Zoom in Permanently?

I have a lovely 27" display and Safari defaults to a very small font size and as my eyes need thicker reading glasses,  "Command +" two or three times and it's the way I want it.
The problem is that I have to do this for every page.  Some have suggested Prefs>Appearance>Select font/size  but it does nothing! I want the page to zoom, not just the font.  Using Univesal access zooms the whole screen not just the Safari page.
I've sent this in as a "bug" to apple. I don't think they have this on their priority list d;^D.....
I just tried calling and they don't even have Saturday hours at Apple"Care"!  I guess all that cash in the bank can't be spent on hiring a weekend crew as they get more market share. (Was it OS7 or 6 that Apple had 24 hours support?) A few more jobs in North America Mumbai to help the economy!
Sorry about the dig: Apple, you make some good products and I've brought many PC users in but my guess is there is not a single user (stockholders excluded) that wouldn't like more suppport.
Any other ideas in the community, as we are now called?!
Thanks. David

  • Touchpad zoom disable permanently

    I want to disable pinch zoom for synaptics touchpad permanently, as it's too sensitive and changes zoom when two fingers are over the touch pad. I have disabled it configuration->Mouse and tactil panel->additional configuration->clickpad configuration->pich zoom. But after restarting windows, the configuration is active again.

    Did you find Synaptics Clickpad in Control Panel? That is where all settings are for the touchpad.

  • Zoom function permanently on?

    Now it may have been like this for some time and I only noticed it today. If I use the key combination Command and either + or - my screen zooms in? Checking in Universal Access I found that Zooming was turned on so I turned it off, but it is still on. So I re-booted and checked Universal Access and it said zooming was off but it is not, using the key combination Command and either + or - and the image zooms? So it would appear my zoom function is permanently on.
    Am I going nuts?
    Phil

    Hi Phillip,
    Are you certain that what's happening is actually "zooming" and not making the text bigger (or smaller) which is an entirely different thing.
    The keyboard shortcut for making text bigger is Command+"=". You'll notice that the "=" sign is on the same key as the "+" sign. For making text smaller the keyboard shortcut is Command+"-"
    Also, to zoom you will need to press Command + Option + 8 to activate it (this is the keyboard shortcut to doing it from Universal Access) and then CommandOption+"" to zoom in and CommandOption"-" to zoom out.

  • How to fix pages zoom level permanently in FF8 ?

    I have 15,6 " laptop with Full-HD resolution. Therefore, by default all text is too small to read. In Windows 7 and in IE there is a possibility to set zoom to 125% permanently, and this fixes the problem.
    In FireFox the text becomes readable if I click CTRL+ two times. But this CTRL+ affects either to one tab or to one website only. But how can I permanently fix this zoom level (CTRL+ two times) in FireFox for forever ?

    You can use 1 of these add-ons :

  • Permanent zoom level within Reading pane

    Folks
    I found a way to set the zoom level permanent if one opens an email message in its own window. However, I can't find anything for the reading pane. Does anybody know how to set the reading pane to 110% for all messages, even if close and open Outlook?

    Thx

    Hi,
    We can not make the zoom change permanently for Reading Pane on Outlook side, but you can try to find some third-party add-in to achieve the goal.
    As a workaround, we can convert HTML messages to Plain Text and then customize the font size for Plain Text messages. For more information, please refer:

    Hope this helps.

  • Searching icon home screen always working

    on my iPhone 6, when i am on the icon screen, next to the wifi identifier i see a little circle that rotates.  Generally it means that it is searching for something.  It never stops.  The minute i go into a program or lock the phone, it goes away.  I reset the network settings and that seemed to do the trick, but 2 days later it started up again.  I am not sure what it is looking for.  I went so far as to completely turn off location services and background app refresh (at the same time) yet it still does it.
    I do notice that the phone drains battery a lot more than my old iPhone 4 no OS6 did. I also notice that cell reception is not as good as my iPhone 4.  At my desk i used to get 3 bars, now i get 1 or 2 if i am lucky.  Places in my office where i used to be able to get calls, now do not work at all.  I am not sure if it is the phone or my carrier.
    Any ideas?

  • How can I make a permanent change in the zoom level?

    I want to know how I can make a permanent change is the zoom level? I dont want to constantly have to change it from the default value of 100% every time I go to a different page. Thanks.

    Hello,
    You can also use the [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2592/ NoSquint] add-on to change the default zoom level for all websites at once. After setting your global zoom level, you can fine-tune the zoom on individual sites and set the options so that NoSquint remembers per-site settings.
    After installing NoSquint, go to the add-ons page to set the per-site settings:
    * Tools (or [[Image: New Fx Menu]]) > Add-ons > Extensions
    * Click the "Options" button by NoSquint

  • I like the mail feature with one exception; I cannot figure out how to change the font size of incoming mail permanently.  And, when answering an email I have to highlight the first few words and zoom it so I can see what I am writing.  what am I missing?

    I like the mail feature with one exception; I cannot figure out how to change the font size of incoming mail permanently.  And, when answering an email I have to highlight the first few words and zoom it so I can see what I am writing.  what am I missing?

    You can type the email using what you set in preferences and then highlight the text and use command - minus sign (or command - + for larger) to reduce the size of the text.
    You can also type command - T and a window will appear allowing you to select fonts/sizes/color/ background highlight.
    The above works in Notes also. I haven't tried to do this in any other Apple application.
    For incoming emails, you can use the above to reduce font size, but I don't know of a way to permanently set the incoming font size to a default.

  • My screen seems to be in a permanent zoom

    my screen seems to be in a permanent zoom, and whenever i move my curser, the screen moves with it.  how do i get back to a normal screen?

    If you have toddlers or cats Zoom can accidentally turned on by hitting a group of keys that include Option + Command + 8.
    To prevent this being accidentally activated in the future go to System Preferences>Keyboard>Keyboard Shortcuts>Universal Access and uncheck all the boxes.

  • How do I permanently set the zoom-function, so I will not have to zoom every time I open a new tab/page?

    I have recently installed Firefox on my one month old laptop which has a 17" screen. Every time I open Firefox I have to use the zoom-function (ctr +) four times to be able to read comfortably. Every time when I next open a website, or tab, or window I have to use the zoom-function again. This is kind of getting old, fast.
    Is there any way I can set the zoom to a higher/closer setting permanently, so I do not have to use the zoom-function about 50 times everytime I use the internet?
    If you could help me that would be lovely!
    Thanks,
    Kikki

    You can use an extension to set a default font size and page zoom on web pages.

  • My lock screen picture is zoomed in. When I try to change it, I can't scale it, or try to zoom out to a position I like. It is permanently stuck in one position. I asked a friend that had ios7 and he can't relate, and has never seen it before

    To back to the normal scale you have to disable the parallax.
    Settings -> General -> Accessibility -> Reduce Motion (turn off)
    You won't be able to put the wallpepr out of frame as ios 6 (earlier), but it stop to putting the annoying zoom.
