x2 iMac late 2013 running Catalina - How to use one as an extended screen to the other? Hi, Hoping someone can help me here. I have x2 iMac late 2013 running Catalina, I wanted to connect the two together using one as an extended screen to the other, I have a Thunderbolt cable between the two, but I still don't see an option for this. I have checked the 'System Info' 'System Report' and can see that on both iMac that the Thunderbolt entry in hardware shows an active connection - Device Connected, shows cable firmware as 1.0.16 and a valid serial number for the Apple Thunderbolt cable (which cost a small fortune!). Please, what am I missing? Thanks in advance.
