Tap the name of the Mac to start the pairing procedure.On the iMac, I had to do this at least five times before it worked. The first few times, I just got an error message on the phone saying a connection was impossible. Eventually, I found this message on Houdah’s support forum, which suggested turning off WiFi on the devices before trying to pair them via Bluetooth. Since my iPhone uses my iMac’s WiFi sharing at work, that seemed like reasonable advice. It still didn’t work the next couple of times I tried it, but then it did. I have no idea why it didn’t work at first or why it finally did. The phone didn’t see the MB Air immediately either, but it did on the first try with the “Troubleshooting” technique. The actual pairing procedure-which only starts after you go through all those steps to get the phone to see the Mac-was different on the two machines. With the iMac, I had to type in a set of numbers on both devices with the MB Air, I just had to tap an onscreen button. I’m sorry I can’t give you screenshots or a better description of the process, but I felt the need to work quickly so I wouldn’t lose the connection. Luckily, this awful pairing experience seems to be required only once per computer. After the phone and computer know each other, they reconnect immediately.

Tap in a text field on you phone to get the cursor blinking.Choose your phone from the popup menu of paired devices.Launch Type2Phone, which brings up a long, horizontal window.1 That, at least, has been my experience so far, and because that’s how pairing works with Bluetooth mice, keyboards, and earpieces, I expect it to work that way with the computer, too. What you type on your Mac magically appears in the iPhone’s text field. Cursor control keys work, as do the Shift, Option, and Command modifier keys. ⌘A selects all the text in the field, ⌘X cuts, ⌘C copies, and ⌘V pastes.

Without software like this, taking full advantage of an expanded desktop space can be difficult.What isn’t wonderful, at least not initially, is what goes on in the Type2Phone window as you type.

Instead of the non-free Synergy check out the fork that evolved from the once free older Synergy: Barrier. Quad monitor setup with 2 computers, feasible? But I never got it to work on MacOS and I had a couple of idle synergy licenses anyway. There's also Barrier, which is basically the same thing, but free. Do you have all monitors on during a day? (for me it probably would be little bit distracting). Really nice workspace and and lot of the screen space. You could go software KVM… I haven’t used Barrier but long time ago used Synergy or a Microsoft related one called mouse anywhere or something like that. Mini, KVM Switches, Adaptors Oh My! Assistance pls! If you aren't going to use all monitors on all systems then perhaps you don't even need a KVM and can use a software based approach like this.
