Most MacBooks that have come out since 2017 only have two USB-C/Thurderbolt ports.
Power both your system and projector up and connect them so they can “see” each other.
If your projector has a lens cover, slide it open.
Once you connect the two, your Mac should automatically detect the projector and output its display to it.
Here’s where to find them.
Display configs may differ based on the manufacturer and model of your projector.
ClickSystem Preferencesunder theApplemenu on your MacBook.
A window opens with the name of your gadget at the top.
TheUnderscansetting lets you adjust the relative size of the display in the projected image.
To make the display smaller, drag this slider to the right.
This setting is useful if you have supplemental windows you don’t want to broadcast to a group.
To change this setting, click theArrangementtab at the top of the window.
To use the projector as a second desktop, uncheck the box next toMirror Displays.
You may also see this option on the Touch Bar of your MacBook.
you’ve got the option to drag the two desktop icons around to adjust their relative positions.
The one with the white bar at the top represents your MacBook’s screen.
