I need to assist my computer-challenged aunt with setting up a new printer to her OS 10.3.9 system. In the past, I've used TeamViewer on Windows, which is dead simple easy to use...which is what I need in this case. I know TeamViewer has an OS X version, but it requires at least 10.4. Anyone know of a VERY simple to connect remote "ass...
In the office I have two monitors. At home I have one. When I use remote desktop (Win XP) to work from home, most of the applications are smart enough to all crowd into the primary monitor so I can see and use them. However, it seems their dialog boxes are not. For example, I need to upload a file and click the "Browse" button. I do not ...
I am interested in trying to create a screen sharing program in C#. I have found a blog post on the Windows Desktop Sharing API (http://blogs.msdn.com/ts/archive/2007/03/08/windows-desktop-sharing-api.aspx) but I'm uncertain how to even get started with it. Does anyone have a simple example they could share (preferably in C# or VB.net) ...

Hi all, I'm running Windows Vista Business 64 bit. I'm having trouble with session timeout/logout.

Once in a while I will connect to Windows XP Pro via RDP, I will be logged on but the screen will just go to light blue - the color of the desktop background. No windows are shown, no response to mouse or keyboard including ctrl-alt-end. If another user logs in forcing me to log out then the next login is fine. This seems to happen ra...
I typically have several remote desktop sessions going at the same time. Within these sessions I might be running different applications. VMWare Workstation has a Unity mode that allows you to integrate guest applications with the host. I'd like to be able to do the same thing for remote desktop sessions. It would be a real productiv...
The text editor in Visual Studio 2008 was very fast over Remote Desktop. The text editor in Visual Studio 2008 SP1 is very slow over Remote Desktop, causing way too much repainting (and resulting flickering). The slower your connection is, the worse the problem is, but it's aggravating enough even when RDPing into a machine on the same ...

Supposing I was developing a fairly graphically intensive application (C++ or C#, graphics API undecided) for which most of the usage will be by remote users over RDP (either terminal server sessions or remote access to a single-user machine). It's obvious that non-essential "eye-candy" effects and animations should be avoided. My ques...
We need to run the 32-bit version of the remote desktop client on 64 bit Vista, because part of our product integrates with it, and communicates with the terminal server side app via the virtual channel. The integration loads some third party 32-bit drivers, and it is not possible to load a 32-bit dll in a 64-bit process. Normally it i...
In our scenario, we have a wpf application that is used by users over remote desktop, and we found the user experience is very slow. Any suggestions for improving the user experience in this scenario? One point might be to disable any animation/storyboards, and avoid using gradients in the UI. More thoughts are appreciated. ...
