HP Pavilion p6-2316s not seeing 2nd (dual) monitor

I have an HP Pavilion p6-2316s and i'm trying to do a dual monitor setup
my main monitor is working property- connected via VGA
my second monitor HP L1950g is connected via DVI-D
so I bought a DVI-D cable (Gold-plated DVI-D Digital / Digital Dual Link Cable 9.9Gbps 24+1 pin M / M, 6 FT / 1.8 M, Black) to connect to my second connection on my PC that is DVI-D as well
I believe I have updated my drivers
I also upgraded to windows 8.1
it doesn't even detect the 2nd monitor at all
Also
when I go into device manager under display adapters "AMD RADEON HD 6410D" the driver date is 12/6/13
then I see under Processors "AMD A4-3420 APU with RADEON HD GRAPHICS" the driver date is 4/21/09
not sure what the difference is....
been searching online for a solution but no luck yet.....

Photoshop CS5 for Windows not working on dual monitor setup

If I try to open Photoshop CS5 while my second monitor is plugged into my laptop (via VGA cable), it loads normally, but won't display any opened images. I get a gray background and nothing else. (see screenshot here: http://screencast.com/t/f1bHcM3E )
(I can even see the tiny image preview in the navigator, but not the image itself.)
However, t'll work just fine if I open Photoshop with the second monitor disconnected and THEN plug it in, so it's not a problem with the dual monitors in general...just when first opening it. It's annoying because, if I'm working on a project and realize I have to make a quick image tweak in Photoshop, I have to unplug the monitor and then rearrange all my windows after Photoshop's done loading and I can plug it back in.
Does anyone have any idea what's up with this? I can't seem to find any information online that specifically mentions this issue. For reference, I'm using Windows 7 on a Lenovo laptop.
Thanks!

Oh, that's possible. I went and read the detailed specs for my computer and it seems like it has both Intel and NVIDIA. Could that be it? (Computer hardware issues are not my area of expertise.)

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?

CC 2014 Palette Form Fields Not Recognized with Dual Monitors

When I'm using a dual monitor setup, my second palette monitor (usually my MBP) can render palette form fields unclickable. For example, if I want to click into the form field to change the stroke size, my pointer clicks straight through to the finder as if the palette wasn't there. However, I'm still able to grab the top of the palette and move it to the main monitor. When I do this, the palette works fine, moving it back recreates the issue. This problem is intermittent, but has happened a handful of times in the last month.
So far I've experienced this with Illustrator CC and CC 2014 as well as Photoshop CC 2014.
My current setup is a 2013 2.6 GHz MBP with 10.9.4 and the most recent versions of CC and CC 2014.
Any ideas?

oh, forgot to say Mavericks 10.9.5 running on the mac pro..

Hyperlinks not working w/ dual monitor set up

I've found what appears to be a pretty bad bug in Keynote 09 that I'm hoping someone else can confirm.
If I connect my MacBook to an external monitor and turn off monitor mirroring so I can see my presenter screen on the MacBook and the main presentation screen on the external monitor, I lose control of all hyperlinks that I have in the presentation. Thus far, I have tested this with simple hyperlinks that link to another slide in the presentation.
Using either the trackpad or a connected usb mouse, I can place the cursor over the link area and the cursor icon changes as expected, but tapping on the link with either source does nothing. If I turn monitor mirroring on, I gain all control and am able to select the hyperlinks in the running presentation.
So, if I want to run a two monitor presentation so I can have my presenter notes in front of me, I cannot use hyperlinks.

Have you treid moving the mouse over to the second screen?
This worked for me.

HP Pavilion dv7-2250ed and dual monitor setup

Good evening,
Currently I own a HP Pavilion dv7-2250ed notebook using a dual monitor setup (notebook display + extra monitor)
I wondered if it would be possible to hook 2 monitors to this laptop? (notebook display + extra monitor + extra monitor)
If this causes the problem, the notebook display isn't requered.
Also, if not, is there a dockingstation for this brand which supports the above?
Kind Regards,
Cor van Noorloos

I have attempted to connect one monitor via HDMI and the other one via the VGA interface.
Using Windows 7 OS and "default configurations" (Control Panel\Appearance and Personalization\Display\Screen Resolution) it is possible to use both external monitors as desktop. However the laptop screen will go blank. So at any time it appears to be possible to have an extended desktop with only two screens.
- Does HP have any drivers/solutions that make it possible to extend the desktop from "Mobile PC" display to two additional desktops?
- Has anyone tried third party software (e.g.. UltraMon)?
- Is there a technical restriction (e.g.. Videocard capability)?
- How about using a Linux OS (e.g.. Ubuntu)?
- What external Hardware exists that would enable me to extend my desktop to three or more monitors simultaneously?
Many thanks in advance.
It's the graphics card and the number of physical connections available. You might have 3 connections (notebook display being one) but the graphics card likely does not support more than 2 monitors. Intel graphics only support 2, however you may be able to find some AMD chips that will support more however that would be a major upgrade.

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.)

HP paviliion p7-1423W Dual Monitor

I have this HP pavilion product and wish to run dual monitor on it. It has two display ports DVI-I and DVI-D, it came out of the box with a DVI-I to VGA adapter, which I am using for my main screen, I recently bought a DVI-D to Analog VGA(i have a HP v17 which is analog) I've changed the only possible setting in my BIOS that I can find that deals with display was labeled something about VGA i enabled it and still my screen displays "No Input Signal", I've tried this DVI-D port with my main monitor and it does the same thing. I've looked in the Intel HD Graphics GUI the only screen showing up is my Dell(main) the only other option for display is "Intel WiDi" which i dont have a wifi display. Anyone have any insight on how I can get dual monitors working. According to the user manual and the reviews I've read about this product it's able to handle two monitors so I dont see why I cant get it working.

3 - DVI-D (digital only) 4 - DVI-I (digital and analog)
==========================================================
Looking at ports #3 and #4, notice that port #4 (DVI-I) has "cross" with four pins surrounding it while port #3 (DVI-D) doesn't have those four pins. Please see Wikipedia article entitled "Digital Visual Interface (DVI)" for more information on this subject. From the previously mentioned article;
"This is a passive DVI-to-VGA adapter. This adapter will NOT work with a DVI-D output. It requires a DVI-I or DVI-A output to get the analog signal to a VGA input (even if the adapter looks like a DVI-D). An expensive active converter would be required for a DVI-D output to VGA input."
Note that an expensive active converter may have video image quality issues, which could impair the value of this device versus the cost. Based on the specs, both of your monitors support VGA only. You have several options to resolve your issue;
1) Buy an active DVI-D to VGA converter (costly with possible poor image quality)
2) Buy a USB-to-video adapter such as an eVGA UV Plus+ UV39 (not good for gaming or high-bandwidth content video)
3) Purchase a new video card that supports your desired configure (may require replacing the power supply)
4) Purchase a new monitor that supports at least one DVI-D digital input (depending on size, may be expensive)
Please send KUDOs

Dual Monitor with iMac?

I have a iMac from early 2009 and wanted to use it as an external monitor for my laptop which has Windows 8.1 as it's OS. So my question is without using any software such as Synergy, Air Display, etc is there anyway I can make the iMac an external monitor for my laptop. I also have boot camp set up with Windows 7 as it's OS and I'm not sure if that's any help or not making this dual monitor setup work.
I was going to buy a mini displayport to VGA adapter (iMac (Early 2009) - Technical Specifications says: "Mini DisplayPort output port with support for DVI, VGA, and dual-link DVI via adapter," so I am assuming I cannot use HDMI) and use that to connect my laptop and the iMac together. And so I was wondering if that'll work out if I'm on windows partition in boot camp or not.

Laptop Specs: http://www.asus.com/Notebooks_Ultrabooks/N56VM/
Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Can't do it as far as I know. The mini display port on your Mac is for output only. You need a late 2009 or later iMac to do Target Display Mode Target Display Mode: Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

FX5600 VTDR128 - Disabling dual monitors!

Hi all
Can anyone help me! Need to disable dual monitor support on the above card. Its driving me nuts because it will not let me play medal of honour or half life while kazaa is running. Ive done a bit of reading and the most likely cause is opengl not liking the dual monitors (well im hoping it is!!). All works well until i start kazaalite and even if i close it i get the error "GLW_StartOpenGL() - could not load OpenGL subsystem" on medal of honour and similar on HL.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Many Thanks

Not absolutely sure
I have tried the 44.03 drivers and it remains the same....however i am getting this problem more intermittently now. Sometimes it works sometimes it doesnt!
fine at the minute
just read previously that if dual monitors was disabled (never going to use this feature anyway!) then the problem disapears
Thanks!

[SOLVED]Getting Dual Monitors To With Nvidia Cards Under Arch

Just got a second monitor and I am trying to set it up to work with arch.
I have 2 nvidia cards with 1 monitor plugged into each.
Reading through the wiki: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/DualScreen
When I try
xrandr -q
after downloading and installing:
pacman -S xorg-xrandr arandr
I get the message:
RandR extension missing
So not sure what is going on here... (***EDIT: Worked after rebooting***)
Output for:
xrandr -q
is:

Itunes crashes on addition of artwork to movie folder and apple tv (2nd generation) will not see itunes while itunes plays playlist over wireless network to airport express??

I have 4 non apple pc exhibiting same issue. Whether you have ten movies on board the pc or 500 on external storage Itunes locks up after you "get info" and try to add video cover from IMDB whether the art is in my pictures on PC or off USB key / external storage. Very frustrating to the extent that I bought a macbook thinking that it may be a non apple issue and bingo same issue whether films on macbook or on nas/ external usb. Effectively itunes may be made to crash by adding artwork!
2nd Issue noticed at weekend I have a small music library of approx. 35gb music in itunes music folder when a playlist was being played within itunes and airplay was selected to an airport express that is connected to distributed music system in house all works well during party. Guest have access to DJ app via remote app or control of content being player. My kids disappeared into the front room and while playlist on notices 2 things. The ipod touch ( 4 mths old) would not connect to apple tv player 2nd generation while airplay on to music system and the infra red remote remote worked fine but apple tv would not see video files in itunes while airplay on. When airplay disabled all absolutley fine , re- enabled airplay and apple tv bumped again. I have a wireless N router and have successfully had 2 apple tv 2nd generation working off itunes video files without issue. There are delays but both are seen in remote app and both players see itunes folders. I would have thought video streaming to apple tv players sucked up more bandwidth that one airplay to airport express and one apple tv 2nd gen.
Anyone experienced same

OK - I managed to fix this. Will document for others.
I started to think it was a firewall thing. So I turned off both my Windows 7 firewall and my BT Home hub firewall. It started working!
So turned back on the BT home hub firewall - still working. So it must be a windows 7 firewall.
Went in and checked that Itunes was there as an exception... Yep. So why still not working?
Found out that the entry in my Windows 7 firewall said I-Tunes - but when you looked at the details button it wasnt pointing to a program - it was just blank.
So added a new entry and pointed that at the I-Tunes exe file.
Now all working...

I have a Apple Power Mac G5 Dual 2.3 GHz/6GB RAM/500GB HDD/Superdrive PowerPC Desktop and just bought an Airport Extreme card for it. The card is recognized but will not see the in-house network. This is a pre-intel computer. Do I need an antennae?

This is a pre-intel computer. Do I need an additional antennae? If so, which one because my research is confusing me about what is supposed to work with this computer.

Please check out the following Apple Support article to see if your particular Power Mac model supports an external Wi-Fi antenna.

2nd Gen ATV I can hear but not see on the TV when trying to stream TV from the iPad2

You can look at the ipad under settings, general, about and see if it's 4.3.3.
Or when you connect the ipad to the computer with itunes, it'll tell you on the first tab if you need an update.
