Import Box comes up on my right (2nd Monitor) Screen

I have 2 monitors set up to use in FCP. My left screen is my main screen and my right screen is my 2nd monitor that I put the Browser on. When I go to Import files and the box comes up and asks me to choose a file, it appears on my left screen. I want it to appear on my right screen. I had it like this on my old Mac. How can I get the import box to appear on my right screen?
I am now using a Mac Pro with Snow Leopard using FCS 2.
Thanks in advance.

Hi again,
I just tried what you said to try and it still did not work. I went to the Browser, right clicked and went to "Import Files." The Dialog box appeared and I moved it over to the Left Screen and then I found the file I wanted to import, and pressed choose. The file went into the browser. I went to import another file and the Dialog box appeared on the Right Monitor again.
Is there a setting in Snow Leopard Preferences or in Final Cut that I have to change?
Thanks in advance

2nd Monitor Screen Capture

I have been using Captivate 8 for a few weeks. The first week, everything worked perfectly! Loved it. Then, for some reason, it quit recognizing my 2nd screen. It would no longer capture anything from there. I have to more everything over to my #1 screen for it work, which it does well and I can get what I need. The settings remain the same from screen 1 to screen 2, so I'm not sure what the problem is. Does anyone have any ideas?
A colleague is having the same problem, by the way. We are going to be doing A LOT of recording, it would be great if we could use multiple screens.
Thanks, everyone.

I am experiencing the same issue -- except that I am a new user of Captivate 8 and from the first day I used the application, I was unable to record anything on a screen other than my primary screen. At first, I thought it wasn't recording at all, but via research in the forum, I noticed that multiple monitors seemed to be an issue, and I tested. Only the primary monitor will record.
I have a laptop with a docking station, and 2 other monitors. One of the monitors is designated at the primary screen.
Here's what happens... I set up the recording and drag the red box to my second monitor, which has the application I want to record. I click around, and nothing happens. When I click back on the Captivate icon (on the primary screen), a single screen shot is taken - FROM THE SECOND MONITOR - and recorded into the Captivate module.
So, it isn't as though it can't find the monitor. It isn't recognizing any clicks on the screen. I am able to take screen shots manually, but that's a pain during a software simulation. Too easy to forget a step!

How to create a popup notification in lower right corner of screen

Hi
I am fairly new to GUI building in Java. I am using Netbeans 5.0 and currently developing a desktop application. I wanted to display informational messages from the application to come up in lower right corner of screen - similar to when in MSN or Yahoo messenger if new person signs in. Similar pop-up is also found in Norton when it finishes live update.
Currently I am using JOptionPane.showMessageDialog to do this, but it would be more appealing with messages showing on the side without interrupting the application user.
Can someone point me to what I should look at to achieve this? Any sample code would be great help.
Thanks

Use JFrame from javax.swing package. JOptionPane is a built-in dialog that is located at the center of its parent component. With JFrame u can specify the position of your GUI. Try to read the Sun's java tutorial on Creating GUI with Swing: http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/index.html

Using 2 monitors. I can't get my Layers Pallet to move to the 2nd monitor

I'm using 2 monitors. I can't get my Layers Pallet to move to the 2nd monitor screen. It is simply locked to the right side of my 1st monitor. A solution would be great. Sorry if it's a noob question.
Thanks for your time.
Monty

No problem. We've all had newbie questions at one time or another.
However, I am going to have to put on my clairvoyant hat and guess you are running Photoshop 10.0.1 (CS3). :/
In CS3, do NOT attempt to move the palette well, i.e. the dark gray zone above the palettes. That you cannot move.
Instead, grab each palette individually by the light gray bar just at the top of each palette.

Organizer 11 flashes continuously in 2nd monitor?

I just installed the trial version of Premiere Elements 11, which works fine on my primary monitor, but when I place Organizer on the 2nd monitor, the 2nd monitor screen flashes continuously. Using Windows 7 with all updates; ATI Radeon HD 4290 with currrent drivers. All other software, including other Adobe products, work fine on second monitor. Searched Adobe site and Google without success. Frustrated in Virginia.

Welcome to the forum.
I see similar, even with the latest nVidia video driver, BUT in my case, my XP-Pro is the limiting factor. nVidia has not released an updated driver for my GeForce 8800M GTX chip FOR that OS.
With Win7, I would have thought that the latest Catalyst driver for your AMD/ATI card would not exhibit that flashing. However, there have been some recent posts (mostly to the Photoshop forum) on some recent issues with the latest AMD/ATI Catalyst drivers, and especially with PS CS 6. What is the Catalyst version that you have installed? In many of those display issue threads in the PS forum, the "fix" was to roll back to an earlier version. Also, are your two displays the exact same, with the exact same resolution?
PrE 11 (and PS CS 6, PrPro CS 6 and After Effects CS 6) relies more heavily on the video driver, than most other programs will.
In my case, my display is perfect with older PrE, PrPro PS and AE versions, but I get the flashing (and trails) in PrE 11. My fix will be to update my OS on the laptop (though a new laptop is being shipped with Win7), since nVidia has ceased support for my XP-Pro and that nVidia chip.
Good luck,
Hunt

When I right click to save a picture why doesn't the box come up to choose where to put it?

When I right click to save a picture why doesn't the box come up to choose where to put it?
Or if I'm trying to upload a pic to a site say for instance a job site and trying to upload a resume and when I click on the button nothing happens.
This is very frustrating when I have a lot of time invested on the site I'm on and can't upload.

Ahh.. :)
A-Go to upper left corner and select preferences. In general tab,there is an option to ask everytime whenever you are going to put your downloading files.
B-Update your browser and reset it.Might be you are unable to upload because of viruses too. So make sure to scan your pc by a good antivirus. Okay? :)
Thank you for asking a question

I stupidly uninstalled the version of iTunes I had working on my notebook when the update kept failing and am now unable to get anything happening at all.

I had probs with 7.2. Reloaded 7.1 works fine. I think 7.2 needs some more work before it will work for me.

When I try to print from a web page (email printing is fine), it doesn't "prepare" and printer error box comes up with "unknown error occurred while printing".

You need to do a clean reinstall.
Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
* Firefox 5.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
* Uninstall your current Firefox version.
* Do not remove personal data when you uninstall the current version.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
* It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder] and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

When I plug in my iphone 4S to my 64-bit computer a error box comes up in my 64-bit itunes that reads (This iphone cannot be used because the required software is not installed. Run the Itunes installer to remove itunes, than install the 64-bit version of itines.) This just started a few weeks ago. I've done a system restore on my computer, deleated and reinstalled the 64-bit itunes several times, did a registery clean, rebooted. Nothing seems to work it will not pick up my phone.

Let's try a standalone Apple Mobile Device Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of why it's not installing under normal conditions.
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
http://www.rarlab.com/
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi (or AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi) to do a standalone AMDS install.
(If it offers you the choice to remove or repair, choose "Remove", and if the uninstall goes through successfully, see if you can reinstall by doubleclicking the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi again.)
Does it install (or uninstall and then reinstall) properly for you? If so, can you get a normal iTunes install to go through properly now?
If instead you get an error message during the install (or uninstall), let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

Print dialog box comes up after 30 sec delay-why?

Hi,
I am in Ai CS4. The first file I open, when I go to print it takes just over 30 secs for the print dialog box to come up. The next time I print, no problem, pops up right away. All subsequent file print dialog boxes come up immediately. Quit Illustrator and it starts all over again. Rebuilt permissions, then rebuilt from startup disk, trashed preferences. Tried changing default printer. Nothing seems to solve this. Mac Quad-Core Intel Xeon, OSX 10.6.3
Any ideas out there?
Thanks
Marcia

Thanks, I'll give that a try. Appreciate your assistance!

Subject: Print dialog box comes up after 30 sec delay-why?
I know you are on a Mac, but on windows a similar problem and even a crash can
occur when your default printer spooling service is set to manual instead of
auto.
Either set your default printer to a virtual printer like "Adobe PDF" or go
into the printer settings and set spooling to automatic.

Desktop comes up on 2nd monitor before showing up on Primary Display.

12 core mid 2010 macpro. My First monitor is a cinema display connected to DVI connecter on the ATI HD 5870 card and my 2nd monitor is hooked up via the first adjacent mini-display port (with an hdmi dongle). All works well except on boot, even though the display prefs are set so that the 30" cinema display is the primary one, the entire desktop shows up on the 2nd display for a moment and then after a "Blue Blink" everything shows up again on the primary monitor. The issue is that all of the items on the desktop are an utter mess. I also notice in the about this mac info pane (on displays) the HDMI connection is listed first, the Cinema HD display 2nd. Is this a bug? It seems to me that once you set the display priorities in the display preference pane the machine should be able to get it right the first time. Is there something else I need to set or is this something I have to live with.

Not sure what you mean about "display priorities". Where you plug these guys into your video card is immaterial.
Did you define the 30" as the "main monitor", i.e., the one containing the menu bar? Look at your Displays preferences, Arrangement tab. If the little white menu bar is not on your 30" drag it there. That is then where your boot displays should show.
It wouldn't hurt to click the detect displays button the displays preferences and also do a smc and pram reset.
...the entire desktop shows up on the 2nd display for a moment and then after a "Blue Blink" everything shows up again on the primary monitor. The issue is that all of the items on the desktop are an utter mess.
What this sounds like to me is that for some reason when you desktop is coming up after logging in is that the "other" monitor is where it is being drawn, and then the 30" is enabled, made the main monitor, but the resolutions got screwed up in the switching, and that screwed up the icon and window layout. If I didn't know better it sounds like you are using SwitchResX and don't have it configured correctly. I say that because I believe I could simulate what you describe by setting up SwitchResX to do that.
Currently I have 3 monitors attached to my system. One is for the TV and defaulted to be disabled using SwitchResX. When I log in I also get that "blue flash" but that is SwitchResX setting up my default monitor configuration as it disables the TV connection (SwitchResX is a login item). But since I have a proper SwitchResX configuration my primary monitor (27") and my secondary monitor (VGA) come up properly (after the flash). But it's that flash you describe that made me think of SwitchResX.
As for the System Profiler displays information, I don't know what order it decides to list that stuff. But I don't think it has anything to do with a "priority".

Hi Dewey,
Are you trying to convert via Adobe Reader? If so, are you able to close and restart Reader (you may need to force quit, or use Task Manager to quit Reader if it's truly frozen)? After restarting, choose Help > Check for Updates to make sure that you have the most current version.
And, if updating Reader doesn't help (or you already have the most current version), please try converting that same file using the ExportPDF web interface at https://cloud.acrobat.com.
Please let us know how it goes.
Thanks!
