Can't make "Back to my mac" work for me.

Hello world
I tried everything! Set routers on UPnP. Updated Firmware. Enabeld sharing. Logged out an in .Mac on all my Computers (same .Mac-account). Nothing! B2MM just won't work. Home mac doesn't show up on office mac and the other way round. I'll be thankfull for any suggestions.

Hi
I did some experimenting with the router settings. I could enable IP-Forward (or so. Difficulty is, my system-language and the one of the router are german - and still: some of the things listed in the menu sound rather chinese to me). For a short moment I could "see" and access my home-mac from the office-mac, but home-mac couldn't "see" office-mac. While the office-mac was connected to the home-mac (screen-sharing!), speed was extremly low. Then - as I was setting the office-router the same way as the home-router was - connection broke down and no further connection was possible, although office-mac still listed the home-mac in the finder. All further changes in the router-settings had no positiv effect. So i'm still trying to get this work for me. At least I had a little success. Still waiting for the netopia support to answer. But, if the speed i had, is what i will get, once this thing works the way it is suposted to, this service would not be very useful.

  • How do I make Back to My Mac Work on 10.4 Server

    How do I set up Server 10.4 to work with Back to my Mac. I am using my mac as a router to the internet. Internal to the Internet and an apple Ethernet card serving the other dozen or so devices. Looking at mobile me it says that I do not support NAT-PMP or UNP. NAT is on. ANy ideas anyone?

    You don't say what machine(s) you want to connect to from where.
    You could perhaps setup a port forward UDP port 4500 using NATural to a specifik machine on the server LAN.
    Or use the VPN server so you can connect from Internet to any machine on the server LAN using remote access instead of screen sharing.
    If you don't have Remote Desktop Admin you could use a VNC client like JollysVNC (I haven't really tried Back to my Mac).

  • Can't get Back to My Mac working in Time Capsule

    I just bought a brand new Airport Time Capsule. The internet works. It's the sole router in the network. I wanted to set up Back to My Mac. When I try to enter my apple id and credentials, I get a cryptic error: "An error occurred signing in."
    And that's it. No other hints on what's wrong or how to fix it.
    Anyone have any ideas?

  • Why does Back To My Mac work for my Time Capsule, but not my MacBook?

    I'm having problems using Back To My Mac from work to my home network. Initially, I thought it was something to do with the way the work network had been set up, but recently I realised that I have no problems connecting to my Time Capsule… It's just that I can't connect to my MacBook Pro. It is showing up in the devices on the left panel, but when I try to connect to it, I get this message:
    So why can I connect to the Time Capsule HD okay, but not the Mac?

  • Getting Back To My Mac working in the UK with ADSL

    I live in the UK and would like to use Back To My Mac. My home Mac is connected to the internet via ADSL. I have an apple extreme router connected to my ADSL router.
    Has anyone managed to make Back To My Mac work in the UK over ADSL? If so, what hardware did you use?

    All ISP-provided equipment is junk. You could get a decent router and connect it to the Verizon router in bridge mode. It should cost about $ 30.

  • G4 powerbook can´t activate back to my mac function

    With my g4 powerbook I can connect to mobileme but when I try to activate the back to my mac function i am told that there are connection problems. Thos causes that I can´t use the back to my mac function. Do you have any ideas?
    Thank you in advance!

    I use a supplied router (o2) as the DHCP server and a number of extremes in bridging mode to extend my local network. The networks at my offices all use non Apple routers,. Back to my mac works across my LAN and my WAN but doesn't seem to be able to wake sleeping macs across the WAN.

  • Can't use Back to my Mac on OS X Lion

    Hi,
    I have upgraded both my MacBook Pro and iMac 27" to OS X Lion, and set up everything as suggested for the iCloud, but I still can't use Back to my Mac function.  In fact, on the macbook pro, I can't even see the shared sidebar (after trying several suggestions from the communities from 2008).  And on the iMac, I can see the shared sidebar, but there is no option for Back to my Mac.  I sware I've ticked Back to my Mac on the Finder's preferences, and everything apparent from the iCloud.
    It'd be great if someone can point me to the right direction.  Thanks!
    Cheers,

    Carolyn,
    After clicking your link, I think the solution described therein may work -- however, I brought my MBP to the Genius Bar and gave it to them the next 24-48 hours so they could run diagnostic tests, so I am not able to experiment with your solution.  I will say this, though: while I was still trying to fix it myself, I DID get the "Allow me to use my Apple ID to reset my account password" checkbox, which I checked, and on the next screen where it lists my various User Accounts (mine, and Guest), I clicked on mine, typed the password (and every conceivable other password I could possibly think of), but nothing worked.  Then, when it gave me my security question and gave me a link to "Reset my password," no other window popped up to allow me to perform the reset.
    All in all, I'm fairly convinced this is a hardware issue, not a software issue.  My system recognizes my HD sometimes, but not others. Perhaps there is something wrong with the cable connecting the HD to the logic board.

  • Can't Get Back to My Mac

    I have tried without success to get Back to My Mac working since downgrading from MobileMe to iCloud.  It can find some of the Macs on my network but not others, and it's never the same ones that get found or not found from one day to the next.  In addition, I can't connect between Macs on the LAN using Back to My Mac even though they're all signed into the same iCloud account.  I have UPnP enabled on my router and have opened the necessary ports per the troubleshooting guide on Apple's website, but nothing resolves the problems.  Does anyone have Back to My Mac working correctly with a non-Apple router?

  • How can I make Adobe Photoshop 5.0LE work on my new PC running Windows 8?

    How can I make Adobe Photoshop 5.0LE work on my new PC running Windows 8?

    Adobe Photoshop LE is too old. I do not think it will work in compatability mode. It was made circa 1998 before XP. It is time to pony up for new software. Adobe Photoshop Elements is inexpensive and provides a world of capabilities undreamt in 1998.

  • I already bought mac book pro last year but it can't view windows just like mac pro for education. I want to make like it. How?

    I already bought mac book pro last year but it can't view windows just like mac pro for education. I want to make like mac pro for education How?

    First, if you have a MACBOOK PRO (a laptop), you should post in that forum. MAC PRO (desktop) and Macbook Pro are different things, so when you use those terms interchangeably, it's impossible to know what you're talking about.
    Second, even guessing that you have a laptop, I still have no idea what your question means. Are you trying to load Microsoft Windows on it? Every Mac can run Windows using either Boot Camp or Parallels/Fusion/VMWare solutions. Please explain in more detail what you're trying to do, and we'll try to help. But post in the Macbook Pro forum if you're talking about a laptop.
