    I haven't been able to find an answer for this: do you know if Universal Control will let you share a Bluetooth keyboard and mouse with multiple Macs? I've got a Keychron keyboard and MX Master mouse and would love to use it between my two MacBooks running Monterey.

    • @Mr.Macintosh
      @Mr.Macintosh  2 года назад +1

      Great question Derek, this feature comes in handy any time you might need a to check something on a 2nd home mac or even a work mac. You can grab a file or web url and quickly bring it to your main Mac. The most important part of this is when it starts working with the iPad, as you will be able to do the same thing in iPad OS.

    • @Gadgets20
      @Gadgets20 2 года назад

      What do you mean you can't see a use for this? I think the main benefit is that you don't need multiple keyboards and mice to use 2 different computer.

    • @derekkelly485
      @derekkelly485 2 года назад

      @@Gadgets20 I guess I just don’t find myself using two computers at once. My iMac has a second monitor and if I want a third screen I’ll just sidecar to my iPad. If I need a fourth screen, which I never do, I guess I could universal control to my MacBook Air.

      I think tht getting it to work without monitor arrangement setup is why they refused to release it. For me, as long as moving stuff across devices work, i don't mind arranging monitors.

      Ali, did you install the file on both your 2018 and m1? If not it will not work. Put that file in on both then restart them and then see if you can see the new advanced button. ALSO make sure you are logged into your appleID on both Macs.
