hdd is ok)).
Reinstalled Mac OS X same, installed windows same.
Everything fine in startup manager, or while installing mac os x, or while downloading mac os x (cmd+r in start up manager) and laptop is cold.
In games, programs, test everything fine. I think that problem in microcrack (hair crack not sure how in english). Any ideas? Ask any question.

I'm having the exact same issue. It came out of nowhere. I think I should get it serviced first and if will still have it, I will get it fixed.
I have Macbook Pro 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo with 4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3. I bought this in early 2011 which is 2010 Model.

PB freezes when idle, need to close and open display to un-freeze

My PB seems to go to sleep fine when it's been idle for awhile and I've left the display open but when I go to use it, it seems to be frozen. The display comes back on and the curser moves but nothing happens. If I close the lid and re-open it, it will do everything I asked it to while frozen (ie, if I clicked on a window it will go to it or if I clicked on a menu, it will open it). It seems to be getting worse now though. The first time I close and open the lid after a freeze-up, the screen goes black and you can see the curser but nothing else. It will work again fine on the second close and open cycle. All this started happening when I got it back after having the HD replaced. I have done the ctrlcommand+PR trick. Nothing changed. Anyone have any answers?

Is the Home button physically broken? If so, you can use the multitasking gestures to get to the Home screen (the four/five finger pinch).
See Settings > General > Multitasking Gestures to turn ON.

Connection keynote remote - keynote freezes... help!

Hi there!
I am using keynote for a couple of years for business presentation, the last year using keynote remote on an iPod touch, which works fine, connects via Wifi with the main computer and so it goes! Then came iOS 4.0... and: without any chance to reproduce this fault - the connection simply freezes at a certain time, sometimes after 5 minutes, most times after 30 or more minutes, and nothing ever happens at all and I am in the mid of my presentation! I am using keynote extensively and need urgent help!! Thanx!

I had a Edge connection that was using a different IP. Once I got rid of that, everything works like a charm.

G4 Freezes on Idle

I just recently put OS 10.4.7 on my powerpc and it seems to freeze whenever it has been idle for a few minutes. It wasn't acting this way previously, but then again I had made some other enhancements to the computer as well. First, I added a switch so that my pc and my mac can share a monitor, keyboard and mouse. I upgraded to 10.4.7 around the same time i installed the switch. Other than that, I really only use it for one program and the specs seem to be on par with the program. here are my mac specs....
400 mHz cpu speed
512 sdram
bus speed 100 mhz
L2 Cache 1MB
Help!!!!!!!

I had the mac system screensaver "flury" set. But i just selected no screensaver and i'll see if that works. It usually feezes even before the screensaver comes on.

Remote Management Freezes computers

When ever I remote manage a user who is running an application in the Oracle instant client it freezes there Internet Explorer. I have to force the program to end now and then the user can go back into the oracle app and everything works fine.
Any Ideas??? Kind of a big problem being that most users call with a problem in Oracle and we cant see the problem since we freeze everything when we remote manage.

Envy 15 freezes when idle

Hi,
I've bought brand new HP Envy 15 about 4 months ago. I observed sporadic hangs during this time, but it happened not too often, so I did not pay attention to that. But recently situation changed dramatically.
If laptop was powered off more then 1 hour, it completely hangs on boot, and it takes about 4-5 hard reboots to make it work. Moreover, if I leave it idle with no applications running, it hangs with OS booted. Even HP recovery tools that supposed to restore laptop to factory settings hang.
First I checked for driver/bios updates, nothing helped. Then I thought it is a sort of hard disk/memory problem, but *all* built-in tests provided with laptop (full hard disk surface scan, memory test, etc.) pass. I also tried to install Ubuntu on this laptop, but behavior is the same.
I also noticed that if I create a simple "while(true)" program (that will for sure load one CPU core) and keep it running, laptop works for weeks just fine, but once that program is stopped, laptop hangs in seconds. So I assume this is a kind of power-saving issue with one of hardware components. Is it a known issue?
Laptop is Envy 15 (product number A9P60UA), tested on Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit and Ubuntu 12.04 64-bit

I am also having similar freezing issues. I have an iMac G5 2.0ghz machine.
My problem is that the system completely freezes up, so I have to turn off the computer using the power button.
Upon restart, the computer will just sit at the grey screen with the Apple logo and hang. The fans cycle at full tilt, but nothing.
I have now performed an erase and install 3 times, and I'm very upset with this upgrade. I have wasted the last two weekends on this garbage.
Apple phone support suggested it might be a USB peripheral that I had attached, so I've tried unhooking everything.
I have no weird apps installed, and only use the computer lightly for mostly internet stuff... Mail and Safari, and a bit of iPhoto and iTunes.
I am convinced my problems are not unique, and this should have been picked up in beta testing!

Computer freezes after idle after installing yosemite

I would like to know if there is a way to uninstall yosemite and go back to mountain lion, everytime I come back from idle my mini mac freezes and I have to constantly restart my mini mac to get it to work

You can downgrade by repartitioning the drive, then reinstalling Mountain Lion from your backup made prior to installing Yosemite. If you have no backup then you can use Internet Recovery if your hardware supports it: Computers that can be upgraded to use OS X Internet Recovery.
Install OS X Using Internet Recovery
Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
Boot to the Internet Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND-OPTION- R keys until a globe appears on the screen. Wait patiently - 15-20 minutes - until the Recovery main menu appears.
Partition and Format the hard drive:
Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
After DU loads select your newly installed hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall OS X: Select Reinstall OS X and click on the Install button. Be sure to select the correct drive to use if you have more than one.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
This should restore the version of OS X originally pre-installed on the computer.
If your model does not support the above, then you must install Snow Leopard:
Clean Install of Snow Leopard
Be sure to make a backup first because the following procedure will erase
the drive and everything on it.
     1. Boot the computer using the Snow Leopard Installer Disc or the Disc 1 that came
         with your computer. Insert the disc into the optical drive and restart the computer.
         After the chime press and hold down the "C" key. Release the key when you see
         a small spinning gear appear below the dark gray Apple logo.
     2. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue
         button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
         After DU loads select the hard drive entry from the left side list (mfgr.'s ID and drive
         size.) Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window. Set the number of
         partitions to one (1) from the Partitions drop down menu, click on Options button
         and select GUID, click on OK, then set the format type to MacOS Extended
         (Journaled, if supported), then click on the Apply button.
     3. When the formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer. Proceed
         with the OS X installation and follow the directions included with the installer.
     4. When the installation has completed your computer will Restart into the Setup
         Assistant. Be sure you configure your initial admin account with the exact same
         username and password that you used on your old drive. After you finish Setup
         Assistant will complete the installation after which you will be running a fresh
         install of OS X. You can now begin the update process by opening Software
         Update and installing all recommended updates to bring your installation current.
Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1. You can then upgrade to Mountain Lion provided you have a Mountain Lion installer.

Apple Remote Desktop freezes during installation

I have installed the ARD 3.0 but whne I go to start it up it freezes at the Task Server screen. Also, when I start the application I have to put in my seriel number in everytime.

could be your running it from a user account and not an admin account
try loging in on the admin account and setting what features you wish none admin users
to be able to access

Os x remote install freezes on Macbook Air (June 2009); now what?

I'm trying to remote install and erase my disk so that I can get this Macbook Air restored to factory settings, but it's stalled and frozen 1/4 of the way with the rainbow wheel running on the Macbook Air to be restored. I don't want to quit and ruin the machine, what do I do?

Found a good guide for your requirement.

Unplugging all network devices from Fios router prevents DVR freezing and remote control lock ups.

All,
I recently had a Verizon tech visit my house due to constant DVR and remote control freezing. TV content was freezing whether it was locally recorded, pulled from another DVR in the house, or On Demand. On a hunch after the tech tested everything and was about to leave, he unplugged my gigabit switch from the Fios router. Lo and behold everything started running perfectly. Since to the tech, the problem was solved, he closed the case and was on his way. The probem is of course I have more devices than the built in router switch provides ports for. My network is compised of an 8 port Netgear gigabit switch downstream from the Fios router with two wireless access points (with their own built in gigbait switches) connecting to the Netgear gigabit switch. There are no loops in the switch topology. I've tried changing out the router, the gigabit switch, removing the wireless acces points individually as well as plugging the access points directly into the Fios router switch (one at a time with no Netgear switch in the middle) and all scenarious cause the DVR/remote control freeezing to come back. The only devices I can plug into the Fios router without causing freezes are PC's....anything with it's own switch essentially brings the network to it's knees. If anyone has an idea how to get my network back in one piece AND make the DVR's/remotes behave, I'd greatly appreciate the help!
My Fios equipment:
MI-424WR GEN-3I rev I (eye) running firmware 40.19.36
5 Motorola HD-DVRs all QIP 7232-2 running software release 1.9.1 platform build 25.39 (Oct. 22, 2012)
Specific config:
75/35 Fios connecting via ethernet from ONT. Set-top boxes connect to Fios router coax port via powered splitter.
*All SNR/dB mesasurements taken by the tech from the set-top boxes and router are well within spec.
Fios router provides DHCP addressing. Wireless N access points are configured for roaming with the same SSID and non-overlapping channels. Access points are not providing routing or IP adressing...all layer 3 and up services still provided by Fios router

I am inclined to echo several of the "tns" comments, particularly with respect to your splitter. My layout is based on a standard 8-port splitter of the type usually supplied in a VZ install. In addition I do have a ChannelPlus device that functions as a powered splitter, but its use is limited to distribution of secondary TV signals to older analog TVs. My first point then is that this may be an offender as "tns" has suggested.
In addition, I'd describe your wiring as "non-standard" (red-colored items in the above diagram)  As you're no doubt aware, with 75/35 you don't really need Cat5e from the ONT (your original diagram). It seems the highest tiers do require it, but in "standard" installations this run is coax directly to an 8-port non-powered splitter (below diagram), then from that splitter via coax to all STBs and CableCards, other TVs, et.), and also to the Actiontec.   Subsequent feeds from the Actiontec to wired devices (including WAPs) are via Ethernet (typically Cat 5e).
In fact I don't immediately see how your STBs get additional services such as On Demand and IMG with the wiring shown in your diagram (perhaps someone can help me out here). In "standard" installs the Actiontec must be connected via coax to the ONT to provide such services to other network clients. I don't see that requirement being met here.
For starters I'd recommend that you change your service from WAN Ethernet to WAN coax. This can easily be accomplished over the telephone. Then I'd run coax directly from the ONT to the Actiontec as in my revised diagram below (blue-colored items). If your setup can manage with this arrangement, I think it will help greatly with the "freezing" issue.

Subsequent Note: You provided additional info while I was composing a response, and I'd like to offer another comment. Structured wiring "panels" of the type usually available are pre-configured to provide data, phone and video. This usually means that one is in certain respects limited by the ideas of the panel designer. I have what can be called a structured wiring layout, but it really is composed of individual small custom networks for each service (automation, security, video, data, telco, etc.), configured so that all wiring terminates in "home run" fashion at a central panel (a few details here: http://forums.verizon.com/t5/Home-Networking/Cmon-Show-Us-Your-Network/m-p/481733#M765 ). This layout makes it easier to make adjustments (and there have been quite a few over the intervening years). I'm thinking that in your case you may have to abandon the powered splitter (presumably) built into the panel in order to avoid your present fix.
Subsequent Subsequent Note:   From your description it seems that you are using more than a single "whole house" DVR to supply programming to other devices. This is a bit puzzling to me because somewhere along the line I recall reading that only a single whole house DVR was allowed on the network. Can you elaborate a bit?
