Windows 8.1 Remote Desktop Not Connecting - "Credentials Did Not Work"

Hi,
I am having trouble connecting remotely to my work's servers. It was previously working fine, but today I upgraded to Windows 8.1 and now I'm getting an error. It says my credentials do not work. Now, my username and password are both still
valid, as they were used to log in from another computer. I initially thought it was that the firewall was preventing me from connecting, but I enabled the Remote Desktop app and it still does not work.
I'm kind of at a loss on where to go from here so any help would be appreciated.

Hi,
Please try the method below to fix this problem for test.
Open Group Policy, then navigate to
Local Computer Policy\Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\System\Credentials Delegation\
Open Setting Allow Delegating Saved Credentials with NTLM-only Server Authentication, set it to
Enabled click on button Show... and in Show Contents
window add Value TERMSRV/terminal.server.com. Close all windows by pressing
OK.
In the end, Open cmd and enter gpupdate
command to update your policy.

Windows 2008 R2 Remote Desktop Services - user profile path not working

Trying to setup remote desktop profiles. We have 1 farm with 2 Windows 2008R2 RD session hosts and a broker server and want the all of the remote user profiles to reside on a dedicated profile server. We've created the user shares but when a remote
user logs in their user profiles is automatically created on the session hosts. Each remote users profile path is specified in AD under the user's Remote Desktop Profile tab.
I've seen posts about creating a GPO to handle roaming profiles but I'm not sure as to where this needs to be created...should it be done on each of the session hosts? Are their any step by step instructions out there on how to achieve this that I just haven't
found yet?

Hi,
Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
Do you have RD Gateway setup in your environment?
Have you configure RD Connection Broker and set the Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) of the RD Connection Broker server in case of RD Connection Broker mode. In RD Session mode, it is set to the FQDN of the RD Web Access server.
Client operating systems must trust the certificate with which the RemoteApp programs are signed. Suggest to install RDP 8.1 for client OS.
Do you have a trusted certificate with a matching name configured on your RDSH server in RD Session Host Configuration? (Means cert must match the name that clients use to connect to it for running the RemoteApp).
Hope it helps!
Thanks.

My new 7th gen NANO cannot be connected on either my Windows 7 or VISTA PCs. I have updated to ensure I have the latest iTunes version. When connecting I did not get the setup screens but the NANO assumed the identity of an older IPod. I have reset

I am having problems setting up a new 7th gen IPod NAN or both my Windows 7 and Windows Vista PCs. When first connecting I did not get the setup screens and cannot sync existing media. The NANO assumed the name of a previously installed IPod touch and resetting does not clear this name. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes.updating driver software and resetting the NANO without any success

WRT54GL not allowing Remote Desktop Web Connection

Im currently using a WRT54GL in a network with just two computer. Computer A is using a wired connection and Computer B is wireless with a Linksys adapter. Public IP address from ISP is a static IP address and all is setup in the router allowing both computers internet access with no problems. Both computers are setup with static IP. Computer A is 192.168.1.101. Computer B is 192.168.1.103. Both computers are installed with Internet Information Services.
1) Setting Up The Two Computers: I setup Computer A for port 50001, ie. I opened Control Panel, clicked Performance & Maint., Clicked Admin Tools, Double clicked IIS. Expanded Websites, right clicked Default Website and clicked on Properties. On the Website tab, I changed the value of the TCP port to the one above, 50001. I Opened the Properties Window of My Computer and clicked to the Remote tab. I placed a green Check into where it states, [Allow users to connect remotely to this computer]. On side note, I have admin rights to the computer so I did not click to [Select Remote Users]. I then accessed the Windows Firewall Settings, In the Exception Tab, I have Remote Desktop with a Check - Set with TCP 3389. I also added new port - game it Name: Remote Access, Port:50001. Settings were all saved. (I did all the same exact steps for Computer B, but the only difference is I used for 50002 instead)
2) Setting up the router: I access the router configuration with IP 192.168.1.1 Clicked to the Applications and Gaming. Selected [Port Range Forward]. Below where it tells to enter the ports and name for each port I entered for the first port. Application: FM-HS01, Start and End Ports: 50001 to 50001, Protocol: TCP, IP Address: 192.168.1.101, Enabled: {checked}. I again setup another below that for Computer B. FM-HS02, 50002 to 50002, TCP, 192.168.1.103, Enabled: {Checked}. I then clicked to Port Triggering screen. Under Application: [Remote Access], Trigger Range Start - End: [50001 to 50002], Forwarded Range Start - End: [3389 to 3389], Enabled [Checked]
Under the Security Tab for Firewall - I unchecked {Block Anonymous Internet Requests}, but have {Filter Multicast}, {Filter Internet NAT Redirection} , {Filter IDENT(Port 113)} all checked.
I also enabled remote access to router using default port 8080.
By using the ISP Static IP: ie http://64.193.93.46:8080/, I am able to access the router config page no problems. Problem is trying to access each Computer A and B. For Example: in IE address bar, I entered http://64.193.93.46:50001/ I get page stating Under Construction. Now if I try http://64.193.93.46:50001/tsweb/ I actually get the Microsoft Windows Remote Desktop Web Connection screen stating to enter Server __________ Size: and Connection Button. I enter the Computer Name for Computer A: FM-HS01, Choose the appropriate size and clicked connect. Page loads then all I see is an outline of a box where I assume the remote computer's screen should show. A message appears after trying to load stating: "
Remote Desktop can’t find the computer “FM-HS01”. This might mean that “FM-HS01” does not belong to the specified network. Verify the computer name and domain that you are trying to connect to."
This is where I have been ending up at. I have not able to get pass this part. Any Help Please??? I am not sure is there are other ports I would need to open along with the ones I have specified above. On another side note, my Antivirus software for both computers are CA eTrust AntiVirus which I have also configured for both computers.

Just change the ports to what ever you think of and be sure to make the right single port forwards (if you put comp A to 50001, make *.*.*.101:50001 forward and so on). Just be sure you are not running anything else on the same port, on the same computer (for excample the IIS terminal server client application). And from outside you just connect the remote desktop client to your external iport_number ie use the comp_ip:50001 for comp A in the client program connection window (not http:// in browser).

Windows Server 2012 The licensing mode for the Remote Desktop Session Host server is not configured

Hi
I have a standard Windows Server 2012 that is hosted in the cloud by a hosting provider -
This server has been up and running fir 6 months - recently we have been getting a warning
"The licensing mode for the Remote Desktop Session Host server is not configured" - The Remote Desktop Session Host server is within its grace period, but the RD Session Host server has not been configured with any license server.
Yet, we only use this with 2 connections as part of the standard licence agreement and this server is not used as a user's desktop only an ftp and web server- do therefore we do not need to purchase any cal licences (we have another server with the same
hosting company that does not have this issue and has been up for 18months)
Please can someone advise how I resolve this issue, the hosting company states that I must resolve it as they only host and resell the server licence
Thank-you
Richard Steele

Hi Richard,
You need to uninstall Remote desktop session host feature. After removing it, you will default two connections which does not need to purchase RD CALs'.
Thanks,

Remote Desktop using Domain Credentials

I have two Domain Controllers (Windows Server 2k8 R2 with IIS and DNS role). Forest and Domain functional level is Windows Server 2008. They are in separate locations joined by a VPN. I also have Dev servers (also Win 2k8 R2 with IIS role).
I want to log into the Dev servers using my domain credentials. Can anyone tell me what I need to check or configure in order to achieve this?
Note:
- I do not have DHCP (yet), -> please confirm if this is an issue.
- I can RDP to the Dev servers using their respective local users.
- but network users (which are members of Domain Admin and Remote Desktop Users) cannot RDP.
- do I need to have Remote Desktop Services (Terminal Services)? -> if so, i need to raise my functional level, right?
- I am accessing them from Windows 7 (which is not a member of the domain)

Hi,
Thanks in advance. I can connect to my dev server (using domain credentials) when I am accessing it from my Domain Controller but when I am using my Windows 7 client, it produces these errors:
*I usually get this error
Remote Desktop can't connect to the remote computer for one of these reasons:
1) Remote access to the server is not enabled
2) The remote computer is turned off
3) The Remote computer is not available on the network
Make sure the remote computer is turned on and connected to the network, and that remote access is enabled.
---- OR ----
*Least frequent error
Configuration information could not be read from the domain controller, either because the machine is unavailable or access has been denied.
---- OR -----
*I get this whenever I entered the IP Address instead of the name (dev1):
Your credentials did not work
The credentials that were used to connect to 10.0.0.20 did not work. Please enter new credentials.
The logon attempt failed

How to enable users to access windows 2012 through remote desktop client on windows XP SP3

Hi I have just installed Windows Server 2012 and trying to give access to the users. The users are on windows XP Pro SP3 remote desktop client (Shell and control version 6.1.7600 with Remote Desktop Protocol 7.0 support).
I have enabled the windows server 2012 remote desktop users through "control panel -> systems and security -> Remote access" for the users. When I try to connect to the windows server as administrator, it is getting connected.
But when I try to connect as other users I get the following message.
"To sign in remotely, you need the right to sign in through Remote Desktop Services. By default members of the Administrators group have this right. If the group you're in does not have the right, or if the right has been removed from the Administrators
group, you need to be granted the right manually."
Is there any other setting to be done to eanble the Remote Desktop for the users.

Have you tried adding those users to the "Remote Desktop Users" group? It's in Active Directory Users and Computers and it's a Built-In group. Might want to give that a try ...

Can I use Apple Remote desktop to connect over the internet?

I would like to use Apple Remote Desktop to connect back to my MacPro desktop at home while I am on my Macbook Air at work. Will I need a static IP from my service provider to do it.

Hi
It's not absolutely necessary but it would be more useful if you did have one. Most ISPs will require you to have a business class broadband service at your home rather than a residential one. These cost more (a lot more in some cases) than a residential service. Call your home location's ISP and discuss it with them.
If the cost is too much then you could go for a DynDNS account which is free. The details of this account would be configured in the whatever you're using as a firewall at your home's location. This assumes the firewall has the facility to add such an account. Thereafter it's just a question of configuring the port fowarding feature of that firewall.
A potentially 'big' problem though is whether or not your workplace will allow that kind of traffic out of their network. This would be something you'd need to discuss with them first.
HTH?

I am accessing a windows server using remote desktop and I am wondering if I can transfer files by sharing drives?

I am accessing a windows server using remote desktop and I am wondering if I can transfer files by sharing drives?

Probably. You may be able to use Finder > Go > Connect to server to access the server. You may be able to share folders using Remote Desktop too. Whichever one you like the best.

What setting have you chosen in the view menu? Fit to Screen or Window.
And, in Preferences what have you set for Display?

I am trying to move a pdf file onto my iPad2, and it says that the device is not connected or has stopped working. But Windows 7 recognizes the device and I can see my pictures. Same thing happens when I try to put music onto the iPad.

I am trying to move a pdf file onto my iPad2, and it says that the device is not connected or has stopped working. But Windows 7 recognizes the device and I can see my pictures. Same thing happens when I try to put music onto the iPad.

When in iTunes on the computer,my our ipadmshould show under devices.
Click on your ipadmunder devices then go to music at top center of the iTunes window, check what you want to sync for music. You need to set it to a folder if I remember which would have your music in it you want synced.
Same with PDF files.....there should be an option for data or even PDF files at the top center area of iTunes when the iPad is clicked under devices.
If your iPad does not show or you cannot click on it under devices which is in the leftane of iTunes, the iPad is not being seen by the computer.
Try unplugging the USB cord from the laptop then give it a few and see if the computer picks it up.

RDP Error: Your credentials did not work. SAP AS ABAP 7.4 SP5 incl. BW on SAP HANA 1.0 SP7

Hi Experts,
I have created instances from the SAP Application Server ABAP 7.4 SP5 incl. Business Warehouse on SAP HANA 1.0 SP7 [Developer Edition] free trial solution, as it is described in documentation. But I cannot connect to the Frontend Server instance (Windows 2008) via Remote Desktop Connection, I got a message: Your credentials did not work. User: Administrator, with the master password (pwd not mistyped, while it works on PUTTY, via Saplogon, etc.). I have a 64-bit Windows 7.
I have done the following so far:
First I have created an instance with the Public option, but the same RDP error. Then I have created a new instance as a Corporate Network. The result is: I can connect to VPN service, I can ping the Windows server, but I cannot log on to it with RDC. On AWS I have opened all ports for this instance. Then I updated my RDP, JAVA, enabled RDP on Firewall. Just for a test, I have also switched off Firewall and the AntiVirus program, still nothing. I have tried a Remote Desktop Connection to my Windows Instance from another laptop with Windows 32 bit system (from home and work too), and still facing the same problem: Your credentials did not work. Then I have also tried a tip from windows site (enablecredsspsupport:i:0 into .rdp). When I start the RDC, I get a certification error: The server name on the certificate is incorrect, but I can proceed. Now the windows logon screen on the remote system appears, but still the same result: The user name or password is incorrect.
I would really appreciate some help.
Thanks,
Andrea

Hi Yogesh,
Unfortunately this problem is not solved, I still cannot use the Frontend Instance. I use another solution: I manage to access the SAP Backend instance ( SAP HANA and AS ABAP ) from my local client (laptop). The disadvantage of this solution is that I had to install myself the client part ,but at least it works.

Andrea

Remote procedure call failed and did not execute response after changing contents

Hey Hey!
I have reviewed the other posts related to this issue but have not found a solution.
I have done myself quite a mischief and hope someone here can help me out!
I'm running an old ACER laptop with Windows 7. This PC belonged to an old colleague and therefore all of the folders and user names were still under his name, so I decided to try to change them all to my name. The main issue was the USER folder which had
the locked symbol next to it but it wasn't locked at all. I googled how to delete this folder and one bright spark suggested I create a new folder with my name, copy all of the folders from the other 'locked' user's folder into my folder, and then delete the
old user's folder.
That was fine. All seemed well. When I tried to delete the old folder the computer sat around thinking saying it was 'moving' but not doing anything. So, I cancelled the operation in the Task Manager. When I attempted to open any folder from the start menu
or desktop or task bar I was presented with a bunch of numbers and letters and the message "REMOTE PROCEDURE CALL FAILED AND DID NOT EXECUTE."
I quickly googled the message realising I'd made a major error and the first response was to type in services.msc or something to that effect, so I typed that into the Start Menu search bar and hit enter and nothing came up. So, I tried again, but now I
couldn't type anything into the search bar, I could not even select any programs from the Start Menu.
So, I can't access the Start Menu, search bar, or any of the folders unless I open uTorrent, select open containing folder, and from there I can access what I need.
I'm too afraid to reboot the PC. I can't locate my copy of Windows 7 anywhere. I'm freaking out!!
Before I pour my lowly student wage into getting a professional to fix it, could someone please offer some suggestions??
Greatly appreciated in advance.
Paris, Texas.
