Share the iMac screen and keyboard with Mini?

If I have a Mac Mini, can he share the screen and the keyboard of my iMac (27-inch, 3.4 GHz with OS X 10.11.6 end 2012)?  Or I need additional hardware on my desk?

Bluetooth keyboard/mouse with two Macs sharing

February 2016 https://discussions.apple.com/message/29761388#29761388 - "whether or not you can use your old iMac as secondary screen for your new iMac (known as the target Display Mode) will depend on the model."

Use your iMac as a display with the target - Apple-Support - https://support.apple.com/HT204592 Display Mode

I'm guessing that you are going to reach the point where you click on a button and the keyboard and display switch between a computer and the other simply.

  • Questions from the screen and keyboard on Satellite R830-181

    Hello

    I had exactly the same problem with it;
    http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?MessageID=280934

    I also explained what is it and how it over time in this topic.

    To sum up; my screen and keyboard do not work in my Toshiba Satellite R830-181, 13.3 '' laptop.

    My questions;
    1. is it a motherboard problem?

    2. as it runs on an external monitor, I guess that the graphics card or processor is fine.
    There is no damage on the screen, so I guess there is a problem with the connection of the power supply to the screen.

    If I buy a new screen I have my doubts it will work.

    I'll probably send it to the service tech in my country (hard to find here reliable technology services Toshiba), however, I would like to know what may be the cause and if I can fix it myself.

    What do you think guys? It is a power issue or a problem with the monitor itself?
    If a power issue or something else rather than the screen, how can be fixed?
    Same question applies to the keyboard.

    3. If I repair or fix myself, you think it will happen again? Because I think that this could be a faulty laptop computer of a certain series of production since someone else has experienced the same thing with this model.

    can 4 - there be a relationship between the non-functional keyboard and screen?

    5. If this can be resolved with a replacement of the screen, that I need to find a laptop screen Toshiba R830 or I can buy any 13.3-inch screen?

    As far as I know this model is not supported by the company more, so it is quite difficult to find a screen R830.
    It is difficult to find a 13.3-inch screen, anyway, but still, if I can use the screen of another model which would ease my problems.

    I need an idea on that.
    Thanks :)

    > 1 - is it a motherboard problem?
    Not easy to say: If the external monitor works correctly then this isn't problem chart/motherboard.
    The external USB keyboard works properly, if not motherboard problem too.

    > 2 - because it works on a monitor external I guess graphics card or processor is fine.
    Yes, that's correct.

    > If I buy a new screen I have my doubts it will work.
    I do not recommend to buy the new parts before the defective parts has not been verified.

    > I'll probably send it to the service tech in my country (hard to find here reliable technology services Toshiba), however, I would like to know what may be the cause and if I can fix it myself.
    Good idea to send it to Toshiba service partner since the guys would be able to control parts and fix it.

    > What do you think guys? It is a power issue or a problem with the monitor itself?

    > Same question goes for the keyboard.

    Don t think someone can tell exactly what's causing this according to me its just a bad luck material can start malfunction happens in every possible branch of industries (TV, computer, smartphone, cars)

    can > 4 - there be a relationship between the non-functional keyboard and screen?
    No, the keyboard is only connected to the motherboard, display is also connected to the motherboard, but there is no connection between the keyboard and the display.

  • Looking for a way to test the keyboards with mini-DIN connectors 6-pin!

    My wife has an older Compaq Presario with 1.0 GB of RAM and a 200 GB hard drive.  I recently bought a HP with 4 GB of RAM and a hard drive 1.0 TB.  This is a sweet machine after you run the old PC for years! All my devices connect with USB Sockets. I have also my old Presario is almost double right at my wife, who is running XP with SP3 update.  We mainly use it for my magicjack phone I've used since 2008 and love! It still works great.  Our problem is that we have 3 keyboards with mini-DIN connectors 6 old pins that were standard until the entire passage to USB.  Not one of these keyboards is recognized by one of our PC. My wife's XP, but we have just upgraded to Windows 7 Professional for her.  What I want to know is if there is any test I can do also try another PC, because none of our PC recognize one of these keyboards who all worked in the past. Could we have somehow lost or damaged drivers for these keyboards? I was actually just an adapter I have that connects to the end of a usb connector, so it can be connected to the mini-DIN plug 6-pin on the PC.  When I do cela none of usb keyboards we have and which work fine work! So the problem must be some kind of internal problem as drivers, etc..  I'm just a rookie, so if someone can tell me how to proceed with troubleshooting and find a way to solve this problem we would greatly appreciate it!  Hate junk keyboards that work very well when there must be a way to solve this problem!  Thanks for any help!

    Hi Thomas,

    Thank you very much for the detailed information.

    As you have been told that you are facing this problem is perhaps due to connections or drivers.

  • How to use transfer windows for xp to xp. When I plug usb computers are delivered to the top with the same screen and when I try to use the transfer to the new computer, it just said information gathering and sits for hours

    How to use transfer windows for xp to xp.  When I plug usb computers are delivered to the top with the same screen and when I try to use the transfer to the new computer, it just said information gathering and sits for hours

    Hello, welcome.

    The process is automatic and the maximum transfer rate should be about 20 GB/HR. If the process crashes during that long of a time, it's probably because of something internal rather something you're doing wrong.
    For reference purposes, I included this link. It goes into the details of the migration from XP to Vista (and the basic steps you follow). The instructions are for migrating to Vista via the network, but you can easily follow the steps and choose a different option for your specific installation.
    For both machines, I recommend you to prepare for the transfer using the following procedure:
    1. click on START > run
    2 type "msconfig" (without the quotes) and press enter
    3. go to the "Startup" tab and uncheck all the entries displayed
    4. click on 'Apply' at the bottom right
    DO NOT RESTART YOUR COMPUTER AGAIN
    5. click on START > run
    6. Type "cmd" (without the quotes). Right-click on the result at the top of the menu START and select 'run as administrator '.
    7. type chkdsk /r and press enter
    8 allow the system to attempt disassembly of the volume
    9. allow the system to plan restarting
    10. restart your computer
    11 let checkdisk analyze the file system on your hard drive
    12. Once completed, perform the same steps on the other machine
    13. Once completed, repeat the transfer

    Let us know what happens
    Thank you!

    If you have not saved your data and you want to start the computer with Linux Livecd such as Knoppix and copy your data files on an external hard drive. It is a precautionary measure before the step follows because things happens. ;-)

    Then do a repair installation.

    http://www.michaelstevenstech.com/XPrepairinstall.htm

    If the repair installation does not work, test the equipment to ensure that none have been damaged during the blackout and then do a clean install of Windows.

    If all goes well, no equipment was damaged during the shutdown. Consider buying a power supply (battery backup). APC and Belkin are good; for a computer, simply spend about $60. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

    Hello

    In general the BSOD is the product of the problem of hardware or software problem. To check if it of software or hardware associated with deliver its necessary to reinstall the OS and check if the BSOD will appear using the new OS preinstalled.
    Of course, it s painful to do that because the recovery procedure would format the HARD drive and therefore the data backup is necessary!

    I don t think that the different input voltage might affect the functionality of the laptop computer because the laptop uses the universal adapter that supports entry 100V-240V.

    BSOD can be caused by faulty memory modules so I think that this test of memory could be useful also

  • When I was playing the game and my 3D PC show the black screen and the sound of noise.

    Hi Admin,
    When I was playing the game and my 3D PC show the black screen and the sound of noise. And then I can't move anything and I can restart only. What is this problem? I don't know why? Please help me what should I do.
    My PC specs are as follows

    Aspire M5800 (Q84MR375) Genuine Windows Vista® Home Premium, 64-bit, Intel Core 2 Quad processor Q8400 (2.66 GHz, 4 MB L2 Cache, bus front at 1333 MHz), 3 GB Ram, 750 GB S - ATA HDD, DVD SuperMulti Double Layer drive, Nvidia GeForce GT220 graphics (1 GB dedicated RAM) card, Wireless LAN, keyboard and wireless mouse with LCD 23 '' monitor.

    phoechan,
    More than likely if this started after you upgrade to Windows7 then you might have to update your hardware drivers.  Go to the websites of the manufacturers of hardware for your PC and get all the latest drivers for Windows 7 (video, sound, chipset, etc...).  If they don't have Windows 7 drivers you may have questions until they create them.  You can also try to boot your PC and also right click on the game .exe file and change the compatibility mode to Vista or XP.

    In most cases you won't see much difference in performance using CPUs unless you do very intensive CPU.

    Maybe you can tell what your needs are for the computer, what you intend to use applications and then we can help suggest some configurations, you might want.

    In today's computers, which makes the greatest performance increases for typical users are (in this order):

    • SSD instead of a Fusion or rotation HD.
