Q: Unable to copy to clients with ARD 3.8
Our school is unable to using ARD 3.8 with all clients running on Mavericks 10.9.5 with all updates.
While using Spotlight search we find files, but are unable to copy them to the admin machine.
The scenario is this:
- I search for files on users desktop "/Users/student/Desktop/" using the Spotlight feature
- Look for mp3 audio files
- Select all results and press "Copy To This Computer."
- Select Desktop as my destination and start to copy the files
Problem:
The first file will copy fast, but the second will stall sat 0%.
After a about 1 minute timeout the second file fails.
The third file copies as fast as the first.
The fourth file stalls again at 0%.
After a about 1 minute timeout the second file fails.
This pattern repeats.
Tried these fixes:
- Updating Maverick host and client with all available updates.
- Update Apple Remote Desktop from 3.7 -> 3.8
- Deleted associated preferences with ARD database
- Opening com.apple.RemoteDesktop.plist and replacing all hostname with ignorehostname,etc., via recommendation from community poster (Bryan).
Question:
Is anyone else having problems with this? Copying files from admin machine with ARD to clients also exhibits this problem.
Appreciate your help friends.
Take care,
