Use a MacBook with the main display off
There should be no need to set the machine to Mirror Displays. Even in Extend Desktop mode, if you wake the machine with the lid closed, only the external screen will turn on, and you can then use either the internal keyboard/trackpad or USB keyboard and mouse to use the system.
Use a MacBook with the main display off
There should be no need to set the machine to Mirror Displays.That's right. On a powerbook with a second screen plugged-in, in extended mode, I closed the lid. Then I woke the laptop via bluetooth (no USB keyboard available at the time), and it worked as described. I put it to sleep and wake it up again, to get the built-in screen back on. Still worked, except that the windowserver crashed. As far as I know, It didn't cause any problem. |
