MacBook :: Make Secondary Display Primary Display When Primary Display Nonfunctional?

Feb 8, 2012

My wife's macbook monitor is destroyed due to happy 2 year old. It won't be worthwhile to replace the monitor and it is not fixable without some expensive work being done on it, therefore I would like to use our TV as an external monitor and retire the macbook to being a mediia computer. I have connected it to the TV, and I see an empty desktop, as far as I can determine it looks like it is treating the TV as a secondary display - that  the desktop is extended onto - so I cannot actually interact with the normal desktop. When I try to run things using keyboard shortcuts I hear some sounds of things starting, but I don't see anything on the TV.  So what I need to do is to have some way to tell it to treat the secondary display as the primary display.  

Info:
iPhone 3G, Windows XP

IMac :: Unable To Use TV As Secondary Monitor / Switch Between Primary And Secondary Display?

Feb 2, 2009

we are trying to hook up our TV as a secondary monitor (for hulu, netflix, etc) but it defaults as the primary monitor. We would like to keep the imac as the primary monitor, and have the TV as a secondary, but cannot figure out how to do it! The only way we can get the imac back to primary status is if we use mirror mode. Once we take it off mirror mode, the TV becomes the primary monitor again, and there appears to be no way of switching it in OSX display preferences.

I've done similar hookups with my laptop, and the TV defaults as the secondary monitor. Why isn't this happening with our iMac? Any ideas?

Mac Pro :: Two Displays - Secondary Wake Up Before Primary

Apr 13, 2009

I have a 2.26 MP with the ATI card. My primary display is an HP 2475w, my secondary is some Samsung 19 inch widescreen. I love the HP display, but it seems to be slow waking from standby. Slow enough that every once in a while after waking my MP from sleep, the Samsung becomes the primary display. This is a huge annoyance because it moves and resizes all of my windows to fit on the smaller Samsung. Maybe I could somehow tell OS X to never ever use the Samsung as the primary display, and instead wait for the HP to come up?

OS X :: Switching Between Primary And Secondary Displays

Aug 15, 2009

I have a Macbook which is setup with an external display. At the moment the external display is set to "the primary" screen and the Macbook the second. I know in order to change the Macbook screen to the "primary" screen I have to go to System Preferences >> Displays >> Arrangements. But is there a way of automating the process so I can easily switch between the two (say with a icon in the dock). I have had a look through Automator, but nothing seems to fit the bill.

Mac QuickTime :: Make Movie - Capture Secondary Screen?

I would like to make a video with QuickTime X screen capture function. I use my MacBook 13,3" with an external monitor. The desktop is extended on the external monitor. If I try to capture the screen with QuickTime X, it records only the main screen (the LCD of my MacBook). Is it possible to capture the external monitor?

Windows On Mac :: How To Make External Monitor Primary

Jun 26, 2009

I'm trying to figure out how to make my external monitor primary in Boot Camp for my Windows XP SP 3 partition. The "Use this device as the primary monitor." button is blanked out, meaning I'm unable to click it. This was the same with my last laptop (Dell Inspiron 6400) but I solved that problem by closing the lid. With my MacBook, when I close the lid the screen does not transfer everything to the larger monitor but simply leaves the screen on.

IMac :: Logging Out Secondary Account Freezes Screen On Login?

Jan 31, 2010

I have a Mid-2007 Mac Mini and I've noticed every couple days, when I log out of the secondary account, it takes a relatively long time to return to the login screen. The blue screen sits there for maybe 30 - 40 seconds, but then when it returns to the main screen the whole machine freezes. The only thing I can move is the mouse, I can't click any of the buttons such as restart, sleep or get back into my account. I always have to do a hard shutdown.

Hardware :: Make The Time Capsule The Primary Base Station?

May 7, 2009

I recently bought a Time Capsule and already own the previous version of Airport Extreme (not dual band, but n/g/b)

I want to make the Time Capsule the primary base station and the Airport Extreme the extender. I have both n and g devices hitting my network.

For the best network throughput, I need to make the Airport Extreme just g only, correct? If I don't, the network performance will "downgrade", correct?

ICloud :: Why Does It Change The Log-on Photo Of Secondary Users

May 1, 2012

I have a prime iCloud account that I use to maintain a single address book and calendar. That way my wife and myself can both keep our address book and calendar the same and current. The iCloud account is in my name using my Apple ID and my wife's Mac is logged in to this account. Both of our Macs have a photo asssociated with our log on IDs. As long as my wife's Mac is logged in to iCloud (the desired situation) the log on photo that appears on her Mac is my photo not hers. I can succcessfulyl change it back to hers using the "Users and Groups" from the "Systems Preferences", but in no time at all it gets changed to my photo. I have isloated the problem to iCloud by having her Mac not logged in to my iCloud account and her photo remains unchanged, as I would expect. 

On her Mac, I have reset the PRAM and executed a safe boot in an attempt to flush any strange data. I have not tried deleting any preferences files as I am not sure which ones to try.

iMac (24-inch Early 2008), Mac OS X (10.7.3), iMac & MacBook Pro

MacBook :: Can't Make Monitor On Mini Display Port Primary Monitor?

Aug 18, 2010

I have a fresh install of Windows XP, service pack 2 on a boot camp partition on my macbook (13" first gen aluminum case) and a Apple LED Cinema Display attached to the mini display port.

I can't seem to make the Cinema Display the primary display (the "Use this device as the primary monitor" checkbox is always greyed out in the Display Property Settings tab). I also can't shut the macbook lid and continue to use it closed (with kb, mouse and monitor attached) like I would when booting OSX.

Is there some other way to make the Cinema Display the primary monitor, so I can leave the macbook closed when booting into Windows?

PowerPC :: Possible To Create New Account And Make It Admin?

Aug 28, 2008

I bought this imac g3 about 4 months ago and thought that maybe it was time to put on some new apps. I go to do it and it says I can't because I'm not the admin. I have no install disks or anything. I looked through the files and found out it was from a high school before they retired it, must have been in the principles office as the 700mhz g3 is in great shape. So how do I create a new account and make it the admin?
