How can I connect to multiple Macs over the internet?

I have forwarded the ports on my Airport Extreme as follows:
10.0.1.3 being assigned to my Mac Mini.
I also have a MacBook Pro at home I would like access to which has the 10.0.1.4 reserved/assigned. I cannot connect to it because the port forwarding points to the Mac Mini, and it doesn't allow me to create another rule since those ports are already being used by that first entry. How do I go about having the option to connect to either one of the two computers at home when I'm at work using Apple Remote Desktop?

it's not really a confirmed limitation of ARD, ARD is not designed to work outside of a LAN
it's designed for system admins to manage macs remotely while on the same LAN
but you want to use it outside of your LAN, you can by using VPN
VPN gives you remote secure access to your LAN
you will appear to be connected to your LAN
so you can do most things as you would if you were actually on your LAN
ARD does not facilitate a VPN connection
you'd connect using a VPN connection to your LAN then start ARD, ARD will behave just as it would if you were on the LAN
VPN client is built into OSX, system preferences, network, add choose VPN connection
You'd need a VPN server such as OSX server on your LAN
and configure any firewalls, routers etc to allow incoming VPN to connect to your server
You'd also need either a fixed external IP address and external domain name or use dynamic DNS setup
you could also try logmein

Thanks for replying. The plan you have it would be an additional charge to add the hotspot feature. It's not free with the Nationwide plan. You would need to add the feature online at www.verizonwireless.com/myverizon

How can i connect my 2008 mac book pro to a tv?

how can i connect my 2008 mac book pro to a tv?

The Mini-DVI to DVI adapter is designed for the iMac (Intel Core Duo), MacBook, and 12-inch PowerBook G4 — allowing you to connect to an external DVI monitor. It can also be used in combination with the Apple DVI to ADC adapter to support older Apple flat panel Studio or Cinema Displays.

How can I connect my 2009 Mac Mini to a TV that only has the Component inputs available? My Mac Mini has a Mini DisplayPort and Mini-DVI port. Thanks.

Composite is analogue with one connector. That is why it is called composite
Component is analogue with three connections. I think one for each color
Here is the one for component. I misread composite for component

Can i back up multiple macs to the same hard drive

can i back up multiple macs to the same hard drive

Yes, you simply share the drive to the network.. in whatever way that is possible as you have given us no info.. over the network TM will create sparsebundles.. locally it can produce a straight backup ..

After updating to 4.3 I can't connect to wi-fi because the "internet speeds are too slow". How much speed does this require?

After updating to 4.3 I can't connect to wi-fi because the "Internet speeds are too slow". So what speed does it need?

I called tech support and I got the same **** canned response, backup and reset to factory settings. Yeah right! Everything was fine until Verizon shoved the software update down my throat. I finally unchecked the box in Wi-Fi settings for auto network switch. However, I still get the "Your Internet connection is unstable" warning no matter what Wi-Fi connection I hit.
In a related story, I received a new or refurbished phone as my original SIII had AC/charging connection issues. I called probably three times to attempt to back up my data, went into two stores in attempts to have them transfer the information over, and all were too incompetent and inept to assist me. Only when talking to someone about this Wi-Fi issue, did someone actually know how to back up everything. Of course by this time, I had to send the new phone back because Verizon charged me $400 before I got everything squared away. What a colossal waste of my time!

Can you access time capsule from a mac over the internet

Can you access time capsule from a mac over the internet?

Yes. See this thread about how to access the disk attached to a Time Capsule. Access to the Time Capsule itself can be done similarly.

How do I access my time capsule over the internet

How do I access my time capsule over the internet. I've already set it up to share over WAN, but I have ATT so my TC is connected to the router provided by ATT can I still access my TC via the internet even though its not directly connected to the Ethernet?

The TC should be in bridge mode.. not setup to share over wan.. that will never work. That is assuming you haven't bridged the ATT router.
Once you bridge the TC see if you can setup BTMM using icloud settings in the TC. As per the Apple docos.. here.
You should also be able to directly access the TC since you have a router with dyndns client at a guess.. the setup is simply forward port 548 to the TC.
Google search this.. there is huge number of resources available. eg

I don't have a DSL or cable modem to access the Internet ... just a mobile WiFi (there is no cable available at our house). How do I connect my Time Capsule to the Internet via the mobile WiFi?

I don't have a DSL or cable modem to access the Internet ... just a mobile WiFi (there is no cable available at our house and the mobile WiFi is our only option). How do I connect my Time Capsule to the Internet via the mobile WiFi?

LOL!!
I am in Australia and the ISP... I think both the main ones would fit your description to a T.. big T in particular.
Your router is really unsuitable.. if it is only wireless and no ethernet.. just buy an ethernet one.
Do a search on ebay.. 3g router.
But you can get the TC to join a wireless network.
It is a non-standard setup that Apple will not support.. the option is hidden.
If you are on Lion download the 5.6 utility. Go to the wireless set up page and hold down the option key whilst selecting wireless mode.. a new option, join will appear. You can then put in the ssid and passkey of the 3g router.
But please note the end result of this setup..
very slow speed. The TC is now a second wireless hop from your clients.. this will halve the speed.
In this mode the ethernet are deactived.. for reasons only Apple know, they decided you should not use ethernet when doing this.

Can I load Office for Mac via the internet? I own the disks and have only loaded them twice.

If you are saying that you have one license left of a three license edition MS Office for Mac 2011, then all you have to do is download a MS Office trial for Mac from the MS website. Using the available license registration number, you can activate the downloaded trial and have the same functionality as if you had used the disks and registered with that same number.

Can not connect to other macs on the network.

Hi,
I am having an issue with a G5 Tower running 10.5.8 failing to connect to other macs on the network. I try to connect to our xserver and any other mac I get an error message that reads ‘EMSG_CONNECTION_FAILED’.
Anyone have any ideas?
Many thanks in advance,
pvteyes99

Turns out the 'node' on the hub had failed completely, ethernet cable was OK.

How secure is USB disk file data over the Internet?

I have an Airport Extreme with an external USB drive attached. I can successfully connect to the drive both from the internal network (LAN) and from the Internet. I have secured my drive using user accounts granting either read-only or read-write access. When connecting from the Internet, how secure is the data when it is being transferred over the Internet between the USB drive and my remote device (Mac, iPhone, iPad, etc.)?

Thank you, Kappy. I sincerely appreciate your input.
It appears that the Airport Express "Share On WAN Port" is not really a secure connection. File data is not secure as it is transferred over the Internet, which is what I suspected. So, in order to secure the data one would need to establish a VPN (or equivalent) connection to the local network and then access the Airport Extreme disk data via the VPN connection. I should note that in this scenario the "Share On WAN Port" would not be needed and should probably be disabled. For me, a VPN connection is necessary unless I only want to store and share files and data that I don't mind others obtaining while in transmission.
This is what I expected, but was hoping for something along the lines of what Apple's Messages does, which encrypts data from end-to-end between two (or more) users in a conversation to ensure the data/content is secure.
Thanks again.

Sharing files between two macs over the internet

I'm trying to work out how to connect two macs across the internet and am wondering if someone could point me in the direction of a "very basic , step by step, how to" file or manual.
I've browsed some of the discussion in this forum and some are more helpful than others but none seem to start with the very basics of what should or should not be turned on in the firewall settings and the the security issues mentioned in one ot two threads.
I'm not looking for " hold my hand tutorial" just a pointer to where I can do some more reading so I can inform myself and possibly ask some emore intelligent questions
I'm trying to connect a B&W G3, OSX 10.4.6, connect to the internet through a dsl modem over an ethernet network, to a remote Imac G5 , OSX 10.4.6 also connected through a different dsl modem over an ethernet network.
Thanks
