Q: ARD Connection Settings from Time Machine
My main computer failed yesterday and is out for repair.
I downloaded ARD on my MacBook Pro but do not have the connection string information to connect to my client's computers (on the main computer). I do have the Time Machine backup but cannot find the connection string information.
I have replaced /Library/Application Support/Apple/Remote Desktop, /Library/Preferences/com.apple.RemoteManagement.plist, and /Library/Preferences/com.apple.RemoteDesktop.plist with the Time Machine backup and restarted the laptop.
I still do not have my connection strings. Where is the connection string information stored?
MacBook, Mac OS X (10.6.8)

Hi tijoev,
Not sure which version of ARD you use.
- Latest versions of ARD have settings stored in ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.RemoteDesktop
- Restore all contents of this folder from TM Backup and restart.
HTH
