Hello, I am new here.
I have a 27" iMac with 27" iDisplay running OS High Sierra. I have installed Parallels running Windows 10. I am working from home now and I have a 13" work Windows laptop. I would like to use either 27" as monitor for laptop. iMac uses Thunderbolt2/mini display port. Windows laptop uses HDMI out.
So far, I have tried (to no avail):
- HDMI to mini displayport adaptor cable with target display mode (apparently you cannot convert HDMI signal to mini displayport. is this true?;
- windows "Project to this PC" - does not work with Parallels.
Does anyone know of anything that may work? Software, KVM Switch/docking station any other solution?
Any suggestions greatly appreciated.
