LogMeIn recently discontinued their free remote desktop access program, but TeamViewer is still around and offering this feature for free. If you want to connect over the Internet from another device, we recommend you use one of the below, easy-to-use alternatives to Screen Sharing. We don’t recommend this unless you know what you’re doing, as it’s more complicated and there are security concerns. If you want to connect to your Mac from anything that isn’t a Mac, you’ll need to forward ports to ensure the VNC is accessible. When you use another Mac and you’re logged into the same iCloud account, your other Mac will appear under the Shared section of the sidebar in Finder, and you can connect to its screen over the Internet. Open the System Preferences window, click the iCloud icon, check Use Back to My Mac, and go through the setup process. If you have another Mac, you can set up Screen Sharing to work over the Internet without needing any other software. If you don’t set up a password, you’ll have to agree to a confirmation dialog on the Mac every time you want to control it remotely. If you don’t have a Mac or want to use another VNC client, you can connect to the IP address displayed here. Bear in mind that the IP address displayed above is likely an internal IP address where your Mac can be found on your local network, which means you can’t access it over the Internet without forwarding ports.Ĭlick the Computer Settings button to set a password. If you have another Mac on the local network, you can open a Finder window, look in the Shared section of the sidebar, select the computer you want to control, and click Share Screen. This control panel will inform you how you can connect. Click the Sharing icon in the System Preferences window and enable the Screen Sharing checkbox. To be clear.I think your point is perfectly valid for some users, just not all of us.To enable screen sharing, click the Apple icon on the menu bar at the top of your screen and select System Preferences. The general ask seems pretty straightforward.a little larger with explicit skip and FF/Rewind buttons.

I use a harmony remote with a IR repeater in a main TV area, for example, but the controller is expensive, oversized, and overcomplicated for other rooms.Īdditionally, there is a potential functionality upside to using a remote made by the same company as the AppleTV.if they would only make a version that incorporated more of the feedback from so many disgruntled users. There are solutions for IR routing over cat 6 and other methods but they add expense, complexity, and often underperform.

Mounting behind a TV or in a media closet is easier with bluetooth or RF remotes. Your point is completely valid for many users but the problem is that the IR remotes aren't as functional when line of sight is blocked. But I would be interested in a simpler bluetooth remove from Satechi - if the price weren't too high.
Logitech Harmony remotes with a hub (the higher-end ones like the "elite" and "pro") have bluetooth support for the Apple TV and work well. Not that it really matters to me, I’m one of those rare few that loves the Siri Remote. That has me wondering though, does anyone make a Bluetooth compatible remote that works with the Apple TV. I have my Apple TV mounted to the back of my TV, for instance. Problem is the IR sensor might not be visible for everyone.
I understand the hate some of the ATV remotes get but I don't understand why people don't opt for a different remote if they don't like it. Pick nearly any IR remote of your liking and have the Apple TV learn it. You can use a different remote with it as long it's a reasonably recent model (something like gen 2 or later). Ya know.like a useable one.made for human sized hands. With real buttons for fast forward and reverse. Now if only they'd make one for the AppleTV.
