Keyboard control not working #7

Closed evenv closed 3 years ago

evenv commented 9 years ago

I'm controlling a Mac mini from a Macbook Air, both on Yosemite. I've set up encryption on both ends.

The mouse control works, but the keyboard strokes seem to be registering on the master instead of the slave.

I see a few others have commented on this on the forums, but thought I'd raise it here. (Maybe it's time to close down the forums and just point people here instead?)

Btw, great work on Teleport - it's still the easiest and best screen control solution for OSX (when it works!)

I can't replicate this issue with a very similar setup (Mac Mini host, macbook air remote, both on Yosemite 10.10.2 and running Teleport 1.2); both mouse and keyboard sharing work for me.

Is this issue reproducible for you with a clean install of Teleport on both machines?

If you were upgrading from a previous version, it may also be helpful to follow the uninstall instructions at: http://abyssoft.com/software/teleport/forums/index.php?topic=42926.msg45766#msg45766

I am encountering the same problem after the osx sierra upgrade. It started working after a week then failed again after rebooting.. really strange I notice a message in the log:

a wifi flow named com.abyssoft.teleport is ignored (directly reachable target) a wifi flow named teleport is ignored (directly reachable target)

The uninstall link is no longer valid unfortunately, do you have an updated link.. ill go do some more looking for that now.

👍 Yosemite (MBA) can control Sierra (iMac), but not the other way around. Both can see each other when "Share this Mac" is set.

On iMac, drag MBA to position. No request on MBA for auth. No switch when moving mouse. On MBA, drag iMac to position. Request for auth. Switches when moving mouse.

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.

I have a heavily locked-down laptop with strong policies. I had to do the following to get it to install (Catalina):

brew cask install abyssoft-teleport
spctl --add --label "Approved by $USER" /Applications/teleport.app/
spctl --enable --label "Approved by $USER"
sudo xattr -r -d com.apple.quarantine /Applications/teleport.app/
open /Applications/teleport.app/

Then it works great with another Catalina!
