Does this work over the internet

Hi,
My Dad totally f*'d his computer up, throwing away lots of files and applications and things he shouldn't have. He didn't empty the trash, but he has no idea where the things go now. Is there any way I can connect remotely using ARD and put things back for him? His internet connection isn't even working, but assuming that we get it back, can I control his computer remotely from another state, across the internet?
Thanks
Bob

In a word, yes.

  • How to get Profile Manager working over the internet?

    I've set up profile manager at home and it work great on my local network. Now I wanted to make it work over the internet but I can't figure out how to do so. I've already opened the required ports. When I try accessing the User Portal trought my <external ip>/mydevices it asks me whether I trust a certificate or not, but when I choose "ok" it keeps requesting the URL forever until it times out. Am I required to have a registered domain name to access my server or I can just use my external IP ? Is there anything else I should do in order to have it working?

    First off, you say you've opened 'the required ports', but which ones are they, in your opinion?
    That may sound like a dumb question, but it isn't meant to be. You'll need port 443 to support HTTPS connections, and 1640 for the Certificate Enrollment server.
    Additionally, you WILL need a valid domain for this - at least if you don't want authentication errors. SSL certificates rely on the hostname (amongst other things) to provide validation and if you access the site via IP address that validation is doomed to failure. That shoudkn't lead to the problem you're experiencing, which is no response at all, but it's still an issue to resolve.

  • HTMLResources, does this work in the adobe content viewer on the iPad

    HTMLResources, does this work in the adobe content viewer. I have created my HTMLResources folder with the pdf and zipped it. It how ever does not download anything when I press the button in the content viewer.

    Hi Bob, I just did my test again. What I didn't do in the first place was zip the contents, not the folder. It worked, thank you very much. My next question is can these pdfs be saved into ibooks? Can we download content such as forms that can be filled in and then eamiled back via the ipad mail program?

  • 1GB PC2-5300 667MHz DDR2 Does this work on the 867 Mhz Powerbook?

    PNY 1GB PC2-5300 667MHz DDR2 SODIMM
    Does this work on the 12-inch 867 Mhz Powerbook?
    I know for a fact that it can be upgraded to 1 Gigabyte, but I'm not sure of the exact brands/models that are compatible.

    So is the 1 GB PC2700 the highest/newest model that can be used?
    You could install, for example, PC3200 DDR memory, however, the Powerbook will only use it at the PC2700 level. So no advantage there from a performance standpoint.
    I'm not asking if I can go higher than 1 GB. I already know that 1GB is the maximum. I'm asking if there are other 1 GB cards besides the PC2700. Perhaps other cards that are available and compatible.
    I would stick with Crucial, Kingston (not their valueram), or Samsung memory. You have the link to Crucial, and Kingston is at http://www.kingston.com and Samsung is sold through distributors. OWC at http://www.macsales.com is one vendor I've bought from and would recommend. I've used all 3 brands in Powerbooks with no issues.
    Also this is off topic, but where can I find the tool to remove the certain screws near the keyboard and the lower part of the monitor?
    Tools you might be using are a #0 Phillips head (Lowe's $2 with a companion small flathead), a T6 Torx screwdriver (should also be available at Lowe's), a 4mm socket, and possibly a small allen hex wrench.

  • Can TC work over the internet?

    I would like to get a TC, but before that I would like to know if TC can work over the internet, if am at school or work, just open it as it was a local hdd and stream some music or files.
    thanks in advance

    I can access my Time Capsule hard drive over the Internet from a Mac but not from a Windows Vista PC that is able to connect to a shared disk behind an AEBSn router from the Internet.
    In other words, remote connections to Time Capsule hard disks do not seem to work from PCs even though local network connections do seem to work for both Time Capsule internal hard disks and for USB-connected hard disks.
    I would be interested to know if anyone else has had a different experience with respect to Windows PC connections.

  • Xmlnamespaces clause of xmltable: Does it go over the internet for xsd?

    Hi,
    I've got a query from xmltable passing an xmltype variable.
    Something like this:
    select id, name, data
    From XMLTable(XMLNamespaces ('https://www3.somesite.es/bla/bla/bla/thexsd.xsd' as "n1" ,
                                        'https://www3.somesite.es/bla/bla/bla/otherxsd.xsd' as "co") ,
                         '/n1:some/tag' passing l_my_xmltype_var
    COLUMNS id        NUMBER(20)      PATH '//n1:id' ,
                                 name        VARCHAR2(9)     PATH '//n1:name' ,
                                 data     VARCHAR2(125)   PATH '//co:datatxt') XThis query is run in a loop, and we are trying to improve its performance.
    Dba tells me that everytime the query is run, it has to retrieve both xsd over the internet.
    1. Is this true?
    2. If it is ... Could I store the xsds local or even inside the database? (I've heard something about schema registering)
    Thanks

    julius wrote:
    The actual query has over 75 columns. Its major consumption is spent on java, so I have to assume that is due to the underneath parsing process of xmltable.
    You are OR doing something (horribly) wrong OR should upgrade to a database version bigger than or equal to 10.2.0.3.x
    PLEASE post your database version (all digits!)
    Do you mean that, even working with a local xmltable passing an xmltype variable (not an actual structured xml table), registering the schema will do good to the performance?Yep, for example avoiding those JAVA calls... validation via registered XML Schema's is optimized if not only due to its based kernel code, that is C - code
    I suppose I would have to:
    1. Register the xsd
    2. Reference it when I create the xmltype variable (adding the second parameter to the xmltype function).
    Correct.
    Then, during the xmltable processing, the engine will be smart enough to use the registered xsd info to improve the query performance? Ok, I'm a bit skeptical, but will give it a try.
    I will also try to help the processing by specifying the full tree path instead of using "//tag".
    It will make a difference (providing you are at least on 10.2.0.3.x regarding using XMLTABLE, that is the XQuery engine...
    As a curiosity, all this query optimization quest came when - after a modification - performance of the query dropped from 5 seconds to 90 seconds. Things went south when I added an * in the select list instead of refering the columns with their names. So it doesn't seem a good idea to use * with a high column number xmltableCould be, but can't tell. This kind of issues are depending on a lot of parameters and environment settings. It could be a bind issue or...or...
    That's one of the reasons we need the database version to give you a better answer...

  • Please Help! RDS not working over the internet

    Hello Everyone,
    I recently set up a new server that is running Server 2008 R2 and need to get RDS setup so that I can connect to the server using a remote desktop connection over the internet.
    I can access the web access site over the internet and login as expected but it does not allow me to connect via remote desktop to the server using its FQDN. It just gives me the typical can't connect message. I have verified that connecting via remote desktop
    using the RDS web access site works within my local network.
    So far I have done the following:
    - Added the server to the domain and assigned a static IP address that is public on the internet (associated dns record also added by my ISP)
    - Added all of the RDS roles except for virtualization host and added appropriate settings throughout the wizard
    - Configured and added a self-signed ssl cert
    - Added the server as a web access server
    - Disabled Firewall and Security software on the server for testing purposes
    That said, can anybody shed some light on what I may have missed? When entering the computer name over the internet, do I have to add a port or anything like that? It's odd that I can connected to the web access page which is hosted on the server I am trying
    to connect to via remote desktop but I cannot actually use remote desktop.
    This is my first time attempting to use RDS so maybe I just missed an important step somewhere.
    Any help with this would be greatly appreciated!

    I added the certificate to the PC I'm trying to connect from and I'm still getting the same error.
    This is what I'm seeing below, I figure pictures speak louder than words in this case.
    Under the Remote Desktop link:
    Connect to:
    Remote Desktop size:
    Options
    Devices and resources (followed by checkboxes for them)
    Additional Options
    Remote computer sounds:
    Apply keyboard shortcuts:
    Performance:
    When I click connect a warning comes up saying unknown publisher and when I click connect I get the error again.
    That said, I went into RD Session Host Server Settings and under the RD Session Host Server tab I checked a box that says "Show a remote desktop connection to this RD Session Host server in RD Web Access" and now under the
    remoteapp programs link on the RDWeb there is an icon for Remote Desktop. When I click the icon it automatically tried to connect me to the server and lists the publisher and remote computer as the same rather than giving me a warning.
    Additionally, in the RD Session Host Server Settings it does say the server name as the FQDN RDP port 3389 under "connection settings" in the same tab.
    edit: I am going to put together some pictures so you can see exactly what I'm seeing on the RDWeb and will post again with a link once I have them up.

  • Can ARD work over the internet?

    I have used ARD over my local network, but would like to use it over the internet ( i.e. off site).
    Is there any way this can be achieved?
    Joe

    Joe
    You're welcome.
    AFAIK there is nothing 'definitive' that could be defined as a step-by-step guide. Simply too many variables. Not everyone uses the same hardware for example.
    Some of the instructions given already should help you configure the firewall/router at the remote site? How you negotiate and configure the firewall depends on what's being used. They all vary. Assuming you're at the remote site enable Remote Management. System Preferences > Sharing > Remote Management. Tick all the options.
    At this point a sensible precaution would be beefing up the local admin account's password. It's your choice.
    Assign the workstation the fixed private IP address you decided on when configuring the Firewall. For example if the remote site's local network is using addresses in the 192.168.x.x range then assign an IP address that seems suitable to you. You can do this in the Network Preferences Pane. To make it easier you could use the "Using DHCP with manual address" option.
    The only other piece of information you need is the external IP address at the remote site. If it's a fixed IP you should have no problems. If it's dynamically assigned a phone call (assuming someone's there) to the remote site is all you need do prior to controlling the workstation.
    To find out what external IP address is being used launch a browser and in the url key in:
    http://www.myipaddress.com
    At your end select Connect to server from the Go Menu and key in:
    vnc://theipaddressoftheremotesite
    At the prompt enter an admin account name and password and you should be looking at the remote workstations' desktop.

  • I have a 2.2 GHz Intel Core i7 macbook pro that has lion installed when I recieved it, according to the support pages AHT is supposed to work over the internet if it wasn't installed, Mine wasn't and it doesn't work. Where can I download it from?

    I Have a 2.2 GHz Intel Core i7 macbook pro, I recieved it with OSx 7.2 lion installed, I need to us AHT (apple hardware test) according to the support page that I copy here
    Additional Information
    Apple Hardware Test is included on the DVDs that are shipped with some Macintosh computers. If the copy on your hard drive becomes unavailable, use the DVDs to run Apple Hardware Test.
    For Intel-based Apple computers that shipped with Mac OS X v10.5.4  or earlier, Apple Hardware Test is located on the Mac OS X Install Disc 1  and should be included with your computer.
    For Apple computers that shipped with Mac OS X v10.5.5 to 10.6.7, Apple Hardware Test is located on the Applications Install  Disc 2 and should be included with your computer.
    For some Apple computers that shipped with OS X Lion, if Apple Hardware Test cannot be found on the hard drive, an Internet-based version starts up instead.
    This doesn't work as the additional information statement says it should above.  Could someone at apple give me an idea of where to get it or what the "REAL" solution is, since it doesn't work on an internet version which was confirmed today at the Genius Bar in the Apple store.
    Please help me

    Thanks, while it worked on yours it doesn't work on mine, any other ideas?
    Are you holding down the "d" key, all by itself, just after the system shuts down for a restart?
    And how long did you hold it down?
    I held mine down for about 40-50 seconds. Then I lookat at my routers WAN light and it was flickering so I let up on the d key.
    If that does not work then maybe there is something wrong with your MBP. Is that the reason you want to run this test, something isn't right with your unit?

    Documents to Go synchronizes with the Documents to Go Desktop application, which is free bonus software you must download and install on your computer to establish the sync conduit. I don't have a Centro so I don't know exactly where on Palm you download it from, details should be on install CD or in Getting Started.

  • How do I listen to my home iTunes library at work via the Internet?

    I know this question must have been asked before, and if so, I apologize; I did some digging and didn't find anything. I do know that if I could somehow find iTunes 4.0 to install on both my home and work Macs, that I could just access my home library at work over the Internet (though I've heard that could cause an entirely new set of problems). I also have heard that I can use Shoutcast + Audion to create my own music server and access it that way, but programming is not what I would call a strength of mine, and the Shoutcast download doesn't seem to come with the instructions I was looking for, and their site wasn't any help.
    Basically, I'm wondering if anyone has a fairly straightforward way to access their iTunes library over the Internet. I supposedly have a dynamic IP at home (the would-be 'server') but I've found ways I can address that (no-ip.com, for instance), assuming my IP does actually change. Could I put my music in my Shared folder and access it that way? Sounds too easy a solution...
    Thanks in advance for any assistance.
    Mini 1.42Ghz G4   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    The two biggest obstacles to doing this are your ISP, and your network admin at work. If you leave your computer on at home with iTunes running and you have set it to share, provided your own ISP will allow it, and your employer permits you to access your home IP address, you should be able to share the library. Most office networks won't allow outside system access though.
