Using Contribute Remotely

I'm relatively new to Contribute so this is, hopefully, an easy question.
I have Contribute CS5 (Macintosh platform)
My clients are mostly Windows.
If I want my client to be able to edit content; what do they need on their computer for this to happen?
I'm thinking of free apps, like WordPress that work through a browser. Is this how Contribute works?

Thanks for the reply...
It's a shame that when you purchase Contribute, you don't get a client-side editor... or something like that.
The client would get this stripped down version of the app, and it would allow them to edit based on a key file sent by you to the client.
But I guess that I'm dreaming...
Anyway thanks again for the quick reply.

Is there a way to open the mic using apple remote desktop

Is there a way to open the mircophone channel using Apple Remote Desktop so I can listen on anything thats happening at my computer at home? If not is there another software that would work?
Also is there a way to use apple's software to control and watch a PC?

You would have to launch software that would accept audio from the microphone and transmit it to you in some fashion. ARD does not transmit audio itself. Another remote control solution such as Timbuktu might transmit audio, so you could look into that, perhaps.
Also is there a way to use apple's software to control and watch a PC?
You can install a VNC server on the PC and ARD can then take control of the system. It can be tricky to find a VNC system that will work with ARD, though, so search this forum for "VNC" for possible options. One of the applications that support Microsoft's remote desktop architecture such as their own Remote Desktop Connection Client for Mac or iTap Mobile RDP will probably work better, though.

Can no longer use the Remote app on iPhone 5 or iPad 1

Hi,
I've long used the Remote app to control my iTunes library which I stream through two Airport Expresses. It's been a great solution for some time.
However, since the latest updates, I can no longer do this. The iTunes library does not show up in the app, only a message telling me to turn on Home Sharing in iTunes.
I have turned Sharing off and on on the iPhone, iPad and iTunes but have had no luck getting it to work.
Any suggestions welcome!
Thanks
Phil

Thanks Linc,
well that *****... I guess I am going to have to reach out to the developers. It does not look like they are doing this anytime soon cause the website is pretty old in itself.
Thanks for the info on this,
Paul

Cant see my airplay icon, cant use my remote app on either of my devices

Hi
I have the gen 3 apple TV and somehow i can no longer airplay, from my mac book pro, ipad, ipad mini or iphone. It used to work on all of my devices and now I cant see the icon.
When I open my remote app it tells me that I have to turn on Home sharing on my itunes or apple tv. It is turned on, on all of my devices.
I have been trying to trouble shoot this issue (all of my devices have the latest updates) and I still cant use my remote or air play
Any suggestions on how to fix this?

I was able to fix the issue by unpluging the apple tv, router, and modem all for about 2-3 minutes and then replugging them in

How do I use the remote app on a dual band network?

There are 2 routers in my home. One is dual band (SSID: NETGEAR49-5G). This one is being used as a 5GHz access point while the other (SSID: NETGEAR49) is being used as a 2.4GHz extender. However I can't use the Remote app to control my iTunes library, regardless of which router I connect to. I can't even use a passcode to add my library because I just keep getting an error saying I entered the wrong code. Strangely everything's fine if I turn off the 2.4GHz router, but I don't want to have to keep doing that. Is there any way I can configure the two routers so I can use the Remote app and other network-based services??

Hi,
I can tell you how it works on my iPhone.
I click the Messages icon to open it.
I click the box with pencil icon top right for New Message
I start to type the name of the person I want to contact in the "To" spot.
(Alternatively use the Blue + icon and select direct from Contacts list)
I select the full name of Contact from any list if there are multiples.
Once the person and their Contact option is selected I click on the text field at the bottom of screen
Using the "keyboard" I type the Message and then the Send button.

Using a remote desktop connection with the Macbook pro.

I use the remote desktop connection on the Macbook pro and am unable to exchange info between the mac and the remote connetion windows. For example, if I am writing an email from the remote connection and want to attach a document, photo etc. that I created on the Mac, it just doesn't work. It seems like the Mac and the desktop connection are completely seperated eventhough they are both on the screen in front of me. the systems I use for work are not Apple compatible and will not work on anything other than windows explorer and in my case the remote desk top connection. Any ideas!

Welcome to Apple Discussions
Try running in 'ClamShell' mode (MacBook Pro lid closed and using an external keyboard and mouse) with the Gateway connected and then run System Preferences/Displays, it should show then ...

Avi/WMV video using Apple Remote App to Apple TV via iPad?

Will this work if I install the codecs to play these with quicktime? Or do I need to manually convert my videos to .mov to stream them?
I don't have these actual products to test so I can't try to figure it out myself but if anyone has come across this I would love to know the answer. Thanks!

Welcome to the Apple Community.
When using the remote app on the iPad/iPhone etc, the content is streamed from iTunes to the Apple TV, it is played by the Apple TV not by iTunes, therefore installing Quicktime components on your mac/pc will not help the Apple TV decode an unsupported stream.
I hope this is what you were asking.

Using Apple remote with macbook display closed

Hi ,
I have a macbook connected to LCD TV with HDMI connection .
Is there a way to use Apple remote with display closed .
examples of using apple remote with display closed would be
(1) waking the macbook with apple remote
(2) putting the macbook to sleep with apple remote
(3) Shutting down the macbook with apple remote
(4) accessing front row (using LCD TV as Display )
while doing this should I connect the macbook to power source.
please point me to any documentation / solutions available .
I don't have any external keyboard or mouse connected to macbook . I just want to use Apple remote to do the above functions .
Thanks

Hi suresh,
as mentioned here:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=86286
and
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300562
you must have to have a keyboard or mouse to trigger the macbook wake up from sleep when you close the lid.
usb mouse is not that expensive and you can start with that.
Good Luck

Multiple Apple TVs using same Remote app

Hi there
I have an Apple TV at work which we share using a company Apple ID, and an Apple TV at home which I use with my personal Apple ID. Is there any way I can use the remote app on my iphone to control both, without signing in and out of Home Sharing on the remote app with the two different IDs?
Thanks

Thanks and thanks! I thought I might have been missing something.
It's a bit restrictive to expect all users to have only one Home Sharing account - hopefully they'll address this in a future update.

My husband has paired his phone using the remote app to the TV- I would like to do the same with my phone. Can we pair more than one phone to the tv using the remote app ?

My husband has paired his phone using the remote app to the apple TV- I would like to do the same with my phone. Can we pair more than one phone to the tv using the remote app ?

Yes I believe so. Try it and see you can always delete the Apple TV from a remote if it messes things up.
But we have three remotes setup to do this. My iPhone and iPad and my wifes iPhone. She has a different iTunes logon but it seems to work fine

How do I use a remote superdrive? I'd like to backup iTunes and iPhoto

I'd like to be able to use a remote shared drive. I know how to make it shared - but not how to then get another machine to share it!
I'd like to do remote backups to my mac mini superdrive - I have it there and I can see the disc, but, when I try to get iTunes or iPhoto to back up they only see the local drive.
Is there some way that I can do this with toast?
The superdrive on my G5 is faulty, I need to have it repaired. I do have one on my Mac mini that I have shared.
How do I get my iTunes backup to go to a remote, shared Superdrive DVD?

Can you not just manually drag the iTunes music files to the other drive and then burn them to the CD or DVD media? I do realize that by doing it this way you will lose all of your playlists but at least you would have copies of all your music and or video files. You could also copy all of your itunes library and related files to the shared folder or some other folder on the mini and then use iTunes on it to do the backup and then simply remove the copied files from the mini when you were done.
The built in backup that comes with iTunes is only designed to work with the built in drive not a shared drive I believe.

When I use my remote to start a movie on iTV it starts a different movie on my MacBook, plus if I use the arrow up or down on my remote it adjusts the sound on my MacBook. How do I stop this?

I am using 2nd generation Apple TV and have a MacBook Pro. When I use my remote to start a movie on iTV a different movie starts on my MacBook. Also when I use the up and down arrows on the remote it adjusts the sound on my MacBook. Is this something I have to live with, or is there something I can do so the remote control doesn't affect my laptop?

Well, I feel sheepish. I found the answer. Thank you Apple Community!!!

Can I share my internet with my Ipad and simultaneously connect to a airport express that I use to remotely connect speakers?

Can I share my internet from my Imac with my Ipad and simultaneously connect to a airport express that I use to remotely to connect speakers?
The big problem that I'm having is that when internet sharing via the airport I can not simultaneously connect with my airport express. It would be great to be able to share internet from my Imac so I can be using my Ipad and at the sametime have my wife use the airport express to stream music in a different room. It would be awesome to be able to have the ability to do both. Does anybody know how?
