How can I 'screen share' from my Lion machine to my old Tiger mac?

I have a new MacPro running 10.7.3.
I have an old Mac desktop running Tiger (10.4)
I can't seem to screen share.
I want to remotely control the old Tiger machine from my Lion one.
I checked 'Remote Desktop' on the Tiger- but still no happiness.
I CAN mount the drives from that older computer just fine.

Mark, sorry for any misunderstanding, CoVNC is only needed if you want to control the newer one with the old one.
On the old one enable...
Personal File Sharing
Remote Login
Apple Remote Desktop
Remote Apple Events
On the ARD choice click Access Privileges and fill in what & who can do what.
Easiest to sign into the old one with the old one's username & old one's PW if you checked that as OK on the old one.

    how can i move contacts from outlook on my pc to my new mac?

    In Outlook export the contacts as vCard files and then it just a matter of opening Address book and either importing them or you can drag them into the app.
    It's a pretty simple process.

  • How can I screen share another users desktop on the _same_ macbook?

    Hi,
    I'm trying to login multi-user into my own Macbook.
    What I mean is, on my macbook start a session logged in as another user on my own macbook.
    Using JollysfastVNC I can do this, but its terribly slow, like unusable slow. Tried changing the color depth and everything.
    I tried both Mac and VNC authentication and VNC usally gets so slow it freezes, and Mac is very slow and unusable.
    How can I fix this?

  • How can I cope iPhotos from one to another user on the same mac

    How can I copy my iphotos from on user to another on the same mac?

    Depending on how many pictures you wish to share there are different options.
    1) Steps to share your whole iPhoto Library
    A) Share your photos
    Firstly setup a shared folder that the other user(s) will be able to access. This can be done in System Preferences, Sharing, then selecting the checkbox next to 'File Sharing'. You'll then want to select the folder to share and also the users who can access it.
    In your instance, I would suggest sharing the folder where your 'iPhoto Library' file resides, which is most likely going to be in the default 'Pictures' folder. The other user will then be able to access your 'iPhoto Library' in their iPhoto application under their user account and see all contents in your iPhoto library.
    B) Configure the other users iPhoto to access your shared iPhoto Library (or any library of your choice)
    Logout of your account and into the user who requires access to your iPhoto Library. Find the iPhoto application, press and hold the option/alt key and click to open the application. 'What photo library do you want iPhoto to use?' will appear in a window, click 'Choose', navigate to your preferred iPhoto Library and iPhoto will now load your pictures.
    2) Steps to share a few selected pictures
    You will follow the same steps as above in order to setup a shared pictures folder, however in your user account, drag and drop photos out of your iPhoto library into a shared folder which the other user can access.
    Notes:
    The method of sharing your whole iPhoto Library means that both users will be accessing/editing the same library. This means you will be able to see pictures imported/edited by each other. If this is undesired, you can create a copy of your iPhoto library on the 2nd user account instead of both accounts running the same library from a shared folder.

  • How can I restore photos from Time Capsule/Machine w/o getting lots of duplicates?

    Hi All,
    I recently "lost" some photos and tried going into Time Capsule/Machine to restore them.  I went to applications, opened Time Machine, got the "Star Wars" like screen, scrolled to the appropriate date (I thought), clicked on that date, went to my user name, clicked on Pictures and then clicked on iPhoto Library.  It asked me if I wanted to create a copy called iPhoto Library2 and I said yes. 
    Next I clicked on restore and it began restoring my iPhoto Library from that day.  Unfortunately it created copy after copy after copy of each photo, hundreds!!  And it broke down each photo into faces. Again and again and again. Bottom line is that since I must have picked the wrong date my pics weren't there.
    I decided to delete iPhoto Library 2 and there were some 130,000 items to delete.  Then it took about 24 hours to secure empty my trash.
    So my question is how can I avoid this next time?  I really want to get these photos back but am afraid to try it again.
    Thanks in advance for any advice!  They are of my 19 year old niece's visit to Australia so the pressure is on!
    Kindest regards,
    Becky

    You might post this query on the iPhoto forum and perhaps someone there can provide an answer.
    I tried this on my MBP and it seems that you have to restore the entire iPhoto Library.  What I did was put the current library in a separate folder on the desktop and then I restored the library from a prior date.  If you were to do that, you then could extract the desired photos and then delete the restored library.  Then place the current library back to the original location and import the desired photos.
    Not tidy but it seems it will work.
    Ciao.

  • I have reinstalled my OS without time machine (using the disc). I want to restore some pictures in the iPhotos which are already in the time machine i was using previously. How can I restore iPhoto from previous time machine?

    My mac book was incredibly slow. When I went to Mac store, they asked me to reinstall the OS with CD and not with the time machine. I reinstalled the operating system. But when I opened the applications, all those started as fresh applications as usual. I have the backup of all other data in another hard disc. But unfortunately, I forgot to copy the photos before reinstallation. I have those photos in my time machine back up. But when I opened time machine, it started like a fresh (very new) time machine and it started backing up my present OS (the reinstalled one). I cannot open the previous time machine, which is in the same hard drive. I wish to open the previous time machine to get the photos which are backed up previuosly. When opened the time machine disc (manually by clicking the icon), i can see all the thigs which I had previously in my macbook. But unfortunately, i cannot access those through time machine! Can anybody help me please?

  • How can I disable Firefox from automatically opening on system startup on my Mac - unchecking the "open at login" does not work?

    We have Firefox 10.o on our Macbook Pro OS X 10.5.8. I prefer using Firefox as my browser but my husband prefers Safari for now because of a long history of bookmarks and saved information he doesn't have time to re-do. He is tired of Firefox automatically opening when we start up the laptop, and even when we uncheck the "open at login" it still opens at login every time. He is about to uninstall it because of this. How can we disable? It does NOT show up in our account on the Mac OS as an application that starts at login, so we can't disable it there.

    For those of you running Windows, I found this on another site. (Unfortunately, not before getting totally disgusted and switching to chrome.)
    1. click start (or the windows flag button at the bottom left) 2. in the "search programs and files" or the RUN dialog box, enter "msconfig.exe" or "msconfig". 3. That should open the system configuration program. 4. click the "Startup" tab at the top of the opened program. 5. Under the "startup item" column, look for Mozilla firefox. 6. uncheck that one. 7. Click OK or apply. 8. click "exit without restart". 9. you're good to go.

  • How can I restore files from a time machine back-up of my iMac to an EXTERNAL hard drive connected to MacBook Pro. Using Migrat

    I would like to restore files from a time machine back-up of my iMac to an EXTERNAL hard drive connected to MacBook Pro. When I tried using Migration Assistant it only gives me my internal hard drive as an option to restore to. The internal hard drive on my macbook isnt large enough to store the files.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    OS X can only restore data to the drive where Time Machine backed up files from.
    If you want to restore files from the Time Machine backup onto an external drive, your only option is to access to the Time Machine drive manually (open a Finder window and choose your Time Machine drive in the Finder sidebar), navigate through its folders and copy the files you want to the external drive

  • How can I screen share over ethernet?! Also DVD sharing?!

    I contacted the complimentary apple 'support' to no avail. I just got a mac mini with lion 10.7.2. I have a macbook with snow leopard 10.6.8, both computers have just installed most recent updates. My goal is to get these two machines working in conjunction.
    I have enabled screen sharing and it works, but very poorly. I have enabled DVD sharing, and it works poorly, very briefly if at all, before force quitting itself. I asked a gentleman in the apple store what was up with the lag, poor resolution etc. I experience with screen sharing and he said "it's the nature of the beat". He went on to suggest connecting them via Ethernet or another tangible connection. But how?!
    I'm so frustrated I have called 'support' four times and not even progress has been made. Please help

    Yes, that is an option and I appreciate the feedback.  However, I find Messages to be pretty useful for it's main purpose - bridging my iPhone messages with my MacBook - so I am hesitant to go back.
    I tried looking into other options but Skype doesn't allow me to control the other person's screen and screen sharing, if I am understanding it correctly, seems tailored for people on the same network.
    I tried setting up the VNC thing, but when I clicked the other users link it never connects.
    Are there any options for people with different iCloud IDs on different Macs in different cities to connect for screen sharing assistance?

  • I have deleted all my photos from my mac, how can I transfer them from my iphone4 or iPad back to my mac

    Can anyone help? I have by mistake deleted all of my photos on my Mac. I want to transfer the library from my iphone 4 or my ipad back to my Mac.

    There is no syncing process to move synced photos from an iOS device back to a computer.
    If you have only a small amount of photos you can email them to yourself.
    There are third party applications available online, some free and some at cost that will pull pictures off your device and back to the computer if your number of photos is great.
    In the past I have user PhoneView with great success.
