Q: Mac Mini w/ dual displays, primary and secondary
I have a Mac Mini with dual displays... Thunderbolt adaptor-VGA out and an HDMI out. I need the Thunderbolt-VGA display to be my primary. But each time I plug in the HDMI display, it becomes my primary. When I go into System Preferences -> Displays, then Arrangements, then Gather Windows... I see both displays, but the HDMI always appears as primary. Re-arranging does not seem to do any good. Reboots happen in the HDMI display, every time. Does anyone know how to change this, so that my Thunderbolt-VGA display becomes my primary?
Mac mini, OS X Mavericks (10.9.5), primary vs secondary displays

Problem solved. Under "Arrangements"... click on each display... red box will appear to designate display. Then, just move the white bar (menu bar) to the display you want to be primary. Simple... if you know the answer.
