1. Yes it works on the touch!
2. It is freeware.
WoooooooHOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes I can't wait until I have enough money to buy the iTouch (Not long about 3 weeks!!)
mines says cannot connect to server i have allowed the program access through the firewall but nothing, i have a netgear router can someone explain to me how you do the above?
i'm on my routers page but what do i do now?
cheers for that will have a look, but isn't this supposed to work on the net aswell and not just through your network was reading about it and seems theres problems with lepoard so i might be out of luck, it looks very cool
just read the thread again it only works with tiger
I'm running Tiger and having the problem which shouldn't be happening I guess according to some others on this
You have leopard so it wont work with yours
The problem is Leopard's firewall
Apple changed the firewall in Leopard and took out the option to forward ports. Even if you put the application in the exceptions list, it still blocks the ports. If you allow all connections, then it should work. I have this same problem with my EyeTV wifi streaming; if I turn off the firewall it connects to my iPhone just fine, but with the firewall on I can't connect. Apple really needs to give us options to forward our ports like we could in Tiger.

I got it working on Leopard. At least media streaming, desktop and camera. Other ones I don't use, so I don't know. I have firewall in leopard and port mapping on my router.
How do you have the firewall set? It only works for me if I 'allow all incoming connections'. If I use the other two options it doesn't work.
I'm kind of drunk right now, so I will post more clear concise explanation later, maybe, but for now, this is how I have iPhone Remote on Leopard working even from outside network.
On Leopard, i have the option for specific application (don't remember exact name, but the third one on firewall setting under security pane) allowing iPhone Remote.
If you have your own wifi setup and got iPhone remote working in your network, but not outside, then it's your router setting problem, not firewall in your machine itself.
For port forwarding on router: I can only tell you my setup.
I have airport express v6.3 for home wifi, mac and xp, sharing public ip, and AE provides local ip to each machine. What unclear to me first (cuz I never read manual ;p) was that even though you already setup port mapping under "advanced", you still have to go NAT tab under "Internet" and activate port forwarding. If I remember correctly, I don't think this was the case for the previous version. Here I have 5010 and 5012 forwarded to my local ip.
Getting long... 2 more thing. I have specified local ip on my mac, so it always the same, this might not be needed, AE gives the same ip most of the time. And another thing, get domain for your ip if you have dynamic ip from provider. I have SBC, which is dynamic ip, so I use DynDns.
After all this, still don't work, then I don't know... Maybe try reinstallin iPhone Remote. My AoE III (anyone?) stops woking after changing port mapping/firewall setting, and only way I figured to fix it is reinstalling after all those setup. This wasn't the case in Tiger. So it might help in iPhone Remote too.

We can't release anything significant until apple makes 2.0 official but our app will be a combination sdk/webkit and server side upnp server. We started this project last year using javascript and pure java and found performance wll lacking with the iphone's built in safari. We hope to mix objective c++ / web together to access our backend server. We are using spring with tomcat which handles multitasking really well and on the web side a custom ui built using icefaces components.
Ui prototype on our site.

Is there any reason why when I first try and put the URL in it goes on for a long time, eventually stopping because the server stopped responding? I know this happened for other people but it seems like they had already accessed the site but had problems with a specific feature. This happens for Signal as well as Telekinesis.
