Dec 6, 2013 9:41 AM in response to hughmorgandanielby varjak paw,What do you mean "run it on an iMac"? Do you mean that you want to use your iMac as a monitor? If so, you can't. The Thunderbolt-equipped Macs can only work as displays for other Thunderbolt-equipped Macs. You could perhaps use a video capture device, but I think the lag would make that unacceptable. Better to just get a separate monitor.

Jan 5, 2014 1:23 AM in response to hughmorgandanielby hughmorgandaniel,Thanks for that Varjak, sorry it took me so long to reply.
I've been fiddling with this Pi for weeks and eventually got it up and running on an old CRT telly.
Bought the kit from Maplin, but it would not run with the supplied power supply, so bought a PiHub.
Turning out expensive. Still, great fun.
Thanks again

To do it, you need to set up a ssh connection. Here are a few links. https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/remote-access/ssh/unix.md https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/remote-access/vnc/
However, you will not be able to use it to a full extent because the ssh connection will not forward information from the graphics processor. I only saw this when trying to play Minecraft. Good luck!
