Access your PC/MAC from your iPhone/iPad?

Seems silly I know but lets say you left an important presentation on your home laptop or you were in the middle of updating and wanted to check the progress. You can access your PC/Mac straight from your iPhone.

There are several apps out there that work and some that costs money. I used Go to My PC and their free trial for this post.

• Obviously make sure that your pc/mac has the software on the computer that is needed to remote in. http://gotomypc.com/
• Download the iPhone App: Go to the APP Store 

• Search, Enter Go to MyPC, Select install then open  

• Login to the app

• Select your PC/Mac

• Sign into your PC/Mac

• Navigate as you normally would.

iCloud and Apple ID

Remember when dealing with the iCloud you want your own personal apple id to keep from getting your information mixed with other members of your family.

HOWEVER in the App Store and iTunes Store in your phone you all can use the same Id this allows your to share music, apps, movies, tv shows etc without having to pay again.


In settings you will see two sections one that says iCloud and another that says iTunes and Store.

iCloud, iMessage and FaceTime all need to be your personal Id to keep from getting everyone else's message, FaceTime calls etc.

iTunes and app stores is where you can all have the same Id.
