Guests need to be given Rights from within the User Rights section in the Host Options before they are able to see the 'Computer Share' option in the conference room.
 
  • Running the programs...
  • On Safari: Safari will automatically download the file to the desktop.  If it is a zip or bin file it will unzip/open automatically.  If it's an application file, just double click the file on the desktop and it will run.
  • On Firefox: Firefox will download to the desktop automatically but, unlike safari, it will not unzip or open zip or bin files, so the user would do this manually.  If it is just the .app file/program though they run it the same way, double clicking the icon on the desktop.
  • Mac taking over a PC:
    1. PC runs the Listener application.
    2. Once the program is running, run the connection application on the Mac.

  • PC taking over a Mac:
    1. Mac runs the Host application, waiting until OSX is up and running
    2. Once OSX is running on the mac, PC runs the connection application.
    3. PC should see the mac's computer.  Depending on the screen resolution of the Mac, it may take a little while to load the screen.
