How do you make an application open on a specific monitor?

How do you make an application open on a specific monitor? I have two monitors, and I was able to get Firefox to open on the secondary display always by resizing it with the option or command key [I forget which one] and then quitting it. Now everytime I start it, it opens on the second monitor.
However, when I try to do the same with QuickTime [when playing videos], it always opens on the primary display no matter what I do with it. How do I make it always open on the secondary display?
Thanks in advance for any help!

Thanks for the suggestion, but no, Spaces is not what I want. I have two physical monitors, and simply want an application to always open on one monitor, not be able to switch back and forth between different desktops.

  • How do you make adobe X open the "combine pdf" window in the foreground?

    This may not be the correct forum for this question, but considering that I simply
    have not been able to get a reply in any other Adobe forum, I decided
    to just post this question to ALL Adobe forums until I get a response.........
    How do you make adobe X open the "combine pdf" window in the foreground?
    I am using a "Windows 7" computer at work with "Acrobat X Pro" and I'm constantly combining
    pdf's and tiff's in Acrobat.
    It would be nice if when I select 30 or 40 files to combine, the *******
    "Combine Supported Files in Adobe Acrobat" window would open in the
    foreground, not behind the 10 or so windows already open.
    I have been researching this for some time now with no solution.
    If the answer is that "IT CAN'T BE DONE", then that's fine. At least
    I will have an answer and can stop searching. If (as I suspect) it can
    be done, then kindly supply me with "step by step" instructions.

    Hi ,
    I guess that was a bug in that version .
    It does not happen in Acrobat XI and Acrobat DC .The window comes right in front of everything else .
    I wonder that was a bug and that was fixed the other versions.
    You could upgrade to the latest Acrobat version ,i.e Acrobat DC and you would not experience this anymore .

  • How do you make the dashboard open automatically at login?

    Ok, you know in your dock you can right click on any application icon and it will come up with some options, one of them being "Open at Login." Well, I want to automatically open the dashboard at login, but when I right click on the dashboard icon it does not give that option. How do I make the dashboard open automatically when I log in?

    There is a freeware app called "Dashboard Starter" that will start the DB up when you log-in, or anytime you force quit the Dock.app.
    Search www.macupdate.com for it.

  • How do you make all bookmarks open in safari when launched?

    Hello Apple community! New mac user here. I really want to know how to automatically have all bookmarks opened after launching safari. Thanks so much!

    There is no way to open "all" bookmarks at launch
    But you can open a group of them at launch as tabs.
    Click the Book icon in the Bookmarks Bar.
    Click Bookmarks Bar in the side bar
    At the bottom left of the right side pane there is + sign. Click on it.
    A new folder will be created.  Name it.
    Checkmark the box  under the column "Auto-Click".
    The new folder will appear in the Bookmarks Bar
    Add your favorites to it. 
    Click "Add Bookmark" in the Safari toolbar and select the new folder.
    When you launch Safari, items in that folder will appear as tabs when you
    click on that folder in the Bookmarks Bar.
    Best,

  • How do you make the actually open safari iCloud tabs sync between iMac and iPad?

    I'm trying to have it so the web browser tabs I actually have open and viewing at any time, are synced between my iMac and my iPad.
    This doesn't appear to work via iCloud Safari tabs, you just get the tabs open on your iMac as a list you can access on the iPad if you go digging through options.
    Any help would be very much appreciated!

  • How do you make a video open as soon as page is loaded? Also, which program is best for video?

    I have a page with a quicktime video, and am wondering how to do that. Is there a setting in Dreamweaver to do that? ALSO, what's the best video program to do when displaying movies on the web? I'm working with quicktime and most seem to have it. Or do they? What video program is the least likely to create problems with users?

    what's the best video program to do when displaying movies on the web? I'm working with quicktime and most seem to have it. Or do they? What video program is the least likely to create problems with users?
    Flash. If you're exporting Quicktime files you can export as h.264 that will play in Flash Player 9+
    Use the JW player to play h.264 files in a flash player.

    Something that works  (provides Acrobat the application precedence in the OS that is requisite for this) --
    Minimize the 10 or so application windows before engaging use of Acrobat's "combine".
    That'll let the Acrobat dialog windows display front and center.

  • How can you make one button preform different actions in Xcode?

    How can you make one button "preform a click" and "orderfront"? Is that possible? Because what I am doing is making a welcome window to my application for Mac OS X 10.6, and I have two buttons in that window, one says "Connect" which connects a a WebView to a url and the other button opens up the main window. So how can I a make a button do multiple things at once??

    Ah - If you are just using bindings between various objects from Interface Builder, you can reduce your application code a bit (sometimes quite a bit), but there is only so far you can go. Typically variables and routines are defined in your application that Interface Builder hooks into, so that your application code (usually Objective-C, but can be others) can use these variables and routines to determine what is happening in the user interface.
    I'm not sure how up-to-date the project code is (or what programming code you are familiar with), but you can take a look at Apple's Cocoa Application Tutorial to see what is (usually) involved in creating an application.

  • How do you make room on your start up disk.  i am trying to do the update but don't have enough space

    how do you make room on your start up disk.  i am trying to do the update but don't have enough space

    Try this:
    1. Open "Finder", then navigate to "Movies" on the left side. Click on "iMovie Projects"
    2. Move desired movies and clips to trash, or your flash drive.
    *PS* Its dangerous to have a full hard drive, I would recommend either trashing, or transferring files to another computer. Trash applications you no longer use as well.

  • When I open a pdf, it used to open in Preview. Now my iMac requires Adobe Reader, but I prefer Preview. How can I make my iMac open pdf in Preview again?

    When I open a pdf, it used to open in Preview. Now my iMac requires Adobe Reader, but I prefer Preview. How can I make my iMac open pdf in Preview again?

    If an image opens in a different application but you want it to always open in Preview when you double-click it, do this one time: Control-click the file, let go of the Control key, press the Option key, then choose Always Open With > Preview. Or, select the image file, choose Get Info from the File menu, then change the "Opens with:" pop-up menu choice to Preview.

  • How do I make an application the default?

      I installed Microsoft Office 2011.  I do not want to use Outlook for mail.  I want to use Apple Mac Mail.  Sometimes Outlook opens instead of Mail.  For instance if I click on an email link in Safari.  How do I stop this? 
      How do I make an application the default?  This would be the same as make a file type open with a default application in Windows.
      I hope someone can help.  I have looked in all the help files and not found the answer.
    Joe from Ohio

    Re setting a default app for email -
    Start up Mail. Open Mail's Preferences (Preferences in the Mail menu). Go to the General tab if it does not open with that chosen. First item in that screen, "Default email reader" - use the pulldown menu to select the app you wish to use. Then close the Preferences window and quit Mail.
    Re setting a default app for a given file type -
    Select a file of that type by clicking it once, then press Command-I (Get Info in File menu). Look down in the Get Info window to the section "Open with:" - use the pulldown menu there to select the app you wish to use for that file type, then click the "Change All..." button. From then on, double-clicking any file of that type should open it using the app you set.
