ITUNES AND EXTENDED DESKTOP

O guess I can't post a pic as a reference here or attach the thing.
Ok, I run two 17 inchers down deep and it's 2560x1024 display. Safari takes the extended desktop to timbuktu. iTunes doesn't like to span the entire display. Do people who have HD 30" displays only see like itunes take up 1% of their display area? I'm going to suggest to Apple they allow itunes to resize window freedom for all mankind! Should I use the osx feedback?
Cherrs!

well i looked into other media players. no luck. cddb access and altivec importing aiff are nice, i solved this problem by permanently erasing the want in my mind for full screen support, wait what did i just say i don't remember oh i noticed on apple insider that apple is specing a new display interconnect hd interface called udf or something like that. I'm waiting for HD DVD to come out before I buy antother computer or display so I can go hddvd with that technology at that time. I guess at that time I'll drop the money for a 30 in hd display or whatever size they have then. when will lep's or led displays come out to price me nice? epson pringing lcds sounds cool, ok i'm done, hd dvd come soon so I can see all itunes column access thingy last thing hd runs like mud on a 400 mhz g4 (sawtooth) so just for kicks I'll menntion that when hd comes along you'll need a faster cpu to kick the bits, hd dvd for eva peron

  • Mirror and Extended Desktop - Panasonic 42" 720 image cropped

    I have my 15.4 macbook pro connected to a Panasonic 42" 720 HDTV via the mini displayport. In both mirror and extended desktop mode, the Panasonic image is cropped off on all four sides. I fooled around with all the resolution settings and nothing changes.
    No matter what I do, the menu bar and dock get cropped off by a few pixels. How can I fix this?
    thanks

    Right, your TV is overscanning. That's very common. Overscan has been part of what TVs have done for decades.
    If your TV is meant to be compatible with computer output, there should be a way to set the screen size using the TV's remote and/or menu system so that computer output just fills the screen. So check you TV's user manual about making a connection to a PC for information about how to get rid of overscan on the TV.

  • Video switch and extended desktop

    Is it possible to use a video switch for my G4 and G5 with the display it controls being the only monitor for the G4 and the extended desktop for the G5?
    Mac OS X (10.4.5)

    There is really no dependencie on whether the image being sent through the switch is the primary desktop or the extended desktop. The switch will have no awareness of this. What's going to matter is if you find a video switch compatible with your interfaces and monitor. Are they DVI?

  • Full screen applictions and extended desktop

    I just got my 20" iMac and have connected a 19" LCD to it in extended desktop. My only problem is that when i run a full screen application (like WoW or Front Row) the second monitor shuts off. I don't want this to happen, I want it to stay on and still be able to move the mouse over to it and use the programs that i have opened on it. does anyone know of a way to make this happen?
    Thank you!

    well i found out that the next patch will fix the problem in WoW, but that still leaves front row... is there some patch or hack for front row to add dual monitor support?

  • USB 2 and Extended desktop

    Hello there. Pay no attention the computer listed on this post. This post concerns a Powermac G4 Dual 1.25 and not the iMac g5. Does the Powermac g4 dual 1.25 support USB 2.0? Does it also support extended desktop? Thanks for any info.

    It supports Extended desktop as long as it has a dual head graphics card, and you can attach two displays. All MDDs have, I believe, although it would probably have one DVI and one ADC connector. Depending on what display you have, you might need one or two adapters.
    As previously stated, getting USB 2.0 connectivity on the MDD requires a USB 2.0 PCI card to be installed. There is no on-board USB 2.0 on any powermac G4.
    There are several third party USB card. Make sure the one you get is OS X compatible.
    Note, that if you have a USB 2.0 peripheral (such as a printer, or a digital camera) you can still attach it and use it on you USB 1.1 bus, although it will only run at 11 Mbps, however your computer will accept it.

  • Zoom and extended desktop

    I can't be the first person to notice this, but all my searching hasn't turned anything up...
    Evidently, when one uses the Universal Access 'zoom' function with a computer with multiple monitors set to extended desktop mode, it doesn't work. The zoom centers on the point at the middle of the extended desktop, and evidently, the software thinks the desktop is only as big as one of the monitors, because you can't move the pointers to the top or bottom of the entire extended desktop.
    This is on a 1.67 GHz PB running Mac OS X 10.4.7, with a 19" LCD attached in extended-desktop mode. The 19" has the menu bar.
    Any help much appreciated,
    Vic
    1.67 GHz Powerbook   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

    I use the "zoom" feature as well. I would LOVE to be able to use the feature on my display while giving a presentation in "normal" view without the zoom feature turned on. To date, I have not found a way to make this happen. Any tips?

  • G4 iBook and extended desktop

    I am using my G4 iBook to connect to a projector for presentations and have noticed that MS PowerPoint 2004 allows projecting of the current slide whilst I can see next and previous slides on my iBook screen. However in order to do this I have to switch off monitor mirroring. However in order to do this I need extended desktop, which it would appear that my G4 iBook does not have!!! Is there any way of getting an extended desktop on my iBook in order to use this functionality?

    On an iBook, you can't.
    One of the things Apple does to distinguish the 'consumer' line (iBooks and iMacs) from the 'professional' line (PowerBooks and PowerMacs) is that it prevents dual displays on the consumer line. We know from the video chips that Apple uses, that they are capable of dual display.
    There does exist a hack that undoes the lockout that Apple wrote into the consumer line, but Apple is very clear that installing that hack will void your warranty and possibly damage the computer. This damage is (from what I have been able to glean) from overheating, especially from users that close their laptops while using an external monitor, as venting heat through the topcase is part of the design.

  • Airplay, ATV and Extended Desktop

    I for one really like this feature, but there still are some bumps. For example, When I move a Safari window to the ATV display, start a video, and then try to go full screen, many times it goes full screen on the computer display. I think that this is a behavior that will improve with future iterations of Mavericks, but it is kind of annoying now. Any thoughts on how to make this behavior more consistent (i.e., keep the airplay displays consistent and keep the apps running in these window on these windows)?

  • IPod nano (version 1.3.1) won't appear in iTunes or on desktop

    Hi everyone. I have had my iPod Nano for about a year, and I've never had any problems until a few days ago, when, for a few hours, my Mac Mini basically seemed to stop recognizing that there was an iPod attached to it. I've tried other USB devices which have all worked fine. My computer at work has no trouble with the iPod (and I used the same cable with both computers).
    The problem went away on its own that same night, but now it's back.
    The strangest part of the whole thing is that sometimes when I attach the iPod to the computer now (since the problem re-surfaced), it will start charging. So, the iPod seems to know that the computer is there, and seems to be able to charge from that, but the iPod still doesn't show up in iTunes or on the desktop.
    I've already tried the "Rs" solutions that Mac Help suggests first. None of them solved anything. Any help would be very much appreciated, because I miss podcasts!

  • Ipod Nano 4th or 5th generation won't recognize Itunes and shows loading constantly when I am on Nike plus

    My Ipod Nano all of a sudden won't show up on my Imac computer nor will it show up in Itunes.  I use it for running and I use the Nike + software, at the same time the recognition problem occurred when I click on the Nike + on my Ipod Nano it shows the circle and says "Loading".
    Also when I plug it in to the computer it says Connected do not unplug unless you eject, however there is no icon on my Imac to eject.
    Even when I reboot the Ipod Nano, the same thing happens...the Nike + just says loading and it doesn't get recognized by my Imac.
    Help what do I do????? I have tried rebooting several times, as well as using another mac and no luck. I even sent an email to Apple but so far no answer.  Any clue how to fix this?
    I think it has something to do with the Nike+ application, but don't know what to do.
    Thanks!

  • IMac G5 intel core duo extended desktop?

    I never really got a clear answer on this by searching google. Can I add another monitor to my iMac and make it extended desktop without adding any programs?

    Hi FRD714
    Yes, all you need is the correct Mini-DVI adapter and cable and you can connect up and use just about any display, projector or TV. The following Apple article will help you to determine which adapter you need and briefly explains the Mirrored and Extended Desktop features.

    Hello adifromba
    Try putting your iPod Classic into Disk Mode to force a restore within iTunes to get it to show up. The steps to do that are within the first article below, I have also provided a second article for further troubleshooting if it continues to not show up.
