The first app should be Microsoft Remote Desktop.Ĭlick the Get button and once downloaded, click the Open button. You’ll want to go to the App Store and search for remote desktop. Now that you are setup on the PC side, it’s time to get remote desktop installed on your Mac. It’s definitely more complicated, but totally doable. You’ll also have to setup dynamic DNS so that you can use a DNS name rather than your public IP address, which changes often, to connect. It’s worth noting that if you want to connect to your computer from outside the local network, you’ll have to open the ports on the router manually and forward those ports to your PC. Once you have the info you need, go ahead and close the window.
