Hello
I recently entered the world of Apple after getting frustrated with Windows based equipment and the lack of compatibility between it and Android based phones and tablets. So far I am loving the Apple platform with easy transparency between devices and seamless synchronisation of many details (eg: Contacts etc).
I have a MacBook Pro 16", an iPhone 11 Pro and an iPad Pro 13". All is working really well. So well in fact that I am considering buying a Mac mini for my office/desk. The mini would connect to my current large curved LG screen and from my research this should work without issue.
A fair amount of my work involves visiting many supplier web sites to research products for integration and also to price products for quotes. So on that basis I love how I can visit any website (on ANY of my devices) and I am automatically logged in either via Face Recognition (via the iPhone or iPad) or via Finger Print verification on the MacBook Pro 16" Laptop. The automatic login process saves me a great deal of time (yet another great Apple feature) and I would like to have this across all of my devices.
My question is how does that work on a Mac mini if I was to connect it to the LG Monitor (this doesn't have a camera) and combine this with a Apple Keyboard and Mouse? How do I achieve the seamless Web Site login process? An external camera perhaps? The Apple keyboards don't seem to have the fingerprint verification available (from what I can tell). Does the Apple Touchpad do the fingerprint authentication perhaps???
Additionally, can anyone tell me if I can combine an Apple Mouse and Apple Touchpad on the same Mac mini? Will that work??? I wasn't sure if you could have these two devices work on the one Mac unit.
Thank you for your time.
