Touchscreen display monitor toggling

Hi All,
Bought an acer touchscreen monitor and hooked it up to my iMac. Its on extended display mode and when I touch the screen on the display It starts to control the mouse if its on the iMac's display. Is it possible to make the mouse jump to the other display when I touch to move it?
Thanks.
Olly.

Hi
In my knowledge such function is supported by several graphic cards.
You dont write anything about your notebook. Its not very helpfully
Anyway, I think you can change the screen position it in the graphic card properties.
Check the advanced options.
PS: I think you have accidentally enabled this option. As far as I can remember the on the Nvidia graphic cards you can use the key combination to change this rotation option:
Ctrl + Shift + R

  • I have an Apple Powerbook G4, and my monitor doesn't function. I have an external display Monitor, however it's stuck in extended screen mode. How do I get it to mirror or duplicate the display without use of the on-board?

    As i had said, I have an Apple Powerbook G4, and my monitor doesn't function. I have an external display Monitor, however it's stuck in extended screen mode. How do I get it to mirror or duplicate the display without use of the on-board? Is there a Fn key combo i'm missing or is the issue more serious then i realize? any and all help and hints would be greatly apprichiated, thanks in advance.

    The PowerBooks have an F-key that toggles mirrored and extended mode. My PB is loaned out right now but I think it was f7. The keycap has an icon on two overlapping rectangles, as I recall.
    EDIT: Yes! Found a pdf of the PB manual it shows F7 is the toggle:

    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

    Your's may look more like this...
    ...if you're running Mountain Lion. I'm in clamshell mode right now, so I don't have any mirroring options. AFAIK, there's no more "Show displays in menu bar" in Mountain Lion.

    Problems facing....
    My cinema HD is set to primary display and Cinema as 2nd display. Everything was working fine but suddenly my 2nd display stopped working. It remains black as if its in sleep mood. The small power led light on the monitor is On(not blinking). In Graphics/Displays shows both monitors are connected. I can drag any window to the 2nd display as if its working but its still black. In display preferences it shows both monitor on arrangement section. I can even change the resolution size of both monitors.
    My cinema display monitor has no problem. I have checked it already. I have swapped the DVI ports at the back of my cpu but it seems only the 2nd port is giving this problem. As if no matter what my 2nd port of graphics card is on sleep mood. I have taken it to our local apple center and both ports were working fine there, the only difference is they checked it using none apple lcd monitor. But when I brought it back to office, it had the same problem again. The strange thing is....one day while I was working the 2nd display suddenly appeared but when I restarted my mac, it went back to the same problem. Till now my 2nd display not showing anymore. I have reinstalled to new OSx but the problem remains. So can anyone pls tell me how I can solve this problem.
    thanks
    <Edited by Host>

    only the 2nd port is giving this problem
    You have an older card, and the second port is flaky. The problem follows the port.
    I am sorry to be so blunt, but the problem is YOU.
    No one wants to be the one to club you on the head and point out that your card is dying, and you are going to have to get a new(er) one. There is no "quick fix" for dying Hardware, and no fix at all for you when you will not connect the dots and realize your card is on its last legs.
    If running 10.6.4 or later, you can install the 5770 and it will work, but not at quite the advertised speeds if your slot will only go up to 8x.

  • Using FCP 7 - Can I connect two more displays to the new 27" iMac and have one as a display monitor?

    I use Final Cut Pro 7 right now and am thinking about buying the new 27" iMac with the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780M 4GB GDDR5 card. I have a 24" Apple Cinema Display with mini Display port cable. I also have one more Samsung display with DVI & HDMI. Can I connect both monitors to the iMac and be able to use one in FCP as a display monitor?

    Hello,
    Maybe a device like the Targus USB 3.0 SuperSpeed Dual Video Adapter or StarTech USB 3.0 to HDMI an DVI Dual Monitor External Video Card Adapter would work?

  • How to get iPad sound while mirroring to a display monitor?

    For a presentation, I'm mirroring my iPad display using wifi into an AppleTV connected to an HD display monitor. Like most monitors these days, it contains no speaker to receive the iPad's sound. Unfortunately, it appears that when you mirror, the sound emanating from the ipad's speakers and earphones is cut off, so I have no app sounds to go with my presentation.
    Anyone know any way I can get sounds from the iPad apps while mirroring onto a display monitor?

    Yes, RMPS, an optical-to-analog converter seems so far the only way to do this, unless one wants to pay twice as much for a speaker-equipped display monitor. It would be nice though, if Apple software would provide the choice to keep the iPad audio "on" while mirroring.
    Fred*M, the VGA adapter did not work for me although I tried it. It does allow the monitor to display certain iPad pictures or movies, but it does not appear to mirror everything on the iPad screen.
    I don't happen to have a Bluetooth device: does anyone know whether Bluetooth is turned off also during mirroring?
    Thanks all.

  • Have new Apple Display Monitor

    I have a new Apple Display Monitor with new Thunderbolt cable. I currently have a MacBook Pro with older Mini DVI port. Is there an adapter for going from TB to DVI?

    No - you MUST have a Thunderbolt port on your Mac in order to work with the Apple Thunderbolt Display.

  • Connect MacBook with Studio Display Monitor (2000)

    I am trying to connect my MacBook with an old Studio Display monitor (made in 2000) that has an ADC 30 Male cord. I have a Mini-DVI to DVI 24 Female Adapter that fits into my laptop. I can't seem to find a DVI 24 Male to ADC 30 Female adapter, which is what appears I need. Is there anything I can do to make this work? Thanks!

  • Apple 21" studio Display monitor-help

    I have a G4 and just got an apple 21" studio display monitor
    I work in photoshop CS2 what do I put the resolution at? Color and refresh?
    what should the white point and gamman be? what should the profile on themonitor display?
    I WENT INTO THE PREFERENCES AND LOOKED AT THE DISPLAY..THANKS..JAN

    (for my photos the service I use said to use sRGB the resolution)....
    Then open CS2 and under Photoshop scroll down to Color Settings, go to Work Space and set the RGB tab to sRGB. At the top of the menu under Monitor it should be your Apple 21" Display.
    If it is not then it will change after you calibrate the monitor. Open System Preferences/Desktop and change your desktop to a medium gray (you can change it back after you make the necessary color corrections). Now choose Display, select your preferred screen resolution, and millions of color. Now choose Color from the upper tab to Calibrate the monitor. If you check the box "Show profile for this display only" the menu will be simplified. Now select Calibrate and use the professional mode. Just follow the on screen instructions and do all of the color setting using the 1.8 gamma and native whiter point.
    After the monitor is calibrated you will be asked to save and name the calibration. I would recommend a name similar but different from the default Apple 21" Display setting, you can even include the date if you calibrate often.
    Reopen Photoshop and check the Work Space the RGB/Monitor the setting should be your recent selected calibration.

  • Can I run two thunderbolt display monitors off of my new 27" iMac?

    Can I run two thunderbolt display monitors off of my new 27" iMac?

    Yes, the new iMac has two Thunderbolt ports. Plus Thunderbolt can be daisy chained thru external Thunderbolt drives and displays that have multiple ports.
    For more info, see >  Apple - Thunderbolt: Next-generation high-speed I/O technology.
    Although I'm not sure exactlly what Arrangement selections you will be offered in the Displays Preference, because I have not tested that setup myself...

  • My Mac Pro (2006) has suddenly stopped sending signal to the display monitor.

    My Mac Pro (2006) has suddenly stopped sending signal to the display monitor. It coincided with plugging in an Epson printer via usb - while the system was running. Pretty dumb maybe? Could I have damaged the video card? Anyone ideas? Thanks

    Howdy Le Batch,
    I was looking into the issue you are seeing here, and came across a helpful article for this specific situation. It's named Apple computers: Troubleshooting issues with video on internal or external displays and can be found here:
    When using an external display be sure to check the following:
    If you're using an Apple notebook, confirm the AC power cable or adapter is securely connected to the computer and the cable providing power to the display is also secure. It is always good to have your notebook connected to AC power when an external display is in use.
    Confirm display adapters are fully seated in their respective connections and that they are supported models and for the computer and display. Refer to these articles to assist you with adapter compatibility and further configuration information:
    Monitor and Display Adapter Table
    About Mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapters
    Apple Mini DisplayPort adapters: Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
    Thunderbolt ports and displays: Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
    Remove all display cable extenders, KVM switches, or other like devices and retest to determine if the issue is resolved.
    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 resolutionStart 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.
    Regards,
    Sterling
