Connecting in from an Apple MAC

Firstly, you need to install the Remote Desktop Connection Client program. This is a FREE program provided by Microsoft which allows a MAC to connect to a Windows Server [click here to download it].

When you run Remote Desktop, you will need to enter the name of the computer you are connecting to (also known as the “host” or “server”) as well as the username and password, as follows :-

Remote Computer: clinicofficeonline.co.uk

The SERVER Username is: demo

The SERVER Password is: clinicoffice

After connecting in, you should see a Windows Desktop. Double-click the “ClinicOffice Hosted Demo” icon to launch ClinicOffice and then simply login to the Sample Database with the following details :-

CLINICOFFICE Username is: jsmith

CLINICOFFICE Password is: demo

Congratulations! After following the above instructions, you should be ready to try out the Hosted Edition. If this is your first time using ClinicOffice, we recommend the Tutorial which is available on the HELP tab at the top-left of the screen.

Connecting in from other devices

Important Note: while it is possible to use the Hosted Edition from any device which can run Remote Desktop, please bear in mind that ClinicOffice was designed for use on a Windows PC and this is by far the best way to use the program. Also, as a Microsoft development company, we’re not able to offer support for non-Microsoft hardware or products.

Whatever device you are using, you must first download and install a “Remote Desktop” program to allow your device to connect to a Windows Server. Here are some good Remote Desktop programs (mostly free) for popular devices :-

• Apple iPad and iPhone – iRemote Desktop Free
• Android – 2X Client (free)
• Blackberry – RDM+ (free Trial)
• Windows Mobile – Remote Desktop is already built-in (Google for a Tutorial)

When you run Remote Desktop, you will need to enter the name of the computer you are connecting to (also known as the “host” or “server”) as well as the username and password, as follows :-

Remote Computer: clinicofficeonline.co.uk

The SERVER Username is: demo
