Blown away by how different my old laptop feels. My mid-2012 Macbook Air feels like a brand new machine after replacing my failing Apple SSD with this one. Honestly shocked. It took LESS THAN 10 minutes to BOTH replace the drive and reinstall OS X on this new SSD.
When you’re working with different Macs, it is a hassle to move from one computer to another just to complete simple tasks. For example, printing a document on a different Mac means copying the file on your computer first, then logging into that other Mac to print it from there. This happens when the file can’t be opened using your Mac or the app required to launch the file is outdated.
Copying the file to another computer is too troublesome, especially if it involves a lot of files. Fortunately, Apple has made it easier to control another Mac on the same network using AppleScripts and Remote Apple Events. Thanks to these technologies, Mac users can now access, launch apps, and perform basic tasks remotely. Users don’t have to get up from their seats just to listen to iTunes, send a message using the Messages app, or send an email to contact.

Remote access is useful if you have two or more Macs at home or in the office. Although you can remotely control another Mac on the same network using the Shared feature, using AppleScript commands and the AE Server is a lot faster. Plus, you don’t need to open the Shared screen feature to do so.
What is the AE Server?
If you’ve noticed the AE Server running in the background and you’re not familiar with this feature, you’re probably asking yourself: what is the AE server on my Mac?
Pro Tip: Scan your Mac for performance issues, junk files, harmful apps, and security threats
that can cause system issues or slow performance.

The AE Server, also known as the AppleEvents Server, handles the Remote Apple Events on macOS. This enables applications on other Macs to send Apple Events to the local computer. This might seem complicated, but it is actually a lot simpler than it sounds.
The AppleScript, which is the built-in user-level scripting system on macOS, allows Mac users to automate repetitive tasks, extend the apps’ abilities, and even create stand-alone apps using a relatively simple language. The AppleScript communicates with macOS and the target individual applications using a simple messaging system called Apple Events.
What the AE Server does is to receive and execute the AppleScript and send it to it another Mac computer. Sending the AppleScript is not enough to perform the task, it should be approved by the receiving computer through the Remote Apple Events.
Your Mac can accept Apple Events from applications running on other Mac computers. Apple Events are tasks being performed on macOS, such as open this document or print this document. With Remote Apple Events switched on, an AppleScript running on another Mac can remotely control your local Mac or perform tasks, such as printing documents or opening applications.

For Macs running on macOS Catalina, AppleEvents and AppleScripts that target a program on a remote system should be authenticated by the same user on that remote system. Otherwise, the user will receive a procNotFound error.
How to Enable the AE Server on a Mac
In order to instruct another Mac on your network, you need both AppleScripts and the Remote Apple Server for it to work. The AppleScripts contain the instructions for the task you want the other Mac to perform while the AE Server authorizes and executes the instructions. You can tell another Mac to shut down, play a song, visit a website, or display an alert using these features.
To enable the Remote Apple Server or the AE Server on your Mac, follow these instructions:
- On your Mac or the Mac, you want to remote control, click on the Apple menu, then choose System Preferences.
- Click Sharing, then tick off the Remote Apple Events checkbox.
- Specify the users who can send events:
- All users: Any of the users on your computer and anyone on your network can send events to your Mac.
- Only these users: Click the Add (+) button, then choose the users who can send events. Users & Groups refer to all the users on your computer. Network Users and Network Groups refer to the people on your network.
Once you have followed these steps, the users you specified can now send AppleScripts to your Mac. You will still need to log in using that Mac’s admin username and password to authenticate the AppleScript.
But before running the AppleScript, clean up your computer first using a Mac cleaning software to make sure that your computer is performing at its best.
As with all sharing features, you should enable Remote Apple Events only if you’re sure that you need it. A malicious third-party who knows your Mac’s IP address, as well as your username and password, could steal information from your Mac, hijack your device, or override your session. If you don’t need to send instructions to another Mac, it is best to leave this feature disabled to close off all unnecessary avenues of attack.
To disable the Remote Apple Server, you can either turn it off using the Sharing menu (Apple menu > System Preferences > Sharing > Remote Apple Events) or type in the following command using Terminal:
/usr/bin/sudo /bin/launchctl disable system/com.apple.AEServer
Restart your computer for the changes to take effect. Your AE Server should now be disabled.
How to Write AppleScripts
Enabling the Remote Apple Server is just one part of the equation. Next, you need to write the AppleScripts with the instructions of what you want your Mac to do. For this, you need to use the AppleScript Editor or the Script Editor under Finder > Utilities. Once the editor is open, you can then write the script by clicking File > New.
Here are some of the scripts you can try:
- Put Mac to Sleep
tell application “Finder” of machine “eppc://IP Address of the target Mac″
sleep
end tell
- Open iTunes
iTunestell application “iTunes” of machine “eppc://IP Address of the target Mac”
play
end tell
- Quit iTunes
tell application “iTunes” of machine “eppc://IP Address of the target Mac”
stop
end tell
- Launch Safari
tell application “Safari” of machine “eppc://IP Address of the target Mac”
activate
end tell

- Quit Safari
tell application “Safari” of machine “eppc://IP Address of the target Mac”
quit
end tell
Once you have created these AppleScripts, you can save them on your Mac and run them when you need to. You will need to enter the target Mac’s username and password to execute the AppleScript.

On June 23, 2003 Apple CEO Steve Jobs will kick-off the company’s annual Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) with the first public showing of Panther, the next major release of Mac OS X. This year’s developer conference will also bring more extensive QuickTime developer tracks, content that has been reserved in previous years for QuickTime Live, a separate conference which was held in Beverly Hills, California.
Originally scheduled for May 19-23, 2003 in San Jose, the conference was moved to the larger Moscone Center in San Francisco from June 23-27, in order to provide developers with a more complete preview release of Panther.
“People are going to be blown away by Panther,” Richard Kerris, Apple’s senior director of Worldwide Developer Relations, told MacCentral.
While Panther is certainly a draw for many attendees to the upcoming conference, this year also brings extensive Enterprise tracks designed for enterprise developers, system administrators and IT managers. Software technologies like Mac OS X, Mac OS X Server, Java, WebObjects and Directory Services will all be covered. Sessions will explore how to leverage the open source and open standards technology leveraged by Apple, as well.
Apple is also offering information of interest to IT personnel in academia, with the Higher Education Mac OS X Lab Deployment Initiative Special Interest Group (SIG). The SIG will explore some of the issues that come up when OS X is used in labs.
Not surprisingly, media will play an important role at this year’s Worldwide Developers conference. With the inclusion of QuickTime Live, there are over 171 conference sessions at this year’s WWDC — 25 percent of those are focused specifically on QuickTime content. This should ease any fears the QuickTime community may have had when the separate QuickTime Live show was cancelled.
“People that like QuickTime Live can come to the developers conference and have access to everything else that’s going on at the conference, including Steve’s keynote,” said Frank Casanova, Apple’s director of QuickTime Product Marketing. “We think that putting QuickTime Live and the developers conference together makes something better than either one of those conferences were alone.”
Besides Mac OS X Panther, Enterprise and open standards, Kerris said WWDC would be a continuation of what the company showed at April’s National Association of Broadcaster (NAB) conference in Las Vegas. Apple used NAB to release Final Cut Pro 4 and announce DVD Studio Pro 2.0.
“It’s all about media — it’s in the DNA of the company,” said Kerris. “Whether you’re producing a movie, picture, QuickTime, or a song, people do it on a Mac. More people than ever are doing these things on a Mac.”
Kerris also said that Apple has received twice as many entries for the company’s Apple Design Awards, in the OS X category alone. The Apple Design Awards recognize innovation, advanced Mac OS X look and feel, use of Apple technologies in developers’ Mac OS X-based products, and new, exciting, and high quality product entries to the Mac OS X market.
