TOPIC

    I used to be able to open Location Manager and select Remote Access from the settings list. If I needed to change either the Remote Access configuration or the Modem configuration, I would click the Edit button. This would present me with a dialog box with buttons labeled Open Modem and Open ARA. Now these buttons are dimmed. What happened?


DISCUSSION

    This is a known issue. Remote Access, versions 3.4 or 3.5, changed the Remote Access and Modem control panels from type cdev to type APPC. This change was not taken into account in the Location Manager.

    Workaround: Open Remote Access and Modem via Control Panels in the Apple menu.

    Note: If your computer supports hot function keys, you can program the function keys to open Remote Access and Modem. See "Adjusting function key behavior" in the "Adjusting the keyboard" section of Mac Help.
