I keep trying to use RDP with Yosemite. I have tried using the ip and the computer name and still keep getting "

Unable to connect to remote PC. Please verify Remote Desktop is enabled, the remote PC is turned on and available on the network, and then try again."

Has anyone else been able to connect to it?

Hi,

Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.

Firstly please try to use latest RDP v8.0.10 and verify. Other thing from the error description it appears that there is connection issue taking place. Please check whether you have connection running successfully and apart firewall port 3389 is opened for remote connection. Also try to connect other windows system and check whether can access remote access from there..

Hope it helps!

Thanks.

I'm having the same issue as the original poster. I have confirmed that my Windows 7 machine is capable of connecting to my Yosemite machine (via TeamViewer), and have also confirmed that remote connections are enabled and that port 3389 is opened for the Win 7 machine's IP address on my internal network. I have not been able to connect successfully using the newest version of RDC for mac (Version 8.0.13 (Build 25377)) and do not have any other Windows machines to test connections with. 

I am having the same issue now with the latest RDP program. It was working prior to the update. I can use a windows machine here in my home and RDP to my windows machine at work with no issues but it has stopped working with RDP for the mac

I'm still having the same trouble...  After update to 8.0.13

This worked for me. On a Verizon router, select Port Forwarding, enter the remote desktop IP, then select Remote Desktop from the application list.  I tried setting individual firewall rules first without success.

Hope this helps,

I'm using Microsoft Remote Desktop version 8.0.18 (Build 26163). I CAN access my Windows 7 work computer from my iPhone and iPad. But I can't access via my macbook pro (Yosemite 10.10.3). I've made sure that the VPN and remote desktop settings on the macbook pro are exactly the same as the settings on the iPhone and iPad. The interesting thing is that if I take my macbook pro to the office, then everything works fine.

Any other ideas as to why this issue is only affecting my macbook pro?

Thanks!

I'm experiencing the same issues as the last poster.  Since the latest update of MS RDP (Build 26009) on my MacBook I can not connect to my work PC.  I can use a Win 7 laptop to connect.
