My big problem is my Mac now doesn't remember which screen my windows are on after a sleep.
Most of them, sure, but there is often a several minute session of moving things to where they're supposed to be.
Only me?
- hedgehog 4y agoI have quite a few complaints but that particular thing works fine for me.
- acdha 4y agoI’ve never seen that. Is your monitor directly connected or via a dock? I had a coworker who had a dock resetting on sleep so it was basically doing a full disconnect, sleep, wake, connect cycle causing the windows to go single-monitor. I’d also recommend using one of the hot key apps to set window positions since it makes that transition a lot faster.
- lerp 4y agoNot only you. In my case I had 2 identical monitors both attached to USB-C-to-DisplayPort cables on a 2019 MacBook Pro, and the left and right monitors would swap daily. Fortunately my monitors also had USB-C input; switching one monitor to USB-C-to-USB-C and leaving the other USB-C-to-DisplayPort seems to make the screen ordering mostly more stable. However the OS still moves all windows to the left monitor weekly, so it's not fully working.
- BurningFrog 4y agoInteresting. I do have two identical big monitors attached to the laptop. I'll look into using different cables.
