Is it possible to have 2 additional monitors?

Is it possible for me to have two additional monitors attached to my iMac? Making it a total of three screens?

You would need a device similar to the below to do this:

  • Possible to have 2 monitor  at 1920x1200 in mirror ??

    Is it possible to plug 2 monitor at 1920x1200 in mirror mode wirth a G5 DP 2 Ghz ???? at the moment i have a Dell 2407 at 1920x1200 and a Lacie running at 1600x1200 in another room in mirror mode. I would like to have the same 1920x1200 resolution in both room. Thanks

  • Is it possible to have "additive" presets?

    I’ve been mucking around recently with a preset that sets a bunch of development related settings along with a calibration profile. If I apply this to a new photo it’s great, but if, for example, I apply it to a photo that already has some exposure compensation then I lose my exposure compensation rather than simply altering the exposure compensation +/- the new value.
    Is such a thing possible?
    Cheers,
    James

    Indeed, this is a sorely, sorely missing feature and I would say my number 1 'gripe'. Working with raws, any available presets are basically useless, as they work in absolute mode: even though my RAW file may need adjustments just to look normal, those adjustments are thrown away when presets are applied.
    Or to put it another way: working with raws, there's no way to tell what a preset will actually do. A "Antique Photo" preset will do a completely different thing to a photograph taken in daylight, than to a photograph taken under fluorescent lights.
    Since we use Lightroom to enhance the workflow and work on hundreds of images from a shoot at a time (as opposed to PhotoShop which is useful when we need extensive editing to a single image), none of the workarounds make sense as they interrupt the workflow and force us to work on images one by one.
    Ideally, I would be able to run a pass through my images and "normalize" them all - exposure & white balance corrections.
    Then, I should be able to select them all, create virtual copies, and apply (say) a B&W preset. Then create another set of virtual copies and apply (say) a antique preset.
    This is simple not easily possible under current setup. It should be programatically trivial, however, to create an option for presets to be relative (add +10 to brightness, -500degrees to temperature, +5 to black, +10 to recovery, etc), instead of absolute (set brightness to 50 no matter what, set temperature to 3750 no matter what, etc).
    I'd pay money just for _this_ improvement, if it were available as a plugin even from a third party - so please! Help us out here

  • Possible to add a monitor to extend the desktop (not mirror)?

    Do this on all my desktop Macs for reducing clutter (holding palettes).
    iMac G5 20". Added a 17" VGA monitor via adapter, but only get them to mirror with same display settings for each. Want a continuation of the desktop.
    Is it possible to have another monitor with the iMac for this purpose?

    I am lost and need some assistance. I tried to install an anime program on our iMac and found we did not have enough available disc space. I then moved a bunch of software off the hard drive and onto the Applications and personal folders. However, I think I may have moved critical start up and operational files out of touch with the machine. I froze on the desktop with a spinning pin wheel. I unplugged the computer. When I plugged back in and tried starting it up I got to a black screen with grey and white alarms and alerts with code. I could not move from this spot. Then it sounded like an internal drive was starting to spin into orbit. I shut the computer off and I'm afraid I have ruined my best teaching aid. H-E-L-P!!!!!!

  • I have two monitor speakers that I would like to airplay to from my iMac. Is this possible? Is there an adapter or receiver? The monitor speakers are KRK VXT8.

    I have two monitor speakers that I would like to airplay to from my iMac. Is this possible? Is there an adapter or receiver? The monitor speakers are KRK VXT8.

    They have a trial version you can test before you purchase. It limits you to 10 minutes of streaming before it starts inserting noise into the stream.
    But you may not need it. I've read a bit further, and it appears that you may be able to stream any system audio to an Airport Express without needing AirFoil since you have Mountain Lion. I though it would work only with an Apple TV, but I've seen mention that it works with the AE as well (I don't have one to try). When you get your Airport Express set up, go to the Sound (speaker) icon in the menu bar, hold down the Option key, and click the icon. You may see the AE listed there as a selectable output device; if so, select it and all your system audio should be sent to the AE, including Spotify.

  • I have a 27" IMac.  I want to add additional monitors to it.  There is a vga slot for the first monitor.  I would like to add a second monitor but there is not another via slot.  Is there an adapter I can get for via to usb?

    Here's the problem I am trying to research for you...
    There does exist a way to add a second monitor via USB:
    USB 2.0 to HDMI Audio Video 1080P Adapter for Windows and Macbook
    It's the only device I know of that can do that.  The problem is that it wants a HDMI connection.  So that means a HDMI-to-VGA adapter or converter needs to be found (not VGA-to-HDMI, those are easier to find).
    Interesting article realted to this:
    Hdmi to vga adapter
    Maybe somthing like this converter will work. 

  • Ground Noise Problem Possibly Attributed to Samsung Monitor

    I have a Samsung SyncMaster 730b and a 15” Apple Powerbook G4 (1.67 GHz), powered by the standard Apple 65 watt power adapter. I typically connect my Samsung 730b monitor to my Powerbook to use it as a second display connected through a DVI cable. For some reason my power adapter plugged into the Powerbook is turning itself off, which fails to charge my battery and eventually drains the computer to nothing. I am able to get the power adapter to start charging again if I unplug it from the wall and then plug it back in.
    I have been troubleshooting the problem for months and have spent a lot of time researching online, including all of the pertinent Apple and Samsung support forums I can find. Apple says that the power adapter shutoff occurs because the AC adapter's over voltage protection feature senses ground noise and turns off the adapter. The company also says that it may not happen if the power adapter is plugged into an uninterruptible power supply (UPS).
    I have not tried a UPS yet because it will require a significant purchase and only some users on the support forums have found the UPS to be successful at stopping the power adapter shutoffs. I have reset the PRAM, NVRAM, and PMU that Apple and individual users have suggested and I continue to have the problem. The problem persists no matter what outlets, surge protector, or combination of the two is used for the Powerbook and/or monitor. I normally have additional peripherals connected to my computer, but the problem has persisted without any devices (other than the Samsung monitor) plugged into my computer.
    I have had the problem at my current apartment and my previous apartment. I have never had the problem in any other location I have used my laptop, but I have also never used my Samsung monitor in any location other than my current and past apartments. I have connected the laptop to a Westinghouse LCD television for more than a week and used that as a second monitor (to troubleshoot the problem). I have not had a problem with my power adapter while using the Westinghouse as a second monitor. I have only had the problem when my Samsung is connected to my Powerbook. The problem persists whether or not I use a VGA cable with DVI adapter or a straight DVI cable from the monitor to the laptop. The problem does not occur if the monitor is not plugged in to my laptop, regardless of whether or not it is powered on (e.g. my monitor turned on and searching for a signal that isn’t there does not cause the Powerbook to have a problem). The problem also persists whether I set the external monitor to a 60 hz refresh rate or a 75 hz refresh rate.
    *To recap, the problem is not solved by:*
    -Using a different monitor cable
    -Using a different power outlet for the computer
    -Using a different power outlet for the monitor
    -Using a different power outlet for the surge protector
    -Using a different surge protector for the computer
    -Using a different surge protector for the monitor
    -Bypassing the surge protector and plugging the computer straight into the wall
    -Resetting the computer’s PRAM
    -Resetting the computer’s NVRAM
    -Resetting the computer’s Power Management Unit (PMU)
    -Using a different refresh rate on the Samsung monitor
    -Unplugging all peripherals from the computer except for the Samsung monitor
    -Using the computer and monitor in a completely different apartment (on the other side of town)
    *The problem is solved by:*
    -Using a non-Samsung LCD TV as a second monitor
    -Not using an external monitor
    My troubleshooting leads me to believe that the Samsung monitor is causing a problem through its connection to the computer. I do not believe it is a problem with the monitor’s connection to the power outlets in the apartment because the problem does not occur when the monitor is powered on and unconnected to the computer. I therefore do not believe plugging the monitor and/or computer into a UPS will solve the problem.
    I do not believe it is possible for the monitor to be sending electrical noise out of itself and into the apartment’s power outlets, but if it is, I have one additional troubleshooting configuration I would try.
    I understand this is an elaborate description of my situation, but I hope it is helpful in showing the isolation of variables and troubleshooting actions I have followed. Have any other users encountered a similar problem? What do you believe the problem to be and what suggestions do you have for me to continue using my Samsung monitor?
    Thanks in advance for your assistance.

    Hey Lou and eww,
    Thanks for your quick replies.
    The problem started about a year ago in my previous apartment. I do not have any AC line control devices, but I don’t think my current neighbor’s connections are relevant because I had the problem in my previous apartment. My previous apartment was actually a room in a house and that is where my problem first appeared. I had the same setup there as I do in my current apartment, so I counted that as my “second location.” Eww, Are you recommending I try another?
    I don’t think I mentioned this in the original post, but my problem doesn’t happen at consistent time or time intervals. It happened about five minutes ago, but that was the first time it happened since I posted on the forum about 14 hours ago. Sometimes the adapter goes off twice in an hour, sometimes it can be several hours or days before it happens.
    I am using the grounded three prong cord that attaches to the white apple power block.
    If I were to get a new power adapter, I’m thinking the igo juice70 or igo everywhere85. If I were to get a UPS, I’m thinking the APC UPS BE550G or BE550R. Please comment if anyone knows any specifics about these products that probably won’t help my situation. Like I said originally, I am trying to avoid purchases unless I am pretty confident they will solve my problems. I will try to borrow a friend’s power adapter soon and see if that is less sensitive.
    Any additional comments or suggestions by anyone are always appreciated! Thanks!

  • Additional monitor and keyboard for IdeaPad U310

    Hi.
    I want a new laptop and I'm thinking of buying U310, but I have some questions.
    Now I have a desktop computer and a 23" monitor. I'd like to keep the monitor and wireless keyboard. Is it possible to connect them to U310 - I'd like to use external keyboard and 23" monitor while using U310 on my desk.
    I use similar combination at work, but I have ThinkPad and docking station.
    Is the combination of U310 and external keyboard & additional monitor possible?
    Thanx.

    Hi
    Welcome To Lenovo Community
    Yes you can use the  external monitor  and wireless mouse
    Hope This Helps

  • Syslinux with additional monitor and keyboard?

    Hi,
    is it possible to use an additional monitor (and keyboard) with syslinux?
    I have a Lenovo T500 laptop with a docking station attached to a second monitor and keyboard which are recognized after starting arch. As I'm using disk encryption, I have to type in the password under syslinux and it would be very nice if I could do it using the external keyboard and monitor.
    Best regards

    Thanks for the answer. Unfortunately, this did not work for me.
    Strangely, the external keyboard is working in the syslinux menu, but not after that when I have to type in the pass-phrase. Maybe it has something to do with my syslinux.cfg?

  • HOW CAN I HAVE TWO MONITORS ON R6870 HAWK?

    hi all ... i just bought a 6870 hawk card and have 2 monitors a wide 22" and a 4:3 19" with d-sub connections ... up to now i had them connected to an ati 4890 through d-sub to dvi adaptors no problems ..... and now as i understand it i cannot use the dvi connectors in my card to do that ... so i was wondering if yu have any solution to that .. in particular could i connect one monitor to the second dvi dual link and one to the mini display port ? ... and as it concernes the mini display port will the minidisplay port to dvi converter for mac work with the previously mentioned set up or do i have to get two converters ... and a last thing .... i was under the impression that this card supports eyfinity 6 ... thus six monitors at once ... how is that possible when the two dvi links dont work at the same time ? ....thank you all in advance for your responces ....

    ty for the link ... so if i understood corectly only these dongle will work ? ...will one dongle and one of the 2 dvi connections natively on the card work at the same time ? and if yes do you know which of the two ? .... ty again

  • Mimo Monitor via USB and additional monitor via mini-display?

    Hi,
    I currently have a 2009 MBP, with a second monitor I attach via the mini-display port. I'm thinking of adding a USB monitor like this one - http://www.mimomonitors.com/products/imo-pivot-touch
    Will the MBP/OS X support this additional screen?

    I think this question might best be addressed to the makers of the monitor. I imagine they must have tested it with MBPs, and perhaps also with additional monitors.
    Just out of curiosity, what do you plan to use the tiny monitor for? Its screen is even smaller than the 1984 128K Mac's, though its resolution is slightly higher.

  • Is it possible to attach 2 monitors or TVs on a MacbookAir?

    I've got a Matrox Dual Head 2 Go hooked up to double 24" monitors on my 13" MBA as we speak (over MiniDisplay Port). So it'll absolutely work. Thunderbolt will allow you to daisy chain devices over a single outbound wire, whereas with the Matrox setup you have a rather large box that interfaces between the displays and the machine. That's what is doing the heavy lifting and allows two (and even three) external monitors over a single MiniDisplay Port.
    Very glad to hear this.  Is this a Matrox Dual Head 2 Go DP Edition?  I have the Digital Edition (which has VGA in and DVIx2 out) and with my 2006 MBP, I was able to use the DVI-VGA adapter, and get two 19" external monitors at 1280x1024 each (total rez 2560x1024) to work just fine.
    I just upgraded to the new 13" MBA and got a MiniDisplay Port -> VGA adapter, hoping it would just work. But it doesn't.  The resolutions that are in the drop-down are for the most part all single-screen resolutions.  If I choose 2048x768, both screens fire up, but 1024x768 looks fairly horrible and I'd rather do just the single screen at 1280x1024.  But I sure am missing two screens right now
    Thank for your help.

  • Running 2 additional monitors?

    Hi there, running a new-ish 21.5" iMac. Already have one external monitor hooked up and running smoothly with the iMac display, wondering if there's any way I can hook a second one up at the same time. Maybe a pigtail splitter running from the display out? Dont want to spend money on hardware if I'm not sure I'll be able to use it.
    Thanks!

    There is no easy standard way of attaching a second monitor to your iMac.
    One option is usb to VGA or DVI adaptor which used DisplayPort technology, how ever from what i have ready you can't do anything graphic intensive like gaming on them.
    Second Option is Matrox DualHead2Go or TrippleHead2Go, which allows 2 or 3 additional monitors to be connected. However all the additional Monitors are detected as one, which in scenarios for me defeated the purpose.

  • Is it possible to have a multiple FPGA cRIO system?

    I am curios if it's possible to have a single cRIO chassis that can be expanded with additional FPGAs for computations. Meaning, I don't need more I/O but I do have algorithms taking up too much space and need a secondary FPGA to do some parallel processing. Data would be generated in the first FPGA and communicated to the second FPGA where additional processing takes place and then a response/command is sent back to the first FPGA to then be sent out through the I/O. 
    I saw something "similar" to this in PXI: http://zone.ni.com/reference/en-XX/help/372831C-01​/p2pstreamhelp/p2plv_topo_pipelinefpga/
    Althought this solution is dependent upon the PXIe bus it has the general feel for what I'd like. However, I need this in cRIO. Is there a solution that I've missed in my browsing of NI.COM?
    It would be OK if the solution consumes one of the cRIO chassis slots.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    A cRIO chassis only has 1 FPGA on it.  You may be able to get an expansion chassis and pass the data off to it in order to do the processing.  For what you are talking about, though, you would likely want to add some DIO so that you can directly communicate with the expansion chassis instead of going through the RT and Scan Engine.
    Alternatively, get a cRIO that has a bigger FPGA and/or get with your local NI representative to see if you can get some time with an NI systems engineer who can help you optimize your code to fit on a single FPGA.
    There are only two ways to tell somebody thanks: Kudos and Marked Solutions

  • Is it possible to have 2 lines with BT Infinity Un...

    As you will know, BT Infinity Unlimited broadband has a 100GB threshold, which when met will then throttle your speed to about 1Mb download which renders your internet all but useless except for the most basic tasks.
    I use around 150GB in down/upload each month due to watching movies online and live webcam sites like Justin.tv etc.
    What I want to know is, would it be possible to have 2 telephone lines at the same address with 2 lots of BT Infinity Unlimited broadband, thus giving me 100GB limit on each and 200GB in total.  I could use one line until nearing 100GB useage on one line, then switching to the other line for the rest.
    Is this possible and do BT allow it?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    the threshold is being increased
