Best Remote Access Apps For Mac ComparedLogMeInRemotePCSolarWindsEasy To Use✔️✔️✔️Mac Desktop App✔️✔️Web AppMobile Apps✔️✔️Unlimited Users✔️Enterprise Plan Only✔️No. Despite the name isn’t just for Windows PCs. For Mac remote desktop is an extremely user-friendly, slick and straight forward screen sharing tool for Macs and iOS devices. This includes TeamViewer Monitoring & Asset Management which not only provides remote access to Macs or PCs, but also monitors system critical aspects and provides easy IT inventory tracking.TeamViewer is extremely easy to setup. All you need to do is install the TeamViewer client on both machines, enter the ID of the computer you want to connect to and that’s it.There’s very little configuration of ports or firewalls as everything is handled automatically by the setup wizard.Once installed, you simply ask the person you want to connect to for their Partner ID to establish a connection. Alternatively, you can give someone your partner ID and password to allow them to connect to you.TeamViewer can easily be used as an RDP client for Mac and is ideal for those that want to give remote technical help to friends or family or those that want to have more fun when gaming with friends.It can also be used as a tool to host online meetings instead of using Google Hangouts or Skype.
Although Mac users are well catered for when it comes to DJ apps, there is some DJ software that is still Windows only and not available for Mac. Don’t be fooled by sites that offer a “free download” for any of these titles – they do not exist on Mac.
IanHiI am currently trialing a free copy of Royal TSX using a Mac Mini to connect to 2 different Windows servers one running server 2003 (running an old version of filemaker which we are upgrading over 6 months) and one running server 2012 (our recent replacement which will take over the filemaker once upgraded). We had been using Microsoft remote desktop on all other macs and PC’s needing access to these servers but found incompatibility between Mac OS versions and the different server OS’s.Back to Royal TSX on my Mac mini, I was wondering if any other users had trouble with copying and pasting text. I might select and copy from an email on the 2012 server and then go to the 2003 server and paste into filemaker but find the text isn’t on the cl;ip board. This seems to get progressively worse over the course of a day.I have also experienced crashes with TSX – “Warning (a) Decryption using Standard RDP Security mechanisms (section 5.3.6) failed.
(b) Session key creation using Standard RDP Security mechanisms (section 5.3.5) failed”This morning I had a prompt for an upgrade to TSX and went through the install. When I next launched TSX and connected to my connections I had the following warning – The plugin you’re trying to use is incompatible with the Royal TSX version you’re currently using! If you choose to continue you might encounter bugs and crashes.
Are you sure you want to continue? Yes or no?I assume the upgrade would have updated the plugin as well. I don’t get an option on how to fix.Anyway this is some feedback on the Royal TSX product so far.Ian.
