How do I share my screen?

How to show sheet music, videos or programs in lessons and what to do if sharing doesn't work.

With Share, you show the other person your screen, for example sheet music, a video or an exercise.


How to share your screen

Step 1: In the classroom, click Share at the bottom.

Step 2: Choose what you'd like to share: a tab, a window or your entire screen.

Step 3: Click Share. To stop, click Share again.

Sound when sharing

Only sound from the browser is transmitted, not from other programs like music software. If you want to show a video with sound, open it in a Chrome tab and share that tab.


Sharing doesn't work?

On a Mac: Your Mac has to allow your browser to record the screen.

Step 1: Open System Settings > Privacy & Security.

Step 2: Click Screen & System Audio Recording and turn on your browser.

Step 3: Restart your browser.

In Firefox: If you chose Don't Allow the first time, click the icon to the left of the address in the address bar and remove the block.

In all browsers: Update your browser to the latest version. Google Chrome works most reliably.

Tip: Upload materials beforehand

You can also upload sheet music and exercises to the Cloud. Then the other person has them after the lesson too.
