HT3235 My second monitor is working but I can't figure out how to use it! I can't get anything to drag. I know how to adjust extended desktops on PCs but I can't figure this one out.

I am used to working on duel monitors. I bought a new MacBook Pro 15' yesterday, the adapter for my monitor, and the monitor is on with the generic background but I can't drag any windows over to it. I can do it on PCs but can't figure out on the Mac. Can someone please help the noob out?
Thanks
Nikki

The blue blocks in that screen are Icons for your actual screens. Their sizes are proprtional to the number of pixels in each screen. They can be dragged to new locations relative to each other -- as long as they are touching at some point.  You are expected to drag them so that they correspond with the actual screen location on your bench, so that the movement from one scrren to the other is intuitive.
The white stripe represents the menuBar. It can also be dragged to any screen, and that screen will then be the one with the MenuBar. It will also become the screen with the Startup icons on it.

    It seems that the flash file is stretching or something, its
    off one pixel on the right. When i set my flash file at 699 width,
    it was one pixel off on the right.
    Can any offer any suggestions. I'm completely out of ideas.
    Thanks in advance.

    it looks like the graphic's width might have been transformed
    at 101% in Flash.
    If the actual image file has the right width, I don't see any
    other possible explanation.
    You should double check in Flash authoring, select your
    graphic (or your MC or whatever object you
    might have converted it to) and open the transform and/or
    info panel. One of these panels will show
    you the % width and height ratio of your object...

  • So you think you are an Java uber-geek? Then figure this one out. . .

    Ok, uber-Java geeks, let's see if you can figure this one out. It' s butt-ugly and got me totally stumped.
    This is in a Tomcat 5.5 environment.
    I have a jsp (hierarchy.jsp) which has static nested class called MgmtAuthBean. This hierarchy.jsp creates a TreeMap object which contains instances of the static nested class, MgmtAuthBean. So, after compilation of the hierarchy.jsp, I end having 2 jsp's:
    hierarchy_jsp.java <==== original jsp
    hierarchy_jsp$MgmtAuthBean.java <==== nested static class jsp
    Ok, easy to understand so far. . .now for the rub. . .
    The hierarchy_jsp.java then saves the TreeMap object in a session.
    Another servlet (ExcelServlet) then accesses this saved session object, but in the process of reconstituting the TreeMap object, it requires access to the nested static class hierarchy_jsp$MgmtAuthBean.java.
    The problem is that ExcelServlet craters because it can't find hierarchy_jsp$MgmtAuthBean.java in order to reconstitute the TreeMap object.
    Since jsp's are dynamically created when called, how do I point either the Tomcat container or ExcelServlet to hierarchy_jsp$MgmtAuthBean.java?
    For reason's too stupid to explain, I can't get rid of the static nested class, so I have to figure out how to make this work. . .
    :)

    Tomcat provides a utility for pre-compiling JSP into Servlet class files. This can also be done in ANT. You can precompile the JSP which will create the inner class file and then compile the Java files that need the inner class file. It may take some tweaking to get all of the classes to compile in the correct order.
    A possible alternative is t have the inner class implement an interface. the hierarchy_jsp can then refer to the contents of the TreeMap as instances of the interface instead of as instances of the inner class.

    Ok, im new to numbers but i cant work this one out. I have 4 columns. A and B have different values. Column C is an average of hours worked. When column C is less then 8 i need column D to equal column A. When column C is equal or greater then 8 i need column D to equal the sum of A and B.

    Hi Lucas,
    Try this:
    Formula in D2 (and Fill Down) =IF(C2<8, A2,A2+B2)
    The IF function follows the logic of if, then, else.
    IF(this is true, then do this, else do that)
    If it is raining, then stay at home, else hold a picnic .
    Regards,
    Ian.

    My Second Monitor stopped working in snow leopard. How do I fix it?
    The monitor is not dead I have checked it using the the other monitor slot. The slot thats not working is the one that has the HDMI adpator on the end of the cable. Tried resetting the computer disconnecting the monitor power, trying a new cable. Nothing fix's it. I'm using snow leopard and everything has been fine. I haven't done any recent updates or changes to the system in the last 4 weeks.

  • Performance Issue - sitting this one out

    Hi,
    as mentioned in a previous post, I am having serious difficulty with navigation in the grid view. There is no way I am getting any kind of satisfactory scroll movement, either with the mouse nor with the tablet. For a program which is expicitely intended to handle large number of pictures and navigating through them, this is not acceptable.
    To make this clear: I love the new features in LR3, especially the noise reduction improvements and the lens corrections; also the fine tuning instruments for sharpening are worth mentioning. However, if I spend most of my time (and nerves) to get to the picture I want to manipulate instead of getting any of my actual work done, it is time to do something about it.
    On the ohter hand, LR 2.7 was working just fine; no performance problem (asside from occasional hangups using the correction brush for too long, getting a lot of brush strokes where god himself would't want 'em).
    After fiddeling with my graphics card settings, cache settings, even turning off my anti- virus software for testing, and trying what not, I decided to sit this one out: I'll rather use an inferior LR 2.7 that works than a superior LR 3 which doesn't work (talking about contradition in terms...).
    So I'll keep on using third- party noise reduction and lens correction software and wait if the adobe engineers find the time to tackle the problem.
    Just a finshing thought: distributing menory- hog- software usually is the domain of Microsoft, isn't it? I believe mass- market- compatible software should run (not walk...) on mass- market- hardware.
    I hope enough people may comment this in the like of "me, too", so that the adobe guys might take notice.
    Thanks,
    Mike.

    Same for me! Editing pictures with LR3 takes soooooo long on my computer (Win 7 64 bits, Intel Core i7 860 , ATI Radeon 48700, 4 Go RAM) that is it not possible to work. LR3 is using 60% of my RAM each time I zoom in the picture, chnage picture or do a local correction. It often crashes. Open in PS CS4 can be painful too.
    Listening to Victoria Bampton's advice, I have deleted the lrpreview folder and rebuilt the standard preview. FOr a few days it worked bbetter, but after imprting a bunch of pictures, it is slow again.
    Photo is my job and LR my every day tool. I hope the fix will come very soon, just can't wait!

    You will need to find a forum for MS Word since that is the software that you are trying to manipulate in this.  If you think the processing/creation of the PDF plays a role then you should ask in the forum for the software that you are using to create the PDF.
    This forum is for issue regarding downloading and installing Adobe trial products, so in any circumstance, your issue does not fit in this forum.

    Help needed. I have a 3TB external hard drive partitioned into 1TB's. I used one partition as backup for the main computer hard drive. But now it is greyed out as shown in the disk utility and its name changed, i dont know how that happened, i tried verifying and repairing it but had no luck. I also tried mounting and unmounting it but still no solution. Anyone to help please?

    Looks bad. I would strongly advise backing up the stuff on the other two partitions as soon as possible in case the rest of the drive goes wrong.
    Beyond that, Disk Utility has limited abilities to repair disks, DiskWarrior uses a different approach and might, emphasis might be more successful. It has certainly done the job for me in the past when Disk Utility could not.

I have uploaded the CD onto my Mac, but when I open the Lightroom application again, it still says the trial has expired. Does anybody know how I can update it so I can finally use it again? I really appreciate any help!! Thank you!

    Joanne please remove your current installation of Photoshop Lightroom using the uninstallers located in the Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers.
    You will then want to download Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5.7.1 from Adobe - Lightroom : For Macintosh.  The update contains the entire application.  Photoshop Lightroom can not be installed through the Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop application and still be licensed with a serial number.

    Could be many things, we should start with this...
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at the top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    5. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
    Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
    (Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
    Report any errors it found for Disk Repair, don't need the ones for Permissions Repair.
    Try it again & see if anything changed, but have Activity Monitor open & Show All Processes & sorted on CPU%, also have Console open if we can... maybe not when switching, but we'll see.
    Does this happen if you just try to create a new admin user???

    You didn't indicate if it ever worked.  If it NEVER did, the problem could be caused by a firewall in the router.  For reasons that I do not understand, that will affect IOS (iPod/iPad) communication but will not affect computers or other devices.
    You will need administrative access to the router.  If a firewall is present, turn it off and test the iPod again.  If it works, turn the firewall back on but weaken it a notch and test the iPod again.  Repeat as required.
