What can a server allow me to do?

Hi guys
How can I assess information on my server via a different network? I have a Mac Mini Server but haven't set up yet. Will I be able to assess info on the server at work for example? I was told that I must have a static ip and set it up this way if I want to do this. Can someone help me please?
Thank you

Hello,
So you have a Mac Mini Server for home?
If it were my server I would use the VPN service. You will want a static IP if you can get one but you can get around this using dyndns. Your router will need to be configured to allow the VPN ports to pass through to your server. You server will also need to have a static ip for the ip range on your internal network. You will also want to setup file sharing using AFP or SMB or both. SMB better for windows and AFP better for Macs though Macs can also access the server over SMB.
I hope this helps a bit you will need to read up on setting up the server and understand a bit more on VPN and the likes before you can choose which options are best for you.
Good luck,
David Lee

Hi,
Can you please show the current link? (the docs.iplanet.com is no longer valid)
I also have multiple ip addresses on my machine. When I login into the admin server, it always thinks it's one of the secondary ip addresses, which aren't granted access rights.
For example, if I go to configure a different port number for the admin server, it won't let me, because it thinks I am on one of the ip addresses which aren't allowed to access it.
Thanks.

Try:
iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
Next, try doing a manual install/update using the instructions here:

HT202774 I have I Phone 6 plus and I have Verizon Visual Vocie Mail service I pay for it. THe I Phone 6 plus will not allow the words to show on my screen from my voice messages. What can I do. I have been to Apple, Geek Squad, Verizon, searched I ne

I have tried to get a response from Apple concerning the " I must have the readable version of the Visual Voice Mail from Verizon" The I Phone 6 plus will not let the readable version of Visual Voice Mail from Verizon work on the phone.
Why what can be done to allow this to show on the IPhone6 plus screen. please someone solve this It should be so simple for the powers that built this phone. Simple but so important to the hard of hearing.

This is a user-to-user support forum so you may want to submit feedback to Apple at https://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html
Also, if Verizon is charging you for Premium Visual Voice Mail (which according to their website is currently the only one that offers voice to text) you should contact them for a refund as the "Check Device Compatibility" link at their http://www.verizonwireless.com/wcms/consumer/products/visual-voicemail.html shows that only 16 phones are supported and the iPhone is not one of them.
If you decide to switch phones, you may also want to consider that feature from Verizon only transcribes the first 45 seconds of a voicemail.

Hello Naila1,
It sounds like you are unable to send emails, as they go straight to the outbox, but you can get the emails without issue. I recommend using the Connection Doctor to help you troubleshoot what is happening with the following article:

Hi i have a problem with my iphone 3gs. i updated the software to ios 6 but now when trying to activate the phone it comes up with a message saying that the activation server is currently unavailable, also it always says no sim! what can i do?

i have an activation problem with my iphone 3gs. i updated the software to io6 using itunes but now the phone will not complete activation because it keeps saydin the activation server is not available and to re try later. ive been trying for 6 hours but it still wont activate. if i try using itunes then it sayd no sim inserted when there is one inserted, what can i do?

You are right, but how could i send it to Apple? when the phone company first replaced my iphone they had in stock alots of iphones and they just sent mine back to Apple and gave me a new one, so all i did is to give them my phone, but now how could i sent it to Apple? and i cant send it by myself, and the store wont do that, its a lost for them.. so sending it to Apple wasnt an option from the begining.
and for the record, i dont think the store where i bought it is an authorized shop.. its just a store who boughts phone's from Apple in a low price and sells it in much more money..

It would worth your asking in the Final Cut Pro X forum - someone else may have experienced the same problem.
I assume you have already trashed Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.dotmac... (several files beginning with this) and (same path) com.apple.idisk - though I suspect the problem lies rather with the individual programs which are trying to access something on the non-existent iDisk.

If you have problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the DMG file to the desktop
* Firefox 6.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
* Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
* Install the new version that you have downloaded

Generally, that means the phone has been jailbroken (hacked). You can try restoring it as new using iTunes. Beyond that, there's really nothing we can advise as jailbroken phones can't be supported on these forums.

Reset your user password. If you are using Lion, hold down the option key when you hear the starting "bong". then select the recovery disk. Then follow the instructions as alid out in the second arrow bullet on this document.
