So our users on on Macs, they use Microsoft Remote Desktop to connect to a terminal server to do some design work. They have a folder on their Mac desktop that is connected via the Redirected folder settings that shows up as a regular folder on the PC side of things. Randomly the redirected folder just stops working. No error. Just shows up blank on the PC side of things. OK fine, this is a PC issue..... turns out if we change the name of the folder and redirect it again then it works just fine. If we change the name back to the original name it will not redirect, as in the application [Microsoft Remote Desktop] on the Mac will not even try.
Seems like a permissions issue to me on the Mac. Basically I'm hoping that someone out here knows why the hell redirected folders in Microsoft Remote Desktop on a Mac would just randomly stop allowing that specific folder to work, but allow brand new folders to redirect just fine. I can't have users having to create a new folder once a week when their folder just suddenly stops working.
Step 1: Launch the Microsoft Remote Desktop application and fill out the computer and username fields, following our guide here if you would like instructions:
//cat.pdx.edu/platforms/mac/remote-access/using-rdp-to-connect-to-a-windows-computer-from-macos/
Step 2: Click on the “folders” tab, and then click the “Redirect folders” check box.
Step 3: Click the plus [“+”] button in the lower left corner to select a new folder to make available for folder sharing.
Once a folder has been added [in this case, desktop], it will appear in the list of shared folders, as shown below. The minus [“-“] button in the lower left hand corner can be used to remove a folder you no longer want to be available for sharing.
Step 4: From within the remote session, navigate to “This PC” within the File Explorer. The drives that you have selected will appear under the “Redirected drives and folders” section.
Step 5: Drag files to and from the drive like you would any other folder.
Troubleshooting steps for the inability to copy between a Mac and PC - //mac2.microsoft.com/help/office/14/en-us/rdc/item/2aae839c-7f91-4738-aea7-9ffb25dbfe2e?category=ff488916-8b5e-4a0c-af96-37d065645612.
I think this answer will likely fix it:
Solution: Before you start the Remote Desktop session, make the Mac disks available to the Windows-based computer.
1.On the RDC menu, click Preferences.
2.Click Drives, and then on the pop-up menu, select the option that you want.
Your disk or folder is now available so that you can access files that are on your Mac from the Windows-based computer.
If you make this change after you connect, the disk or folder that you select becomes available the next time that you connect.
3.On the Start menu, click Computer or My Computer.
The Mac disk or folder that you have made available is listed with all other disks and folders on your Windows-based computer.
Note If you can't see the Start menu, on the View menu, click Full Screen.To return to window mode later, point to the top edge of the screen until the RDC menu bar appears. On the menu bar, click View, and then clear the Full Screen check box.
4.Open the disk or folder that you want to copy from.
5.On the Start menu, click Computer or My Computer.
6.Open the disk or folder that you want to copy to.
You should now have two windows open, one for the location that you want to copy from, and one for the location that you want to copy to.
7.Drag the document that you want to copy to the location that you want.
