Well I seem to have run into a problem which is all a bit odd. screen resolution can be set to several resolutions up to the native res for that screen.ĭisplay settings are found at: Apple Logo > System Preferences > Displays. Now, if the 2nd screen res is smaller than the powerbook's native res, then the PB will display that res.Ĭlamshell: with the lid closed, AC adapter plugged in, external keyboard & mouse in use, powerbook can act as a desktop machine. If you have a screen res of 1440 x 900 on the powerbook, that's what you'll get on the external screen, even if it's a bigger display that can do 1900 x 1200, for example. *Mirror Desktop*: Picture is the same on both screens, in the same resolution, reguardless of screen size. The dock, while set to the bottom of the screen, also only shows on the 1 screen.

The menubar can be set to appear on either screen, but not both. Eash screen should & can run at it's native resolution. *Extended Desktop*: stretches your desktop across 2 or more screens. I don't think there is an issue with the setup, you just may not be in the desired setup 🙂 If so, there are a few options available to you: Extended desktop mode, Mirrored desktop mode, & clamshell mode. I would like to use it now and then for the computer as well!įrom what I see you have the 2nd version of the Al powerbook, correct? Now I realise I am short of knowledge in this area, my Multi scann 220FX Trinitarian screen, an antique now, spoiled me by being faithful for so maybe to many years!Īny ideas welcome. This Powerbook G4 does not have a Analogue (15-pin D-sub VGA).Īlso if I get to the set the same size for size of my macbook screen 19', on the new screen, and everything goes over, yet it seems to click off an on at regular intervals!?

Now although I bought the other with intentions of putting media player on the end of it, in the interim (while I try and find out which media player I want) I hooked up my Powerbook G4- 5, 2 and I get a great screen full size desktop yet non of the files or or dock goes over. I am running the 24' off a G3 tower and it runs fine via Analogue (15-pin D-sub VGA).
