Remote Desktop on pc with 2 monitors, programs previously open on the second monitor does not show

Using remote connection to a system with two monitors

At work, I have a Windows XP Pro SP3 system with two screens.  Sometimes, I work from home using my PC at home to connect to the network through a VPN and logging remotely and then in my work computer.  When I launch a program that last turned on my secondary screen to work, it is not visible at home because the remote access connection supports only one (primary) view.  The same thing happens with pop-up in applications, for example a search window.  If the last time I used search in Word, I moved the contextual search to the secondary display window, so I can't see the search engine remote access connection using from home.  Some of these pop-up windows have no menu on them to minimize, maximize, move, and close so there is (apparently) no shortcut to open this menu

If a tab of the window appears in the taskbar at the bottom of the Windows desktop, I can right click on it and a popup menu will appear. I then click on move, then left click of the mouse and start dragging until the window off the screen starts to appear on my primary display.  However some windows have no popups menus when I right click on their tab taskbar so I can't select move.  Others have no tab that appears for them in the taskbar.

Is it possible to move such a window to my primary remote access connection screen without being able to see it?

If not, is there a way to move my work computer to screen single operation of the House using to access remote connection so that all windows appear on the main display?

Thank you!

Don't know if it will work, but it's worth a try...

Try a right-click in an open in the tray area and then select the "Cascade Windows" option in the context menu.

You can also try to move by pressing Alt-space on the keyboard and then the key M. is the equivalent of a "move".  Then use the left or right arrow key to move the window in the view.

HTH,
JW

  • When I turn on the computer, it does not show my office. It comes up with a white screen

    Original title: bad start.

    On May 15, 2013, I was prompted to download 8 updates from Microsoft. Since then when I turn on the computer, it does not show my office. It comes with a white screen. The only way to see the desktop is at the stop 'wrong' to turn off the power to the computer. Then I reboot, it just asking if I want to boot up normally, I say Yes and all is well on the office. Seems related to downloads of May 15, 2013. Any ideas?

  • Problem with the Organizer - it does not show changes to ACR

    When I open JPEG files in ACR, apply the changes (for example, Saturation - 100), click done, and then to open these files in the Organizer - it does not show changes in the cab so that I can't use an option File/Export as a new file. When I click on this file in the Organizer menu and open again in the editor, the image opens in ACR (not Photoshop editor) with changes


    In the example below you can see that in the Organizer in metadata / Camera Raw/Saturation (in Polish "my") = - 100, but does not show the image in black and white. I do something wrong? Help, please.


    organizer-problem.PNG

    In short, the changes you make in ACR are saved in the section of metadata of jpeg files when you click on "Done" you demonstrated.

    You are right, the thumbnails are not updated in the Organizer, and changes are not taken into account when the export of the Organizer (unlike what I thought).

    When you reopen the file of the editor or organizer, it is automatically opens again in the ACR dialog box and leaves you the choice of the original version, the default value 'auto', ACR, your 'custom' corrections correction or corrections of the already modified the file. That's fine when you modify or re - edit files individually, but this isn't the solution for the process of 'batch' as an export or by applying the same correction to a batch of files.

    My suggestion is to use a workflow that I tested recently.

    Let's say you have a batch of 20 files JPEG editing in ACR.

    -You can open them all in the cab to the command "open in camera raw" Editor.

    -You can leave the default conversion of ACR or add other corrections to some of the files.

    -to highlight all the files in the film strip and click 'done '.

    -You use the 'save' button to convert to DNG with the options you want. (I choose to create in the same location)

    As a result:

    -your files JPEG is unchanged, no thumbnail is updated, the corrections are ignored in the export process as described above.

    -You can import the DNG of their location (with a record of 'control' can help).

    -the DNG is displayed with thumbnails updated

    -they can be exported as you want

    -You can see JPEG and DNG files

    -You can even ignore the original JPEG (the DNG format keeps intact with a reasonable increase in file size).

    -If you want a redundant storage, we can use the function 'automatically suggest photo stacks' for battery original JPEG and DNG.

    If it works for you?

  • First pro. external monitor does not show the images.

    First question double pro monitor.

    My film shows sporadically on the monitor.

    I'm running to update Premiere pro cc with Yosemite

    on the more powerful 15 "macbook pro 2015 with a nec pa272w monitor.

    Installation works perfectly with Lightroom and Photoshop.

    First, I have the screen selected in the preferences/reading and ok' ed.

    Transmission is checked in the program monitor menu.

    The monitor shows my first pro content, it is sometimes erratic. Usually after opening the program my images does not appear on the monitor. Then I go into preferences/reading and click the ok button and the area. Then I go back to my sequence and often after a pause of two seconds my work often shows on the monitor yet... sometimes, but not at the moment.

    In the preferences of my laptop, I have my monitors side by side with the menu bar on the screen of the laptop. I also tried to drag the open program of my laptop screen in the monitor and sometimes then the laptop screen will function as the external monitor and show my pictures. Then if I drag to the screen of my laptop I get the external monitor to show my project. However, this made the first collision. I also made sure that nothing on my laptop screen encroaches on the external monitor.

    Please help me solve this problem.

    Does anyone have any suggestions.  I tried to re-install vmtools and agent of the view.  With reboots after each uninstall and install.

    Isn't the problem as far as I could determine with the agent of the view.  I have restored my environment view 6.0.1 and still the problem persisted.

    We have been updating vpshere U3 5.5 6.0 environment.  Only workstations where the vmtools has been updated have had this problem.  The suggestion of roneng was useful in helping to confirm the root cause.  But the version provided in the message information was not clear.

    For desktop computers running the most recent version of the vmtools version is 9.10.5.2981885.

    I have download the U3 5.5 vmtools from vmware https://packages.vmware.com/tools/esx/index.html download site

    the version is 9.4.15.2827462.

    After reinstalled vmtools with version 5.5 of U3 PCoIP worked with multiple monitors.

    Thanks to everyone for their suggestions.

  • Firefox has only display problems in the upper left region of only my Dell U3011 monitor; the monitor does not have these problems with any other application

    Some parts of the Firefox window are translucent, allowing the image of the desktop to show through. These regions are anything but great internet site central image which behaves normally. Unless the desktop is completely black this problem makes reading the tabs, address bar and the bookmark are difficult if not impossible. I encounter this problem only on my new Dell U3011 monitor. Firefox is the only application that has this issue on the Dell monitor. The monitor built into the laptop that animates the Dell monitor does not exhibit this problem.

  • Problems with my slower... graphic AGA and external monitor does not display

    First of all, let me say that I am not computer savy.  I just bought an Alienware 17 June 1.  Got my AGA and installed a Geoforce GTX 980 inside graphics card.  First I tried as far as I know (which is not yet much about computers) to connect an external monitor to the AGM.  For some reason that the monitor does not display anything and my laptop States there is not all the other monitors it can detect.  Now, the other problem I have is that I run games using my AGA and when its connected I can really see my games download restless and slower.  I thought that the whole purpose of the AGM was pushed my graphics and do amazing things... not very frustrating.  Any suggestions on what I might hurt?

    Try the following:

    Disconnect the graph.

    Uninstall the video card drivers.

    Install the following driver (this version is not in the official Dell support website again, however, it has been tested by our engineers)

    Restart the system and connect the graphic amplifier and test it.

    Please let me know if this helps you solve the problem.

  • Primary monitor does not work after last nights updated

    • I'm running Ultimate.
    • I have two monitors.
    • My primary monitor does not work.
    • I checked the VGA cables. This isn't the issue.
    • Edit: Just realized that my main monitor is a monitor "Westinghouse". -Who is a "Plug-in-and-play" monitor, there are no drivers.
    • Reinstalled the ATI drivers, did nothing.
    • SYSTEM RESTORED, still nothing.

    I ran the most recent update for final last night, then fell asleep. Everything worked before that date, but when I went to turn on my computer this morning, only my HP [my second monitor.] w17e worked. He said he was installing updates from last night, so I had no problem with him and thought it might show something once like this on the login screen.

    Once that has happened to the login screen, it showed it for a fraction of a second before disappearing. I entered my password and it connected as usual. After login, I turned off my monitor, and then back on, and it showed my normal desktop for a moment, [enough for me to close two-three programs] before she returned empty.

    Hello
     
    I recommend you to update the graphics drivers and see if it makes a difference. You must be logged on as administrator to perform these steps.
     
    1. open Device Manager by clicking the Start button, click on the Control Panel, clicking system and Maintenance, and then clicking Device Manager. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
    2. in Device Manager, locate the graphics card and then double-click the device name.
    3. click Driver tab, then click on set to update driver and follow the instructions.

    Now, try to follow the link provided to update a hardware driver that is not working properly and check the question below.
