Expose activates on both primary and secondary monitor corners

Hi all
I am using a dual monitor setup. Laptop screen as primary and a vga monitor for secondary running though a minidisplay to vga adapter. This is setup as an extended desktop. The 3 corners of the primary monitor and 2 corners of the secondary monitor can activate my expose settings.
I would think that using an a dual monitor extended desktop setting will allow you to activate expose, through 2 corners of the primary and 2 corners of the secondary assuming they are arranged as side by side screens.
Is this bug that we are waiting for a fix or is this something unique on my side?

During booting in the safe mode the notebook loads only a common drivers and it should be able to see something on the screen.
But if its not possible and you are not able to get the display back on the internal screen then I assume you need to boot form the recovery CD and to reinstall the OS :(
The new installation should overwrite all display settings and the notebook should works.

Windows 8.1 screen bounces between primary and secondary monitors

I have a Lenovo T530 laptop with a docking station and a IBM monitor L200P attached to it.
Up until yesterday, this configuration was running Windows 8 Pro with no issues.
However today, after I installed the Windows 8.1 upgrade, I started having problems with the screen bouncing between the primary and secondary monitors without my intervention. The problem happens very regularly, regardless of whether I have selected the laptop as primary monitor or the IBM monitor attached to the docking station.
I verified that the problem does not happen with Windows 7 and Windows 8 installation and only starts appearing after the Windows 8.1 upgrade is applied.
Does anybody have similar problems
Thank you in advance.

another thing you could try is this: enter '''about:config''' into the firefox address bar (confirm the info message in case it shows up) & search for the preference named '''layout.css.devPixelsPerPx'''.
double-click it and change its value to '''1.2''' (or any other zoom factor that fits your purpose: 1.0 relates to 100%, 1.2 equals 120% and so on; -1.0 is the default value and will adhere to the system settings).
</blockquote>
Okay, I tried it, set it to 1.2 and even more stuff got blurry and fuzzy. Besides everything in the FF menu bar everything in the header on youtube and a few other pages did it too. It did make the pages fill the actual page better, but the blur is worse than this prob so I set it back to -1.0.
Any other ideas?

Blank screen after disabling primary and secondary monitor on Satellite A

Hello,
I tried to connect an LCD on my laptop, at the first place i went control panel -- display -- settings -- advanced -- monitor -- properties -- Device usage: disable!!
That enabled the secondary LCD screen but the most stupid thing is that when I wanted to return back to my laptop screen I followed the same procedure with the LCD screen.
The result is that now both are blank. The laptop's screen turns into blank as soon as starts to load windows. Fn+F5 combination didn't help. I also tried to enter windows in Safe mode but it was not possible.
Does anybody have any ideas???
PLEASE.
Thanks

Need help with sorting records in primary and secondary databases

Hi,
I would like to store data into primary and secondary db in different order. For the main primary, I want it to be ordered by login_ts instead of uuid which is the key.

This is what I have right now,
this is for main

     int time_a = 0;
     int time_b = 0;
     time_a = atoi ( (char *)a->data);
     time_b = atoi ( (char *)b->data);
     return time_a - time_b ;
for the timestamp secondary, I set that compare function:
          if ((ret = (*sdb)->set_bt_compare(*sdb , compare_login_ts )) != 0){
Does anyone know how can I make it sorted according?

Hi,
The DB->set_bt_compare() is used to compare keys in Btree database. In the callback function, both the DBTs are key, but not data. Please refer to http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/berkeley-db/db/api_reference/C/dbset_bt_compare.html.
If you want any field in the data to be sorted, you might create a secondary index on it and define the compare function as you wish.

Is it possible to set primary and secondary display with 2 graphics cards?

I have an Early 2008 Mac Pro with two graphics cards and four monitors installed. Does anyone know how the computer (or more specifically Keynote) determines which is the primary display and which is the secondary?
Also is there any way to change the scheme?
What I am trying to do is switch the primary and secondary from the two monitors in my office to the monitor at the podium (would like it to become primary) and a vga projector (would like it to become secondary)
I bought the second graphics card so I wouldn't have to switch the cables back and forth three times a week. All the monitors work fine, it's just a matter of determining or changing primary/secondary
Thanks in advance

Thanks Malcolm
I got that far – The keynote manual says that the display with the menu bar is the primary display – that works out fine. The problem is that the manual says that the display without the menu bar is the secondary (or alternate). But there are three displays without the menu bar.
What I would like to find out is: is there a way to choose the display without the menu bar to be the alternate?
When I try various combinations, there seems to be no rhyme or reason as to which display is the alternate.
Thanks again for your response!

How to bind the Zero line between a primary and secondary Y axis?

All -
We are using combination charts with:
- primary and secondary Y axis (Sales versus Volume).
- Scale: Auto (Y) Axis
- Linear
- Fixed Label Size
In instances where one axis has a negative value and the value ranges are diverse the Zero line will be different for both. This causes some confusion when trying to read. Other that putting in manual (Y) axis with min and max, is there a way to force the chart to keep the same Zero line?
Thanks!

Obviously, true
The number of different features described once as "a basic requirement" is really amazing but a feature asked once is perhaps not one which must be added to a program like Numbers.
Other tools are available for professional numbers crunchers .
I know there are other threads asking about secondary axes, but your point is taken. I'm definitely not a number cruncher, but I am/was a pretty advanced Excel user.
_Go to "Provide Numbers Feedback" in the "Numbers" menu_, describe what you wish.
Then, cross your fingers, and wait _at least_ for iWork'09

Set Primary and Secondary Interfaces

How can I set up primary and secondary network interfaces, so that it will automatically fallback to the second interface when I don't have the primary connected? I tether my phone to T-Mobile's network, but when I don't have it connected it want it to fall back to my wired connection.

Sorry, I only bump my own posts when I've added additional information to my last post and I see that no one has added anything to it in the past few days. I guess I would be better to create a new post instead of editing the old one.
I did give it a try and I have no real results to share. I created the two profiles in the /etc/netctl directory and named them as above (including Priority=1 for the tmobile connection and Priority=2 for the wired connection, as stated in the wiki entry even though man netfcfg.profile says it's only for wireless connections), then I enabled the service. There is the word "interface" after systemctl enable netctl-ifplugd@ which makes me think I should specify an interface but I have no idea which one to specify, so I just enabled it without it and it didn't complain. There's no way to start it. Both connections are enabled but it seems to default to the wired connection for some reason, when I want it to default to the tmobile connection and then fall back to the wired connection. Both are enabled and have IP addresses but nothing changes when I connect or disconnect my mobile data connection since it's using the wired connection.
edit: I just tried to enable the service using the interface name of my mobile data connection and it didn't change anything ex. sudo systemctl enable netctl-ifplugd@enp0s26f7u3

Magic Mouse Primary and Secondary Clicks Switched

Recently I picked up a Magic Mouse and have since found some very strange things that I don't know how to fix:
The primary and secondary clicks are switched. As in, under mouse settings when I select the secondary click to be on the right, only the primary click works on the right side and everything else is a secondary click. It is also very annoying because every time I have more than one finger touching the surface it counts as a secondary click. If anyone knows how to fix this I would really appreciate feedback.
I looked around in settings and couldn't find anything regarding this matter. I fiddled with some stuff but never got it working properly.
Feedback much appreciated!
--Justin

Looking at another thread in this forum, I see some people who had older apple mice installed before the magic mouse are having this problem with the magic mouse.
I had an older wireless mouse that would take right-clicks before I set up the magic mouse. Unfortunately when I connect the older wireless mouse I can no longer access it's preferences. It only gives me the preferences a generic one button mouse. Somewhere there must be some set of files I can delete and it will forget this old mouse.
I am pretty disheartened after a week of this. One of the benefits to a mac is that I shouldn't have to dig around removing drivers and such

Setting up a primary and secondary Database in Oracle 10G

Hi Experts
can you please tel me the steps involved in creation of primary and secondary database? This is the first time i am going to configure this setup. Please provide your helping hands.
Thanks alot in advance,
Ram

Absolutely glad to help.
Step 1: Clarify what it is you are trying to build. Are you talking about a Standby Database? Perhaps Physical or Logical Data Guard? If so what protection mode? Stand-alone or RAC? Or are you just trying to dup an existing database on another server in which case you can just use RMAN.
Step 2: Go to http://tahiti.oracle.com and read the relevant docs
Step 3: Go to http://metalink.oracle.com and look at the Knowledge Base docs
If you have any question thereafter contact us and be sure to include your version number, not a marketing label. 10g is a marketing label that refers to everything from the 10.1 Beta through 10.2.0.4.

ITunes U course published but I can't see my school in the Primary and Secondary Schools list

I don't know how to contact the responsable of the iTunes U administration to send an email and change the name of my school.
I want to change Villaviciosa De Odón - Colegio Pax-Casvi into "Eurocolegio Casvi". Anyway, even my organization has been approved for courses publishing, I can't find the name of my school at the list of iTunes U "Primary and Secondary" schools.
If I go to https://itunesu.itunes.apple.com/audit/633264363, the course is in the iTunes U.

Can't find my DNS Primary and Secondary

Dear God, I need my DNS primary and secondary. I'm trying to set my xbox 360 up with it's own ip ect. I've gone to my airport to get this information but my DNS is the same as the IPv4 router. My xbox requires a DNS primary and secondary. The only thing I can find for my DNS is a Domain Name and Server address: 10.0.1.1 Do I put this number in my xbox for the DNS with no secondary?

I think your router is not configured properly for your internet connection. Router is not giving out a valid DNS to the computers because it cannot obtain it (dns) from the modem. Is your connection Cable or DSL?

Primary and secondary Email accounts

Hello,
Is there a way to specify primary and secondary email account ? In case if the primary server is down, the secondary server would be used for sending the notification.
Thanks.

I am implementing something similar to what you have suggested. I was wondering if there is a way to achieve this by just changing configuration. Looks like it is not possible to configure it and coding it is the only way out.
Thanks for your inputs :)

P965 Neo-f - primary and secondary ide channel stops working after changing gpu

I just changed my graphic card from 4850 to 4870x2 and then my idd devices stopped working, and when I look in device manager the primary and secondary ide channel has a yellow exclamationmark over them. And the error msg is as follow: This device cannot find enough free resources that it can use. (Code 12)
And when I look on the tab resources the two I\O range tabs have a red cross like over them probably meaning there is something wrong. And in the column Conflicting devies list: Input/Output Range 01F0 - 01F7 not available.
Input/Output Range 03F6 - 03F6 not available.
What I have tried so far:
Updating the bios, looking for I\o range crashes and irq crashes, uinstalling and reintalling severals times. And when I change back to my old 4850 card the problems disappears straight away.
Any ideas?

Well reality says something different :D
And a reinstall fixed the problem. I find this post very amusing.
Ill bet your graphics doesnt even use its full potential on that board.
Me thinks it severly limited by the board and the cpu and imo a waste of a good graphicscard/money.
Its better to use only 2 slots of mem because of the strain you put on your memorycontroller when using 4 slots.
When running " double dualchannel" the memorycontroller can be overflooded when running too high mem.speeds, with errors and BSOD and crashes as a result.

Multi-monitor displaying primary and secondary

Folks,
I've been using Keynote since the MacWorld when Steve Jobs gave it away but am stumped by this one.
I want to be able to have Keynote feed my slide image, i.e. presentation, to one monitor/projector, and have the Presenter Display output to another display/projector. I realize this isn't possible with a MacBook Pro. Has anyone done this with a MacPro? Either with multiple video cards or one video card and both outputs?
I want to have 2 displays at the front of the stage that have the presenter display sort of a poor man's teleprompter.
Any one have a solution for this?
Thanks my friends.

Our tower machines both Dell and Mac use a PCI dual output graphics card and a DVI video distributer handles the video delivery to a mixture of projectors, 50" displays and 15" lectern displays.

Windows gets rearranged in Windows 8.1 and secondary monitor when computer goes to sleep

I have a MacBook Air 2013 with a secondary monitor installed through a mini-display port-HDMI cable. I also have bootcamp installed in Windows 8.1 64 bits with all the latest drivers installed. The problem that I have is that when the computer wakes after it goes to sleep, all the windows in the non-primary monitor moves to the primary monitor and I have to re-arranged them all over every time.
What I tried so far:
1. Installed the latests drivers from Microsoft and Intel HD Graphics 5000.
2. Look for the DMMEnableDDCPolling in the registry. (not found only available for ATI cards)
3. Change the mini-displayport-HDMI cable for a new one that doesn't transmit the "power" so that computer do not detect that the monitor was shutdown.
4. Change the resolution on boths monitors to native resolution
5. Change the primary display from external monitor to laptop monitor
6. Changer HKLM\Software\Microsoft\TMM\UseIViewHelper from 1 to 0
7. Try to get an answer from Apple, Intel and microsoft support.

PLEASE HELP! I Don't know what else to do!
This do not happend on MacOS, is happends only in Windows.
Thanks, Andres Rormoser.

The only solution that I found so far was to install Actual Window Manager, separate the secondary monitor in tiles, assign each window to each tile, add a shortcut to start/stop ActualWindowManager and every time the computer wakes up with the windows re-arranged I press the shoutcut and everything goes back to my predifined layout.
