Screen Recording On Mac Os Mojave

How to take a screenshot on your Mac

Gone are the days of using third-party screenshot tools and recording your screen in Quicktime. Apple includes built-in tools for taking screenshots and recording videos in macOS Mojave, and they’re pretty good. Starting with macOS 10.14 Mojave and Catalina, you must give the Screen Recording (Catalina/Big Sur only) and Accessibility permissions to VNC Connect. If you do not grant these permissions you will see a blank screen in VNC Viewer and/or have view-only access. Please follow the steps below to set up VNC Connect for macOS correctly.

  1. To take a screenshot, press and hold these three keys together: Shift, Command, and 3.
  2. If you see a thumbnail in the corner of your screen, click it to edit the screenshot. Or wait for the screenshot to save to your desktop.
