3rd Monitor not working.

Trying to add an additional monitor. I’ve already got one. But for some reason it’s not detecting it. I’ve held the option button in displays but when I click detect nothing happens. Help!?!

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 11.4

Third Monitor won't detect after 12.6.2 I just applied the update to 12.6.2. I had two additional monitors and now after the installation is complete, only the first one will detect. The curiously hidden 'Detect Displays' button in the System Preferences->Displays menu does not detect the missing monitor.
