This guide provides a list of some of the best LogMeIn free alternatives and paid alternatives to help you choose the best one for you.įor those who don’t have time to read the full list, I found SolarWinds® Dameware® Remote Support (DRS) to be the best LogMeIn alternative available. Although it might seem like LogMeIn has a near monopoly on the market, some competitive contenders can provide you with a suitable LogMeIn replacement.
#INSTALL LOGMEIN ON THIS COMPUTER HOW TO#
Now my only question is how to remove every trace of LogMeIn from both of my Macs.LogMeIn has been in widespread use for some time now, but many of you are looking for a change. A website is asking me to provide my iBook admin username and password? No way.
#INSTALL LOGMEIN ON THIS COMPUTER PASSWORD#
Returning to my browser, I'm at a LogMeIn login screen from asking me for my iBook user name and password - HUGE RED FLAG.
#INSTALL LOGMEIN ON THIS COMPUTER INSTALL#
When I tried connecting to my iBook, the site encouraged me to install a browser plug-in. Then I switched to my desktop Mac to see what screen sharing was like. (Along the way, Little Snitch reported numerous links back to the mothership - second small red flag.)

I created my account at and finished the iBook setup. On the first launch it wanted to updated from 4.0.966 to 4.0.994 - first small red flag. I downloaded the "latest" version from and installed it on my iBook. It seemed like the universe was telling to to give it a try.
This morning, Macworld Member Benefit delivered a LogMeIn ad to my Inbox. Yesterday a friend suggested LogMeIn as an alternative to VNC for screen sharing. They also offer 2 factor authentication when I log in to my account.įor this and many more reasons I don t have time to add here I recently upgraded my account to the LMI Central service which I would recommend to any tech or someone who has a lot of machines to support on many OPN. LMI uses a full 256bit AES encrypted tunnel between my machine and the "target". Now let's talk about the security of the product. As a work around if I need to transfer a file I just boot up iChat or Google Docs and then use that as a go between, not a real headache.

If I were willing to pat for the Pro version I would also be able to do file transfers and the pro client is still cheaper the paying for TB2. This is with just the "Free" version of the client. Mac and soon Linux) from my Mac, iPad or even iPhone. While I use ARD when I need some additional Apple related feature I mostly use LMI because I can work on any type of machine (Windows. I have also spent a lot of time comparing the other products like ARD, Timbuk2 and Go2MyPC and with out any hesitation I can tell you it's the best. As someone who spend a lot of time working on "OPN" (Other Peoples Networks) I could not live with out this useful tool. With out a doubt the best support system out there for a tech. This didn't start until I upgraded to 4., but even after trying to downgrade back to, the problem persists, so something is not being cleared. I opened a ticket #02971799, after a few email exchanges, Support promptly closed the ticket with no other explanation other than due to my not being a Pro user, support was not provided (ignoring the fact that if this is a bug, it probably exists in the Pro version too).Īnyone else having this issue? There are some references on the web that some other people who have looked into this feel it is an issue with the client not being signed properly relative to Gatekeeper/Sandbox, etc, hence on startup, OS X feels it isn't trusted, despite the Firewall setting, and wants reconfirmation.

After each reinstall, the pop up stops for a few boots, and then reappears.ĭue to this problem, I can't boot up remote unattended because user input is required at the host to confirm the pop up, otherwise the connection is blocked. I have uninstalled and resinstalled 3 times. Yes, LogMeIn is already Allowed in Firewall, and always has been.I have researched this, steps I've already taken:ġ) Yes, LogMeIn is already Allowed in the OS X Firewall, and always has been.Ģ) LogMeIn is Allowed all connections in Little Snitch, and always has been.ģ) Per an old thread from 2010 about the exact same problem, the recommendation in that thread was to uninstall and reinstall. Since installing this on boot up I receive a OS X pop up confirmation EVERY time at boot asking to allow incoming connections to LogMeIn. (note this is later than the one posted here on MacUpdate).
