Screenshare and control

Does anyone know how can I screen share and control someone else’s screen from mac to mac. My sisters really sucks at computer so she calls me often if she can’t fix anything. I end up wasting hours on phone telling her what to click and what not. Do you know a way of how I can screenshare and control? I am talking about two different Mac, 500 miles apart, different network.

I have Yosemite - latest version. I have read and googled before posting question but nothing worked. If someone has a proven method, please let me know

Gracias

TeamViewer for Mac.
I have used windows version.

Re: Screenshare and control

Skype has also option of screen sharing. But you can not control other computer through it.

Re: Screenshare and control

thanks, is Team Viewer free? any privacy concerns with that?

Re: Screenshare and control

Don't answer her phone.

Re: Screenshare and control

It is free for all non-commercial users. This is peer to peer to connection and I believe it does not involve other servers. Connection between two computer is secured by SSL (secure socket layer) and RSA encryption method is used and 256 bit encoding is used in each session. Your data is safe, sniffer can not decode it.

I wish i could hang up on her. I don't want her to hang up on me when I call her.

And thanks Mahool, no idea what you just said but sounds technical. Just downloaded it.

You sister also need to download same software. Then she can tell you id of her you can access her machine from your machine.
