  • @JessePeets YOU ARE STUPID! STUPID STUPID STUPID

  • Thanks you, very well explained :D

  • Thanks MAn!

    didnt need to port foward luckly

  • I have a problem! I'm using Windows 7 and every time I try to connect it shows a screen within a screen and that 1000 times! HELP!!

  • devin12mb great vid but I have a few questions: When I use tightvnc who else is seeing this i mean how safe or private is it? Next question can i work on both PCs at the same time? Last question how would I know if someone is viewing my PC?

    TY again, Marc

  • ok first off there would be hundreds of thousands of PC's out there with the same IP as Devins on their LAN (Local Area network) . His is behind a Firewall and router using NAT (Network address translater) so hackers can't see his IP. Only the one his ISP gave him for his internet connection is visible from the outside.

  • @dirkmac78 Thank You.

  • hie your ip

    hackers have many ways

  • Isn't there a way to view TightVNC just using a web browser?

  • help it says it cant connect after i enter the ip adress

  • um hide your IP man

  • um hide your ip man

    

  • Don't forget to forward the Ports in your Windows Firewall AND in your Router Firewall (if you have one)

  • great! my iphone is connected to the ip and is controlling my computer!

  • Why tight VNC on 2 comnputers?

    You only need 1 pc and 1 ipod/iphone

  • lol should of hidden your ip :P

  • @masterj521 unless your connected to my router, you cant use that IP to connect. its a local IP. no need in hiding it.

  • @devin12mb Actually. If someone gets your ip adress then they can hack into your computer if they are skilled hackers. (many years practice)

  • @Robinfromnorway Then i would say let them have a go at it. Cause i know it isn't possible.

  • @devin12mb That is wrong. It is possible. There is many hackers out there who knows how to to it. 

  • @Robinfromnorway Well, i would love for them to give it a try. i would love to see that in action. Would be a good topic for future video.

  • @devin12mb Okay, its your problem if you don't believe me, but there is possible to hack into your PC if you get someones IP adress.

    It actually happened in Norway a few years ago. Someone got hacked by a guy who knew that method.

  • @Robinfromnorway Yes, someones External IP Not a Local IP. They greatly differ.

  • @masterj521 AND he also have passsworld

  • @masterj521  AND he also have pasworld

  • I try this with my ipod but the thing is just black i cant see my ipod screen. do you know what to do?

  • Llll when i connect to my self it's poping out over 100 times what's that?....

  • hey nice job on the vid man. very nice.

  • do you typ the ip address

  • thx

  • HEY DUDE CAN WE JUST USE THIER IP ADDRESS?

  • how to know the ip address

  • dude can i use dis one over the internet,?, i mean other computer which is not in the local network or same network??? can i controlled other computer through internet using this vnc????? if u know other program pls help[....... thanksss...

  • tightVNC uses ports 5900 and 5800 so you will have to open those ports on your firewall; and if you want to connect to a computer over the internet you will have to setup port forwarding on your router.

  • badass man, thanks for the video. props.

  • it tells me that LOCAL LOOP BACK CONNECTIONS ARE DISABLED! What do i do?

  • hay on vista there are 2 users and when i trying to view the other account it logs out

  • I was able to get it to work once, but now for some reason it doesn't connect anymore ;(

  • This version does not allow file tranfer . you didnt also explain in the las bit what u meant , how save as as this version wont allow me to save ..greate video though

  • @BlackConnectionRec it does allow file transfer, on the viewer window. click the file transfer button. file transfer has to be check off in the server options for it to work.

  • your tutorial really helped me and thanks it really is educational! :)

    guys understand him carefully all the answers are there :)

  • @ZackNeville02 there is a firewall blocking it.

  • it says failed to connect...

  • @thegtagamer23 samw here

  • that when I put the ip address says failed to connect server ..

    I do exactly what you and leave it

  • that when I put the ip address says failed to connect server .. ???

    I do exactly what you and leave it

  • vnc should be installed on both computers?

  • @jeydicee install the server on the computer you want to control, and the viewer on the one to control the server.

  • must the other pc have vnc ? o.O

  • when I put the code on tightVNC it says Local loop-back connections are disabled...what do I have to do??

  • should it be local

    i mean does it only work on local computer

    or i can do with my friend who are in another country

    like he instals in his own pc and i do on mine and we both control each others computer?

    thank you

  • @the147break This only works on local computers. But it's possible to connect to computers in other countries.

  • this isnt working for me men.. i can only view my computer.... how can i get on some one elses.... i already tried the name and stuff but im guessing its the ip address...???

  • wow thanks for the super helpful vid thanx man

  • can you play games through tight vnc?

  • @MaCCeSWE It will probably lag :/

  • @prth92 Depends on the internet up and down speeds. i recommend Team Viewer for that.

  • Thanks alot man, useful vid ;-)

  • So say I have a friend in another state and we like to share pictures and videos and all that and were doing it fine till recently when her computers was being couldn't handle that any more. So with vnc is it possible to see videos (and all other nice things seen in your video) at exactly the same time on both computers? like in a stream? and is it also possible to do one thing on computerA while seeing the other computerB, but the other computerB still being able to go about it's business?

  • Can u make the Remote PC not to change wallpaper when connected to it?

  • Thanks for this post. What if I just like to share printers and transfer folder between Ubuntu and Windows. Is Samba the only choice?

  • Pretty much lol, samba works well for that. oh and Ubuntu has VNC built in ;) just incase you needed it.

  • So if the computer is switched off can i still control it from another computer

  • omg mine anoyin it dont work i type in my ipadress for ipod dats on my ipod and it says connot conect to user and then my ip adress please help me its anoiyn ???

  • I've tried this on my PSP, that worked fine, but now, can i remote control my desktop pc from my laptop( the laptop is bad) and may i play games like GTA IV andf tha on my laptop then?

  • You Are Not Going To Be able To Play Games From the desktop on the laptop with VNC because of VNC's Slow Refresh Rate. It Will Be Very Laggy With Games.

  • noticed that..:P good anyway, espesically when i'm at my cottage

  • so in order to connect to the vnc server, you have to set up port forward on the server PC?

  • Yes. But Only If The Server Is On A Different Network As You.

  • But the same computer im putting the server on had no problem before, i didn't have to port forward, the PC is not on my network either

  • What IP Did The Server Tell you when you hover over the Tight VNC Server? (Like 192.168.0.0)

  • yes something like that , but before i think it was different and it worked

  • 192.168.0.0 is a local IP Adress given by a router. 72.184.000.000 is an example of an external IP. You Can't Get To It Outside Of your network. it just is not possible without port 5900 forwarded to the server. i am making a video on how to forward. it will be uploaded very soon. to help the ones having this problem.

  • oh ok

  • Ok so I am trying to do an lp with a friend using the program and we have tried everything he is still getting failed connecting to server error. I have no firewall up and i used the ip the tight vnc gave me. could someone please help me with this problem?

  • check out ultravnc , its free with many other features

  • thanks so muc for runing this demonstration

    what disadvantages are there over remote desktop?

    also can remote multiple machines ? is it bandwidth intensive? i shall go and find out !! looks great anyhow. :P

    cheers.

  • i got this thing runnig but i can only connect to it if its on my local network. it seems to me that i have to reconfigure my router for a port forwarding.. can you show us how? iwe highly appreciate your help.. thanks..

  • Yes i can if you still want to know how.

  • If you want to connect to the server from outside of your local network you must set up port forwarding in your router.

  • ok great video. thank you very much. but how do you control a computer that dosnt tightvnc on it. is it possible?

  • No. You must have a VNC Server running.

  • thx! :) <3

  • k now can you do this to an unregistered vnc comp? like if i wanted to watch another friend's desktop but didnt want him to know, let me know thanks

    btw great vid

  • This video is perfect. I could not got this TightVNC to work to save my life. The directions that come with the software when you install it are foreign to me. This video got me up and running in literally 3 minutes. Thanks!

  • You Are Very Much Welcome. =)

  • Please HELP... how can you set tightVNC so the server automatictally turns on when I turn on the computer.... THANK YOU

  • Put a short cut in the startup folder

  • thanks Works Great i use it for hacking :p

  • Wake On LAN. But the computer has to be on standby and not completely off

  • You Can't Connect to the same comptuer that is the server from the server

  • Make Sure There is nothing blocking it, Router...Norton..AVG and so on

  • If The Computer is completely off....then nothing is running. So No

  • You Can Not Use The same computer the idea is to Remote Control another computer besides your own, if you did connect to your own Computer running the server with the viewer you would have problems...., im going to make a new video soon

  • Make Sure No Security Software Isn't Blocking It,

    Windows Firewall, AVG, Norton and etc

  • hey very nice video thank you so much

  • if im changing the wallpaper or doing sumthing on another pc by using VNC Viewer then will the person using the server PC will be able to see what im doing on his PC

    Please Reply

  • Yes They Can see everything if they are watching

  • like say if i send the server over msn and they click it can i view/control his pc?

  • ...I dont follow you on that one...? im going to make a video soon to solve everyones problems

  • can u view other ppls pc if they dont have vnc?

  • can you view others if they dont have vnc?

  • Nope, VNC Server has to be installed

    and running

  • Casn you use vnc without internet connection ?

  • You Can Use it without an internet connection, but you must have a High Speed Router at your house, or some way to network your computers

  • hahaha! can you like go to another person's computer by doing what .....what do you have to put it maybe any password or something?

  • local loop-back connections are disabled

    WTF ?

    Can you help meee ?????????????

  • That Means You Are Trying To Connect to your computer from your computer,

  • thanks a lot dude!

  • hey i was wondering...if i want to connect to my brothers pc at any time, do i need to open the vnc server on his pc? is there a way i can get the vnc server to start with windows so i dont hav to open it wen he isnt looking?

  • ok. i can use VNC on any pc in my house with no problem but, when i try to access my sisters pc at her house it fails. why? port forwarding? i understand the port is 5900 but, do i need to do something at my house or hers? and does it matter that we're both running behind routers? please help! sooo frustrated!!!!!

  • thx i didn't know that tightvnc also had to be installed on the other pc. thx a lot

  • how do u connect to a different network using this? i tried looking for a port and i didnt find it and i only get one ip adress.

  • the Port is 5900

  • how do u connect to other servers in a different network? i tried the server ip but it doesnt supply me with a port.

  • Thanks so much for teaching=)!

  • whats this program for

  • when i write it there come a windoe:Failed connecting to server (...)

    why???

  • Either The IP Adress is wrong or there is a firewall blocking it

  • ive got the same problem.... but im sure that it is the right ip and i have no firewalls or "anti virus programs " running... do you know what it could be else ? : )

  • Did you tried viewing from a mac?

  • Yes, I Will Make a video on that soon

  • jajja great video!! you are the best i try it and its play very well jajaja thanks also y try it with my sister jajaja

  • VNC server whats the meaning of that and how do u get it??? plz help me

  • The Link To Download Is on The Left

    The Meaning of it: To Be able to control you computer with out sitting in front of it

  • zone porridge....

  • Next question, why when I VNC into my pc at home, I can't see the right click features on my pc or hte minimize, maximize, or close button on the right corner of each window?

  • Is It Vista?

    If It Is The Buttons are on another video layer

  • Does this work on Vista and Vista-XP combination where server sits on Vista? Urgent!!! Thank you.

  • Yes, You Must Let VNC Get Past The Vista Firewall And Windows Defender

  • great vidio man havent tested it yet but good sound and evrything 5/5 :D

  • Great Thanks =)

  • ...every comp has one ip add, rii? i mean my account, mai dads, bros, ect. have the same ip... but heres the thing. when i am logged on there and then access my, say, dads account, my desktop from the other comp pops up and then dissappears with the program. how can i fix it so i can spy on whoever uses the other comp?

  • lol im not shure if you recieved my questioning comment, like a couple minutes ago, well here it is again =(

    since i know that u have to install both  VNC in both computers, well thats not a problem, but the real problem is, can i someon prevent that "host's" compter from knowing i installed a VNC, especially the fact that the VNC icon pops up on the bottom right hand corner(by the clock) where he/she can close the VNC = no fun... help? =(

  • you would have edit the source code of VNC for that

  • okay, so dis means i have to install the VNC on my "hosts" computer as well....tats not a problem, but how do i prevent them from knowing that they have a VNC installed or the fact that it's icon is active on their lower right hand corner of the screen where it says their IP(which means they can close the program = no fun) =( help?

  • Heh, in my school the admins use VNC took patrol certain computers of pupils to see if they're not playing any games or doing illegal stuff. The VNC is pretty much protected, but I think I found a way round it. (can't close it in task manager) Here is my question: Do they completely lose control when you type the following in CMD?

    CD C:\Program Files\TightVNC

    WinVNC -kill

    Please reply, I might have another question :)

  • it depends on what version they use

    if its running it should be in the task man under the "processes" tab as "vnc.exe" or somthing like that, you can also block the program in the windows firewall on the computer =)

  • I can't get it to work i said

    failed to connect to server

  • Make Sure You Have It Allowed into your firewall, also that you have the correct ip addresses

  • This Program is awsome i am using it for the psp asewell

  • wow man, thank you. you helped me a lot. i needed help for my sister who lives in Korea but i live in USA. but it was really hard to tell her what to do by phone or mic. She asks too much and it solved every problems.

  • Your Welcome Im Glad That i could be a help, if you or anyone else has trouble with anything or needs help dont be scared to ask. =) im here to help

  • oh but i gotta trouble, when position my mouse on tightvnc's icon i'm getting 2 ips but my sister's getting 1 ip. Why she is getting just one ip? she was just getting 192.168.x.x She said she is in hotel now and isn't that possible if she has like that internet?

  • i not control freends pc

  • Is there a way to set the computer you are controlling accept automaticly, so the box doesnt pop up?

  • Do You Mean No Password Box Pop-up?

  • Im not sure, When you connect to a computer, the computer you are trying to connect to has to accept it. Is there a way is accepts automaticly, so like you are spying on it? Because I want to freak out my sister, make her think that the computer is haunted ;)

  • Nice video:D

  • Is it somehow possible to connect to a computer that is not turned off? And how do you do that port forward thing?
