Using ARD across the country

I'm fairly new to ARD but in the last week have been able to successfully set it up on my home network. The daunting part to me is setting it up on my sister's computer who lives all the way across the country. She is pretty inept with computers and went ahead and got a new Mac. The trouble is she doesn't really understand how to use it. I would like to be able to observe and control her computer from my home 2700 miles away. I have no idea how to set that up. Is there anyone or anything out there that would guide me through it step by step? If so, I'd really appreciate the help.

The subject of connecting ARD via the Internet has been covered here many times already (search the forum for "Internet"), but take a look at this web page:

It should help, though you may have to refer to her router's documentation, if she's using one, for specifics on opening and forward ports in that particular unit.
Regards.

Frequent locations says I'm across the country

I just randomly checked my frequent locations the other day and apparently it says I'm in Pullman washington which is across the country from Connecticut where I really am. Should I be worried at all?

"Although you can browse the iTunes Store in any country without being signed in, you can only purchase content from the iTunes Store for your own country. This is enforced via the billing address associated with your credit card or other payment method that you use with the iTunes Store, rather than your actual geographic location. You can use the iTunes Store in all countries of which you’re a resident, but you’ll either need a separate iTunes Store account for each one, or you’ll need to continually be switching the billing information on your single account. Generally, it’s simpler just to set up an alternative account for these situations, although it’s worth nothing that features like iTunes in the CLoud and iTunes Match are designed to work best when using a single iTunes Store account, as you can only switch accounts with these services every 90 days."

Is AirPort a cellular connection that can be used out in the country?

Can the AirPort be used out in the country?

If you are saying that you only have celllular service, you will need an adapter like the example shown below to be able to connect an AirPort Extreme.

Make sure that the device you choose will support your cellular service before you buy any product.

my 20-something behavior of moving in and out a million times before i finally flew the nest.

I switched from AT&T to Verizon because I was told that they had better service.
I bought two Lumia 928 phone because I liked the way you could get to your data and applications and how easy it was to integrate this phone with the Microsoft cloud environment being developed. The future path for this operating system has a great upside and financing with research that could surpass all others if implemented properly. Microsoft's recent reorganization and selection for CEO shows that they are most definitely serious and in it for the long game.
What I have been finding is that Verizon is nearly the same in coverage for the areas that I have been in and their updates to their phones are way behind.
We purchase these phones because we are sold on specific features and development paths of them. To find out that Verizon simply does not care to support the feature sets that are added for their existing customers is a very big deficit.
I am half way through my contract and am still weighing the pros and cons of the Verizon service. At this point I can tell you that Verizon is behind the previous experience I had with other carriers with respect to keeping the phone features up to date.
As a suggestion to Verizon, other carriers are looking for ways to out market you. This is an area that you are being beat soundly in. Please make this a customer satisfaction issue and follow up on this board. You are taking a beating and will begin to lose a reputation that took years to create. Once you lose it, it takes much longer to get it back. Do not get lazy or take "Lean" to customer service.

Decrypt a wireless WEP key from across the country

Hi All,
I recently started a new job where there is no documentation whatsoever anywhere. I have about 200 access points spread across the planet, and the majority of them have WEP keys. I have access to the APs and can see the encrypted versions of the WEP keys in the show run.
I need to decrypt these keys for documentation/standardization purposes. Are there any ways I can do it? I tried making a key-chain in a spare router I have here and dropping in the encrypted WEP keys, but the router complained that the format was invalid, so I couldn't do that trick.
R1(config)#key chain decrypt
R1(config-keychain)#key 1
R1(config-keychain-key)#key-string 7 <Encrypted WEP key placed here>
R1(config-keychain-key)#do show key chain decrypt
All the methods online assume you are within range of the SSID physically, which is not the case for me.
Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi George,
No unfortunately I believe the keys are different everywhere. You mentioned you've used tools in the past. Do any of these tools work when the "cracker" is not physically near the wireless range/SSID? I.E. I'm on the East Coast, WAP is in California.

How can I unlock my iphone to use out of the country.I have a iphone 5

Im traveling out of the country,and I need to unlock my iphone 5 to use there.How can I do that?

You don't need to unlock your iPhone if you want to use it abroad. There's roaming
If, however you want to insert a SIM card in another country, you should contact your provider. Every provider has it's specific rules for unlocking so I can't give you a general answer

How to handle DPX files for transfer to another party across the country.

Hi,
I'm currently working with somebody that is on the other side of the country to do some positing work for my Premiere Pro progect. There are 31 shots that need some compositing work. I have already created the DPX files that I will be sending him, however, the total size of all project files is 33gigs. Now, I decided to zip the files up and send that way. Then it hit me, when I zipped up the thousands of individual DPX files I will be sending him, the compressed way down, like 8-1 (from 33gb to 7gb). The full project ended up being I sent him one small batch of files, he opened them, and said they did not seem as though they lost any resolution, but I'm more concerned with color information being lost. So, my question is this...When I zipped up the files, did I lose anything. The unzipped back to the appropriate size (roughly 9mb per frame), and he said he could not see any loss in the image. However, my concern is that when I go to bump up exposure on a couple of shots that were lost, Im going to be dealing with artifacting, and working with a lot less information than the original DPX files contained.
Did I lose information when I zipped up the DPX files?
Please help. I may end up just fedexing him a hard drive full of media, but then I have to worry about shipping a flash drive with my media on it.
Thanks in advance for ANY and ALL assistance.

Did I lose information when I zipped up the DPX files?
Nothing at all.
...my concern is that when I go to bump up exposure on a couple of shots that were lost, Im going to be dealing with artifacting, and working with a lot less information than the original DPX files contained.
Zip only compresses the binary data that makes up the image...
there is no compression of the image at all.
After your co-worker completes the composites,
he should zip them up to send them back to you.
No worries. I do this all the time.

Can I hook up an ipod touch to a tv so I can use facetime across the globe. I live in Oz my brother lives in UK and I want to buy him an ipod touch so we can have the great facetime chats but I want to do it on the bigscreen. Is this possible?

I think the title says it all really. I am looking to buy my brother in the UK an ipod touch so we can have a good chat via facetime as I find it better than Skype BUT I want to have the conversation on the tv rather than all the family trying to cram around an ipod touch or the ipad. Is there a way of hooking the devices up to the tv so we can acheive this? It would be great if we could. I know you can hook up an ipod to the tv to watch films etc if it jailbroken so the technology is there but do Apple utilise it all the way? If not why not? I dont want this to turn into a platform for politics please, just after a little help.

Google shows it will works with a 5G iPod touch and with a Apple TV 2. You would use AirPlay mirroring.

Can I sync my ipad using wifi across the internet?

Hi there.
I am looking for the easiest way to support a remote iPad using my local computer and iTunes. My mother lives in a distant city and she doesn't have access to a computer, however she has access to WiFi. I would like to be able to help her with content , updates, etc from my computer .
Suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

There are apps that let you SSH into an ipad in order to copy files to and from a computer. But you can't run apps or system tasks like upgrades on an ipad remotely, which is what I think you want to do.

Screen sharing using VNC across the Internet

I have my computer set up with no-ip.Com and I can ping the machine at the hostname. I turned on screen sharing in the control panel with the settings: I'll allow access for all users, computers settings: anyone can request to control the computer checked, and VPN users can connect with a password. I also went to my Apple Airport utility and added the Apple remote desktop service in the port mapping, which opens port 5900, the screen sharing port.
When I try to connect to the host name using the screen sharing client, it attempts to connect, but fails after five seconds.
Any help would be greatly appreciated

to see if port 5900 is open use your terminal with the following command (this test should be done from outside your network)
nc your-no-ip-serveraddress 5900
I would also recommend a much more secure way to do this.
Turn on remote login. then open tcp port 22 from your router to your mac.
Then use the terminal from your remote mac
ssh -L 5901:localhost:5900 your-no-ip-serveraddress
once the tunnel is established in the screensharing app use a host address of localhost:5901

I am editing an idvd slideshow to have some of the music selections from itunes fade out at the end of each vacation segment using music reflecting the country visited. Is there a way to fast-forward the slideshow to observe the where the music ends.

I am editing an idvd slideshjow to have some of the music selections fade out at the end of each vacation segment. Is there a way I can fast-forward through the slideshow so I can see where the music is ending and adjust the time to end properly? (without repeatedly clicking the forward button on the e-remote)

Thanks very much, varjak paw. I checked half a dozen tracks on my iMac from different albums which did not copy over, plus several which did copy over. They all show the same location:
Users/Christina/Music/iTunes/iTunes Media/Music/Brandenburg Concertos etc. (one example)
What does this mean relative to the music which didn't copy? Is there another step? or somewhere else I should look?
And wow, thanks for the info about not having legal right to keep the tracks from the CDs. I am embarrassed that I didn't know. I gave most of my CDs to my sister. Before I delete all this highly prized music (400-500 tracks) -- if I get the CDs back from her and keep them at my house, can I continue to keep those tracks on my iMac? (Sister does not have iTunes or even know what an mp3 is, so it's not like she has copied or imported the CDs -- I just didn't realize I needed to retain possession.)
Or do I still need to remove all that music from my library?
Thank you again for your help.

How can I give an iBook I have finished to a daughter across the country?

iPad

You haven't purchased the book, you have purchased a licence to read it on your iPad. It is in the agreement you agreed to when you signed up for an account.
If the books were able to be shared, what would stop people from just putting all the books up for free on a sharing site?

TS3376 Husband tracking me from 35k feet in the air, claims I stopped for 1 hr in a location and did not move. Actually went work to home (10 min drive). Does the app work from an airplane moving across the country? What would explain this location stop ?

Anyone know the answer why find my iPhone app would show me as stopped or froze in a location for an hour? My husband was tracking me from an airplane on his computer and claims I was stopped somewhere for an hour. This was not at all the case as I went home from work. On his end viewing me from an airplane he claims my location was in front of an address. Not so, why would it do that.? Is there such a thing as recall rating from 35 thousand feet and the locator freezing up? I ask cause this is ridiculous and he claims the app is never wrong when clearly it is.
Thanks

Thank you both above for your replies, wired that he is tracking me from a plane and accusing me of "something". Even weirder is his defending that the app is never wrong. So I take the high road and investigate.
Thanks for the support .

I moved across the country. My iCal event times fell back 3 hours.

So, I moved from the East Coast the West Coast. Now all my recurring events and items created on the east coast (while out there) are appearing as 3 hours earlier on my iCal and iPhone. Example:
Original event time: 1 pm (created on east coast)
Event time in iCal now: 10 am (3 hours earlier)
DESIRED time in iCal: 1 pm
Is there a way to do this automatically without having to go into each event and change manually? Thanks in advance!
T

Yes, go to your settings and under Advanced, turn off Time Zone support.
