Remote Desktop Connection attempted with 2 users already connected no longer gets dialog showing who is connected and option to force user off
On Windows 2008 Server R2, when the maximum number of users are connected via Remote Desktop (2) and another user attempts to connect via Remote Desktop, the user is prompted with a login dialog. Upon login, a dialog is shown with the User Id's of the
users who are connected, their current state (active or idle for x minutes) and it gives you the option to request access from a user or to force a user off. Recently our server stopped displaying this message and now only gives an error message that it cannot
connect. It does not show the login dialog, just an immediate connection error message. So now we don't know who is logged into the server. This presents a problem with many users who need to deploy software or manage server resources. What setting could have
changed that would stop displaying the login and the current users dialog? Thanks!
i can't seem to reproduce this, I played around with my server's NLA settings, looked at RDS GPOs, the options in the RDP listener, checked the user account in AD, just can't see what would be blocking this
would it make a difference if one of the RDP spots is occupying the server's console or not?
are the users trying to come in when the two sessions are already used up using the /admin or /console switch?
in the meantime, you can try using tsadmin.msc to kick people off
you may also want to try testing this with various different OS and RDP client versions to see if that's the issue. win7 with RDP 8.1 client doesn't seem to have any problems for me

Hi every one if i connect wired headset to my new iPad it is not showing a headphone connected symbol .is it by default not visible or something happen thanks in advance
When you have kernel panics, the pertinent information is in the panic report.
These instructions must be carried out as an administrator. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.
Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
In the Console window, select
DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION ▹ System Diagnostic Reports
(not Diagnostic and Usage Messages) from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
There is a disclosure triangle to the left of the list item. If the triangle is pointing to the right, click it so that it points down. You'll see a list of reports. A panic report has a name that begins with "Kernel" and ends in ".panic". Select the most recent one. The contents of the report will appear on the right. Use copy and paste to post the entire contents—the text, not a screenshot.
If you don't see any reports listed, but you know there was a panic, you may have chosen Diagnostic and Usage Messages from the log list. Choose DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION instead.
In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report.
I know the report is long, maybe several hundred lines. Please post all of it anyway. -
I have reset my iPod because it had been locked out and I couldn't get back in, but it will only reset once it connects to a WiFi source. I cannot get onto my iPod to connect it to a WiFi source. How am I meant to reset/erase it?
Just what do you mean by " but it will only reset once it connects to a WiFi source."?
If it it says turn off FIndMyiPhone then:
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

hey Apples Users,
my iPod 80 GB ins not showing in windows, itunes and my computer
Could anyone in there show me the best solution for the same
thanks in advanceFirst of all does, the iPod power on okay?
Have you tried plugging the iPod into a different USB ports, preferably a high powered USB 2.0 port on the back of your PC tower (these are directly soldered onto the motherboard and receive much high outputs of power than the ones on the front).
What about a different USB sync cable?
What shows up on the iPod's screen when you connect it? Does it charge at all? Maybe try resetting it with it still connected to your PC. To do this, press and hold both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.

2008 R2 Remote Desktop Services Problems With Older RDP Clients
I recently deployed a new 2008 R2 server to serve as a Terminal Server (Remote Desktop Services) for about 30 people. The new server is replacing a 2003 server. I expected the new machine to be a considerable upgrade and was looking forward to happy people
and less problems. Reality is I am finding several unexpected headaches - discouraging considering the amount of money we have spent on the new machine.
Most of the users connect via HP thin clients, they are the T5510, T5520 and T5530 thin clients. What I have found is performance issues when connecting via these thin clients. I believe the RDP client on these thin clients is RDP 5.5 or earlier. And I do
not believe it is possible to upgrade the RDP client version on the thin clients - I guess they are to be seen as "disposable".
The performance issues are: black blocks appearing when connected - and I have deselected bitmap caching - makes no difference. When typing in certain places the display of the typed characters could not keep up with the user. And lastly I have a weird thing
that just popped up today; where if the user goes to Google it freezes up their entire environment - I cannot even remote control the user/session - why this came up today and was not a problem before I am not sure.
With all of the above issues I have found that the problem goes away or does not exist if I connect to the server using an RDP client on an XP or 7 computer. So I have to conclude the RDP client is the problem.
Does anyone have information on this? Is there anything I can do as far as configuration on the server to allow me to use these older RDP clients? Do I have any alternative other than buying new thin clients?
thanks!From your description, I also agree that the problem may be in the top RDP client.

Upgrading RDP to the latest version of HP Web site.
Let thin clients use to connect to the Remote desktop server with low load.
(1) Open the Remote desktop client in customer’s Thin Client
(2) Click Advanced option. In choose your connection speed to optimize performance area, you can select the low load option. For example, modem(56kbps).
I noticed that you have deselected bitmap caching in Remote Desktop Client options, but makes no difference. You can try again. Then please remember disconnect idle sessions and rational allocation of resources in Terminal Server.

Remote Web Access (remote desktop gateway) issue with WHS2011
I have been using Remote Web Access on my Windows Home Server 2011 for several years with no problems. Over the past several weeks, though, I have been receiving an error when I try to connect to a computer through WHS's Remote Web Access:
"...the Remote Desktop Gateway is temporarily unavailable." Interestingly, when I try to connect from a Windows 8.1 computer, I just get a dialog box that says "Initiating connection," but the connection is never established. I cannot
find any relevant errors in any of the event logs.
I have read numerous articles relating to WHS configuration and port forwarding, but these do not have any information that addresses my situation. I have ports 4125, 80, and 443 forwarded to my Home Server. As I said, everything has been working fine with
this configuration until several weeks ago -- I suspect it might have something to do with a .NET Framework 4.5 update that was recently installed (and that has now been uninstalled), but that is the only change I can think of.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!Hi,
As you have commented that after installing .Net framework you are facing this issue. So after uninstalling still you are facing the same issue. Apart from installing .Net framework 4.5, have you installed or done any other change on your server?
Here you can check that “Remote Gateway Service” is running. Please check and restart the service if it’s stop. Apart you can check below 2 article for more detail step.
1. Can’t connect to the remote computer because the Remote Desktop Gateway server is temporarily unavailable error via SBS 2011
2. This computer can't connect to the remote computer because the Terminal Services Gateway server is temporarily unavailable (Try to perform the steps as suggested for
WHS 2011)
Hope it helps!
Thanks,

Can't access remote desktop on Macbook with XP
I have Macbook with Bootcamp loaded. I am unable to connect to my remote desktop at work from the laptop. My work requirements are for a computer with XP and Internet Explorer.
I continually get an error stating, 'The client could not access the remote computer. Remote connections might not be enabled or the computer might be too busy to accept new applications. It is also possible that network problems are preventing your connection. Please try connection again later. If problem continues, please contact your administrator.'
I am able to log in from a PC running the same version of XP. I have checked all settings I can think on both computers and they are identical. I can't get support help at work. As soon as I tell them I'm running a Mac, they hang up on me.
Any ideas what would be preventing this connection on the Mac? After using the Bootcamp software, I tried Parallels for the Mac as well and get the same issue.Have you examined the XP system event log (Admin Tools->Event Viewer->System)? I'd expect RDP errors with searchable message ids to be reflected here. Probably a good idea to check the logs on the target machine too ..

Howto access with Remote Desktop a Xserve with firewall service on
Hello,
When I activate the firewall service of a Xserve running the OSX Server (10.4.11), I cannot anymore connect to the Xserver with Apple Remote Desktop. I opened different ports which seemed to be related with ARD but without success.
What should I do to allow the ARD access when firewall is running ?
JeanHave a look at this: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1629
Make sure you're opening all of the required ARD ports. -
Apple Remote Desktop - Using it with a dynamic IP Address
Hello.
I'd like to use Apple Remote Desktop on a computer that has a dynamic IP. That makes it pretty hard to access the computer if the IP changes.
I remember that Timbuktu had a "find the computer" feature that would let you register an e-mail address and attach it to a computer running their software. you could use timbuktu to find the e-mail address, and their server would attach it the the machine's IP, and you'd always connect.
Does Apple Remote Access have any feature like this? If not, is there any way to access a machine when the IP changes periodically?
Thanks,
---------------SHi Steve
I've always used the free DynDNS service, coupled with DynDNS Updater software on the computer you want to access. The software reports to the service when its IP changes, and the service gives you a fixed domain name such as mycomputer.dyndns.org, which you can then use from ARD.

Remote desktop not working with WAAS
I've got the WAAS setup and i'm see ok acceleration between sites but I have a complete failure of remote desktop. I've had to place a deny statement in my access list on the remote sites router for port 3389 to exclude traffic from the WAAS to even be able to get an RDP connection to work. I've tried to tell the WAAS to just set Remote-Desktop traffic to pass through but still no luck. Any help would be appreciated.
Because Internet access is allowed directly from the remote sites the ACL below will only redirect traffic destined for private addresses to the 474 located at the remote site.

Remote desktop not working with dot1x authenticated machines
Hi,
we are using machine and user authentication , when machine at logoff the machine is authenticated so users can RDP to it
but after logging in the remote desktop session goes down because after user authentication the machine gets a new ip address .
is there any way to avoid this issue ?I am back after a hectic week on this issue...I could find out something very interesting... At times of convergence, the new path takes sometime to calculate the MRU... Mean to say when you issue the command ping mpls pseudowire destn .. The new path has an MRU of 0 for some 5 seconds..After 5-6 seconds MRU comes back with 1700..This screws up the applications like mail synchronization etc.
Apart from this I found a lot of OSPF flapping due to aggresive BFD timers also, which creates issues with remote desktop. I am unable to convince myself on the MRU issue why it happens. IOS issues on 6524?? -
