2nd monitor question

Did adobe remove the option to use your second monitor for preview? I don't see it as an option and wanted to make sure there was'nt something I was missing.

This is a tricky issue because things change with almost every version of your graphics card driver and Premiere Pro version.
See the Monitor page for a comprehensive list of user experiences. Hopefully one of them will match yours.

Final Cut Pro 2nd monitor not working properly?

Been here before a long time ago, can't remember how it was resolved.
Working in a new edit suite, FCP Studio. Two new Samsung monitors (not my choice). I want one to be my playback monitor.
I set:
Final Cut Pro > Audio/Video Settings
> Digital Cinema Desktop Full Screen
> View > External Video > All Frames
But all I'm getting is a black frame on the 2nd monitor.
They've also got one of those very flat alluminum keyboards ... where F12 becomes a sound control. I'd love to know how I can change the function key to work as an FCP action / 2nd monitor toggling on and off.
That's two questions. Would be most appreciative of an answer for either.

Hey Andy,
I did the first half of your suggestion, but not the second half. Heading down to the studio this morning ... set up in a tiny white chapel looking out across the silvery North Atlantic ... and will try the second half of your suggestion. Will also see if there are two graphics cards installed in the Mac Pro. Will also check out the Window > Arrange in FCP (something I should have checked first off).
I talked to a filmmaker who previously worked on the system, only to discover he never uses the second monitor as a full screen, but rather as a large 'bin'. Interesting.
If worse comes to worse and I can't solve it I suspect I could size the canvas window to super large and drag it over to the second monitor.
Will post back when I've tried the latest suggestions ...
Thanks you mucho guys,
Ben

Preview Playback on 2nd Monitor

I am brand new to the Final Cut AND Mac World - just got my first Mac with Final Cut Studio two days ago.
I am having some problems getting preview playback on my 2nd monitor in RAW or full screen, neither work. What I get is the current frame of the timeline, no moving video and I get audio playback.
I have View -> All Frames checked (as opposed to single frame) but I get the same results as if single frame were checked.
My primary monitor with the standard final cut layout is an Apple 20" cinema, and the 2nd monitor is an older 17" Samsung.
I get the exact same result if I switch the full screen preview playback over to my Apple display. Just the current frame with audio playback.
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated!

How Do I Add 2nd Monitor using AppleTV?

I use a mid - 2012 Mac Pro; run Mavericks MacOS X 10.9.5.
1. I would like to know how to connect my SONY TV as a second monitor wirelessly using AppleTV.
2. Once 2nd monitor is connected:
3. What do I do to use the cursor and keyboard on the 2nd monitor?
4. How do I reply to an answered question for more info, or to thank someone?

Hey again Angel,
It is the latter:
If your Mac supports AirPlay Mirroring, an AirPlay Mirroring status icon appears in the menu bar when an Apple TV is on the same network as your Mac.
OS X Mavericks: Wirelessly mirror your Mac screen to your HDTV
https://support.apple.com/kb/PH14375
So the AirPlay icon will only be seen on your Mac when an Apple TV is present on the same network as your Mac. You may also be interested in more information about AirPlay, which can be found here:

HOw to add a 2nd monitor to my DX4380- UR22

I only have my HDMI open and my monitr is an older version using a SVGA
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Hello there ArsenalOC1886!: to answer this question specfically
why not buy a cable that has the HDMI on one end{the PC} & a SVGA at the other(the 2nd monitor)
or get a HDMI\SVGA adapter at your local computer shop
with plug & play being as advanced as it is itshould work unless it's incompatible
good luck
hope this enlightens, clarifies & helps

Can the 2nd monitor be an extended desktop?

i know its a silly and simple question but im new to hooking up a second monitor. So if i get the right connector from the apple store and hook up a second monitor can it be an extended desktop or will it only be a mirrored image?

Can the 2nd monitor be an extended desktop?
Yes.

Using 2 monitors. I can't get my Layers Pallet to move to the 2nd monitor

I'm using 2 monitors. I can't get my Layers Pallet to move to the 2nd monitor screen. It is simply locked to the right side of my 1st monitor. A solution would be great. Sorry if it's a noob question.
Thanks for your time.
Monty

No problem. We've all had newbie questions at one time or another.
However, I am going to have to put on my clairvoyant hat and guess you are running Photoshop 10.0.1 (CS3). :/
In CS3, do NOT attempt to move the palette well, i.e. the dark gray zone above the palettes. That you cannot move.
Instead, grab each palette individually by the light gray bar just at the top of each palette.

2nd Monitor issue

I've been using a 2nd Monitor (ViewSonic 1080p) with my MacBook for several years. After recent upgrade to Snow Leopard, MacBook no longer recognizes the 2nd monitor in the Preferences. Monitor/cables are fine and work with another laptop OK. Do I need a software upgrade?, or will I be forced to purchase an Apple monitor. Puzzled

Here are the specs for your HP Pavilion p6-2029uk Desktop Computer. According to the specs this model has Intergrated AMD HD Graphics that have been disabled by the factory installed discrete PCI Express x16 AMD Radeon HD 6450. The DVI-D port and VGA port behind the "plastic covers" will not work unless the discrete graphics card is removed.
Assuming the discrete AMD Radeon HD 6450 card has a DVD-I port and an HDMI port, you should be able to connect the monitors as follows;
Computer > HDMI-to-DVI cable > HP 2011 monitor
Computer > DVI-to-VGA adapter > VGA cable > secondary monitor
Alternatively, you could remove the discrete AMD Radeon HD 6450 card and use the integrated onboard DVI-D and VGA ports as follows;
Computer > DVI cable > HP 2011 monitor
Computer > VGA cable > secondary monitor
If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

2nd Monitor ICC profile in Acrobat 9

Hi,
I have problem with iMac24" dual monitor setup and Acrobat 9 Pro. I can't get the second monitor ICC profile applied to the pdf document when dragged to the the second monitor. Had the same problem with PhotoShop CS4. I spent several day to figure out why the second monitor looks totally over saturated with PS CS4 (looked fine with PS CS3) and yes indeed the solution was to turn OFF OpenGL in PS preferences. Still have the same problem with Acrobat 9 Pro. When the document is dragged to other monitor the ICC profile of that monitor is not applied. Any idea how to get that working as I can't find the OpenGL setting in Acrobat 9 . I have iMac24" and HP LP2475w as a secondary monitor which is wide gamut monitor which is far too over saturated without proper ICC. Any ideas?

Jao...
Does the secondary monitor always assume it will open in the monitor which WinXP defines in settings as '2'?
The reason I ask, is that if I have the secondary monitor open as "full screen" it opens on the 2nd monitor.
However, I have a slightly different set up. I have my primary LR space stretched some into the 2nd monitor, so that the right hand panels are on the second screen. This gives me a larger space to view the images on the main screen. When I open the secondary LR space, it is not full screen, but sized to just fit in the rest of the available space on the second monitor....and I usually use this space for the 'grid' of thumbnails.
My concern is that if the secondary LR space is even slightly larger than the available space on the secondary monitor, it will pop up in the middle of the primary monitor. After much trial and error, I found the sizing solution and it works....
However, since it seems to open either in #1 or #2 screen, I still have this nagging question....and there is no way I know to query LR to know what ICC profile is being used.
Thanks...JOHN

2nd monitor ICC profile?

When using the dual monitor support in LR2, if it is opened in the 2nd monitor, is it aware of the different icc profile for this monitor or does it use the profile of the primary monitor?
Can you manually change the profile used?
Can you interrogate LR (main screen and/or dual screen) to see what profile is being used?
I am using WinXP, but the video card I use looks like two cards and windows has a different default profile for each. Many cards do not do that, which is where being able to manually enter an icc profile would be useful.

Displays - gather windows from 2nd monitor? OR - turn off detected display?

I use my Sony HDTV (960XBR) via HDMI as a 2nd monitor sometimes (also use a 17" LCD sometimes). When not using the Sony for the Mac (like actually watching TV!), the Mac still detects it as a display and allows any program windows I'd placed there to remain on that display, even though it's not actually displaying the Mac signal.
Question: is there any way to "gather" all program windows onto the primary display? Or "turn off" a detected display from the Mac?
Thanks!

Most applications support the following: under the Window menu, you'll see a "Bring All to Front" command. If you hold down the Option key, that changes to "Arrange in Front". Choose that to have all windows arranged in front. That should probably force all windows to the main screen.
Hope this helps.....

Preview opens in 2nd monitor

I have a 2nd monitor above my main monitor.
Whenever Preview opens a file, it puts it on the 2nd screen.....only when it is placed "above" the main. Sides and bottom work fine.
Trashed caches, preferences, permissions, etc. Obviously, I have moved the monitor arrangement.
(I have seen this issue on the boards, but no one answers the question.)

That was the first thing I did. And it should have worked.
I also

swapped Main monitors(switched where the menu bar shows up)
nada.

Pavilion Slimline 400-034 Windows 8 not detecting 2nd Monitor

Hello, I have a Windows HP computer, and I recently bought a 2nd monitor for my birthday, link click here. I have the same monitor for my first, and that works perfectly fine, when I bought the 2nd monitor, I realized I have a different port, and it's not a DVI-I, it's a DVI-D. So I bought a VGA to DVI-D connector, so I plugged my VGA into the connector and then plug the DVI-D into the tower. I turned on my computer, and the 2nd monitor wasn't detected, the DVI-D connected one, but the first one was. The monitor was set into mode auto, so it detected any working inputs, DVI, VGA, HDMI, and another. The 2nd monitor works thought while into the DVI-I port, but neither work in the DVI-D port. Any help (: ??

Here are the specs for you HP Pavilion Slimline 400-034 Desktop Computer and here is the user guide for your Insignia™ - 24" LED HD "NS-24EM51A14" Monitors. Based on the specs of your computer, it has one DVI-D (digital only) output and one DVI-I (digital and analog) output as shown below;
#3 - DVI-D (digital only) #4 - DVI-I (digital and analog)
According the user guide for your Insignia monitors... VGA, DVI-D, and HMDI inputs are available. Using a passive DVI-to-VGA adapter will work on the DVI-I port because it supplies both digital and analog signals. Using a passive DVI-to-VGA adapter will NOT work on the DVI-D port because it only supplies digital signals. Please remove both DVI-to-VGA adapters and VGA cables and replace them both with DVI-D cables. You can purchase these cables online and at most local retail store such as Fry's, Best Buy, Walmart, Target, Radio Shack, Staples, Newegg, Office Depot, etc. Once you have purchased two DVI-D cables, please connect your hardware as follows;
Computer ---> DVI-D cable ---> Monitor #1
Computer ---> DVI-D cable ---> Monitor #2
If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

Use iPad as a 2nd monitor or graphics tablet with Photoshop/Wacom Bamboo Pen?

Can iPad be used as a 2nd monitor or graphics tablet with Photoshop/Wacom Bamboo Pen tablet?
I called Wacom as asked this question but the guy was clueless, and I'm sure they'd rather have you spend $1000 on their Cintiq instead of $29.95 on a Pen.... I figure I'll get more use out of an iPad and save around $400...
Or maybe this is jsut a far fetched idea...
