Hi Guys

is there a setting or anything to fix this?

It is impossible. The MacBook Airs are limited to one external display only.
 
You bought the wrong type of dock if you want dual external displays.
 
You need to find an adapter that can support MacBook Air to connect two external monitors.
 
As others have noted the MacBook Air natively supports only 1 monitor. There are third party solutions. Some require you download extra display drivers, this one does not. It’s pricy but plug and play and is a full dock.


I use it for work, web browsing and documents.. works fine. I don’t know about games.
