Cover flow window size keeps changing

As you can see to the images below, iTunes suddenly started to changing my cover flow size every time I restart it.

Before 2-3 days I never had this issue. How can I make my cover flow sixe remain the same every time I open iTunes?

Here's something I've noticed:
1. When I uninstalled Dockstar, all problems went away. There's definitely something going on here.
2. When I reinstalled Dockstar, I am now only having problems with Mail remembering that one of my mailboxes is set to "organize by thread." (I had this problem before in addition to the window resizing). However, the window resizing problem seems to be gone (for today, at least).
Here's what's different:
1. I installed GrowlMail after they updated to a 64bit preference pane. (Not sure how this would impact it, but who knows...)
2. Last time, I just installed the newest copy of Dockstar over the old one. This time, I uninstalled the old one and reinstalled Dockstar cleanly.
Do you feel like verifying if this is true for you too?

Mail Window Size Keeps Changing

I've had this erratic bug ever since upgrading to snow leopard:
I generally keep mail open, and just have the window closed, and let DockStar do some work in terms of notifications.
Problem is that my window size keeps on changing. When I click on the mail icon to open it up (I always resize to full screen), the mail program opens up in a very small window, probably about 500x600. Sometimes it opens in full screen as I want, other times it opens to this minimized view.
It is very hard to exactly reproduce, but happens probably 1/4 to 1/5 of the time at least.
The problem with this is that it also resizes the left panel so EVERY TIME I open it up, I have to resize both the window and the left bar panel.
I found a complaint that sounded similar that had the user remove the preference file, then recreate it, but this hasn't solved the problem.
Anyone else have this problem? Anyone know how to fix it?!?!

Mail Signature: image size keeps changing to fit window

When adding a logo image to a signature in mail, the image is not remaining the same size, it changes in size semingly to fit the width of the window that the email happens to be in. Mostly the image is showing larger than the window itself. We are having this problem on imac (snow leopard) and brand new macbook pro (mountain lion). I have tried using PNG and JPEG files but both have the same problem. Older signatures (2 years old) show the image correctly keeping it the same size. Any advice muchly appreciated : )

I worked it out in the end - I had 2 things too big in my image settings; the canvas size (which was 14cm long!) and he DPI (which was 300dpi) I have since changed to approx 8cm long and 100DPI and it now displays the logo in the signature without increasing the size of it to fit the size of the window. My only issue now is trying to get the image to still show in the reply thread, so that when you look down the email conversation you can see the logo in each of the previous email signatures. This one is stumping me!

Expanding Cover Flow window in Finder

Is there a modifier key that can be held down when expanding a Cover Flow enabled Finder window so that the list of files expands instead of having the Cover Flow images get larger?
I've tried the usual Option+Click, Shift+Click, etc. but nothing seems to work.
Assuming this functionality ISN'T built into the OS, is there hope for adding it in a future update?
Thanks.
Enjoy..............G

Ah... that'll be it then, they are 512 x 512. well i guess that bugs been hanging around for quite some time now, anyone got any ideas if anyone's trying to fix it? i guess making 128 x 128 icons wouldn't be the end of the world but it does seem like a step backwards.
one thing that still confuses me... an icon file contains icons of all sizes, why does cover flow not select the right size icon to display?
thanks for that info V.K., much obliged.
regards, Pablo.

Cover flow - default size

hello sorry if this was answered already.
All I want is to make cover flow, do what it did in the past versions of itunes.
Which is to keep the default size after resizing. It always did it before but hasn't been doing it for the past few versions. Does anyone know the answer?
And yes I know how to resize, I want to know how to keep that new size as default.
itunes customer services didn't understand that part however =D
thx

does anyone else know anything? thx
One weird cool thing at the least is the only one from apple that is contacting me back is someone from itunes store customer service, even though its not there dept. The most weirdest part was itunes store was the only place I found to finally email apple for a program problem. I hope they fix that in the future.

Window size always changes after restart in 10.9.2. How can I fix it- as in older OS-Versions?

Hi,
I'm using OSX for a long time. Now I bought a new MBA 10' with Mavericks 10.9.2. I'm really tired about ever changing window sizes after restarting my MBA, espacialy the sidebar is skipping to a wider size, then the window, I used before turning the mac of. No window opens, in exact that size I used before. Of course, I used to fix it, but never menaged to do so.
Have you any idea to solve my problem?

Do you uncheck the "Reopen windows when logging back in?" box? If so, does the issue occur when you leave the box checked?
That might be the culprit.
I hope I solved your question.

Dock size keeps changing?

I always set dock size the smallest. But it keeps changing so that it's slightly bigger than the smallest. Why is it changing all by itself?

I guess no one knows.

Cover flow full size

Yet another version of iTunes (11.0.3) and still there is no cover flow function available.
I find it almost unreal how Apples developers can take away such an important functionality - to obviously many users - and persist to do so, release after release.
I guess I have not yet discovered the other flaws and bugs with this new release (11.0.3) that many of you mention in other discussions but my greatest sorrow will always be the loss of the cover flow. All the time and effort I have put in to get the right resolution of my artwork...
I always used to have the cover flow in full size as my default image on iTunes.

I believe you mean the slide show. select some items in Finder (in any view not just coverflow) and enter commandoptiony. this will get you to the slideshow view. you can also use Quicklook by hitting the space bar.

Screen size keeps changing

That's suspiciously like 'Boiler Plate Text'. Did you have to pay Station royalties? ;-) Actually, it is rather better than the version Ramon wheels out. I think I'll grab the link for my big page of ready forum responses. :-)
Possible reasons a window would change size
Ctrl or Alt Spacebar and left click drag (standard zoom feature)
or my best guess, he has Zoom with mouse wheel check in General preferences. This operates completely by itself, (no other key needed) so would be very easy to make happen unintentionally.

Page size keeps changing between pages based on browser zoom

I recently started designing a web page for a golf league. I designed my main page (index.html) and have it laid out all nice and neat with 9 divs (outer, wrapper, logo, social media, topnav, banner, content, rightside, footer). My main page has horizontal navigation links near the top of the page for 7 different pages (Home, Course, Events, History, Statistics, About, Contact). I created 6 blank html files for the other 6 pages and then created and applied the template from my main (Home) page to the other 6 pages.
All the pages are laid out perfectly and everything seems fine. However, when I view the web pages and use the zoom on my mouse (CTRL + Mousewheel), it only remembers the zoom level for the current page that I'm on. NOTE: FYI, I'm viewing all of these pages offline, which I assume might be the problem.
For example, if I'm on my main page and zoom in, then click the "Events" link, it switches to the Events page, but doesn't have the same zoom level. These zoom levels also seem to be saved (to my browser, not the dreamweaver code), because when I close the browser and reopen it to the web page, it remembers the previous zoom settings.
I just started building a web page a few days ago and don't have a published web page as I haven't selected a host yet, but plan to when I know how what exactly I need in terms of size. All the web pages I've been viewing are on my hard drive. Is that why the zoom is not consistent across all my pages? To clarify, if I zoom all the way in on my home page, then click "Events", the Events page won't necessarily be zoomed all the way in, it will be at the same zoom level as the last time I viewed it.
I just want to know if this issue will go away when I actually publish my page to the internet and view it on the web? If not, I'd like to tackle the problem now before I publish it because this site has to be professional since we're holding a big charity event in the fall with a major and well known charity and celebrity.
Thanks in advance for any help!

You're not using frames or framesets are you?
In which browsers are you testing your site?
My experience in Firefox, Chrome & IE9 is that Ctrl++ (zoom) remains constant until I change it.

Why does the character size keep changing to extreme small on the home page?

With the new Firefox downloaded the character type changes to extremely small print every time I go away from the home page. I then have to reset it to larger print. With old Firefox the print size remained as I set it all the time.

You didn't restore the device as new before you began using it. Do so now, and use your own Apple ID & password from now on.
Go to Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content & Settings.
Then, in the Setup Assistant, use only your own information.

Save as window size keeps going back to the default size. I need it to stay the size I set it at so I can read the end of the file name.

.When I save a file in Photoshop, I save for web and devices. It gives you the first window which I always just hit enter. Then it gives you a second window to name the file and where to put it. The problem I’m having is that’s it’s not remembering I want the window bigger and I can’t see the whole name of the file. I need to see the end of the file name so I know what to save the next file as. I can scroll or make the window bigger again but that is too time consuming when I’m trying to do hundreds of them a day.
I'm using Photoshop CS4 on a Mac running Yosemite.

Lion icon sizes keep changing

So ever since upgrading to Lion I have been having a weird issue with my file icons. Essentially, I have certain files in certain folders set to be certain sizes, and with Snow Leopard there were no issues. Now, however, the file icon sizes seem to change on their own. For example, I will resize 5 folders of files to be 24. When I come back to said folders, some of them will still be set to 24, while others will be set back to 128. This seems to happen at complete random, and I have noticed no pattern to their changing. Some files will stay the way I size them, some won't, some will for a while and then they will resize, etc.
What is the deal with this?

Hi,
Did you mean you would like to use the same view for all folders besides folders in Documents?
If so, you can open Folder option when you are at your Document folder, and under View tab, choose
Apply to folders:

Safari window-size is changing

Hi there!
I've got the problem, that my Safari window is getting thinner, if I close it down and open it later on. But this is only happening sometimes. Don't know what this should be...
This is from the begin on; since I bought my Mac.
Thanks in advance!
Mac Mini (Mid '11, 256MB GDDR5 Model)
OS X Lion (10.7.2) (11C74)
Safari 5.1.2 (7534.52.7)

Unfortunately there is no Folder called "com.apple.Safari" in /Library/Caches/ ... :-/
If you look at my prior post again I typed:   ~/Library
~ (Tilde) character represents the Home folder.
For Lion:   To find the Home folder in OS X Lion, open the Finder, hold the Option key, and choose Go > Library
There are two libraries. One is root /Library the other your home folder ~/Library
Try this... open the Finder. From the menu bar at the top of your screen click Go > Go to Folder
Type this in exactly as you see it here:   ~/Libary/Cache/com.apple.Safari
Then click Go.
The Cache.db file is in the com.apple.Safari folder.

My finder window backgound keeps changing back to white after I restart

I know this is only aesthetic but I like to differentiate each finder window (all in icon view) with a different background, photo, unusual color,e.g., I have a shelf background for my application window, a photo background for my photo window, etc. So why the heck doesn't it retain my background preference after I restart the computer?

Please help! It is bothering me a lot!
