Best Remote Desktop app
 
I don't have XP pro on my PC, so Remote desktop won't work, but is there a program designed to sync xp home to windows mobile 6.

Logmein isn't working well.

I use Orb. It's pretty straightforward.

Yeah, I noticed LogMeIn doesn't work too well with Opera so you may want to try PIE if you haven't been using it... and I've also had a problem running Remote Desktop on my TP with the Vista OS. Garbage. Anyone know how to get it working?

Do you want to control your PC via your phone or do you want to sync files between the two? Microsoft Live Mesh works pretty well for syncing files.

Well, I've ran it on XP with no problem, just Vista. I've port forwarded it on my router for port 3389, but I don't know if on my firewall at home if the port is open. I'm using Windows Vista's built in firewall. BTW, the IP address that I select is the one in my router that isn't 192.x.x.x, it's the one that shows up under the status tab in the router config settings.

You should be using the ip address which you can find here for your computer by typing in ipchicken.com in your browser (ensure settings for 3389 are udp and tcp). also in vista allow remote settings into cpu by right clicking on your "my cpu" icon then remote settings on left tab, and then remote tab on far right of next popup screen. then allow options to connect from any remote desktop and allow remote connections into your cpu. i dont use windows firewall but this setting should allow it to bypass. let me know if that worked...

What's funny is I'm using logmein in PIE to change settings so I can make sure that everything is set up for Remote Desktop Mobile, lol. I'm going to double check... I'm pretty sure I did everything arleady, but what I think is different is the tabs enable remote connections in your cpu. I'll check that and get back to you...

BTW, does anyone know why my touch pro on-screen & physical keyboard won't work in logmein?
