I am having trouble with my mac with parallels.  First, there is no smart stuff on the parallels side.  I suspend it when using the smart board. Also all my files save with the two red parallels…Continue

"I lost Smartink as well about 2 months ago.  It occasionally comes back, but it is not consistent. I really like using it on PDFs.  If I import pdfs into notebook they loose resolution.  Any Ideas?  "

"Try this.  Take a pen and draw vertical and horizontal lines all over the board.  If you can't draw a straight line, your SMART Board might be shortening out.  If your board is shortening out, then put cardboard behind the board…"

mac problems

Everything appears to work fine with my mac - occasional glitches- The main one is once one has used a pen and written a certain amount or clicked on a certain number  of items it stops working -- the number of clicks or letters etc is not known, but this really stops math calculations in the middle.- the same happens if you are working on sample tests on line and clicking some - then it stops after so many.See More

I use Smart Board for some notes and review activities with my social studies students. I use it daily with a mac and have problems writing on the board. We can't pick up a pen and get it to work twice or if a student holds it for a minute to think it stops working
