lost copy and paste

Hello Mike,

Thank you for the clarification.

In this case could you please double-check with your customer if she has any software installed on her Viewer machine that might be able to obtain control over the clipboard content?
In addition, please also check if this specific Viewer has the Do not synchronize clipboard feature enabled. This feature can be found in the Viewer Options window -> Remote Screen tab - in case if the feature is enabled, please try deselecting the checkbox to turn it off and restarting Viewer.

Hope that helps.

Take screenshot from android app

Hello Oscar,

Thank you for the clarification.

In this case, for now you can only screenshot the remote session window via the standard method of taking screenshots on Android devices as described on this Google Help Center page.
However, we do plan to revamp and improve our mobile Viewer, including the implementation of a full-fledged address book, so, perhaps, a screenshot command might be available as well in our future updates. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Please let us know if you have other questions.

File transfer Linux version

Hello Magnus,

Thank you for your message.

We definitely plan to implement the File Transfer connection mode in one of the subsequent releases of Viewer for Linux and Mac. Unfortunately, we cannot provide any specific ETA on when the connection mode will be available. However, with each release we update the list of the features available in the current beta version of Viewer for Mac/Linux, so as soon as the File Transfer connection mode is available you will see it on the list in the very first message on this page.

Please let us know if you have more questions.

Host Importing Twice into Addressbook

Hello Paul,

Thank you for your message.

I've double-checked our inbox, but, unfortunately, it seems like we haven't received any emails from you regarding the issue. Could you please try re-sending it to us once again to support@remoteutilities.com?

Looking forward to your reply.

Error when moving a file

Hello David,

Thank you for the clarification.

It's not related with the file size. OS: Windows 7 on both sides.

I've checked the File Transfer mode with Windows 7 on both sides just in case, but, unfortunately, couldn't reproduce the issue. Could you please clarify if this issue occurs with files of any sizes/format extensions or only with the files of 0 bytes like you've mentioned in your other message?

When trying to copy a file or a group of files or directories, whenever it finds a zero bytes file, it results in an error, breaks the process and it doesn't copy that file.

Thank you for letting us know. We've managed to reproduce this issue - I will forward it to our developers and ask for their input on this to see if it's expected behavior for empty files or if this can be fixed in future updates.

Looking forward to your reply.

Take screenshot from android app

Hello Oscar,

Thank you for your message.

There are two ways to take screenshots when using mobile Viewer:
1. When connected to a remote Host click on the keyboard icon in the lower part of the screen.
2. Tap on the Keyboard word in the lower part of the screen.
3. Tap on the > symbol in the upper left corner of the screen to invoke additional commands list.
4. In the commands list select Print Scr.
Here's also a reference screenshot:

This way the screenshot will be saved in the remote Host's clipboard - you only need to paste (ctrl+v) it to a file.

Alternatively, you can simply screenshot your remote session on your Android device - this way, the screenshot will be saved to your device's photo library right away. Usually it's possible to take a screenshot on Android devices by pressing the Power and Volume down buttons at the same time. For more information on taking screenshots of your screen on Android devices please see this page.

Hope that helps.
