Q: ARD 3.6 update for Lion removes saved list.....

Same issue here.  I was fine yesterday when I upgraded from 3.5.1 to 3.6.  After rebooting my computer this morning it took ARD about 3-5 minutes to start up and when it started up all of my smart lists were gone.

Yes...same issue here. All of my scanners survived the upgrade, but all of my regular lists and smart lists are long gone. This is a big problem for me. In addition, the application is absurdly slow on launch.

Restore the com.apple.RemoteDesktop.plist file from your latest backup

Sorry, but this isn't an acceptable day to day solution. ARD should not be removing my saved lists every time I quit the application and that's exactly what it has been doing since the update.

I also have the same problem. I will try restoring the plist but if this is the 'fix' it is not acceptable.

Sorry to say fellas, but neither I nor any of 15 person help staff has experience this issue.

I suggest you do a COMPLETE uninstall of ARD.  Once reinstalled, restore your com.apple.remotedesktop.plist file from backup.

Updated 30 lab mac minis and admin mac air to ARD 3.6.  Screen share under interact menu does not work. All other interacts work fine.  When trying to use screen share, screens of mac minis goes black for 3 minutes.  ARD states failure on admin computer.   Also, saved computer lists are not working properly like other posts.

Tried to diasable remote management for mac mini and then enable with reboot.  No difference.
