Does Remote Desktop let you log into a work computer and allow you to work from home?

I want to know if this is a program I shuld purchase where I can log into my computer at work from home & work from home?

http://www.apple.com/remotedesktop/
But if all you need is to connect to and from your work computer, whether to take control of the other computer or to access files, ARD would be overkill. You can share files via the built-in file sharing and you can take control via one of the free solutions such as VNC or LogMeIn (assuming your work's network allows such access).

  • I have 2 Apple IDs but itunes store on my computer will only let me log into my old one and not the new one...HELP!

    So i had an old apple id i had created to use with my ipod but never ended up syncing them.  So when i got my iPhone i created a new apple ID with my new email address.  Well i went to log into itunes store on my computer (PC) and it wont let me log in with my new apple ID, just the old one.  I get the same message everytime i try it: "We could not complete your iTunes Store request.  The iTunes store is temporarily unavailable.  Please try again later." so i did try again.  and again.  and again.  its been a few weeks now and it gives me the same message everytime.  Its frusterating because everytime i sync my iPhone to my computer to backup and whatnot, all the music i bought on my phone doesnt sync and undownloads itself from my phone.  What can i do??

  • I just installed lion on my macbook pro it doesn't let me log into my username. so what im going to do is to restore it and reinstall lion any help on how to do it correctly tho??

    Chuck
    Without knowing what exactly has gone wrong it is difficult to be precise, but it sounds a bit like you are attempting to install YOUR copy of Lion on your friend's machine?
    I'm not sure the licence allows you to do that.
    IF you are attempting to install a legitimate copy of Lion on his machine, then I would suggest you try again. That sometimes works.
    Do you / he have a backup?
    Have you tried starting from the recovery disk and repairing the hard drive etc.?

  • Is there any way to see if any other FaceTime id or iCloud account has logged into my personal iPhone and iPad

  • How to get my apple computer to let me log into it remotely

    how do I get my apple computer to let me log into it remotely from another computer?

    First, you should be asking this question is the Mac OS X forum associated with the version of Mac OS X you are running (Leopard, Snow Leopard, Lion, Mountain Lion, Mavericks, Yosemite).  If you tell use the version of Mac OS X you are using, we can ask the moderators to move this post to that forum.
    Back-to-My-Mac is what you would use if both Macs are yours using the same Apple iCloud account.
    <https://www.apple.com/support/icloud/back-to-my-mac/>
    <Set up and use Back to My Mac - Apple Support>
    If you are trying to connect to someone else's Mac (a family member, or friend), then you can use iChat (older versions of Mac OS X) or Messages to initiate Screen Sharing.
    <Messages (Mavericks): Share your screen>
    You could also use TeamViewer.com which is very good at connecting to a remote Mac (or Windows, as it is cross-platform) across the internet and navigating through home routers.
    <http://TeamViewer.com>
    The next level of complexity would involve opening ports in the destination home router.  This is non-trivial, and hopefully one of the above 3 methods will do the job.  PortForward.com has documents providing step-by-step guides on how to setup port forwarding for a huge list of routers
    <http://portforward.com/>
    Again, hopefully, you do not need this level of complexity.  But if you do please let us know.

  • Won't let me log into other admin acoount no more..

    Hi, I've had my Imac for 5 yrs now and never ran into this problem before. My husband has filevault on his account and I don't.We are both admin. I log into my account daily and have no problems. A few days ago, we had bad weather....while loggin off his account, the filevault or firevault(sorry for my stupidity here ) came on and was doing it's thing...than power went off. Never though much of it until I tried to logged into his account yesterday and it does nothing and freezes there. I enter password and click log in and it does absolutely nothing at all!! I press return, but it doesn't even try to log it. The curser stays there...than I have to power off/on cause it won't let me go back to log into mine. Can anyone help me! Obviously there's a corruption on his side...I did the startup disk with the CD on mine and repaired disk and permissions, did the pram and all....still nothing..Any suggestions pls? Lorraine

    Hooray! Was it Easyfind that found it?
    # Select the disk image in Disk Utility.
    # Click the First Aid tab.
    # Click the Verify or Repair disk button, as desired. Note: If the image has issues than cannot be repaired, you may need to transfer files to a different location as discussed in this article.
    # When finished, quit Disk Utility.
    # Unmount (eject) the mounted disk image volume.
    # Get Info on the .sparseimage disk image file again, and change the owner back to the original account name. Note: If this is not done, your Home may not be available when logging in as the protected account.
    # Get Info in the enclosing folder in /Users again, and change the owner back to the original account name. Verify that this is successful by closing and trying to open the account name folder (you shouldn't be able to).
    # Log out and log back in as the original, FileVault-protected account.
    Or with the Disk image mounted, now use Easyfind to search it for those pics or folder.

  • I'm trying to verify my apple id but when i log into icloud to get the email it says 'the apple id has not been verifed.' So how do i verify my account if it wont let me log into to icloud mail?

    I'm trying to verify my apple id but when i log into icloud to get the email it says 'the apple id has not been verifed.' So how do i verify my account if it wont let me log into to icloud mail? stressing me out please help me

    You have to respond to the verification email that Apple should have sent to you by clicking the Verify Now link.  Make sure you check the email address you used to set up your iCloud account.  This would not normally be an @icloud.com email address.  Also make sure you check the spam/junk folder as well as the inbox.  If it isn't there, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage your Apple ID, sign in, click on Name, ID and Email addresses on the left, then to the right click Resend under your Primary Email Address to resend the verification email.

  • I can't log into my YouTube account and each time I try the screen turns black, says "connection not trusted" and doesn't allow me the option to add exception like it normally does when I recieve this message trying to log into a website.

    I just got new ATT dsl internet service. Now, when I try and log into my YouTube account and numerous other websites, instead of logging me in, the screen turns black with a message displayed saying, "connection not trusted." On most sites, it will give me the option to either, "get me out of here" or "I understand the risks, allow exception." When I try logging into YouTube, the only option I have is; "get me out of here!"

    Check the date and time in the clock on your computer: (double) click the clock icon on the Windows Taskbar.

  • Won't let me log into some of my accounts.

    My HTC droid incredible 2 won't let me log into some of my accounts. So Far it's only two accounts but still odd. When I try to log in to ether Hulu or windows live mail it gives me the invalid email or password. I have looked at the login info and they are correct but it just won't let me login. anyone have any suggestions?

        I want to get those accounts working for you Rempel2012! Those are certainly two very different accounts to be having trouble with. Is your Hulu account tied into your Windows Live Mail account with the same log in? Are you trying to log into these accounts through your web browser or through an application on your phone? Many of these log in errors may just be a result of the case sensitivity for the log in. Are you able to see the username and password as you enter it into your phone?
    I look forward to helping you solve this account log in mystery.
