[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1906911, member: 396914"] You have gone one click too far. When you first open System Preferences/Display, you should see something like this: [ATTACH type="full"]35880[/ATTACH] That shows from my MBP, the screen of the MBP on the left and my LG monitor on the right. The screens are aligned so the tops match because that is how I prefer it. To change the relationship, Click/hold on one and drag it to where you want it to "meet." Note that the mouse pointer only moves between the screens where they touch, so to move from the LG to the MBP in my setup, I need to have the mount in the top 3/4 of the screen when I move to the left or it gets stuck at the edge of the display. So, in the first image you posted, drag/drop the one you want to move. I would suggest at a minimum dragging the monitor on the left down to maximize the overlap at the edges. Also, in the second image you posted the "Use As" defines what used to be mirroring. I have my MBP screen as the "Main Display" and my LG as "Extended display." The third option in the Use As: box is "Mirror for..." So, instead of turning off Mirroring, you just don't select "Mirror for.." and you are good to go. [/QUOTE]
