The workaround is, unfortunately to remove locations from the Network panel in System Preferences. Everything works fine after that.

There is a crash bug in the 2.0 version of Apple Remote Desktop which manifests itself when the admin account has multiple locations set-up in system preferences. The crash occurs when you fire up a scanner ... you get a couple of entries, and then whammo!, it's crash time.

Prevent Apple Remote Desktop 2 / scanner crashes
Another method to get out of this 'loop' (once you have set ARD to scanning it will always crash on startup once you've tried to do network scanning) is to create a Network Preference Location with all Port Settings disabled. I call mine 'No Network'. Use this Network Location and ARD should start up cleanly. You can then 'pull' the Scanner out of the left pane in ARD if you don't need it, otherwise you may accidently activate it again; you can create a "New Scanner" from the File Menu.

here's how you get ARD 2.0 to run without any limitions to the number of ports or locations

Window Focus Bug
I don't know where else to put this so I'll attach it to this thread. An interesting thing happened to a friend when he upgraded his powerbook to ARD2.
Every couple of seconds the current window would lose focus. It took us awhile to figure out what was causing the problem, killing ARD2 got rid of it. Just a FYI for some of you out there. |
