By default the USB 3.0 Mini Dock Adapter will be setup as an extended display. To

change the display as a mirrored/cloned display, check the “Mirror Display” box on the

to an extended display, uncheck this option. To use both extended and mirrored

displays simultaneously, turn off mirroring then in the “Arrangement” page press and

hold the ‘cmd’ and ‘alt’ keys and drag and drop the display you wish to mirror over the

primary display (shown with the white bar). Repeat this with each display you wish to

mirror, all others will act as an extended display.

Changing the Primary Display

You can change which display is the primary display by moving the Menu Bar between

displays. Changing the primary display affects where new windows appear. To move

the Menu Bar, click the white menu bar and drag it to the display you wish to become

the primary.

Media Playback

can display media files and DVDs using a broad variety of media players, however in
