What is default.rdp

Hello,
On my iMac ( OS 10.6.8 )  I've recently discovered a file called default.rdp in a folder called RDC Connections. I'd be grateful if anyone can explain please what it is and why it might be there. All I know is that RDC stands for remote desktop connection, which sounds a bit worrying.
Thanks

That is the Microsoft RDC default file, it is the blank page on which you can configure a connection to a remote computer (Windows computer)
It does nothing unless you configure it and it has no role to play in connections to your computer. Ignore it or delete it (unless you use Microsoft Remote Desktop)

  • When I open Remote Desktop Connection, it reads "cannot open default.rdp".  What can I do to fix this?

    Hi, when I open RDP on my iMac, it reads "cannot open default.rdp" and it never saves my preferences or connections.  It resets after each launch. 
    How do I go about fixing this?
    UPDATE and FIX
    I went to the Finder menu, clicked on GO, held down Option (Alt) to bring up the Library.
    In the Library, I browsed to Preferences, found the com.microsoft.rdp plist and deleted it. Then I emptied my Trash.  If you get an error saying rdp plist is in use and cannot be deleted, quit out of RDP or reboot the machine (if quitting RDP doesn't work).
    Also, there was a permissions issue.  I browsed to the Applications folder, located the Microsoft Office folder, right clicked the folder (or CTRL click) and selected GET INFO.  First--In order to make any changes, authenticate with admin privileges using the lock icon (put in your username and password). From there (under Sharing & Permissions), I made sure my username (account currently logged in) and everyone had Read & Write privileges, then I clicked on the little gear icon (drop-down) and selected Apply to Enclosed items.
    Voila! 
    This worked for me.

    Actually, I still receive an error when I try to save the connections.
    I get an error that reads
    "Make sure that you have permission to write to the location where you want to save the file"
    Any help with this would be great!
    ah, RDP on a mac

  • Where can I setup a default RDP client?

    Every time want to connect to a remote desktop, an app automatically opens. This app is CoRD, I want to use another app.
    CoRD isn't even installed in my prohremas-folder.
    Where can i setup another RDP client?

    When CoRD is running it will appear in the Dock (normally at the bottom of your screen). If you click and hold on the Icon you will get a menu appear and there should be a choice to 'Show in Finder' this will show you where the CoRD application is and you can then if you wish throw it away.
    However more specifically to setting the default RDP app. I think what is happening is you are double-clicking or otherwise opening a settings file which contains the settings to connect to a specific RDP host. If you click once on the settings file and then select Get Info, in the Get Info window should be an option to specify which program to open the settings file with. You would then change it presumably to Microsoft Remote Desktop instead of CoRD.

  • Detect what the default edit form is for a document library and list using jquery

    Hi,
    So what I have done is with some jquery made it that when a files are dragged and dropped into a document library and there is a required field such as "Metadata" the EditForm.aspx opens up for the user to fill in the required column. I am building
    the url up from what I have found in SharePoints DragDrop.js file. This is all working perfectly I just need to find a way to dynamically find what the default edit form is for that document library as I have just hardcoded like this...
    g_currentControl.strSiteUrl + "/" + this.ListName + "/Forms/EditForm.aspx?ID=" + id
    So I need a way to figure out what the default edit form is instead of hard coding like this in case someone creates a custom_editform.aspx or something for one of the lists.
    Thanks

    You can get it by hitting this REST end point via JQuery:

  • What should default permissions be of the Groups folder be?

    While trying to sort out our Group shared folders permissions problems I might have changed the permissions of the Group folder (/Volumes/Server/Groups) in Server Admin.
    Can anyone tell me what the default permissions for that folder should be?

    I had a similar problem:
    <http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=5876784#5876784>
    and Gerrit came to the rescue! Wonder if you migrated from Tiger and if so then the above thread might have some answers for you. Seems like the standard Group ID (gid) changed from Tiger to Leopard and has wreaked havoc on file sharing. I was able to remedy my situation (so far - still not thoroughly tested) by changing the gid of all files back to 20...which matches "staff" on the clients. This is still confusing and Apple's documentation is half-baked regarding this as far as I'm concerned.

  • Does anyone know what the default font is for MacMail?

    Does anyone know what the default font is for the Mail program? My son changed my mail font and I want to change it back, but I can't remember what the original default is! Anyone? Thanks!

    I rarely use Mail (normally use Gmail in Safari) so I am 99.99% sure mine is still at the default. It is Helvetica 12.

    What does default account use for in Windows 10???

    MR B
    I had understood that it is there and has been since windows 7, but rather I was asking what specifically do you want to know about the default account.  I suspect you would be better served by Googling it as there are 264,000,000 hits on the subject.

    I don't believe there is a default, you need to enter a code to enable parental control. if you've forgotten it, you'll need to restore.

  • How do you determine what the default filename is when you do a SaveAs?

    I have a shcedule that I saved and now I want to save it as a .pdf file, so I go into File, SaveAs and select .pdf in the drop down and the default filename is "document" not what the name of my schedule was.  Where is that set?  How
    do I make it default to the name of the MS Project Filename?
    Thanks,
    Casey

    Hi Casey,
    Which version, SP and CU do you have? Trying with Project 2010 SP1, the original file name is kept whatever extension selected in the "save as" dialog box.
    Hope this helps,

  • What is default value of the javax.xml.transform.Transformer sys property?

    Hi all
    In my other thread "javax.xml.transform." last replied to on 17/04/05, I described that having & in my xml was causing TransformerExceptions when I attempted to apply a stylesheet to the xml.
    I've now deployed exactly the same xml, xsl and java on a completely different environment and have found that the error does NOT occur.
    This completely baffled me at first, but then I read the following in the API documentation for TransformerFactory: -
    "A TransformerFactory instance can be used to create Transformer and Templates objects.
    The system property that determines which Factory implementation to create is named "javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory". This property names a concrete subclass of the TransformerFactory abstract class. If the property is not defined, a platform default is be used.
    I think that the key must lie in the system property "javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory". The two environments must be using a different value for this - one representing a class that objects to & and one that doesn't. In neither case do I actually set this property, so my main question is what does it default to and how can I find out what each environment is using for this?
    I'm really baffled here guys, any help would be massively appreciated.
    Thank you
    Jon

    javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory is a real class implemented by someone. It looks at the system property to figure out what actual implementation to use. It the property doesn't exist, it uses the class that came bundled with the javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory class you are using.
    Here, for instance, is the javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory that comes with jdk1.4.2
        public static TransformerFactory newInstance()
            throws TransformerFactoryConfigurationError
            try {
                return (TransformerFactory) FactoryFinder.find(
                    /* The default property name according to the JAXP spec */
                    "javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory",
                    /* The fallback implementation class name */
                    "org.apache.xalan.processor.TransformerFactoryImpl");
            } catch (FactoryFinder.ConfigurationError e) {
                throw new TransformerFactoryConfigurationError(e.getException(),
                                                               e.getMessage());
        }

  • How do I determine what the default font for equations is?

    In the Equation Fonts dialog box, we can set the font of Functions, Numbers, Strings, and Variables.  In those dropdown lists, there is a Default (para) Font choice.  How do I determine what font that is?  What paragraph tag is associated with an equation?
    With all the choices set to default, numbers types in the equation look similar (but not exact) to the Symbol font, but of course typing letters in the Symbol font reveal greek characters.  So is it some derivation of Symbol?

    Thanks.  That .cfg file shows Times Regular for the following characters, but none of these characters are the regular alphabet, (are they?) so there must be yet another place?
    mathchar.cfg    53      < plus        2b Times Regular>
    mathchar.cfg    54      < equal       3d Times Regular>
    mathchar.cfg    70      < gg          c8 Times Regular>
    mathchar.cfg    71      < ll          c7 Times Regular>
    mathchar.cfg    93      < fact        21 Times Regular>
    mathchar.cfg    94      < dagger      a0 Times Regular>
    mathchar.cfg    98      < minus       d0 Times Regular>
    mathchar.cfg    106      < uequal      3d Times Regular>
    mathchar.cfg    112      < diff        64 Times Regular>
    mathchar.cfg    116      < ucomma      2c Times Regular>
    mathchar.cfg    117      < semicolon   3b Times Regular>
    mathchar.cfg    118      < optotal     64 Times Regular>
    mathchar.cfg    127      < power       5e Times Regular>
    I've determined (by comparing equation string to body string visually) that Times is in fact the font being used.  I just don't see yet how that gets determined.  Any further thoughts?

  • OBIEE 11g, BI Apps EBS: What are default security variables and Init Block

    Hi,
    We are implementing BI Apps 7.9.6.3 [OBIEE 11.1.1.1.5 with EBS modules]. Out of the box RPD and mappings.
    There are many VARIABLES and INIT BLOCKS in the RPD. Some of them are mainly for Siebel, Jd Edwards etc.
    I need to know what are the default variables and Init Block configures in RPD. Also it will be highly appreciated if anyone can point out what segments we should configure if we need to implement security with simple database table authentication with SSO?
    Thanks in advance.

    You should review this doc for the options for EBS/OBIA security:
