When using multiple displays, is it possible to only have full screen zoom (universal access) only effect one display?

I am visually impaired which makes it difficult for me to use computers. The zoom feature in Mac OS is extremly useful to me and is the first reason I choose mac over windows. Although, now that I've been using a mac for 8 years, I would pick a mac any day! For my work flow, I utilize two displays. It would help me greatly if there was a way to only effect one display with the zoom feature.
Thank you for your input,
Zachary

You can set the zoom to ONLY follow your mouse (And adjust the size of the "zoom window" that follows it). I used to use this with Quick time Editing when I had a 13" iMac.

Application no longer assignable to a desktop in Spaces. Useable only in full screen, can't access it when not in full screen.

This is a repost to correctly ID this as a Spaces issue. I am using a MacBook Pro with a second monitor in extended desktop. I put iMovie in full screen and when I put it back, it disappeared off of both desktops. I can see it in Spaces and I can use it in full screen. However, it is not available when not in full screen. When I drag and drop it in Spaces to a desktop, it animates off of the top of the screen versus landing on that desktop. I have tried to change the application assignment by right clicking on the iMovie Icon > Options > Assign To, but it affects nothing. I have rebooted both with the external monitor and without, I have uninstalled and reinstalled iMovie and I have tried many combinations of screen resolutions and it is still assigned somewhere other than a desktop. It appears to no longer be associated with or assignable to a desktop. Anyone have any ideas?

Can you access iMovie without being in fullscreen when you do not have an external monitor connected? I cannot. No matter the monitor configuration, it is only accessible in full screen for me.
I agree - it is for sure a bug.

Is there a way to prevent actions, like spaces, to only occur on one screen when using multiple monitors?, Is there a way to prevent actions, like spaces, to only occur on one screen when using multiple monitors?

Hello, I am using my Macbook Pro, late 2012 with a second monitor, which is a TV. I am wondering if there is a way to prevent spaces from poping up in the second monitor when i want it to ocur in the primary monitor? So on one monitor, or whichever one the mouse is, I want say Spaces, or Launch pad to popup on and not interfer with the other screen. Is there a way to do this?
Thanks,
Harrison Howard

I believe the answer is no.
I have not been able to make extra monitors stick with a particular space.
Also, there is a relevant discussion here regarding this matter.
The last poster suggests a workaround which does not work as far as I can tell.
Here is the discussion thread
Best of luck

Why is quicktime slower when using multiple mdat atoms

Hi,
I've been trying to generate a mov file and I noticed that the more mdat atoms I put in my mov file the more the file takes time to load on QuickTime, iTunes.
Even worst, on the iPhone the file takes more than 3 minutes to load.
If there are too many mdat atoms quicktime even says that the file is invalid ( error -2004 or -2002, I don't remember exactly).
Why is quicktime/iTunes slower when using multiple mdat atoms ?
Thanks,

Yeah! Problem solved: It's a QT issue.
Cause: Mac Update Software downloaded a faulty QT.
Solution: Download QT from Apple's QT site.
Great to have the Video back

When using Appleworks database for printing labels can I have columns of different widths?

When using Appleworks database for printing labels can I have a column of different width?
Case in point, the supplied avery labels in Appleworks does not have 8195. When I build one using custom design I need a small column between column 2 and 3 to line up the info in columns 3 and 4. All the labels are 1.3/4 inch wide but I need to insert a column 1/4 wide to match up with the avery page....
Any ideas???
Thanks......
---warren

Well, the issue is that when you creat a custom width of 1.3/4 from the edge of the first label to the edge of label 2 all is good. The right and left margins were also set correct in AW. The Avery page, for some reason, has a small 1/4 inch column between the columns of label 2 and 3 therefore making the distance between the left edge of the label in column 2 and the right edge of the label in column 3 - a width of 2 inches and not 1.3/4.
I guess Avery wanted the page to look even.
I did this work around.....
I created a custom lay out of 2 columns (not 4) with the correct width of 1.3/4 from label edge to label edge and the correct left side margin. After printing the first page I just turned the sheet 180 degress and printed the 2nd page to use all the labels on the Avery sheet. Since the upper and lower margin were the same it worked great....

That button is not the Save As button, really, but a link to the DNG converter. To save your raw file in an image format, click the Open button instead and then save in the format of your choice in the editor.

Today, when using the full screen mode, when I switch out of it, its automatically returning to full screen mode one second later. And ideas?

Lightroom is acting up today. If I enter the fullscreen mode to view images, when I try to exit out of it back to the library or develop mode, after one second its returning back to the full screen mode. The only way to exit is to command Q. Any ideas?

Found this on another thread. Havent tried it yet, but am about to.

You need to do it with the cursor.....
"restarted Lightroom then using the menu with cursor only (NOT THE F KEY) I went to window …. Screen mode….. and tried the various modes.. Screen Mode with Menu…..Full Screen…. then the Full Screen Preview (this is was my issue) Once in Full Screen Preview I got out of it using the escape key which worked…. Then I hit the F-Key which again took it into Full Screen Preview then I tried the F-key to get out and it worked!!….. "

Is there a way that when using airplay with power point the ATV does not sleep/screen saver frequently

s there a way that when using airplay with power point the ATV does not sleep/screen saver frequently???

I have done this for several Titles, using Photoshop and a Layer Mask, that gets "erased," revealing the letters. My Titles were of "handwriting with chalk" on a blackboard, so I could keep the edge of that Layer Mask, looking more like the "chalk." Photoshop also makes it easy to output Layer Comps for each "step" in the handwriting process. IIRC, I did about 5 Frames per Layer Comp on Import, but do not recall if I used an extremely short Cross-Dissolve Transition between those - I intened to do so, but just do not remember if I liked that, or went with just the Still Images? Will try to find that animation, and maybe create a full tutorial of the process. In my case, I also added an SFX of chalk on a chalkboard.
If you have Photoshop, it's really quite easy to pull off.
Now, I do not know if Photoshop Elements has Layer Masks yet, which make it so very easy to accomplish. One could do it backward, where the Text Layer gets Erased, and then one would have their full Image as the last in the sequence, and then the next would have a little bit of the Text removed, then a bit more, then a bit more - going backward, until the "writing surface" is clean. One could also do this with a Transparent Background, so that one saw the Video below, and no actual "writing surface" visible.
Good luck,
Hunt

Version 7.2.0 full screen mode does not appear in external display

I just upgraded to Version 7.2.0. The new full screen mode is fabulous. But, when the video starts, it moves the QuickTime window from my giant, external monitor to my laptop monitor. Is there some way to view video in full screen mode on my external monitor?
Cheers,

Here's a solution I thought should work for QuickTime(not pro):
When you plug in an external monitor and choose to extend your desktop there is an extra tab in the "Display Settings" window for "arrangement". So, obviously on this page you can arrange your screens and decide which side you want your external monitor to extend your desktop on. Also, you can hold and drag the menu bar giving you the option of putting the menu bar on your external screen. So, one would think that the display that has the menu bar on it should be used as your default display. So, you would also think that QuickTime Player, when put into full screen mode, would use your "default" display to go into full screen. This seems logical, and possibly even desired behavior from a computer.
However, this is not the case. When I gave this a try no matter where you put your menu bar the QuickTime Player will always open its full screen mode in your MacBook Pro's display. What I propose is some how (though I'm unsure of how to do this) contact apple with a feature request that would allow you to explicitly set a default display and to have all applications use that display for when it goes into full screen.

Thanks for the reply with additional details.
In order to help you with the Elements Organizer 13 and Premiere Elements 13 issues, we need details of that video from iMovie.
You should be able to get the important details of the iMovie video by telling us the export settings that you used for the iMovie export.
Minimum information..
Video Compression
Audio Compression
File Extension
Frame Size
First, update Premiere Elements 13 and Elements Organizer 13 each to the 13.1 Update (See Help Menu/Update in an opened
Premiere Elements 13 project.)
We will be watching for further details in order to plan and carry out troubleshooting strategy.
Thank you.
