NX6200TC primary display set as TV

I have a NX6200TC connected to a (PAL) TV and Philips 17" monitor. From time to time I neglect to switch on my Philips monitor before powering on my Windows XP PC. The system them sets the primary monitor as the TV and does not detect the Philips.
To reset this back is not easy as restarting the PC does not help. The current display drivers are Version 8.4.2.1
Does anyone have a easy way to reset the display setting so the the primary monitor is again the Philips or are there any other solutions to this problem?

Hi Richard
I have installed version 9.1.3.1 of the the ForceWare Drivers. I now have a new problem.
When Playing a video to my Pal/I Standard TV, overlay set to Full screen on the TV, the picture on the TV appears like a letterbox. Normal viewing of the of information on the computer screen is mirrored to the TV correctly.
Do you have any idea how to resolve this?

HP p6-2120 BIOS will not give me option to change "primary display adapter" for new GEFORCE GT 610

I am trying to change the primary display setting to "PCI Express Graphics", but the setup bios does not give me that option, how can I make that change?

Futuros, welcome to the forum.
When you install a discrete video card the integrated video should be automatically disabled. This will allow for the discrete card to be recognized. Are you having problems with the card not being recognized?

How can I setup my thunderbold display to work as my primary display? I would like to have my macbook pro 2011 as my second display. thanks

I have and Macbook pro 2011 february. I have installed Lion with the lastest update. I would like to use my thunderbold display as my primary display. The same way when I close my MB Pro 2011, but I wish to use my Macbook pro display as my secondary display.

If your Mac has got Mini DisplayPort, purchase a Mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapter and a HDMI cable. You won't have to change any setting, and image will show on your TV after connecting it to your MacBook Pro. See > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4241?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US

Default resolution for a MacBook external primary display.

I had gone through the process of waking may MacBook with the lid closed to make my wide screen TV the primary display. I changed the resolution to 1600x900 from 1920x1080 which my TV does not support. Leopard did not revert to the previous setting when I did nothing. Now whenever I connect the TV as the primary display Leopard thinks all is well and my TV goes black and i can't see what is going on. Is there any way to reset Leopard default setting in this mode for the TV?
My attempt to try out different resolutions has gone horribly bad.
Help please.

With the Macbook 13", turn the resolution as high as it can go, millions of colors, refresh rate n/a. This was the default with my machine, and it's working fine.

Automatically move all windows to external primary display?

I'm using an external display as the primary display (the one with the menu bar) of my MacBook when in the office.
With Tiger, when I would plug in the external display, all of the windows on the MacBook's internal display would jump to the external display, i.e. remain on the primary display all the time.
But now with Leopard they no longer move and I must tediously move sometimes dozens of them manually.
Is there some hidden preference I can set to change this behavior back to the Tiger way? Or some hack to achieve the sma effect?
Thanks!

I get the opposite effect in Leopard on my iMac. When I turn off mirroring, all windows jump to the external screen, which is what I don't want to happen. If I then open an application, such e.g. Safari, it shows on the internal screen. But when I then switch mirroring on and then mirroring off again, recently open windows windows jump to external screen too. I would at least like to know whether this is by design or a bug.The builtin screen is my main screen (with menubar).
Thanks/Mikael

ARD 3.2 - screen share primary display only?

Greetings.
Please forgive me if this has already been addressed. (I searched, but found no matches)
My ARD admin machine is a dual monitor setup. I've noticed when I share the admin screen with the target clients, the clients display both the admin's screens (primary and secondary). Is there a way to share only the admin's primary display?
Thanks so much,
Matt

I should add, that switching the secondary display to "mirror" the primary, got the desired results on the client machine displays.
However, I was hoping to be able to only show the primary display, when the displays are actually set to primary, and secondary, and not mirrored.
Thanks again,
Matt

HP p6210f BIOS will not give me option to change "primary display adapter" for new geforce gt620

HP Pavilion p6210f NY544AA#ABA
Windows 7 64-bit
Changes: Upgraded to 430 watt
In order to upgrade my pc performance I purchased a PNY GeForce GT 620 with 1GB GDDR3. Following the instructions for pc's with onboard graphic I wanted to change the "primary display adapter" in the BIOS to PCI-e. I checked the HP website to find out where this setting is located in the BIOS. I found out that my BIOS does not even show this setting in contradiction to the image on the HP website. I installed the drivers anyway and restarted the pc hoping it would recognise the card automatically which it didn't. The card is supplied with power since it gets warm and the fan spins but the monitor only works on the onboard video-out.
Question: How can i get the pc to run with the new card? Do i have to upgrade the BIOS? (Momentary Bios is 5.7)

Here are the specs for your HP Pavilion p6-2327c Desktop Computer. According to the specs, this model shipped from the factory with Windows 8 installed. You will need to remove the graphics card, DISABLE "Secure Boot" and ENABLE "Legacy Support" in the BIOS, then reinstall the new graphics cards. Please see Computer Does not Start After Installing a Video Card (Windows 8) for more information about your issue.
If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

IMac is running two primary displays

I am currently using Air Display for mac. My iPad is serving as the second display. However, when I turn on mirror display, it switches the screens of my iPad with my iMac, so that the computer shows the screen in the resolution which I'm assuming is that of my iPad. Its very pixellated and diffcult to read anything. I went to display under system preferences to fix the problem, but both blue screens have the white dock bar above them. It seems to be that both have been set as the primary display, but my iMac is showing my iPad's normal screen instead. How would I fix this? Also, why is there a dock bar above both of the diplays? They aren't side by side as I had seen in other places, but stacked on top of eachother.
Thanks for your help,
Karen

OK, well I would go with what Apple says in writing but if you want to take a trip to visit the Genius Bar that won't hurt.
Good luck, I'm 99% certain you will find I was correct but please let us know.

Using a second monitor as the primary display with MiniDisplayPort

I've got a new iMac, but the screen seems to be straining my eyes. I'm trying things like scaling the display, lowering brightness, changing desktop layout, etc, but if all else fails...I'd like to go back to my old external monitor.
So, my question is...if I connected this monitor to the MiniDisplayPort on the iMac, could I use it as a single primary display, or would I have to use it as mirrored or secondary?

Hi Brian,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. You can mirror the displays or make whichever display you want the primary in Extended Desktop mode. See this article for details:
How to use multiple displays with your Mac
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5019
The white bar at the top of the left blue box represents the menu bar and determines which display is your primary display. To change your primary display, click the white bar and drag and drop it on the blue box representing the display you would prefer to be your primary display.

API error when trying to create a display set

Hello,
I'm creating a mapping, and I'm trying to define an attribute display set in the target table to show only some of the attributes of the table. I have called it 'SHORT_LIST' and I have also selected the attributes I want to display, but when I press OK, the followig error message is shown: "API0411: Name should not be an empty string", but I do fill the display set name!
What is happening?
Cheers,
Natividad Moreno.

Hi,
Not sure what is happening here. What version are you running? This seems like a bug though so I suggest logging an iTar wiht support.

Macbook Pro No Longer Recognizes Primary Display After Boot Camp/Linux Installation

Hey All,
So my old 15" early 2006 Macbook Pro (1,1) no loger recognizes the primary display. I can use an external monitor just fine, but when I go into System Profiler, it's like my primary display disappeared. I reinstalled Snow Leopard, reset PRAM, NVRAM, repaired my permissions, tried to update my mac, but litterally nothing I have tried has worked.
It started when I tried to install both Windows 7 and Ubuntu. After completing the Windows 7 installation, I restarted my computer and it just hung on the Apple logo. I could feel the fans begining to spin really fast and it felt like my laptop was on fire. I restarted my computer, let it cool down, and it hung at the Apple logo again. I rebooted it a final time, and nothing. Black screen. No backlight or image...nothing.
Is this a hardware or software issue? Did a software issue cause my screen to overheat and just die?

Hi,
it seems we are both suffering from the same problem. I described mine in https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4299194
Did you get your problem solved? If so, can you tell me how?
Thank you in advance!

Reader 10.1 issues - with 150% Display setting

I've waited a long time for the latest version of Reader (10.1.0.534) which came out yesterday. I keenly updated to it today and went testing (with my fingers crossed), only to find that it still doesn't fix the issues I'm encountering with my PCs Display set to 150% (Win 7 SP1 x64) - all the issues are all still there.
Firstly - when using under the latest IE9 I've noticed the following:
The top toolbar won't work and clicking on any button has no effect
The bottom (floating) toolbar is similarly ineffective
Somehow after I found 2 above, I've managed to loose the bottom floating toolbar altogether (and alt-F8 or F8 wont bring it back - not that its vital)
Right Clicking on the screen brings up an option panel away from the mouse
When used as a standalone app (again at 150% Display setting in Win 7) I've noticed:
The illumination of the Close, Maximise and Minimise buttons when the mouse is rolled over them is irregular and if the mouse becomes stationary on any of those buttons, the illumination goes.
Setting Display to 100% (or even 125% from provisional testing) seems to elliminate these bugs but is Adobe going to buy me some binoculars so I can see the tiny buttons and fonts on my HTPC screen from 6' away...
In this day and age of Windows coming with a perfectly capable Media Centre interface, many users of HTPCs have them set up with high resolution monitors (or TVs as the monitor) and leaving the display set to 100% is no good for regular PC functions (such as web browsing or pdf reading).
Please fix this Adobe. I've already applied to be a pre-release tester (and my application hasn't been picked up/followed up). I just feel I'm getting my moneys worth out of this product!

Hi..
Try removing a plugin...
Quit Safari.
Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type this exactly as you see it here:
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins
Move the Adobe PDF Browser plugin (or just PDF Browser plugin) from the Internet Plug-Ins folder to the Trash.
Relaunch Safari to test.

Primary display keeps changing

I have a Mac Pro running 10.6.8 with 2 identical monitors. Each time I reboot the primary display changes. Tried resetting the primary display in screen prefs but each time I reboot the primary display shifts to the other monitor.
Any suggestions how to fix?

One of my questions was what happeens if you physically switch the monitor connections to the vido card?
Click Detect Displays too in the Displays system preferences.
Try an smc and pram reset just for the heck ot it too.
Another thing to try is to boot in safe mode and then reboot normally.
