heya!
I have used Macs occasionally and recreationally for a while, but I am not a serious addict. I have bought a new MBP with the intention of fully moving over, and I am transitioning now. I have hit a few road blocks, and been able to solve most. But my biggest problem is using the MBP in clam mode.
I have the MBP closed, and I have an Anker 12-1 Thunderbolt 4 hooked in. This has two HDMI outs, and I have EACH of those hooked to a separate 24" 4K display. Both show images.... the SAME image though!
OK, so I know I SHOULD be able to go into "Display" and there SHOULD be tabs across the top, from which I choose what monitor goes where and all. But I do NOT get those tabs.... I just get a screen that shows my mac on the left and a choice for picking resolution (that effects BOTH monitors the same). And as I am writing this, I was going in to grab a screen shot to post here, and I get an error message (Could not load Displays preferences pane).
Any ideas what I can do?
Two other proglems I have, if you care to address them too:
1) How can I transfer my (Windows) iTunes library to the is new system? No more iTines!
2) I SERIOUSLY underbought storage on this. I only got a TB, and I think I need 2, which means I probably should have 4. Is this something that Apple will work with me on? Who should I contact?
