Using my IPAD as an extended display using AirDisplay.

Using my IPAD as an extended display using AirDisplay.

I couldn't use AirDisplay at McDonald's or Starbuck's. The wi-fi blocked local traffic. So - this is my work-around.

In a nutshell:
  • Enabled Bluetooth on both and connected my IPAD to my Mac.
  • Started AirDisplay on both and connected.
  • When it started up, my Mac's display shrunk to the size of my IPAD. 
    • System preferences (on my Mac)
    • Displays
    • Arrangement - un-check 'Mirror Displays' and position the small window.
