[QUOTE="bobtomay, post: 969521, member: 24160"] You are in what is commonly called 'extended desktop' mode with 2 individual screens. Open up System Preferences - Displays - Appearance tab and put a check in 'Mirror displays' at the bottom left of the window. You'll now have the same thing on both screens. In extended desktop, you can make the TV your primary while it is connected with menu bar and dock. On that same Appearance tab you'll see a small window with a depiction of the 2 screens. One has a white bar across the top. Drag and drop that white bar to the other screen and watch what happens. You can also rearrange the position of the 2 screens. This will affect the side of the screen you need to travel with the mouse to move the cursor between screens. For the sound issue, I'll need the model # of the TV. [/QUOTE]
