Automatically open AI on second monitor

I have this working in PS, but not AI. I opened up PS and dragged it onto my second monitor. Using a Wacom Cintiq. Now every time I open PS, it just automatically opens on the tablet. I've tried to do this with AI. It doesn't appear to work. Is it just me, or is there a way to make this happen?
Also, working with latest version of AI on Mac with Yosemite.
Thanks in advance!

in the displays 'arrangement' part of system preferences you can define which monitor shows the menu (drag it in the little window to change it). this is a system wide setting so every app will have its menu on that window. it's not possible to have different apps with menus on different screens.
a solution is to learn all the key commands so you don't have refer to the meno often.

Full screen playback on second monitor results in having to force quit Premier if a window opens on the second monitor.

Run into this problem a few times now. If I have full screen playback going to my second monitor, and then I try to do something like link media and the link media window opens on that second monitor I can't figure out a way to get to it. I end up having to force quit. Because the link media window causes all other application buttons to disable while it is open I have not been able to find a solution other than force quitting, reopen and disable full screen playback, open link media window and move it to the other monitor and then again enable full screen playback.
Has anyone run into this? Am I missing an easy solution?

You need to set up your Graphics Card Application first eg A and B Monitors , side by side etc.
In my case..a NVidea Display Application does this from the Control Panel
Then the second monitor will appear in display setting (Premiere).
My second monitor is entirely dedicated to full screen playback display.

On a Mac with two monitors, how do I get a new FF window to open on the second monitor? I can do this on a Windows XP box easily enough but on a Mac FF won't remember the position of a new window. Please help!

I proof websites for a living and workflow is everything. On my 26" main monitor I have FF running the job tracking web site. In this site, there are links to the sites I need to proof. I would like to be able to right click on a URL and select 'open in new window' and have that window open up on my second monitor.

Here's some more info about the router settings:
iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
You should be able to get into the setup of your router by typing the IP address into your browser.
Depending on your router security setup, you might need the MAC address of your iPad, to allow access to your network, if the so called MAC filtering is active.
You can also check the name of your home network if your click on the AirPort icon on your desktop of your MacBook.

Open Images on second monitor by default

Though there are already quite a few threads on this issue
(e.g. here: http://forums.adobe.com/message/1648230#1648230; here: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/369630?start=60&tstart=0 ; and here: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/369928?start=15&tstart=0 );
the behaviour of Photoshop CS4 to always open images on the main monitor by default still wasn't changed with the 11.0.1-Update.
So my request is to simply reinvent the old behaviour all PS-Versions from (at least) PS 3.0 to CS3 had:
open images by default on the monitor THE USER has decided to use as his/her PS-monitor (and not automatically on the System main monitor).

Has this been fixed on Photoshop CS5?
I'll be sticking with CS3 until we get back what used to be default...
(bought CS4 Photoshop upgrade when it came out, went back to using CS3 after a while)

Why when I close iTunes, it automatically opens again 20 seconds after..?

When I close iTunes, it automatically opens again after.. why?

TThe message is a bit deceptive the old libraries need to be upgraded before they can be used. To upgrade quit Aperture select one of the old libraries with the Finder and double click it. This will open Aperture on that library and ask if you want to upgrade it.
WWhile the procedure is safe it is always a good idea to have a backup of the libraries before doing this.

Program/Applications open on phantom second monitor

I used to have a second display connected to the iMac. After upgrading to Lion, I disconnected it as it does not really work in the full screen display with Lion. However, some of my programs that were on the second display still think its on that second display. Despite the fact that there is no second screen attached or configured in Displays control panel.
It is annoying because a program will be open, however, I cannot find the program (other than seeing the menu bar on the top). When I click in the Dock, under OPtions, and show program or move to this screen, then I see it (or when I go to Expose), but I can never drag it permanently to see it on the main screen.
Help!

After many days i found solution:
Run the client and get it set up the way you prefer, or Open your saved RDP file
On the Display tab, choose a non-fullscreen resolution.
On the General tab, click "delete these credentials", if possible.
Click Connect .
You will immediately get a local login dialog. Leave it blank and click
OK .
When you are connected and the remote login dialog appears, drag the window to the desired monitor.
On the remote login dialog, click Cancel . The settings dialog should reappear locally.
On the Display tab, you can now choose fullscreen.
You can now save your session with the Save button on the
General tab, as well as save your login credentials.
Try more times ,worked for me.

How do I get InDesign to open on the second monitor of a two-monitor system?

My computer is connected to two identical monitors. I use them in extended mode. Monitor 1 includes my WIndows desktop; Monitor 2 does not
I want to open my InDesign files on "Monitor 2" which does NOT have impediments like a taskbar that wants to pop up.
By default, InDesign CS6 opens on Monitor 1, the one with the desktop. How do I change that setting?

Exactly what Bob Levine said. Can confirm, running a two monitor display here.

When Skype is open on my second monitor, my .swf runs slowly (30-45 fps).

But when it is minimized or on my first monitor, my .swf runs fine. I'm using Flash Player 11.5.31.137. Upon further investigation in Stencyl it seems every 4 frames something called "Waiting For GPU" spikes up WAY past my limit of 16ms. I am not using Stage3D, either.

Pancenter...
Yes... but I have come across some setups that came with a native SL (and even one Lion!) installation.. that somehow had a corrupted or older Prokit installed for some unknown reason... and given it's a quick fix to try.. I thought I'd mention it..
I frankly don't think it is entirely a Prokit issue itself, but it wouldn't do any harm to try and install v7 just in case it is part of the problem...
+1 on the UAD stuff....
Also, at the time it crashed... according to the logs...the OP was running Ableton Live at the same time, presumably rewired with Logic... so add all that together with UAD plugins... and that's quite a load on the system...
Finally in thread 32 there is a weird exception msg relating to the Trash2 plugin.. that I haven't seen before...
Thread 32:
0   libSystem.B.dylib
0x94c29afa mach_msg_trap + 10

That might be nothing... but as i said, I haven't seen that one before and given what else is going on.. it might be involved too... or nothing to do with that at all!

All dialogs open in second monitor

I recently installed a second monitor to my Toshiba laptop and I am using the extended desktop using the built-in NVIDIA video card. Because of performance problems not related to the second monitor, I had to reformat my internal hard disk.
After reinstalling LabVIEW 8.0.1 Development Suite on an external drive, I found that all the dialogs (those in LabVIEW, in my apps both compiled or run under labVIEW) opened on my second monitor. I checked the VI properties to make sure that the run-time window position was not set to the second monitor and I checked the NVIDIA video card settings to make sure that the dialogs were not set for the second monitor. I have no problem with any other applications such as Quicken.
I then uninstalled LabVIEW and reinstalled on my internal hard disk. The dialogs still open in the second monitor. Does anyone know how to fox this?

Is your front panel on monitor 1 (the one that you want the dialog to open on) or is it on monitor 2?? It seems that if you are using the default LabVIEW dialogs (in Dialog & User interface) it will open centered on your front panel.
If you create your own custom dialog box, go into the Run-Time position and under the Position drop down box select "custom" and it will automatically set it to the current position. (make sure that you have it on your first monitor already)

How do I set Firefox to open new windows in my second monitor?

When opening a new window (by right clicking a link and selecting Open in New Window), I would like the window to be opened in my second monitor. Firefox used to do this, but randomly stopped. Now when I open a new window it is opened in my primary monitor. It does not open maximized (just short of being completely maximized). I have tried the fix I used before- moving the un-maximized browser to the second window, closing and re-opening the window. I have also tried moving the un-maximized browser, maximizing, closing and re-opening. Does anyone know how I can restore Firefox to open my new window in the second monitor?
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== Randomly

Click the orange Firefox button, and click "Options". This will bring up a new window with a "Tabs" tab at the top. Click that. There will be several checked boxes, including one called "Open new windows in a new tab instead" up at the top of the list. Uncheck that box and you should be good to go.
ETA: This should also work if you click "Tools" and "Options" within your version.

How open Adobe Reader 9 in second monitor by default?

How can I make Adobe Reader 9.0 open always in my second monitor?
With version 8 it was at least possible to open the first document on the second monitor if I had moved the window in an previous session to that monitor and closed it there. The second and following documents always were opened in the first monitor (annoying!).
What I want is, that ALL documents always open in the second monitor. How can I manage this?

I am also having this issue.
First PDF opens on second monitor. Second one I open will open on main laptop monitor and 3,4,5 etc the same.
Would like it to default full screen on second monitor for all PDF's.

How to force Photoshop CC to open on Second Monitor in OS Mavericks?

Can anyone share light on why Photoshop CC refuses to open on a second monitor?

Do you really mean Photoshop 6 or Photoshop CS6? (Not that this should make a difference for the issue at hand.)
What is your OS version?
Have you tried trouble-shooting it (repairing permissions, purging PRAM, …)?

I have two monitors on my Mac. Running FF3.6.16 new windows now want to open on the wrong monitor. How do I get FF to open on the main display?

I have an eMac with a second display. I am running OS X 10.4.11 (Tiger) and Firefox 3.6.16. Everything was working fine until the other day I opened a second window in Firefox and dragged it to my secnd monitor. I later closed it. Since then all New Window requests, including when starting Firefox always open on the second monitor. How do I tell Firefox I want my main monitor has the primary monitor?

It has nothing to do with the Mac, but more with the software exporting the displays on the PC. A typical VNC server will generally only export the primary monitor.
What PC software are you using to export the display(s), and what Mac software are you using to view the PC displays? That may help someone come up with a workable solution for you (or not ).

How do I get firefox 4 on Windows 7 to 'remember' to open on monitor 2? It keeps opening on the main monitor, only.

When you open a program in a multi-monitor set-up and transfer the program to the second monitor and close it, when it next opens it should open on the second monitor. Firefox 3.x performed this way. Firefox 4 does not -- it only opens on the main monitors, always.
Please build this into the product or provide an option for it?
Thanks,

Update: I forgot something about the way BootCamp installs Windows...
I had temporarily turned off BlueTooth on OS X because I didn't need it, and when you do that, it effectively removes it from the system's list of devices.
So I just wiped the Windows partition, turned BT back on in OS X, and re-installed Windows. Just to make sure, I went through and manually installed all the drivers by hand and then let the BootCamp utility install them as well, and it's been working like a charm!

Adobe Reader Fullscreen Preferences Second Monitor Only

Hey, I'm trying to set adobe reader to open in fullscreen mode on my second monitor instead of whatever monitor it's currently displayed on. I've looked through preferences, but the options for which monitor to use are descriptors like this monitor, biggest, widest, etc. Even if these options did somehow help, it doesn't save my choice and immediately reverts back to the this monitor option. I don't want adobe reader to open on my second monitor, I only want full screen to go to my second monitor. This appears to be an option in preferences, but it's appearing less and less possible.

I am also having this issue.
First PDF opens on second monitor. Second one I open will open on main laptop monitor and 3,4,5 etc the same.
Would like it to default full screen on second monitor for all PDF's.
