After checking some options and speaking to the fantastic staff at Apple I came across this YouTube video by the guys at Macworld.  Check it out!

How to: Access Your Computer Remotely

DateThursday, August 20, 2009 at 9:00 AM

Has this happened to you: You have a meeting 200kms away and you thought you had all the files you needed on your Laptop but upon arriving at your client you realise there was a file missing?

Or maybe you need to help your slightly less tech savy parents learn how to use Facebook, but they've retired to rural Tasmania, just near the beautiful Freycinet National Park, and you are based in the Central West of NSW (which is 1,507kms away according to Google Maps).

Wouldn't it be good to be able to access your computer remotely from anywhere – FREE.

Well you can!

LogMeIn Free gives you fast, easy remote access to your PC from any computer with an Internet connection. It is available for PCs and Macs and it works cross-platform.

How to: Share your screen

DateThursday, August 13, 2009 at 8:39 AM

Are you needing an economical way to show others what you are doing on your desktop? Have you thought of using Skype?

So you are one of the millions of Skype users but didn't know you could show your callers what you were doing on your screen. This is not for people that need to allow control of their screen to the friend/colleague/tech support guru. It is simply to show the person your calling what you are doing.

How is this of benefit? Just yesterday I needed to ensure that the information I was using to create a recurring subscription in PayPal was what the client wanted. I opened Skype, selected their name in my list of contacts, right-clicked and chose "Share Your Screen". This initiated a voice call with that contact and gave them view of my screen. You can select if you want to give a full view or just a section of your screen.

So the next time you need to just show someone what you are doing on your screen why not try using Skype!
