Product Description:

What is it?
teleport is a simple utility to let you use one single mouse and keyboard to control several of your Macs.

Simply reach the edge of your screen, and your mouse teleports to your other Mac! The pasteboard can even be synchronized between the computers.

How do I use it?
Using the convenient Preferences Pane, you configure which hosts you want to control, arrange them graphically like in the Monitors panel, and you're ready! Simply reach an edge of the screen where a slave host is connected, and you take control of the other Mac. The keyboard is acting like if it was connected on the controlled host, and the pasteboard has optionnally been synchronized. On the master computer, a nice notification indicates that it controls another Mac, and shows you the position of your mouse cursor.

To take back control of your main Mac, simply drag the mouse back from where your cursor came, just like when you have several monitors.

teleport ReviewGreat idea, works for a while, then won't and menu item suggestion - Version: 1.0.2, 12/11/2009 04:59AM PST

Firstly, this is an inspired idea that one wonders how Apple missed.

Issue #1: Can you please fix the menu bar item to stay in the menu bar even when disabled? To have to always go back to the System Preferences to re-enable it is surprise hand to forehead moment.

Issue #2: It stops working after a while. You get the cool radiating red thingies on the edge that indicate you are really wanting to teleport over to your other machine but the cursor won't go, rather it just keeps bouncing off the edge. Scotty needs to fix the transporter.

Other than that, great idea I'd like to use consistently one day.

Got Teleport on my Leopard intel 8core Tower.... It also controls my old Dual 2.8 G4 Tower running Tiger Server.. I have all the correct versions.. it worked flawlessly for a year & a few months ago My mouse works fine on the Target Tiger G4 Server but typing I can't use shift or Alt for some reason.. It won't recognize any Modifier Keys I hit..

Any Suggestions

teleport Troubleshooting ReportHow do you switch from an Intel Mac and a PPC? - Version: 1.0.2, 10/22/2009 10:24AM PST

This software is amazing!!!!!!!!

I'm having one issue. My new MacBook Pro (Intel) sees my G5 (PPC) and the cursor moves from my MacBook Pro to my G5 beautifully. However, it can't go back to my MacBook Pro. I've activated the sharing and the my MacBook sees my G5, but my G5 doesn't see my MacBook Pro to activate it in the Teleport Window.

I installed the newer (INTEL) version on my MacBook Pro and the older (PPC) version to work on my G5. Would this be the reason that my G5 would not recognize the new INTEL version or my MacBook Pro?

Please help as this would be a tremendous asset. I'll mak a donation once this is rectified.

Thanks in advance,

Jeff
