Goto www.no-ip.com and sign-up for a free dynamic DNS address, then download, install and configure the software, this way you access the system remotely without needing to know the specific IP address.

Windows XP Pro does, but UltraVNC is just as effective and free. Yes, Chicken of the VNC much be installed on the Mac. Also,I assume your friend will not have a fixed IP address on his PC thru his hosting provider, so your friend should sign …

I do this all the time. UltraVNC is a good free client for Windows. Chicken of the VNC is available at http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/9517 You may have to have your PC buddy make some changes to the settings on his router to allow passin…

Open System Preferences --> Sharing and uncheck Apple Remote Desktop Actually, if no one needs access to your system, then uncheck everything here. Next, click the Firewall tab and be sure your firewall is turned on. That should take care of…

Oh yeah, forgot to mention, if you set this at your mom's and want to really test it, take your laptop to a local hot spot and try to connect from there. If you aren't sure, most major hotels provide wireless access from within their lobbies. This w…

Shelly: There is a fairly painless and FREE way to accomplish what you want to do. I'll walk you through it a step at a time. On your mom's computer, open System Preferences and select Sharing. Place a check on Apple Remote Desktop. On the Acc…

Have you tried recalibrating the battery as explained in the MBP manual? I think they recommend you perform the procedure monthly.

This is good for Apple and makes sense for buyers. Up through the G5, the Apple Store sold Virtual PC ($79.95 without Windows). So, selling Parallels for $79.95 without Windows is a no-brainer. Better yet, it is vitally important for people that …

The built-in remote desktop vnc requires 5900 and that can not be changed. Try downloading OSXVNC. That allows you to change the VNC display port.

Check you settings under Network -- airport. click the Options... button and check your settings here. These settings could be preventing your from connecting automatically. Another thing to try is to create a new Location (say "Mobile" and set u…

Well, its fairly simple in Beta3. There are 2 ways to do it. You can turn on Windows file sharing and connect to the Mac from the WinXP image or share a folder on XP and connect to it from the Mac. I chose to share a folder (or drive) on XP and s…

If you are running an Intel Mac, you might be able to dump that XP box by getting a copy of Parallels Workstation Beta 3 -- it allows you to fully install XP into a virtualized PC at close to native speed and run XP as a window on your Mac. That was…

I had Boot Camp on my MacBookPro and followed the instructions exactly. Everything went smoothly and I installed XP SP2. That being said, dual-booting just wasn't for me so I went the virtualization route instead and used boot camp to get rid of the…

Well, by definition, the sparse image automatically GROWS. You can shrink it fairly easily. I found this on MacOSXhints.com "Well it turns out shrinking those bloated sparse images is not a problem. Just unmount the image if it is mounted. Then p…

One other work-around that works for me is that I've set my desktop G4 using OSXVNC to allow local logins only. I then activated Remote Login and SSH tunnel to my desktop G4, logging in vai Chicken of the VNC. Once on my local Desktop, I bring up Re…

Rosetta is Great! So far the only programs I found that didn't work are Virtual PC and Apple's Remote Desktop. I've loaded up demo copies of Poser, modo3d, maya, illuatrator, photoshop, dreamweaver, golive, office, etc, etc, etc, and all the app…
