You may now slide your mouse cursor off the edge of your Mac, and it will appear on the iPad when you set it adjacent to the computer. iPad keyboard and trackpad functions are identical to those on a Mac, and material may be transferred between both.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s best to note that this feature is still in the beta phase. This means if you would like to try it out, you&#8217;ll have to manually turn it on.
