Can't get a full screen display for keynote or movies.

The deck or movie only displays a smaller section on the center of the screen with a thick black border. It used to display full screen, I don't know when it changed.

Hi Mary,
I don't remember those arrows in 10.6, only 10.7 & up!?
I have 10.6.8, as you do. To make your Safari full screen, make sure you have the left hand side of your safari page moved  all the way to the left.  Then move your cursor to the BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER of the safari page, and simply drag your page towards the lower right hand corner of the screen. NOTE: you will see a series of lines on the bottom right corner of the page, indicating where to place you cursor arrow.

  • Why can't I get a full screen display on my programmes

    I am not able to get a full screen display on downloads of films and iview top and bottom of screen blacked out double tap to enlarge does not work Thankyou

    Did you purchase the ringtone or make it yourself by taking an excerpt from a song?
    If taking an excerpt from a song, it must be 30 sec or less. Once you get the 30 sec clip, you have to create an AAC version of the clip. Open the folder with the AAC version of the clip and change the file extension to .m4r I believe. Then double click the new file and it will automatically be loaded in the "tones" folder. You can then open the "tones" folder in iTunes and drag it to your iPhone which is connected to iTunes on your computer.

  • How can I get a full screen on facetime

    How can I get a full screen on FaceTime

    You woul dprobably need to choose a zoom display mode on the TV.
    Any screem shots / promos for mirroring I've seen have been 4:3 ratio like the iPad screen resolution.
    To me this would be an obvious source of frustration to users of 16:9 TVs - unless there's an ipad 2 mode to somehow run in 16:9 not using the whole screen or not displaying the edges for mirroring, AppleTV2 may not be able to fill the screen

  • Constant minimization and can't get the full screen --Intel Imac 17"

    I am obiviously a newbie. the windows constantly minimize with no apparent cause. How can I stop this and get some work done? Is it the mighty mouse, expose? I have tried them all
    The display only shows on 3/4 of the screen--how can I get a full screen view.

    Hi San Saba Kid,
    When you say minimize, are describing something like on a PC or when it minimizes do you see the page in dock?
    If you look at the lower right hand corner of an open window, you'll see a tirangular shape, you can click on this triangle and drag the window to a new size. You can fill up your entire screen by positioning your window and then dragging the corner to size it.
    I think this is what you meant... Rick
    BTW - the red dot closes - the yellow minimizes - the green optimizes the window so no horizontal scrolling is needed

  • Why do some videos opened/played from Safari only open to about a 2" square. Can't get a full screen view?

    Why do some videos opened/played from Safari only open to about a 2" square. Can't get a full screen view? I have Safari 5.0.6 and QuickTime Player 7.7. Thanks

    Hi, Daryl -
    If you moved the G4 around to make room for the new machine, that could have jarred the processor loose. It's not unusual for that to happen to an older machine, though it usually happens to RAM or cables, not to the processor.
    Years of heating and cooling can loosen a connection and cause some oxidation of the contacts; subsequent moving of the machine, coupled with just a bit of thumping or torquing of the chassis, can cause the connection to fail. Reseating the connection not only makes it secure again, it usually wipes the oxidation off of the contacts.

  • Since upgrading the IOS 8 on my IPad 2 I can longer get a full screen on my TV when connected with an HDMI cable. anything I should change in my settings? Right now my iPad is mirrored on the TV with a black box all around the edge

    I have reached the same conclusion in the mean time. I have done a bit of investgation in to other grahics cards and am seeing some that show SPDIF connections from the card to the mother board. I was not familar with SPDIF but it did a little bit of sluething. It is of course a digitally enconded voice. I am guessing that in that case the mother board ( assuming it supports this hardware option) would use this output and be able to translate that digital audio to its other audio outputs. That is a lot of guessing of course. I think my "solution" might  be a whole new desktop - a rather drastic course of action! I was in the proceess of getting ready to upgrade this machine anyway with a new graphics card (which I will now return), go to Win 7, and maybe even a new digital TV reciever,  and I don't want to throw good money after bad anyway.
    Thanks for your comments

  • Can I get a full screen on iphoto without the toolbar at the bottom?

    can I get a full screen on iphoto 11 without the toolbar at the bottom?

    It depends on which version of iPhoto you're using.  iPhoto 7 and earlier  the answer is yes.  iPhoto 11, no..  If you're using 11 and want to complain the send your requests to Apple via http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphoto.html.

  • HOW CAN I GET FACETIME FULL SCREEN?

    HOW CAN I GET FACETIME FULL SCREEN?

    HERE'S HOW:
    (1) Launch FaceTime
    (2) Connect with one of your contacts.
        (You must be connected to activate full screen view.)
    (3) As soon as you have established two-way video, the controls appear at the bottom of the picture like this:
    If the controls go away, hover your mouse in the bottom of the picture.  The controls will reappear.
    (4) Click the diagonal double arrows at the right side of the control box to enter full screen view:
    (5) Clicking the diagonal double arrows again or pressing <esc> (Escape) cancels full screen view.
    (6) If the above doesn't work, restart Mac and try again.  Unless your software is damaged, the above works.

  • How can I get airplay full screen

    How can I get airplay full screen

    if you mirror a non widescreen device which as all ios devices to a widescreen tv it will not fill the whole screen
    if it did then it would be cutting top and buttom of your screen to fit or streght the image and made everybodys faces unnatrually wide
    many tv's support doing 1 of those 2 force to fill the whole screen features in their remote
    at least all the tv's I've had since they were still CRT tv's have supported that

    A broken screen is not covered by the warranty. However, sometime the Genius at an Appe store will exchange it at no cost. Otherwise the exchange cost is:

  • How can I create a full-screen view of Keynote slide in Snow Leopard?

    How can I create a full-screen view of my Keynote slides in Snow Leopard?
    I'm going to be importing into ScreenFlow to create a video.
    Thank you!!

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    Do you want static screen captures or motion video of slides as titles, bullet points, and the like are presented?
    Run the Keynote slide presentation in full-screen mode, then...
    Static full-screen captures - use Command+Shift+3.
    Static partial-screen captures - use Command+Shift+4 and use cursor to select the area of the screen to capture.
    If you want motion video as builds occur, why not use Keynote's built-in Share, Export function?
    (I'm on iLife '09.)
    Also understand that the default slide format for Keynote is 1024x768, not full-screen MacBook 1280x800 screen size, so you'll have wide black borders unless you change the default size or crop the finished screen captures.

  • After installing update I can't get a full screen. Only tabs under foxfire symbol on task bar.

    I had to "un-install" Foxfire and reinstall the older version I was using. Every time I tried to install the update it messed up and I could never make it open to full screen. It just kept opening the tabs under the Foxfire symbol on the task bar. Has updating caused this for
    others? I am using HP desktop with updated Windows 8. (hate windows 8) Everything works fine until I install the Foxfire update.

    I have the same problem ......when I try to update foxfire it messes up and then I can not get anything but a little square under the foxfire logo on the taskbar...just will not open to full screen only blank except for the tiny square under logo of foxfire....so will just leave things the way they are as they work fine so guess it is ...I did go to HP and installed all update and also Windows
