Question

I am looking for a way to to record my actions on screen using a Mac.

I want to demonstrate an iPad application or demonstrate how to do a certain OSX task - like opening keynote or something.

Answer 1

If you are using Snow Leopard, Quicktime has screen recording built in.

Answer 2

You're asking for iShowU.

Answer 3

In iOS 11 (still in beta at the time of this post) there is a new screen recording feature in the Control center for recording directly on the iPad.

Answer 4

If the action is not too long which you want to demonstrate, you can use this the pixel egg "capture gif" app (http://www.pixelegg.me/capture-gif) to record your screen as an animated gif. You can also use: http://recordit.co/

Hope this helps.
