MacBook How to Connect to Monitor & Mirror/Extend/Change Main Display

MacBook Pro 16 (and other Macs) how to connect to monitor and duplicate/mirror screen, extend and change the primary display.

Finally, a video where the guy makes sense and explains how to change the display and doesn't just plug in an HDMI and says "There, all done!"

Thank you. Yours is the only video I found thorough enough to explain the "white bar/main monitor" procedure. I watched dozens of time wasters. Even your title was helpful. Subscribed.

I love this. no fancy editing, but it was way more efficient and helpful than other videos that probably took 10 times as long to make.

I didn’t even have system Preferences, I had System Settings. And i had to search how to do this, was so different than your instructions..! My MacBook Pro is 2019, maybe it’s different from MacBook from MacBook?

What’s the short cut if your Retina display is broken on MacBook?

[dellub]

Amazing video! Clear and concise. Thank you for going straight to the point.

This is great! but the problem I have is that the resolution on the 2nd monitor is to large and distorted? I can't seem to fix the resolution on the 2nd monitor. :-(

Might sound dumb but I’m knew into this techy stuff but I have a monitor and MacBook but my question is can you be doing different things on each computer.?

[makuz]

Bro finally found a video where the MacBook is type usb C Thank you 🙏

[glenseaman]

Thank you for this! I have to stream off of my MacBook so getting my second monitor setup is gonna be a life saver!

[kelloentertainmentproducti]

Your video explanation is the best video I was searching for

[mikeybecerra]

What kind of monitor did you use or is this a basic principle for all monitors? Looking to get one for school
btw - Easiest video & has saved thousands of people from headaches

Thank You So much for that !! 🙏QUESTION: Do you know if we can do this with 2 macbook pro (i mean using the 2 screens of 2 MacBooks laptops instead of one macbook and one external monitor) ? If yes, HOW??
