You have the display set in Extended Desktop mode. The Menu Bar and Dock will be on the MacBook display and your background screen on the monitor. In System Preferences>Display on the MacBook screen there should be an Arrangement tab when you have the MacBook hooked up to the monitor and both screens working. When you click the Arrangement tab do you see two monitors side by side? One of them will have a Menu Bar at the top. Just click on the Menu Bar and drag it to the second monitor. That will make the second monitor your main screen. You can now use your MacBook in Clamshell Mode with a wired or Bluetooth keyboard and mouse.  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3131 When you disconnect from the monitor your Menu Bar will automatically change back to the MacBook.

  • My preorder for the song ghost stories from Coldplay wants me to pay for the album again, how can this be fixed?

    Would like help, I had preorder the album ghost-stories form Coldplay. The moment it came out, iTunes sent an email, as I went to check the album it claims that I must pay for the item again, how can this be fixed?

    Pre-orders are only paid for when you download them, not at the time of pre-ordering - until a pre-order is released and you download it you could cancel the pre-order.
    From http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5714 :
    When the pre-order item becomes available, your account will be billed for the pre-order, and the item will appear in the Purchased section of your account. If there is a billing issue that prevents us from billing your account when the item is released, you'll receive an email notifying you that the item is available. You need to click the link within the email, using a computer and the latest version of iTunes, to fulfill the pre-order

  • Can I convert the optical output to analog for a zone 2 audio? I would continue using the HDMI for the main zone. Can I use both of these simultaneously? Zone 2 only supports analog on this receiver.

    Can I convert the optical output to analog via a converter for  zone 2 audio? I would continue using the HDMI for the main zone. Can I use both of these simultaneously? Zone 2 only supports analog on this receiver.

    These will probably help.

    Hi Don ...
    "Although you can browse the iTunes Store in any country without being signed in, you can only purchase content from the iTunes Store for your own country. This is enforced via the billing address associated with your credit card or other payment method that you use with the iTunes Store, rather than your actual geographic location."

    When I try to open aperture (which has worked great for months), I get this response:
    There was an error opening the database for the library “~/Pictures/Aperture Library.aplibrary”.
    Please help!! Thank you!! =)

    Sonny3300, your signature says "Aperture 2" - is that correct? Then you need this trouble shooting guide:
    Aperture 2: Troubleshooting Basics: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2945
    What is your Operating system version and where is your library located? Have imported new images recently or changed the location of your library?

  • SInce the iOS 7.0.2 update I can't have any GarageBand's Ringtone working for the text's Ringtone... Please help me

    SInce the iOS 7.0.2 update I can't have any GarageBand's Ringtone working for the text's Ringtone...
    Please help me

    As the other person that replied, I have no issues with my 4S on iOS 7.0.2. What user troubleshooting have you tried? Restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new. Try double tapping on the home button, swipe upwards to force closed the camera app, then do a reset. That is holding the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. The phone will reboot. This will have not affect on your data. Try opening the camera app again and see if it works.
    One last question. You say that it shows a standard size picture of the picture where you started. Is this when you are looking at the picture you tried to take in the Camera Roll?

    Greetings chaimba216,
    After reviewing your post, I located an article that can help with resetting your iCloud password:
    iCloud: Change your iCloud password
    Your iCloud password protects the privacy of the information (such as your email) stored in iCloud. Your password also protects your ability to locate or remotely erase your device using Find My iPhone. You should regularly change your iCloud password to protect your information. Your iCloud password is the password for the Apple IDyou use to sign in to iCloud.
    Important: If you use the same Apple ID for iCloud as you do with other Apple services such as the Apple Online Store, iTunes Store, App Store, or to purchase products in iPhoto or Aperture, changing your iCloud password also changes your password for these services. Make sure you sign in to those locations using your new password.
    Go to the My Apple ID website (appleid.apple.com) and follow the instructions to reset your Apple ID password.
    For more information, see the Apple Support article Apple ID: Changing your password.
    After changing your iCloud password, make sure you update it on all your devices and in any email apps you use to get your iCloud email.
    On your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch: Go to Settings > iCloud, then tap your iCloud account.
    On a Mac: Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, then click iCloud.
    On a Windows computer: Open iCloud for Windows.
    In your email apps: Check the help provided for the email apps you’re using.
    If you set up iCloud on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, make sure to set up a passcode lock on your device for added security. (Go to Settings > Passcode or Touch ID & Passcode.)
    Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.
    Best,
    Bobby_D

  • HT204053 If I have an apple ID for myself and my wife has just got a iPhone for the first time how can she get the same apps as I have for my iPhone and iPad

    If I have an apple ID for myself and my wife has just got a iPhone for the first time how can she get the same apps as I have for my iPhone and iPad by getting it off my iCloud?

    She can't from iCloud without setting up your iCloud account on her phone. But just sync the same apps from your iTunes Library on your computer to her phone.
    Your wife should setup her own iCloud account - which is separate to the iTunes Store accounts.
