X230T rotate VGA projector - independen​t monitor driver?

Hi!  Could not find a clear, definitive answer when searching this issue, so here it is... when using the X230T in tablet mode with the secondary landscape setting and a VGA projector connected using duplicate displays, the projector image is upside down.
I would like to rotate the VGA image while maintaining the proper tablet features in terms of screen annotations, etc.  So far I have been unbale to find a setting that will allow me to have proper functionality in the secondary landscape setting and the rotated VGA image.
One forum post suggested a driver that will treat the tablet and the VGA projector as independent monitors, so the rotation does not impact the tablet features.  I have not been able to find such a driver.  The Intel Graphics & Media Control Panel does NOT help since it appears to treat the monitors as dependent (rotating one of them by 180 degrees does not appear to help at all).
Can someone please point me in the right direction?  Either with the default driver or a OEM driver that I could buy or download?
The VGA projector is located on the ceiling and shared by different people, so changing the projector settings is not a feasible option.  Help is appreciated.  Cheers!

I've managed to rotate only secondary monitor in the duplicated-display setting. I used Intel Graphic control panel, and it worked well.

  • Best way to hook a Mini display port to a vga projector AND a vga monitor

    I am looking for the best way to hook a Mini display port to a vga projector AND a vga monitor for use in a classroom, right now I am thinking a Mini displayport adapter to a splitter.

    The Thunderbolt port is the one to use; you use the same mini-DisplayPort adapter you used for the older minis.

  • Flex 10 and VGA Projector

    I have just bought a Flex 10 being assured that I can use it to drive a projector through a Belkin HDMI to VGA Projector Adapter.  It works OK with a VGA computer monitor connected via extended desktop, however it just refuses to work when connected to a BenQ W100 projector through a VGA to DVI adaptor.  The projector just doesn't see it. The projector works fine from a laptop.  Any ideas?

    I know what to do on a PC but not a macbook. Basically it sounds like your display is extending to the second screen, not duplicating (meaning what you project and what you see on your mac screen are the same)
    Try to poke around in the set up slideshow or display settings of your program (keynote?) and see if there are controls for extending or duplicating the screen.
    What program are you using? If there's a forum for it I can ask the hosts to move this to the specific forum and see if it can get you a more precise answer faster. Or we can just get them to move it to the macbook forum.

  • How do you sync macbook air to overhead VGA projector?

    How do you sync a macbook air to overhead VGA projector for slide presentation?

    Welcome to Apple Discussions
    That depends on the set up of the projector.
    What input does the projector support? Older projectors often had VGA, S-video or RCA composit video inputs. Newer ones might have HDMI or a LAN cable, some of the newest are AirPlay compatible. 
    Once you have determined what connector you must (or can choose) to use you pick one and open System Preferences Displays... the MBA should be detecting and showing a second monitor... your projector should be detecting and showing a input signal.  You just have to match them up resolution and refresh rate wise.
    Say the projector has a resolution of 800x600. Compared with MBA's 1366x768 resolution, if you simply have it mirror the MBA, its screen is going to shrink to the point where it is more difficult to run apps (especially if you select them from the top toolbar, as everything is squashed together).
    Conversely, if you choose to use the projector as a 2nd screen, it preserves the MBA's original resolution, and only affects any app drug off-screen (which is what the students will see). You will still have the main desktop available for apps to keep open (but don't want the students to see).

  • Is there a way to connect a VGA projector to my 27" iMac?

    There doesn't seem to be any kind of mini display port on my 27" iMac.  Anyone know how I can connect to a VGA projector?

    If it's a new iMac it has a Thunderbolt port with a lightning bolt icon. You can plug a mini-display port VGA adapter into it. If it doesn't have a Thunderbolt it has the same shaped port with a little computer monitor looking icon (I think). Then use same VGA adapter and VGA cable.
    Your sig says G5 but that can't be right if you have a 27" so please update your profile. Which model iMac do you have?

  • Jittery image on VGA projectors with MBP

    Recently I have had trouble projecting presentations from my MacBook Pro (15", early 2011, OS 10.8.3, 8 GB RAM) to several different VGA projectors. I am using a mini-Display to VGA adapter and use 2-screen mode (not mirroring). Initially, everything is fine - the projected image looks clean, but after a while, lines start to zigzag and jitter - as if someone was physically bumping the projector (or like a bad TV signal). This gets progressively worse and makes it nearly impossible to give a professional presentation (which I am required to do for my job). I have bought a brand-new miniDisplay-VGA adapter - no improvement! I am very careful to make sure that connections and cables are all solid. The same problem does NOT exist for external monitors hooked up via DVI or HDMI adapters/cables. Any suggestions/ideas?

    First I tried flicker filter, and it helped some of the photos, but others became even worse! (The entire image shakes now instead of just portions.) I removed the flicker filter and tried the de-interlace filter, and that produced about the same results. I would try editing the photos separately in Adobe Photoshop, but before I delve into that I would like to set up an external video monitor. Unfortunately I've wasted about two days, and I can't seem to get it to work. I first tried by connecting the iMac to a Sony camcorder and connecting the camcorder to the video port on my television. No joy. Then I tried connecting the iMac via a mini-DVI to video adapter to my television. I thought my old television might be the problem, so I connected instead to the video port on a projector, and it still didn't work! I've changed the display settings and deleted certain preferences files, to no avail. My iMac doesn't seem to recognize the external display. I'm beginning to doubt this Mac purchase. Thanks for any help you can provide!

  • I have a new Imac and connected a VGA projector

    We have a new imac and have connected it to a VGA projector and have purchased a mini VGA convertor cable from the apple store, but now it changes the resolution once you change monitor in the system folder to mirrow. This is the only way we can get it to work. This there a problem with OS Lion.

    You can disable it as a desktop in System Preferences > MIssion control > uncheck "Show Dashboard as a space".

  • DVD - failed to load monitor driver

    Built 4 MSI systems using KN9neo motherboards and barton and pheno 1 processors - zero problems
    Just built another system with phenom 2 processor and MSI   NF750-G55 (MS-7578) motherboard
    running XP fully patched
    Everything works except the auto run on the lite-on cd/dvd writer
    When i first booted xp with no graphics driver, the MSI drivers disk auto ran fine and I installed all the drivers
    Now I can see the files on the utility disk but it wont auto run (or run the setup.exe file)
    error is - 'failed to load monitor driver'
    When I put the drivers disk in my phenom 1 machine it auto runs fine
    I see the device manager shows 2 vga entries for dual screen use no doubt
    Any ideas please - you might say why are you worried as all the drivers are on your machine - but i wonder if other dvd's might not auto run.
    cd's auto run fine in the drive - its just the drivers DVD disk that will not auto run ...
    I tried swapping the optical drive with my other machine which will auto run the disk, but it had the same problem - so the optical drive is ok but there is some incompatibility ?
    Should on chip vga be enabled in BIOS - tried it on and off - no diff
    thanks

    Enter Device Manager and have a look at top of the list for 'Monitors', and then 'Graphics cards'. Don't know the titles in your lingua.
    There seems to be something fishy with the drivers. I would restart the driver installation process, by uninstalling them. Don't think you are tempted to do so. 
    PSU too, please.
    graphics card looks good and tried to update it via internet - it says present driver is ok
    These two monitors showing are something I have never come across - they both say 'default monitor'
    Yes i think i will acronis what i have and take the drivers out and reinstall
    Two default monitors are weird or is it me that out of date as to how phenom 2's and fancy motherboards work... i will try it and report back !
    thanks

  • RetinaDisplay MBP not displaying correctly connected to VGA Projector

    I am not sure if this is a Mountain Lion issue or Retina MBP issue
    New MBP.
    hooked it up to a VGA projector tonight ( Apple store folk told me to use the same minidisplayport adapter I used with my older MBP which did  fit the Thunderbolt port.
    Monitor and Mac saw each other but my MBP did not project correct resolution or dimensions
    MBP still seemed to think it was connected to my 27" monitor at home.
    Is this an adapter issue? a MBP issue? a Mountain Lion issue
    Something was amiss
    Any ideas?

    Doesn't work that way with the Retina display
    a)  I never had to select a resolution previously when connecting a VGA projector.My previous Mac auto adjusted its resolution
    b) The preference does not allow choices of resolution as in the past
    Look at how differnt this preference is
    If I chose Scaled I get a few choices of larger or smaler text.
    There may be some options in the main menu bar which Ineed to look at when connecting a monitor ( based on some other posts elsewhere in this Apple discussion area.Dunno... I am sure I am overlookign something  but the old auto adjust is gone, I think

  • How to connect the iPad to a VGA projector

    I read the comments about using the iPad with a VGA projector for presentations, but those were for the original iPad. My association is asking me to present a live demonstration of the new iPad 2. I tested the iPad 2 with the digital connector to HDMI on my TV and that works great. I can move around all the screens on my iPad and even play Angry Birds.
    But what about connecting this iPad 2 to a VGA projector? All the earlier comments referred to that process as "very limited" with only a few apps running on it, like Keynote. That won't do for my presentation. Is there a solution or does the new iPad 2 fully support a standard (read old) VGA projector?
    Thank you for your replies.
    Jean Feuillet

    It is my understanding that the dgital adapter will give you full video mirroring over HDMI from the iPad 2, although there are some reported models of TVs and projectors that have issues, but that analog signaling, such as VGA, is limited to apps specifically written to provide access to that type of video connection.

  • How do I  see powerpoint presentation on  VGA projector?

    I have the mini DVI to VGA adapter. After I connect my macbook to a vga projector what function key or command do I use to see my powerpoint presentation on the VGA projector?

    It is essentially 'plug and play' - this was taken from the following linked site...
    Tip: To make sure that your computer automatically detects theexternal display or projector, be sure you plug the adapter into theexternal display or projector before you plug it into the computer.
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303236
    If you Macbook screen does appear and you still have powerpoint problems then the issue may be with your presentation as whatever appears on your screen should appear on your projector.

  • Connecting DVI Cinema Display and VGA Projector from Minidisplay Port

    Hi Everyone!
    I'm trying to get my mid 2011 Mac Mini to send a signal from my MiniDisplay Port to a vga splitter which works fine. My biggest thing is that when I connect my inFocus IN112 VGA Projector the screen shows up from my mac but to connect my Cinema Display it takes VGA so I had to go from the VGA Splitter on one side and use a vga to dvi adapter and my cinema display shows blank? Help Me Please!!
    Thanks,
    Andrew

    I already have a converter on the end of the VGA Splitter to go to the Cinema. The reason I don't use the hdmi to dvi is because with the minidisplay port using vga to the projector and the hdmi going to dvi to the Cinema it makes the projector screen very rough and pixely

  • External VGA Projector Screen Blue when MacBook Pro Connected

    I love using my laptop for Powerpoint and Keynote presentations at work. I used to have a Powerbook 1.5GHz 15" and now have a MacBook Pro 2.2GHz 15". With some external VGA projectors, after connecting the MacBook Pro, everything works great. I turn off mirroring and my presentation goes smoothly.
    However, with some particular external VGA projectors, I get a connection problem. After using my DVI-to-VGA cable to connect my MBP to the projector, nothing happens. The projector continues to project a blue screen as though nothing is connected to it and as though it has no video source. I've cycled through the projectors input selections hoping the projector would find the signal but still nothing. I've even restarted my MBP with the cables attached to the projector and still the projector shows a blue screen.
    My friends can connect their PC Windows XP and Windows Vista computers to this same projector with no problems. I used to have this same problem with my PowerBook G4 which is one of the reasons I upgraded to the new MBP hoping this problem would be resolved. What's wrong and what can I do to get my MBP compatible with the external projector?

    Sorry, I meant the cable that links between the connector and the input to the projector (RGB - IN by the way, not OUT).
    We have a number of these VGA cables at my place of work that will work with a PC but not a Mac. Some are fine. My technician holds on to a cable for me that we know works and if I get a bad one, he brings in the replacement and it takes a few seconds to go online. I also note that some of the projectors (particularly ceiling mounted ones) have an additional adapter between the cable and the projector. It may be that some of the pins are not connected.
    Of course, if the projector is mounted too high, that would not allow easy replacement.
    I would suggest finding a cable that works and carrying that around.

  • IPad to vga projector connection questions

    My kids got me a 3rd gen ipad and an apple tv and I would like to do keynote presentations and display them on an older vga projector.  If it matters it would be in a place without internet.  The projector is ceiling mounted with a wall mounted vga connector that is hard wired to it.  I believe the projector can also function as a server for wireless presentations, but I don't know how to wirelessly connect that to the iPad.  To get it working either way would be great.  Any suggestions or  directions would be very appreciated.  Thanks.

    Well I just now looked at the apple reviews of the mini display port to vga adapter to find that many people experience these things not working. Maybe the 3 I have are all dead. I never even thought that all the adapters I have might be defective. All other apple display adapters I have (that are are much older) still work. I have some display adapters that are probably 10 years old that still work great (mini dvi to dvi adapter crica 2004). Anyways I just ordered a new one and will report back after I have a chance to test it out.
