Turn Off – Checking this option prevents you from using your
keyboard and mouse to control the other computer. When turned off, the Disable Keyboard and Mouse Temporarily option is removed from the software settings menu.

Using GO!Bridge to Access and Transfer Files

You can also right-click on the file to pull up a menu that allows you to choose from a list of commands, such as open, copy, rename and delete.
To navigate to different locations on the connected computer, click the
icon to the left of the address bar in the Windows interface and select the location you wish to display. For Mac systems, drives and places in the connected computer are displayed on the interface’s left­hand side; simply click on the desired location to go there.
