How the **** do you screen share Tiger outside a local network?

I am, for my sins, in Germany trying to work out how I can remote administer my dad's iMac running Tiger 10.4.11 which is all the way across the continent in merry old England. I know there are options under Sharing in System Preferences that you need to select to enable screen sharing in Tiger, but apart from that I don't have the first idea how I would access his machine using Snow Leopard on my MacBook Pro.
Can someone please at least point me in the direction of a good tutorial?

It'll be much the same in 10.6 as 10.5...

If there are Routers on either end you'll need to open the proper prts also.

  • How the **** do you actually email apple to make a complaint

    how the **** do you make a complaint to apple with regards to the fact they can offer free games to children but make it very easy and appealing to children to spend money they cannot and should not be spending

    For more information on the available restrictions, see:

    I think that if you read up on them, you'll see that Apple has indeed addressed this issue and that all you need to do is configure your iPod appropriately.

I even tried stopping and restarting windows installer in "computer management; services, services". Still no luck..... This is the first time that ive struggled downloading Itunes.

  • How do i unistall quicktime if i keep getting the installer note of: the feature you are trying to use on a network resource that is unavailable. i cannot find Quick Time.msi file anywhere. so i cannot uninstall or re install quick time

    the feature you are trying to use on a network resource that is unavailable. i cannot find Quick Time.msi file anywhere. so i cannot uninstall or re install quick time
    any suggestions please??????

    Unfortunately, this sort of trouble has gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center on June 25. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
    Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
    If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
    Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any QuickTime entries and click "Remove".
    Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try installing QuickTime again. Does the install go through properly now?
    (If you do find a clean download site for the correct version of CleanUp, please don't tell me where it is. Without wishing to sound paranoid (although I grant it does sound paranoid), there is a non-zero chance that posting links to download locations for the utility here at Discussions leads to that download location being shut down.)

  • Is it possible to access my TimeCapsule from outside my local network via internet? If so what is the best app  that  can help me?

    is it possible to access my TimeCapsule from outside my local network via internet? If so what is the best app  that  can help me?

    iCloud can do it..
    http://www.apple.com/au/support/icloud/back-to-my-mac/
    You need Lion and latest firmware on the TC..
    Were you hoping to use the ipad/iphone??  That maybe possible but I am not sure how.
    You cannot use windows without opening SMB to some strange port and this is going to mess with security.. you also need a static ip address from your ISP.. most private net users do not have this.
    You can do it via vpn.. you will need to buy a vpn router and bridge the TC to it.
    Just google remote access time capsule.. there are a zillion posts about it.

  • How can I  connect to SQL server database thru local network by using JSP?

    I'm currently doing a project by using JSP..And I need to display record from the SQL Server database in our school's local network. May I know how can I do that? How can I write the code so that I can able to access the SQL Server databsase Throught school's network by using JSP? Please tell me step by step how can I do that. I'm using Tomcat 4.1 as Web Server. And I had J2SE and J2EE installed in my computer.

    first you have to establish a ODBC DSN on your computer,
    that connects to the database...you can do that from your control pannel.
    i assume that the TOMCAT server is residing on your computer....(if the webserver is in other computer then you would have to create a System DSN on the data sources ODBC option in the settings>control pannel of that machine)
    then you can use that DSN name to connect to the data base from the class file....for further assistance on how to create the class that access the tutorials in sun site.

  • How to Save Background job report out put in local / Network Drive?

    Hello Techies,
    How to Save Background job report out put in local / Network Drive.
    Actually we have option to send mail aftr complete but  i need to save in local drive or network drive .

    Hi ,
    Background job runs in application server , and your local /network drive is basically presentation server. So you cant save it in local /network drive from the job itself. But to download files, you can write the files to the application server using DATASET, in the background and then use the transaction CG3Y in the foreground to download the file.

  • When will AR Andriod APP have the 2-sided print option available for a local network duplex enabled printing?

    When will AR Andriod APP have the 2-sided print option available for a local network duplex enabled printing?

    I solved my problem!
    Since I suspected routing or firewall problems inside the LAN, I went in to the router setup and did some in depth snooping. On an advanced menu of the wireless section was a one-line setting and check-box that said "Block Wireless Bridging". According to the manual, this setting "blocks wireless clients from communicating with other wireless clients on the LAN side of the Gateway."
    I unchecked it and restarted the router and now all macs are screen and file sharing.

  • How can I use screen share of my mac mini?  Problems validating

    I recently purchased a mac mini to act as my home media server for audio as my airport express was not playing nicely with my Peachtree DAC.  Anyway, I have set up sharing on the mac mini and can't figure out how to connect from my wife's Macbook, or her iPad.  (I use a PC, so would welcome advice if available on how to connect across platforms as well.)  My goal is to set up the mac mini without a monitor or keyboard connected to it and have it sit with our main stereo. 
    I am able to connect to the mac mini via my wife's macbook IF I ask for permission and I grant it from the mac mini.  However, I am unable to connect no matter what I try if I try to log in as a registered user.  I have tried to add her as a user to the mac mini, I have tried to log in as a guest, and I have tried to log in with a password but no matter what I try, I get an authentication error when I try to log in as an authorized user.  For more clarity, here is what I have tried:
    1.  Added authorized users on the mac mini.  I created a user name for "jeff", "maureen", and "lastname_maureen" on the mac mini and provided a password for each user.  "jeff" and "maureen" are just created on the mac mini, and "lastname_maureen" is the user name of my wife's computer.  I confirmed the passwords, and still am unable to connect.  I have allowed any user on the network to access screen share, and no matter what I do I get an authentication error.  Again, if I attempt to log in from my wife's computer by asking permission, it works fine but I can't figure out how to set up an account to login.  Please help.  Thanks!

  • How the **** do you reset the security questions? And how do you add a backed up library to a new computer?

    So I have a couple issues and I am extremely frustrated, I'm about to smash all of my apple products.
    First issue is how do you reset the security questions? Can't seem to find the "forgot answer" of anything like that.
    Second is my old comp crashed so I backed up my iTunes to an external HD, got the file on the new computer, installed iTunes, got alot of my old music from iCloud, but didn't get all my music so I went to add a folder like the support thing I found said, but there's only an add file option, do I have to add each song?
    Is there a way to get the songs from my iPhone to the iTunes library? It has all of my music on it as well
    Thanks
    Mike

    For the security questions......
    On your computer or safari on your iOS device navigate to:
              For Canada - https://appleid.apple.com/ca.
              For United States - https://appleid.apple.com/us/.
    Click the "Manage your Apple ID" button, and sign in to your iCloud account.  Once in, on the left side select "Password and Security", and this will populate our options on the right side.  You should see an option to reset your security questions. 
    Also see this article about your "rescue email address" - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312. 
    If for any reason you can not reset these security questions, or get an error, then you may need to contact Apple directly - http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57.   Explain the issue, and they can get your to a "Account Security" agent, who will be able to verify your identity, and assist in resetting the security questions.
    For iTunes....

  • How can I get the host adresses of all computers in a local network

    I want to learn that how can I do this with java?
    I have a solution as iterating and checking with InetAdress.getHost("iteratedhost"), if no exception such host is reachable.
    But I search for better solutions

    MulticastSocket is a good option as I shortly
    evaluated.
    ThanksThis does not allow you to find all the IP address of
    all computers on a network. It will enable you to
    send information to any computer that is a member of
    a particular IP Multicast Group.He doesn't seem to really need to know all the IP addresses. He just seems to want to "find" a server. Looks like MulticastSocket is kinda for that purpose, broadcasting a message out for someone to respond to. That response could be: "I'm the server you want - my IP address is x.y.z.a". Then he would use a normal Socket to bind to that guy. Maybe it's a good solution, maybe not. Just giving him a possible route. MulticastSocket must be good for something.

  • How can I remotely connect to VM outside of Internal Network without connecting to Host Machine?

    I am running Windows 7 in a VM: The VM was setup using Hyper-V within Windows Server 2012 R2. First, I configured the
    Linksys router Port Forwarding for TCP 3389 and 3390. To both IP addresses. I also created Firewall Inbound Rules for Port 3389 and 3390.
    To connect within Network, I simply enter the VM IP address or Computer Name, username and password and the connection is successful. I am also able to connect to the Host Machine out of my local Network by using the
    Public IP address.
    The Problem:
    When I attempt to access the VM, lets say at a Caribou or the Library, or any other outside Network, I am landing into the Host Machine instead of the VM.
    For example:
    To log into the VM outside, I used the same Public IP address, the username and password to the VM but I am landing in the Host machine with an error message that the user is invalid.
    I have also tried the following: Computer Name:3389 but not successful.
    How do I access the VM so that the connection is not going to the Host?

    What I have done in the past for this is to configure different ports on the router.  Generally your router will have a single public IP address. Let's just call it 1.1.1.1. Then in my router I configure ports to be forwarded.  Let's assume your
    Hyper-V host is 192.168.2.100 and your VM is 192.168.2.101.  On the router I configure some port, for example 43100 to be forwarded to 192.168.2.100:3389 for the host.  For the VM, port 43101 is forwarded to 192.168.2.101:3389.
    Then when I access from the public internet, I connect to 1.1.1.1:43100 for the host or 1.1.1.1:43101 for the VM.
