hey, i went to use screen sharing in leopard(got it for christmas =] ). I enabled it on two computers, it worked the first time, but then i went to connect again and it turned out to be a black screen. (I used the Macworld/Mac tip every day tip to get a list of computers.) I added a few more names looking for the right one by accident and now i have a list of 4 names of the same computer that i do not want, how do i delete computers from my list of computer names?
thanks!

It's stupid. I don't think you can without opening the preference file in Property List Viewer and removing the entries manually. I don't get why your own computer shows up in the list too. It's not like you can connect to it.

Im sure you guys know way more than me about mac's and computer stuff in general (just switched to mac a few months ago). but now screen sharing just wont work, and i was wondering if you knew how to undo the two codes i typed in terminal? to restore screen sharing to how it worked in the very beggining? that would be very helpful.
--thanks

i typed this code:
defaults write com.apple.ScreenSharing ShowBonjourBrowser_Debug 1
after i brought the appication "screen sharing" to my dock.
then i typed this one:
defaults write com.apple.ScreenSharing \
'NSToolbar Configuration ControlToolbar' -dict-add 'TB Item Identifiers' \
'(Scale,Control,Share,Curtain,Capture,FullScreen,G etClipboard,SendClipboard,Quality)'
to add more buttons and control to the toolbar in screen sharing.
hope that helps?

Remove the file com.apple.ScreenSharing.plist from (yourhomefolder)/Library/Preferences and stop ****ing with stuff Apple isn't ready with yet.

Well Macworld isn't always correct. Since you are new to Macs, I would recommend perhaps laying off the Terminal for a while.
