CS 6 - Full Screen in Mac OS X?

The header says it all. Is there a full screen ability? Thanks.

Close Tab Groups on the various panels.
When you need them again, go to Windows and select the ones you want. Or use Shortcut keys:
F8 = Files,
Cmd+F3 = Properties,
Shift+F11 = CSS
and so on.

How to Remove maximize/minimize/close top-bar in full-screen view [MAC]?

Hi.
My Q. is pretty much as the title implies.
It's a small thing, and maybe kind of trivial,
but I'd like to know how to get rid of the maximize/minimize/close top-bar in full-screen view in Adobe Reader on the Mac.
I am definitely in fullscreen view [I hit command+L], just so you know,
but I still have that top grey bar showing with the maximize/minimize/close buttons [the red, yellow, and green].
As I said, kind of a trivial concern, but I'd like to know how to hide that in full-screen mode.
I tried searching around a few places for an answer, but there is nothing too obvious.
I can't find anything in the full-screen preferences of reader either. Maybe I'm missing something...
Thanks!

Version 11.0 , so I guess that is the most recent?
I think this is an application-specific problem too, because I don't encounter this in full-screen mode with other applications.

Adobe AIR HTML Native Full Screen on Mac OS X

I am building an application in Adobe AIR for Mac in HTML/JavaScript.
What I want to do is when the application loads, make the application go into full-screen mode using the correct native full-screen found in OS X Lion and above.
e.g.
This is NOT using the displayState that Flash/Flex uses.
If the users decides to exit full screen mode they will see the app in a native window and can re-enter full screen mode using the icon you get in the top-right of a window.
I've found some information about an extension here: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1209193
FREObject _EnableFullScreenMode(FREContext ctx, void* functionData, uint32_t argc, FREObject argv[])
        //We should be okay to do this, even on 10.6, according to this post:
        //http://www.cocoabuilder.com/archive/cocoa/311124-implementing-full-screen-for-10-7-but-app-should-also-run-on-10-6.html
        //We can't use [NSApp mainWindow] - didn't appear to work
        //This seems to though:
        NSArray * allWindows = [NSApp windows];
        if (allWindows.count > 0)
            NSWindow *mainWindow = [allWindows objectAtIndex: 0];
            NSWindowCollectionBehavior behavior = [mainWindow collectionBehavior];
            behavior |= NSWindowCollectionBehaviorFullScreenPrimary;
            [mainWindow setCollectionBehavior:behavior];
        //TODO: Return a boolean instead depending on if we found the main window
        return NULL;
That looks to do what I want! But after reading the Adobe AIR docs I can't get my head around where this code should live in my app directory and how I can call it on app load.
So in my index.html I have:
$(document).ready(function() { // Make window full-screen // CALL THE EXTENSION TO MAKE THE APPLICATION FULL_SCREEN // Make window active window.nativeWindow.activate(); // Make it visible window.nativeWindow.visible = true; });
The initialWindow is not visible by default using <visible>false</false> in the application descriptor XML file. And is made visible and active on the document ready as shown above.
The missing piece is loading in the extension and making the window go native full-screen.
To break this question up:
Where does the extension code go? E.g. do I create an extension file and put it in any particular location in the app directory?
How do I then load the extension into the application
Finally how do I then do the full-screen on document ready
What happens in OS X below Lion? How did full-screen work before it was introduced?
Hopefully I can get pointed in the right direction as the docs have totally baffled me and don't explain how the extension file is created (to me at least).

Extensions require both native code and ActionScript code and are packed by the native extension compiler by Adobe to an ANE file. Check this tutorial: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/air/articles/building-ane-ios-android-pt1.html
After compiling the extension, you can put the extensionId into your <extensions> branch in the application.xml and add the .ane as an excluded library into your AS3 project. Then you can use the extension like any other external library (swc file).
It's also helpful to download and play around with extisting ANEs. There are some nice open source libraries here: https://github.com/freshplanet

JNLP-run JavaFX application hangs in full screen on Mac

Hi all,
I am on Mac OS X 10.9 running JDK 7u45.
I have the JNLP file below:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<jnlp spec="1.0+" codebase="http://localhost:8080/jnlpTester">
<information>
<title>Title</title>
<vendor>Vendor</vendor>
</information>
<resources><jfx:javafx-runtime version="2.1+"/></resources>
<resources><jar href="lib/jnlpTester.jar" main="true"/></resources>
<application-desc main-class="application.JNLPTester"/>
<security><all-permissions/></security>
</jnlp>
The jar file (jnlpTester.jar) contains the following JavaFX application:
package application;
import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.scene.Parent;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.control.ListView;
import javafx.stage.Stage;
public class JNLPTester extends Application {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        launch(args);
    @Override
    public void start(Stage primaryStage) throws Exception {
        Parent root = new ListView<>();
        primaryStage.setTitle("Hello World");
        primaryStage.setScene(new Scene(root, 300, 275));
        primaryStage.show();
The application starts without any problem (see http://tinypic.com/r/29glonq/5). However, when I click on the full screen icon, the application does not go to full screen and the interface hangs (see http://tinypic.com/r/2mwizk/5). When I run the application from my IDE (eclipse) there is no such problem (see http://tinypic.com/r/2gsleep/5).
Would anyone have any idea about this?
Many thanks in advance,
Hayrettin

No it's simple, but it's not exactly what you are looking for. What I use this for is just to be able to watch a video like an .avi on my tv while surfing the web or writing a document. I hook up the computer to the tv via HDMI and then set the screens up in extended mode(not mirroring) then just drag the VLC window to the TV screen and choose VLCs full screen once the video has started. The problem is it still acts like one monitor so if you do a desktop or full screen swipe on the MBP both screens swipe resulting in the video missing from the TV. So, as I said not excatly what you want, but works to some extent.

Mac OS 9.2 Not in full screen

Hi,
I just bought iBook G3 800Mgz from ebay, to run Mac OS 9 with old apps to open some old documents.
However, the iBook G3 work prefect with Mac OS 9.2.2 & Mac OS 10.4.11 ..
just one problem that Mac OS 9 doesn't run in full screen !!
I prefer to startup from full OS 9 rather than running as a classic sys under Tiger or Jaguar OS, ..
When I startup from OS 9, the startup operation work normally full screen with Mac OS 9 logo window appear for 2 second, then the screen becomes small during the startup processing, and the OS 9 continue complete the startup with the same size.
After several trailing to solve the issue but without effects, I discover where is the problem but can not fix it .. the problem with OS 9 feeling there are external monitor so it gives for that monitor full 1024x768, and on iBook screen 640x480 .. I found this on control strip with monitor control panel, also when I run the monitor control panel it's give me two windows, a window for each display !!
The picture below explain more with I mean .. OS 9 desktop with half size of screen and center of the display.
it's exactly same thing happen when you connect your mac with projector, even your screen support until 1280x800 for example, but the projector just 800x600, you will see your desktop on your laptop decrease with a large black frame ..
Now, with all my discretion, I didn't figure out where is the problem that push my iBook feel there is another monitor .. I tried remove some extensions and reset prm but no effect.
Please help and Thanks in Advance.

Hi, asulaiti -
Now I figure out what's the problem, I tried to remove Display Preferences & Monitors Preferences files. But nothing change.
I thought that would probably not help. The problem is with some of the specific files (probably extensions) that are needed by the hardware on your iBook G3 - the ones you have are intended to support different hardware, hardware that is specific to the other model.
You will need to replace the applicable files with ones compatible with your machine. Two ways to do this -
• Locate someone who can furnish you with copies of those files. I don't know for sure, but I suspect they would include all extensions whose name starts with ATI.
• Re-install the OS 9.2.2, using an original disk set intended for your model. As I mentioned previously, this may be difficult to find. A retail (or universal) OS 9.2.2 Install CD was never released; the only install CDs for OS 9.2.2 are model-specific ones.
As far as sources go, you might check with an Apple User Group - most large cities and universities have one. This Apple support page may help in that regard -
http://www.apple.com/usergroups/
You may be able to find an appropriate disk set on places like eBay, but chances of doing so are slim - and you need to be careful that you get what you need.
You might also check back with the seller of that machine - ask them for the original disk set for it (that disk set really belongs with the machine).

QT video in Full Screen mode

Dear friends, my web www.aproduction.com.ua
1. How I can play QT video in Full Screen mode (MAC & PC)?
2. How I can set some attention info for visitors that I use QT video and for playback they should click on video & press space. Some popup or what you reccomend me?
Thank you in advance!
Boris

Your troubles are caused by the file dimensions used in your html page code. The QuickTime file is 640X480 and your page code uses 533X381.
The QuickTime controller (your page code shows 'true') requires an extra 16 pixels be added to the actual file dimensions. Your page code dimensions should be 640X496. The controller would now appear in your Web page. Changing the code to autoplay (not autostart) is the required tag and the value would be 'true' (your current code uses 'false').
Full screen playback can only be achieved via the QuickTime Player application. To do this you need a few more "special" tags in your html file code.
You need a "target" tag and a linked file (uses the href tag). The 'target' ='quicktimeplayer' would launch the QuickTime Player when your "poster" movie is clicked. One of my pages as an example:

Opening a window in full screen?

Hi,
One thing that really frustrates me is that i can't find a way to open a window program in full screen mode. I always have to manually set the window to the right place since the green button with the plus on the top left corner never really helps. So is there secret button that i don't know about that should be able to do this?
Thanks.

You can only do full screen on Mac OS X Lion but you can hide the dock and drag the window from the bottom right hand corner but it will still have the menu bar, How ever if you have a dual monitor setup you can use it on full screen on the second screen that does not have the menu bar or the dock

Full screen Safari slides open whenever I close another application

Hey all,
Probably a simple fix, but I always have Safari in full screen mode (mac laptop), and when I am working on the desktop and close a finder window or another application, my display automatically slides over to the full screen Safari window I have open. Any help on how to prevent this?
Cheers.

1. Empty Caches
    Safari > Preference > Advanced
    Checkmark the box for "Show Develop menu in menu bar".
    Develop menu will appear in the Safari menu bar.
    Click Develop and select "Empty Caches" from the dropdown.
2. Delete Cookies
    Safari > Preferences > Privacy > Cookies and other website data:
    Click the “Details” button.
    Remove all cookies except from Apple, your internet service provider and banks.
3. Safari > Preferences > Extensions
    Turn off Extensions if any and launch Safari again to test.
    Turn on those one by one and test.

How to permanently disable this message: "Press Esc to exit full screen." (by Adobe Flash Player) in Mac's Safari Browser?

Hello everyone,
I have been searching for sometime (without any success) for a solution to permanently remove this annoying message: "Press Esc to exit full screen."
Whenever I go to full screen mode, watching any video on YouTube, BBC, CNN (or many other websites which use Adobe Flash Player for streaming video) I have to bare seeing this message for several seconds until it fades away. Seeing this message once or twice would have been okay, but as we all watch many videos on a daily basis on internet, after weeks, months and now years seeing this message over and over again many times every day, it becomes very annoying, and I find myself rewinding many videos to their beginning after this message fades away to be able to watch it from the beginning without anything obstructing it!
Does anyone know how to "permanently" disable this message from appearing?
I am using the latest version of Safari 6.0 on the latest version of OS X (Mountain Lion 10.8.1), and have the latest version of Adobe Flash Player (Plug-in version 11.4.402.265) installed on my new MacBook Pro 15" with Retina Display.
Thanks,
Ally

Thanks Carolyn,
I am attaching a screenshot here for you to see that this setting was already set to what you suggested. I didn't need to change it as it was like this even before I post this message.
So the problem still presists and unfortunately your suggestion is not a solution to this probelm.
Last night I did more reseach and found a discussion in Adobe website, it seems a lot of other people have the same issue, and even started a discussion in Adobe website about it. But unfortunately Adobe refuses to address it and enable the end user at least to have an option to turn this message off from displaying permanently on his/her computer.
I am writing down the url links for the two posts regarding this issue on Adobe's website:
Link #1: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/921270
Link #2: https://bugbase.adobe.com/index.cfm?event=bug&id=3058752
Hopefully more people will get involved and ultimately we will either get Adobe's attention, or someone will find a "hack" and post it here for all of us. I have found some suggested "hacks" for Windows environment (you can simply google it, I am sure you will find them too). But so far I haven't seen anything for Mac's Safari browser.
Cheers,
Ally

Firefox for Mac: accidentally disabled full screen Flash video for Yahoo. How to reenable??

I was looking at a video on screen.yahoo.com, and that annoying "Now entering full screen... allow/don't allow" (paraphrasing) dialog came up at the top. I must have inadvertently selected the option to disable, because now when I click the fullscreen icon at the lower right part of the video, nothing happens at all. No full screen, no annoying dialog. Nothing.
As per other posts on this forum from people who have had this problem, I have tried the following:
• Deleted ALL Flash Player settings in my Mac's System Preferences
• Gone to about:permissions in Firefox and set Fullscreen to ALLOW for all Yahoo URLs
• Deleted all COOKIES for domain yahoo.com
I have also quit and rebooted Firefox after having done these things. Alas, I go back to the video on screen.yahoo.com, click the fullscreen icon in the video frame, and still get nothing.
I'm stumped. This seems to be a heavy price to pay for accidentally clicking the wrong button one time. Sort of a Zero Tolerance Policy approach to video settings... Any other ideas about how I can restore this functionality??
Thanks!
DM

You can hover the image.
That should make a delete X appear.
You can inspect and manage permissions for the domain in the currently selected tab via these steps:
*Click the "[[Site Identity Button|Site Identity Button]]" (globe/padlock) on the location/address bar
*Click "More Information" to open "Tools > Page Info" with the Security tab selected
*Go to the Permissions tab (Tools > Page Info > Permissions) to check the permissions for the domain in the currently selected tab

Mac Mini no longer able to display full screen on TV display.

I had my mac mini set up correctly with my Samsung 50" tv - using the "Best for display" option within system preferences - Display. I left the computer on overnight and in the morning the screen was messed up. Now I can only see the full screen, with menu bars at the top of the display, if i set preferences with the lowest available resoltion of 720p and using the Underscan option too. Any advice on what went wrong and how to get back to the best setting?

Hey there Slackbast,
It sounds like you are having some graphical issues when you have a TV connected to your Mac Mini, but it used to work fine. I recommend the troubleshooting from the article named:
Apple computers: Troubleshooting issues with video on internal or external displays
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1573
Try unplugging the video adapter or cable and then plug it back in.
If more than one video adapter is in use (or "daisy-chained"), troubleshoot by using only one adapter.
Example: A mini DisplayPort to DVI adapter connected to a DVI to HDMI adapter is an unsupported configuration because there is a series of adapters in use.
If available, try using a different display and or adapter (or use a different connector by using DVI instead of VGA, for instance).
Reset the systemYou can reset the Mac's parameter RAM and SMC.Reset the resolutionStart by resetting the Mac's parameter RAM. If the display does not come up, was previously set to an unsupported resolution, and still results in no video:
Start up in Safe Mode.
From the Apple () menu, choose System Preferences.
Choose Displays from the View menu to open the preferences pane.
Select any resolution and refresh rate that your display supports.
Restart your computer.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

Sterling

I have a mac OSX desktop version 10.6.8 and all of a sudden I can't get a full screen view in Safari when I ask for help the response is use the arrows on the top right of the screen ... I don't have them ... can anyone help?

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.

The Full Screen icon does not appear in Firefox 16.0.2 on Mac OS 10.6.8, and command+shift+F does not close the full screen view.

I accidentally entered full screen view and was unable to exit. The Firefox Help article at https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-make-firefox-and-websites-go-full-screen?esab=a&s=full+screen+mac&r=0&as=s says I should see a Full Screen View icon in the upper right-hand corner of the Firefox window. That icon not there. I cannot find it. It does not appear in either the full screen or non-full screen views.
Further, the Help article's advice to exit full screen view by using the keyboard sequence command+shift+F does not work. I had to unplug my iMac and reboot. Firefox then opened in non-full screen view.
Ideally, hitting the Escape key would cause Firefox to exit full screen view.

I forgot one detail. This happened while I was having trouble seeing the mouse cursor (I use Apple's Magic Mouse). It had disappeared briefly. I had to drag the cursor out of the Firefox Window for it to reappear. I accidentally entered full screen view while the cursor was not visible.
