VNC Cusor

Postby john.spencer » Thu Nov 29, 2012 6:39 pm

After connecting to my server over VNC, I can see my mouse on the desktop but the arrow has been replaced by a small circle and I can't click anything. I can see the mouse of the system I'm VNCing into. I've had to hook up a mouse in the Server and use it while having been VNC'd into the server. When I was at training in LA we simply VNC'd into our display computers and we had control over the mouse. Why is it different on my system? Anyone who could help, I'd appreciate it.

My guess would be that the client is still running in fullscreen mode
Ctrl f to take it out of full screen mode and you will then have your pointer back and be able to click on the desktop of your server.

I think that you are in viewer only mode. Click in the menu at "View" and be sure that "Viewer only" is not checked!

Hey guys,

in the future we will add a note to the VNC while running it in Viewer Only Mode as we are constantly having this "issue" again. :-)
