• E-mail and calendar will not connect on a dual monitor system.

  I have a MacBook Pro (15-inch, mid-2012) running on Yosemite 10.10.5.  I currently have a system of dual monitor hooked up with an Acer monitor (version: AL1916W Abd ~ Jan. 2008).  When I use this monitor as Desktop 2 and move my apps to email and calendar to this office, I suddenly find that mail will not receive any new messages very well and the calendar will often lose the connection and does not update to mobile.  I thought maybe of interference on the WiFi, but Google Chrome runs on the desktop at the same speed as on my laptop.  Perhaps it is still a form of interference, but I don't know what is the cause or how to fix it.  Perhaps the monitor is too old and now is not compatible with my operating system?  The monitor is connected with a VGA XAVIER to converter Thunderbolt and a VGA cable normal VGA.

  The internet I use is the internet at the University where I work, so reset the router or something like that is not an option.  Help?

• HP 251-a123w: I have a Setup dual monitor using VGA and DVI - D ports?

  I want to connect my HP 22uh monitor to my office using a DVI - D to DVI - D configuration.  Then I would like to complete a Setup dual monitor by connecting an Acer X193w monitor to my office using a VGA VGA configuration.

  Is this possible?  Two ports on my desktop computer can be used at the same time to support dual monitor?

  I see that the cables double monitor are in the form of Y and I thought that maybe a single port may be used simultaneously.  If someone knew this information then it would save some time & money on experimentation...

  Monitor HP 22uh was bundled with my new desktop PC and I cleaned the Acer to my now deceased Vista system.  It is in very good condition, would like to add.

• The dual monitor settings not remembered

  I just added a second monitor (same size and resolution as the first monitor). After using "personalize > display settings", activating the second monitor in the mode double screen, monitor the position and resolution, then selecting "apply > Save Settings > OK" the new monitor will work fine. However, when I restart the PC, Windows knows more on the second monitor and I have to redo all the settings more. It's ALWAYS happening (and not sporadically). I've never had this happen before in configurations dual monitor. I don't do something correctly?

  I'm under Windows Vista Ultimate 64-bit, 2-24 "1920 x 1280 Digital monitors, graphic adapter advanced ATI HD 4850 with dual output DVI, 8 GB of memory.

• Dual monitor - not compatible with this signal TV

  original title: dual monitor

  Hello!

  I connected my laptop to my LCD TV and chose the option to only display on the external monitor.  Unfortunately I get the error message on my TV "not compatible with this signal.  Because it does not work and I can't see I can't change all the options in the display configuration.  How can I restore my original settings so that when I connect to my TV the picture is displayed on my laptop?

  Thank you in advance for your help!

  XO steph

  Try typing the F8 key before Windows starts to appear in the start menu and select this option to start safe mode.  Make the changes to the view that you need to save and restart.  You can also try to plug an external monitor instead of your TV to see if you can see a picture then and make the necessary changes.

  Hello

  I am currently under a dual screen setup with my monitor and a separate screen. It seems to work fine for a while and then all of a sudden my computer will start to act up, and then it will go to the blue screen of death. A small window pop up at the bottom left says there is a problem with my video card driver, but I have updated their and still get the same problem.

  Info:

  Laptop - Toshiba Satellite M300 - 4 GB RAM - Vista Home Premium

  Graphics - ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3470 graphics card

  Also, I checked the information page on the ATI website for this video card, and they even state it supports dual monitor.

  
  

  Thanks in advance, Scott

  EDIT - if I remove the VGA cable connect my laptop on the screen while my computer crashes, it will return to normal after a second or two. However, if I try to plug it back in then it will take to crash my computer.

• Dual monitor installed on Inspiron 3487

  I'm reposting this question here posted with no luck in the Dell Forum of bureau-video community. BTW, my OS is Windows 8.1 64bits.

  I just bought a Dell Inspiron desktop i3847-5386BK and I am trying to achieve a Setup dual monitor with 2 monitors 24 "widescreen LED Dell E2414Hr.

  The specifications for the detailed but photos also Office of front, back and inside the computer are here:

  http://www.Newegg.com/product/product.aspx?item=N82E16883156238

  Basically, the Office has 1 VGA port, 1 HDMI port and multi-port USB 2.0/3.0

  Specifications for the monitor, but also detailed photos are here:

  http://www.microcenter.com/product/420579/e2414hr_24_widescreen_led_monitor

  Basically, the monitor has 1 VGA and 1 DVI - D port

  The first monitor is already connected from the port VGA monitors to the VGA port of the desktop computer via the VGA cable supplied with the monitor.

  My question is about the best way to connect the second monitor. One option is to get a HDMI cable at one end (office) and DVI - D at the other end (monitor). The computer will be able to manage this dual output and adjust automatically to both monitors or it will require some changes of setting? The computer lacks a dedicated to my knowledge graphics card and my main goal is to use these monitors independently with occasional extended desktop display.

  Also, are there better options for the office monitor the connection in this case as a (office) HDMI to VGA (monitor)? I saw online that the HDMI cables at one end and VGA on the other end could be a scam because it is not possible to convert a digital signal to analog without converter, but also there are people who say this type of cable works fine. Are there better options to connect the second monitor using the USB ports on the computer? Given that one of my monitors is already connected via a VGA cable VGA will be the second different monitor everything in terms of brightness, readability etc if it has a DVI - D instead of VGA input? Finally, what would be a place to get the converter/cable recommended discount?

  Sorry for the post of multiple question since a long time, but any help on this would be much appreciated and will help other institutions. Thank you in advance!

  Computer output VGA--> VGA cable VGA--> #1 E2414Hr VGA in
  Output HDMI--> HDMI to DVI cable to computer--> 2 # E2414Hr DVI in

  Once connected, open the Intel HD Graphics Control Panel and configure the second monitor.

• Dual monitor problems

  I have been using two monitors (1 monitor my primary monitor, 2 monitor showing an extension of monitor 1) for several years now. All of a sudden, monitor 2 links is no longer. I swapped the connections from the cables to the back of my Tower. When I started my computer, startup began the 2 monitor, but as soon as Windows is fully booted, 1 monitor again became the primary monitor and 2 the screen went black. I guess this isn't a hardware problem.

  After some tinkering on the video card Control Panel, I could get 2 monitor to display, but it is no longer made reference the name of the 2 monitor (Asus) as a monitor. It refers to the second screen as "Digital Display" and considers it a generic Non - PnP monitor. I don't understand how it happened, why it happened or how to get my second screen displays correctly again. Currently, monitor 2 a haywire resolution, and I can't improve it (my own, its because he does not recognize the Asus monitor properly and does not know the capabilities of resolution of it).

  I hope someone can understand my problem and is able to help, because I simply can't understand it.

  Hello
