Monitor For Mac Air

| Posted on by



I would like to connect my older MacBook Air as a second monitor using a Thunderbolt cable.

From 2011 to 2016, Apple sold its Apple Thunderbolt Display, a 27-inch 2560x1440-pixel monitor that relied on a Thunderbolt 2 connector to carry data to and from a Mac along with a MagSafe.

I can use 'screen sharing' via WiFi but that is not what I am looking for.

  • Your MacBook Air comes with 90 days of complimentary technical support and a one-year limited warranty. Purchase AppleCare+ for Mac to extend your coverage to three years from your AppleCare+ purchase date and add up to two incidents of accidental damage coverage, each subject to a service fee of $99 for screen damage or external enclosure damage, or $299 for other repairable damage, plus.
  • Air Display is the easiest way to turn almost any spare screen into an extra display for your computer. Wirelessly connect to an iPad or Android device from your laptop to create the ultimate road-warrior workstation.Or repurpose any nearby Mac or Windows PC to give yourself more screen real estate for your main Mac.

I suspect my Thunderbolt Bridge is not configured properly: the MacBook Air shows a 'Connected' status (using DHCP with manual address) while the MacBook Pro also displays a green light however the Status says 'Some connected'.

The bottomline is that I do not have the option to share my screen (no additional 'Arrangement' tab in 'Displays').

How can this be fixed ? Do I need another piece of software ?
