Be sure to select the Mac OS X 10.7.x drivers by operating system along wiht your language.
Note, if it does not work, you may need to install this update before, or after for it to work:

Trying to connect Macbook Pro and IMac...suggestions?

Trying to connect Macbook Pro and IMac with Apple Remote desktop or a cable. They do share a wifi router.
Thanks much!

not sure if you found an answer to this. I just got a mb pro and want it to connect to my imac (late 2009). I set up sharing on hte imac, file sharing and dvd/cd sharing. from the mbpro i simply went to finder>go>connect to server. I entered the name as on my imac (xxx.local) and immediately connected. This was a massive help to me as I had some software (aperture, office for mac) that were on drive and the new mbpro doesn't have a disk drive. through sharing I could access the disc drive remotely via my mbpro and load the software that way. worked beautifully on my wifi (which is apple airport extreme).
Hope this helps.

Trying to connect iMac to new Macbook Pro

Hi,
I just got a new MBP and am trying to network it with my intel iMac (late 2007). I can only connect as a guest. I try to connect as an administrator and am asked for a password. I enter my password and it says it is not correct. I have only assigned one password on my mac and assumed it would be the same one for the network, apparantly not. I am not sure what to do. I have enabled home sharing in itunes and that works. I tried using the generic password for the netgear router but that is not it either. Any thoughts?

Screen sharing setup in 10.5, 10.6 are described by the links by operating system. 10.7 is fairly similar to 10.6.
And if both Macs have Firewire, you can setup a Firewire over IP network for fast communication between machines. Note if you have two different Firewire ports a 6 pin to 9 pin Firewire cable does exist. There are no Firewire to USB cables.

Troubleshooting trying to connect iMac 2009

Hey, I've got an iMac 2009 that I bought in France and I installed on it the latest update of Lion (10.7.3). I recently moved into the USA and now, my Mac won't connect to the network. I tried both WiFi + Ethernet but it only stays like 10 minutes to 1 hour connected and then the connection doesn't work anymore and then I need to switch my router on and off to have my connection back. I installed all the Software Update that I can on it but I still have that problem and so I need to restart my router like 10 times a day. Do you have a solution for me ?
Thank you, Sebastien

HI,
my experience is as follows:
1. You have to setup a home folder for network/mobile users with Server.app
2. Create a group for network users with the workgroupmanagement.app from serveradmin tools
3. Create users with correct settings under "preferences" in workgroupmanagement.app, especially "rules"
4. Put the users in the group
4. Set the appropriate permissions to the home folder and share it over the network with server.app
After playing around I could login from a MacBook Pro and synchronize the users library and complete home folder. After testing and restarting the machines (Lion Server is on a Mac Mini) I could relogin with the network/mobile user.
My problem actually is, that I could not login from any other Mac. Everytime the system told me, that there is a fault with login.
Before I want to login with the network/moblle user on another MacBook i logout the user form the MacBook Pro.
No luck :-(
I test it with other users with same settings.
No luck :-(
I integrate the MacBooks in the Computer settings in the workgroupmanagement.app.
No luck :-(
I hope this thread give answers the next days, because I need a working synchronize and account management solution for different users and machines :-)

Trying to connect IMac to Lion server (network account)

Hello,
     I have been trying to get this to work for a few weeks now. I have 2 Imacs and a Macbook, i am trying to login to a network account. I did the step by step to set up my server. I can screen share and see all the shared folders. I have a network user in the work group, and when i go to users on my macbook, and say join the server, i get host not found, but the server is active.
     My network is a DSL modem ( in bridge mode), then to a time capsule, that is hard wired to my server and one Imac, everthing else is wireless. My time capsule hands out the Ip's, and a DNS server is running on my lion server.
     Am I having a DNS problem, I am not sure what DNS has to go where starting with the time capsule. Should i have my time capsule just server one IP to my lion server and have the server hand out the other IP's over DHCP?
     My goal is to have network user account on my server, and no matter what computer you use, you can get the same information. Then set up mobile account for when my macbook is not on the network.
     I setup profile manager, and tried to push my settings to my account, but it also fails every time.
     I tried to follow apple's doc's on this but I have luck with some things, and now with others.
    I am running lion server on a mac mini server.
Thank you,
     Justin

Can't help you there, I'm afraid, and I don't do development since many years back so I'm pretty useless in that area ;-)
However, since the Net layers are beneath OCI in the stack, I would think that if these certificates work at all with Oracle (via some other client, like SQL*Plus), it should work with all types of apps.
But, I believe the Pro* stuff is not all that up to date, so if connectivity requires 10g features, there's a small risk of incompatibility issues.

Mac Pro is continually tries to connect to iMac

I have a Mac Pro that is constantly trying to connect to my wife's iMac. If her computer is not on, I keep getting an irritating message saying that her computer can not be found. If her computer is on, it constantly gets remounted on my desktop no matter how many times I eject it. This just started the other day and it seems to happen no matter what programs are running or if any are running at all.
I have checked to see if that computer somehow got put into my startup items but it has not. I have also cleared out the recent server list but that did not help.
Any help would be much appreciated.

Do you have any programs that keep the two in sync?
Does it happen form the time it is started, or does it start happening after a period of time or after starting a program?
Try starting with the Shift key held down. It will take a little while longer to start as it is running a file consistency check, but it will disable any startup items, also. If it doesn't try to connect when you boot like that into safe mode, then there is something that is being loaded at startup.

New 13" Macbook Pro trying to connect to a Panasonic VIERA TC-L42U30 as second monitor. I've used multiple hdmi-thunderbolt/mini displayport adapters and multiple hdmi cables and still no success. The Macbook does not sense the second monitor (TV). Help?!

I've been a Mac since 2008, so I know my way around the system pretty well. This issue, however, has me stumped. I had an iMac until now and only now am I experiencing some difficulty with my new MacBook Pro. The model I have is the newest 13" Macbook Pro model and I'm trying to connect a Panasonic VIERA TC-L42U30 42" HDTV as a second monitor via the Thunderbolt port.
It worked the first two times and hasn't worked since, after 10-15 attempts with different configurations, turning things on n off, restarting the mac, unplugging the cables, adapters, TV, resetting the P RAM, etc... I've used multiple hdmi-thunderbolt/mini displayport adapters and multiple hdmi cables and still no success. No matter what I do, the Macbook does not sense the TV as a second monitor anymore.
I took the MacBook Pro to the Apple Store, and their "genius" there had it working fine with a DVI connection to a regular monitor. The Panasonic TV I have has HDMI connections and one VGA connection which does not support HD, but no DVI option. I want an HD connection to mirror or extend my MacBook Pro screen. At the Apple Store, they didn't have a Thunderbolt/Mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapter, so he could not try that out for me.
Anyone else have this configuration or another similar one with a Panasonic HDTV?
Ideas? Suggestions? Anything?! Help!!
P.S. I'm running Mountain Lion, if that wasn't already obvious. Everything is up to date in my App Store as well.
Thanks!

Hi There,
I have had the exact same issue but with a projector.
The issue lies with Mountian Lion 10.8.2.
I tried many a combination with no luck to get HDMI working.
Took my mac into the apple store and came to the conclusion it was the software, so I asked them to install 10.8 onto it (this is destructive so a backup is a must)
Bought my macbook home and voila, now displaying through my projector.
There is a small graphics update after 10.8.1 which seems to be the cause.
Hope this helps.
Thanks.

I am using a mini display port to VGA adapter. I have sucessfully hooked up boh devices but it stopped working after a handful of times. I was wondering if there is anything I can do to fix the problem or is my cable broken?

It appears what happened is the installer though it was looking at a empty drive and just went ahead and installed.
I of course am assuming here you didn't use Disk Utility to format the drive first before installing, that would wipe out your files and programs for sure.
So what to do, what to do.
Well there is hope for you as long as the drive wasn't Filevaulted.
I'll explain. When a hard drive writes data for the first time to a drive, it starts at the very top and works it's way down.
When OS X was installed the first time, it was at the top of the drive, unless you upgraded then the upgraded OS X could have been written elsewhere.
Now when you just reinstalled OS X, the new OS went on the top of the drive, overwriting any data that was there previously, so what was there you have lost forever which is about 8GB or so. If it was the previous OS there, then your more in luck because only the old OS X was overwritten.
The remaining space on the drive still can have a copy of your files, provided it's not overwritten yet.
It's because when a hard drive deletes data or reformats, it doesn't remove the data off the drive or overwrites it immediately, it's just made so it's SPACE is available for new files to be written there.
So technically one can recover the deleted data off a non-encrypted/scrubbed hard drive with special software.
The way it does this is it reads the 1's and 0's of the files themselves, and through a lot of figuring out, can tell what that file is and what it belongs too.
So what you will have to do is this:
Create a data recovery/undelete external boot drive
or if you don't have the skills, then take it to a local PC/Mac tech and they can do a direct image of the drive and then you can run Data Rescue on it to rebuild your files.

I have just tried to connect my Mac book pro to an LG Plasma TV via an iWires Mini DisplayPort to HDMI cable. All I get on my TV is the Mac wallpaper and nothing else. I am missing something really silly, could anyone help please.

Hi there. I also bought an iWires mini Display port to HDMI cable and have an LG LED/LCD TV. I plugged it in to my MB Pro and followed the very small writing that came in the package and got both audio and video going. You need to change the audio settings from within System Preferences on your Mac to select your TV as the audio output.
My concern is the data latency - do you experience a delay between moving your mouse on the MBPro and the TV displaying the movement? It is only a fraction of a second, but certainly enough to be annoying, especially in a cable as expensive as the iWire.

Hello Victoria,
It sounds like you are connecting your MacBook Pro with your television, but you are not getting additional options for your external display.
I found an article with steps to troubleshoot issues with displays. This article is for internal and external displays, so you can skip any steps referring to the internal display. I recommend reviewing the section titled "No video or no signal, image distortion, 'snow,' or flickering" in the following article:
Apple computers: Troubleshooting issues with video on internal or external displays

Thank you for posting in the Apple Support Communities.
