How can I designate the primary monitor?

I have a three monitor setup. The center monitor has always been designated as the main monitor (has the Finder bar on it). Since I've upgraded to Mavericks, the left monitor seems to be the primary, despite the settings in the Display control panel remaining the same.
Yes, the Finder bar is now on all screens (which is great!), but when I Command-Tab to cycle through open applications, those icons appear on the left hand screen. Or when I open system preferences, even if the center monitor has focus, the pref open on the left hand screen.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

Oddly this is a buggy bug (as I see it) with Mavs.
a work around, at this point, is to get the dock to appear in the monitor you wish to be the "main" one.
In reality, there is no main one anymore, unless you count login screen.
I digress.
anyway, you need to get the dock to appear in the monitor you wish to be the main one. I get the dock to appear by moving my cursor to the bottom of the screen and then moving it down once it's at the bottom of the display.

  • How can I obtain the primary key of a table for an entity relation?

    hello everybody
    I am doing a consultation to a table in my data base, good this table has alone two fields, the first one is the code or pk and the second one is the description, to be presisos they are names of city and code.
    From the beginning!!: This method this one in another class that is a Dialog that is going to call to the class SelecPlace ();
      SelecPlace sl = new SelecPlace();
    public void capturarLugar(){  //  Simple void method in the mentioned class
            String place = txtProcedencia.getText() ;  //  a JTextField
            sl.executeStatement(place) ;                  
        }ok, now we see part of the code of the class SelectPlace
    public class SelecPlace extends AbstractTableModel{
        Connection con = null;
        Statement sentencia = null ;
        ResultSet rs = null;
        ResultSetMetaData rsmd = null ;
        String[] nameColum = {} ;
        Vector datos = new Vector() ;
        public SelecPlace() { }
        public void executeStatement(String query){
          try{
             con = DBManager.getConnection() ;
             sentencia = con.createStatement(rs.TYPE_SCROLL_INSENSITIVE,
                                                                          rs.CONCUR_UPDATABLE) ;
             String sql = "select * from Place where descripcion like %"+query+"%'";
              rs = sentencia.executeQuery(sql) ;
              rsmd = rs.getMetaData();
              int nroColumnas = rsmd.getColumnCount() ;
              nameColum = new String[nroColumnas] ;
              //obtengo los nombres de columnas en cache
               for(int colum = 0; colum < nroColumnas; columna++){
                    nameColum[colum] = rsmd.getColumnLabel(columna + 1) ;
               datos = new Vector();
                while(rs.next()){
                    Vector newRow = new Vector();
                    for(int i = 0; i < getColumnCount(); i++){
                    newRow.addElement(rs.getObject("place_ID"));
                    newRow.addElement(rs.getObject("description"));
                    datos.addElement(nuevaFila);
                fireTableChanged(null);
            }catch(SQLException e){
                System.err.println(e);
                e.printStackTrace(System.err);
                System.out.println("error in statement");
            }catch(ClassNotFoundException cnfe){
                System.err.println(cnfe);
        }Ok, this code me works and I obtain in this case the field description of the table Place
    Now my question is, how can I obtain the primary field of my table?
    I need this value of this field that in the base of information in a bigint, and to take it to the first class before mentioned, for that I am working with a data base related

    Certain duffymo and everyone!!, good I give you my scheme:
    And generalizing my question, I want to obtain the value of the primary key of a table in the database, I obtain more values of the same row, but I need the primary key, and you see one with the primary key I want to turn a Long and it to insert with code java in foreign clave in another table of the database
    Good of this form I believe that it would not be breaking the integrity relacional of the tables

  • How can I designate the disk for the iPhoto library?

    how can I designate the disk for the iPhoto library?

    Moving the iPhoto library is safe and simple - quit iPhoto and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity to the external drive - depress the option key and launch iPhoto using the "select library" option to point to the new location on the external drive - fully test it and then trash the old library on the internal drive (test one more time prior to emptying the trash)
    And be sure that the External drive is formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) (iPhoto does not work with drives with other formats) and that it is always available prior to launching iPhoto
    And backup soon and often - having your iPhoto library on an external drive is not a backup and if you are using Time Machine you need to check and be sure that TM is backing up your external drive

    how can i designate the location of the purchased music from itune store?, how can i designate the location of the purchased music from itune store?

    Hi,
    Thanks.  I know how to do that, however, I thought it only works with the imported content not the purchased ones.  The reason for wanting this was that I keep all my music in NAS drive for SONOS (the wireless music system) will need the music to be in NAS so that it can play music while the mac is on sleep mode.
    Anyhow, I will try again and let you know if it does work.
    Thanks again.

  • How can we export the Primary key values (along with other data) from an Advantage database?

    One of our customers is moving from our application (which uses Advantage Database Server) to another application (which uses other database technology). They have asked us to help export their data, so that they can migrate it to another database system. So far, we have used the Advantage Data Architect (ARC32) "Export Table Structures as Code" functionality to generate SQL. We used the "Include existing data" option. The SQL contains the necessary code to recreate the tables and indexes. The customer's IT staff will alter the SQL statements as necessary for their new system.
    However, there is an issue with the Primary Keys in these table. The resulting INSERT statements use AutoInc as the type for the Primary Key in each Table. These INSERT statements contains "DEFAULT" for the value of each of these AutoInc fields. The customer would like to output an integer value for each of these Primary Key values in order to maintain referential integrity in their new system.
    So far, I have not found any feature of ARC32 that allows us to export the Primary Key values. We had been using an older version of ARC32, since our application does not use the latest version of ADS. I did download the latest version of ARC32 (11.10), but it does not appear to include any new functionality that would facilitate doing this sort of export.
    Can somebody tell me if there is such a feature in ARC32?
    Or, is there is another Advantage tool to facilitate what we are trying to accomplish?
    If there are no Advantage tools to provide such functionality, what else would you suggest?

    George,
      It sounds like the approach you are using is the correct one. This seems to be the cleanest solution to me especially since the customer is able to modify the generated SQL statements for their new system.
      In order to preserve the AutoInc values I would recommend altering the table and changing the field datatype from AutoInc to Integer. Then export the table as code which will export the actual values. After the tables have been created on the new system they can change the field datatype back to an AutoInc type if necessary.
    Regards,
    Chris Franz

  • How can I control the PP (monitor) volume using my computer volume controls.

    I'm no longer able to control the PP (monitor) volume using my computer volume controls. I've always controlled the monitor volume using my computer volume levels, but starting today, that has changed.
    The volume is just playing at the level recorded with no way for me to turn down or up.
    I performed a disc repair and that didn't solve the problem.

    Does the OS volume control affect anything?  System beeps and sych?

  • How can you change the primary partition in Disk Utility?

    I have made another partition using Disk Utility to install Snow Leopard. On my main partition Lion is installed but when i boot into Snow Leopard and try to delete the Lion partition it comes with an error "This operation requires a newer version of Mac OS X for this disk". I tried deleting the partition from Recovery HD but it says it couldn't unmount the disk.
    Is this because Lion is the main partition, can you even delete the main partition?
    And if I do delete the main partition will i be able to move the Snow Leopard partition "upwards" in Disk Utility?

    1) First of all what is GUID.
    It's the "partition map scheme" Apple uses so your firmware knows what is what on your boot drive, what partitions there are and what format they contain.
    2) Secondly, would I just be able to make a new image in disk utility and use that instead of an external hard drive?
    No, you need something to boot off of and remove all data off the internal drive that's going to be reformatted with a new parttion, that's why you use the free Carbon Copy Cloner, it does both in one shot and it "blesses" the drive to make it bootable.
    3) When I use Carbon Copy cloner will it only copy Snow Leopard Installation or all of my files also?
    It copies everything in your Snow Leopard partition to the external drive, files, programs the OS everything except whats in the Trash.
    4) In your 8th step you mentioned repairing permissions on both. Both of what?
    Both drives, the internal and the external clone in Disk Utility (ignore the long list that appears)
    It's a safety check to make sure your permissions are set back to original settings, I think the newer version of CCC now does this, but I havent' checked, doesn't hurt to do it again.
    5) If you still feel like typing can you tell me how long this whole process might take?
    Formatting a external drive
    You should Erase with Zero option first, that will take a hour per 500GB
    Formatting shoud be rather fast, a few minutes.
    Cloning Snow Leopard to the external drive should take about a hour per 500GB
    Formatting the internal drive a zero erase first for safety should take another hour per 500GB
    Reverse cloning Snow Leopard back onto the internal drive should take another hour per 500GB
    Good thing about it, it's pretty much all ciick and go watch TV while it works.
    I was actually planning to make a Genius Bar appointment to fix it, by the way does that cost much?
    No idea, but you don't have to pay if you get a external drive for $70 or so, CCC is free.
    You get to keep the external drive and use it later for cloning as hard drives die all the time, the clone would get you back to using the computer.

  • HT201251 How can I change the primary Apple ID on my computer?

    I would like to change my primary Apple ID so that all my devices are on the same ID. Is this possible?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
    Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.

  • How to find out the primary key of oracle apps tables

    Hii,,
    My Question is How to find the primary key in the apps table...Is there any Query or other way to find out???
    for eg.
    I want to find out the primary key of the AP_INVOICES_ALL table...just tell me how can i get the primary key of this table.
    I am currently using toad for the query..
    Please guide me...

    you can define the primary key when you create table
    or add the primary key after the table creation by 'ALTER TABLE ... ADD constraint pk_nme primary key (col1, col2)';
    you could use below sql to check the detail of primary key:
    1) check out the table definition directly:
    select dbms_metadata.get_ddl('TABLE','EMP') FROM DUAL;
    2) check out the columns of primary key:
    select * from user_constraints where constraint_type='P' AND table_NAME='EMP';
    select * from user_cons_columns where CONSTRAINT_NAME='PK_EMP';And BTW, it is madam, not sir. :)

  • After upgrade to Mavericks, i can´t choose wich is the primary monitor

    I use 2 monitors, one in hdmi and the 2 in MDP. After upgrade OS, the 2 monitor is the primary, and i can´t choose wich is the primary monitor and the dock dont display on all monitor, like the announced.
    Someone know how can i fix this?
    That was the worst OS X update I've ever seen...

    First of all, IMHO, you do not need A/V software on a Mac running OS X. Most of that stuff will cause problems. There are NO documented viruses that affect a Mac running OS X. There is an occasional malware report, but that usually is a result of visiting odd sites.
    Use the MacAfee uninstaller and forget Avast. If you mean the MacAfee icon on the dock, just drag it off.

  • How can I verify my iCloud account if I can not access the primary email account associated with my Apple ID?

    The email address I had set for my Apple ID when I had originally signed up was through my college.  I have been out of college now for a few years and the email account has been deleted. I was trying to set up iCloud on my iPad and iPhone but it says I need to access the account to verify through email.  I have tried to change my Apple ID email to my current email address but it tells me I can not do this either because that email is set up as my rescue email.  How can I change my primary email address for my Apple ID or get my iCloud verified in this situation I'm in?

    Go to http://appleid.apple.com and click 'Manage your account'. You will be able to change the non-Apple email address you use as a login. You will then need to log out and in again on all your devices.
