Hi Victoria

I don't have OS X and I don't know what a Cinema Display is, but 
software programs usually open in what the developer perceives as being 
center screen. If the program makes documents, then new documents also 
usually open center screen. But, if you make any changes, the document 
records them and opens the same way it was previously closed. If you 
want documents to always open center screen, then I believe you have two 
choices. Don't move a new document, or manually place it in the center 
of the screen before closing it. If the Cinema Display has a different 
setup than regular??? screens, you may have no choice but to manually 
place it, then close it. It should then open where you placed it.

Hope this helps
