Why don't I have the screen resolution I used to have on my iMac 2400.

I used to have several screen resolutions on my iMac 2400, now I only have two, 1920 X 1200 and 960 X 600.
Because I am a senior, my eyes need a resolution that provides clarity and is not too small. 960 X 600
prevents me from using Microsoft Office because I cannot select all of the options i.e. when I want to
print because the options are beyond the window and I cannot access them. 1920 X 1200 is too small
for my senior eyes.
Please update the graphics driver with the resolutions I used to have. More and more
seniors use computers and the younger developers need to understand this otherwise
they will switch to PCs.
Thank you

Why don't photos fill the screen on iPhone5

My screen has black bars on each end when viewiing photos; also in Safari. Why?

The iPhone 5 camera resolution is 3,264 x 2,448 on a retina display. This is 1:1,33 or 4/3. As it was.
Is not changed because of the new 16/9 screen.

You must have had find my iPhone on, or it was locked by your phone carrier.
Call your our cell carrier first.
then log on to a computer to iCloud to erase your iPhone.
NOW... You will be able to setup with a backup.

Why does my maximised app window appear a different size to the screen resolution?

First: I'm a beginner with windows programming, fumbling my way through visual studio and C# (my background is C with console applications)... sorry if this is a naive question!
Short story: When I create a window of the same size as the screen resolution. My app window is ~20% larger than my device's screen. Why is this happening?
Long story: I'm attempting to develop an application with a fixed size window and absolute positioning of UI elements. The application will only ever run at a fixed resolution, on a single device, borderless/non-resizeable and full-screen. The resolution
of the display on which it will run is 1280x800 (according to the device specs and resolution reported by the windows control panel) . However, when I create a window of this size, it is too large to fit onscreen. In fact, I have to create a window 1024x640
(0.8x screen resolution) for it to perfectly fit the screen. Anyone know why this is happening?
Thanks!

It sounds like you are running in a high-DPI mode but your app is not DPI aware and is getting virtualized. Windows will tell the app it's running at 96 DPI and then embiggen the rendered window so it ends up at the user's requested zoom level.

Reboot your router. The icon only shows when connected to wifi and Apple TV or similar device. Same thing happened with my phone and the icon appeared in control center after router reboot.

The screen resolution in 1920x1200 dropped on my MacBook Pro 17". Seems like I have not the same pixels. There are also vertical, thin lines on the screen. Makes the screen look milky. Anybody knows what's going on and how to fix it?

Take it to an Apple Store or other service provider for testing.

WhyWontThisWork:
I can definitely how frustrating it must be to not be able to take pictures or even view pictures that have already been taken with your LG Dare.
Since this problem has started, have you tried to either:
a.) put that memory card in an alternate phone to see if the pictures can be viewed on there
b.) use a card reader/adapter in a computer to see if the pictures can be viewed on the computer
c.) take the memory card out of the phone and then try to take a picture?
What I am trying to determine is which of the 2 is defective (phone or memory card)
If you are able to view pictures in another phone, or on the computer , then you may have a bad card. If that is the case, you can transfer the pictures to the computer and then format the memory card by
Note: This procedure will erase all data on the memory card. It is recommended to back up the data.
From the home screen, touch the menu tab.
Touch Settings.
Touch SD card & phone storage.
Touch Unmount SD card.
Touch Format SD card.
Once you have done the formatting, try to take pictures again. If you continue to have problems it more than likely is the phone.
Also, in order to access PixPlace, log into your MyVerizon account, at the top, you should see "Messaging" go down to "Manage your photo albums" once there, you should see "My Media", however, if you have already received a message advising you that your album would be deleted if you haven't logged on in more than 180 days, all pictures have then most definitely been deleted. Again, we do send warning messages once the online album hasn't been accessed in 150, 175, 180 days respectively prior to deletion.

Why don't we get the choice to have an app or not

Why do we not get the choice wether or not to have icons for app? The YouTube, game center, and the video icons just take up space and I never use them. We should have the option wether or not to keep them. I understand that you either own the companies or have partnered with them but you should not force your customers to keep the icons on their iPad and iPhones.
Please give us the choice.
Other than that I love the iPad but now that I am using it for school, I need the space as much as possible.
Thanks,

You can always move them to a different screen, or, as you're on iOS 4.2, you can put them into a lesser used folder so that they are less visible.

Why is it when using my iPhone 4s front camera, the screen sometimes turn black or have blue stripes on it? What's wrong with it and what should I do?

When using my iPhone 4s front camera, the screen sometimes become black or have blue stripes on it! Is this a hardware or software problem? Can this issue be covered by my warranty? I bought it inmid-december last year, and this problem came at around Late January. It's a rare case, only came about 5 times, but this really concerns me. What's wrong with it? Thank you so much for your concern.

thank you for your reply
I brought it to the store and they agreed to give me an exchange. thank goodness!

They wanted me to register, so I registered (as my old apple ID) and then they asked if I want to restore backup, I did that too. after the restore back up process, the only things that aren't there were my music and apps! what should I do to get them into my new iPhone?

Why does opening iTunes cause my screen resolution to change automatically?

Recently opening iTunes started automatically changing my screen resolution. When I close iTunes the screen resolution reverts back to normal. Does anyone now why this is happening or how I can make it stop? I am also unable to view my music library, ipod and contents, paylists etc.... in a column on the left side of iTunes like I used to be able to do. Any help with that issue?

I have tha same problem on the same Mac with CS6 Design Standard.
And I don't know how repair it.
Maybe does it happen for the switching of the graphic card from Intel HD to Nvidia GeForce?

I can't change the screen resolution no matter what i do

Suddenly i found the screen resolution unsatisfactory so i tried to change it and there were two displays to choose between in display option. as the pictures shows the first display has only two resolution options and the second has many but no matter what i choose and click on apply/ok it doesn't change unless i click on 'Extend my Windows' and it doesn't really change it only changes the resolution option
Edit : i don't know why the pictures didn't show up but here is the link to the 2 pictures :

Is there any way to change the screen resolution in Front Row?

Hi all,
I've got a Mac Mini plugged in to my TV, and I want to be able to change the screen resolution depending on the content I'm watching (as some content is in 4:3 aspect ratio, some is in 16:9, and I'd prefer to have the picture filling the screen completely). Unfortunately, the TV doesn't have a "stretch" mode for making an 4:3 picture fit a 16:9 aspect ratio. If I know what I want to watch in advance, I can set the resolution accordingly using system prefs on the mac, but if I'm just sitting back choosing what to watch with the Apple Remote, it's annoying to have to leave front row, walk over to the computer and change resolution once I've decided what to watch, open system prefs, change resolution, re-launch Front Row and find what I wanted to watch again.
So I was wondering if anyone had figured a way to allow the screen resolution to be switched from within the FrontRow UI. I've seen that people have written python based plug-ins such as PyeTV and Understudy that allow different types of content to be added to FrontRow, but I've not found any utility plug-ins such as what I'm looking for on the net (nor could I find SDK documentation on this API in the stuff that comes with XCode).
I guess the other approach might be quick keys: has anyone had any success hooking up quick keys macros alongside front row in response to apple remote events? (seems too few events to be able to choose from, but I've never tried it, so I won't assume!) Or how about is there a way to trigger an AppleScript from within Front Row? And, of course, I'm very open to any other ideas you might have!
Thanks very much in advance for any ideas on this.

After using Image Capture and watching a video, the screen resolution changes

Hello,
Normally the colors of my screen are clear; The top ruler of each window is grey.
But after scanning a color document, the color is pale. As if someone changed the screen resolution.
Is this a common problem?
My former Macbook Pro died because of a problem with the video system, a default acknowledged by Apple that they didnt want to repair under warranty anymore.
Does this ring a bell?
Today, the colors quickly became normal again, but I'd like to make sure it ' s not going to become a serious problem.
Maybe this sounds kind of vague, well if anyone has something constructive to say about this, please do.
thanks

When you decided to not copy the files into the iPhoto Library Folder you took responsibility for File Management. iPhoto does not touch your file structure. Therefore, when you delete a photo from iPhoto you have to delete it from your file structure by hand.
This is not the case if you let iPhoto do the File Management.
There is no way to get iPhoto to find the pics you have deleted from it but which remain in your file structure. In the future, you could Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected. You can then delete it from there, and after delete it from iPhoto.
BTW, many people hold on to their own file structure because they feel that they will be unable to find a pic in the Finder, should they need it for uploading or emailing. There are three ways (at least) to get files from the iPhoto Window.
1. Drag and Drop: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
2. File -> Export: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, this produces a copy.
3. Show File: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.

URGENT: How to fix an application with the screen resolution?

HI everyone,
I am desprate and need help.. I have developed an application with Java swing and awt (JFrames, JPanels and...). This application displays perfectly with 1280 x 1024 screen resolution but in a situation where the screen does not support this resolution, a part of my application will not appear. I can not even scroll down to see the reste of the components. Does any one has any idea that how I can resolve this problem! I mean how either I can make my JFrame or panel to scroll down or to change the size of the components according to the resolution!
Thank you very much and wait for a reply :)

One of the possible reason of the problem is you must have hardcoded the size of panels and other container that is just right for the screen resolution 1280 x 1024.
The solution is set the size of the containers that depends on the resolution of the screen.
You have not explained much detail about the scrolling problem. But I suppose that you have a scrollpane in you GUI and you want to scroll the component inside it even at another resolution.
try using this
if p is the panel that is added in the scrollpane then set its prefered size.
p.setPreferredSize(resolution dependant size).

Why don't I have the screen resolution I used to have on my iMac 2400.
