10.9.2 2nd monitor fix
I called apple today 3/3/14
I got a great guy.
MacPro 2.66 Nehalem 8 core
I updated 5 days ago from 10.9.1 to 10.9.2 as soon as it was complete my 23" apple display stopped working (this is my main display).
I use an acer 22" as a 2nd display this continued to work. My hunch was that it was the update.
I tried switching the 2 montiors (no good).
I hooked up a 17" viewsonic and after 3 restarts it worked.
I tried hooking up the 23" again no good.
Then I tried a boot drive with 10.8.5 and the 23" worked again.
So it was the update.
I called Apple today 3/3/14 and got a great senior tech he had me do a "SMC"
I worked!! got my 23" back.
How to do a "SMC"
1. shut down completely
2. unhook the DVI cabel
3. unplug the computer
4 hold the power button in for 30 seconds then wait 10 sec to plug everything back in.
Good luck everyone
MacBook Pro, OS X Mavericks (10.9.2)
