PS docked to additional monitor not opening in main monitor

Do so hope someone can help.
I'm running CS5 on an ASUS laptop with Win7 (my desktop system had a motherboard failure) that is docked to a 23" monitor. For some reason, Illustrator and other parts of CS5 Design Standard seem to open just fine on the designated "main screen" but Photoshop does not. It may be that I had not actually *used* those other parts of CS5 on my laptop. Could PS have some some "I'm going to do it this way because I've always done it this way" setting that it won't let go of? I can't just drag it to my main screen (I can but it's uuuugly which defeats the purpose of using the giant monitor).
Thanks for any help you can offer.

I did try that but since this aspect of working in PS is new to me it's possible I did it incorrectly. Had a similar "glitch" today when I decided to alter my preferences to fit my previous settings on the old system. I thought my system was hung up when instead it was just a matter of the preferences dialog box hanging out on the laptop monitor. After realizing what was up, I changed the setting I wanted and closed the dialog box. Next time I opened it, it opened on the main screen. Go figure.
Well, one easy fix that is fine with me - I just set everything to run on the 23" monitor only rather than having both in use. I don't really need (that I know of) to be able to extend the monitors. I was trying to and thinking it might come in handy. Down the line I may find that it does but right now I'll stick with what works best for my way of working and limited neurotransmitter. In addition, by limiting my work area to the one monitor, my tablet area is used for the entire screen area of the larger monitor. Much easier for me keep track of the cursor.
Heck gettin' old.
Thanks much.

Images not opening on external monitors correctly

I having an issue with CC.
When electing in the preferences to not open image in Tabs. The images open with only about 25% of the image area showing. Forcing me to (command) 0 for full to screen preview or (command) +/- to see the image.
I am not talking about seeing the image at 100% resolution just the entire image within the floating window without having to command before view.
So to be clear when opening on the retina display it open with a full image preview. When opening on a second monitor either apple display with Thunderbolt or Eizo with HDMI it errors to this.
I have also tested this on a friends machine and his does not have the same probelm with identical set-up.
Any help would be apprecaited.

Thank you JJMack after your recommendation I looked into that. I need images to open according to my screen. It is most likely a bug in the software. I am not sure if it is photoshop or my current versions of Maverics on my mac. The script is limitied on what I can tell it to do. I have also tried re-installing software. Something is just off. Thanks for your idea. I didn't know that existed so helpful regardless if it solved my issue.

Hi Somnath,
when the error occurs check the url of the page that cannot be displayed and verify if the hostname is correct.
It could be a problem of not right setting in exchange profile.
Also verify that you have enough authorization, trying to logon with PISUPER user if you can.

CS5; Image always opens on last monitor used instead of main monitor

This problem is back. In CS4, when you opened an image it would always open on your main monitor regardless of which monitor you closed your last image. I have three monitors running and this is really annoying. CS4 was the only version I know of that didn't do this. I wish CS5 didn't do this. Dare I wish they would return to way it works in CS4?

Opening a new document on the last used monitor is as designed. When the behavior changed to always use the main monitor in CS4, we got a number of requests to return to the old behavior.
If you have a document open on your main monitor and your secondary monitor and then close the document on the secondary monitor, then a new document will open on the main monitor, so a possible (although not great) work around for you is to have a small "dummy" document open on the main monitor.

New window opens in main monitor when using dual screen

I am using dual screens and my "main screen" is on the left. Ever since Firefox updated to 32.0.1 on Monday I've been having this issue. Before the update, I would have my main Firefox window opened on the left and, when I click on a link to open a new window, it would open on the right screen. Now, it will only open on the left screen, where the other window is. If I drag the original window to the right monitor and open a link, the new window will open on the right monitor. But once I drag the original window back to the left, new links will open in the left again.
Before if I had this problem, I would simply drag the new window to the right monitor, then back to the left and close it. Then click the link again and it would open in the right. Kind of a work around I guess. But since the update, even this will not work. Any suggestions? Or is this a new function of the updated version? Is there a way for me to go back to the previous version? Any help is appreciated!

Hi hollytotheg,
I understand that links opening in new windows are opening in the active screen, not on the right, second monitor.
This may be helpful: [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/monitor-master/] the search recommends this.
However I would also recommend suggesting an enhancement in input about dual monitor new window restriction.

PDF file Not opening in Main Table

Hi,
I have added PDF lookup field in my main Table in console.
I m able to import PDF file in PDF table ( after making Allow Invalid PDFs as YES)
I have also imported PDF file in Main table field.
But here PDF file is not opening.
I m able to open PDF file only in PDF table & not in main table.
Also i am not able to Generate Thumbnail.
I m getting error:
Regenerating thumbnail for 'Mahi.pdf'...failed.
Regeneration of thumbnails complete.
Can anybody tell me what could be the problem?
Thanks,
Mahi

Hi Maheshwari,
I have added PDF lookup field in my main Table in console.
I m able to import PDF file in PDF table ( after making Allow Invalid PDFs as YES)
I have also imported PDF file in Main table field.
But here PDF file is not opening.
You can link the pdf to the Main tabel record by two ways:
1. Using Import Manager
2. Using Data Manager itself.
I have just tried it by the second way and I am able to open the Pdf in the Main Table itself.
PLease follow these step below:
1. Import the Pdf in the Pdf table and store the Pdf in the repository itself by choosing the Option - +Store in Repository+
2.Go to Main Table and double click on the Look up field on the right side. GO to the Data Group Tab and add the Data Group you have created.
3. Then choose the pdf you want to choose for that particular main table record. You will find the PDf getting attached in the Main Table Record.
4. Now try and open the Pdf, HopefullyYou will find it opening in the Main Table itself .
Hope it helps.
Thanks and Regards

Safari hangs/will not open in main account; works ok in guest account

Hi, Jmaque
Here is part of the opening of the seven page error report.
One log is not 7 pages long, though it may appear that way: )
The most recent report should be the one that is on the bottom of the Safari crash logs,.The most recent is the one we need to see.

Always opens in main monitor

Everytime I launch Firefox, it opens in the main monitor. Before updating to the latest version V.12, it was opening in the secondary monitor of my system.
I've tried to reduce and drag the windows and put it into the secondary monitor and rebooting and it always comes back to the main monitor.

I too have the same problem on OS 10.6.8. I downloaded Firefox 11.0 and that version opened correctly on the secondary monitor the very first time. It's interesting that it was able to recognize which screen to start on without even going through the steps to open, close and reopen on the desired monitor. Evidently, version 12 made the internal setting but chose to ignore it.
It sure would be nice to have an option in preferences something like:
* Open new windows on the same monitor as last used
* Always open new windows on primary monitor
* Always open new windows on secondary monitor (if available)
Update:
Drat! Did an update thinking it would take me to the highest version of FF 11 and it took me to 13. It also ignored which monitor windows should open on. Back to 11... [rolls eyes]

System Services Reporting is not opening from main SAP screen menu.

Hi Team,
I have upgraded kernel patch in all our three systems of DEV, QAS & PRD, from patch level 139 to 376 (Kernel 460_REL). After upgrade ll system are working fine.
Yet, System>Services>Reporting option is not opening from SAP Menu, even it is not giving any kind of error message too.
While the same screen is opening from X-code: SA38.
Kindly help !

Hi Bala,
If you go to transaction SE80 -> Repository Information System -> Other objects -> Transactions and you search for SOAMANAGER, you get into the screen where you can modify attributes for this transaction. Please check if there are strange values entered in there... Or maybe SAPGUI for HTML is not selected.
Kind regards,

Dock, Dashboard and Background Not Opening

Today I tried opening dashboard from the dock, dashboard refused to open, and the dock disappeared. I wasn't able to get either to work from Finder, so I restarted. After restarting, the background had gone from my set image to the default blue, even though my preferences still say it is set to my set image. The computer was NOT restarted in safe mode at this time. I have no idea of what is going on or how to fix it. Any help?

It may be a LaunchServices issue at any rate it can do no harm. Launch /Utilities/Terminal and copy & paste this at the command line:
Code:
<pre class="alt2" style="margin:0px; padding:3px; border:1px inset; width:640px; height:34px; overflow:auto">/System/Library/Frameworks/ApplicationServices.framework/\Frameworks/LaunchServi ces.framework/Support/lsregister \-kill -r -domain local -domain system -domain user</pre>
Then press return. After that, log out and back in or restart.
EDIT:
If that's not it, you may be able to repair this with 10.4.10 Combo Updater PPC
This is a fuller install, as opposed to an incremental "delta" update so it should overwrite any files that are damaged or missing. It does not matter if you have applied it before. It has worked well for many.
Remember to Verify Disk before update and repair permissions after update from /Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility.

Activity Monitor not opening???

So I've read all the topics and followed all the advice ie. -
-removed my activitymonitor.plist and restarted
-verified and repaired all my permissions
-login as a different user and tried it
to no avail my console still says: Activity Monitor[255] The tool is not setuid root - please repair the privileges
Are the priveleges different that the permissions? how/where do I repair them?
I also read something about receipts but couldn't find one for the activity monitor. I hope I don't need to reinstall osx as I've lost my original disks in a house fire
Any help is appreciated in advance...

That is odd, I attempted to copy my Activity Monitor.app to a diskimage but it complained that special permissions would be lost. I then zipped it without incident, uploaded it to a server, then downloaded it and it refused to open!
Maybe someone else can shed light on these happenings.
Oh, and yes, privileges are the same as permissions.

Captivate 5 not opening on my monitor (but shows running)

Captivte shows that it is running in the Task Manager, but it will not appear on my screen. I have uninstalled and reinstalled twice and having the same problem. I am not able to get it to appear or open.
Thoughts?

Hello,
Could you use ALT-TAB to see if it is not somewhere hiding, at least if you have different applications running at the same time?
Is CP upgraded to the latest version? If you use 5.0 latest is 5.0.2.630.

DVD not opening with main menu when loaded.

I created a DVD with three short movies and three slide shows. I've made several similar type DVDs and they all open with the main menu when loaded. But in this case, when loaded in the player, it opens with the first movie, not the main menu.
Any advice would be appreciated.

Open Map View within iDvd. Is there a movie in the top / first box? If so, select it (one click) and hit the delete key. Now preview your iDvd. If it plays as expected (including the menu and buttons) then proceed with encoding and burning it to Verbatim dvd-r.

Working on external monitor, dragging files glitches main monitor

After installing 10.10 on my MBP 17" 2009 most things work all right. I have an 23" Apple HD attached. Every time I drag a file in finder the laptop screen glitches completely. It gets all garbled up. Also the menubar. Doesn't show on screenshot.

Howdy Paul Kana,
It sounds like your display is exhibiting some unexpected behaviour after updating to Mac OS X 10.10. I would use the troubleshooting from the following article to help resolve the issue:
Apple computers: Troubleshooting issues with video on internal or external displays
Try unplugging the video adapter or cable and then plug it back in.
If more than one video adapter is in use (or "daisy-chained"), troubleshoot by using only one adapter.
Example: A mini DisplayPort to DVI adapter connected to a DVI to HDMI adapter is an unsupported configuration because there is a series of adapters in use.
If available, try using a different display and or adapter (or use a different connector by using DVI instead of VGA, for instance).
Reset the system
You can reset the Mac's parameter RAM and SMC.
Reset the resolution
Start by resetting the Mac's parameter RAM. If the display does not come up, was previously set to an unsupported resolution, and still results in no video:
Start up in Safe Mode.
From the Apple () menu, choose System Preferences.
Choose Displays from the View menu to open the preferences pane.
Select any resolution and refresh rate that your display supports.
Restart your computer.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Take care,
Sterling
