Remote Desktop Fail after March 10 Updates!

I updated client servers with MS updates as usual over the weekend remotely. Tried to remotely log into 2 of the servers after they rebooted; Server 2008 R2 and 2008 Standard, and was denied with "Your credentials did not work" message at the top
of the dialog. Administrator, other IDs did not work. Only way to log into either server was to drive into the client (on Sunday) and login from the console. Once logged in from the console I was able to RD into each. If the server is rebooted RD is again
unavailable until logged in from the console. I am now seeing that remote access works for a while but in some cases becomes unavailable after a while. The problem only seems to affect server 2008 and 2012 variants.
Backed out the following updates and the problem remained: KB3002657, KB3033929, KB3046049, KB3035131, KB3034344, KB3032359, KB3039066, KB3035132, KB3035126, KB3033889, KB3032323, KB3030377. Then I restored the System State from the day before the updates but
the problem is still present.
Unfortunately, this particular client has around 30 remote users who need to login every day. The only workaround I've found is to log their IDs in at the console first. Then they can connect remotely. Others have reported this problem and one post leads me
to believe it could be an issue with 2008/2012 RDS boxes on a 2003 Domain Controller. Any help appreciated or, MS: Please Get This Fixed!

We are both in the same boat.
While it's nice to know that Microsoft gives us these broken updates so we can charge customers, there is that "loyalty" factor to our customers in which we end up absorbing the many hours of troubleshooting and research time spent.
Failing to find a suitable solution to this problem by end of day I will attempt to remove ALL 27 Security Updates that were installed to see if this resolves the issue.
What scares me is that you probably removed the applicable ones and that we will be in the same situation after removal.

Unable to enable remote desktop (XDMCP) after jumpstart Solaris 10 U9

Hi,
I have installed Solaris 10 U9 using the jumpstart.
I would like to have enabled remote desktop (XDMCP) after installation.
But Solaris 10 U9 has this option disabled:
# ps -ef | grep dt
root 858 450 0 04:56:05 console 0:00 grep dt
root 730 1 0 04:41:39 ? 0:00 /usr/dt/bin/dtlogin -daemon -udpPort 0
I have copied dt config files to /etc:
# mkdir /etc/dt/config
# cp -r /usr/dt/config/* /etc/dt/config/.
Then in /etc/dt/config/Xconfig I've uncommented and added port number:
Dtlogin.requestPort: 177
After reboot this change in Xconfig doesn't enable XDMCP.
Do you know what to change to have XDMCP enabled after jumpstart installation?
Thanks,
Daniel

By default xdmcp will start on udp port 0. normally it should listen on 177.
Try this. you should be able to login through xdmcp after this.
#svccfg -s cde-login setprop 'dtlogin/args=""'
#svcadm restart cde-login

Remote desktop broken after 10.9.3 update

After the 10.9.3 update, remote desktop is completely broken...
The ard status monitor display : Apple Remote Desktop is disabled. I try a clean install (app + system library coreservice remote management + user library pref ans aap support deleted.
After the Remote Desktop 3.7.2 installed from the Apple Store when i try to launch the application i get this message : The remote desktop client does not mach the administrator software version. Check for update.
And this is the problem : there is no updates available !!!!
I have try to install some 3.7.1 client from some dmg, but all false : ARD agent validate multiple error ( on log) error 6405, fatal error 5, error 100, error 6404, broken pipe, fatal error 0
Now i am back to the clean uninstall and with the new Remote Desktop 3.7.2 with the desktop client not matching and not running...and without any update available.
thanks for help !

Nice idea and helping really !!!!
On safe mode, i could install an old remote desktop client (3.6.x) - and the client works fine as client.
Next i get the last Remote Desktop Admin from the Apple Store and it run also always in safe mode. No error, but all my setting were lost. With the Remote Desktop Admin running i created a new client installer and quit the Admin app for updating the client to the last release (3.7.1). I test all in safe mode (running as admin and as client) and finally reboot the computer to quit the safe mode.. and finally all was running again.
I don't know why during the 10.9.3 update Remote Desktop was corrupted...
Now i need to put back my remote client, but this not really a problem.
Thank a lot th Deadzak for his genius intuition.

Remote desktop fails, can still connect to event log and services.

I am unable for some reason to remote into a machine that I've been able to before. This occurred after it installed automatic updates. At the moment I can connect to
services and the event log from another machine with the same credentials, but I can't log onto the machine itself. Is there any way to reset this info or such. This machine is a part of a domain and can read credentials from the domain controller.
I also do know that remote desktop is enabled.
The following error occurs in the even log on the affected machine.

Hi,
The following methods could be used to resolve some of the most common problems.
Potential issues that may be seen:
1.) Remote Desktop endpoint is missing
Each virtual machine that is created should have a remote desktop endpoint for the VM at port 3389. If this endpoint is deleted then a new endpoint must be created. The public port can be any available port number. The private port (the port on the VM) must
be 3389.
2.) RDP fails with error: "The specified user name does not exist. Verify the username and try logging in again. If the problem continues, contact your system administrator or technical support."
RDP connection may fail when there are cached credentials. Please see the following article to resolve this problem:
http://www.c-sharpcorner.com/uploadfile/ae35ca/windows-azure-fixing-reconnect-remote-desktop-error-the-specified-user-name-does-not-exist-verif/
3.) Failure to connect to uploaded VHD
When a VHD is uploaded to Windows Azure you must make sure that Remote Desktop is enabled on the VHD and an apporopriate firewall rule is enabled on the VM to open port 3389 (Remote Desktop port).
Hope this helps!
Regards.

Hotsync fails after Microsoft update

I am using a Treo 650 (Sprint) and running WinXP Pro with Outlook 2002. Everything was working just fine until I got a message from Windows indicating that I needed to update Windows for a critical update. After the update I can no longer get my Treo 650 (Sprint) to connect for a hotsync. When I plug in the chord windows gives a recognition boop that new hardware have been detected; however, when I press the hotsysc button the hotsync fails indicating that it could not find the connection.
I have downloaded the latest software from Palm and installed it but that did not help.
Any help would be greatly apprecitated...

You will need to do a "clean" uninstall of Palm Desktop. Here are the instructions.
You should first make a copy of your data to have just in case something
happens. You can find your data files by going to C:\Program Files\Palm or
Palm One. Highlight your Palm Desktop username and right click and copy.
Then go to your PC desktop, right click on a blank spot and select paste.
For Palm desktop 6.2, look in the following location for the folders and files, my documents, PalmOS desktop. You will find the username folder in this location.
Now you want to uninstall Palm Desktop and remove everything that has to do
with Palm Desktop from your computer. Like the above folder, delete the Palm folder. Once this is done, you will need to delete some registry keys
from your PC Operating System registry.
Word of warning, going here and deleting the wrong thing can cause your PC
to not start up, crashing and deletion of programs and data. If you feel
you are unsure of yourself, see if you have a friend that can help you or a
PC technician that you can pay to help you. This will show them everything
they need to delete. To retain your current Registry settings, we need to do a backup of the Registry.
On the PC, go to start and run type "regedit" without quotes
Highlight MY COMPUTER, go to File --> export. Should pop up with a Save As
box. Current location is fine should be in My Documents or you can change to a location you will remember. In the file name box, type "Regbackup[todaysdate]" i.e. Regbackup07072008. Next, the hard part.
The easiest way to make sure your working with the correct key, highlight the key i.e. palm quick install, and press delete on your keyboard. It will ask you, are
you sure. Say yes. Do the same thing for all keys below.
If you make a mistake, stop what you are doing. And call a PC technician.
BUT do not turn off your computer.
The reg keys are as follows (Note: some of theses reg keys will not be here
but if they are delete them)
* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\U.S. Robotics\Palm Quick Install
* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\U.S. Robotics\PalmOne File Transfer
* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\U.S. Robotics\Pilot Desktop
* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Palm
* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Palm, Inc.
* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\PalmDesktopAutorun
* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\palmOne
* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\PalmSource
* HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\PalmSource or anything else that says palm
Next reboot your computer
Then reinstall your Palm desktop from the CD and do a hotsync. If it asks
you for a username and you synced your device before, put in 'test" if you
did not sync before you create a hotsync name.
For reference purposes, click on the following link for the support page for your device on the kb.palm.com webpage
http://kb.palm.com/SRVS/NUA/launchTab.asp?t=home&fn=treo&mn=650&cn=sprint
There are links on the page to the user guide, troubleshooting, how to's, downloads, etc.

Boot fails after security update

Greetings,
In installed the most recent security update this morning, and after restarting, my machine won't boot up.
I've followed the existing threads (in case you've also had this problem, the most informative was here:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1545171 )
Here's my machine's current state; I'd appreciate any input!
I booted to single user mode, and checked the disks using /sbin/fsck -fy . there were no errors reported.
I booted from my Install Disk 1, repaired the disk (again, no errors), and verified the disk.
Now, it still does not boot independently; it stalls at the apple logo. Safe boot does not work. It doesn't appear to be a PRAM or SMC issue.
What should my next move be? Thanks again!

There are no guarantees, but following this procedure when installing updates and upgrades on your Mac, or even re-installing them, will go a long way towards avoiding unpleasant after effects and ‘post-update stress disorder’.
It is also worth noting that it is an extreme rarity for updates to cause upsets to your system, but they may well reveal pre-existing ones, particularly those of which you may have been unaware. If you are actually aware of any glitches, make sure they are fixed before proceeding further.
So before you do anything else:
If you can, make a full backup first.
Turn off sleep mode for both screen and hard disk.
Disconnect all peripherals except your keyboard and mouse.
1. Repair Permissions (in Disk Utility)
2. Verify the state of your hard disk using Disk Utility. If any faults are reported, restart from your install disk (holding down the C key), go to Disk Utility, and repair your startup disk. Restart again to get back to your startup disk.
At least you can now be reasonably certain that your system does not contain any obvious faults that might cause an update/upgrade to fail.
3. Download the correct version of the COMBO or security update from the Apple download site. If your car runs on gasoline you would not want to fill the tank with diesel, so don’t try to install the PPC updater on an Intel Mac!
If you prefer to download updates via Software Update in the Apple menu (which would ensure that the correct version for your Mac was being downloaded), it is not recommended to allow SU to install major (or even minor) updates automatically. Set Software Update to just download the updater without immediately installing it. There is always the possibility that the combined download and install (which can be a lengthy process) might be interrupted by a power outage or your cat walking across the keyboard, and an interrupted install will almost certainly cause havoc. Once it is downloaded, you can install at a time that suits you. You should make a backup copy of the updater on a CD in case you ever need a reinstall.
Using the Combo updater ensures that all system files changed since the original 10.4.0 are included, and any that may have been missed out or subsequently damaged will be repaired. The Delta updater, although a temptingly smaller download, only takes you from the previous version to the new one, i.e. for example from 10.4.10 to 10.4.11. Software Update will generally download the Delta updater only. The preferable Combo updater needs to be downloaded from Apple's download site.
Now proceed as follows:
4. Close all applications.
5. Unplug all peripherals except your keyboard and mouse.
6. Install the update/upgrade. Do not under any circumstances interrupt this procedure. Do not do anything else on your computer while it is installing. Be patient.
7. When it ask for a restart to complete the installation, click restart. This can take longer than normal, there are probably thousands of files to overwrite and place in the correct location. Do nothing while this is going on.
8. Once your Mac is awake, repair permissions again, and you should be good to go!
If your Mac seems slightly sluggish or ‘different’, perform a second restart. It can’t hurt and is sometimes efficacious!
9. Open a few of your most used applications and check that all is OK. In this connection please remember that not all manufacturers of third party applications and plug-ins, add-ons, haxies etc, will have had time to do any necessary rewrites to their software to make them 10.4.10. compliant. Give them a weeks or two while you regularly check their websites for updates. This applies particularly to plug-ins for Safari 3.
N.B. Do not attempt to install two different updates at the same time as each may have different routines and requirements. Follow the above recommendations for each update in turn.
Lastly, Apple's own article on the subject of Software Update may also be useful reading:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106695
If you are updating Safari (or just have):
Input Managers from third parties can do as much harm as good. They use a security loophole to reach right into your applications' code and change that code as the application starts up. If you have installed an OS update and Safari is crashing, the very first thing to do is clear out your InputManagers folders (both in your own Library and in the top-level /Library), log out and log back in, and try again.
So, disable all third party add-ons before updating Safari, as they may not have been updated yet for the new version. Add them back one by one. If something goes awry, remove it again and check on the software manufacturer's website for news of an update to match your version of Safari. Remember: Tiger up to 10.4.10 used Safari 2.0.4 or, if you downloaded it, Safari 3.0.3 beta. Safari 10.4.11 used Safari 3.0.4 which was not a beta. If Safari 3.1.1 on 10.4.11 is not the fastest browser you have ever used, then something is wrong!
Moreover, trying to revert to Safari 3.0.4 (or worse still, version 2) when running 10.4.11 or 10.5 can have repercussions, as Safari 3.1.1 uses a completely different webkit on which other applications like iChat, Mail and Dashboard Widgets etc also rely, and may entail you having to reinstall an earlier operating system.
Most errors reported here after an update are due to an unrepaired or undetected inherent fault in the system, and/or a third party ad-on. Two such add-on that have been frequently mentioned here for causing such problems are Piclens and Pithhelmet. If you have them, trash them.
Additional tips on software installation here:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106692
To reiterate, Input Managers reach right into an application and alter its code. This puts the behavior of the affected application outside the control and responsibility of its developers: a recipe for problems. That's not to say that issues absolutely will ensue as a result of Input Managers, but you, as a user, must decide. If the functionality of a specific Input Manager or set thereof is really important to you, you may well choose to assume the associated risk.
Again, the advice is to remove all Input Managers from the following directories:
• /Library/InputManagers
• ~/Library/InputManagers
especially prior to system updates (they can always be added back one-by-one later).

Call fails after last update

Can anyone help me, after the last update from Apple to my iphone 3g I get call fail after call fail. It is getting embarassing at work where I rolled these phone out.

Standard troubleshooting is
1)Reset: reset your iPhone by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.
2)Restore as new or from backup: see page 141 of the manual for details...http://manuals.info.apple.com/enUS/iPhone_UserGuide.pdf
Note the last sentence of the Restore paragraph... "In iTunes, you can also restore from a backup without deleting data stored on iPhone."

Apple Remote Desktop 3.72 Shows Update in Store

I have been a many year user of Apple Remote Desktop, and have updated the administrative application routinely as available, as well as updating all of the client machines which I control.
My MacBook Pro Retina machine running OSX Yosemite with all of the current updates where I have ARD Admin installed is now showing that I need to update ARD to 3.72, in spite of the fact that ARD admin shows 3.72 as the current version installed on the machine.
When I go to Apple Store, Updates, the only update displayed is ARD. When I attempt to update, I get the message:
"Remote Desktop is already installed on this computer. Choose Software Update from the Apple menu to check for available updates."
This is not a crisis, but I would prefer not to be notified that I need to update, when I cannot, every time I go to Apple Store updates.
Any help appreciated....
Bill

I love it!
Apple: "You can safely ignore these messages."
Whew, I guess we had all been unsafely ignoring these messages till now.
Again, Apple: "You do not need to install this update [3.7.2] if you already have Remote Desktop 3.7.2 installed."
Thanks for clearing that up.
I'm sure the Apple design guidelines have something to say about sending messages that should be ignored.

Grey Desktop Background after Security Update

Updated with the latest OS software update, when prompted.
Immediately afterwards, desktop background was grey and without any images
Everything else appears fine. Just miss the image on my desktop

Hi jgpeebles,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand the concern of your desktop image going completely gray after an update. It sounds as though you may need to reassign your desktop picture. Please use the attached article for information on how to complete this process.
Mac Basics: Desktop
Change your background
You can change the picture that's displayed on your Mac's desktop. You can choose one of the desktop pictures that comes with your Mac, a solid color, or one of your own pictures.
Click the Launchpad icon in the Dock, and then click System Preferences. If you're using Mac OS X v10.6 or later, click the System Preferences icon in the Dock.
Click Desktop & Screen Saver, and then click Desktop.
To select the kind of desktop picture you want to use, do one of the following:
To use an image that come with your Mac, select a folder under the Apple section.
To use a solid color, select "Solid Colors" under the Apple section.
To use your own picture, select the Picture folder under "Folders," if the picture you want is stored in your Pictures folder. If your image is in another folder, click the Add button (+), then find and select the folder that your picture is in. Then, click Choose.
Select the picture you want in the box on the right.
Have a great day,
Joe

Live Migration Failed After Yum Update on 2.2.2

Hi,
I've live migrated vm's from node2 to node1 (master server). Put node2 into maintenance mode, then reconfigure ntp.conf to sync with our new ntp server. While in maintenance mode, I've also ran yum update which updated the kernel from 2.6.18-128.2.1.4.37.el5xen to 2.6.18-128.2.1.4.44.el5xen. In the process, xen was also updated from 3.4.0-0.1.32.el5 to 3.4.0-0.1.39.el5.
After rebooting, I've put node2 back into active mode. But now I can't live migrate the vm's back into node 2. From node1, ovs_operations.log:

Is this due to the different xen versions after the update? How can I live migrate the vm's back to node2 so that I can take node1 into maintenance mode to reconfigure ntp.conf and run yum update?
Thanks!

The next thing to try is to work though the steps in [[Error loading web sites]]. Though if this is happening on all of your computers it might have something to do with your internet connection. Maybe resetting that will help.

Mac App Store Connection Failed After Mavericks Update

Hi y'all,
immediately after I updated my Lion to Mavericks (10.9.1), I could not access no more Mac App Store: as I enter my (valid and active) Apple ID credentials, I receive a "Connection Failed" message (in red, in the same login dialog, under the user id field).
So I've tried to set to "Always Trust" all of my Class 3 Certificates in my Keychain, I removed all of the Mac Appstore plist files (appstore and storeagent), I've also tried to remove the network preferences plist file to reset my network interfaces preferences, I've also deleted the ocsp and crls cache files, and I've setup the ocsp and crls certificates preferences in my Keychain Access to off.
I obviously checked out my App Store account and it's correct and active - I'm also currently using it on my iPhone, iPad and iPod with no problem at all!
Anyway I wanted to try creating a new App Store account from the Mac AppStore itself: after I validated it, I tried to login into Mac AppStore... with no success!
So, NONE of the above mentioned attempts solved the problem, and I'm WORRIED and astonished wondering HOW APPLE COULD RELEASE A MAJOR O.S. UPDATE THAT SMASHES THE MAC APP STORE, WHICH IS ONE OF THE CORE APPS OF THIS O.S.!!! I use Mac OSes since many years and I never had O.S. problems (only some minor issue with third party applications out of Apple's scope and solved with some simple workaround).
CAN ANYBODY PLEASE HELP ME? :-)
THX IN ADVANCE,
DANI

[SOLVED] tp_smapi fails after system update (to 2.6.39)

I am currently running Arch Linux on my ThinkPad X41.
I am having troubles trying to get tp_smapi work on my system after the full system update that I did yesterday. I jumped from (12.2010) 2.6.36 to kernel 2.6.39. Since yesterday, tp_smapi was working perfectly, but after the update, it seems that the new kernel cannot recognize the tp_smapi module. I tried to remove and insert it again with modprobe tp_smapi, but I am getting: "FATAL: Module tp_smapi not found" every time.
As I have build tp_smapi from AUR, I removed it with pacman -Rd tp_smapi and installed my package again. Even removed hdapsd and reinstalled it again after tp_smapi and I am getting the same - the module could not be found.
I saw that there is a slightly newer tp_smapi in AUR, but currently I am not able to build the package, as I am getting some build() errors like: "gcc: error -pg and -fomit-frame-pointer are incompatible."
This PKGBUILD seems a patch for 2.6.37 kernel and probably could not build directly under the new kernel. Anyway, I am still not able to bring the good old tp_smapi to working condition.
Anyone with a working solution about this?
edit: I have posted this in another thread, but hope this should be useful in a separate topic.

Hey, SUCCESS out here...
@whompus, thanks so much for the precious advices and clues.
First, I looked into this thread (very useful as well): https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=80138
Following it, I found out a new gcc CFLAG argument, primary used in newer gcc versions (after gcc v4.2)
-march=native
According to the information, given it should automatically detects the features your CPU supports and sets the options appropriately.
Setting my /etc/makepkg.conf accordingly, and adding some other useful options, my tp_smapi package build succeded.
My new /etc/makepkg.conf

RPC Remote calls fail after loading sibling.

Hi All,
Main loads an app compiled in 3.2. Cannot recompile legacy SWF with version of Main.
Main and Client are on the same domain. Debugging on localhost.
Sibling has RemoteObject code but never makes RemoteObject calls.
Main apps remote calls start failing after sibling is loaded.
TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert
mx.messaging.messages::AcknowledgeMessage@c7ab831 to mx.messaging.messages.IMessage.
<mx:SWFLoader id="swfLoader"
        loadForCompatibility="true"
        trustContent="false"
        width="100%" height="100%"
        source="ClientGuiApp3-2.swf?fredOn=false"
        complete="swfComplete();"
        creationComplete="initNestedAppProps();"/>
What I have done to try to fix it.
trustContent = "False" to put it in its own security domain.
I thought loadForCompatability good enough to make them use their own class definitions?
Document I found says RPC special case for multiversion Sandbox or Bootstrap.
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Flex/4.0/html/WS2db454920e96a9e51e63e3d11c0bf69084-7f0c.html
loadForCompatibiity means sandboxing or new security domain for the sibling?
Thanks in advance,
Kevin

1. Remove the WinrmIIS Extension from "Programs and Features"
2. Reboot the server
3. Execute the cmd "winrm quickconfig". This adds an exception for the remote management in the Windows firewall.
4. Install "Winrm IIS extension
5. Try open Exchange Management Console
Let me know what happens :)
Thanks for your guide;
"WinRM IIS Extension" is not installed.and firewall is off.
When I open up the Exchange Management Console ,after these message :
<Initializing ...
Setting up Remote Powershell session to: ServerName.MyDomain.net ...>
I'm seeing these errors:
<The following error occurred when setting up Remote Powershell session to 'ServerName.MyDomain.net':
Closing remote server shell instance failed with the following error message : The WinRM client cannot complete the operation within the time specified. Check if the machine name is valid and is reachable over the network and firewall exception for Windows Remote Management service is enabled. For more information, see the about Remote Troubleshooting Help topic. >
also When I open up the Exchange Management Shell,After several hours the below message remain:
<VERBOSE:Connecting to ServerName.MyDomain.net >

Remote desktop issues after OS upgrade

I have a MACBook PRO that was loaded with MAC OS Snow Lepoard. I use this laptop to connect back to work via Barracuda and it worked without any issues. Now that I have updated to the Lion OS, can connect to the Barracuda site but when I attempt to connect to my computer the RDC crashes.

2 questions.
Have you downloaded the latest RDC version from Microsoft?
Microsoft Remote Desktop Connection Mac OS X Client (free)
<http://www.microsoft.com/mac/products/remote-desktop/default.mspx]]>
Have you tried an alternative RDC client, such as CoRD
CoRD (Microsoft RDC Screen Sharing)
<http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/22770/cord>

Remote Desktop Fail after March 10 Updates!
