I've been hunting unsuccessfully for some software I remember seeing that allowed you to use a second computer as a display extension but I've not managed to find it. I'm sure it exist(ed) though so perhaps google it and you'll get more luck than me.

Cheers,
Jason

Thanks Sam.

I figured it was probably a hiding to nothing but worth a try.

Thunderbolt and DisplayPort use the same connector but I believe it only works with Macs. Apple cut off the feature in Mojave, so I doubt they’ve devoted much development time to making it windows compatible. I think it’s thunderbolt-only too, not just DisplayPort.

Hi all.

My partner has a Dell PC laptop that she uses for work. We have a late 2013 iMac with two thunderbolt ports at the back but no obvious mini display port. Does anyone know whether it is possible to use the iMac as a target display for the Dell laptop? The Dell laptop has an HDMI port and a usb c port. I bought an HDMI to thunderbolt cable but I cannot get the iMac to enter target mode.

Thanks

Jonathan Brady
