After Leopard Upgrade, HDTV No Longer Displays Full Screen Apple TV??

Fairly recent Apple convert. iMac is directly connected to HDTV (Mini-DVI to HDMI) and A/V Receiver(Toslink). After Leopard upgrade, I now have a black border, on HDTV, no matter what resolution I choose (worked automatically and perfectly on Tiger). In System Preferences-Display, I am mirroring the displays and have Overscan turned off, because without it, the Menu Bar does not display at all. I am wondering if Apple is trying to force me to buy an Apple TV or if maybe I just need to be patient until the correct drivers come out? Apple told me they were referring my problem to the Engineering Department, but I am not holding my breath. Primary need is to view Photos and eventually rent movies, when HD is readily available. Any opinions, predictions or suggestions on resolving would be appreciated. Thanks!!

same issue here. Don't use it very often so could not remember if it was fine previously thought it was. Hope we get help soon.

When I updated my iPhone 4s the picture of the person calling me is no longer displayed full screen. I do not like the small thumbnail picture. What can I do about this?

When I updated my iphone 4s the picture of the person calling me is no longer displayed full screen and the thumbnail picture is too small. Is there anything I can do to change this?

Yes, hopefully.. Go to www.apple.com/ feedback and let them know how upset you are!! I did along with many others. It's the only way to let Apple know they made a HUGE mistake here..

Multiple Problems after Leopard upgrade HELP! Video display and FW problem

I don't know if this is related.. but I've been battling multiple problems ever since I upgraded my G5 to Leopard a week ago. Everything was perfect under Tiger.
Well, I think I've got everything solved except two last things.
1. My 750GH Maxtor Firewire drive... when I plug it in... does not show in the desktop and it causes both my internal drive and two other Firewire enclosures to disappear from the desktop. I can see all of them mounted in the disk utility, but if this one drive is plugged in.. all icons disappear from the desktop. If I unplug or unmount the 750GB drive.. everything comes back.
I've reformatted this drive, etc. This does not happen on my MacBookPro. The drive mounts fine on that. I've tried different cables, I've tried USB (it's a triple interface Maxtor) and nothing seems to work. I would assume there's something wrong with the drive and not my desktop... but the drive works fine on the MacBookPro.
PLEASE!! Any clues would help...
The other problem that only occurred directly after upgrading to Leopard... is that my graphics now get corrupted and garbled. I've got two video cards running two LCD monitors. The card giving me problems is the ATI Radeon 9800 Pro (256MB). What happens is.. first all the window shadows and top menu bar start getting checkerboard patterns.. then the whole screen starts getting variants of different colors and checkerboard patterns. After awhile and refreshing the screen a few times... the problem goes away for a bit. Then comes back.
Again, this card and my entire system and drives were working fine under Tiger. Now, I don't know if I have a bad card? Is there something wrong with Leopard on my G5 2Ghz DP? Did my Maxtor 750GB triple interface drive just go bad with the upgrade?
I don't know where else to look, I'm guessing the "geniuses" at the Apple store won't help me since this machine is out of warranty. Any help would be HUGELY appreciated. I've been battling all these problems ever since I started the Leopard upgrade 4 days ago and have not got much sleep.

The drives not or disappearing on the desktop could point to the need to do a pram reset.
I believe you hold down the apple-option-p-r keys at startup and listen for a couple of chimes.

How do I get my contact's photos to display full screen for incoming calls?

I noticed today that when I get an incoming call it no longer displays "full screen". I keep missing calls because it now only displays as a banner at the top of the screen that someone is calling and their photo (if I've assigned one to them) is a tiny thumbnail.
Did I only just notice now that this is another 'great upgrade' with the new IOS, or is this some weird glitch with my phone? I've been wondering how I've been missing calls in the past week, but just happened to catch it today after I had been using the new map app and wasn't sure if it was just a coincidence or if it's somehow connected..?
Is there any way to change this or am I stuck with it this way??

I've never added my contact on my computer, I've always done it through my phone (I didn't know you could do it through the computer). The problem is not the photo, it's that the call doesn't come in and take up the full screen. Now when a call comes in, it displays as a banner at the top of the phone where the time and date normally would be, so I don't notice anyone's phoning.
As far as I can recall, it's only started happening since yesterday after I used the new map app. I've checked my notifications settings and the phone settings and so far as I can see, everything is set the same way it always was. I checked my hubby's phone to see if it's maybe something new since this last update to IOS6, but the call displays full screen (regardless whether the contact has a photo associated to it or not) and not a banner at the top of the screen like mine.
I still don't know how to change this back. Any other suggestions?

After ios5 upgrade can no longer increase font size on iPad or iPhone, any suggestions apart from getting new glasses!! Also the backlight on the iPad isn't as bright as before. Any ideas?

Hi Zak, thanks for the reply.
The filename is whatever is set to be the background fill of the site (I presume the desktop background fill, if mobile versions are set to be different). I've tried a number of different files, sizes and types/formats and the result is still the same, so as far as I can tell it's not the file itself causing the issue...
It uploads all pages (desktop, tablet and phone versions), .css files and .html files, and even the favicon .ico file but then hangs on the first image file, which incidentally is the background fill image.
The total number of files is said to be 154. It gets stuck on file number 24.
Yes the "Resume" dialog appears and upon clicking it just attempts to continue from the hang at the first image file (apparently 66% of the way through).
Re: the "BC site has changed" part - I thought as much but figured worth reporting.
... Incidentally, as I've written this reply, I left the "Resume" dialog open (ie neither clicking "resume" or "cancel" and just as I've finished typing it appears to have published the site successfully?!! (I must've left it for roughly 5 minutes)
Bizarre behaviour... I'm not sure if this will repeat itself with other sites but I'm sure there's a bug here that needs looking at regardless...?!
Any thoughts?

IMovie quits after leopard upgrade

iMovie'08 just does not open after leopard upgrade. It says application quit unexpectedly.
Any ideas what to do?

I too seem to have the same problem. Am running OS 10.5.6 and just will not stay open. Have tried to find the iMovie preference file and there's nothing there which could be the problem.
I too am wondering what I can do???

Why won't video display full screen?

I've imported an mp4 file into Premiere elements 7, burnt it to DVD, but when I view it on TV there's large black areas all around the video. i thought it was the TV setting, played around with those, but couldn't get it to display full screen.
I've looked at the video again in preview, and it's the same when I preview it, so I'm guessing it might be a Premiere Elements setting or a laptop setting? Note this is the first time I've tried it on a new laptop - the old one was nicked when we were burgled :-(
I've done a clean install of premiere elements and just gone from there, so do I need to do something after install maybe?
Any help much appreciated
thanks

You say that you created your .mp4 (photos and videos) in Windows Movie Maker. However, please verify that since Windows Movie Maker does not appear to offer a .mp4 export choice...they all seem to be .wmv or dv.avi. If you miswrote on this point, the discussion of .mp4 and Premiere Elements becomes a non issue.
(The above seems to be true if you are using the Windows Live Movie Maker instead of Windows Movie Maker, but in the case of Windows Live Movie Maker there is no longer an option for dv.avi, just .wmv.)
When creating a Premiere Elements project for export to file saved to the computer hard drive or burn to disc,
a. Determine the properties of your source media (video and audio compression, frame size, frame rate, file extension, pixel aspect ratio, etc)
b. Set the Premiere Elements project preset (new project dialog) to match the properties of those source media.
c. Check...does my source media fill the space provided in the Edit Mode Monitor for editing purposes.
d. When exporting, if workflow is for 16:9 Widescreen, then be sure to set for a preset for Widescreen burn to or, if workflow is 4:3 standard, then a preset for Standard burn to.
I suspect that your problems are in regard to set up of your project rather than .mp4 versus other wrapper formats.
But let us see by looking at the details revisited.
Thanks.

Display full-screen controls NOT visible

I exported my keynote presentation as a QuickTime full-screen movie. In Preferences, I have the controls checked to display full-screen controls and to never hide them. They do not show up anywhere. I also set the presentation as a slideshow to control the presentation using the arrow keys and they do not show up. In the Guide it states that as long as "Display full-screen controls" is selected in QT Player Preferences, you can make hidden controls appear by moving the pointer. They don't.
Any help out there would be appreciated...I have a deadline to meet!

Huh, I didn't realize you had to format a flash drive for a Mac, I'll check that out.
O.K. I may have something that I said I was going to try...I unlocked the file, changed *_My* permission_, the Staff and Everyone else to "Read Only" privileges, then locked again. I then zipped it and sent it to my son this morning. He said he could open it, change it but it would not allow him to save it! I'm going to test it further somehow but I don't know anybody else that has a Mac w/Keynote '08. Do you have Keynote 08? Can I send it to you to test (it would be alot easier) or to someone in the Keynote discussion area?
This message should now have a subject line..."Keynote presentation to CD to be accessed, but not changed?" When this all began, I searched discussions in Keynote on this and found nothing with a concrete answer, only that you cannot save a keynote presentation as password protected. I posted twice and no one answered. I think this part of our discussion will help Keynote people.
*Back to your area of expertise and my original question!*... Can you still look to see what key commands force the HUD for me for my QuickTime Movie as Slideshow? I know they could not change that, but the arrow controls would have to be displayed. I don't know what HUD means but I'm going to search too... I found this link: http://developer.apple.com/documentation/QuickTime/Conceptual/QT7-2Update_Guide/NewFeaturesChangesEnhancements/chapter_2_section9.html
Could you take a look and see if this is what I need? I do have Mac OS X v10.5.4 and QT v7.5 and my Preferences window does not have a recording tab but my Full screen window looks that same. When I view my A/V controls it also doesn't view as in figure 1-8. I'm confused again! QT 7.5 is the latest version, isn't it?

How do I get online help to display full screen when opened?

I'm working in RoboHelp HTML 8 developing
WebHelp. My client wants the help to display full screen (100%) when it's
opened.
How do I accomplish this?
Thanks

If your just opening the html file from a link within your site, then you could code the link to open in a new window at full size. This is not done through RH, but instead on the site where its linking to your webhelp index.html page. Its relatively simple, and you can customise things like viewable buttons, scroll bars etc etc.

3G Nano: How do I get my photos to display full-screen?

Hi,
I have a 3G Nano.
When I go into PHOTOS the left 1/2 of the screen is always taken up by the menu selections and I have not yet figured out how to get the photos to display full screen. What am I doing wrong?
Please excuse... this is my first iPod...

Select "All Photos" from the menu to the left of those half pictures. Press the center button and you will get "thumb nails of your photos. Run your finger around the touch wheel and a yellow box will highlight the picture. If you start with the first picture and press the center button again you will bring up a full screen pict. To go to the next pict use the touch wheel in a clockwise manner to see each pict. Go to back to the photo menu and go to settings to try out some neat tricks and even add music. Don't ever be worried about asking a question. The only dumb question is the one you didn't ask! I got my nano yesterday and I have some questions that the "help" didn't address also

IChat video no longer working after Leopard upgrade

I always used to be able to video chat with everyone and then after my Leopard upgrade, no such luck... I looked through the user tips and here is what I have done.
1) Have you done the Quicktime Streaming setting ?
Yes, I have it set
2) Are you running your Mac with the Firewall On ?
Nope
3) Did you upgrade from Panther ?
Nope
4) How are you connected to the internet ?
Airport Extreme. Do I need to do set anything? We use it in 802.11n and nothing else.
5) Do you have any iChat Add-Ons ?
Nope
7) Does it have anything to do with connecting to a PC ?
See Here and here
8) List your Connection speed
6.7Mbps
Any ideas??
Thanks.

Hi,
2) Set the Firewall in Leopard to Allow Specific applications and service and add iChat to the list.
With an Airport Extreme I expect you have been getting Error 7
If the Modem is a Cable modem then nothing should be done to the Airport
If the modem id SDSL and routes then the Airport should not Share An IP and also the ports in the modem need to be opened with UPnP or pointing at the IP the computer has after you stop it Sharing an IP.

Macbook Displays Flashing Question Mark on Startup After Leopard Upgrade

Hello, I have a first Generation Macbook that I tried to Upgrade to Leopard. I put in the install disk and everything went smoothly until I checked on it an hour later and it said "Install Failed" without specifying a reason and it asked me to restart. So, I restarted with the disk in and then the installer claimed it couldn't locate my hard drive. I popped out the disk and now all I have is a flashing Question mark on my screen. I know there is a help article related to this, but I was wondering if there is something different due to this being a result of an attempted Leopard Upgrade, also I was wondering If I do put in the OSX Tiger Disk that came with my Macbook and re-install it will it erase everything I had on the computer?
Thank You Any help is Appreciated!!!!!!!

The Tiger install discs will need to erase your hard drive to allow for Tiger to be installed.

Mail sick after Leopard upgrade

Hi everyone
I originally added my comments to another thread, but that person's problem has been solved, while mine has not, so I had better post separately.
I had no problems with Mail before I upgraded to Leopard. After I upgraded, Mail wouldn't boot. That turned out to be due to an older copy of Mail still being on my disk, and the Dock and Login Items calling it instead. Deleting the old copy and opening the new copy, so it could run its Leopard setup, fixed that problem. After that, Mail would boot.
However, I was unable to download any mail from my POP server. It worked fine before the upgrade, but wouldn't work after the upgrade. Similar to the other thread, the Activity window would say that messages were being downloaded (and SpamSieve would log them), but they would not appear in my Inbox. Strangely, mailing-list messages etc. filtered to other mailboxes would appear in those other mailboxes.
I have quite a few extra mailboxes. The Leopard upgrade has rearranged them. They used to be listed under the Inbox and Smart Mailboxes (I installed MailTags once, but had problems with it, so I uninstalled it, but the Smart Mailboxes I created remain). The whole hierarchy, from the top of the sidebar, was called "On My Mac".
After the Leopard upgrade, "On My Mac" no longer represents all my mailboxes. It has been shifted down the sidebar, and now only contains my extra mailboxes (mailing lists etc.). My Inbox, Sent, Trash, Junk and Smart Mailboxes are now separate categories to On My Mac, and listed above it. I have no idea if this is relevant or not, but I mention it in case.
Following a suggestion on this forum, I tried rebuilding my Inbox. Mail crashed. It crashes every time I try to Rebuild my Inbox. (Crash log: http://www.riverland.net.au/~clytie/Mail_rebuild.txt).
After my attempted Rebuild, my Inbox was empty. All my previous messages had disappeared. There are plenty of emix files in my ~/Library/Mail POP account folder, but oddly, they are very old, many from previous years. Yet I only keep a couple of months' emails in my Inbox! None of these recent mails remain.
I have turned off Time Machine, so I won't overwrite my previous backup. (I don't know enough about Time Machine's bevaviour yet to take any chances.) My previous backup shows emix files up to the day I upgraded to Leopard, but double-clicking on them only shows a title and an empty window. (This may be because they are on a separate disk to the Mail app.: I don't know.)
I noticed that the Activity window would get stuck downloading specific mails, so I got onto my ISP's Webmail, and deleted as many mails as I could (some mailing list mails, spam etc.). Rebooting Mail after that, I could download a few mails, but again the Activity window would show Mail stuck on another message (usually in the 50s or 60s: "downloading 52 of 694"). If I delete that message in my Webmail, Mail will get stuck on another message next time I Check Mail. (I tell the Activity window to Stop, and it says it is Stopping, but never finishes. I have to Force Quit to stop it. Is mdworker related to Mail?)
I don't know if these "blocking" messages have anything particular in common. My prefs on my MacBook or my ISP don't exclude messages on the basis of size, format or attachments.
I use SpamSieve, GrowlMail and PGPMail. SpamSieve appears to be working: it logs each message received, even though they don't appear in my Inbox. However, SpamSieve's Growl notifications don't appear. I am unsure if Growl is working with Mail, although it still shows up in the Mail prefs: it is working with Speed Download. PGPMail still shows up in the Prefs and menus, but not in the message windows.
I hope this information is useful. I don't know what to do from here. Thankyou for any help you can offer.

My question hasn't been answered here, but I seem to have found the answer myself, eventually.
I decided to move the GrowlMail and PGPMail mailbundles to the Bundles Disabled folder, plus delete my two remaining MailTags smart mailboxes from when I had MailTags installed, then restart.
Lo and behold, as my old Grannie always said, I could successfully rebuild my Inbox. All my much-regretted previous emails appeared again! It was an emotional reunion.
Then I tried checking mail, and LaB again, several days of mail came pouring in.
Evidently something to do with the mailbundles or old smart mailboxes was getting in the way of Mail function.
I'll try reintroducing each mailbundle. I hope nobody else has this problem, but just in case, I thought I'd better leave my belated solution.

Trouble scanning after Leopard upgrade

After upgrading my G4 PB to Leopard I can no longer scan an image into MS Word from Office 2004 or other applications without getting an error when I use the twain scanner software from a Canon MX860 or an older Epson CX4200. The only thing that works is to use Image Capture and save the image as a separate file and then insert or open it in the other software. Are there other solutions?

I have noticed the same thing on my 17" MacBook Pro once I upgraded to Leopard. My wireless now takes a long time while it scans for wireless networks and then finally connects. I've also noticed that connections to SMB servers take longer too. Not impressed at all with the new network technology in Leopard.
