I'm posting lyrics up on a projector screen for church and I have keynote.
I wanted to know if there was a way to split the screen to see something different than what the projector is showing, so that I don't have to guess which verse comes next in keynote,
I can just see it on my computer and click it and project it onto the screen. Hoping that made sense!
I'm new to Mac and Keynote and experienced a problem today that I didn't know how to fix.
In the past, I hooked up my MacBook Pro (using the connector dealie that allows you to plug the MacBook into a projector with the prong thingees on it) to an overhead projector mounted in a conference room and it worked fine (I can't remember if I was running PowerPoint or Keynote -- I may have used each app during the different times I was in that room). That hook up worked better than fine, much easier than hooking up a PC.
However today, I was in a different room and had to use an LCD projector to do my presentation. When I hooked everything up and turned it on, I immediately got my desk top on the screen in the room as expected.
But when I opened Keynote and went to "play" the slide show, I got the presenter's version of the slide show (with a timer, a view of the "current" slide and a view of the "next" slide) coming through the LCD projector and onto the screen in the room and the actual slide showed up on my MacBook Pro screen. In other words, it looked like the opposite of what you would think which screen would be projected where.
I have a BIG presentation next week in another city and was planning to use my MacBook Pro. Anyone know what I need to do if I have this problem again to make sure the "slide show" shows up on the screen in the room (through the LCD projector), and not the "presenter's version" on screen?
I am using the pair with an early 2008 Mac Pro octo 2.8. Previous card was a 8800 GT, and previous monitor was a dell 2405WFP. No issue there (other than the 8800's fan noise).With the new setup, I occasionally get a whole screen flicker for a split second, and just now when I woke the display from sleep I got multicolored snow covering the entire screen, like this:

(iphone photo, all I had handy)
Has anyone seen this with either the EVGA card pushing some other dual-link 30" display, or the 3007wfp-hc driven by some other card? I don't really have an easy way to test this myself, as it is pretty intermittent the two arrived around the same time, so I'm not sure which is the cause, but I haven't seen any problems like that in XP so I'm leaning towards the card (drivers, perhaps). I don't spend much time in XP, though, so I'm still not sure.
Mac-mini, OS X Leopard: Suddenly my wife's Leopard Mac- Mini (monitor) screen shows a 'vibrating' display that is split into three distorted parts. I can see it is the Finder shown three times. Fixing Permissions does nothing. Is this a hardware or software problem?
View 5 Replies View RelatedFor the last few hours my unibody MacBook Pro has been occasionally flickering - the whole or some of the screen goes black for a split second. It's not happening frequently but it's never happened before, just checking to see if this is a "rush to the Apple Store" type situation?

I haven't upgraded to snow leopard yet, haven't changed anything recently. It's only a few months old so should I take it to an apple store or is there something simple that might fix it?

I'm using the Mac email program. I opened up the program and all of the sudden I lost the split screen. Before I had the inbox in the top half of the screen and the message body in the bottom half. Now I am just seeing a full screen with the inbox and I have to double click on the message to see the body. I've looked through the toolbar and can't find an option that addresses it.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI am trying to figure out what software and how to use it for making a split screen video. Basically I have 2 videos already recorded of my son, one when first born and one at 3 months. What I want to do is combine them in one video with one movie on the left half of the screen and one on the right, for direct comparison purposes. What program(s) do I need for this to work?

View 1 Replies View RelatedMy macbook is running Mavericks OS X 10.9.4, and I'm having difficulty getting rid of the vertical black columns on my computer screen when it is connected to my classroom projector. I've played with the resolutions, and the best resolution for the VGA display is 1024x768...Unfortunately this creates less than desirable black columns on my computer screen. Another teacher in my school has display settings of "1024x768 stretched," and her macbook does not have the issue mine does. However, I don't think she is running Mavericks 10.9.4. I cannot find this display option on my computer.

I recently hooked my mac laptop to a display projector, and now when I log off or shut down the screen resolution reverts to a stretched view. I reset it to 1280x800 in System Preferences-Display, but it keeps changing back. I'm running OSX 10.5.8

Is that full screen mode gesture demonstrated during the keynote not available until the release of Lion? I installed iLife 11 and don't see any sign of it.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI attempted to show a keynote presentation yesterday and when it went through the LCD projector, it showed the presentation on the left in a small screen and elapsed time on the right. Also, when the projector showed my laptop screen, it did not show the real desktop, it showed way off to the side. How to get it back to normal?

When I set the display settings to the native resolution on the projector there is a small black line or bar down the left hand side of the screen. Not on the right but only on the left. why this would be happening?

I am having the following problem when connecting my macbook to my new Sony projector.
The projector is only showing a portion of the computer screen. It seems as if the computer is dividing the notebook screen and the proyector and I can move objects between the two screens. Its like having two displays.
But i dont want this. I just want to have the projector show exactly what the macbook is showing on its screen so that I can watch movies.
