Display Mirroring Broken

I am running two displays, both Samsung, one is 27" one is 24". Prior to Mavricks OS, there was no problem with display mirroring. With Mavricks frequently, many times a day, when opening a document, displays are mirrored, no content shows on either monitor. Shutting off mirroring brings the requested file up on the main monitor.
The 27" is using HDMI via the integrated Display Port and the 24" is using the Dual-link DVI port.
A discussion on Other World Computing (i.e. macsales.com) the day after release of Mavricks validated this problem. Apple says they haven't heard about it, go figure.

This is the glossy marketing description of the new Multiple Displays features in Mavericks:
Multiple Displays
Desktop with menu bar and Dock
Each display connected to your Mac has a desktop with its own menu bar, so there’s nothing to configure. The Dock is available when you move your cursor to the bottom of the screen, letting you easily access menus and apps from anywhere.
Full-screen apps on each display
You can use full-screen apps on each display connected to your Mac. Swipe on the trackpad or mouse to switch between full-screen apps.
Multidisplay Mission Control
OS X Mavericks makes it easy to manage the apps running on each display. Mission Control shows you everything that’s on each display, including windows on the desktop and full-screen apps. If you want to move an app from one display to another, simply drag its thumbnail to the desired display.

  • How to edit/print photos marked with an icon displaying a broken rectagle?

    I have been trying to print pictures displaying a broken rectangle. When I open up the pictures, they will not become clear on the screen and consequently I can not edit them. They seem to be missing the base part of the picture that must be lost in my computer. Thanks for the help. Debby

    > Yes they were moved from my photo file to Adobe starting edition.
    PSA SE does not store the picture files anywhere. It only catalogs what you have. If you deleted them from My Photos after importing into PSA SE, the image files are now lost [unless you have a backup or they are in the Recycle Bin].

  • Mac OS X 10.7.4 ARD Issues When Observing/Controlling Computers with Display Mirroring/Different Resolutions

    As if Macs in an enterprise environment could be more difficult to manage, now since our upgrade to OS X 10.7.(4) I have lost the ability to remotely control numerous Macs in our organization. The issue occurs when attempting to control a Mac running OS X 10.7.(4) that has their Display mirrored and the resolution does not match on both displays. What happens is that I can see the remote screen however it does not fill the entire Observe/Control window. Instead, the remote screen takes up about 50% of the window, the rest is black but sometimes will display a mirror image of the remote screen in the black area. What?! Yeah, I've attached a screenshot because this is ridiculous. The real problem is that I cannot control the computer when it has reached this state, the mouse no longer functions properly, it is not clicking where I place the mouse, etc. I have made sure that I have all updates including ARD Client/Server updates. I even tried VNC but as I have come to find out that is a whole other issue (doesn't work, sends me to the login screen, etc).
    So here's what I need:
    - A patch that is going to fix this issue
    - A script to run that is going to change the remote screen resolution (I still have the ability to run remote scripts, etc. simply not Observe/Control)
    Ideas?
    <Image Edited by Host>

    I found a way to work around this issue.  Not a fix but a work around.
    This is little application some one wrote to toggle mirroring on and off.
    Mirror Displays
    If you put this application in the client computer's /Aplications folder
    you can use ARD or SSH to run the app and switch modes.
    The problem only occurs for me when a client is set to mirror dissimilar displays with different aspect ratios.
    I am only seeing this in Lion 10.7.4 and 10.7.5
    Hope it helps someone....

  • IMac won't offer display mirroring option when connecting to HDTV with Thunderbolt to HDMI cable

    I have an iMac, and am trying to connect to my HDTV to use as a second display (mirror). I am using a cable with a Thunderbolt connector at one end, and an HDMI on the other. I know the cable works because I have used it with my MacBook on other TVs. When I use this on my MacBook, I simply open displays, and between the tabs marked "Display" and "Color" there is always an "Arrangement" tab to select. When I try this same setup on my iMac, the only two tabs I can see are "Display" and "Color" - the option to mirror disdplay (or recognize the HDTV in any way) simply doesn't exist.
    I would welcome any help. Thanks much, Doug.

    OK, yes your Mid 2011 has a Thunderbolt port.

    6. Release the keys.
    Then try connecting the TV to the iMac.

  • My iphone 5 display has broken and i want to know there is any procedure to replace iphone ,it is out of warrenty

    display has broken and i have to replace my iphone 5 , there is any procedure to do this if yes then please help

    One option is to have it repaired: https://www.apple.com/support/iphone/repair/screen-damage/
    Not sure what you mean by "procedure to replace." How you would buy a new one depends on where you are located, whether you are under contract with a carrier for the old phone, etc. If you mean a procedure to move your data to a new phone, the following may help: Transfer content from an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to a new device - Apple Support

  • Ibook g3 Display Case Broken

    My daughter accidentally knocked our computer off the table last night and the casing around the display is broken. Not cracked just coming apart now. The display works fine but I need to fix the casing. What is the best way to do this?
    Thanks.

    Which model is it (MHz rating and optical drive specs)?
    There are two different types of case on the iBook G3 (Dual USB), so in order to find one that matches, we need to know which model it is.
    Do you want to try this yourself? It's quite complicated, requiring nearly complete disassembly of the iBook to get to the display housing.

  • Will the first gen ipad support display mirroring via airplay when IOS5 is released?

    From what I have read, IOS5 will support display mirroring on the ipad 2.. Is this likely to be added to the first gen ipad ? If so then great, but if not, why not? Im sure if you can wirelessly stream music and movies to an Apple TV device (connected via wifi) from the ipad one, then surely you must be able to use display mirroring ?

    In case you didn't click on the link above that is on the Apple site:
    AirPlay Mirroring for iPad 2
    Wow your audience in the board room, classroom, or living room. AirPlay now supports video mirroring. Which means you can wirelessly — and securely — stream whatever’s on your iPad 2 to your HDTV via Apple TV. Everyone in the room sees exactly what’s on your iPad display up there on the big screen — even when you rotate iPad from portrait to landscape or zoom in and out on photos.2
    So unless you were told be Steve Jobs that the iPad 1 will also do AirPlay Mirroring it really doesn't matter what you have been told, you are posting at best speculation but more likely misinformation.
    And no, don't have anything better to do.

    Look for a 3rd party repair shop that can fix it in your area. It wouldn't be covered by warranty anyway.

  • Border displayed as broken in smartforms

    Dear Expert,
    Do you know how to let the border of a window displayed as broken lines as Ms.Excel ?
    Please do not tell me create a text element and input dot line there .

    Hi Senthil,
    Do you use the MS Word editor as the graphical editor for smartforms? The old graphical editor is not unicode enabled.
    You can activate the MS Word editor for smartforms and sapscipt via the report RSCPSETEDITOR. After this try again to enter te characters in the smartform editor and it should worrk ok.

  • Toggle Display Mirroring On/Off - alternate methods?

    Does anyone know if there is a standalone application or script that will simply toggle Display Mirroring on or off?
    Due to a custom setup I'm using, I can't access the menubar or System Preferences to do this.
    I found a terminal utility that sort of does this but it leaves Terminal open after completing the task. I don't know how to tell it to close Terminal when done. Anyone know how to do this or how to integrate in to an Applescript that will do this?
    Here is the link to the software I'm using: http://eruvia.org/software/osxmirroring/
    Thank you!

    Let me restate what I think you are saying and asking, just so I am sure I understand; you are using a projector along with the MBP's built-in display so that both are running at the same time, correct? Is this part important to you, meaning do you care that both displays are running or would you be happy to have just the projector running and the MBP's lid closed and screen not running? If that would be OK with you, e.g. just the projector running, then that may be the easiest thing to do to get content displayed on the projector at 1080p full screen.
    If you do care that both screens are running, does it matter to you which is the primary screen, e.g. the screen with the menu bar along the top? Because you could set the projector to be the primary screen by moving the menu bar (under the Displays preferences Arrangement tab) and I believe that would also work to have your content show on the projector at 1080p in most cases.
    Let me know if any of that makes sense because maybe I am completely misunderstanding the issue.

  • VIXIA/LEGRIA HF G30 true display mirror?

    I know that the HF G30 has a mirror option that, when enabled, mirrors the video image horizontally. Unfortunately, for me as a diver this is only half way useful. I'm using an ikelite dive housing that has a mirror on the left side of the housing so I can see the display from behind while the display is in hinged position, folded to the cam body. For framing my shoots the mirroring works fine.
    But whenever I need to change settings and the onscreen display comes up, then the G30 switches to unmirrored display. For ordinary use this is the right thing. But for underwater usage this isn't really helpful as this forces me to use the view finder ... which isn't exactly convenient with a half or full face mask, sadly.
    Is there any display mirror option (maybe hidden) that allows me to constantly mirror the display even with all cam information in the screen also getting mirrored horizontally? While divers are probably not so much of interest to Canon I would be more than happy to hear that Canon actually want to help and offer a function that makes using the G30 under water more convient.

    You were, just not directly. If you go to apple's mountain lion webpage, you'll see this note at the bottom:
