I have two displays; how do I change the screen where Firefox opens?

Firefox used to open on my main desktop display. Now for some reason it opens on my side display which I use for another dedicated purpose, and I always have to drag it back to my desktop main screen. How can I keep it there?

If Firefox is maximized then make the window smaller and drag that window over to the correct monitor and close Firefox to save that setting.
After restarting you can maximize again.

  • How do I change the default application to open files.

    I am rather new to Mac OS (using Leopard). I am rather frustrated, that I have not been able to find a way to change the default application that opens PDF files. I looked around the System Prefernces, couldn't find it, searched the Web, nothing. And I could not find an answer in this forum either.
    So here is my question. How do I change the default application for opening PDF files from Preview to Adobe Reader? I do not want to have to click "open with" every time, I want to open a PDF file.
    And how do I do this for other files also? For instance, I may want to open images files with Photoshop instead of Preview.

    Hey ! I was going mad with the same question - and I'm not a complete newbie - so thanks to William for answering it - I knew I'd seen that dialog somewhere, but just couldn't find it. Text edit was driving me crazy telling me that .ppt files were screwed, now I've got em to open with Powerpoint...
    In answer to your last question, Craig, the dialog that appears to ask if you're sure specifically says the change will relate to all .pdf files ( or .ppt or .whatever ), so it won't stop Preview from opening other types of files.
    Thanks for the help - searched Apple support in vain on this one...

  • How do I change the default program to open Pages docs to the old (4.3) version instead of the new one (5.0)?

    How do I change the default program to open Pages docs to the old (4.3) version instead of the new one (5.0)? When I do what Apple said and go to a Pages file in finder and select "get info" then select "Pages 4.3" and "change all" it just defaults to the new one even though I'd selected the old one. Do I need to completely uninstall the new version of Pages or is there another work around because the new version of Pages comes dreadfully short of the features I need that are included in the old one?

    Eric Kraft wrote:
    HOWEVER, if you modified a document in 5.0, 4.3 can't open it. You'll have to use Time Machine to replace the modified version with an earlier version that was last modified in 4.3.
    Actually there is a workaround.
    If you open the file in Pages 5, it can then be exported on Pages 0.9 format to another folder. I had to do this as the document was only in iCloud and couldn't be recoverd by Time Machine.
    Worked for me!

  • How do I change the default software that opens when I click on a document?

    I'm not sure if this is the right neighborhood to post this question, but here goes. How do I change the default software that opens when I click on a document icon. I've been without MSWord for a long while, so all my word processing docs have been written in TextEdit, the stock mini-word processor that comes with OSX. Now I have MSWord and I no longer need TextEdit. Even more importantly, I'd like Word to automatically open when I click on a doc created in TextEdit. Adding ".doc" at the end doesn't do it. It's still refers to TextEdit to open the document.
    Any advice?
    Thanks,
    John

    Select a document of that type in the Finder, choose Get Info from the File menu, change the application under Open With, click on Change All, and confirm your action.

    How do I change the default folder that opens when uploading a file to the internet from my mac? (at the moment it automatically defaults to 'Downloads' folder)
    For example...
    I am on a webiste and wish to upload a photo.
    I click on select file on the website
    Finder opens and defaults to 'Downloads' folder (it happens with all wesbites)
    How do I change this?

    I am on a webiste and wish to upload a photo.
    I click on select file on the website
    You are attempting to download the picture to your computer not uploading photo to the website if I am understanding you correctly.
    To change the download direction, you must do so through your browser's Preferences.  If you are using Safari, hopefully, someone who uses Safari will help you and/or post over in their forums.  I do not use Safari.

    Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
    See "Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile":
    *https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile
    There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
    If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

  • How can I have two displays mirrored (4 total) on the mid-2013 mac pro?

    Hello.
    I have the mid-2013 Mac Pro (last model with PCIe slots). I would like to use 4 monitors; two in the regular extended desktop configuration, with two more that simply mirror the first two. I am sure I need some kind of splitter, or do I need another graphics card?

    I am sure I need some kind of splitter
    Another alternative is to get enough ports on display cards and use the Mirroring feature in Mac OS X. Any display can be mirrored with any other display by dragging the icon for a display onto the Icon for one you wish to mirror. The resolutions will be reset to one that can accommodate both displays.
    This works without adding ANY overhead if the two displays being mirrored are on the SAME display card.
