You’ll also need to be on the right firmware your Mac will need to be on macOS Catalina and your iPad needs to be on iPadOS 13.0.īefore you get Sidecar set up, you’ll also have to decide if you want to use Sidecar over a wireless or over a wired connection.
You can check Apple’s list of supported devices right here. If you want to use macOS Catalina’s Sidecar feature to share your Mac’s screen with your iPad, first make sure you have a Mac and an iPad that both support the feature. (We’ll offer advice for how Windows PC users can set up an external monitor in an upcoming article.) Using Sidecar with an iPad I’ll walk through how to set up both options in this guide. If you don’t have an iPad, you can connect a separate monitor to your Mac. If you have an iPad and a Mac, Apple offers a handy feature called Sidecar that lets you use your iPad as a second display. If you’re considering adding another screen to your macOS setup to help fix that laptop hunch or just to add some extra screen real estate, read on. To fix that, I’ve found that plugging my laptop to an external monitor on my desk is essential for me to be productive. But it’s really hard for me to put in a full workday hunched over one. It’s great to do work while lounging in my favorite chair or at a coffee shop (when we could still do that). I then found a link to a Griffin Mini DisplayPort to HDMI w/ Audio on the Apple Store which specifically says it works with the mid-2010 13" Macbook Pros.Every computer I’ve called my own for work or personal use has been a laptop. Update: I learned the Macbook in question has a mini DisplayPort connection. See the utility's help file for further information. Select the options options you wish, and test. A menu should then appear giving you the options to use this device for sound output and play alerts and sound effects through this device. These icons will be placed beside the audio device to which they're currently assigned my guess would be the 'Built-in' devices. To the right of the device names, ought to be 3 icons: a Mac face (for system sounds), a speaker icon (for main sounds) and a microphone icon (for input). There may be other I/O devices listed, depending on your configuration. I have HDMI - 0 in/2 out listed on the left, in addition to Built-in Input and Built-in Output. This will give you a list of input and output devices. Using "Audio MIDI Setup.app" in the /Applications/Utilities/ folder, under the Window menu, select "Show Audio Window".
