Enable VNC Server in Mac OS X
Enable VNC Server in Mac OS X
This is so easy I cant believe its taken me this long to find it. This works for Snow Leopard and Lion as far as I know, though Ive only tested it on Lion.
Go this route:
- System Preferences
- Sharing
- Choose "Screen Sharing" and check the box to turn it on
- Click "Computer Settings..."
- Enable the "VNC views may control screen with password:" option and give it a password. Password length is limited to 8 characters.
Now you can connect to and control your Mac from your favorite VNC application, including free versions like Mocha VNC (Lite) for iPhone or Chicken of the VNC for Mac. I personally use Mocha VNC and it is a very good VNC app for my casual use. It is surprisingly fast over my home network Wireless-G iPhone 3GS to Gigabit-connected early-2007 iMac, and it works perfect with my iMacs dual monitor setup. Its the best Spotify "remote" Ive found yet.
