How do you run a program on another computer over the network

Would like to send and receive my aol email and run other applications from my other G4 that I don't have installed in my main computer through the in house network- without opening the application on the main computer. In other words, running the 2nd computer from the main computer.
Does that make any sense?
Hope so, j

Hi Joseph, makes perfect sense!
You need to get Chicken of the VNC on yours...
http://sourceforge.net/projects/cotvnc/
Then on the other G4>System Preferences>Sharing, enable these Services...
Personal File Sharing
Remote Login
Personal Web Sharing
Apple Remote Desktop
Remote Apple Events
You should be able to have the other G4's screen show up on yours and run the other one.

How do you receive a call on your computer with the new OS X?

How do you receive a call on your computer with the new OS X?

The following quotation is from http://www.apple.com/ios/whats-new/continuity/
The link shows a picture of the Notification. Below it says there is "nothing to set up" but I believe that you need to have FaceTime activated (signed in) on both devices as there is a setting on iPhone/iPad in Settings > FaceTime where you turn "iPhone Cellular Calls" on/off.
Sometimes when your iPhone rings, it’s not where you are. Maybe it’s charging in another room. Or it’s buried in your backpack. But your Mac or iPad is sitting right there. Now you can make and receive phone calls on those devices as long as your iPhone running iOS 8 is on the same Wi-Fi network. Incoming calls show the caller’s name, number, and profile picture. Just click or swipe the notification to answer, ignore, or respond with a quick message. And making a phone call from your iPad or Mac is just as easy. Simply tap or click a phone number in Contacts, Calendar, or Safari. It all works with your existing iPhone number, so there’s nothing to set up.

Is there a way to send PP renders to another computer on the network?

Is there a way I can send renders out of Premiere Pro CS6 to another computer on the network that has Adobe Media Encoder CS6 installed?

You'd have to have PP installed on the other computer as well, and copy all the media and other assets over to that computer, along with the PP project file, and then start PP on that second computer and send to AME from there.
In short, no.

How do I run a program after login, but before the desktop?

How would I run a program right after the initial login using gnome/JDE?
With CDE I could edit the ~/.dtprofile to get the desired effect, but dtprofile is a CDE configuration file.

There used to be sn automator action that might have gotten the job done. It was on http://automatorworld.com/ but I can't seem to find it now.
I haven't test this under Lion but there is a system preference pane called "Do Domething When" that should get the jeb done. http://www.azarhi.com/Projects/DSW/
I have taken the opposite approach. My iTunes library and I have the same problem if it has not been mounted when iTunes launches. I created an Automator app that mounts the music then launches iTunes. Try mounting the drive the launch Automator to create the following workflow.
1. Connect to server and select the external drive.
2. Us the Launch Application step to launch iTunes.
Unmount the external drive and test the workflow. If it works save the workflow as an app and use that to launch iTunes.

Windows 7 fails when authenticating to another computer on the network

In Windows 7 (home premium, 64 bit), I am attached to a VPN (Using OpenVPN). Then, whenever I try to either:
- Use explorer to look at the file system of another computer
- Use the remote desktop connection on another computer
- Map a folder on another computer as a network drive
... in all of these cases, I get the authentication dialog and once I send my username and password, it crashes. For example, when I use explorer, it hangs, and then comes back with the message: "Explorer has stopped working"
I have elsewhere seen a proposed solution for similar symptoms, of deleting this key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\SQMClient\Windows\DisabledSessions\MachineThrottling
However, this is not applicable in my case, as the key is not present.
I don't think that this can be a problem with the network, because:
a) this works fine from a different computer, running XP,
b) I have in fact seen this working on this computer, but just once, straight after a system restore, and I can't replicate the success by doing another system restore.
c) If it were a problem with the network, you would expect Windows to fail gracefully.
Additionally:
- Disabling the firewall doesn't help.
- Disabling the antivirus software (AVG) doesn't help.
- Doing a clean boot doesn't help.
I'd be grateful for any suggestions.

Can't mount another computer on the network, or print, but can see all

When I attempt to connect to another computer on the ethernet network in the office, I can see lots of other computers on the network but I can't quite get there. This is only a recent problem that began a week or so ago and there were no problems earlier.
I can make it through Network >> Local >> Select the computer I wish to connect to >> Enter the password >> Select the volumes I wish to mount >> but then that's it, I get the spinning beach ball and nothing more happens. I don't understand how I can be seeing the volume and yet unable to mount it.
However, at the same time I can also see the printers on the network and am unable to print to them which indicates that there may be a related problem. No-one else on the network is having any issues connecting to other computers or printers.

I have the same problem - printers, volumes, computers - I have to relaunch the finder as soon as try to connect as a guest or registered user

How do you Get your mail on another computer

I am traveling abroad. How do I get my mail from my mac account on another computer?

Doesn't .mac have a web mail interface? Go through Safari to get it, then. Otherwise, you are going to have to write down all the Mail settings for the .mac account and configure a mail account on the other computer's Mail program

HT1296 How do you sync your iPod to another computer without deleting all the data?

I recently got a new MacBook Air and I found out that if I sync my iPod touch with my new computer instead of my old one all my data will be deleted.
How do I sync my iPod without deleting all my information?

You can't, so you'll need to get all your data, apps and content to the new computer before you allow the sync. See this support article:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848
You can also download most of your content (the notable exceptions being movies, some of which can be redownloaded if you're in the US, and audiobooks) again from the iTunes Store:

How do you move itunes to a new computer, keeping the songs in the library?

I have a laptop now and would like to move the itunes from my home computer to my laptop. Is there a way to move it and keep my purchased songs in the library?

Probably the most straightforward way to get iTunes onto your second computer is to network it with the first one and copy your iTunes folder across. Start by consolidating your library. When you consolidate, any songs in the iTunes Library that are not in the iTunes Music Folder are copied to the Music Folder and the Library is updated to point to those new files. Files already in the iTunes Music Folder have no changes made to them: Copying all your iTunes files to one location - Windows
Copying the whole folder brings with it the iTunes Music folder and also the iTunes Library (iTunes Library.itl in Windows) database file which holds all the information about your songs (Playlists, Ratings, Play Counts, Last Played, Date Added, etc). You'll get more information including the Folder/File structure in this article: What are the iTunes library files?
When you copy the iTunes folder make sure you put it into the default location on the new computer. On a PC this is \Documents and Settings\Username\My Documents\My Music\ (or C:\Username\Music\ in Vista). You should also use the same version of iTunes on both computers.
You can also use this method with an external hard drive, you drag the folder from the first computer to the external drive and then from the drive to the second computer.
If you have and iPod, some iPods can be used as an external drive and you can use them to move your iTunes (this option isn't available with the iPod Touch): How to use your iPod to move your music to a new computer
If you have any iTunes purchases in your library don't forget that you'll need to authorise your new computer to play them. Also if you are disposing of the old one remember to deauthorise it so you don't use up one of your allowances: About iTunes Music Store Authorisation and Deauthorisation

G4 freezes while connecting to another Mac over the network

This is a mirror-drive, Dual 1GHz PowerPC G4, 1.25 GB RAM. It was recently repurposed as a hand-me-down when we upgraded. We cleaned it up and reinstalled everything. It connects to the internet just fine. Other computers can find it on the network and connect to it just fine. When I try to connect from this G4 to any other Mac on the network, I can find the other computers and I get the login popup, but when I put in the password and click OK, I get the color-wheel that never goes away. I have to power it off and try again.
This computer has been a work-horse for several years and has been on our network with no problems. This has just popped up since we moved it to a different desk.
One side note, we did upgrade our network recently, but none of the other Macs (including 2 other G4's) are having this problem.
thoughts? suggestions?
thanks.

What version of the Mac OS is the MDD running?
This has just popped up since we moved it to a different desk.
If that involved unplugging the computer from the wall, then a dead or weak PRAM battery may have let the computer lose something that it needs for the task. How old is the battery and how much time has the G4 spent off wall power in the last few years? If your firm requires unplugging computers at night (some do now in an effort to be more "green"), then the battery is surely dead by now.

Can't connect to another computer on the network with 'good' password

Hi;
Out of the blue my wife can no longer connect to my machine on our local network using her normal password. She gets the error 'Sorry, the password you entered is incorrect. Please re-enter it' at the login box. In testing her password it seems fine for all else - can log into her machine fine, can log into other computers on our network OK, do administrator things, etc.....just no long into mine.
I can log into my machine from hers using my account info, so the connection is fine it seems. It just won't accept her password for this single action.
Have repaired permissions on both machines, restarted several times, etc. all to no avail. Went to look into her keychain to see if something was amiss there but did not really see anything that pointed to this particular interaction (perhaps it is stored elsewhere?)
Nothing out of the ordinary happened to her nor my machine that I can think of. Her machine is still on 10.3.9 and I'm on 10.4.7.
Scratching my head on this one, so any help much apprecated.
~Roger

After considerable testing I've determined that the problem is in the sharing settings on my computer and not the password on the other computer. I've not solved the issue but clarified the questions I have and posted under the 'networking and sharing' discussion in hopes of some help.
