How to enable a dual monitor mode

I have a MSI FX52000 VTD-128 board which suppose to support a dual monitor mode. It has D-Sub analog, DVI and VIVO connectors.
Would it be possible to connest primary monitor to DVI and secondary to analog output or only Video Out can be used for the secondary monitor?

Have you installed the latest "Forceware" Drivers?...I think MSI's 52.70's are great...How you should go about setting up for two displays is to go into NVIDIA Driver Control Panel>trouble shooting>Click on the "Detect Displays" Button after you connect the other monitor ...Sean REILLY875

Slideshow on 1st monitor (while in dual monitor mode)

Apparently, Lightroom expects you to always use the second monitor for slideshows and does not allow you to use the first (no options available as far I my research went).
My 1st monitor is bigger and would be my choice for slideshow presentations. I am sure I'm not the only person with this setup.
(BTW: I don't quite understand why there's two shortcuts for slideshows on a Mac - "Cmd + Return" and "Shift + Alt + Cmd + Return". In dual monitor mode they do exactly the same, even though the distinction suggests they would have something to do with the target monitor...)

me too originally! Until I remembered that LR never works like that!! The module system can sometimes get confusing trying to remember which things apply throughout LR and which things only on a module...however there is usually some way round every problem in the end,and one of the joys (or frustration dependant on how busy I am) is discovering it.

Elements 11 Preview Window not visible in dual monitor mode

When I go to dual monitor mode the preview window is hidden. I can still hear the audio from the clip but I can't see the video window. It is still hidden when I switch back to single monitor mode. The only way to bring it back is to close out the program and reopen it. Does anyone know where it goes and how to make it visible?

MAINEEDIT
I have just set up for Premiere Elements 11 Dual Monitor Mode in Windows 8 64 bit computer.
How do you have your monitors set up...Extend Across.. or other?
I am not having any problems keeping track of what I believe you are referring to as the "Preview Window". So please excuse
if I double check with you via the following screenshot.
Preview Window which can be brought up
a. double clicking the file in Project Assets
b. double clicking the file on the Expert workspace Timeline
I am going to go over this one more time with my Premiere Elements 11 and Windows 8 64 bt computer to see
if I can create the situation that I am interpreting that you have.
Thanks.
ATR
Add On...This especially makes me ask....
When I reopen the program the preview window appears in its normal position.
The Preview Window is going to close when you save/close the project. As you saying that you re-opened the project
to find the Preview Window opened?

Bridge cc expand to dual monitor mode when copying or deleting photos?

why does bridge cc expand to dual monitor mode when copying or deleting photos?

You say your running 10.5.6? Why haven't you updated to 10.5.8?
FWIW, I never had color issues under 10.5.X, however I have since upgrade to 10.6.

Dual monitor mode causes lag in edit response

Has anyone seen this problem? In single monitor mode the response to edit moves is quite fast, in dual monitor mode that is a frustrating lag in response. Thanks in advance for any help you can share.

The bug has been reported
Thanks a ton, I was trying to figure this out now and then and was getting frustrated.

Not pleased with PreEl 11 dual monitor mode

finally got PreEl 11 working on my PC and do not like the dual monitor mode. in previous PreEl programs i could detact the monitor and out it in to another screen and still have all the tools on the other screen. now the monitor and most of the tools move with the monitor so i have a split work space. not very handy at all. i am HOPING that someone can figure out a way to move just the monitor and not everything else with it...

If you've got a feature request, you should contact Adobe on their web site. (They're likely developing the next version now, so it's a good time to do so!)
This is a user-to-user help forum. We can't do anything about the interface itself. (And, yes, breaking it into a timeline and everything else is really the only option for version 11.)

How to set up dual monitors with a Mac Mini

The Mac Mini has only one video output port. I very nearly didn't buy a Mac Mini system because I need to work with two monitors. I use the second monitor to display information in Web pages, PDFs, and Word documents while I am working in the main window.
However, I discovered after quite a bit of Googling that it is possible to set up dual monitors using an inexpensive USB video adapter (about $70).
So I bought my Mini (1.83Ghz, 2GB RAM, 200GB 7200rpm Seagate Momentus), and I also bought a USB video adapter called the EVGA Plus.
I've installed this system and used it now for a week, and I am quite pleased with it. So I thought I'd pass this information along to anyone who's interested. Please note that, although this is my first post to this forum, this isn't spam -- I have no financial relationship with any of the companies mentioned here, other than as a customer.
LINKS
EVGA Plus:
http://www.evga.com/articles/409.asp
Their literature does not mention Mac OS X compatibility. However, the underlying technology is made by Display Link. You can download beta Mac OS X drivers from their site:
Go to Display Link to download the beta Mac OS support -- see
http://www.displaylink.com/macbetadrivers.html
The disk image includes a very well written PDF document that explains the driver's status and limitations.

NOTES
* The DisplayLink driver is beta. It doesn't support 2D or 3D accelerated graphics. You can't use it to display iPhoto slide shows, for example. However, I need to be able to display a Web page, document, or PDF in the second monitor while I am working in the first. I've found this solution to be quite acceptable for this purpose.
* Several other companies make USB video units that use the same DisplayLink support, so they should work, too. However, they are more expensive -- largely because they're set up to function as port expanders, I believe. The EVGA Plus was the only unit priced under $100 when I did my search.
* USB does not have very much bandwidth, so you might be surprised that to hear that it's possible to use USB to drive a monitor! You'll find that the display isn't as fast as DVI, but for my purposes, I've found it quite acceptable.
* The EVGA Plus comes with a terrible USB to mini USB cable that will cause all sorts of display problems. Replace it with the type of cable that is used to hook up digital cameras to a USB port.
* Once everything is installed, you can use the Displays in System Preferences (or just click the icon on the menu bar) to adjust the second monitor. You can choose display resolutions (depending on your monitor's ability, of course). Rotation works. You can also right-click the second monitor and choose a different background color or graphic.
Don't expect miracles. Don't go this route if you want to run videos or games in the second monitor. And if you get an EVGA Plus, replace that horrible cable!
I hope this information is helpful.
Bryan

There has been quite a lot of discussion here about driving twin displays with the mini, and more recently about the potential for USB video adapters to facilitate this, particularly in the light of several vendors claiming they have suitable MacOS devices and drivers 'almost ready'.
The DisplayLink solution seems to be the one most suggested as viable, though it's a pity they have not yet been able to move their drivers from beta - I suspect that puts a few people off. It's therefore good to hear of a real-world experience that should help others decide whether or not to go this route!

How do I have dual monitor for different windows

I wanted to use two monitors. One to monitor my file while the other as my working window. I am using Imac Intel Duo Core 17" and I heard that I need to buy the adapter. If I buy the adapter, what else need I click so that the FCE can be split into 2 separate monitors. Is there a function? Has anyone done this before?

You can change this in the System Preferences>Display, but a second monitor should default to a dual monitor arrangement. You just have to drag the windows you want onto the second monitor.

HT5219 How would I connect dual monitors and also a firewire cable? Macbook Pro (Retina)

Currently I am using two thunderbolt to DVI connectors for the dual monitors, but I am left without any firewire cable connection for my audio interface. THe only adaptor I found was another thunderbolt to firewire, but since I already used these two ports, I am left with no options. I haven't been able to find any usb to firewire cable connections.
Are there any other adapators/ports I can use that I am not aware of?

Intermittent screen flash in dual monitor mode?

I've developed an interesting problem - A few months back there existed some fault with kde's treatment of the xf86-video-ati drivers which meant that, if you had compositing enabled, it would randomly segfault and die. This was slightly irritating.
So, recently, In an act of pure, stupid, and uninformed optimism, I decided to see what would happen if I just asked pacman to upgrade me to the latest version of kde (In case the problem from before has been fixed - for comedic effect).
This went predictably badly, although the fault in question does appear to have been fixed. However, as part of it's dependencies the new kde brought in new ATI drivers, and somewhere along the way an entirely new and exciting fault that causes my secondary monitor's image to flash to black for about 1 second in 7 has been picked up.
From my own investigating/googling so far, I've determined this is something to do with KMS and my display drivers. The flashing persists even in text mode, but only affects the secondary screen (The other one works fine). If I add nomodeset to my grub kernel boot line then the flashing ceases in text mode, but Xorg segfaults when I try and start it.
Has anyone else encountered this particular fault? Any advice on how to fix it?
Thanks!

Thanks for working that out, but I'm still horribly confused. I've been tinkering with things today to improve my boot speed (new kernel, messing with module loading and so on), and the problem seems to have gone away by itself. I have at no stage had anything to do with upower (it hasn't been installed).
How perplexing.
Anyway, problem solved, thanks everyone, and well done Sayo for working out the problem! (Even if it appears that MY problem was unrelated )

How do i get dual monitors to work with bootcamp (windows 7)

i have a macbook pro intel core i7
using a VGA adapter for connection of the monitor
when i use the mac side the dual screens work perfectly, but when i use bootcamp with windows 7 the screen stays blank, i know it ver recognizes it because when i drag my mouse over to the right it goes out of the screen and then i have to drag for a while before its back on the mac screen, so it is being used but not being displayed. also when i first start up windows its shows the boot screen on the monitor aswel but then goes blank.

If you are talking about MS Windows then you need to launch either Boot Camp or run it in Virtualization app such as Parallels or VM Fusion. You also need a valid license of MS Windows.However if that is not what you mean then you must be much more specific. For example:
"I want to share some files between my PC running Windows 7 and my new iMac running 10.9.3, how do I go about that?"

How do I configure dual monitors on JDS?

I just have installed Solaris 10u5 on a Dell E521 with an ATI Radeon X1300 Pro graphics card. This card has 2 connectors onto which I connect a FlexScan S1911 (DVI) and an Acer AL1916 (VGA).
I now have 2 problems:
1. the resolution is beyond usage (ie way too low which gives me huge letters/icons/etc.)
How can I fix it?
If I select "Change Desktop Resolution" from the desktop menu, I get an error msg saying that the Xserver does not support "XRandR".
I also tried kdmconfig in "ASCII mode" but the selections I find are not really useful nor do they show my graphics card.
2. I would like to use the above configuration as dual-head.
How/where do I configure this? (My /device only shows 1 entry and not 2 as I would have expected).
Thanx,
Thomas

For configuring the resolution, you'll have to use 'fbconfig' on the command line. See 'man fbconfig' for details. (This is because S10u5 still uses the Xsun server, which doesn't support resolution changes on the fly.)
For dual screen I believe you have to edit your /etc/dt/config/Xservers file. A quick google throws up a few working examples for Solaris 10, but the details may vary for your cards. Here's one for xinerama mode:
:0 Local local_uid@console root /usr/openwin/bin/Xsun :0 -nobanner +xinerama -dev /dev/fbs/ifb1 defdepth 24 defclass TrueColor -dev /dev/fbs/ifb0
And for non-xinerama:
:0 Local local_uid@console root /usr/openwin/bin/X -nobanner -defclass TrueColor -defdepth 24 -dev /dev/fbs/jfb0 left -dev /dev/fbs/pfb0b

Outlook 2010 sounds and Dual Monitor Mode

Every time I hook up a monitor (analog connector) to my laptop (lacks a digital monitor port), I lose system sounds only in Outlook 2010. I'm running Vista 64-bit. Other applications make system sounds, like Internet Explorer and Windows Media plays media just fine, but not Outlook 2010 (I had 2003 before, and didn't have a problem - it's only when I updated to 2010 that I ran into the problem). There is one time the sounds will play - right before I receive in my system tray a notification that there are 'critical updates' to be made to my system.
I tried turning off the monitor, but leaving it connected. Still no sound. It cannot be connected to my laptop for the sound rules to work in Outlook 2010.
I've gone to the Microsoft site and checked out all their recommendations. They don't have anything that comes close to addressing this (that I found). I figure that it is probably on the Outlook 2010 side, but am hitting a wall there. Figured I'd try here, where the hardware sits to fish for others' experiences.
Thanks

... ...,it started experiencing a perpetual Send/Receive mode and when this started, only outgoing emails have been possible.
So your Outlook will send out but not receive? Have you checked your email on the web based access?
Are you able to see any unread messages there? If you can, then it is most likely a setting in Outlook, or possibly a port is blocked on your network. Try to check if your incoming settings are correct in Outlook, you might want to contact your ISP
for the info.
