How to Mirror your Display You will want to use these directions if when you project your laptop all you see is the background image. Meaning on your computer you can see everything but when you look at the projection it is only the desktop background. If you follow the directions your screen should change. Go to the apple in the top left hand corner of your screen Click on the
apple and a menu will appear. From that menu you will want to select System Preferences. A new window will appear that looks like the picture below. You will want to click on Displays.
After clicking on displays a new window will appear that looks like the one below. You will only get this menu when you are plugged into a projector. You want to make sure that the window has the Arrangement tab. Click on it and it will open another window.

Again, you will only have the Arrangement tab if you are plugged into a projector. The window to the left is what you should get after clicking on the Arrangement tab. Notice that towards the bottom left corner you will see Mirror Displays. What this will do is make whatever is on your screen project through the projector. If you do not have this selected as you
can see by the diagram you will have two displays. In order for something to show up on the projector you would have to drag it to the right of your computer screen.
So you will want to check Mirror Displays. The window you have open should now look like the one to the right. Where both screens are on top of each other. You can now exit your System Preferences. You should see your desktop displayed through the projector.
