How to connect to an other computer through the internet

Please who can help me with Desktop Remote control and connecting through the internet. I know a lot is written about it, but it is still confusing.
So try to explain my situation:
I have an MacBook pro with Desktop Remote Control 3
The other computer:
Apple PowerBook which is connected through and Thomson Speedtouch (wireless 716)
External IP address xx.xx.xx.xx
Internal IP address 192.168.1.66
No firewalls
My questions:
How do I check if my Thomson Speedtouch the ports 5900 and 32?? are open?
How can I open the ports on the router? Do I have to open the port on the router?
Then on the MacBook Pro, I start up ARD3
How do I scan for the computer on Internet? Do I use the external IP address?
How can I then connect to the Apple PowerBook? I cannot fill in the second internal IP address or do I?
I hope someone can help me.
If more info is needed, please ask me.
Thank you....
Hans

Neil thank you for your answer.
I opened Network Utility. Went to the last Tab "Port Scan"
I typed in: external IP address (i got this through the Widget SysStat which shows external IP)
Than I gave up scan between the ports 5890 - 5910 to check if those ports are open or not. I had to way for a moment, and then the result was: "Port Scan has completed....."
Ok, what do I know know? The ports are open or not?
So please can someone help me with the following:
1) What should the result show me from Network utility?
2) Opening the port, this has to be done on the Router or is it something the Internet Service Provider needs to do?
3) I still have the question: how can I open the port, so with what application.
4) What are the exact ports which needs to be open?
5) About bridging in the router, does that have a special name. I didn't see in the router configuration program an option like that? When searching --> this is configured: A. Router-modem (NAT/PAT) - is there something special with NAT/PAT?
Hope someone can help me with a few of my questions.
Thanks

How to connect printer to virtual computer

How to connect a hp830 printer to a VC running WXP? The same printer works fine on a physical PC, but when I follow directions in the install wizard to "add new printer" within the VC, it comes back "driver not installed" and fails.

The only way to print from a remote source is to save the files locally and print them from there. There are some commercial class printers that will support remote printing, but I don't know the exact models. An alternative way of doing this would be to get a printer that supports ePrint. With ePrint you can print from any source that can send an email, from anywhere in the world. All you have to do is make sure the printer is on and has an active internet connection. Hope this helps.

How can I remotely access my computer from a different location on Apple Remote Desktop?

I downloaded Apple Remote Desktop and am trying to access our computer at our church that is in the auditorium and work on slides for ProPresenter from my office which is on a different network. The Mac Pro, which is in the auditorium, is connected to a Netgear wireless router. I would also want to be able to have access to observe and control the screen on the Mac Pro whether I am in my office or at my house. I have tried everything from going to portforward.com, followed those instructions, did port forwarding, used ipchicken.com to get my external IP and made sure that the Mac Pro had a static internal IP address and made sure the computer had access for remote management. Any help to resolve this issue would be greatly appreciated! Works fine when it is on the same wireless network, but I need access being on a different wireless network. Thanks!

Hi austinmac14,
So the steps listed bellow assume some things. They assume that the Airport Extreme Router your configuring is connected directly to the internet connection. And that the Airport Extreme is the only router between your computers and the internet.
That means we're talking about say a DSL modem plugged directly into the Airport Extreme, or a cable modem. in ether case, this assumes that said modem, is not acting as an internet router.
If your modem has multiple ethernet ports on it, or has a little antenna sticking out of it, then your modem is probable also a router, and these steps listed bellow will probable not work.
Also these steps are so one person, can connect to one computer at your work.
Open Airport Utility:
go to the dock
Click on the finder
go to the menu bar
Click on the "Go" menu
Chose "Utilities" from the "Go" Menu
double Click on "AirPort Utility"
Access the Base Station:
Double Click on your Airport Extreme BaseStation that is your internet connection router.
a new window should pop up with your Airport Base Station as the Window Name
Configure Static Address for the computer you want to connect to via ARD:
Click on the internet Icon from the toolbar
Click on the "DHCP" tab
For "DHCP Reservations:" Click on the "+" button
For the "Description" put "ARD"
For "Reserve Address by:" set "DHCP Client ID"
Click the "Continue" button
For "DHCP Client ID:" set "ARD"
write down the number in "IPv4" address field
Click the "Done" Button
Configure routing to ARD computer:
Click on the "Advanced" icon from the tool bar.
Click on the "Port Mapping" tab
Click on the "+" button
for "Service:" Chose "Apple Remote Desktop"
for "Private IP Address:" copy the exact IP address you wrote down in step "3. 8)"
Click the "Continue" button
Click the "Done" button
Click the "+" button
For the pulldown menu "Service:" Chose "Remote Apple Events"
for "Private IP Address:" copy the exact IP address you wrote down in step "3. 8."
Click the "Continue" button
Click the "Done" button
Click the "+" button
For the pulldown menu "Service:" Chose "Remote Login - SSH"
for "Private IP Address:" copy the exact IP address you wrote down in step "3. 8."
Click the "Continue" button
Click the "Done" button
Click the "Update" button.
wait for the Airport Extreme to update, and for your computer to reconnect to the airport extreme. (make sure you can load and browse websites.)
Configure the ARD computer to use the correct IP address:
Go to the computer you want to be able to remotely connect to
On that computer, Go to the menu bar
Chose the "Apple" menu bar
Chose "System Preferences…"
Click on the "Show All" button
Click on the "Network" icon
For the active network connection, (the connection on the left side with the green dot), click on it
Clock on the "Advanced…" button
Click on the "TCP/IP" tab
for the "DHCP Cient ID: field put "ARD".
Click the "OK" button
Click the "Apply" buttonNOTE: Under "Status" you should see "(connection name) is connected to (airport base station name) and has the IP address (IP address)." the "(IP address)" address displayed should match the IP address you wrote down in step "3. 8."
Find out what your public internet IP address is.
On the computer you wish to connect to over the internet, gotohttp://whatismyipaddress.com/
when the web page loads, you should see "IP Information:" fallow by a number like 192.168.0.1, write down what ever number it is.
At this point you should be able to connect to the computer remotely
connect to the internet from another location.
open Apple Remote Desktop
go to the file menu
chose connect to computer using ip address
set the address to the address to the IP address you wrote down for step 6. 2.
use the same password as you used to connect to the computer at work using ARD.
So here the catch. If your router gets reset... well then your going to have to configure it again. Also all the same rules you have to connect to the computer at work, also apply to connecting to the computer from over the local network. That means your computer need to be on or sleeping. And if it's sleeping it need to be configure to wake for network access.
Also some network connections change. When it comes to internet connections, some connections are static IP, while other connections are DHCP. If your connection is static... great! if it's DHCP, your address may change. If it dose.. well then your ability to connect will break. And then you'd have to do step 6 & 7 again.
Of corse there are ways around this. But that's kind of another conversation.
Some internet locations may block your ability to connect to your computer at work. This is very common at schools, and companies. Basically any place that tries to control your ability to browse the internet, may block remote access to computers; because a remote computer would completely by pass their web filter.
ALSO there is an easier option. As far as setup. There are programs designed to make remotely accessing your mac as easy as possible. For instance there is LogMeIn or Slack. With both of these programs, it's simple. make sure your computer is always on. Then install the software. Create an account with the service. And then you can connect to the computer almost any where by going to their website.
This option requires no router configuration. It handles DHCP. It's designed to work in as many locations as possible.

"Please connect iPhone to a computer running a 32-bit version of Windows XP

Anyone! Please, anyone! I just got an iPhone and plugged it in to my existing iTunes and it required for me to update to a new version of iTunes in which I did, which is now 7.4.3.1. When I plug the iPhone in, an error message displays and it says "Please connect iPhone to a conputer running a 32-bit version of Windows XP (SP2) or Windows Vista. I have a Windows Vista and re-checked compatability it everything is fine. I've even re-installed iTunes,and restarted my computer but no success! I still keep getting the same error message. Oh, by the way, I've tried all USB ports as well. =(

It isn't compatible with the 64 bit version of vista. If you search the threads you might find some workarounds that might work. I believe the installer doesn't put the files in the correct directory.
Good luck...

Cannot connect remotely to home computer

I would appreciate some troubleshooting help, with regard to my inability to connect to my home computer from my iBook, which is in a remote location.
At home, I have an iMac connected to DSL, using a Belkin router. I have opened up port 548 on the router, which is supposed to allow access to my files from outside the home network. I have also turned on file sharing in system prefs.
At work, I'm connected to the Internet via a Windows-based network (but using an iBook). I go to Connect to Server under the Go menu, type in the afp address of my home iMac that was indicated under the home machine's sharing prefs., but then nothing happens. Well actually, I get a message that the server can't be found.
I know my home computer is on (I made sure it wouldn't sleep), and I opened up the port that is for afp, so what could be the problem?
Thanks for your help.

Could be something with that port. Have you tried Remote Login through shh to see if that worked?
If you allow remote login, you can use SSH (Secure Shell) to log in to your computer from another location.
You can't use Telnet to log in to the computer.
Open System Preferences and click Sharing.
Click Services and select the Remote Login checkbox. Selecting Remote Login also also enables the secure FTP (sftp) service.
Now you can use an SSH client to log in from another computer.
For example, if your user name is steve and your computer's IP address is 10.1.2.33, you can open Terminal on another Mac OS X computer and type:
ssh -l steve 10.1.2.33
Type "man ssh" at a Terminal shell prompt for more information.
See this Apple page for more:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.4/en/mh294.html
For Personal File Sharing do this:
1. Be sure you are already connected to the Internet.
2. Choose Connect to Server from the Go menu.
3. In the Address field, type either the IP address or the DNS name of the computer to which you wish to connect (Note 4).
4. Click Connect.
See this Apple Page for more.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107369
Also you may have a OSX firewall on or 3rd party firewall that is blocking this port.
Personal File Sharing uses 548, and 247 for it's ports.

Hello -
You can do the following...(I'm not sure whether it will satisfy your requirement or I cannot understand all of your points here)
1. Run Admin Centre from your local and create a Dir Service by selecting Use Existing Directory Service ONLY
2. Unselect all other options and provide your remote engine / Dir service details in the Directory provider.Then finish Dir creation.
3. Start BPM Web Application and Launch Process Administrator.
4. Login - then you can see the remote engine on your local PBM Process Administrator.
5. Publish your BPM Process to remote BPM Engine.
BR,
Justin.

Some of the information below has subsequently appeared in a document by turingtest2: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was planned with you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchases which can be transferred to a computer.

Nokia 1661 - How to connect it to a computer?

I'm feeling quite stupid. How does one connect the Nokia 1661 to a computer? What type of data cable is required? There is a port between the power jack and headphone jack, but it is smaller than a mini USB connector. The user manual does not specify what that port is.
Thanks for the help.

Absolutely. It is completely closed to the outside world.
If there was a WAP browser you could put the images online somewhere and point it to them, but even that option isn't there. Nor does the 1661 support user-created ringtones other than those created with the built-in ringtone editor.
This is a BUDGET phone, folks. If it got any cheaper SIM-free you'd be finding the things in packets of cereal.

How to delete/remote printer per computer?

Hi,
We are having a problem.
Situation : We have a Mac server on 10.6.8 tight to AD. We have about 1000 Mac clients connected to it. We push printers to them via that server (bonjour, IP and Windows).
Problem : when we want to remove/delete a printer from the list of available printers for a specific group, that won't work. It's deleted on the server, it's not there anymore, but the users still has it. I made lots of research on that, but the community is so small that I can't find an answer. I spent lots of hours already on trying to find a solution by myself by tweaking Cups and see with a script how I'll manage that.
Question : why when we delete a printersfrom the server that action is not sent to the users. To me, it's a bug and a good one.
The only solution right now for us when a printer needs to be remove is to go in each and every single computers. Which is not acceptable and that's the reason why we bought a Mac Server; to have a much as we can automated and I can tell you guys that Apple left the IT admin behind on many points. Many of the little feature that should work like : "Allow user to modify the printer list".. not working..
Thanks for your help!

Open System Preferences > Print & Scan > Print
Select the printer on the left then click - (minus)
