Click through that, and you're done with installation. This will set in place a simple application download and install. An email account is all you need to set up an account, at which point you'll be asked if the computer you're logging into is one you'd like to remotely control. Installing LogMeIn is a thankfully simple process. Then again, it's intended as a companion piece of software to an existing LogMeIn account, rather than a tool in its own right, and at least at the time of writing the iPhone's Safari browser wasn't capable in our testing of just logging in via the web interface. At AU$36.99, it's pricey for an iPhone app, and it's interesting to note that its feature set essentially mirrors that of the free app, rather than the Pro app. Then there's LogMeIn Ignition for iPhone.
LOGMEIN PRO 2 FOR MAC
The interesting catch here is that while the free client is available for Mac and Windows computers, Pro is to date a Windows-only option. The Pro client offers the same remote control facility with the added features of remote printing, remote file transfer via drag and drop, drive mapping, remote sound and file synchronisation. If you don't see that pop-up window, assume something bad's happening to your system. When you log into a remote computer with LogMeIn, you'll assume control of it, with a small dialog appearing in the top right-hand corner of the remote PC's screen informing them that you're at work. It's worth noting that the key word here is "control". The free client is available for PCs and Macs, and offers a very simple suite of remote desktop control features. There's the basic LogMeIn Free client, the paid LogMeIn Pro client and the paid LogMeIn Ignition iPhone client. The range of products that LogMeIn offers can be a little daunting at first, but ultimately there's really only three that extend into the SOHO/consumer space.
