Q: Can't control Lion macmini with ARD 3.5.1 client
Title says it,
I can't control my just with Lion upgraded Macmini with ARD 3.5.1 client. I have also upgraded to ARD 3.5 on my snow leopard macbook pro. Before the upgrade of ARD on my MBP I could control the macmini, now it doesn't even connect/see the Macmini (that was also before I upgraded the macmini client to 3.5.1 BTW)
Neither can I use VNC from my iPhone anymore. Before I could wake up the macmini even on WiFi when using the macbook pro or iPhone/iPad.
So it seems an issue with client 3.5.1 on teh Lion Macmini.
anyone else has this issue?
thx

Hi Folks,
I was having the same issue and was banging my head against the wall.
The fix seems to be pretty simple, it looks like if you go to the sharing preference pane on the client machine, and then uncheck and check again the Remote Management option the screen control feature comes back to life.
I hope this helps, it seems to have solved the issue on 2 of my client machines so far.
