screen sharing

Both machines are in the same network and connected over Ethernet per CAT7 cable. They are in different rooms of my house. I have been able to see the screen of the Mac mini on the TV. No problem there. However, how do I operate the Mac mini while watching it on the TV. My TV remote cannot do...

In earlier versions of the OS the files for screen sharing where stored in: /Users/e/Library/Containers/com.apple.ScreenSharing/Data/Library/Application Support/Screen Sharing as .vncloc files. I have noted that this no longer happens for new connections. Are they stored somewhere else? Or...

Why isn't MacOS Screen Sharing working?

Only one Mac isn't an AS machine on Sonoma - that is a 27" 2016 iMac on Monterey. Rest are new-ish MBPs and a mini - or so old they are not in the equation at all! Have only just started to need to consider screen sharing. And specifically screen sharing of the Monterey machine to any running...

The Sonoma screen sharing app seems to always start in full screen, no matter how I set the view or "scale to fit window" or if scaled or not, it just resets when I quit and restart. Anything I can do here or this intended behaviour rather than a bug? Thanks!

Has anyone been able to succesfully use the MacOS Screen Sharing.app, sending a request to another users' AppleID *on a different network* lately? It used to work for me fine, but the last two times I've tried to use it, the remote user accepts the request, the remote users' screen appears and...

Recently I made my Plex server running on a 2021 Mac Mini running Ventura 13.1 headless. Everything's been fine, except now that it's in headless mode, when I go to move files from one drive to another via Screen Sharing, my Command Key + Mouse, which used to move files, copies instead...

While Screen Sharing to remotely control my elderly mom's Mac, I initiated a FaceTime call with a relative so they could catch up. I can hear my mom talking but not our relative even though my mom can hear them fine. Is there any way to share INCOMING sound on her Mac with me?

I've been using Screen Sharing running on a 2012 Macbook Pro to connect to a late 2014 Mac Mini, both running Catalina, with no issues for over a year. The performance has always been snappy with no lag, even with both machines connected to wifi only. All of a sudden about a week ago (and maybe...

I'm using a mid-2010 Mac Mini running ElCapitan as a media server. I control it from my laptop, 2017 Macbook Air running Monterey, using screen-sharing (from a Finder window using Go -> Connect to Server). It usually works fine, but occasionally, after some days have passed, it stops...

I recently got a projector, to which I can share my screen from my iPhone via wifi. However, using the wifi to share the screen I cannot access internet.. so the the purpose is basically pointless! I can use the mobile data and that way use the internet while screen sharing, but I have limited...

The other day I got a message on my iMac with something like: "Can't open Mac with Apple Watch because screen sharing is on". I didn't have any screen sharing on... So I opened up preferences and saw something strange."Other users can access your computer's screen at vnc://huawei_p20-[letters...

I've just bought a new LG 27UL500 monitor. I want to use it with my Late 2014 iMac to extend the work area when video editing. However when connecting it via thunderbolt to the HDMI input of the monitor, it will only work when the screen mirroring option is selected. When I try to use the screen...

Hey, this is my first post on the site, nice to meet you all. Please help me determine if I can upgrade my OS, to what level I should, and if doing so will fix my problem. I got an excellent macbook pro 8 years ago, but that was 8 years ago. Originally it had 10.9 Mavericks on it and it was...

VNC Viewers can connect they are just limited to view only access on the login screen. If a user is already logged in the Viewers work mostly as normal. I followed the steps in this article but Real Vnc Viewer only had view access...

I would like to see this on iOS for screen sharing between iOS devices as well as between iOS and MacOS. That way I can see my Mac’s screen and access it on my iPhone or iPad Air. Same thing between the iPhone and the iPad Air or vice versa. This tool will be helpful when helping a friend out...

Recently noticed on my iPhone 7 that when I tap the carrier or network bar icons at top of screen a white, offset duplicate of the icons appear and then disappear when I let go. Does this indicate my iPhone is being remotely viewed?

What are the options to remotely connect my cMP 5,1 (Mojave) to my Macbook Pro 5,1 (El Capitan) over the internet? I’ve been using Team Viewer but it has become increasingly temperamental. I found an app called Screens on the app store but it won’t support lower than High Sierra. VNC Viewer...

Hello, I transformed my former MacBook Pro into a server. For the VNC part, I can access the server screen very easily from my other mac via the Screen Sharing app From iOS, I can use the RealVNC app without installing anything on the server. For a Windows computer that's not mine I have to...

Hi fellow Mac users, Let me explain the problem I’m having as short as possible. I have a mac mini 2012 running headless and serving as a Plex server. I use my Macbook Pro late 2015 to gain access to the mac mini using Screen Sharing. My new Samsung TV has a native Plex App. So far, so good...
