How to play Pandora on mini without a monitor

Just to clarify

VNC has two pieces; the server and the client.

Itouch/iphone is the client- this is a free app download from the app store.

OSX has the server built in. All you need to do is enable it and point the client that runs on the itouch/phone to the internal IP assigned to the mini by your router. OSX will display this for you in network settings.

What you will see afterwards is literally your mini desktop appear on your itouch.

Also- I have a vista PC that also has a VNC client and this is how I do maintenance on the mini. Add applications, etc.

Wow. Thanks for the detailed info Robr45. I will try it tommorrow when i get home from work. Can't wait!!

Robr45,

I have just started to set up my mac mini and just implemented the VNC screen sharing you recommended. You just flat out made my day. Thanks so much. I can now turn off my server from upstairs, use Pandora, Classicalarchives, and control everything I wanted to. You're a prince.

Brilliant! Thanks again. I don't buy cd's much these days as i have very little time to search for new music. I like to put on Pandora and let that find me new music. I upgraded to Pandora One and it sounds really good to me.

Is there an similar solution to control Pandora via the iPod touch or iPhone and direct the Pandora steam from a remote desktop to an Apple TV?

Currently, I open Pandora on the desktop and then "highjack" the stream using Airfoil in order to direct it to the Apple TV in my main and secondary system. Works OK, but to change Pandora stations I have to go back to the desktop.

Thanks in advance.
