Hi,

My wife has a Macbook Pro and just got a Cinema Display. Is there a way somewhere where you can specify whether an app opens up on the laptop display or the external display?

Is there also a way to set the external monitor to be the main display be default when it is plugged in?



Thanks.

hmm.. don't know about the first one.

but for the second one open up display preferences and go to arrangement, you should see both monitors. There is a menu bar in the macbook pro screen, click the menu bar and drag it to the cinema display. The cinema display will now be the primary screen when ever it is attached.
