Have you been thinking there must be an easier way than trudging all the way to work to access your files and applications on your work computer? Well, there is! How about trying remote access to your computer? It’s a very simple process and can save you a ton of time, money, and save you from a lot of headaches in the future.

Getting remote access to a computer is as easy as going to a website, signing up, and downloading the software. You’ll pay a monthly fee, but the benefits are numerous and the cost is easily justified by saving money on gas and “down time” that is now a thing of the past. Many companies are finding the value in allowing their employees to work remotely, and it only makes sense if you can still get the work done as if you were at work. No matter where you are, you can work as if you are on the at work computer. So if there is a certain software you’ll need, or application, you have access.

Remote access to computer software can give you freedom at work. Now you can be sitting in a lodge in the mountains, a tropical getaway, and never worry about what kind of stuff may be “hitting the fan” at work. Again, productivity can soar as you open your laptop and are immediately transported to work, instead of sitting in traffic for hours on those bad weather days!

Problem solving and team collaboration can’t get any easier with the software. If you have a problem on your computer, you can invite someone else in to see exactly what you are doing right or wrong. Invite the whole team in to look over the project. Invite the client onto your computer so you can walk them through every step. The possibilities for making work easier are numerous.

When searching online, you’ll notice there are a lot of choices. Companies like Team Viewer, Log Me In, and Go To My PC all have similar products that are of value. Pricing is not too high compared to the value received, there are usually free trials to give it a try as well.

So give it a try! You’ll be able to get more done, from more places, with less stress.

Take a moment to read through our top beginner pitfalls and spare yourself a little frustration in getting to grips with your new software. When you create a new project in QuarkXPress, the New Document window appears. Users new to QuarkXPress will often create a new project and click OK without taking the slightest notice of the settings in the New Project dialogue. Quark keeps the settings from the last project you created. If these are unsuitable for the document you are about to create, adjust the page size, orientation, margin and column guides as needed. Having set margins when creating a new project, many new QuarkXPress users will still feel inclined to set their text and picture boxes inside the margin guides, leaving an extra gap. Remember, the blue outline denote the margin guides not the edges of the page. Normally, the edges of your text boxes will need to be positioned on the margin rather then inside them. Ruler guides are created by dragging the vertical or horizontal ruler onto the page. As well as providing a visual reference, guides can be used to align elements vertically and horizontally by snapping elements to them like a magnet. For example, if the tops of two text boxes are snapped to the same guide, both boxes will be the same distance from the top of the page. Guides are extremely useful aids but, if over-used (as often happens with new users), you end up with a page covered in confusing green lines. Consider using the measurements palette as well: entering the same x measurement for two boxes will align their left edges and the same y measurement will align their tops. When using QuarkXPress, it's often the case that you want to align a new element with something that's already on the page and, if you are fond of using guides for alignment, you will probably drag a guide onto one of the edges of the existing element and then snap the new element to the guide. Bear in mind when you do this, however, that only the second element is actually properly aligned with the guide, since dragging a guide close to an object doesn't snap the object to the guide; only the reverse is true. To have both elements correctly aligned, you will need to also snap the first element to the guide. The automatic text box feature in QuarkXPress can be activated when creating a new project: you just click on the check-box marked "Automatic Text Box". It allows us to go into something approaching word processing mode. It should be used when creating multi-page documents consisting mainly of text such as a report or book. The automatic text box feature is great for long documents. However, you will often see QuarkXPress users activating this option when creating short documents or even documents consisting of a single page. They make the assumption that all the feature does is to save them the trouble of creating a text box. In fact, if the text box ever becomes filled with text (which can easily happen as you experiment with different text formats), a new page is immediately generated and your single page document becomes a two page document. Users new to QuarkXPress will often develop a strange fascination with the text box tool and try to assign it powers that it doesn't in fact possess! For example, they will attempt to edit text by selecting the text box tool and clicking on the text. In fact, the only thing the text box tool can do is to actually create the text box in the first place. Thereafter, the content tool should be used for entering and editing the text. You will also often see new users attempting to edit text or move a picture inside a picture box when the Item tool is highlighted. This is a non-starter since the contents of a box can only be edited with the content tool. Admittedly, most users will eventually realise this if only through trial and error. Another common Item/Content tool error is that new users will often insist on selecting the Item tool when resizing a box: in fact, resizing works fine regardless of whether the Content or Item tool is selected. QuarkXPress newbies will often create more text boxes than they need to (This box is for my heading, this one is for my subheading, and so on...), forgetting that the format of text can be changed as many times as necessary within the same box. Separate text boxes need to be created only where the attributes of different blocks of text cannot be accommodated within the same box: for example, a heading spanning two columns above a two column story. Beginners in QuarkXPress will often spend a lot of time aligning headings within a text box, for example vertically centring, forgetting that, since the box will not print, all that matters is the position of the text itself on the page. A good way of curing this one is to get into the habit of pressing F7 (a shortcut for View - Guides). This keystroke toggles the visibility of the QuarkXPress margin and ruler guides as well as the edges of boxes that have no frames. This means that you are always reminded of which elements will actually be visible when the document prints.
