Problems with Apple Remote Access

The Remote Access Setup control panel won’t open.

m Make sure that AppleTalk is turned on in the Chooser.
m If you still can’t open the control panel, reinstall the Apple Remote Access

software.

The modem is not listed in the Remote Access Setup control panel.

m Reinstall the modem software. If that doesn’t help, then reinstall the Apple

Remote Access software.

m Contact the modem manufacturer to see whether your modem can use the

settings for another type of modem.

The modem didn’t dial the phone number.

m Check that the phone cord is plugged into the computer or modem and into

a working phone line.

m Try dialing the number again. Sometimes there is a temporary connection

problem.

m Quit the program and restart it. Sometimes this procedure solves

temporary problems with the modem.

m Another program may be using the modem. Quit all other programs that

use the modem.

m Try using another communications program. If that works, the problem

may be in the Apple Remote Access software. Reinstall the software.
