The use of multiple monitors

I have a MacBook end 2011 13 "model of Base. I plan to install 8 GB of RAM and use two monitors (one left) and the other on the right side of my MacBook. My question is this... Should what cables and ports I use?

Thank you

For 2 screens you need this.

(1) for the main screen, you need a Display port to HDMI adapter.

(2) for the second screen, you need a USB to HDMI adpater.

However, the USB adapter is not very sensitive. It is best to stick to 1 external display and the "Display port to HDMI adapter.

  • The use of multiple monitors with Fusion 3.0

    I wonder if there is a way to use the features of both monitors for the functions that are contained in the Fusion 3.0.  In other words, if I have Microsoft Word open on my MacBook Pro, I want to open the internet program that I run on IE8/Windows 7 on the other monitor.  I understand that I am running Virtual Office and that this is not a normal function.  I'm trying to find out if there are some products that will allow for this?

    It should work, as long as you:

    1. Have the tools installed and up-to-date

    2. Using XP or newer (some Linux distributions also work, but do you care no doubt thereon)

    3. Selected "View > use all displays full-screen" (if you are using full-screen). No changes are required for the mode of the unit.

  • view the desktop on multiple monitors

    I want to show 'my computer' multiple screens. I want to edit multiple disks hard drag/cut & paste and file. I want to have several windows open and drag the information on 1 hard drive and be able to see the other drives at the same time

    How can I achieve this. ?

    Hi Ron,

    Sorry for the late reply.

    To accomplish the task you want to do, you can open two windows explore one at a time and then move it to the second monitor.

    To open an another Windows Explorer, you can click on the Explorer icon on the taskbar and click on Windows Explorer. Who will open a second window of the Explorer. or when you use a window of Windows Explorer press on CTRL + N key on your keyboard to open another Explorer of Windows.

  • The use of multiple keyboards and mice on one computer?

    Is it possible to use separately the two keyboard, mouse and monitor with two operating system simultaneously on a single computer for different purposes?

    AMS

    Monitors and keyboards two mice are easy.  You need what is called a (material) KVM switch.

    To make the two BONES the easiest is to run a virtual machine of the other BONE inside your current operating system and put it on the second monitor

    The second step won't be easy

  • saving the settings for multiple monitors

    I have a laptop connected to an external monitor, and I use screens, as main external and portable like the wide screen display.  Every time I have away and anchor I lose all the display settings and have to redo.  Is there a way to save the day.

    Thank you

    Hi bitosa,

    This is more or less normal.  If you ever remove the portable computer from the docking station, he would remember the settings.  But given that you change your primary display to the external monitor (a bit like using only an external and by closing the lid on the laptop), when you restart your computer on the dock, he can't find where to view your desktop so it resets the LCD on the laptop (as opposed to only get a white screen).

    The only real solution I found is to use the laptop as the primary display device.  The ability to change the main screen is more designed for desktop systems which are never disconnected from the monitor. Brent

  • How to enable the use of multiple devices of cuda in Adobe AE?

    I had nvidia gtx 690 and nvidia gtx 760. They were both considered by the pilot 340.52 and we tick "use multiple GPU devices." Adobe AE CC 2014 so rendered was recognizing and using the two GPU devices. Then I replaced the gtx 690 with gtx 780Ti as a primary device. The driver does not have the option to use multiple devices and gpu in the AE preferences only the ti 780 is displayed.   When the don't return that this graphic card works. My question is how to use ti 760 & 780 two GPU in the rendering, as was the case with gtx 760 & 690?

    Thanks a lot for your help.

    Read the paragraph that begins with "If you have several installed GPU, GPU acceleration traced the beam 3D renderer will use the CUDA cores on each of them, as long as they are of the same level of CUDA computation" here:

  • Can I rely on the use of multiple Wait (ms) in parallel to start things at intervals delayed?

    Hello

    I'm doing four things in a loop timed hourly fixed after the first.  I did it with a timeout for each created an expectation (ms)

    I have attached a test VI, which I think is the equivalent of what I have.  This test works VI the way I thought it should.

    However, my VI with all sorts of other things, including the queues is not do.

    I would have thought that when the loop is started LabVIEW would start all possible things at once and it wouldn't need a sequence to ensure that various things at the right time.

    p.s. I tried Evan Prothro VI probes "millisecond" Timing and they seem to be wonderful, but I had a probe downstream another return to a time of 0:00:0.0, so I don't know if I've used them correctly.

    Any advice welcome.

    Not that I never use timed loops, but I know enough to read the help file when I'm bored!  This would, of course, the preferred method to establish the time relational constrants on sections of code.  Plus you get the beginning of ' what if ' late or end later come built in.

  • Use multiple monitors with Client view

    Hello

    Quick question regarding the use of multiple monitors when connecting via the customer to view. I have many users using a monitor with a zero multi configuration client and everything works as expected. When connecting via customer discovered however the Office extends on (i.e. Outlook stretches on left and right screens) two monitors instead of 'renewal' (i.e. the prospects on the left monitor, acrobat opens on the right). Everyone is aware of a fix for this?

    Thanks in advance.

  • Multiple monitors: VGA laptop to Westinghouse TV

    I have an Acer Apire 5920. My warranty has run out of earlier. I got a virus in August and had to do a full restore. I used the DVD of Windows XP instead of Vista which was OEM on my Acer when I bought it. Right now I have Win XP Home Edition 32 bit. I had to download all my drivers on the Acer site.

    My question:
    When I plug the VGA of the laptop and the TV it says no Signal on the TV. When I arrived at the display settings in the Properties menu I have only 1 screen. It says "display:" (default monitor) on
    It doesn't let me change to another. I think that I have an Intel graphics card.
    How can I activate the Multi monitor on my laptop?

    Hello E - Odc,

    Thank you for visiting the Microsoft answers community.

    If you had the opportunity before you install Windows XP and that you are not given a choice now, perhaps you have installed the incorrect drivers. I am not able to determine what you have installed on the Acer site.

    Also, here are some links that may be beneficial for you in the configuration of multiple screens.

  • 'VMware Workstation does not support the multiple monitors feature in other guests'

    When I click the icon "Cycle multiple monitors", I get the message "VMware Workstation does not support the multiple monitors feature in other guests."  Google found me no hits on it.  Anyone know what that means or how I could get multiple monitors to work?

    The host OS is Windows 7 Professional x 64 with service pack 1 applied.  The guest operating system is Debian Linux, version 8, also 64-bit.

    $ uname - a

    Linux debianvm 3.16.0 - 4-amd64 SMP 3.16.7 - ckt9-3 #1 ~ deb8u1 Debian (2015-04-24) x86_64 GNU/Linux

    The virtual machine was created with VirtualBox, then exported to a .ova file, then imported into VMware Workstation.  VMware Workstation is version 11.1.2 build-2780323.

    Hi Steve and welcome on VMware communities!

    With your virtual machine turned off the power, go into the settings of your virtual machine and on the Options tab, under general, select the client OS type: Linux > Debian 7 64-bit.  Then try to turn your virtual computer and see if it works.  (8 debian is quite close to Debian 7.)

    See you soon,.

  • Start bar begins on a bad office in a multiple monitor configuration.

    I have my Windows 7 Home Premium machine series upwards with two monitors extended desktop display. I'm having a problem where sometimes, when I restart the computer, the start menu begins on the secondary display even if the icons are correctly located on the main display. I have to disable the secondary display and reactivate to solve this problem. It's extremely annoying; y at - it a fix for this problem?

    Rather than the deactivation and reactivation of the secondary display, follow these steps:

    1 - Check that the second screen is defined as primary in the resolution options.

    2 - the next time you experience the misplaced taskbar, unlock the taskbar (by clicking on the right) and then dragging it to the correct location.  The taskbar will remember this post - that it cannot do when it is placed automatically during the installation of multiple monitors.
