Quick way to change "Optimize for" setting when "mirror displays" is on?

Is there a quick way to change "Optimize for" setting when "mirror displays" is on?
I have two displays on my Mac Mini for totally different areas; I can't see the first monitor when I'm on the second. One is 1280x1024, one is 1920x1200. As I switch fairly often I'm wondering if there is a built-in or 3rd-party-utility way to quickly toggle the "optimize for" setting that is under "System Preferences" -> "Displays" -> "Display" tab -> "Optimize for:" dropdown box.
As Apple sadly doesn't make a all-in-one keyboard / mouse - need one as one of the monitors is used for just a very comfy chair, so keyboard is on my lap - I'm using an Lenovo ThinkPad USB Travel Keyboard, model SK-8855, and some key cobinations, esp. with function keys, seem not to work on it. So something from the desktop context menu or that allows you to set the hotkey would be preferable.
Thanks for any help,
-DJBC

I'm thinking that, Display Menu from the Mac App Store will help.

    Setting Lightroom's preview size to larger than screen resolution is guaranteed to slow things down. I have a dual monitor system whith Lightroom showing the loupe on one screen and the grid on the other. The screen sizes are 1920x1080 and 2560x1440. Following your practice for previews would bring my system to a crawl and I have an entry level workstation.All my previews are of standard 1024x768 in size. The only delays in viewing come when Lightroom is asked to display an image where there is no preview. Once the preview has been created, browsing is near instantaneous.
    I beg to differ! The reason is that a preview can be used for any size, which is smaller than that of the preview. Scaling down a preview can be done with little or not loss in quality compared to getting the full resulution and scale that down. Scaling up is not possible.
    In your case, you will not use the previews of 1024x768 at all for full screen display. Instead you will force L3 to create bigger previews the first time you open the photo. You could try this by generating the standard previews for new imported photos before you start browsing. Then try to browse. You will probably get the "Loading" message, which indicates that the preview was not used and another one with higher resolution will be made. Then try the same experiment, setting the size of the standard preview to 2048. If, and only if, the size of your display area is not more than 2048 pixels wide and you display a photo in lanscape orientation, you will be able to browse without delay after generating the standard previews.
    If I understand your setup correctly, you display the photos in a window of 2560x1440 pixels. I suspect that only 1:1 previews could be used for that. I think Adobe should increase the maximum size of the previews to a value larger than 2048, so that you are not forced to use only the 1:1 previews.
    I agree, that when the previews have been generated, browsing is near instantaneous.

  • Is there a way to Change the Writing Speed When Burning CD-R's?

    Is there a way to change the writing speed when burning CD-R's?
    I don't see any options in Disk Utility.
    Rob
    P.S. Since I am burning coasters lately with the Pioneer DVR-111D, I though that I might solve the problem by using a lower write speed.

    I dn't believe so with Disk Utility although you can with Roxio Toast Titanium. I would try another media brand, like Verbatim, as a first step and see if the coaster problem goes away.

    Hi Gurprit,
    when you are maintaining the field catalog you can maintain the order by populating the value as 1,2,... into col_pos filed.

  • Looking for quicker way to change duration of file

    Hello!
    I work in a broadcast environment and we have just upgraded to Audition from CoolEdit. It was a much needed change and is much better, but there is one problem. When we are doing production, we are getting ads that come out to 29.2 or 28.3 seconds, etc. We need to be able to compress and expand our recordings. CoolEdit was able to shave seconds off within seconds, even with our longer programs that are running 3 minutes. Audition took 15 minutes this morning to take off two extra seconds. Is there a quicker way to do this?
    Thanks!

    The Stretch effect offers two different stretching algorithms:  the default, based upon iZotope Radius and the legacy Audition algorithm.  The iZotope algorithm is extremely high-quality and accurate, but requires a lot of processing and can be slow.  The Audition algorithm is significantly faster, but you may hear artifacts beyond certain stretch percentages.
    I'd recommend taking some of the content you've stretched using the iZotope algorithm, replicate it with the Audition algorithm, and preview to see if you notice a difference.  If not, then you could consider using the Audition as the default for future projects which have a quick turn-around time.

  • How do I change the dpi setting when I am saving for the web?

    I need to chnge the dpi setting from the default of 72 to 300 when saving for the web.  How do I do that?

    You go by pixel dimensions for the web because that's all that computer screens use.
    dpi or rather ppi is a print specification.
    In this example, Image > Image Size    I have unchecked resampling and set the ppi to 300. You can see how small it's going to print on paper as opposed to maybe 100 ppi.  It will still retain the same pixel dimensions.
    You basically focus on a good pixel size for the the browser display.

  • Is there a way to change settings for "date modified" to reflect true file changes instead of changing upon viewing files? This is not just a Word issue.

    My team and I open and view files all the time without editing them but the date modified changes anyway. This gets especially troublesome when we are working on files on each others desktops remotely. Is there any way to change these settings to reflect only changes instead of views, moves, and the like? I've read similar posts that have all reference Microsoft products but that is not the case. Our systems here operate in this way regardless of application/file type.

    This discussion is going on in another thread where there has been more responses, one fix and a work-around noted. Please go here to read them: https://discussions.apple.com/message/18157324?ac_cid=142432#18157324

  • Quick way of changing duration of multiple still images.

    Hello
    I'm putting together a slideshow of 76 images. In the browser they have defaulted to 10 sec duration and I need to get it down to 2. Is there a way of changing them all in one go or do I need to go through and change each one individually?
    Many Thanks

    BTW, You can change the duration of the stills directly in the timeline
    by selecting them, right clicking and changing the duration field to desired length.

  • How to create change pointers for IT6 when custom table Z777A changes?

    Situation: We are using custom table Z777A (copied T777A and added fields) to store building locations. Employee's IT6 subtype 92 retrieves valid work address building locations from table Z777A.
    Problem: Whenever there are updates to Z777A, we need to find all IT6 subtype 92 records that use the changed building location from Z777A and create IDOC's The change pointer entry will need to be for the IT6 subtype 92 row that is affected.
    Question: Can anyone give me specific details as to how this can be accomplished? Thanks.

  • No Video When 'Mirror Displays' Checked

    I have a macbook pro with 10.5.7. I connected an acer 22" lcd. OSX extends my desktop and the monitor works perfectly fine.
    When I check 'mirror displays', I completely lose video on both monitors. I have to pull the plug on the acer to make video come back on my macbook pro. When I reconnect, I lose video every time now.
    How can I somehow uncheck 'mirror displays' without the other monitor connected so that when I do connect it, it at least extends my desktop again? The option and tab is gone unless a second display is connected. however, if i connect it, i lose video and cant get to it to uncheck! is the a plist or something I can edit?

  • Is there a way to change the timeout setting for iCal / Calendar in 10.8?

    I have a user connected via iCal to an overworked old CalDAV server (running OS X Server 10.5.8) who was doing fine in OS X 10.6.8. The data (from a number of groups, and his own individual calendar) would sometimes take a while to refresh, but it always came down eventually.
    Once he upgraded to 10.8.1, his calendars would often have exclamation points next to them saying they couldn't connect. Manually refreshing would add "Updating..." to the title of the calendar window, but most of the time, the exclamation points would come back. I did some testing with LittleSnitch, and found that, if Calendar didn't hear back from the server for 30 seconds, it would time out.
    Using the same CalDAV account on another machine with iCal in 10.6.8, connecting to the same server, it goes past 30 seconds and keeps going. (Maybe the default setting is 60 seconds; I haven't seen it triggered.)
    Does anyone know if there's a way to tell Calendar in 10.8.1 to wait a little longer before timing out?

    It appears that the previous user purchased the Server app through his or her own App Store account. You would need to know that account ID and password to update that or any other app purchased through that account. If you are unable to get that account information, you will have to delete the app from your system and re-purchase it through an App Store account you can use. There is no way to transfer an app from one App Store account to another.

  • When i attempt to log on to my college site i keep getting The connection has timed out. Is there a way of changing the time setting , to fix this?

    This message "The connection has timed out" only happens when i attempt to log on to my blackboard account for college. All other log in' work fine.

    Thanks.  So there's no means of knowing whether a text message has been delivered, not to mention time of delivery.  Perhaps I've gone for the wrong phone.  It might do a lot but seems to miss out on some basics.

  • Is there no way to change the default setting for the save as directory

    I been searching but running into a dead end, no answer.
    Thx
    Russ

    Will someone, preferably from Adobe, PLEASE give a straight answer to this question. It is such an easy question and the answers seem to be bending over backwards to avoid it.
    The question is: What must a Reader user do to change the directory to which Reader, by default, points when instructed to save a file?
    The current default is the Windows "My Documents" directory. The goal is any directory of the user's choice.
    The question does not ask how to modify or attach add-ons to Windows. It is not how to add icons to Windows save dialogs. It is simply how to adjust Reader to specify a different default save-to directory. Maybe it's a line in an INI file or other configuration file. Maybe it's a registry key. But it must be something, because Reader somehow knows how to point to "My Documents." How may the user change it?
    Thank you.
