yeah i was having issues but not like this. Every time I load up the control i can use it for about 1min then i loose control and have to disconect the usb and plug back in and restart. Any suggestions?

Sounds like a bad cable or insufficient power to a USB hub.

Diddo, Try plugging straight into the mini with the usb

i dont have a hub at the momment, just a length of usb, one length of ten ft and the amount comming off the actual liliput. so i dont think that is it. Yeah i dont know.

i think the specifications for this program are:

max os x 10.6

256mb ram

and 14ft of usb between the monitor and mini.

Sorry man you need to ge a little longer for it to work right.

Yup, sounds like a cable issue. Get a hub.

Seems like a neat program but for some reason I couldnt quit out of it. Remember though I am a mac newbie

I tried to click on the menu, wouldnt let me click. I tried ctrl+q, yah windows keyboard, no dice. Any ideas? I had to hold the power button to shut down the mac mini and then reboot to get out of it.
