You want to control them by turning on/off, changing channels?  Or displaying content?  If so, what content do you want to display?

  • Back To My Mac: Anyone get it to work over the net?

    I can't. It works fine on my home network, an apple extreme and several expresses. But over the net it doesn't work at all. I've tried both from work, and also by logging on to my neighbor's airport network. in both cases, the icon for my home iMac disappears.
    I downloaded the guide from the Apple site for BTMM and followed the instructions, but nothing seems to work.
    Anybody have any luck with this? than

    Do both routers have to be configured correctly? Both the router you're sending from, and the router your mac that's being controlled is talking to? I thought it was just the later...
    <<Even if these routers do support one of these protocols and have this support enabled, odds are good your office's firewall is simply going to block any traffic it doesn't recognize. Similarly, unless your neighbor has agreed to let you configure his or her router as you please, I would not expect this to work, either. >>

  • Nokia - Firmware over the net and over the air gen...

    Don't know if anyone else noticed this, it came out quietly as far as I can see, but now nokia are offering firmware upgrades to N series devices over the net (and over the air if you've an N80). See here http://www.nokia.co.uk/nokia/0,1522,,00.html?orig=/softwareupdate . A stroke of genius as far as I'm concerned.
    As an aside, this also puts the latest firmware for Orange on the N70, and gives you an option to disable the dreaded "Homescreen of Death". Doesn't get active standby back though unfortunately.

    No N80 support at this time though.
    I'm keeping my eyes peeled though....

  • Control Apple TV over the imac?

    Is there any chance to control apple tv over the Mac (wifi)? I have my apple tv on on a beamer and I don't like to start the beamer all time if I like to hear music without streaming it.

    You can't control an ATV directly from your computer, but you can set the audio output of iTunes to play through the ATV. If you have an iPhone or an iPod touch, you can use the Remote app on that to control an ATV, however.

  • Screen sharing over the net. Is it possible.

    I was wondering if someone with screen sharing abilities could help out. I was wondering. Is it possible to share screens over the net. For example, my mom is like a 100 miles away. Running Leopard. How could I access her screen so that I could show here what to do. Heres the states, her computer has a router. My computer has a router. How can we sharing screens. Where would be long into and how. I know of the program in System/corservices/screensharing When I click it it asks for host. I dunno if that was the right way to go but any help here would be amazing. Thank oyu.

    It is possible apparently, but if there is a router in the equation, that may well cause problems. If your Mom is using a Mac, this screen sharing facility is also available via iChat.

  • Can anyone advise on how to share large files over the net?

    Hi all.
    So I need to share large video files over the net.
    The files will be between 5 and 10 GB
    Does anyone have a solution for this?
    I have been using my ftp program and just giving the recipient the download link.
    But its affecting my upload quota and the recipients download quaota with our ISP's.
    Is there an easier way at all?
    Thanks.

    Contact the ISP for a temporary exception on the quota, or to get an explanation of how long before you can send a second segment for the download.  You can split large downloads by UUEncoding them, or making separate disk image segments with Disk Utility.  You could also find out if any local WiFi hotspots don't have a quota issue.  Lastly, you could send a thumbdrive by mail.

  • What is the ipad2 activation code to use in viewing NETFLIX instant view DVDs over the net?

    Where do I find the activation code to be able to watch NETFLIX streaming DVDs over the net??

    I get the statement "streaming on this device is not supported on your plan".  My plan includes 'unlimited streaming' using the IPAD2 app.

    Just to confirm: are you sure you entered the correct account info on the iPad?  (Some of my client's have more than one Netflix account.)  Then try resetting the iPad.  That often "fixes" many issues.  After that, you'll probably need to contact Netflix support to confirm that you do have streaming.  Otherwise possibly restoring your iPad so that it'll wipe the existing Netflix config, so you can re-enter it again.

  • I try to generate a chm file over the net and I get a compiling error message

    Hi all,
    I am trying to generate chm files over the net, and the same project when I am generating the same chm locally works fine, however when I am attempting to generate the same chm on a network location, it gives me a compiling error and aborts the generation. It is also keeping the chm file open afterwards, so I have to reboot the machine.
    It is RH7 working on a Windows XP Pro 32 bit.
    Thank you

    It is not a project issue. RoboHelp is just not designed to work that way but like a lot of things, some people can use them outside what they were designed for. However, just because some people can work that way, it does not follow everyone can.
    I've seen people with projects on a network and they say have been doing it for years so it must be OK. A while later they come back and say the problem is fixed since moving it locally.
    Sorry but it looks like you are stuck with working the way you do or getting your colleague to do it. It might be as simple as he is on a different bit of your network.

  • How do i transfer files between two macs over the net (FTP)

    Hi,
    Couldn't find a thread like this, apologies if its been discussed already recently, I'm trying to enable two iMacs both Intel, both running 10.4.10 to be able to swap files (quite large 350MB) over the net just using Tiger.
    We both have .Mac accounts but the files only upload properly to our iDisk 1 out of 3 times and its getting annoying, I basically want my mate to be able to drag a file off my HD onto his via the net using no other programs just Tiger, is this possible?
    If not, what's the best free program to use.
    Thanks

    You'll have to get an FTP client as the Finder only reads, not writes to an FTP server. I can't suggest a free one. You will also need to open your computers up to the world. If you don't know how to do that, search for Port Forwarding and your particular router. You'll have to open up port 21 for FTP.
    Plain old FTP is not very secure, so you shouldn't leave it open all the time. SFTP is Secure FTP, and you can use Fugu to use it. You'll still need to set up Port forwarding, but you can pick whatever port number you want. Fugu lets you pick the port number. You should set up standard users on each machine and make a sftpTransfer folder in the /Users/Shared/ folder. This will allow each of you to access the files. sftp allows anyone to see the directory structure, but still maintains the permissions from OS X. So, as standard users, you can look into each other's Home folder, but you won't be able to get into the subfolders or transfer files to or from any unshared locations.
    By the way, I wrote an entire post describing how to use sftp from the command line before I decided to look for a client app for you. Then I found Fugu and changed it all.
    Edit:
    I forgot to mention you must turn on Remote Login in the sharing pane, and you'll have to use port 22 as this is the only one Mac OS allows remote connections on.

  • I cant boot over the Net

    I tried a network boot by choosing F12 showed on the startup menu to connect to a W2K RIS server.
    the system seems to ignore F12 and starts from the HD. the onboard LAN adapter (Intel 100) is activated.
    then i tried to make a net-bootdisk with the RIS-Server Tool RBFG.exe.
    this tools sais that it cant find a netboot supported NIC in the system. grrrr
    i just wonder whether PXE is supported in the BIOS of the pe865 board....
    furthermore the onboard nic should be able to boot over the lan...
    any ideas what i do wrong. I was 100% sure that this board supports PXE
    ray, switzerland

    the KT6 with broadcom 5788 LOM supports PXE via netboot BIOS. I cannot find documention on this, though.  

  • ARD Over the net

    Hi All
    Just purchased ARD and i need to know is it possiblt to log on to another mac and take control etc, over the interent. EG. I have a mac at home and i have another mac at the other end of the country, i have put the IP address in of the mac i want to see but now joy. Is it possible and any ideas why cant i see that machine.
    Cheers
    Cottie

    "Just purchased ARD and i need to know is it possiblt to log on to another mac and take control etc, over the interent."
    Yes. If you search the ARD forum you'll note that this question has been asked and aswered over and over again. What you'll find is that ports 5900 and 3283 need to be opened/forwarded on all routers and switches at each end of the connection.
    So open them on any routers and switches on your local network, and do the same for the client you want to control at the other end.
    Also make sure that Apple Remote Desktop sharing is turned on and configured in the System Prefernces --> Sharing for the client.

  • Control home appliance over the internet

    Hi .
    I am doing a project using Java & C on linux to control a home appliance attached to my system.. it needs a little cheap electronic ckts ..and i have developed a small gui to control it ovwer the network. it works fine till there.. now i want to extend its functionality over the internet. The issues are
    -> how do i identify the (ipadd) machine thats running my app if i use a dial up conxn where the ip add changes every session
    ( In short how do i control the machine @ my home from somewhere else like an internet cafe) ???
    I use a datagram based socket & packet for implementing this.. any suggestions?

    how do i identify the (ipadd) machine thats running my app if i use a dial up conxn where the ip add changes every session ?
    "(ipadd) machine thats running my app" - Which machine are you talking about? You have 2 to 3 systems. One is your machine in Internet cafe and another is the home appliance. And/Or you can have a middleware machine in your home. Either way you should know the IP Address or URL address. Else you will not be able to connect.
    how do i control the machine @ my home from somewhere else like an internet cafe) ???
    You can have 3 systems. One in Internet cafe, second, a middleware machine in your home and third is your home appliance. The middleware has a application enabled by wired or bluetoothed to talk to the home appliance. The middleware can have a URL or IPAddress. Connect to this machine from your cafe and do the neccessary.
    Good wishes,

  • HT4904 imac 24-inch, Early 2009 can use hardware test over the net?

    My imac keeps freezing on me over the more trivial things like youtubing or running apps I got for my toddler son. It's frustrating and I don't know if my hardware si to blame.
    Can I run hardware test ove rthe web since I'm using mountain lion now?
    Also It seems like this is already addressed but the fix doesn't fix it because al alredy have it installed:
    About iMac EFI Firmware Update 1.4
    This update fixes intermittent system freeze issues for iMac computers with ATI Radeon HD 4850 graphics and fixes wake-from-sleep issues in Boot Camp.

    Also I want to point that they had this problem before : https://discussions.apple.com/thread/1978213?tstart=0
    It was fixed with the new firmware but since I updated to Lion the problem started for me. Does you knwo if they eill release a new firmware update that takes care of the problem now?

  • Report Generation over the net?

    is there ANYTHING out ther for this? (ie crystal reports designer)
    i want to add something to create ad hoc reports over the internetweb, but from what i can see there is nothing out there that is a "viable" solution.
    am i going to have to develop something by myself? if so what do you think the best approach would be, javascript? perhaps flash?
    i must stay away from anything that is IE centric, for obvious reasons
    thanks.

    We use jfreechart. It is not as fully featured but it does the job for us and is free.

    I would like to make an API, so that when the program
    gets the parameters,it automatically downloads and
    processes them and then provides the output file??
    Do,I need to establish a HTTP connection to that
