I live across the country from my mom and I'm getting her a macbook after her eMac just died. I'm getting it shipped to me and then I will set it up for her and put pictures and stuff on it for her.
I would like to make sure I can help her with things remotely when there are problems. I'd like to set up iChat screen sharing on her macbook, so that when I send it to her I can remotely take over her computer. I've never used it before, any advice on what to do? I was thinking of using Hamachi just to ensure that we don't have router issues.
Any advice on the best way to make this seamless? Does anyone use photocasting on iPhoto? I think this might be a good way to share pics with her, but I don't have a .Mac account. Are there other good ways to share data such as files and photos with her?
any help would be greatly appreciated!
thanks,
Chris
