Dual Monitors

Dual monitor setups on OSX are exceedingly simple to setup. Actually, there is no set up involved. Simply grab the correct convertor type (typically VGA to mini-DVI) and plug the extra monitor into your Macbook or iMac.

Once this is done, OSX will detect the monitor automatically, set the resolution, and extend your desktop to the extra monitor. You can further customize your desktop by changing which monitor will have your toolbar and dock, mirroring the desktop so that both monitors display the same thing, and more.

Extending your desktop is just one of the easy ways to get OSX on your TV screen or get more screen real estate while working on big projects.

  1. Wow! That sounds awesome! I have a six monitor windows machine but you have to configure the monitors in the display settings. I guess it’s no big deal though. Once tehy are setup they stay that way. Great Post!
