Q: Target display mode has suddenly stopped working
I have been using target display mode using a thunderbolt cable between my iMac 21.5 inch (late 2012) and Macbook Air 13 inch (early 2014) for around six months.
I had a few weeks off, and have come back to find that I can no longer enter target display mode! When I press Command-F2 on my keyboard connected to my iMac nothing happens. I've also tried Fn-Command-F2. I've tried different ports in case one them is damaged. But no avail.
Does anyone have any suggestions as to why target display mode would have stopped working so suddenly? I really like the feature of dual screens between my macbook and iMac and would really like it to come back!
Thanks.

From my knowledge Target Display Mode will work, but only if I use command-f2 from the login screen. After logging in, the command will not work. have you tried that ?
