Remote Desktop Connection not working

I am able to remote desktop connect to my home computer from work; however, I can't remote desktop connect to my work comptuer and server. I believed it has something to do with my Linksys E3000 access point settings but I'm not sure where to look for and verify. I took my home laptop to work and able to do remote desktop connect to the server. I also took a laptop that's working fine with remote desktop connect to the server home and tried to remote desktop connect to the server at work and it's not working. Therefore, I've concluded that it has something to do with the access point and not the settings in the computer because it works fine when I took it out of my home network. I also VPNP in to my work place so that it has the same IP address as at work and still, remote desktop connection from home to work is not working. Any suggestion is much appreciated.

Connecting from home to your remote desktop server has nothing to do with your router. Certain ports are needed to be opened from the server’s end in order to host an application. Try to connect your computer to your modem or to another wireless network just to check if your work’s remote desktop will work. In case it will not work, then contact your IT guy.
If you read my previous post it said:
"I took my home laptop to work and able to do remote desktop connect to the server.

I think my above statement answers your question of "Try to connect your computer to your modem or to another wireless network just to check if your work’s remote desktop will work." However, your statement prompts me think of something else. What I have tried is bring my laptop to work and tried connect via RDC to the server and it works but it just not working when trying at home. What I have not done is instead of brining my laptop to work and try RDC there, perhaps I should I try it on a friend's or relative's network and see if I can do RDC to my server at work. If this does not work as well, then, could it be that at work there is something something outside RDC coming? But even if this is so, why can't VPN work?

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.

Remote Desktop Connection Stopped Working when Disconnecting

Hi I have a fresh clean install of Windows 8.1. Whenever I RDP into another Windows 8 machine... upong disconnecting I get the error: "Remote Desktop Connection Stopped Working"
I have tried not mapping to remote printers, or drives (smart cards etc.) and it still persists. When I remote to Windows Server or Win 7, it does not happen.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thank you
mi

FYI, same issue here, Windows 8.1 on ThinkPad W520 (upgraded from Windows 8).
Even without Fingerprint Manager, and having uninstalled ThinkVantage Password Manager as well, still crashes. I also tried the:
Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
but no luck, my mstsc.exe is still crashing when the remote session window is closed.
Any ideas? Happy to upload/provide more details, here's the Report.wer contents from

Remote Desktop Connection stopped working

I made a change to my Verizon TV and Internet package, downgrading from Ultimate HD to Extreme HD and from 35/35 to 25/25. This morning, when I ran a speed test it showed the new speed. I went out for a few hours, and when I returned, my internet connection was not working at all.
I called Verizon's support number and, after talking to two different people, one who wanted to swap out my router, and one who wanted to send a tech to check out my ONT, they finally figured out the problem was with their configuration, not any of the hardware in my house, and got me running again at the correct speed.
During the trouble shooting process, they had me do multiple soft and hard reboots of my router, they remotely rebooted it, and had me push the recessed reset button once, restoring it to factory defaults. This led to problems with my wireless devices, so I loaded a configuration file to the router that I had thankfully saved some time prior to this problem, and everything seemed to be working properly.
Then, I tried to open a remote desktop connection from one of my machines to another one, both on my internal home network, a connection that had worked flawlessly up until now, and it would not work. Moreover, trying to ping the "remote" machine from the one trying to initiate the connection gets no reply, but pings are replied to in the other direction. And, both machines can see and access each other's shared folders and files, and both can see each other in the network map in the networking and sharing control panel app.
I never made any configuration changes to either machine during the trouble shooting process, but to be sure, I used system restore on both machines and took them back to restore points made yesterday, when everything was working.
I am at a loss to understand what has gone wrong, and would appreciate any constructive and helpful suggestions as to how to remedy this situation.
ps
I am running two different web servers on the target machine, and am running stunnel on it to provide secure nntp connections to a news client that doesn't have that capability built in, and none of these servers are available from other machines. Nothing seems to be getting through to the target pc except windows network sharing!

A perfect example. At least two game consoles. Any two (Two Xboxes, two Playstations, One Xbox and one Playstation).
#3 If you have at least two special computers that support UPnP where you can not define the ports that they use....
Do you only use one at time or are there times when at least two are on?
#4 In the router go to Advanced -> IP Address Distribution Or to Advanced -> Private LAN
#5 What is the Starting and Ending IP Address, that is listed in there?
We have two Xboxes and a Logitech Revue. I have Windows Media Sharing enabled on three computers, and am also running a beta of Logitech Media Server on one. It is possible that there are times when two or more streaming clients are in operation, but that is a very rare occasion. Two of the computers, the ones I mention in my original post, are on almost continuously.
In Advanced -> Universal Plug and Play, both Allow Other Network Users to Control Wireless Broadband Router's Network Features and Enable Automatic Cleanup of Old Unused UPnP Services are checked, and WAN Connection Publication: is set to Publish Only the Main WAN Connection.
In Advanced -> IP Address Distribution, under Dynamic IP Range it says192.168.1.2 - 192.168.1.254. However, in Advanced -> IP Address Distribution -> Connection List I have set all the lease types to Static, because I was having problems using the Verizon web page to access my set top boxes, particularly the MRDVR. The Static IP addresses for the computers, game consoles, Bluray player etc. are in the range 192.168.1.2 - 192.168.1.12, and the set top boxes are at 192.168.1.100 & 192.168.1.101.
One thing I did not mention in my original post is that I have two unmanaged gigabit ethernet switches in my home network. There are two computers, the ones I mention in my original post, and the Logitech Revue plugged into one switch. That switch plugs into another switch which also has one pc, an Xbox, and a Bluray player plugged into it, and that switch then plugs into one of the ports on my Verizon supplied Actiontec MI424-WR Rev C, firmware version 4.0.16.1.56.0.10.14.4. All of the other ethernet ports on the router are unused. In addition, we have a laptop, a notebook, another Xbox, and a Wii that connect through the Actiontec's wireless.
I don't know if media streaming is still working and I don't really care if it is because we use it so seldomly. It never worked consistently or to our satisfaction. When we want to watch or listen to media from one computer on another, we copy it over the network from shared folders. We have a Homegroup, to which all of the computers belong. If we want to watch or listen to media on one of the game consoles, we copy it to a flash drive. The Bluray player is only connected to the network for firmware updates and for discs with network enabled content.
This same setup was operating before the problem developed, and I can't figure out what has changed to create the problem. The router configuration file that I am using is from June of 2011, and I'm pretty sure that everything was working fine then, and don't recall making any changes to the router's configuration since then.

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.

Trouble with Remote Desktop Connection to work PC

Note that I am trying to log into my work PC from my mac at home. My company recently announced we could log in from home with a mac into our work PC. they can't get it to work so I thought I'd try here. We use a mobile site on Safari to obtain a network connection - it launches a program called network connection and I appear to have that network connection (although very little data is being sent and received). I am then supposed to launch a program called Remote Desktop Connection (this program was installed from steps I ran through the first time I logged in through the mobile site, it is version 1.0.3), but when I do, it will not connect and the error message is that remote connection is not enabled, network is too busy, etc). However, the guys at the support desk using PCs can log into my work computer. The only info that's mandatory to input on the Remote Desktop Connection is my work computer name. I don't think this is the issue, because if I purposefully use an incorrect name for my work computer, the error message is different, stating it can't find my (work) computer. I also installed the most recent version of Java for 10.3.x The only issues I can think of are a) this won't work with 10.3.9, although I doubt this is it as the Remote Desktop Connection program appears a few years old, OR there is some firewall issue on my mac. I doubt that this is it, as I assume the mac's firewall protections are to prevent others from remotely logging into my mac, not prevent me from using my mac to remotely log into my work PC. Also, I don't use any third party firewall or other protection stuff on my mac other than whatever comes stock. if you've read this far, thanks, and any comments appreciated! am trying to log in using my dual 1.8 g5 with 1.5g memory using 10.3.9

Are you by any chance with a major retailer? My company just did the same thing. We used to connect via a Virtual Drive connection, but they took that away and went to RDC.
I had problems at first logging in as well. It was acting as if my password was wrong, but I knew that wasn't the case. I finally typed the password in the UserName area and found the problem!
I had two special Characters followed by a capital letter. For instance !@Axxxxxxxx. When I typed the password, I would push and hold the 'shift' key for the first three letters. When typing that in the "user name" field, it showed as !2axxxxxxx. You have to release the 'shift' key and repress it for each letter.
I hope this helps you!

Remote Desktop Connection Not Going To Full Screen on EIZO MX340 Monitor 1536x2048 Resolution

I am using a EIZO Rx-340 as a secondary monitor. So far I am only able to get into full screen by using Ctrl-Alt-Fn-Pause but it does not change the resolution. It does not help to move the slider to large. There is a black space at the top and bottom
of the display.

Hi,
Please take a try with the steps below:
1. Start "Remote Desktop Connection".
2. Click on "Options".
3. Click on the "Display" tab.
4. On "Display configuration" settings, you can change the "Remote Desktop Connection" display by moving the slider from "Small to Large".
5. By moving the "Slider" all the way to large, the display settings will automatically set to "Full Screen".
Here is the screenshot:
Also please take a check if the monitor itself is configured well.
Hope this may help

Remote Desktop Ports Not Working

Hello, I am trying to set up my new laptop with Remote Desktop. I have Norton 360 on it and a linksys EA6900 router.
And this is all on my home network.
My issue is that I cant seem to connect to the laptop to the port 3391 I opened up on it. I have two other PCs that are wired
at 3389 and 3390 and are totally fine.
I changed the RDP port number in regedit to 3391. Forwarded the port to the laptops reserved IP (1.23.25.250) and I even allowed
the port in the firewall for norton and in windows firewall for fun.
Even doing all that I still cannot connect even though I did the same for my two other PCs and theyre fine.
I can for some reason ping everything out of my laptop but not to it.
Whrn I use a port checker tool it does say 3391 is not open but 3389 and 3390 are which is weird to me.
Hope someone can help out, thank you.

Hi cmcigas,
“I can for some reason ping everything out of my laptop but not to it”
To verify whether it is related to the firewall ,we can temporarily turn off the firewall to have a check .
Here is a link for reference of this issue
Nobody Can Ping My Computer
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc749323(v=ws.10).aspx
We may also need to run the built-in troubleshooter tool to have a diagnostic of the network .
Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Troubleshooting\Network and Internet\Network Adapter and Incoming Connections
" I even allowed the port in the firewall for norton and in windows firewall for fun."
How did you set the firewall ?
To set the firewall ,here is a link for reference
Open a port in Windows Firewall (It is an example in Windows 7,the Windows 8.1 can share the same step)

Mac Remote Desktop Printing not working

I have the following:
TS 2k3
Mac 10.5.6 with a AIO 6410 connected via USB
RDP 2.0 client for the Mac
I have installed the printer drivers on the server
The RDP client has the printer associated with it.
Printing fails. I'm thinking it has to do with the ports associated with the printer driver on the server
HELP

Printing on MAC osx never worked for me until i found this tool.

REMOTE DESKTOP (MICROSOFT) NOT WORKING SINCE YOSEMITE UPDATE. ANY ONE KNOW A FIX FOR THIS ?

MICROSOFT RDP HAS WORKED FINE WITH YOSEMITE.
AIRPORT UTILITY IS UP TO DATE.
SINCE YOSEMITE UPGRADE THERE IS NO ABILITY TO CONNECT FROM HOME TO OFFICE.
IOS DEVICES CAN CONNECT BUT THEY ARE CELLULAR ANYWAY SO IT SEEMS TO BE CONNECTED TO THE WIFI NETWORK.
I AM RUNNING MY CONNECTION TO THE INTERNET ON A RECENTLY PURCHASED NETGEAR ROUTER.
THERE IS ALSO A TIME CAPSULE IN MY SETUP.
ANY SUGGESTIONS ?

Thats a good point. Let's troubleshoot network connectivity.
Open RDP, right click your connection and select edit, then copy the PC name.
open terminal Finder > Utilities > Terminal and type the following
telent YourPCName 3389
where "YourPCName" is the name you copied above. Hit enter
You won't get a "success" message or anything, if the terminal window just goes blank, then there is not a firewall/network issue.
If you clearly get an error, then it's either Firewall or DNS. Try the following in terminal
ping YourPCName
if it starts showing an IP address, line by line by line, then it is definatelly a firewall issue
if not, trying getting the IP address from the winders box by opening a command prompt and type
ipconfig
do all the above again but use the IP address in place of YourPCName

Remote desktop connections not showing in server manager 2012 for one of the session hosts

This is a three server deployment with one server being the connection broker, gateway, licensing, etc with two session host only servers.
rdmgr
rd1
rd2
Using the server manager on the rdmgr connection broker (or any other server for that matter) yields only connections from rd2 with nothing from rd1 displaying.
Users can connect to rd1 without issue.
At one point rd1 had the connection broker role installed also but high availability was not setup. I removed the role hoping it would correct the problem but no luck.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hi,
1. Is rd1 part of a collection?
2. On rd1, in Computer Management, is the broker's computer account a member of the local RDS Management Servers group?
3. If you run the below command do you get a list of sessions:
query user /server:rd1
4. Any errors/warnings in either the broker's or rd1's event log?
Broker: Event Viewer\ Applications and Services Logs\ Microsoft\ Windows\ TerminalServices-SessionBroker
rd1: Event Viewer\ Applications and Services Logs\ Microsoft\ Windows\ TerminalServices-SessionBroker-Client
Both: System and other logs

Remote Desktop connection and retina display

I've been trying to set up my new MacBook Pro [with Retina display 2015 edition]. I use a lot of university software via Remote Desktop connection, it worked very well on my Acer laptop. it's really important that that this staff works as good on my new computer. The problem is that when I open the connection on MacBook the display is not great - I can see pixels, just like my grandmas' TV from the 1970s. I tried with different resolution settings, making it bigger or smaller but the display is still not great. Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Should I assume from your reply that the solution lies with my corporate IT?

Remote Desktop Connection - Authentication error

Hello,
I wish to connect to my work PC from my laptop. The remote desktop connection was working fine till yesterday, but today i receive the following error when i try to connect -
"An authentication error has occurred. The Local Security Authority cannot be contacted. Remote Computer: <name>."
I have Win 7 ultimate installed on my 32 bit system, and have tried solutions proposed in the other threads. I do not require a NLA check for connection, i have always used the remote desktop with this option unchecked. Could anyone help me with this please?
Is this a error on my Laptop, or do i need to contact the network administrators for this?

Hi!
It could be as easy as you need to change your password on your domain accout.
Are both computers connected to the same domian or is your work computer connected to a domain and your laptop connected to a workgroup?
If your password has expired, this error can occur, so I would start to check that since it stoped working over night.
Best regards
