At that point, the app will prompt you for the passcode. Enter the code and continue then at that point you should now be screen sharing our parent’s Mac! Whenever our parents have some problems or need some support. Mar 01, 2015 I'm super comfortable on Windows, but struggle on the Mac where I have set up TV and am trying to connect remotely to help my aging parents before it's too late. It's a struggle for them to get to TV and tell me the password each time. Would love to get back to whatever we had when I could log in with a (semi-?) permanent password.
