Unable to connect after removing a second display #25

Closed irons closed 3 years ago

irons commented 8 years ago

I have a Mac Pro with two displays running 10.10.5, with which I was previously using teleport 1.2 to control a Macbook Air (also on 10.10.5). I moved to a smaller desk, removed one of the two displays on the Mac Pro, and afterward couldn't connect to the Air with Teleport.

The Air could still see and connect to the Mac Pro, but the Mac Pro's Teleport configuration window never showed any displays on the network as sharable. Other machines on the network could see the Air, and it could see other machines, so the trouble seemed localized to the Mac Pro.

Rebooting, killing the teleport process, and reinstalling teleport 1.2 on the Mac Pro didn't help, but running defaults delete com.abyssoft.teleport on the Mac Pro did resolve the problem.

Seems that you were able to find a workaround to fix your issue. I have experienced similar and the workaround I used was to move the displays in the configuration panel on the main computer. It seemed to be caused by the fact that Teleport wasn't correctly detecting the edge of the screen.

The latest release v1.2.2 is working on macOS Big Sur. Give it a try, if you have any problems please open an issue with full steps to reproduce.
