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.....

  • HP T510 - 2nd Monitor Constantly Turns off

    Good morning, I have a couple of Thin Clients that keep loosing connections to the 2nd monitor. To get them back on the user has to reboot the thin client. Updated Firmware and as far as I have seen they have had all updates applied as applicable. The company standard is to have a screen saver but I could disable it locally at the thin client. The problem is if it gets set again when its updated. Just checking to see if there is a known fix for this. Thanks

    Hello ITTech1,
    You may also want to post your question in the Enterprise/Business forums since you have Thin Clients.

  • Cant edit powersetting for laptop to turn off the display after .. when power is plugged in

    I tried to set the setting on a laptop in our domain from "turn off the display after 5 minutes" to "never".
    the button is greyed out.
    I tried the advanced settings, even that won't work. 
    Os on the laptop is windows 8.1 Pro, the laptop is a member in a domain.
    Anyone knows this issue?
    thanks,

    Hi，
    Are you referring to this?
    Please check the policy Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\System\Power Management\Video and Display Settings
    (if deployed by a GPO created by server in a domain, then check Computer Configuration\Policies\Administrative Templates\System\Power Management\Video and Display Settings)
    in the right pane, find "Turn off the display (Plugged in)", check whether it is configured to a specific data.

  • Windows 8 "Turn off the display" setting not working

    Hi all, I've got a TP W520 which I upgraded to Windows 8 with all updated Lenovo packages including the power mgt driver, Lenovo settings dependency package, and the newly installed Lenovo settings metro app. I'm seeing the following problem when trying to set a time for the monitor to shut off under Control Panel -> Hardware and sound -> Power Options -> Edit plan settings: - If I set any time other than never for "Turn off the display" such as 1 hour for example, the monitor will get turned off as soon as the screen-saver launches from the Windows 8 Lock Screen. - I'm not seeing this same behavior if I let the screen-saver launch while sitting at the desktop screen, problem is only seen from the Windows 8 lock screen. You can test this as follows: - Set "Turn off display" to any time i.e. 30 min - Change your screen-saver to launch after 1 min to test this - Type ctrl-alt-del then click lock to enter the lock screen, then let the screen-saver activate after a minute. - Once the screen saver tries to start, in my case, I see the monitor getting turned off and the screen saver doesn't even start. The monitor shouldn't get turned off until 30 min elapses. I'm suspecting some kind of bug with this which is still outstanding and I look forward to feedback from others on this issue. Thanks, John

  • I keep getting error 205 when downloading CC on a 2nd computer. PC, Windows 7. We had turned off anti-virus and ran cleaner

    I keep getting error 205 when downloading CC on a 2nd computer. PC, Windows 7. We had turned off anti-virus and ran cleaner. Any suggestions of how else to do it? I have creative cloud installed on another computer, but do not see the .exe file on it so I can't copy and move it.

    I found this log.  Is there a way to ftp the file or get it through email?

  • When sharing screen from work with my home computer, is there any way to turn off the display at home?

    Hi, sorry if this is a silly question, but when I'm viewing my desktop on the home computer from work (as in I've connected by finding my computer in the finder and hit the "Share Screen" button - is there any way to turn off the display at home? It seems a bit of a waste of power to have the screen on when I'm not actually there - I just need to be able to see all my programs etc on the remote screen in order to use them. My home computer is a 2011 iMac running latest Mountain Lion, work is a 2010 MacBook Pro.
    Thanks in advance!
    Matt

    I've set up another user on my home Mac and left that one logged in. Now when I connect from work it asks me if I want to share the screen or log on virtually as my user. I think choosing the second option doesn't power up the screen.

  • Turning Off the Display

    Hi,
    Is there a way to turn off the display manually? I use flight simulator a lot and there is motion on the screen so it won't turn off automatically. I was hoping there was a key command or something I could use to turn it off when I left the game running for a little.
    Thanks,
    Jeff

    Fn+F3 turns off the display(s) selected with Fn+F7.
    But with motion on the screen it won't stay turned off.
    Also hitting Fn+F3 will end full screen mode and return FS to a window which I think pauses it. If you know of a way to continue running FS in a diminished window Fn+F3 would work. Otherwise I think only way is to use Fn+F7 to select an external monitor only and then power off that monitor when you want to leave FS going.

  • HT4623 How to turn-off tap display during passcode entry

    I recently bought Iphone 4s. I like the phone as such but one thing that I want to change is tap display while entering the passcode on lock screen. I don't want to see which keys I am entering as this can put my phone on risk as anyone close to me can see what keys I had pressed to unlock the phone.
    Please help to let me know "How to turn-off tap display during passcode entry" on locked screen.
    Thanks for the answers and suggestion.

    This cannot be done.  You should simply hide the display from others' view.
    iPhone 5S allows you to use your fingerprint instead of the passcode.

  • My mac won't recognize an external monitor. The screen Goes Blue Once, then goes blue again and the second monitor just turns off. I am using an HDMI adapter to a visio TV. I also have my xbox on the tv. Can anyone Help??

    Lol, figured out the first part. Just for those who may be searching, when you click on the Display Preferences, and click on the arraingment tab... it not only shows where your two screens will be displayed, but the WHITE BAR at the top of one screen is the dock/toolbar. Click and hold to grab this and just slide it over to the screen you'd like it to be on.
    You have to release it IN the screen box, not on top of it... and it should pop right over to the new (or old) screen. At any rate, you can put the dock on either (or any) screen that you prefer.
    I am thinking of ordering more of these. Lol. 3 monitor setup seems like it would be crazy good.
    Still looking for the answer to keeping the new 16" screen on the right without switching between screen #s with that... not expose... Lion feature.
    Thanks. Hope my other question has an answer out here.

  • My MBP doesn't go to sleep, only turns off the display

    So I recently upgraded to 10.9.2 from 10.6.8. I have MacBook Pro mid 2010. I used to use InsomniaX to disable sleep when my lid was closed. It worked great, I could disable it anytime. Now after upgrading OS X I had to upgrade to newest InsomniaX so it worked. It use to work good, but when I wanted to disable it and have my MBP go to sleep I sometimes had issues.
    Decided to uninstall it completely and try other apps - I installed NoSleep, but noticed that when I disable it then it won't go fully sleep.
    Instead it just turns off the display and keyboard backlights, I hear my fans going.
    I tried to uninstall everything completely - from any traces of InsomniaX, and as well NoSleep. I did try to reset SMC and PRAM. Now when I close the lid or go to apple menu and chose Sleep - I still can hear the fans going, the display is off, the light on the right side of the MacBook case is turned on (instead of flashing, like it used to when it slept) - dimmed when I Sleep via Apple menu, bright when I close the lid.
    What can I do to somehow revert to the default setting so my MBP can go to sleep?

    OK I solved it.
    I followed instructions from http://superuser.com/questions/214943/what-is-preventing-my-macbook-from-sleepin g/409481/
    Go to Utilities in the Applications folder and open the "Terminal" app.
    Type pmset -g and hit Enter
    If "sleep" has 0 next to it and the words "imposed by" or "prevented by ; The number next to the imposed by is the process ID causing the problem. Copy that number.
    Type ps -e | grep <process ID here> and hit Enter. This will list all running processes that have that ID (will also include the grep process)
    For me it turned out to be Internet Sharing enabled that prevented my MBP from sleeping.

  • My iPhone 4s will not sync a changed playlist from itunes unless i turn off music match. Shouldn't I be able to use a playlist and music match at the same time?

    my iPhone 4s will not sync a changed playlist from itunes unless i turn off music match. Shouldn't I be able to use a playlist and music match at the same time?

    It's not entirely impossible actually as someone has pointed out to me that I can turn on Call Forwarding and that stops any incoming calls. I've just forwarded it to my google voice number and then turned on "do not disturb" in google voice and whenever I get a call it goes straight to my google voice voicemail and my phone does nothing. The only thing now is I still get text messages but I think the phone calls bugged me more because they would make my music turn off for much longer.
    Even though this isn't a perfect solution it's something so far so maybe you shouldn't just come out and say there's NOTHING I can do because so far I've found part of a solution. If you don't have anyting productive to say then just don't reply and close the tab. Thanks.
    At this point I'm wondering if anyone knows of any Jailbreak tweaks that can enable what I want. Unless of course it's agaisnt the rules of this forum to mention jailbreak stuff...

  • Creative Zen 4gb, is it supposed to turn off the display to save the batte

    I just bought a Creative Zen 4gb, is it supposed to turn off the display when I'm listening to songs?to save the battery?
    Mine doesn't. It just goes dim.

    Yes, it is possible. On the right hand side of the player is the slider to turn on the player, push the slider upwards to the lock position and the screen will turn off. That is the Hold mode. At this mode, all the buttons would be inaccessible to prevent accidental pressing of the buttons. This is the mode to use when you are just playing music and do not need the display.
    To unhold the player, just push the slider to the middle position and all the way down to turn it off.

  • Should iphone 4 receive messages when turned off and display them when switched back on

    should iphone 4 receive messages when turned off and display them when switched back on

    It's up to the cellular carrier, but I believe most (if not all) will enqueue the messages when your iPhone is off.
    So generally speaking, a few minutes after you turn your iPhone on, your messages should display.  Similarly, your voicemails would arrive.

  • Can I turn off my display while syncing?

    I have an old laptop with usb 1.1 ports. Obviously syncing is extremely slow. If I want to load 12 GB worth of songs it can take hours. Does it harm or wear out the display or do I risk burning the image of the 'Sync in Progress' screen onto my display permanently if it takes eight hours to load that much data? Is there any way to turn off the display while syncing? Thanks

    No, you cannot turn it off.
