I often get my mom to share her screen so I can help her with something. But when I'm done, I don't know how to stop screen sharing so the video window returns.

Usually, in the bottom right corner will be a box that says "her computer" (forgot what it says right now). The only way I know how to get back to the video screen is to close that box. But it disconnects us and we have to call each other again.

I am sure there is a simpler way but cannot find it.

I love Ichat and screen sharing though.


thanks for your help.
 
just simply click on the window (not the x) and it will switch back to your desktop..

Right but her desktop will still be in a window in the bottom right corner, i don't know how to close that window w/o disconnecting the call.
 
my bad... i don't think there is a way to do that... I think you might have to re-connect manually... That's what I do since I don't know any ways around it...
