OS X :: Free Screen Sharing App?
Oct 19, 2009Any recommendation for a free app to control my PPC (runing Tiger) from my MBP remotely? Screen Sharing on my network is a snap but that does me no good when I'm away.

OS X V10.7 Lion :: Grey Line Screen On Screen Sharing Virtual Display?
Mar 10, 2012Whenever I try to use Screen Sharing to control this one particular Mac Mini, and someone else is using the mini, and I pick "Connect to Virtual Display", I get dropped to a grey linen screen. Like the login screen, but without a list of usernames or anything. There it sits. Here is what I see in the console of the mac mini when I try and use a virtual display from the other machine:
3/10/12 7:30:04.291 AM mds: (Error) Backup: Couldn't stat source path '/Users/glados/Library/Saved Application State/com.apple.finder.savedState/window_3.data' -- importing from backup path instead

Applications :: Won't Work With Full Screen And Screen Sharing
Aug 19, 2010Does anyone know of a way to enter full screen in Mac OS X's native screen sharing application? I recently purchased a new MBP and wanted to screen share to my old MB with all my "junk" on it. It would be handy to actually enter full screen as opposed to being restricted to a window sized screen.
If this isn't possible, anyone have a good recommendation for an alternative application?

May 28, 2009I want to set the screen sharing on a iMac. It works fine when I enable the "Anyone may request permission to control screen" but I would like to use only the "password" option but it doesn't work. When I just set a VNC password and then try to connect via the "Screen Sharing" app, it keeps saying that the password is not correct. Which "login" am I supposed to use? When I use another client such as UltraVNC, it works. So how can I enter a password onl with the Screen Sharing app?

Apr 22, 2010Just got a new MBP and migrated my account from my MB using Migration Assistant. Everything works, but if I try using screen sharing/Back to My Mac from ANY of my other Macs in the house to my new MBP, I cannot log in using my short name.
Can log in and screen share using my full name, but prefer three letters over many. Everything else works fine; can even file share using short name, just not screen sharing.
IMac :: How To Keep Screen Free From Dust
Dec 13, 2010I keep finding that there is dust under my iMac screen. When I remove the glass planel to clean it and put it back, there is inevitably ALWAYS some dust that gets in between the second I wipe the screen and second I put it on. I've spent hours over the past few weeks doing this and it's driving me mad. All I want is a screen with no dust. I heard I can use canned air. If so, how exactly would I go about doing this? Spraying the canned air inside?

View 8 Replies View RelatedOS X :: Screen And File Sharing Security?
Nov 4, 2010I've been using my MacMini as a server to backup and sync several Macs on my local LAN but recently I found the need to access certain files outside my LAN. That said, I set my router to forward ports 548, 9, and 5900 (file sharing, WOL, and screen sharing, respectively) to my MacMini. This has actually worked rather well for me -- other than WOL. So in an attempt to diagnose the WOL issue I started probing my router's incoming logs (to see if I can successfully send a WOL magic packet from outside my network) and thats when I noticed a few random IPs probing port 5900. So my question is, what are some security measures that I can take in order to prevent someone form accessing my MacMini from the open ports? In theory couldn't a simple program attempt to repeatedly connect to a port and brute force a password? Excuse my naivety with networking, but I'm a little concerned. I did some searching but I couldn't find anything substantial on the forums.

Aug 25, 2008I am thinking of getting an MBA as a second computer. One thing I am interested in, particularly after discovering how slow it is to access a remote drive on the AEBS, is screen sharing significantly faster?
1) If I was at home screen sharing from my MBP, would it work pretty much in 'real time'?
2) Same question but when on the road.
Applications :: Screen Sharing (VNC) Without IChat?
Feb 6, 2009I know that Leopard has a screensharing utility built in (in the coreservices folder) or by going to Go>Connect to Server>vnc://---------- in the Finder menu, but I would like to know what IP I type into the box (I would like to share with someone not on my local network). I'm not an expert in networking, but I'm pretty good with computers, so you can use technical terms.

View 1 Replies View RelatedOS X :: Best Option For Remote Screen Sharing?
Mar 2, 2010I am trying to figure out what the best option is for remote controlling my computer. I've used LogMeIn Free, which is a great option, and I really like that I can use any web browser from any computer, and even my iPhone to remotely control my primary desktop computer.
I've also used Mac's built in ScreenSharing.app to access my various computers using the Back To My Mac, which is also a great option.
I guess I would just like to find out if any better options exist. I do not like that the Mac's built in ScreenSharing.app doesn't permit me to view my remote desktop "Full Screen".
I do not like that LogMeIn seems like little more than a PC ported application made to work with a Mac as an after thought.

OS X V10.7 Lion :: Screen Sharing Isn't Great On LAN
Mar 15, 2012my Screen Sharing within my LAN isnt verygood. Its very stuttery and screen splintersa lot and doesnt update some things. My router is a 'G' router which should be able to cope with these things.also, the screen res on my Mini is slightly different to my MBP, which i use as the remote screen to control it and therefore the picture isnt as sharp. Can i make it as sharp as if i was looking at MBP stuff?

OS X V10.7 Lion :: How To Get Screen Sharing To Work Again
May 16, 2012I have a mac mini server running OSX Lion 10.7.4 Until powring this down over the weekend, it had worked beautifully. I coould connect, access shared files, screen share (as I am running in head less) as well as access it via Server Admin from a remote computer.
After restarting, I can still share files, but am unable to access the sceen share or administer remotely. The odd thing is that when I connect it to my TV I can then also access it with screen share from another MacBook Pro as well as use server admin for remote admin. As soon as I run it headless again, I cannot access it via screen share.
I have noticed that the screen share finction has changed from before, so am wondering if this has anything to do with it.
I have not chnaged any settings on it. Firewall is the same as before, filesharing and screen sharing is enabled and I am trying to access it as a registered user.
