  • Nov 03, 2009  When you connect with RDC, your desktop will be resized to fit your Mac's display, possibly mitigating the need for two monitors to begin with. Like some posters above, I RDC from my 24' iMac to my work computer (Windows XP with dual-19' displays).
  • If you can live with those restrictions, you can enable multi-monitor support in the 'Window Mode' settings of your RDP connections. First, select 'Open connection in' - 'Full Screen', then set the 'Display' to 'All available Displays (Multi-Monitor)'.
  • Oct 01, 2018  Microsoft RDP client for Mac does not currently support dual displays for Windows 7 Pro targets. Windows 7 Pro will support multiple monitors but only from the Windows mstsc.exe command line. You invoke the session using the mstsc command line using the /span option. You have to have two displays, locally, that are running at the same resolution.
  • Jun 04, 2014  I have not run Remote Desktop in a while but I used to run it on dual screens under Mountain Lion. I suspect you'll need to switch back to the ML method of handling multiple displays - go to menu System Preferences Mission Control and uncheck 'Displays have separate Spaces'. That lets both displays be part of the same 'Space', so that you can bridge across them with the Remote Desktop.
  • Check the ports on your Mac to find out whether you need an adapter.
  • Check how many displays your Mac supports: Choose Apple menu  > About This Mac, click Support, then click Specifications. On the webpage that appears, the number of displays your Mac supports appears under Video Support.

Use extended desktop mode

Mac Microsoft Remote Desktop 12

Maximize your workspace with extended desktop mode, which lets you enjoy full-screen apps and windows on each monitor. Then, use Mission Control to organize apps and windows across your displays. If your Dock is on the bottom of your screen, it appears on any of your displays when you move your pointer to the bottom edge of your display.

Turn on extended desktop mode

  1. Make sure that your external display is turned on and connected to your Mac.
  2. Choose Apple menu  > System Preferences, then click Displays.
  3. Click the Arrangement tab.
  4. Make sure that the Mirror Displays checkbox isn’t selected.

Arrange your displays or change your primary display

So that you can move apps and windows across your displays in one continuous motion, arrange your displays to match the setup on your desk. You can also change your primary display, which is where your desktop icons and app windows first appear.

Desktop
  1. Choose Apple menu  > System Preferences, then click Displays.
  2. Click the Arrangement tab.
  3. To change the position of a display, drag it to the desired position. A red border appears around the display as it's moved.
  4. To set a different display as the primary display, drag the menu bar to the other display.

Use video mirroring

With video mirroring, all of your displays show the same apps and windows.

Turn on video mirroring

  1. Make sure that your external display is turned on and connected to your Mac.
  2. Choose Apple menu  > System Preferences, click Displays, then click the Arrangement tab.
  3. Make sure that the Mirror Displays checkbox is selected.

Use AirPlay

With Apple TV, you can mirror the entire display of your Mac to your TV, or use your TV as a separate display. To turn on AirPlay, follow these steps:

  1. Make sure that your TV is turned on.
  2. Choose in the menu bar, then choose your Apple TV. If an AirPlay passcode appears on your TV screen, enter the passcode on your Mac.
  3. Mirror your display or use your TV as a separate display:
    • To mirror your display, choose , then choose Mirror Built-in Display.
    • To use your TV as a separate display, choose , then choose Use As Separate Display.
  4. To turn off AirPlay, choose , then choose Turn AirPlay Off.

Discus and support Remote desktop and multiple monitors in Windows 10 in Windows 10 Network and Sharing to solve the problem; In common with many others I was horrified to find that Windows 7 pro, which advertised support for RDP, did not support multiple monitors. I needed.. Discussion in 'Windows 10 Network and Sharing' started by TTT, Aug 21, 2015.

My Mac's resolution is 1680X1050, and the full screen remote desktop session after the updateis 1680X1046. Now I don't get the same resolution as my Mac's desktop for the remote session. The previous version of Remote Desktop would establish a 1680x1050 session to exactly match the resolution of my mac.The 'fix' made MS Remote Desktop unusable for me. Microsoft remote desktop 10 mac black screen. The remote application I need to run has to have a EXACTLY 1680x1050, or things become very skewed. It looks like to fix in 8.0.32 for this issue caused another problem.
