Imac [plus 2nd display - can you work with one display rotated 90 degrees?

I'm thinking of getting a Dell Ultrasharp 24" monitor to use as a 2nd screen from my iMac 20". The Dell screen seems to rotate 90 degrees so you can view it landscape or portrait. If you're working with 2 displays functioning as one giant desktop, can you rotate the 2nd display 90 degrees, and still use the 2 monitors as a giant desktop?
Any advice much appreciated - thank you!

Leopard has a built-in feature for rotating the display. It's in System Preferences Displays pane. You can select to rotate the image 90, 180, or 270 degrees. It even works for my massive 21-inch CRT that I use with my iMac as the extended desktop, although it would be very difficult to physically use that monitor in portrait orientation.
So what you are describing should work.

    You can install the software on as many computers as you like.
    However you can only activate the software and use it on a maximum of two computers at any one time.

  • Can you work with a 18 Megapixel Raw picture in the tablet Application?

    I'm thinking of saying goodbye too CS6 and starting out with CC.
    I've seen that the tablet application is also included in this package and for me this could me very usefull.
    The only problems I have found on the Adobe website is that they're speaking of 12 megapixels and not about editting in RAW.
    Now is the question... Can you use the application with a 18 Megapixel photo and in RAW?

    So I can sync two iPods to my iTunes account and sync the same digital copy movies that come with some o' my DVDs to both ipods? Do movies make a difference really, DRM-Wise? Thanks in advance.

  • Navigation? can you work with httm and asp help?

    I have made a sit with fireworks/dreamweaver but now am
    finding out that I need to use Visual Web Basic for both data and
    advanced navigate needs. Can this be done? I can make nav menus in
    VWB but can't get them to work in my mock up html page.

    RAW? No. Compatible formats are JPEG, PNG, PSD and PSDX (PS Touch's own file format).
    Wouldn't be surprised to see some sort of "RAW file syncing" like Adobe just did with Lightroom on mobile, though.
    12 Megapixels is correct...for import, anyway. Oddly enough, I think you can create a 4096 by 4096 pixel project, which is a little bigger than 12 Megas.

  • If I bought iPhone 6 Plus in Japan, can it work with 4G LTE service in Hong Kong (By Smartone) ?

    I wanna buy iPhone 6 Plus in Japan, but not sure if it can work in Hong Kong and if it can use 4G LTE provided by Smartone-vodafone Hong Kong?
    Is Hong Kong using GSM system? Does it mean any unlocked phone from any provider that uses GSM would work in Hong Kong?

    I believe Japanese carriers sell locked phones and do not unlock them under any circumstances.

  • How many computers can you authorize with one serial number?

    Hey guys.
    I'm thinking about buying a 2nd Mac, but I'm just curious how many total computers you have authorize Logic studio on at one time (my guess would be 3 but I hope more).
    Please let me know if you can.
    Thanks,
    Nathan

    I'll copy my post from the other thread:
    I don't know for the others but in my retail package ((not upgrade) I found two serial numbers. Though I haven't got time yet to try the second serial number on my MacBook, my logic says that with two different serials I could run both macs simultaneously and be on the network. But, my logic fails so often so it's better to shut my mouth, install Logic on MacBook and come back here again.

  • Can you help with one more iCal problem?

    Thanks to this forum,I finally got rid of the double entries.  But I must still have something missing because when I post one device, it does not enter on the other. I know iCloud is turned on in Settings on my iPad and iCal is turned on. Each are working separately, just not together.  What am I not doing?

    You don't have any Shape layers, so you won't have any fill or stroke options.  If you had a rectangle and line layer, you have either deleted them, or caused them to be rasterized.  That would also remove any Fill and Stroke options from the Options bar.
    The 'little camera' at the bottom of the Tool bar, is the Quick mask icon.  Clicking on it toggles between standard and Quick mask modes, like you said.  Clicking on it is exactly the same as hitting the q key.  It has absolutely nothing to do with Shape layers.
    What you need to do now, is regroup.  What exactly are you trying to achieve, and what do you expect to see in your Workspace?  You will have noticed that your workspace is context sensitive.  It automatically changes according to what tools are selected, or what function you are using at any particular time.

  • Sharepoint list dataheet view error "Cannot connect to the server at this time. You can continue working with this list, but some data may not be available"

    I have a List which is having around 14000 items in it.while opening that list in datasheet view it is giving error .
    Below is a summary of the issue:
    After selecting datasheet view beow error occurs:
        "Cannot connect to the server at this time.  You can continue working with this list, but some data may not be available."
        "Unable to retrieve all data."
        The item counts displays say 100 out of 14000 items.
    Exporting List to excel is giving only 2000 records out of 14000 records.
    Other Observations   -  
    This is happening to only one list on the site .There are other lists in the site whose no. of records is equal to 8000 to 9000.They are working absolutely fine without any error.
    Also, If I am saving this list as a template and creating another list with it ,then it is working absolutely fine with 14000 records,so the issue does not seem to be related with no. of records as the template list is working fine.
    I have checked the Alternate access mapping setting ,its fine.
    It should not be related to lookup,datefield or any other column as the list created from it template is working fine with all these columns.
    I checked below links also ,but doesn't seem to work in my case.

    I have spent two days to resolve this issue. Microsoft has released two KBs with reference to this issue...but are not appearing in search results at the top.
    I am sharing my finding.
    1. First install the
    KB2552989 (Hopefully you might have already installed it. The KB detetcts it and informs the user.)
    2. Then update registry by adding new key for data fetch timeout as mentioned inKB2553007
    These two steps resolved the issue in our environment. Hope it might help others as well.

    Yes you can. In iPhoto create a Album with the photos you want in it. You can drag them from your Events folder. In iTunes with your iPad connected go to Photos by cliking on your iPad. You can then select the album or events you want.

  • How can I work with big iMovie 6 file?

    I am trying to make a one 70 minute movie with iMovie 6 but am having great difficulties because the file has reached 78 gig and is now unworkable because it is just too slow to even play. Even cutting it in half does not solve the problem. Each half will play but I can't work with them in the timeline. I need to add more audio files and music. Any suggestions?

    I suspect most slowdowns occur because of complex audio, not the size of the project. It sometimes helps to export the audio to an AIFF file, then re-import that file back into the project and place it in its own audio track. When you disable the audio of the other tracks, playback is improved.
    That makes it harder to edit a half-finished project, however. It's a technique best reserved for almost-finished projects.
    You could export the timeline to the camera, then re-import it to a new project. That will both make the project smaller and "flatten" its audio and video. Most clips will return as the clips they are now.
    70 minutes of video is ordinarily about 15GB, so something has increased the size substantially. (That's not normally a problem you have to worry about; the size of the project itself is probably not the problem.)

  • With all the games coming out for iMacs what Gaming Pad or Jotstick works with the Imac

    With all the games coming out for iMacs what Gaming Pad or Jotstick works with the Imac

    Now the bad news. In my "Print to Video" pop up, if
    I select "Color Bars" , "Black", or any other option
    and take out my bars and tone and slug from the
    timeline, the print to video does not print anything
    to tape except for a nice nothing blue. I don't
    even get my actual timeline video printed to tape.
    Jerry,
    You are a genius! Man do I feel silly. So just for the benefit of others who might read this post, I did exactly as you said, and of course when I restarted FCP, I had to identify my Firewire NTSC setting for the drive. This time, instead of leaving my tapedrive offline, I left it on and immediately saw on my drive monitor the video coming off of my timeline.
    Every thing works perfect. I now have a clean timeline with just the content I'm working on and don't have to worry about bars, slugs, post black. Just a few checkboxes and I'm ready to send my tapes off. Really nice feature.
    Thanks!
