Another of the many great features, especially for me as a mac doc, is the ability to share ones screen with other users over iChat. This means that a client in Hong Kong can get my assistance, even if I'm in New York. I simply take over their screen, and poke around with their computer. Over the internet. But all is not bright and jolly. Sometimes it just doesn't work!
The reasons herefore took me a few tries to figure out. And I actually had to look this one up. Thank god for google and inquisitor.
Seemingly QuickTime settings is to blame. SOMETIMES the settings to stream has to be altered for screen sharing to work.
Go to System Preferences from the Apple Menu, click QuickTime and choose "streaming". Set it to 1.5 Mbit and NOT automatic.
Thaaaat should do it! :)
