A little help about multiple monitors...

I’ll try to explain what I need help on in the simplest way possible.
I connected my macbook pro to another LCD monitor I have at home. That way when I work on sites I can have one thing on my monitor and another thing on my Mac. My question is...
I see that on WINDOWS the whole program (Dreamweaver or Photoshop, illustrator blah blah blah) is in one window. Which means I can drag it on one monitor or back to the other. How do I make those programs get on one window like WINDOWS(OS). I can drag my browsers, iTunes, steam and other applications between each monitor but I cannot do it with the adobe products.
Any help?

Hi sppanch007. Welcome to the Adobe user-to-user forums!
You can certainly drag components of the Dreamweaver application, such as panels (and panel groups) and document windows and drag them between your monitors.
In doing this, you could create a custom workspace that has all the panels and such in the desired locations and then save it by going to Window > Workspace Layout > New Workspace.
There is a "Dual Screen" layout you could try to give you a starting point.
A little more info about re-arranging the workspace:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/dreamweaver/cs/using/WS8599BC5C-3E44-406c-9288-C3B3BBEB5E88.ht ml
If you want the application to function differently, such as to have its own application frame (like applications on Windows do), then please let the Dreamweaver development team know:

Help with multiple monitors

Hi Guys,
I've run in to a bit of an issue with my MP. I run three monitors off two GT120 cards. They work great in OSX and did work fine in Win7. We've just moved and when Ifired up the mac again at the new place the three monitors work fine in OSX still but when I bootcamp in to Win7 it will only work with one monitor if I power up the other two it either rearranges the screens around of blanks them all so that I end up with a black screen that I can move the mouse pointer around on and the other screens say they have no input and switch off. Occasionally win7 shuts down completely!
It's got me baffled.......I don't know windows that well to start rummaging around too much and OSX is working fine so the hardware is OK. HELP!!
Cheers
Mike
P.S. Everything is up to date.............in fact nothing has changed since the whole set-up was moved to the new house.

I think I have it worked out. I put the Kona card in "input passthrough" mode and all seems to work just fine. I had it in MacIntosh desktop and that was causing my problem
If any other suggestions I am sure open to them.
Thanks
John

Need help about external monitor

Hi, I recently purchased a LCD monitor. And I use it as eMac's external monitor because I don't like the CRT monitor on the eMac. The problem is how can I turn off the monitor on the eMac and just use my external monitor as the main one???

Po-Nan Lin,
Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
There's no switch or software patch that will blank the eMac's CRT while leaving the video out active. Short of ripping open the eMac and cutting the CRT's video cable (which not only obviously voids the warrenty but carries a definite safety risk due to the CRT's charge), there's no way to do what you want.

Question about multiple monitors

I am planning on using 20" and 23" cinema displays on a Mac Pro. I don't care too much about the quality of the graphics so I was planning on getting a single NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GT. But would that single card be enough to power the 20 and 23? The store is confusing because it says a 30" and 20 or 23. But does one have to be the 30"? or would other sizes be compatible together? Do I need 2 graphics cards? thanks!

I presume you are talking about something other than the MacBook or iMac listed in your profile? Because you cannot put a 7300GT in either of those computers.

Help with multiple monitors and a Kona card

I am trying to get a multi window setup but after I added the Kona card my browser keeps defaulting to the video monitor. I can access it with a mouse but is very inconvenient. How do I get FCP to ignore that monitor which is being driven by the Kona card??
Thanks

How about a little help out there Lenovo...??

I've posted 2 recent posts about my laptop screen background turning from white to blue..and have yet to get even 1 response!!!
I could use a little help here and I thought that this forum would be the place for it...is there a reason I'm not getting any replies ??

Hi rllenovo,
please don't forget that this is a peer to peer forum, provided by Lenovo in order that members may seek assistance from others and share their experiences. There is a Lenovo presence here but unfortunately they are not able to address every issue and therefore there is no guarantee you will receive a direct response.
It is possible that no other members are experiencing, or have experienced the same as you, or if they have, haven't been online since you posted. Sometimes in forums you need to bring a little patience with you. Alternatively you have the option of contacting Lenovo support.
It maybe that because you chose a user name with Lenovo in it that other members think you work for, or are associated with Lenovo and maybe felt that other channels of assistance would be available to you and hence offered no comment???
edit; typo

VMware Fusion question - Multiple Monitors

I apologize if this is in the wrong area, but I am desperate for some help. I have also posted this same question in the VMware communities but I have not had any luck with anyone responding yet.
It seems that I am having an issue with my virtual machine (windows XP) viewing in full screen or unity across my multiple monitor setup on my Mac Pro. Every time I go to view in full screen or unity I get a VMware popup warning/error that reads:
The virtual machine "Windows XP Professional" is configured for a smaller display size than the one your Mac is currently using. VMware Fusion needs to shut down your virtual machine to enable support for your Mac's display size in Full Screen. Do you want to shut down this virtual machine now?
I have two options, one to shut down, or one to go into full screen. If I go into full screen, full screen works with the correct resolution and everything looks great except its only in the one monitor (not the multiple monitor). If I shut down and restart the virtual machine and try to go to full screen I get the same error.
The VMware tools have been installed and I did go to the view, use all displays in full screen opiton.
My current setup is a mac pro with 3 monitors using 2 NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT Video Cards.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks

I found a link to a VMWare Knowledge Base entry about specifying video ram in Fusion 1. Maybe it is still true.

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.

How do you center dialogs with multiple monitors. code, best practices

My existing code will take the pixel size of the java app, and using the size of the dialog, it will center dialogs perfectly in the center of the application. This is great for single monitors, but when multiple monitors are introduced it is a problem. With dual monitor, the dialog is split in half between the two monitors.
I should be able to determine which pixel/frame initiated the user's action; and then i am hoping to get some code or direction on:
1. how to determine which monitor the user initiated the action on (knowing the px or frame location, how would i do this)
2. how to center dialog on that monitor
if possible, it would be appreciated if you can provide some code; i cant find anything on determing pixel size of monitors and this seems to be a little bit of a project to do from scratch. open source, 3rd party, insight, guidance, all is appreciated. thanks !

This code may help:
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.*;
public class OptionPaneDemo {
    ActionListener al = new ActionListener() {
        public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent evt) {
            Component comp = (Component) evt.getSource();
            JFrame f = (JFrame) SwingUtilities.windowForComponent(comp);
            showDialogInUpperRightCorner(f);
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        EventQueue.invokeLater(new Runnable(){
            public void run() {
                new OptionPaneDemo().go();
    void go() {
        GraphicsEnvironment ge = GraphicsEnvironment.getLocalGraphicsEnvironment();
        for(GraphicsDevice gd: ge.getScreenDevices()) {
            JButton showDialogButton = new JButton("show the dialog");
            showDialogButton.addActionListener(al);
            JFrame f = new JFrame(gd.getDefaultConfiguration());
            f.getContentPane().add(showDialogButton, BorderLayout.NORTH);
            f.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
            f.pack();
            centerWindow(f);
            f.setVisible(true);
    void centerWindow(Window w) {
        Rectangle windowBounds = w.getBounds();
        GraphicsConfiguration gc = w.getGraphicsConfiguration();
        Rectangle screenBounds = gc.getBounds();
        int x = screenBounds.x + (screenBounds.width - windowBounds.width)/2;
        int y = screenBounds.y + (screenBounds.height - windowBounds.height)/2;
        w.setLocation(x, y);
    void showDialogInUpperRightCorner(JFrame f) {
        JOptionPane pane = new JOptionPane("Hello, world!");
        JDialog dialog = pane.createDialog(f, "title");
        Rectangle dialogBounds = dialog.getBounds();
        GraphicsConfiguration gc = dialog.getGraphicsConfiguration();
        Rectangle screenBounds = gc.getBounds();
        //int x = screenBounds.x + screenBounds.width - dialogBounds.width;
        //int y = screenBounds.y == 0 ? 1 : screenBounds.y;
        int x = screenBounds.x;
        int y = screenBounds.y + screenBounds.height - dialogBounds.height-1;
        System.out.format("(%d,%d)%n", x, y);
        dialog.setLocation(x, y);
        dialog.setVisible(true);
}

Find monitor instance name , device name , resolution and frequency of multiple monitors (VGA and HDMI)

hi,
In my system multiple monitors are connected (VGA and HDMI). In need to know the
monitor instance name , device name , resolution and frequency of each monitor.. any solution?
i used wm class 'WmiMonitorConnectionParams' to determine Video output technology connection type and InstanceName.
But i didn't get the device name , resolution and frequency of each monitor.??
There are other wmi class like :
WmiMonitorBrightnessEvent
WmiMonitorConnectionParams
WmiMonitorRawEEdidV1Block
WmiMonitorListedFrequencyRanges
WmiMonitorDigitalVideoInputParams
WmiMonitorAnalogVideoInputParams
WmiMonitorID
WmiMonitorBrightnessMethods
WmiMonitorBasicDisplayParams
WmiMonitorColorCharacteristics
WmiMonitorDescriptorMethods
WmiMonitorListedSupportedSourceM…
WmiMonitorBrightness
WmiMonitorColorXYZinCIE
WmiMonitorSupportedDisplayFeatures
WmiMonitorBasicDisplayParams
Win32_VideoController
Win32_VideoConfiguration
Win32_VideoSettings Win32_DisplayControllerConfiguration
Win32_DisplayConfiguration
But unable to determine monitor having its corresponding values? please help me to find a solution .
is there any other method to get multi monitor details?
thank you

Hi sumith,
I read some documents about WmiMonitorConnectionParams class, it should be able to get the video putput technology by the D3DKMDT_VIDEO_OUTPUT_TECHNOLOGY enumeration.
D3DKMDT_VIDEO_OUTPUT_TECHNOLOGY enumeration
So what happens when you are using WmiMonitorConnectionParams class? What prevent you? Anyway, please see a example of using WmiMonitorConnectionParams class, maybe you could get some hints on it.

T410 type 2516-A11 multiple monitor (and cleaning service) question

Hi guys,
I have the above mentioned model. I want to verify my understanding (from reading the forums) is correct regarding the multiple monitor setup.
This model is NOT capable of running 2 external displays + 1 internal laptop display all at the same time. I checked the BIOS and i dont see any mention of nvidia. Is there any way i can get 3 monitors all displaying at same time without purchasing a dock-3 ? I am considering simply buying another laptop (about $300 for a cheap one) instead of spending money on the dock. After all, this laptop is getting old and i need to get ready for some kind of unrecoverable crash. (I do not backup stuff, for lack of time and stuff is not work related).
The second question is on cleaning this laptop. After running 15 hrs a day, all days of the week, for past 2 and half years, this laptop has impressed me with its stability. But i had to buy a laptop cooler to hold the bottom of the laptop because it started getting hot and crashing on me every 2 days (because i run video intense app for much of the time). I am planning to take it to local fry's electronics for taking it apart and getting a good internal cleanup done on this. Is there any precautions i should mention to the fry's technician ? I am planning to backup important files, just in case the laptop dies after that. Would like to hear any stories (good or bad) after a cleaning service on T410 model.
Thanks in advance; i am planning to get this machine rejuvinated during this christmas break.

Hi,
if you remove "encryption mode ciphers aes-ccm tkip" from the radio interface does it help?
it should remain like this:

no ip address
no ip route-cache
encryption vlan 1 mode ciphers aes-ccm tkip
ssid WLAN_Corporate
ssid WLAN_HartKitGuest
