HT4907 can I use the back to my iMac network if i am overseas

I am travelling with my iMac Air as follows:

* 8 GB 1600 Mhz DDR3
My office computer is iMac
* OS X Yosemite 10.10.1

Hey Bulldogs28,
The use of Back to My Mac does not require that the computers and networks involved be in the same country. It should be noted, however, that some locations may have firewalls that could adversely affect the use of Back to My Mac.
See this article for further information -
Set up and use Back to My Mac - Apple Support
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Be well,
Brett L

  • How come I can't use the back gesture in certain apps with my magic mouse on certain applications in Lion OS?

    How come I can't use the back gesture with my magic mouse on certain applications in Lion? I figured out that in Safari i have to use a 1 finger swipe to go back a page instead of 2 fingers like i used to do in Snow Leopard. But apps like iTunes and iPhoto and i can't do that. Any ideas? is there a setting im missing to make this work? It works in Safari but not any other applications, so im assuming theres no setting for this. Just want to know if this is just a bug that will be fixed in the next update or if its something I can fix now. Any help would be appreciated because its kind of annoying. Other than this minor issue I love Lion. Full screen apps are unbelievable.

  • I can't open the back of my iMac G5!

    We bought some RAM to upgrade our iMac G5. The only problem is we can't get the back off of the iMac. We loosened the two of the screws to the "stop." The middle screw just turns round and round. The sides are loose, but the middle holds tight as we try to lift the cover off. We had the computer in the shop a year or so ago, could they have "stripped" that middle screw? If so, does anyone have an idea of how to get that middle screw to let go?
    Maybe there is a lever to push to get the cover to pop off?
    Help!

    we can't get the back off of the iMac
    Which iMac G5 do you have? On mine you cannot open the back, just the RAM compartment, and you have to be very careful you do not loosen the wrong screws.
    But presumably you are following the detailed instructions in the manual that came with the iMac?
    In any case make sure that your screwdriver is undamaged and the exact correct size for the screw.

  • I can't use the BACK button to get back to Google after visiting some websites.

    If I use certain web pages, I can't get back to my Google search after I finish. The BACK button says the page expired, and that I should ask the site to send the page again. I do not want to see that page, but just step past it to the page before it.
    There should be a way to tell Firefox that I don't really want to see that page again, but just to keep going back to the page before that.
    This usually happens on pages with forms.
    Some other pages actually destroy my BACK button history when they start. How can I prevent this? I have often seen another page I wanted to go to next in the search, and then the page I went to first erased my BACK button list. Then, when I went to search again, I couldn't find the other page.

  • Firefox doens't show a web address anymore and I can't use the back button (it's not click-able)

    The back and forward buttons, the refresh and stop loading buttons are not available for me to click. I can see them, but they are completely gray and I can't click on them. Also, firefox doesn't have a web address in the box anymore. It is always blank, even after I type in a website and it goes there.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened

  • Can I use the screen of my iMac G5 by linking it to my MacBook Pro?

    Hi.
    I've seen a lot of producers studio pics, using 2 monitors, it seems to be they've connected there MacBooks up to a 24" + TV/computer screen,
    I would like to know how to do this, what cables i need etc. Also, I havent got a spare monitor anywhere, but i have a iMac G5 (power PC) in my studio, could i possibly link my macbook up with my G5, so i can work on my MBP and use the screen of the G5 mac?
    Thanks!

    What cable you need depends on which ports the monitor and computer have. If you want to use a monitor built into a computer, the cable required is an Ethernet one unless otherwise noted; this also requires setting up Virtual Network Computing.

  • Can I use the back ground picture of Firefox as my desk top theme

    I have personas & would like to know if I can get these pics as my desk top theme

    cactus101, Welcome to the discussion area!
    You mention Express and Extreme. I'm going to assume that you are connecting the PC to the AirPort Extreme base station (AEBS).
    Yes you can plug the PC into the AEBS's LAN port. The PC will be configured to use Ethernet and DHCP to get an IP address. The PC doesn't won't even know that the AEBS exists. It will only know that a router exists and it is connected via Ethernet.Will our computers be linked at all if the wireless aspect of it is only being used for my g4 ibook?Yes they will be on the same network subnet.

    Depends if you can transfer the licenses and activate Office or you need a new key but your Mac will come with some and you can redownload if bought off the AppStore on others.
    And might note this was not the forum for MBP users.

  • Safari why can I not use the back button

    Hi;
    Ever since I upgraded tp Mountain Lion I cannot use the back button to return to an previous website.
    It seems I can only use the back button if I am going back within the current web site.
    In other words:
    I am in website A and go to a website B (home Page) and in website B I open another page, when I hit the back button it will go back to the home page of website B BUT then the back button is gray and no longer allows to to go back to the website A.
    Yes, there are tabs that have web pages but they are shortened.
    Thanks
    Greg

    Thanks, Not sure why when I got mountain lion it dropped it.
    Thanks again

  • Can I use the backup of one iPod Touch on another?

             Hello,
    The other day, I accidentally dropped my 4th generation 32GB iPod Touch on concrete from a couple of feet.  The screen has many cracks and the top-right corner is missing a few chunks of screen. The corner is completely shattered and the "organs" are visible through this gash.  I backed up the iPod to my computer.  I was wondering if this iPod "crashes' or stops working due to the hole, can I use the back up of the data of the iPod on another 4th generation 32GB iPod Touch to have my previous data(from the original iPod) on the new iPod?
              Thanks in advance.
    P.S. The iPod is currently working fine as of the time this was posted(including the near-by camera), but I am very concerned it that it may become unusable.  And if you know of a place where I may be able to get it repaired for cheaper than Apple, please share.

    I was wondering if this iPod "crashes' or stops working due to the hole, can I use the back up of the data of the iPod on another 4th generation 32GB iPod Touch to have my previous data(from the original iPod) on the new iPod?
    Yes. That is completely correct and the expected result of having to replace an iPod.
    Given the damage you describe, it might not be cost effective to bring it to anyone other than Apple. They have a flat rate exchange program: http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/service/prices/
    Looks like $149 Could be worse, if you had not synced it with your computer.
    Now consider what would happen if your Windows computer broke. Given the prevalence of viruses and such, it is a very likely possibility. Research means to back up your computer and make it a habit to keep the backups updated.

  • Can I use the Icon of the Safari-Browser on my Homepage?

    Hello,
    I'm doing a Homepage and i want to show my users, which browser work for this Homepage. So I wanna show the Icon of the Safari Browser to show that this browser works. If you klick on the image you'll come to the download-page for Safari. I will put copyright informations in my Impressum in every case and, if required, I will put Copyright Information under the picture.
    So can you tell me whether I'm allowed to use the Icon or not? Or, if nobody knows, can you post me a support e-mail adress from apple so that I can ask them for help?
    Thank you and Best Regards

  • Multiple iphones each with an apple id - can i use the same laptop and itunes for back up, restore and updates?

    We have two iphones each with a different apple id - can i use the same laptop and itunes for back up, restore and updates without risking having my apps overwritten.  Basically does itunes keep the two iphones as two separate entities ?  Does iTunes differentiate between the two devices and keep two different SYNCs ?

    Yes, you can use the same computer for BACK UPS, RESTORING AND UPDATING. But that is it.
    You cannot, however, use it to sync the different devices. iTunes will only recognize one device to sync with and if you sync any other devices with that iTunes library, it will replace what is on the phone with whatever is in the library. It cannot differentiate between devices. At most, it will jsut recognize that the phone has been synced with a different iTunes library.
    So if you would like to use the same computer for backing up, restoring and updating, just make sure to turn of Automatic Syncing in your iTunes Preferences.
