    2020 iMac 27in as a secondary display using Universal Control?

    Hi I currently have a 14in Macbook Pro and have been thinking about getting a secondary display for a while now. I learned about how scaling works in macOS and seems like a 5K display is the one to target. Unfortunately there aren't a lot of options out there, with the Studio Display being out...

    How can I get my Mac to properly identify my monitor?

    I had a Dell U2415 attached to my Mac Pro via 4K HDMI KVM, and I replaced it with an ASUS PA278QV monitor with 2560 x 1440 resolution. However, I only get the resolutions of the Dell U2415, for the Mac misidentifies this new monitor as the old Dell. How can I fix this?
