How can I remotely enable Screen Sharing remotely on 10.8?

Is there a way to remotely enable Screen Sharing from another mac? I'm using 10.8.

I assume you mean by remote login.
To enable via SSH to an admin account:
sudo launchctl load -F /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.screensharing.plist
To disable:
sudo launchctl remove com.apple.screensharing

    I have my boyfriend's apple ID and password, how do I check what apps he has on his phone? ( not all the apps that he had downloaded, but the ones that are actually on his phone). And How can I remotely download apps to his phone if I have his ID and PW?
    Thank you so much

    If you want seperate accounts for managing apps and purchasing content, basically yes, you need two account and would need to repurchase. However, if you just want seperate ID for iMessgae, icloud and such, you can do that and still continue sharing the same Id for apps and itunes.

    How can i remote a computer outside of my nextwork and has a dynamic IP.
    I have have mac set up overseas and will need to remote access it from time to time, but the mac has a dynamic IP, is there anyway around for me to access IT.
    Have been using "log me in" but its too slow.
    Thanks in advance for any assistance

    The subject of connecting ARD via the Internet has been covered here many times already (search the forum for "Internet"), but take a look at this web page:
    http://www.starklmc.com/ard.htm
    It should help, though you may have to refer to your router's documentation for specifics on opening and forward ports in that particular unit.
    To get a "static IP" use a service like dyndns.com

    You cannot...you must be on the iPhone to turn it on, there are not those kinds of remote controls.

  • Enabling screen sharing through .mac or VNC

    I want to enable screen sharing on my desktop computer from another network (so I can connect to my home machine from the office, or on the road). I have successfully enabled my router to allow VNC traffic, and have been able to connect from my laptop on another network. Everything seems to be working fine besides the fact that I am concerned about having port 5900 open on my home router. Is connecting using a .mac account more secure? I suppose I would be able to turn off port 5900 on my router, but I'd also have to pay $100 a year, and worry about someone hacking my .mac account also (I really wish that apple would come out with [FREE] remote desktop software like windows!).

    My last effort
    turn on process accounting:
    "mkdir /var/account"
    "touch /var/account/acct"
    "accton /var/account/acct" or reboot
    "chmod o-rx /usr/bin/lastcomm"
    "chmod -R o-rx /var/account"
    Everything has to be run in sudo. If you do the above, then run sudo lastcomm and check what that says.

  • Enabling ARD client automatically enables Screen Sharing

    Basically the exact opposite problem described here http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=8910629&#8910629
    If I enable ARD client on any machine, whether it's running Leopard, Tiger or Panther, other Leopard client users are potentially able to observe and control that machine using the Screen Sharing feature, if they had the correct username and password, and the client being observed would have no idea. Fortunately they haven't figured this out yet.
    This is a problem for me, as I need the ability to observe/control other client machines in this office using my ARD admin, but I need to ensure my Leopard users cannot do the same thing using the Screen Sharing feature.

    The problem is that I almost always inevitably end up having to reveal the admin password at some point when I'm trouble shooting a staff member's Mac over the phone while he's overseas on business for example.
    Once a user name and password slip out, there's really not much you can do to keep people out. Even if you have a special account for ARD, if someone else has administrator privileges, they can just turn on Screen Sharing or Remote Management for their account. So only if your users are good about not turning that on can you really keep unauthorized users out of your systems.
    You might want to look into "neutered" admin accounts. It's a bit tricky, but it is possible to give some administrator privileges to an account but not all of them. Then you could perhaps allow the privileges your users need but still keep them from giving away the keys to the entire system. There's a PDF of a MacWorld session available here (clicking that link will download a zipped file). It's a bit old, but it should still be valid, and it's sketchy (it's the preso slides) but might provide sufficient information. If it's too sketchy, I have a QuickTime of the session the same people presented in 2008 that I could give you if you have a place to upload it (it's too large to email).

    A. Only if the device is online.
    B. Only if you set up Find My Phone before the theft.
    What To Do If Your iDevice Is Lost Or Stolen
    If you activated Find My Phone before it was lost or stolen, you can track it only if Wi-Fi is enabled on the device. What you cannot do is track your device using a serial number or other identifying number. You cannot expect Apple or anyone else to find your device for you. You cannot recover your loss unless you insure your device for such loss. It is not covered by your warranty.
    If your iPhone, iPod, iPod Touch, or iPad is lost or stolen what do you do? There are things you should have done in advance - before you lost it or it was stolen - and some things to do after the fact. Here are some suggestions:
    This link, Re: Help! I misplaced / lost my iPhone 5 today morning in delta Chelsea hotel downtown an I am not able to track it. Please help!, has some good advice regarding your options when your iDevice is lost or stolen.

  • How can I get the screen to lock on my iPhone 4, so I don't press buttons while talking?

    I just upgraded to the iPhone 4.  When I am talking on the phone, the screen doesn't lock, so I am constantly pressing buttons or hanging up on the person I'm talking to.  How can I get the screen to lock while I'm talking?  It's driving me NUTS.

    The otterbox is one of the culprits. Take the phone out of the case and see if it still happens. If so it is not the case. If the problem goes away, then you may need to make the hole slightly larger. My family has three iPhone 4's in otterboxes and none have this problem. Other users on this forum have reported success with the above methods.

  • TS4036 How Can I re-enable my disabled from my Computer(the Ipad doesn't allow me any access to the Ipad)

    How can I re-enable a disabled Ipad from my computer?

    By not allowing enough time to reset, do you mean you have tried a reboot by holding both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears, ignoring the red slider?  If so, are you able to power down just using the power button?  Does it then restart on its own?
    If you cannot get it to reboot, stay powered down, take it to an Apple store genius bar and have the technicians test it to see what is wrong...that is most likely a hardware issue.
