Changing Screen Mode from Toolbar

CS2, 4.0.5, Tiger 10.4.11. IMac 2GHz.
This is a minor problem that's only cropped up recently. I've generally been able to switch screen modes, normal, preview, bleed, slug using the icon at the end of the toolbar. Lately the drop down from that tool only shows the current mode and doesn't allow the other modes to be selected. I've tried trashing preferences with no effect. Anyone else ever observed this behavior, or have a suggested fix to it?

Is that an Intel machine?

The Firefox window pops up on a regular interval (I think every 5 or 10 min) when any other program is being used, even when a film is playing in full screen mode from Firefox. It does not happen if Firefox is not running (i.e. it does not start by itself). The OS is Windows 7 SP1 and this begun after installing the Firefox update 5.0.1. Exactly all programs are updated with the latest version, the computer is clean according to Microsoft Security Essentials. Please solve this problem.

Changing Screen Modes Quirk

This issue comes up randomly and I can't really troubleshoot it enough to find a pattern.
When I open a document and hit "f" to change screen modes, sometimes the nextscreen mode (not full screen - it's the one where your canvas extends to the full dimensions of the application window) doesn't dipsplay the menus at the top (nor any panels for that matter) here is a screen shot of the first screen mode (default)
then when I press "f" the first time, I sometimes get this
the next screen mode appears to be as it should, but I can't figure out whether this could be a graphics driver issue, a preferences issue (that needs to be reset), a problem internally (Photoshop versus RAM), etc. This seems to happen when I'm working on large file sizes (100MB+), but like I said - it's all a little random. In the past I've reset preferences, made sure my graphics drivers were updated - all that I know to try.
What else could be the problem? Rebooting Photoshop fixes it 20% of the time (or less), sometimes I can "log off" and that fixes it, but mainly I have to reboot.

Bottom line is this: It is WAY too complicated a problem to answer simply. It's a lot like "Ford" vs. "Chevy".
Generally speaking, I'm seeing fewer bad reports from ATI users, but that doesn't mean individual cards are all better.
People on this forum report, for example, that they sometimes cannot get Photoshop's OpenGL to work with an ATI 5670, and that the expensive nVidia Quadro cards are causing more problems with Photoshop than the reasonably priced "gamer" models.
Right now, today, considering the last year's worth of experience, it appears that ATI is releasing better drivers, particularly for several year old models, than nVidia is. Will that keep up? Who can say.
Might be a good idea to pick a specific model you like then just ask whether folks are already using it with good results.
FYI, in the grand scheme of things Photoshop doesn't demand all that much from the video card, so even inexpensive cards CAN work well with it. Whether they actually DO on any given day with any given model, well, that's what's hard to nail down.

Unable to switch screen mode from standard: PS CS5

Full screen with or without menus is grayed out in the view menu and the view dropdown selector from the menu bar. I have quit and re-entered PS and have reset all workspaces to default. I have checked that I'm working in 64 bit. I still cannot switch screen mode from standard. Last update was to 12.04. Last extension installed was photokit sharpener.
Thanks for any help. (PS, how do I reset preferences file on a mac?)

Unable to exit full screen mode from any app

Hi,
I just upgraded to Mountain Lion today and I noticed something wrong. In Lion I used to be able to exit full screen mode from any app by pressing esc or clicking the exit full screen mode button on the top right corner of the screen. Now neither of those seem to work, in fact the menu bar doesn't even come up when I get the cursor to the top of the screen. Tried this on many apps, some system apps, always the same. The only way I found that works is pressing fn + ctrl + F2 (or ctrl + F2 depending on the function keys setting).
I checked the console and found this message appears whenever I go into full screen
WindowServer[79]: CGXRegisterWindowWithSystemStatusBar: window 10 already registered
Anyone having the same issue?
Any solutions found?
MacBook Pro 5,1
Processor 2,8 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
Memory 4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
Graphics NVIDIA GeForce 9600M GT 512 MB
Software OS X 10.8 (12A269)

Thanks for replying so fast.
I tried a couple more times and now the esc key method seems to be working, maybe it the cursor focus had something to do with it not working earlier.
But I still can't get the menu bar to drop down when I get to the top of the screen.
Did a PRAM reset, but no cigar.
Do you mean reinstalling over the current installation or installing fresh and recovering from a time machine backup?
In any case I think I'll wait a little bit more before I do any of that, it really bothers me to have to reinstall the whole system to fix something as insignificant as this. It's still a little annoying though.

Remove "Open in Full Screen mode" from multiple files

Hi there,
I just discovered today that I could use Javascript with Acrobat.
I download a lot of ebooks from a certain website that has them all set to open in Full Screen mode. (Properties > Initial View > Windows Options > [x] Open in Full Screen mode)
I could fix a lot of stuff that was annoying me with ebooks from this site, but I can't seem to find anything to disable the full screen thingie...
I tried these commands that I found, but they didn't do the job :
app.fs.isFullScreen = false;app.fullscreen = false;this.fs.isFullScreen = falsev;this.fullscreen = false;
Thanks,
Simo
PS : Using Actobat X

Thank you both for your replies.
With Acrobat Pro you can set the Initial View through the batch process.
Would you mind explaining how to do this for a noob like me?
Thanks,
Simo

Change VTP mode from Client to Server in a production VTP Domain

Dear all,
we have a production VTP Domain with some switches acting as VTP Client and 1 as a VTP Server. now the master is dead, and we would like to change the mode of one of the remaining switches from VTP Client to VTP Master. IMHO this change should not have any impact on the current configuration of the switches (and on the VLAN database), but we would like to have your opinion about this.
Any help/feedback will be greatly appreciated
thank you

That should be fine. The real difference between a VTP server vs. VTP client, the former allows (manual) VLAN configuration changes and the latter doesn't.

How do I stop Full Screen Mode from auto advancing?

I am attempting to show a PDF slide show in Full Screen Mode. The slides autoadvance and I can't find out how to stop it. I went to Preferences and made sure that the box with the faded 5 sec was not checked for auto advance but the program still advances. Any help?

I can't get either Acrobat 9 Pro or Reader X to do this and I tried with several PDFs. Unchecked, nothing advances automatically. Maybe someone else has some insite.

How to open images in Fill Screen mode from Camera Raw

I am using Photoshop CS4 for Windows. I created an action that executes Fit on Screen and set the Scripts Event Manager to execute that action on the Open Document event. This works when opening a document from Photoshop.
Here are my questions:
1) After opening a raw image from Bridge in Camera Raw, when I then open the image in Photoshop, it does not run the Open Document event action to Fit on Screen. What event do I need to set the action to execute on when opening an image from Camera Raw in Photoshop?
2) I added Fit on Screen to the action by selecting Insert Menu Item from the Actions menu and then selecting View-Fit on Screen. I cannot find Fill Screen on any pull-down menu (the button found on the Hand tool bar). How can I insert the Fill Screen item (which fills the screen a little more than Fit on Screen?
3) In the Scripts Events Manager, when you select Add an Event, it says Any scriptable event can be entered here. See the Scripting Reference for the full list of Photoshop event names.. On the following Adobe webpage, I found the Adobe Photoshop CS4 Scripting Guide but I did not find a list of Photoshop event names in that document. Where can I find the list of Photoshop event names?

Intencity Chart - how to change scan mode from top to bottom

Hello,
I need update my Intencity Chart from top to bottom.
Please tell me, can I do this?
Thank you.
With best Regards,
Dmitry.

Dmitry,
This link is the LabVIEW help for the Intensity Chart Properties Dialog Box. As you can see under Appearance > Update Mode there are three update options. All three options are left/right viewing.
This link is the LabVIEW help for the Update Mode Property, which gives more information about the property.
These two links give you the information on how to choose one of the three methods to update your Intensity Chart.

Changeing color modes from rgb to cmyk

Good Morning Everyone,
I am editing a file for a Realestate customer of mine. For some reason her previous designer didn't understand to make print material in cmyk ( I cant believe how many "designers" dont understand the difference.). I am now going back and correcting that issue so they will print accuratly. Usually I can do this in Illustrator and just go to the edit menu and then go to edit colors and choose convert to cmyk. That option is greyed out in this situation. Does anyone no why? I am attaching a screen shot. I am using illustrator cs6 on a mac running 10.7.5.

What Jacob says but check that you Color Settings are set right for the type of printing in question. Otherwise the colours may not convert satisfactorily.
