Hello, this is my first post.
So, I switched over to MAC a MacBook Air, and love it.
I have one question though…
I need to be able to use my MacBook in company presentations. I bought a projector and the "display port to HDMI" connector.
So, now I can connect the projector to my Mac and it works great…for PowerPoint, and only PowerPoint.
As soon as I put anything on my screen that is NOT PowerPoint the projector just shows a blank shot of my desktop screen (no icons).
I need to be able to show other files on my computer, not JUST what I have in PowerPoint.
I have the same problem with Skype. When I chose "share screen" in Skype, the people on the other end of the "line" can only see only PowerPoint slides that I am showing, anything else and their view goes blank…
This must be some security thing in my MacBook that prevents the "showing" of anything except PowerPoint, but I need to change this.
Help!
Thanks in advance,
John
