remote access computer

I need to access my desktop computer at home and work on Vista Home Premium.  The summer of 2009, I was indeed able to do, but now get an error message when I try to log in.  I heard that with Vista Home license agreement allows a window of 90 days access remotely.  Is that correct, and do I have any options?

Hello

When you connect to the computer at home remotely, the Vista Home computer serves as the host.

Vista (and Win7) Home versions cannot be remote hosts.

Option1. Update for Win 7 Pro.

Option 2. Use a 3rd party like that, http://www.teamviewer.com/index.aspx

Option 3. Use another application to remote control, http://www.ezlan.net/vnc.html

    I was cold called by telephone by a person claiming to work using Windows.

This payment would require me to enter passwords to Paypal, etc while this technician was still working on the computer. Is it a scam? The technician left a reference code and phone number.

    It's absolutely a scam.  Microsoft is not / will not make these calls.

    Do not always allow remote access to your PC to someone who calls you out of the blue...

    answer to * address email is removed from the privacy *.

    Hello

    Please note that it may depend on the versions of Vista and Win 7 you have.

    RTD connection consists on the client computer (the computer that initiates the connection) and a host (the computer on which the connection will too.

    All versions of Windows can act as Clients.

    Can host only Vista/Win 7 Pro/ultimate/Ent.

    Therefore, if you have the OS Home versions', you might be out of luck.

  • Remote access under Vista Home Premium computer

    All the instructions I've seen for remote access to my computer layout calls for a different Version of Windows. I find it a bit of a rip off. At the time where the user had a little more control of his machine, if he had the guts to try, you could always find a workaround or solution to another way to accomplish the task.

    I wonder: is there a fix for this problem?

    I am taking my current office in the Brazil and by setting up there. I wish I can access it from the United States and the thought that I could put in place so I could do. But I don't want to upgrade to another version of windows on it. I'll try to access using a laptop running Windows 7. can someone help me with this problem?

    Thank you very much for your answers.

    It is a Forum of Vista.  To Windows7 questions, you need to republish your question in the Forums Widows7: http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/category/windows7 where someone who specializes in issues of Windows7 and procedures will be more than happy to help you with your problem.  It is possible that your computer in the States works under Vista, but the computer controlling the process is the initiating access and that is why you need to post on the forums of Windows7 (although you will certainly also have to make some changes to your computer in the States to allow remote access works correctly).

    In the meantime, here is an article that applies to both Vista and Windows7 that could help with the basics: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/turn-on-remote-desktop-in-windows-vista/.  I do not know thay will tell you more and better in the other forum.  BTW, I have no idea if Windows7 supports remote access or remote with antyihing desktop - other than the Windows operating system, but you can ask in the other forum.  I suggest to use the network, Email and online Forum here because it is above all a network problem.

    Good luck!

    I have an iMac end 2013 with El Capitan 10.11.5.

    My mother's computer is a mac mini upgraded to 8 MG of RAM and also with El Capitan (do not know if there were other updates since I was there last).

    I would like to be able to connect to the remote computer in order to see its screen and be able to help in updates remotely.

  • alternatives to LogMeIn Pro for remote access?

    Greetings.  Currently, we have systems in the United States, Switzerland and the Mexico that I supported via remote access using LogMeIn Pro.  We paid for a subscription before free LMI Pro has been abandoned even to appreciate the characteristics of LMI Pro.  But as LMI has eliminated this free service, it seems their subscription rate more than doubled each year.  We currently need remote access to 3 Macs and 2 units of Windows (ew).

    Last year, we paid $174. for the annual subscription in support of these 5 systems.  I just checked on the price of renewal and it shows $349.00 for renewal.  This is getting too expensive!

    Last year, I invested in ARD to support my mother MacBook and the MacBook from an old friend, rather than pay LMI for a subscription in support of these systems.  ARD was a good alternative for these systems, but it is not a realistic alternative to remote systems for charity I help support.  Partly because of the PC, also because what it requires port forwarding in the router and finally because I have to be at my computer to use ARD to access those other systems.  LMI offers the possibility to access systems through an iOS app and can be used by other members of the team of charity, anywhere in the world everyone is physically located.  That's why we have maintained the LMI Pro subscriptions for a number of years.

    But with the perennial increase rate of LMI ridiculous (I think they can take their pricing of Obamacare), I'm on my eternal quest for an alternative to remote access.

    Can anyone offer advice?

  • Sharing screen or remote access

    Hi all.  I need some guidance on how to gain access to another Mac computer that is not on my wifi network.  My mom is a bit lost when it comes to computers and calls all the time asking questions about that or the other.  I wish I could help more, but I can't always do more in its place.  I assumed that she could do a screen with me sharing, but I did not understand that yet.  What is the best way to be able to see its screen and help her to?  I have a time machine from the airport, an Airrus SB6183 as my modem and an iMac or MBP to use.  It has an iMac.  Are our different ISP, my comcast, ATT hers.  If you could provide some info that would be great.  Thanks in advance.

    Understand the Messages and screen sharing and test this or use some screen sharing service; Perhaps TeamViewer or an alternative, either commercial or potentially as free if the associated licenses allow your intended use.  It will be by far the best approach here.   Add the Messages application to connect and work through the sequence to accept or request required screen sharing.   Or for the

    You're probably not going to use Apple Remote Desktop (this forum), because it is a commercial product and one that is overkill for this use.   Messages and screen sharing will be sufficient, or the built-in screen sharing client can be used to share the desktop.

    Otherwise, remote access means to find a VPN and a VPN server and probably configure dynamic DNS to allow you to get the IP address of the remote site, and probably all operating in a gateway of firewall box you have acquired for the remote site.   Modems will probably have to be moved in their mode bridged, that leads them to the gap and allows your gateway box control liaison network without NAT clutter it.  ISPS are only material if they block the access of particular network involved, or do not allow the modem to be toggled in bridged mode.

  • I gave remote access to a scam.  What should I do?

    I was on my computer when I got a message saying that my computer has a virus.  I couldn't use the mouse, or close the session.  My system froze.  I was told to call the number on the screen.  When I did I gave them remote access.  Pretty quickly, I knew it was a scam but they dial for a few minutes.  Should I be worried?  The scam was supported IT Aspire.

    Completely erase your hard drive and he re-partition. Reinstall a new copy of OS X. change all of your passwords. Report it to your banks and credit card companies. You can just for the re - issue new credit cards.

    A good rule to follow: If you don't know what is on the other end of a web link, then don't click it. There is no real viruses affecting a Mac, as update you OS X means that you should go to El Capitan to protect against the latest RansomWare - KeRanger.

    The following comes from user stevejobsfan0123. I made minor changes to adapt to this presentation.

    Difficulty of pop-ups in browser that support Safari.

    Common pop - ups include a message saying that the Government has taken over your computer and you pay release (often called "Moneypak"), or a false message saying that your computer has been infected and you need to call a number of tech support (sometimes claiming to be Apple) to get it to be resolved. First of all, understand that these pop-ups are not caused by a virus and that your computer has not been assigned. This "hack" is limited to your web browser. Also understand that these messages are scams, so don't pay not money, call number, or provide personal information. This article will give an overview of the solution to remove the pop-up window.

    Quit Safari

    Usually, these pop-ups will not go by clicking 'OK' or 'Cancel '. In addition, several menus in the menu bar may become disabled and show in grey, including the option to leave Safari. You'll probably force quit Safari. To do this, press command + option + ESC, select Safari, press on force quit.

    Relaunch Safari

    If you restart Safari, the page will reopen. To avoid this, hold the "Shift" key when opening Safari. This will prevent windows since the last time that Safari was running since the reopening.

    It will not work in all cases. The SHIFT key must be maintained at the right time, and in some cases, even if done correctly, the window is displayed again. In these circumstances, after force quit Safari, turn off Wi - Fi or disconnect Ethernet, depending on how you connect to the Internet. Then restart Safari normally. He'll try to reload the malicious Web page, but without a connection, it will not be able to. Leave this page by entering a different URL, i.e. www.apple.com and try to load it. Now you can reconnect to the Internet and the page that you entered is displayed rather than the malicious.

  • Remote access? 'other' user appears in the Excel file

    My husband uses Excel 2008 for Mac on his mini. Today, it has created a new Excel file, and when he went to save him, he did not allow him to do so. After I told him to try to "Get Info", he saw that there was another user listed as having access to 'wheel' (FIRST HMMMM?). None of us use this name. The permissions are set to read and write.

    I could, even if I don't have to open the lock, allowing to delete this user and change the permissions of the "Everybody". Always without having to open the lock.

    I open the lock using his password, made another change, saved and closed the file.

    I went in its security and confidentiality and found that the Firewall was turned off. I turned who, without having to open the lock. (DON'T know WHY I didn't have to open the lock.-SECOND HMMMM?)

    So, I changed his password, all closed and restarted the computer.

    No more 'wheel' on what it is, yet. The permissions are correct so far.

  • Remote access to SMU-8101

    Hello.

    I have a 1071-SMU-PXI chassis with controller SMU-8101 (Windows XP) and SMU-4496 module. Also, I NI DAQmx installed on the controller operating system and on another computer in the same network.

    Is it possible to acquire measurement data of this ADC on network computer using remote access? Or this feature is available only if you use real-time controllers?

    Thank you.
