Michael Callahan: Hi! This is Mike Callahan, Dr. File Finder. Welcome to your butterscotch.com tutorial on how to set up your Mac to accept virtual network connections or VNC. So, I'm here on the Mac, we are going to open up the system preferences, you can do it from the doc icon, you could do it from the apple menu by clicking on that and selecting system preferences. Now, here on system preferences we are going to double click on sharing, I'm we are going to go down to remote management, check that when we do it, it brings up a box with some options. All local users can access this computer to observe generate reports and I'm going to check all the things that I want, Open and quit applications, change settings, delete and replace, send text, restart and shutdown, and copy the items, and then we'll say, OK.
Now over here, it says allow access for all users, well I don't want all users, so I'll say only these users. Remote management is now on you can manage your computer by using this IP address, which is what you would put into a VNC program like the one the iPhone, there is a tutorial for that. Click here for computer settings, you see you are going to have show Remote management status in the menu bar, anyone may request for rest to control the screen VNC viewers may control the screen with the password. And I've already put the password in there.
Click OK, and then options here are the things that we've said that we can do. If you wanted to give someone else access, but now let them do everything then you would change these and limit these options. So now, we are set there, we close this and now the Mac is ready and able to accept VNC virtual network connections. And that's all that is to it.
