Mar 14, 2014 3:37 PM in response to gledjamby Niel,If the iMac is a late 2009 27-inch model, it'll work the same way. If it's a 21-inch late 2009 iMac or any earlier model, target display mode isn't available and you need to use a product such as ScreenRecycler.

iMac is late 2009 27-inch. I am looking to utilize both screens and drag apps and files back and forth. I think screenrecycler is just for display?
I looked into Synergy as well as Teleport. But wondering why neither of my computers are acknowledging the mini displayport-to-mini displayport cable?
If I need software, any recommendations?
@ Malcolm:
I've gone over that page several times, but nothing on mini displayport-to-mini displayport...mostly just thunderboldt.
