How to fix the ARD toolbar buttons/functions missing from Screen Sharing under OS X 10.5.5
I’d like to thank a couple of my readers for telling me how to remedy the problem of the ARD Screen Sharing toolbar function hack that can no longer be applied once one upgrades to OS X 10.5.5.
The solution is glaringly obvious and I’m a bit annoyed I didn’t spot it myself.
Just use Time Machine and search for the Screen Sharing application, located in /System/Library/CoreServices/Screen Sharing.app and return to an older version of the app!
You gotta love Apple for handing you the solution on a plate.
Alternatively, dig out your Leopard DVD and pull it off there.
You’ll apparently get bugged by an upgrade screen.
I had read that Apple were trying to cut down on “Frankenbuilds” using software from different versions of the OS, but I guess this is still OK.
I’d like to try this, but since I have a nice, fully functional ARD 3.2 installed there’s not much point for me!
Still, I may try it one day. Let me know how you get on with these tips.
