Touchpad app won't connect

Stevegeraghty

Since moving house I can't get the touchpad app to connect to my mac mini on either my iPad or iPhone,I tried deleting it off the device and reinstalling it through iTunes but still nothing
I could do with a little help

Are you talking about the Logitech TouchMouse app ?

Stevegeraghty

No, here it is

I just installed it there and got it working.
Is your iphone/ipad connected to the same wireless network?

Try restart your device and try again. If it still doesn't work make sure that you've gone to Sharing > Enable Screen sharing > Computer Settings.. > and enabled either of the selections.

Does your mac mini show up in the server list?

The mac mini doesn't show up,it installed fine befor but it just won't now,everything is on the same network

Just walkthrough the sharing setup guide again and see if it will detect your mac mini.

If you don't happen to get it to work try Logitech touchmouse app. I used it up until you posted this thread :P

Went through this guide

OS X 10.4 Tiger and up
Open System Preferences in the Dock or the Apple menu
Click on Sharing
Enable Screen Sharing (named Apple Remote Desktop on Tiger)
Click on the «Computer Settings...» button (named «Access Privileges...» on Tiger)
Enable the «VNC viewers may control...» settings and enter a password, which will be used by TouchPad
Click OK
You're done!


But when I try to click screen sharing the mac says " screen sharing is currently being controlled by the remote management service"
