Troubleshooting

If you do not get a picture on both your laptop and the projector screen:

On Windows, hold down the following laptop keys simultaneously:

  • The (Fn) key located on the bottom left of the keyboard, and...
  • The corresponding monitor "F" key located across the top of the keyboard. The specific "F" key varies on laptops, therefore look for the "F" key displaying two monitor symbols or labeled (LCD/CRT).


On Mac OS X, navigate to System Preferences > Displays > Arrangement and then check off Mirror Display's.
