How to avoid "share screen request" in "back to my mac"

I tried to use back to my mac screen sharing and it waits for a response to  a "share screen request" on the target mac. Is there a way to avoid this? I can't see the value of trying to remotely operate the target mac if someone needs to be there to respond to the "share screen request".

I see that. The problem is that the log in choice only lets me share the screen of my admin account. I want to share the screen of a standard account which is where I do all my work. So I connect to the standard account and then when I go to share the screen I get the "share screen request"
I just tried to log out of the admin account and into the standard remotely and that worked. Strange way to do it but as long as it works I'm fine with it.
Thanks for the response, it did solve my question because  it helped me figure out how to do it.

  • Deleted "On My Mac" calendars trying to share to iPad. Have a good copy still on iPhone4s. How do I get the phone calendars back on my Mac?

    Accidently deleted "On My Mac" calendars trying to share to a new iPad. I still have a a full set of calendars on my iPhone4s. How do I get the phone calendars back onto my Mac?
    Not knowing how to move theiPhone calendars I tried this.....
    I have tried importing a .icbu file of each calendar exported just before the deletion.  Every time I import a backup, it restores fine initially with all my old events, but as soon as it syncs with iCloud it empties all the events prior to my deletion of the "On My Mac" set of caledars.

    I had walked away from the computer and found another mouse hanging out on my wife's computer, I was able to plug it in and got the blue tooth set back up. Thanks for your responding to this.

    Please check the value of the variable sy-binpt, I believe the value of the variable sy-binpt will be set to 'X'  if the program is called from a bath input, hope this helps.

  • How do I share screens via Thunderbolt

    I have a MBP 15 inch 2012. I also have my iMac 21. I would like to use Thunderbolt as a cable connection to manage my MBP in Clamshell while connected to the iMac. That would mean Screen sharing, Application use, etc.
    I know I can do it with Remote Desktop over network, but I would prefer to do it as a cable to cable connection without using Ethernet.
    Any suggestions?

    How do I share screens on the Android free version
    Hello
    Unfortunately that's not possible. Screen sharing can't be done between tablets/smartphones or between a tablet/smartphone and a computer. If a computer initiates screen sharing the screen can be shared with a tablet/smartphone.
    TIME ZONE - US EASTERN. LOCATION - PHILADELPHIA, PA, USA.
    I recommend that you always run the latest Skype version: Windows & Mac

  • How do I share files from Windows Vista to a Mac with Lion OSX?

    How do I share files from Windows Vista to a Mac with Lion OSX?  I'm having SO much trouble with this!  Any help would be appreciated!!!

    In a finder window, under 'shared' you should be able to see the windows computer name, click on it and connect to it. I am assuming here you have sharing turned on and permissions granted on the windows computer.
    Will add a note though, I have frequently accessed files from a PC on the LAN using XP, not vista.

  • How do you share screen with your buddies?

    So I wanted to do something with my friends by screen sharing. We both have Mac and Messages. My friends said that we could use messages to share screen. When we try that, we couldn't. We can't select the "Share my Screen with  ......" or "Ask to share ..... Screen" We both are using Macs.Why can't we share screen.

    Have you enabled System Preferences -> Sharing -> Screen Sharing?
    If that doesn't get iMessages to allow you to screen share, you could try getting a free AOL Instant Messenger (AIM) account and set that up inside iMessage.  I know the AIM servers will pass screen sharing requests.
    If you cannot get this working, you could try an alternative such as TeamViewer.com (or at least until you figure out Screen Sharing via iMessages).

  • Screen Sharing using Back to my Mac

    I'm trying to use screen sharing for the first time between my 27" mid 2010 iMac and 15" MacBook Pro Retina late 2013 using both OSX 10.9.4 on a local network using Back to my Mac feature.  I enabled screen sharing and made sure Remote Management is disabled and also on firewall the screen sharing has allow incoming connections enabled.  I also have my Back to my Mac checked on my iCloud settings.
    And so I opened Finder window on both computers and on the sidebars from each of the computers it showed the shared devices.  So from my Macbook or iMac, I click on the device and then click on the share screen button and a menu popup asking me how i want to connect either as a registered user or using an Apple ID.  I selected using and apple ID and it automatically provide a drop down showing my apple id and I click connect but all I get is an error message saying "Authentication failed to iMac" or vice versa.
    What am I doing wrong?  Is there any other option for me to do screen sharing without using a third party app?  Please advise.  Any help or suggestions will be greatly appreciated.  Thank you.

    Thanks for your input. At home, I use a Time Capsule, with the absolute latest firmware, so it should be suitable.
    However, I might have problems with the setup? If I turn off and on Back to my Mac under iCloud settings, sometimes I get a message that I should enable NAT/UnPP. Checking the setup of the Time Capsule, the router is in Bridge mode (NAT off). If I try turning on NAT, I get an error in Airport Utility about double NAT.
    Any advice on this?

  • How can i fix Connection issues with back to my mac since yosemite upgrade.

    Ok I have been having nothing but problems with back to my mac since the upgrade. both machines are using yosemite and I have even reinstalled yosemite on both still having connection issues. anyone else know how I can fix this? I get one of 2 error messages one that says there is a problem connecting and i should make sure screen sharing is active and then another that says the server does not exist. So far to get it working it involves restarting back to my mac or both macs. This is not a good fix since once I disconnect and try to reconnect a few hours later it does it all over again. I am currently in France and needless to say my parents are starting to get really annoyed with constantly having to do things on there end so I can remote into my iMac.Before the yosemite upgrade I maybe had to do this once or twice.

    What I have done is open Disk Utility, Repair Permissions, and do that more than once if it returns a lot of errors in the permissions.  Then Restart the Mac.
    Also, go to System Preferences > Spotlight and try turning off a couple settings such as search suggestions...these things are taking a lot of resources now.

  • Screen sharing via Back to my Mac

    I'm away from home for work.
    I have my iMac at home, connected to my internet connection which I know is working.  It is on the DMZ on my network so there are typically no issues with blocked ports and the firewall is turned off.
    With me I have my Macbook Pro. Both machines are on 10.10.2
    When I sign into BtmM on both machines the iMac shows up in finder on the MBP, however Finder says not connected and when i click share screen I get connection failed.
    What can I do to troubleshoot this to try and find what part of the chain the issue lies in? I won't be home for another few weeks, but should be able to make changes remotely (the iMac is on, I'm using it to chat to my partner daily and managed to connect remotely via Team Viewer tonight)
    TIA

  • Screen Sharing with Back to my Mac

    This little detail is  different under 10.7 than 10.6, it has taken me some hours of frustration to sort out by trial and error. I haven't seen it documented anywhere.
    When a Back to my Mac user connects  to another Mac to share the screen, if the userid used for the sharing connection is the same as the active user on the shared system, then sharing starts immediately upon successful authentication. If the userid used for the sharing connection is different than the active user, then the active user must give permission for screen sharing to start.
    One of the consequences is that a sharing only user ID can only be used to start unattended access if the unattended machine is at the login screen.
    This is in contrast to 10.6, where any userid can start  screen sharing without permission of the active user.

    Editing original post:
    I'm trying to access my home Mac Mini from outside the home using a Macbook. I'm trying to use Leopard's screen sharing using .Mac and no luck, I can't see my Mac Mini outside my network.
    At home, I've got the Mac Mini:
    (1) running the latest Leopard
    (2) connected to .Mac with Back to My Mac running
    (3) File Sharing, Web Sharing, Remote Login, and Remote Management all on
    (4) Time Capsule with the latest f/w updates running PPPoE to a DSL modem
    At work, I've got the Macbook running:
    (1) running the latest Leopard
    (2) connected to .Mac with Back to My Mac running
    (3) File Sharing, Web Sharing, Remote Login, and Remote Management all on
    When I'm at home, I can screen share between Macs no problem. However, at work, I can't see my home Mac Mini. I know that it is possible to get through my company firewall because I can get my Slingbox to work at the office.
    Suggestions where to start? I'm kinda stuck.

  • How do I find and then use back to my mac with ios5

    I wish to be able to do unattended screen sharing over the internet (remote, not local network). I can't seem to see my remote computer on the finder as a shared device. Both computers (Macs) have correct settings in sys pref with screen sharing on and all users set. Is this also what is known as back to my mac, and if not, what is it. I am on Lion on both computers, using IOS 5.
