I just plugged my Mac Pro but don't have an USB keyboard with me. I'll be able to get my hands on it on Monday.
Meanwhile, is there a way I could enter my password ? ... Or anything. My MP is not on my network (too far). I have a MBP and an iPhone at my disposition. Edit : Got a time capsule too. Could I use it to get my network on my Mac pro ? Like getting the wireless and plug it to the MP with ethernet... Could I then enable the automatic logon with a remote acces from my MBP ? |

You could stare at the login window and really concentrate.... No, I mean really concentrate, and just maybe you can enter the characters telepathically!!!

Already tried... didn't work.
What about plugin my MBP with an ethernet cable ? Could I access my MP ? Don't really know how to... Do I share the wifi through the ethernet to get it on the network ? That's what I trying right now but my MP doesn't show up in the finder and I don't know how to get the assigned IP to it... like to manually connect to with cmd+k / afp://unknowIP Dave Mustaine :"God created whammy bars for people who don't know how to solo." |

It seems like there would be an app that allows you to use your iPhone as a trackpad/keyboard, but my Google-Fu isn't working very well tonight.

One such program is called Mobile Mouse. However, afaik, all of these programs require you to install server software on the Mac. Which would be impossible since you can't log in.

Yeah I'm using it on my Media Center. Made a comment on it in the iPhone app thread. Great app seriously.
It's just that I would need to desactivate the logon screen first to automatically login. Seems I'll have to wait 'till monday Dave Mustaine :"God created whammy bars for people who don't know how to solo." |

Would screen sharing work? IIR I could change users remotely using screen sharing on my MacBook Pro.
Edit: Likely not enabled by default... Probably up a creek |
