have lion and 2 displays how do I have an app up on each

Ditch "Full Screen Mode", a feature pulled in from the iPhone, and use Extended Desktop [which has been in Mac OS since System 4,2 and the Mac-II ].
Using Extended desktop, your displays each hold a portion of a larger extended desktop that share one edge. Open the Applications you want to use and drag windows between the display until they are to your liking. If one window on one display and one window on another display is what you want, you are free to do it that way.

    3 ipad uses 1 apple id and 1icloud account, how can i make different icloud account so each ipad will have more icloud space?

    All 3 iPads will have to share the same 5GB of free iCloud space. Buy more space if necessary.
    Suggest you give different name to each iPad to prevent confusion.

    - Try another cable

    The missing apps could have been done by setting the Restrictions that can hid those apps. If the backup was made with those retrictions set the the Restrictions are also restored.
    Thus, if you get it to work restore to factory settings/new iPod, not from backup

    Dear Ralph, thank you for your lightspeed answer!
    When I had installed the app, there was been written: "open", and when I pushed this, NO reaction of the iPad! And crazy too: I am NOT able to find the app itself at any screen of the iPad!!! I can see it only in the list "bought" items. With other words: The app is neither to be seen nor I am able to open it in the "list".
    Thank you in advance for your advice
    Best greetings from Austria (Wien, Vienna)

    It really pays to do things the way that Apple recommends that they be done!

    You should also ask this in the iPad forum. This is the forum for the white and black plastic MacBooks that were discontinued in 2010. You should also post this question there to increase your chances of getting an answer.

    An iPhone cannot "dump" or "lose" those features.
    They can be turned off in Settings > General > Restrictions or blocked by an Exchange Admin when an Exchange profile is loaded.

  • I installed indesign CS5 on new macbook pro and keeps freezing with spinning wheel once the app opens. Is there an issue with OS Mav or font issue or a plist I can pull. All other Adobe products work.

    Migration should never be done with any Adobe program.
    If you have done Migration, you have to UNINSTALL first (if even possible) and then download Adobe Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool and run that also. When this is done, restart your computer and install the programs from an original Adobe Installer.
    Other question is, if your OS is supporting that version. You can try it, it is not officially supported, but it might work.
    But CC will work, upgrade to CC2014 (without additional cost), use that as it is better anyway.

  • Lion and Multi-Display (2 external monitors + built-in Display) [Thunderbolt, USB adapters/eVGA UV+]

    Hi everyone,
    I just completed an upgrade to Lion and while I love it I've suddenly found myself short 1 display. I use 2x24" with my MacBook Pro - 1 via mini Display Port [the Thunderbolt port] and another via an eVGA UV+ [both displays have a resolution of 1920x1080].
    There are two things that I am wondering about:
    Has anyone else who's upgraded found their UV+ adapter to be useless all of the sudden? I'm contacting eVGA to find out how soon we can expect a functional OSX 10.7 Lion driver for that but in the meantime...
    Has anyone heard anything of a Thunderbolt splitter "adapter" - it is obvious that you can have 2 displays chained to a MacBook Pro, as long as both of these displays are of the Thunderbolt Cinema Display variety ... seeing as I don't have two grand and already own 2 smaller monitors that I'd been using with Snow Leopard for quite some time now I was curious if there's just a way to ditch the USB adapter and just have the Thunderbolt port on my 2011 MBP drive both displays (I am fully aware that the GPU is capable of it but have yet to find a hardware display port or thunderbolt cable that splits in 2 so I can just hook each display into it and call it a day).
    Thank in advance to anyone and everyone who provides any information related to that stuff as I'd greatly appreciate your help ... once you're used to the extra screen real estate going down from 3 screens to 2 can be pretty painful.
    On that same note a general observation about Lion is that while I love full-screen apps I'll barely ever use them whenever I have external displays hooked up as Lion seems to insist on making the full screen app go to the primary display while completely blocking off the secondary display (rendering it useless). Hoping that Apple will make the UX for mulit-display folks nicer someday, I know their focus was just to release Lion now but there's absolutely room for improvement as far as that goes.
    Thanks in advance to anyone and everyone who responds to this post!

    Turns out that's not truly the case - see http://www.macrumors.com/2011/09/16/apple-thunderbolt-display-with-multiple-moni tors/ for details but the short of it is that if you just get one and plug in a Display Port Monitor you won't get that extra screen real estate after all.
    Yes... the actual marketing 'statement' says you are unable to connect the mDP display "directly" to the back of the new TB display.  Yes...
    But... from what i hear...  if you have some other TB display "directly" connected to the downstream of the TB display, you can 'then' add your older mDP display to the chain at that point.  You just can't have the older mDP directly to the new TB display.
    And this still stands true if you read previous info from Apple website.  It's all about the wording...
    So basically, you should still be able to have your MBPro + New TB display + (some other TB device w/ 2 ports) + old mDP display.

  • Lion and external display

    Hi,
    When I wake up my MacBoo Pro usingto work with external display, my laptop gets very hot and I with Snow Leo I was used to open the lid to cool it down.
    It worked fine, because the laptop screen was black but with Lion I cannot do it because after opening the laptop lid I am getting immediately cloned desktop on my laptop.
    Is it possible to come back to the previous behaviour or somehow to switch-off the laptop screen after opening the lid, still with keeping the external display as active and main one?

    Hi tgr2007
    According to Apple support, it is "expected behaviour" under Lion for the MBP's internal display to reactivate upon opening the lid. A new version of the clamshell mode-related knowledgebase article (replacing HT3131) is due shortly confirming this.
    This is despite:
    - the obvious temperature-related benefits that were previously achievable (under Snow Leopard) by opening your MBP lid whilst continuing to output solely to a 27" cinema display
    - the complete and total waste of energy and graphics processing power in running two active screens if running your MBP in clamshell mode would otherwise make it too hot and/or noisy
    - the negative longer-term impact on the battery and other components from running the MBP at any hotter a temperature than it needs to be.   
    If you would like to have the previous behaviour restored, please join us (ie the many customers who are being adversely affected by this change) in lobbying Apple to change how Lion handles clamshell mode.
    Options available to Apple include changing Lion's expected behaviour or adding a user-selectable option within System Preferences.
    Please submit your feedback here:

    Something went wrong with your upgrade.
    Back up all data, then reinstall the OS. You don't need to erase the startup volume, and you won't need your backup unless something goes wrong. If your Mac was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you’ll need the Apple ID and password you used to upgrade.
    If you installed the Java runtime distributed by Apple and still need it, you'll have to reinstall it.

  • I have a new pc and 'new' iphone, how do I access bought apps/audio books?

    Hi
    My iphone and my pc both broke around the same time (unrelated incidents!). My iphone was sent away for repair and returned working but set to factory default  no apps etc, I've now got a new pc too. How do I access the apps / audiobooks that I had downloaded before? Does this situation mean I've lost them as they weren't backed up anywhere? (Maybe I've learnt the hard way )
    Any help appreciated!

  • Dual boot drive - Mountain Lion and Snow Leopard - Correct order to load software /apps?

    Hi
    I want to create a dual boot drive for Mountain Lion and Snow Leopard as some of my hardware (is not supported in Mountain Lion). 
    I am happy how to do this, I just want to know if there is a correct way to install software and apps.
    My plan was to do a clean install of both using two partitions, the larger going to ML and smaller one for SL.  I was going to install SL from the DVD and then after updating from 10.6. to 10.6.8 and download ML from the app store and install on the larger partition.
    Do I install all the software I use like Final Cut, Aperture, iLife (for Garageband) etc on the ML or SL partition or on both.  Also, is there a better way / practise of the order software updates / apps and boxed software should be installed when doing a clean machine install.
    Thanks in advance.
    Matt

    Thanks mende1
    So, if I have software I need to use on both ML and SL - for example Final Cut as I have a Canopus AVDC box which is not supported in ML but only SL, do I need to install the same software in both OS?
    I usually open apps using spotlight and didn't know if it would software / apps would open if already installed on the other partition?
    Thanks again
    Matt

  • How can I get Firefox to open automatically each time I turn on computer?

    How to get Firefox to open automatically each time I turn on computer.

    You can place a shortcut to the Firefox program in the Startup folder in "Start > Programs" by dragging the Firefox shortcut from the desktop or by dragging the Firefox entry in "Start > Programs > Mozilla Firefox" to that folder (or use Copy/Paste to achieve this).
