Multiple Monitor, change number!

My windows recognize my displays wrong.
My monitor is the "projector" (2) and my tv is my "monitor" (1).
Anyone knows a way to change it?
I have tried swap the cables, swap the hdmi entrance, nothing works.
Currently using a ATI graphic card, so the catalyst don't have the "display manager", driver beta, bla bla bla...
Reference: http://forums.amd.com/game/messageview.cfm?catid=279&threadid=111183&highlight_key=y&keyword1=display%20manager
Using:
Windows 6.1.7100 x64
ATI HD 4870 + Catalyst 9.4
Monitor 22" Samsung (should be the number 1, left)
LCD TV 32" Samsung (should be the number 2, right)
See the screenshot:

I can swap the sides into the "screen resolution", btw all the times i press WIN+P i need to remember to select the projector (monitor).
It's really annoying! Microsoft can't make a little function to change the ID's of the monitors? WILL BE GREAT!
Any ideias??? thanks!

First of all, it seems like about 80% of the responses here are not only from idiots, but from idiots who didn't bother to read your entire post, not to mention don't know anything about anything. Pointing out obvious control panel functions is the most
unhelpful (and infuriating IMO) thing someone can do, especially considering the fact that most people in a situation like this will have looked around before resorting to posting about the issue, not to mention, anyone who has
BASIC computer skills (doesn't just use it as a facebook machine) knows about display options & the fact you can set one as a primary monitor & that you can move the monitors around to arrange how the displays are placed in person,
but the problem remains that it STILL labels the wrong screen with the wrong number. MOST if not
ALL of you think this is meaningless, well I assure you it is
VERY MUCH NOT. It is a
HUGE issue for people like me especially, who use software like Objectdock, Rainmeter & about 80% of the time don't have the screen which thinks is #1 even on, so it screws me over. It messes up everything, makes most of
my programs open on the wrong screen, which is off & I can't get to (infuriating & often either only fixable by aero hover+right click+move+right arrow key+drag mouse or not fixable AT ALL without somehow turning on that monitor to find & fish
the window out). Objectdock keeps shooting my docks onto the wrong monitors, and Rainmeter, Rainlendar & Objectdock can't handle a simple thing such as trying to tell the computer the monitor is disconnected....everything goes haywire. I have a Nvidia
card. I even bought DisplayFusion, and though I bought it for other reasons, I was really hoping it could help me with this....it does not in the least. The shortcuts don't even work, so even though I set it to bring all windows to my primary monitor on win+shift+right,
or whatever, it doesn't ever happen.
Then I have this other weird, infuriating problem, where a lot, or MOST
windows, if they don't appear on the screen I have off, they appear underneath my taskbar, which is on the top of my screen where it belongs, and I have never been able to fix this either. This is not something I can do anything about, either, about 80% of
the time. Most of the windows don't show up in the aero peek, so I can't right click & move as I mentioned before. I'm going crazy, and honestly I don't want to have to order a 25 ft dvi & an hdmi-dvi adapter to switch my main monitor & TV just
to fix this seemingly SIMPLE problem that could be avoided by giving us more control over our
OWN computers.....especially if this might not even fix the problem! I'm just at a loss...does anyone anywhere know what I can do? I swear though, if you try to tell me to go into screen resolution settings (more correctly known as DISPLAY
SETTINGS) and to set my primary monitor blah blah blah, I will punch a baby. Learn how to read, people. If you don't get it, don't respond with your half-baked suggestions. However, I really & truly appreciate the
REAL help & REAL suggestions from people who do understand the issue here. You people rock.

Multiple monitor DPI Issues (Desktop not Metro)

Hi,
I have a Lenovo Yoga 2 pro with Win 8.1, which has an ultra high resolution (3,200X1,800) and I am using it with a Targus docking station. In order to see things, I have the custom DPI scaling set at 250%. Here is the problem, when i use the docking
station with an external monitor that has a maximum of 1900X1200, Metro looks nice, but anything on the desktop (office and other desktop only programs), everything is HUGE and unusable. If I try to set DPI scaling for multiple monitors, I can no longer
use my custom 250% DPI for the Lenovo, instead, I am given a slider that makes the external monitor look nice, but when the laptop is removed, it is so small that I'd need a magnifying glass to see. If I want to use a docking station, I have to change
the DPI scaling every time I switch between being docked and as a standalone, which requires me to go through all of the steps to switch and then log out and log back in. Is there a way to have custom DPIs for each monitor? I think this will only
become a bigger problem as more companies develop higher resolution devices.
Thanks,
Dean

Same issue here. I have looked on a lot of forums, and there are a lot of people who just don't understand the issue - offering completely irrelevant advice!
As with a number of others on this thread, I have a Surface Pro 3... fantastic machine, and beautiful display. But connect my external 1080x1920 24" display, and everything is too large on the external... so as with everyone else, I have to set the
Change the size of all items option in display settings, set it to the smallest value, then log out, and log back in. That fixes the external display, but...
Having to make this setting change every time I connect or disconnect to an external monitor is annoying enough... but having to log out, and then log back in to see the change is ridiculous!
But what REALLY annoys me is that I like to use extended display mode - I love to work with two monitors - my lapyop and external display side by side. With the scaling set to lowest, so that the external display looks correct, the Surface Pro 3 screen is
just unusable - its too small, and gives me a headache trying to use it. It makes me feel like an old man complaining that "owwww its too small for my old eyes!".
I realise that this is a Windows issue - but heck, if the Surface Pro 3 is really the tablet to replace my laptop, this flaw in Windows makes the SP3 a NON laptop replacement. Using dual monitor setups with my portable is essential to how I work.
I almost can't believe that in 2014 Windows still does not have proper per monitor PPI settings. Technology has landed a probe on a bloody comet for crying out loud - why can't Windows have proper UI scaling per monitor??!!
What really scares me is that I dont think this is a simple fix for MS, and it may be some time before we see this resolved... but here's hoping Microsoft are already working on s solution.
I'd like to see a Microsoft representative give us an official update on this issue... Hello? Are you out there?

You cannot shadow a session with multiple monitors enabled in Windows Server 2008 R2

Searching through the forums (and according to KB2484290) it appears that there is no solution to this problem. We are rolling out thin clients that are using dual monitors exclusively and we were very surprised to find out that we couldn't shadow
sessions with dual monitors (which to us means that we can't shadow ANY sessions). This now completely changes our approach to managing these devices.
We are running Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 with Remote Desktop Services installed. The thin clients are running Windows Embedded Standard 7 with the latest updates / RDP client. All steps have been followed to ensure that the apropriate settings and
permissions have been set up to allow access into the session.
We tested by unchecking the RDP setting “use all my monitors for the remote session”, with that setting disabled shadowing worked
Questions:
1. KB2484290 is from Dec 2010 - It's now April 2012, is there a workaround / hotfix for this issue that will allow us to shadow sessions using the native Microsoft tools?
2. Are there any recommended alternatives (software)? Free/Paid - doesn't matter we just need something that will work. I'm sure there are a few options out there but I am looking for suggestions for what people have used in the past that worked
best for them to help us narrow down the choices.

Hi,
In my experience, so far, the workaround is Remote Assistance, Remote Assistance supports multiple monitors, and is the presently recommended solution if you need this functionality. Remote Assistance is a Windows Server Feature that must be explicitly installed
on Windows Server 2008 R2; it is already installed with the client versions of the operating system.

Feature Request - Better Multiple Monitor Support

Lightroom's support for a second display has definitely helped my workflow. I hope the team will consider adding more flexible multiple monitor support in version 4. Here's why.
I've recently experimented with running one of my three screens in portrait mode. When this screen hosts Lightroom's secondary display window in Loupe view, my verticals finally get equal real estate for editing. While I've not done hard statistics on my library, I know more than 50% of my imagery is in portrait orientation.
I'd like to see LR V4 support three or more screens so I could set up as follow:
Screen 1 - main lightroom interface, would not need to be calibrated, for controls and navigation
Screen 2 - Portrait orientation, loupe view - this would be a calibrated display, all develop changes to verticals would be judged on this screen
Screen 3 - Landscape orientation, loupe view - another calibrated display, all develop changes to horizontals would be judged on this screen
If Adobe could make the app intelligent enough to route the image to the correct screen based on orientation (recognizing and respecting cropping that could change orientation) my edit sessions would certainly speed up and I could maximize the productivity of multiple screens.
I'd be happy with this, but I'm also stymied by the need to switch back to Library mode to tag images when my primary workflow has me in develop. Ultimately everything depends on the quality of the image. Before I invest in image-specific meta data, I have to process or at least "test-process" an image. IMO the Quick Develop panel is useless, once you become accustomed to the granular control of the develop sliders, it just doesn't cut it.
In the three monitor setup I described above I'd love to be able to configure screen 1, with a combination of panels from Library and Develop, so I could stay "develop centric" with immediate access to keywording and meta. The two additional screens would intelligently handle image display.
I think this might speed my workflow by 33% and having just returned from a Tour de France project that generated 23,000 images I need all the productivity help I can get.

Thanks for all those votes Rob. Now we just need to get the other 999,999 on board.
Actually, this topic has come up a lot on this forum. At this point, I think we just need to get Adobe on board.
VeloDramatic wrote:
There may be another thread for this one additional thought. If Adobe does improve multiple monitor support, we should be able to optimize our previews for those screens. Even after prerendering 1:1 previews there are issues with DEVELOP doing its own thing (I believe) each time a new image is loaded. I make extensive use of the PREVIOUS button moving through my shoots and there's always a lag of one or two seconds while the develop preview loads before the button is active. In a desktop environment where multiple screens allow landscape and portrait images to be displayed full screen I'd argue that 100% of the host screen resolution would be the ideal preview. Hope that made sense.
Yes, faster switching would be nice. I'm not sure what that would take. As it stands, there's like "9" previews generated when you do 1:1s - 100% down to tiny thumbnails. Still, one at exact monitor size that does not need to be resized at all does seem like it would be the fastest - I'm a bit on a limb though at this point.

Let's Be Honest / Save Time: Lenovo T430s (NVIDIA) DOES NOT Support Multiple Monitors

There have been a few comments / complaints / articles around the web regarding the T430s and difficulties using multiple monitors.
But since this capabilitiy is clearly documented in all of Lenovo's specifications and marketing literature, I went ahead and bought an i7, NVIDIA, SSD, T430s with the docking station and all the bells and whistles to facilitate 3 or even 4 monitors.
Well please listen and let's be clear: IT DOES NOT WORK. Therefore, to be clear:
DO NOT BUY THIS MACHINE AND DOCK IF YOU WANT IT TO LIVE UP TO ITS MULTI MONITOR PROMISE.
In the two weeks since FedEx arrived, here is the deal:
1) I fussed around with the dock and monitors at home and the office to no avail, for most of TWO weekends. (I am not a beginner).
2) Then, I spoke to Lenovo in Atlanta's tech support for THREE HOURS. No results
3) I spoke to Lenovo's "premium support" (paid) for FOUR HOURS. No results.
4) I consulted with a 3rd party expert on mulitple monitors who was kind enough to remote into my machine for another HOUR. No results.
5) Muliple parties have confirmed that yes, all hardware is working and yes, everything can be seen in device manager, and yes, the NVIDA card is properly switched on in the BIOS, yes I bought the i7 version etc.
6) And just in case, yes, we wiped the drive clean for a factory reset, yes we unistalled and reinstalled all the drivers and yes, we even deleted the Lenovo driver just in case the NVIDIA driver was newer or better and yes, we double checked the settings in the BIOS again.
7) Yes, we tried every connector in the dock AND the laptop: VGA, DVI, DP and mini DP - in EVERY possible combination.
And NO, IT STILL DOESN'T WORK. AT ALL. Two screens, take your pick, but THAT'S IT.
Finally, not one but TWO technicians asked me to not quote them (so I wont mention any names) but that in their opinion IT JUST DOESNT WORK AT ALL, EVER, despite Lenovo's claims / insistance that it is configured for 3 and even 4 monitors.
So the final conclusion was only that Lenovo must have rushed this T430 spec / configuration / capability to market (including the glossy brochures!) before figuring out that something is missing in the handshake between the mother board and the NVIDIA card?
Or in the firmware re swithing between the Intel (internal) and NVIDA card?
Or something else which prevents the NVIDIA card from seeing the ports on the laptop or the dock?
In summary 1) you get NOTHING from the NVIDIA upgrade and with respect to more than 2 monitors, IT JUST DOES NOT WORK, AT ALL, EVER, PERIOD and END OF STORY.
I too am a die hard old school Thinkpad enthusiast and with the company's service could match their classic products.
I have an X201 that I generall love, but would appreciate more speed, an SSD and I have to drive at least 3 external monitors, using at least 1920 x 1080 resolution.
Perhaps a W series Thinkpad would work, but I also travel so going up to the T430s was already a sacrifice vs the small size of the X201.
There are some 3rd party solutions but they are expensive and not so sure how plug and play they are with 3 or more monitors - what the T430s and Mini Dock 3.0 are SUPPOSED TO DO. But they dont.
Not giving up yet, but this has been a real bummer.
PS
Lenovo was very focused, efficient, and uncompromising when charging my CC for "premium" support.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Thors,
Thank you and happy to report, albeit after all the hours and now weekend number 3:
1) For the moment, I am able to repeat the 3 screen performance using mini DP from the Thinkpad and 2 DPs from the dock to the external monitors
AND
2) For the first time ever, I am just now for the first time running the 3rd external monitor from the VGA port on the dock.
That is what I meant by using the various ports on the dock, so that the Thinkpad can simply be docked and undocked without connecting the mini DP - the purpose of a dock obviously. As stated in other threads and articles, various configurations of the dock ports supposedly work to achieve 3 external screens, but until today was not able to do this.
That is the good news and thank you for all help.
The bad news is I stil have no clear idea why this has been so difficult, or where the problem lives that consumed so many hours of my own time and many hours with Lenovo tech support as stated above.
Some success seems to have happened only after more than one set of LONG updates to Windows 7 (?)
If I can replicate this set up the office (where I have 3 of the same monitors) I will be almost there.
Thank you again to all for help and support.

Windows 7 and Multiple Monitor Issues

Alright, I have spent the past 3 days searching these forums as well as on Microsoft's support pages and all of Google to find the answer to my issue and it seems as though I'm the only one who is running into this problem.
I have a 15 inch Macbook Pro with the GeForce 9600M GT Nvidia Graphics card with the latest version of Mac OSX and Bootcamp installed on it. I have Windows 7 installed in bootcamp. I just purchased a Mini DisplayPort to VGA cord with a VGA cord so as to connect my computer to my Sony Bravia HDTV to use as a second monitor. I plug in the cords, plug them into my TV, and put it into the proper input and it works like a charm. Then I go and boot up in bootcamp under Windows 7, plug in the cord, and my screen gets to the "starting windows" logo and then it goes black. I push ever button, I try control alt delete, nothing. I have to hold down the power button to turn off the computer and then turn it back on.
I turn it on, boot up into Windows 7, let it load, then plug in the cord, and the computer display instantly goes black, again, and yet nothing displays on the TV. Again, I try everything to no avail, so I power it off and back on. I go through this at least 10 times to no avail. I finally give up and try again the next day.
Next day, I plug it in, and the monitor stays up, but yet nothing is displayed on the TV. I go to my resolution settings in Windows, and go to the multiple monitors tab, and select every possible option (extend, duplicate, etc) and nothing will display on my TV. I try to change the settings to which it responds with "unable to save display settings" and nothing changes. I attempt to enter the nvidia program and make changes that way. The TV is detected, but when I select it and attempt to apply anything, no changes take effect and I am left with only the laptop display. Keep in mind I uninstalled and reinstalled all of the video drivers and such.
Finally I get fed up so I purchase a Mini DisplayPort to DVI adapted and a DVI to HDMI adapter. I try again. Again in OSX it launches immediately, no problems. I go back into Windows, and immediately I'm dealing with the instant black screen.
I'm going crazy over here trying to figure this out. I know it's possible to do this because I've seen people on youtube doing this and again it works on OSX so why the heck won't it work? If anyone has any idea what's going on here please help me out. Thanks.

JonMarx... I'm having the exact same problem. I'm in the exact same situation as you are. I'm going mad, and it's only by divine providence that I've finally located the only other person who knows what I've been going through. I've spent at least 20 hours trying to get this started back up, to no avail.
I had the secondary display working peachy for a while, long enough to configure everything to be exactly how I wanted it. I unplugged the monitor from the computer just to see what would happen, and that's when the problems started. I managed to get it to work one last time for a brief period a few hours later, but the way it just clicked on made it feel too good to be true.
I've had a wierd problem with a phantom display as well. The display will frequently show up as being available in both the nVIDIA panel and the windows settings, but if I apply the settings, they won't go through. I got a few screenshots of it the last time it happened.
I was just about to reinstall windows completely, but it seems that I'll just run into the same problem again if I do... Here's to hoping a solution is found.

That's why you're only getting a mirrored display and don't have the option
to extend your desktop. The Microsoft driver doesn't support anything other than mirroring.
Check Windows Update to see if you're offered an update to your display
adapter or try to download and install the latest driver from Intel.

Amdcccle (Catalyst Control Center) not saving multiple monitor setting

I followed the wiki to the letter, but I cannot get any x window session to save the changes I make in amdcccle. All I am trying to do is get multiple monitors configured, and it works great with the catalyst control center but it never saves these settings.
I have done the following:
gksu amdcccle
gksudo amdcccle
also:
sudo aticonfig -f --initial=dual-head --screen-layout=right
and many other interations of aticonfig. The -dtop option complains that it doesnt work with RandR enabled.
I got this working a few weeks ago but can't remember what I did. If amdcccle could actually save the current configuration to file that would solve the issue but it simply will not.

Hello insco6750,
When you updated the drivers did you install over top of existing software or uninstall beforehand?
First we should try ripping everything ATI off of the system, including software, drivers and CCC. You should be able to uninstall everything through Add/remove programs.
After you remove everything reboot and let windows reinstall it's own drivers and software. You don't need CCC to do dual monitors so we can do testing without it.
Once you let windows install see if your HDMI output no longer works when you switch to the TV.
Post back your results after completing this.

RC and Multiple Monitors

2012 R2
So we are using Remote control but not useful on systems with multiple monitors, is there a way to make it work like "Offer Remote Assistance" does?
Thanks.

The options that fern pointed out above are on the RC client itself -- they are not client settings. They are under the "View" menu.
I've never had an explicit issue with seeing multiple monitors either; however, if you are, have you tried changing the screen resolution on the target system?
There's really no configuration to be had here, the best we can do is offer possible work-arounds.
If this is a major issue, you should contact Microsoft support or consider purchasing a third-party remote control tool. You can also file a change request on Connect so that it gets into their queue as a possible future change.

Touchsmart and Multiple Monitors

Has anyone out there actually connected an HP Touchsmart to multiple monitors? I am aware that USB-to-DVI or USB-to-VGA adapters are required. However, I learned from one adapter manufacturer out there (StarTech) that there are known issues with these adapters and the Touchsmart. Has anyone had success? esp with synchronizing video? What brand/type of adapter did you use? My goal is to get one Touchsmart and 4 extra monitors working together. thanks

When requesting assistance, please provide the complete model name and/or product number of the HP computer in question. HP/Compaq makes thousands of models of computers that are all different. Without this information it may be difficult or impossible to assist you in resolving your issue.
You shouldn't need to disable the "Touch" feature to enable "Extended Display" mode... however if don't disable it, you may have issues getting to the extended display or you may experience unpredictable results. Using a mouse should allow you to reach the alternate screen. Depending on your hardware, there may or may not be an option to disable "Touch (Use your finger as an input)" in the Windows Control Panel. You can, however, disable the touchsceen input device in the Windows Device Manager as shown below;

Can I split to multiple monitors?

I just bought a Mac Mini and I want to split out to multiple monitors.
Preferably I want to go out with a VGA and DVI or 2 VGA's if possible. Can it split to multiple monitors?
I am trying using a presentation program to send the signal to multiple wall monitors. Kinda like a hotel with the convention monitors...
Thanks for any help!

Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
The new Mac mini has two video ports and supports using two displays at once. There is a mini-DisplayPort and an HDMI port. You will need the appropriate adapters for the two ports to convert the signals to either DVI or VGA. Apple and a number of 3rd party venders sell these adapters.

Change number in bom

I want to make change number in CS02 and CS20 as mandatory. Pls suggest the procedure..

1.Change number is used to create / change BOM with respect to a change number. The reason for using this field is, in many organizations, they use the concept of ECM, where-in each change needs to be monitored & logged. So a change number is first created in CC01 & then the same is assigned in cs01.
2.This change number must be allowed to use for the business object BOM,which means whilke
creating the change number you have to include the settings for usage in BOM.
3.Using the change number we can trace the history of the BOM.
4.History includes the created date,changes made,it might be an additon of componet or a change in
the component details,a deletion of compoent.
5.There are certain config settings to make this field as mandatory,otherwise the system will allow you
to create or change a BOM without change number in CS01 or cs02...

[SOLVED]Looking for a tiling manager which supports multiple monitors

I use musca and I absolutely have no problems with it other than this :
http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php? … 04#p774104
I also tried emailing the musca distribution list but it bounced, so I am not sure how actively it is being maintained.
So I am on the lookout for a new tiling window manager. I know Xmonad supports multiple monitors, but I do not know haskell and I was hoping to find something else as well. Xmonad is also not a manual tiler.
So let me know if anyone of you knows of a tiler that has the above support.
EDIT : I have already looked at the Comparison of Tiling Window Managers over at the wiki. Infact I was the one who added Musca's entry in that table.

To change the border of the current client, you can use bn to use the normal border (including window title), bp to use a 1-pixel border (no window title) and bb to make the client borderless. There is also bt which will toggle the different border styles.

HP ENVY 700-000t multiple monitor setup

I have an hp envy 700-000t, and I want to setup up a second monitor. When the monitor is plgged in, my computer doesnt detect it, and it reads no signal. Is there a compatibility issue with my computer?

Test your monitor on another PC to make sure that these components work successfully. Toggling the F4 key will electrically contact the second display. Press f4 to alternate the computer screen image between 4 display states:● PC screen only: View the screen image on the computer only.● Duplicate: View the screen image simultaneously on both the computer and externaldevice.● Extend: View the screen image extended across both the computer and external device.● Second screen only: View the screen image on the external device only.Each time you press f4, the display state changes. After each toggle, you will need to go to Window 8 setup multiple monitors and see if your second monitor is discovered.

From your comment, it seems that your user are using multiple monitor with launching the RemoteApp program through a TS Web Access portal. If this is the case then sorry to inform you that there is no way for him\her to turn this functionality off for a particular
client computer from client side.
But if manually pushed RDP file then client can edit the rdp file and can solve the issue and if the user doesn’t have the enough rights then administrator can also edit his .rdp file by adding “span monitors:i:0” inside the
RDP file.
Refer for more information.
