I don't care about transferring mail messages to the cloud I just want me.com to get mail fir me. I never used mobile me on the web. Oh I checked it once in awhile but never looked at mail or anything on that site. I will probably have to set up a mail account again. I misunderstood and thought the addy would work as long as you had time left on the annual subscription to MobileMe. I knew it was going to disappear, how could you not with all the warnings but since I never used it I thought the addy would be protected until my year was up.
Thanks,
Terry

Just a random comment, but my mind is blown. This morning I got an email from a peripheral member of a little Mac support group I run. She said that her husband had a beautiful web site on MobileMe and now, suddenly, it's GONE!! SHOCK!!
She wants me to fix it.
I really could not believe that, after all this warning. I barely could think of a polite way to answer.

Some people just cannot "connect the dots." You have to sit them down and carefully explain that this change will eliminate their specific website.
Of course, in your situation, such an approach was impossible. Kudos for remaining polite -- I would have been sorely tempted to use sarcasm, if not obscenity.

I understand that while MobileMe is closed and gone that Apple has kept open the ability to transfer data from it to free iCloud.
I don't know how long this transfer extension will be available.

My experience was that eSATA on a MBP was observably and measurably
faster than Firewire, but not by enough of a margin to justify the
added expense and hassle. Had it been full eSATA speed, I probably
would've taken the plunge.
I no longer have an ExpressCard slot and can't remember the exact
numbers, but maybe OWC or Sonnet has info about this?

I record music with friends with GarageBand. I'd like to know if there's such a thing as scrolling software for Mac Lion, where I could place song lyrics in a text program and have it scroll down slowly in order to sing lyrics. I got rid of my printer years ago (have always had problems with printers), so printing out hard copies is not an option. Any suggestions? - thanks

Google "Macintosh teleprompter" and you will get a number of
suggestions. MirrorScript is one which is listed as free. I
downloaded it to see what it's about and to see how it's limited as
freeware, but I have a G5 Mac and it needs a newer version of MacOS
10.5.8. I don't know if Lion is supported, but try it and others that
the search returns.

That was interesting, so I downloaded MirrorScript. It is very simple and works very nicely. You can get it (free) at:
<http://www.freetele
It worked on my system, and has earlier versions if needed to get it to work on other systems.

Christopher,
Thank both you and Jim.
Jim answered what I asked, with a concise answer with loads of meat. You read my mind and answered with what I meant. Kudos to both of you. If I can leave the G4 out of the equations, that is even better. I didn't even think to ask about that, even though I now remember reading about that a couple of years ago.
I have only quickly scanned your instructions and those from the link. I will set it up this evening and, possibly try it out from a local hotspot.
Are there any security issues or possibility of encryption over the internet, that I should be aware of? The data is just personal and not company or government confidential.
I will get back to you, and the list, on how it goes.
Thanks again.

No need for the G4 at all.

Chris, what at the ways to know the IP of the machine you want to connect to? And are you which IP are you speaking of, the IP the web sees or the IP on the LAN?
I have not tried Christopher's suggestion, yet. And I am partitioning this off in my mind as a separate issue, so as not to confuse myself with Christopher's solution.

Ahh, now thats the crux of the issue, knowing the IP address�. If the machine you want to connect to is on a LAN, then it doesn't have a direct I.P. address visible from outside. The router that creates the LAN, and itself provides the connection to the outside world, has the one and only public I.P. address. All traffic has to go via that. Now� there are ways to set up the router, with port forwarding etc., so for some services (VNC for instance) the router forwards all input traffic direct to a particular machine, so it will appear like the I.P. of the router is the machine in question. You'll need to poke around in your router config for that. Even once you have than, you have to deal with the fact that your ISP probably does not give your router the same IP address each time it starts up. So you will also need a way to find this out. Setting this up is a little complicated and probably not worth going down until you have tried easier solutions. (This is one of the main thing services like "Back To My Mac" does for you).
The main point of my reply below was just to correct a comment that "desktop sharing cannot work over a WAN". This in itself is not true, it just is difficult if the machine you are connecting to doesn't have a direct connection to the net.

Okay, that's good to know. But his Drobo IS connected to a router on his private LAN, so my assumption is that he will need to set up VPN to do the sharing he seeks.

I'm still on shaky ground on this, but I believe that Back to my Mac will allow me to see the Shared items, i.e. the Drobo over the internet. I was wrong in that needed to have the G4 involved. What can I say, first-timer mistake.

Okay, that's good to know. But his Drobo IS connected to a router on his private LAN, so my assumption is that he will need to set up VPN to do the sharing he seeks.

The router that creates the LAN, and itself provides the connection to the outside world, has the one and only public I.P. address. All traffic has to go via that. Now∑ there are ways to set up the router, with port forwarding etc., so for some services (VNC for instance) the router forwards all input traffic direct to a particular machine, so it will appear like the I.P. of the router is the machine in question. You'll need to poke around in your router config for that.
In Airport Utility version 6.1, it's under the Network tab, in the Port Settings section. You click the "+" sign and under Description, choose a service. I am guessing that in this case, the service would be "Remote Login - SSH," which automatically sets itself to forward traffic on port 22. You would just have to fill in the private IP address of your device, and click Save, then update the Airport.
> Even once you have than, you have to deal with the fact that your ISP probably does not give your router the same IP address each time it starts up. So you will also need a way to find this out. Setting this up is a little complicated and probably not worth going down until you have tried easier solutions. (This is one of the main thing services like "Back To My Mac" does for you).
DynDNS.com will give you an English name for your router, and will keep it mapped to whatever IP address the ISP assigns to your Airport router. And it really isn't too hard to set up. That way, you can use that English URL instead of the IP address to connect remotely to your router.

Okay, I'll give it a try even though it does say it does not work with iMacs. I think he intends it mainly for portables, just as he says: for use in coffee shops and the like. But I'll try.

Otto, no, at least in Lion that does not work. Something was changed, because the various startup sound dimmers I have tried all say either that they don't work in Lion (or, in one case, that it doesn't work on iMacs). I just tried your method just in case, but with Sound set to nothing, and mute checked, I still got the full startup chime.
Very frustrating.

thank you, dan.

opinion on
an eSATA to hook up to the RAID (for performance).
seems like i am perceived as awfully dumb, or i have stepped on

last first, i gave you the speeds of the place that will install the
eSATA.
i mentioned the MDP and change of monitors because that's what i want,
as part of an upgrade plan.
YOU wrote: "I'm not sure what you want. If you want to connect a new
display to your
iMac, then eSATA won't do it"
like i didn't know that? but, it is possible by installing in at OWC
(who ruined my MDP port, did you catch that?)
and which is now being repaired by Apple. a iMac can have a eSATA, and
connect to a RAID performance.
i MENTIONED that, and you and others missed, didn't read it, or just
dismissed me.
we are not talking about others. just you and dan (who is ever more
graceful than you or me) and brigand
whose name i won't mention.
so,
a big grin across the pond to you, Big O.
