No. HDMI ports on Macs any Mac are output only.


But I think you got it backwards. The Cintiq generally will show what is on your desktop on its screen, not the other way around.


You use the Cintiq as basically an additional screen for your computer, so you can draw on it more comfortably. Your Image App on your deksotp will appear on the Cintqs screen. So you are already seeing what is on its screen on your computer.


Unless you are using the Companion, viewing what is on the Cintq on your computer screen does not really make sense.


There's nothing on it. Its mirroring your computer's screen.
