Dual monitor set up not working in Leopard

I have just bought a refurbished Power Mac 2.66 dual core and it came with Leopard. I have a 1 LCD and 1 CRT, and have a problem where the CRT will only run at 736x552 if I have both monitors connected. HOWEVER, if disconnect the LCD and just run the CRT, the CRT will give me the option to run in higher resolutions (up to 1280x960). This on an Nvidia 7300 (I think, 7 something) with 256 meg of video ram...
Why is this? I have been running both monitors just fine on my older G5 (which has a lower-end video card).
This was a problem before the 10.5.2 combo update, also before the Video Up date, and still is a problem after installing all updates.
Anyone have this problem? Is it a problem with the video card? I think it's Leopard...
Leopard... I hate you.

You have a choice to make.
You can use two video outputs on the video card or the single video output on the motherboard. You cannot use both.
I suggest using the DVD output on the video card and an adapter in the HDMI output on the card. The only problem is that using an old school VGA monitor won't work on the video card outputs since it needs to output to digital display devices. If you want two displays from the video card ,then you will probably need to purchase another LCD display to connect to the video card.
It is probably time to consider putting the old VGA monitor out to pasture. Its time has come and gone.

Dual monitor rotation does not work :(

Hi Everyone,
I have a Mac Pro. It has a NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GT Graphics card, and I am trying to connect two monitors to it and have them both rotated at 90 degrees. This is possible when one monitor is connected. It is also possible to have both monitors connected and on rotated and the other not. But when I try to rotate both, the secondary display just goes black. The cursor still appears when I mouse over that monitor, but no windows show up on it. Any ideas as to how I can fix this so that I can have both monitors connected and rotated 90 degrees?
The monitors are,
Dell2407WFp, and Dell2408WFP
Thanks!

Assuming that you do not see the lock icon which would indicate that the screen is in fact locked ....
Quit the mail app completely and reboot. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the recents tray will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

Dual Monitor Set-ups (opinions please)

So I'm finally ready to jump into the dual monitor set-up. Right now I'm using a single 19" widescreen monitor. I recently started doing more work with movies and it would be absolutely wonderful to have the movie on a separate monitor.
Does anyone have any suggestions or recommendations for moving to this type of set-up? I want to make sure I buy something that will do the job for a long time.
Thanks in advance!

Hello Pal, Sorry for the late response... but this is what I use (Note: I have a laptop)
http://store.apple.com/us/product/M9321G/B?fnode=MTY1NDA5OQ&mco=MjE0NTg3Nw
I believe this is exactly what you'd need (there is no additional software needed)
You just plug it in, both screens flash a light color blue for about 3 seconds and you're off.
The only downside is if you are used to using your hot corners, when the screens are split you have to move your move a whole other screen length.

Dual Monitor Support No Longer Works

Hi,
I am using Lightroom 2.0 on a MacBook Pro with OS X 10.5.4
Dual monitor support use to work with my Samsung external monitor. But now whenever I try to turn on dual monitor function, lightroom crashes. I know the external monitor and connection is working properly because I am able to use all of my other programs with both monitors, but no longer lightroom's dual monitor function.
Any insight would be much appreciated.
Thanks

It was an extremely frustrating process trying to know if indeed this was the way to calibrate this monitor, and after spending so much time and research was all I could come up with. Did you notice the graphing results of both types of calibration? The red (I believe it was) of the RBG graph line was not lined up at all with the G and B thus the weird color on the monitor, and with the Easy mode, they were at least in line, more or less.

FCP not working with Leopard

Every time I try and launch FCP5 Studio 2 it gives me the "This application Final Cut Pro quit unexpectedly." Anyone have a solution to this? Anyone else experienced this?
Do I just have to wait for an update?

Having same problem with FCP v 6.0.1 and tried the FCP Rescue 6..... Also does not work with Leopard.
I am just about to try this proceedure.
Delete the User Preferences
You can resolve many issues by restoring Final Cut Pro back to its original settings. This will not impact your project files, but you should verify your Scratch Disk location setting after doing this. To reset your Final Cut Pro user preference settings to their original state, do the following:
In the Finder, go to ~/Library/Preferences—the tilde (~) represents your Home folder.
Remove the “com.apple.finalcutpro.plist” file from the Preferences folder.
Remove the “Final Cut Pro User Data” folder from the Preferences folder.
Will report shortly.

Dynamic rooting (User Record) setting is not working in Nakisa OrgChart SP3

Dear All
The Dynamic rooting setting is not working in the Nakisa OrgChart SP3.
It is giving an error message - "Cannot find the root of your orgchart. The orgchart box may have been deleted or incorrectly specified, or no valid org structure can be found for the selected effective date. Please change the root of the chart or select another effective date."
We followed the same steps as given in the Admin guide of SP3 (P.no. 109 - shown below)
In Orgchart --> General Settings:
* Select the Org chart root value source.
User Record: Retrieves the record specified in the next step from the employee data element.
*Do one of the following to define the org chart root:
If User Record was selected in the previous step, select the field containing the ID of the required organizational object in the employee data element from the User record field drop-down list. For example, if you wish to root the org chart at the org unit of the logged-in user, select the field containing the org unit ID. Hence, we have selected the Org unit ID.
Note:
We had enabled single sign-on with logon tickets
Retained the standard settings in Security Settings --> Employee Source
Had provided full authorization to the roles
If we use the "OrgChart Root" option available in 'Orgchart root value source', the org structure gets displayed correctly from the root object defined.
As this is an standard functionality, Kindly guide us in resolving the issue.

You don't have to and shouldn't always include the username and password parameters for the SAP Connection string. When you omit them it will use the user's login credentials.
Remember though that:
The SAPRoleMappingConnection will need them included in order to get the details for the user in the first place.
Without the username and password specified in a connection string you can't click the option to test the connection and result in a successful connection. Remember unable to connect does not necessarily equate to wrongly configured.

At the very least it looks like SAPPositionVacancyDataElement is missing and whilst the other errors around it are unfamiliar I wonder if it might be a good first step to see if you can track down the reference to and existence of this data element? That being said it looks like your last test occurred well over an hour after this (so you may have already resolved it) and resulted in nothing but information messages. If that is the case it might be worth "rolling" your log file or manually trimming it to the right time frame when posting it? Otherwise it can be misleading as people could flag up issues you have already resolved.
So assuming you haven't tried Luke's suggestion (which should only take a couple of minutes to do) I think you should go back and do so right away .

Stephen.

Photoshop 7 DOES NOT WORK with Leopard ( OS 10.5 )

If you are not prepared to upgrade your Photoshop 7, DO NOT UPGRADE TO LEOPARD.
Photoshop 7 and OS 10.5.x (Leopard) are not compatible. When Adobe released Photoshop 7 in 2001 as a Universal Binary for OS9 and OSX they had no idea that Apple would be switching to an Intel chip in 2006. As the release of Leopard is also the end of the Classic environment, this may be the reason Photoshop 7 does not work in Leopard.
As of the release of CS4, Photoshop 7 can no longer be used as a path to upgrade Photoshop. A full version has to be bought now. But Photoshop CS or later can still be used as an upgrade to Photoshop CS4.
It is recommended that Photoshop 7 owners still looking to save money on upgrades stay away from eBay, as, unfortunately, much of the software listed is pirated or misrepresented and you will still not be able to upgrade to CS4.

By default Firefox opens a blank page for a new Tab, there is no setting to change that action without installing an add-on.

The ringer setting is not working on my iPhone 4s

My iPhone fell into my pond for less than 10 secs. I pulled it out in time to dry it off and shake some of the water out. I made sure the screen was still working and sounds were functioning then I turned it off and left it in a bag or rice for 24 hrs. The next day I took it out and it was working fine. Now suddenly today, the ringer setting is not working. When I go into settings>sounds I press on ringtone and it seems to be working. Speakers are fine and when someone calls I have no problem. I can also hear the ringtones. But when someone txts me or when I get notifications it doesn't have any sound? The alarms don't work and the sounds in apps don't work. When I put the charger in, it doesn't make a sound. It vibrates only except when someone calls me... My headphone jack seems to be working fine because I can hear everything even the text tones and sounds in apps... What should I do? How much will I have to pay to get someone at apple to fix this problem? I'm assuming there is still some moisture in the phone maybe? It was working for a week until today I'm not planing to upgade to the iPhone 5 anytime soon. Btw, the volume buttons do work it's just when I press on it, it doesn't show the bars when you press up or down... it's just blank.

If it's physically stuck it might be best to bring it into the Apple store at George Street Sydney.
Set up an appointment with the Apple store via the website http://www.apple.com/au/support/contact/

Widget: "screenshot plus", not working in leopard, etc...

widget: "screenshot plus", not working in leopard. another bug? kids digital camera opens iphoto but doesnt appear on desktop to eject w/out errors. another bug? if i havnt registered leopard yet, can i sell it, cuz i think i might not want it now.

These aren't bugs, they are 3rd party issues that are not Apple's responsibility. Whomever wrote the widget needs to update it for Leo. The camera manufacturer needs to update their hardware driver to be Leo compatible.
I'm sure someone will take Leo off you hands for a better price than elsewhere. It's a great OS.

TS1394 Software Update NOT WORKING (Snow Leopard)

Software Update NOT WORKING (Snow Leopard)
Hi, I am currently using Snow Leopard 10.6 on my iMac. I opened iTunes and was told there was an update available so I clicked the button to download it. This obviously opened up the 'download' screen with blue bar. The blue bar does not move and the message comes up that the download failed. I have tried troubleshooting, but the message I get is that I am not connected to the internet - which I am.
Please help.

Check your iTunes version, it's reporting v10.6.3 here on 10.6.8 and no updates required.
You should be able to download it from here

one fine day yesterday, my i phone just hangup lost all contact detail. The screen only show a picture depicting cable connection to iTune. I have tried to restore iphone to factory setting but not working . May i know how to proceed to recover lost contacts.

I have taken it back to the Apple store genius bar, but they say they don't see anything wrong. Well unless you use it all day and experience the problems when they happen, you wont see anything wrong. But there are lots wrong with it. But this would be the same store as I purchased the phone. And they backed up my old Iphone 4, but were not able to get anything to load back onto my new phone. So, I lost pretty much everything. But over time, some of my contacts have started showing up, although i am still missing over 800 of them.

Adobe CS2 will not work in Leopard

Did you know *_Adobe CS2 will not work in Leopard?_* I found out the hard way that Leopard doesn't cost $129; It's $729, because CS2 will not work so you need to upgrade to CS3. This is straight from Adobe support (albeit in Manilla). I can find no documentation on either site that warns you not to upgrade to Leopard if you're running CS2. I am dead in the water until CS3 arrives. Nice move Apple and Adobe. I usually like to get kissed first.

I'm using Adobe Photohsop CS1 and it is working. There are a couple of little glitches, but nothing major. And whenever there is a major system upgrade you can ALWAYS figure there are some things that are going to break, which is why it is a good plan to install a new system on a new drive or second partition. AFAIK the things that don't work and will never work are Photoshop 7 and Elements 2.
