====== Screensharing an iPad with Quicktime Player ======
==== Trusting the Computer/iPad ====
The first step you will need to take is plugging in the iPad to your laptop. You can do this with a USB A to Lightning cable or a USB C to Lightning cable. Once the iPad is plugged in, you will probably need to trust the computer. You should see a prompt on the iPad. Tap "Trust".

You may also need to trust the iPad on the computer. In order to do this, open Finder and locate the iPad in the left bar under "Locations". **The iPad will most likely be named after its serial number.**

==== Screensharing ====
To begin screensharing your iPad, you will first need to launch Quicktime Player, either by finding it in your [[selfhelp:mac:applications:applicationsfolder|Applications Folder]] or searching for it with [[selfhelp:mac:applications:applicationsfolder#option_3|Spotlight]]. The Quicktime icon is pictured below.
