is there a remote desktop tutorial or how to guide? as i dont know how to work the thing but id love some help
try to use XP remote desktop, it is same !
you must create an admin account (or use a existing one) with a password..
then press "winkey+pausebreak" and click on the "remote" tab
check the box "alow users to connect remotely...."
note the name bellow this check box, that is the name your computer is seen in the world wild web..
connect your phone via active sync (to use the internet connection)
open the remote desktop app on your ppc
fill the blanks with the data you have collected/created:
Computer: the name bellow the check box
user name: your user account on windows logon
password: your password
domain: not needed
remember, the windows account (logon) must be without limitations, i mean, an admin account
mine is working here
You dont need an Admin-account
just add your Account to the group remotedesktop-users, its even more secure...
And...note that by default, an account with empty password cannot be accessed through remote desktop (However you can override by setting security policy).
I've searched and googled the hell out of this and still haven't found and answer.
I use my Admin account to install programs and change settings. The limited account is where I do all my work. I can log onto my admin but I have none of the files I need.
When I try and log onto my limited account it says "local settings" prevent me from logging on. If I try and add my limited account it says this user is already allowed to log on. I cant change any "remote" options from the limited account. Where are these local settings that I'm supposed to change?
Remoting into a WinXP or Vista desktop must be done using an account authorized to do so. Admins are added to the Remote users group by default.
If you want to add your limited account to the auth users, first login to vista as an admin and add it.
To do this, go into control panel, and choose the System icon.
In there, goto remote access and add your limited account in as a remote user.
- you should be all set.
I have windows xp btw.... but I did all those steps. When I add my limited account to the "Users" it says "this user is already on the list"
Ok. Next question would be whether or not you have a password set on your user account. If not, set one.
edit - you sound like you know what you're doing and probably covered all the bases already, but if not, here's a pretty complete guide on getting it up and running: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/networking/expert/northrup_03may16.mspx
password....... check
edit:
thats the exact page I used to setup my remote desktop.
Dear All,
I found on the iPhone many applications releated to IT support, like managing active directory (AD) " reset password , create user account, add users to group, unlock account, delete account.etc".but there is nothing similar in windows mobile , sometime I need these programs to manage my servers from my mobile when I'm outside of my office.
Help!

As a previous owner of Touchdown on Android ( in which was excellent app); I downloaded by the instructions and it works great. The only feature I wish it had was having a checklist option to select emails to either move into folders or to delete. Similar to the email app preloaded on RT , it only allows you to delete one message at a time. Other then that small feature request it's like my previous experience with the app, a one stop mail, calendar, tasks, notes, contact app. A definite must have.
Does it only sync with EAS?

Um... you can select multiple messages and delete them all at once in the mail app. With the keyboard/mouse/touchpad with ease, with your finger with some difficulty. Perhaps the multi-select works the same way in TouchDown.
Kerio Connect too?
It's really nice. Good size and works well.
Some tweaks required but it is still a beta. I have only managed to work out how to have on account. There's no obvious "add new account" option, even via the charms bar.
Would be lovely if I could import an ical URL and then it could take over completely as my calendar.
You can select multiple with a swipe to the right for select, though sometimes this results in opening the message instead.
I have it working against Gmail EAS right now (which of course means that I have to hit some website to set it up to allow all of my calendars and enable true deletes). So far it works well, though the interface doesn't feel Metro-y. The settings could use some work as when used on a tablet, the on-screen keyboard often overlaps the settings. That makes them hard/impossible to use without a physical keyboard attached.
On the whole, no major problems, but also not enough improvement over the built-in Mail app for me to want to switch. (Hard to believe I just typed that.)
Is this beta different to what is now available in the app store?
Whether anyone could setup gmail? It always says that ActiveSync can't be found (
Isn't it only for Exchange. I want to use it for pop3 and imap since the mail app can't do pop3
It seems useless if i do not use Exchange. I can't neither setup gmail nor my domain mail using pop and smtp (((
Having some trouble... I deleted the tile and now I don't find any way to launch it, as it is not in my Apps either.
I tried installing aging, but when it comes up and says to hit enter to continue the dos window just close.
I would like help with a couple of things,
1. How can I remove all of what is downloaded and installed? I would like to clean this up. It would be nice if there was uninstall/removal instructions-I couldn't find them.
2. I would like to do number 1, because ultimately I would like to re-install this.
Running Windows 8.
Appreciate any help or pint into the right direction...

2nd. Can we please get uninstall instructions?
Hi all,
I'm looking to delete an exchange active sync email account from an Android phone.
I have the task of setting up mobile device managment for our organisation and so I've been looking at Sophos Mobile Control to manage our corporate devices.
Sophos does not allow to remove an Active Sync account and leave all personal information intact. It does have the functionallty for iOS and it works!
However there is a task to send commands to the phone (see screen shot). So I was wondering if anyone knows if there is a way of sending a command line to the phone to delete a specified email account?
