Using a Macintosh with an External Display or Projector
Q. How can I get an external monitor or projector to work with my Macintosh laptop?
A.
If you are using a Macintosh Laptop with OS 9.x or earlier:
- From the Apple menu, select Control Panels, click Monitors and Sound.
- Click the Arrange icon, and then drag one monitor on top of the other.
Note: If the arrange icon isn't available, you may need to select one of the
Simulscan resolution settings. Click the monitor icon and then select a
Simulscan resolution from the ones in the Resolution box. (Allow a few
seconds for the projector to sync up after making the selection.)
If you are using a Macintosh Laptop with OS X:
- Select System Preferences from the Apple Menu and Click Displays.
- Click Detect Displays.
- To display the entire desktop on both your projector screen and LCD
screen, click the Arrange Tab.
- Click Mirror Displays in the lower corner of the screen. One of the
monitor icons automatically moves on top of the other.
