normanicus Posted December 19, 2010 Share Posted December 19, 2010 Hello, I work at home using Windows XP Pro and often have to update a Filemaker solution on a remote Apple computer running OS X. The solution is too complex (or poorly optimised) to make remotely logging into the Filemaker solution itself usable. Apple Remote Desktop server costs $300, a service I get free when doing similar on a remote Windows machine. As alternatives I have tried 'TeamViewer' and, a while back, various free VNC tools. Unfortunately, none of these are Filemaker 'intelligent' as RDC to Apple RDC. They can't transfer FM content in the clipboard. TeamViewer, while powerful and free, does not even translate the control key to the Apple key making even simple tasks like cutting and pasting text a pain. Are there any free remote desktop tools that allow all Filemaker's cut and paste ability between machines? Norman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ocean West Posted December 19, 2010 Share Posted December 19, 2010 You can try LogMein.com? They have a free option.. Its been years since i tried Timbuktu but it is cross platform and if memory serves can copy & paste - but again it's been years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
