Yes, it is possible.
Connect the VGA and the HDMI monitor to the related connectors. Now you can use the key combination FN + F5 to activate both monitors.
Choose "HDMI + CRT Extended Desktop". The internal display will turn of.
Note: All three displays (two external and the internal one) can not be activated simultaneously.

HDMI And VGA Only Works On Specific Display

Desktop Model: HP Pavilion h8-1070t
OS: Win7 64-bit
Graph: GT 530
1. Samsung 20'' Monitor
2. Dynex 19'' TV
3. Sharp 40'' TV
This is a weired problem. This desktop have one DVI and one HDMI and used to work fine on any monitor or TV.
Now the DVI port (via VGA adaptor. forgive me I don't have a DVI cable) only works on the Samsung Monitor and the HDMI port only works on the Dynex TV.
I tried multiple cables and even use another mac to test the whether the monitors and TVs are working fine. Turns out the all the cables and display devices are good.
I also tried multiple effort in things like reinstalling the driver, disable/enable the graphic card and stuffs like that.
Now still the HDMI only works with te Dynex TV, not the Samsung nor the Shart TV.
While the DVI (via VGA adaptor) only works on the Samsung. The DVI (via VGA adaptor) port can work on the Dynex too only before you get into windows.
I guess this is some kind of software issue cause both the ports can still work under some condition. But I am kind of confused.
Anyone have any idea or experience on this? Andy guess or solution?
Thanks

Are the HDMI cables 2.0? The Sharp and Samsung may only accept HDMI 2.0. You said you tested them using a Mac, but Mac computers don't have HDMI ports, so their is no direct hdmi-to-hdmi.

Skype is downloaded but cannot get speaker and camera to work

skype is downloaded to new iPad but speaker and camera not working

It works for me using normal Swing so the bug is in the ACM classes.
GraphicsProgram -> JPanel and add main method
GLabel -> JLabel and setString to setText
run -> as constructor and use the default flow layout instead of the 50, 50 size
Cleanup (not needed to fix):
Derive font instead of new.
Removed unused MouseListener.
Moved MouseMotionListener to anonymous adapter.
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.*;
public class TestMouseMotion extends JPanel {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        EventQueue.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
            public void run() {
                JFrame frame = new JFrame("Test");
                frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.DISPOSE_ON_CLOSE);
                frame.getContentPane().add(new TestMouseMotion());
                frame.pack();
                frame.setLocationRelativeTo(null);
                frame.setVisible(true);
    public TestMouseMotion() {
        final JLabel label = new JLabel("This gets overwritten once mouse moves");
        label.setFont(label.getFont().deriveFont(Font.BOLD, 36));
        add(label);
        addMouseMotionListener(new MouseInputAdapter() {
            @Override
            public void mouseMoved(MouseEvent e) {
                label.setText("Mouse: (" + e.getX() + ", " + e.getY() + ")");
}

Cannot get log and capture to work

I have a JVC HD-GR1 camera and I am trying to log and capture my video using the 4 pin-9 pin firewire cable. It states that it is not recognizing the JVC camera. So I tried it in iMovie, it recognized the JVC camera but it was just a blue screen with a time code. What really confused me is that the computer will controll the camera (in iMovie) rewinding, fastforwarding and playing the video on the JVC Camera, but on the iMac it is still a blue screen on the log and capture video. Any ideas?

Mac Mini (Late 2014) 2 display HDMI and VGA

Hi,
I got my new mac mini and i have 2 display. One is with HDMI, other is VGA.
I will use normal HDMI port and thunderbolt port with Mini DisplayPort to VGA adapter from Apple to use them both, and i want to "Extend" my screen but the Apple guy on the store told me that "you only can duplicate the screen, can not extend it; both your HDMI and VGA monitors screen the same thing."
Is it correct? Because i think he is not sure about what he said it doesn't make sense to me.
Regards.

I have no idea where what person is getting his information. I have used yur arrangement on my 2012 Mini which has one HDMI and one Thunderbolt port.
You sense is better than that person's. You you can have extended display with HDMI and VGA via mini displayport (plugs into Thunderbolt port) to VGA adopter

Toshiba 42WL67Z - no icture through hdmi and vga

Hi,
Following a power outage, my 42WL67Z (Regza LCD) no longer shows any picture thru hdmi and vga.
The computer gets a signal from the tv, it detects the screen when it's connected and offers the usual options (duplicate/extend display, screen resolution), but no picture is displayed.
The OSD works well.
Ideas?

>Ideas?
I think you should firstly connect another device (DVD player, bluray player, etc) to the TV and should choose the right input channel in the settings.
If the TV would still not receive any signal from such device, then this means that you have an hardware problem.

Can't switch between HDMI and VGA displays

I have a new H430, with hdmi and vga ports. My HP zr2240w monitor permits switching between AVG and HDMI displays, which I would like to do. But when I plug in both cables (HDMI and VGA) only VGA will work. If I switch to HDMI or make it the default display, the screen freezes at the desktop background: no mouse, no taskbar etc. Is is possible that the D430 video card will not support switching between displays (on a single monitor)
thanks,

Dear Monika and Mylenium: I figured out part of the problem, but not the solution: The shape I had drawn -and coudn't switch between fil and stroke on-is one I had already done a gradient mesh on, too. I had later abandoned the gradient mesh by using the option key to delete mesh lines, but that didn't take the shape all the way back to its original flat state. So it wasn't a plain drawn shape any more. So how do I release the gradient mesh to get back to a flat shape? I'm also having trouble keeping the shapes in RGB or CMYK mode-they keep defaulting back to greyscale. Could that also be a symptom of using gradient mesh? Note: I'm using gradient mesh for the very first time now; I've never used it before. It seems to leave a lot of unexpected baggage behind. I would send a screen shot, but if I start up Grab or Voila, all the AI pallets go away, and that's half the information. So how do I control gradient mesh?

AppleTV is not a display, it plays media to an HDMI equipped TV.

You still produce displayport adapters with HDMI and VGA (together)?
