I have a 2020 27 inch iMac, and I also have a 2019 15 inch Macbook pro, I would like to use my iMac with my MacBook Pro as a secondary screen, however it doesn't seems to pick it up. I'm using an apple certified usb C to usb C cable, am I doing something wrong? when I press cmd + f2 nothing happens on my iMac.
iMac 27″, macOS 10.15
Target Display Mode was discontinued in 2015, so no the iMac will not work and sorry there are no work around. If the MBP needs an external display, please buy one. Your iMac is a computer and not an external display for another computer.
Well, we have to do due diligence prior to buying not after the fact. I've got 2 ea, 27" iMacs on the way to me, I'm typing this on my 2011 27" which technically might work but I'm not planning on even attempting it.
This is a bummer, as I have an iMac in my home, but the office's computer is a MacBook Pro. Thanks!
Depending on what your specific use is, you could
use Apple's built in Screen Sharing via ethernet.
can I use target display mode with a 2020 iMac and a 2019 MacBook Pro? I have a usb C to usb C cable and it doesn't seem to pick up the connection between the two.
