Everytime i go 'full screen' with a video, a red F pops up in the bottom toolbar (by windows flag) then dissapears when I exit...?

I was watching a YouTube video and as I pressed the button to go full screen I saw a square pop up in the bottom taskbar, like where the internet explorer and spotify icons are at the bottom of my screen, by the Windows start button. When I exited the video it dissapeared, so it was only up when i was full screen, it was never up there long enough for me to click on it. It was all red except for an italic f, which was white. After I watched a couple more videos, an actual pop up...popped up and said it had a X and said that windows had some kind of run time issue. I x-ed out of that, did'nt press OK.
I had read some things about the McAffee Security Scan Plus (which had installed with my adobe, just reinstalled it today....actually just got firefox today too-google chrome had not been working right for a while) and I decided to un-install that and it didn't stop the problem. I am wondering if this is something I should worry about? I'm not sure what it is and it has never appeared before. Please help!

Are the lines like psychedelic herringbone? If yes, I had that happen once, it was something serious, like the
Logic board. The good news is that it was fixed without any loss of data on the hard drive. Take it in to have Apple look at it ASAP. I took it to TekServe at the time, they are very nice about preserving your data and user library when possible.
Good luck and don't panic.

When i select the "Full Screen" option in video streams (like youtube, veoh, anything like that) i can do that one(1) time second(2nd) time the screen goes blank and can only exit it with the escape(Esc) button and then i have to restart firefox and again i have my one "Full-screen Ticket"

I have had a similar problem with my system. I just recently (within a week of this post) built a brand new desktop. I installed Windows 7 64-bit Home and had a clean install, no problems. Using IE downloaded an anti-virus program, and then, because it was the latest version, downloaded and installed Firefox 4.0. As I began to search the internet for other programs to install after about maybe 10-15 minutes my computer crashes. Blank screen (yet monitor was still receiving a signal from computer) and completely frozen (couldn't even change the caps and num lock on keyboard). I thought I perhaps forgot to reboot after an update so I did a manual reboot and it started up fine.
When ever I got on the internet (still using firefox) it would crash after anywhere between 5-15 minutes. Since I've had good experience with FF in the past I thought it must be either the drivers or a hardware problem. So in-between crashes I updated all the drivers. Still had the same problem. Took the computer to a friend who knows more about computers than I do, made sure all the drivers were updated, same problem. We thought that it might be a hardware problem (bad video card, chipset, overheating issues, etc.), but after my friend played around with my computer for a day he found that when he didn't start FF at all it worked fine, even after watching a movie, or going through a playlist on Youtube.
At the time of this posting I'm going to try to uninstall FF 4.0 and download and install FF 3.6.16 which is currently on my laptop and works like a dream. Hopefully that will do the trick, because I love using FF and would hate to have to switch to another browser. Hopefully Mozilla will work out the kinks with FF 4 so I can continue to use it.
I apologize for the lengthy post. Any feedback would be appreciated, but is not necessary. I will try and post back after I try FF 3.16.6.

Every time that I want to go full screen with an enbedded video firefox freezes and doesn't expand

Every time I try to go full screen with an embedded video or video game Firefox freezes and stop working

1. Update firefox to the latest version 2. and disable real player in menu->addons->plugins.
Recent crashes of certain multimedia contents (this includes Youtube videos, certain flash games and other applications) in conjunction with Firefox 13 are most probably caused by a recent Flash 11.3 update and/or a malfunctioning Real Player browser plugin.

ITunes 10.4 full screen with Win7-64bit doesn't work correctly.

iTunes 10.4 full screen with Win7-64 doesn't work correctly. I have the Windows taskbar on the left side of my screen. Maximized iTunes is panned to the left.

Same issue here. When the Windows taskbar is position on the top of the screen and then the iTunes windows is maximised, it's position is as if the Windows taskbar is at the bottom of the screen so the top of the iTunes window sits under the taskbar.
For those wanting a workaround, hold shift and right click the iTunes icon in the taskbar/quick launch bar and click restore, at least then you can adjust it to be full screen manually.

Windows 7 Ultimate x64

How to make netflix go full screen with multiscreen on chrome

i have not touched my netflix since i got mavericks installed because every time i fullscreen the video it never covers the screen entirely.
when i make my chrome window on my other monitor fullscreen there is always a small sliver that seems to be reserved for the IOS toolbar even though with flash and HTML5 video on youtube it envelopes the screen completly. i have no idea why it does this. my only solution i found was to make the individual tab in chrome go fullscreen which hides the searchbar like fullscreening hide's IOS' toolbar but unless i am doing somthing wrong i can barley make that happen on purpose as it always seems to be a graphical hiccup that happens on accident.
i heard of netflix switching to HTM5 which works wonderful on mavericks but i seem to be stuck with silverlight. i can easily remedy this by going out of multiscreen mode but it is a hassle as i must shut down everything i am doing to log out and log in again and while it will make netflix play fullscreen i will still get hit with the inconsistent youtube format that switches form HTML5 to flash at random which the fullscreen html5 will get rid of my main screen which defeats the purpose of dualscreen. so unless there is a way to make silverlight fill the entire screen or make mavericks accept HTML5 or even how to get chrome to fullscreen a single tab on command i am wasting $8 a month because of crappy hardware.
and while i heard netflix works bets on safari and firefox i cant use them because netflix never seems to remember my passwords for other browsers which forces me to change the password every time i want to login elsewhere which is also a hassle.

use the shift key in what way? as i click the fullscrene icon on chrome? as i hit the fullscreen button on netflix? or when i hit silverlight? or when i use it in conjunction with another hotkey you did not mention? please be more explicit and detailed in your solution.
i have had this problem since i got mavericks in October 2013 and have been looking for a solution myself for the past 4 months and have found nothing. maybe i was searching wrong or asking the wrong questions but i doubt i found nothing because i was the only one with the problem. i figured that more experienced mac users and chrome users would have faced the same problem and came up with a solution already using their ingenuity and hopefully would offer me their solutions if i asked directly.
since you responded within 3 minutes of me posting this question and as vague as your reply was you mention the solution requires the shift key in some way i was right in assuming i was not the only one with the problem and that others have found the solution already. no hours or days required to troubleshoot this alien and unheard of technical issue on my behalf since you have done that for yourself in the past 4 months and would only require 5-10 minutes in writing out 8-16 lines of text to explain the solution. possibly 24 lines if you write out the steps as a list.
i would not ask for help here if i found the solution myself but sadly i could not and have to turn to the community for guidance and cooperation in solving the problem, just like how humanity has solved every problem it faced and made the modern world the marvel it is today,though this sharing of information and labor that a social species such as humans would excel at.
so how exactly do i use the shift key in expanding my chrome tab which would make my netflix go full screen with no gaps?

Photoshop CS5 "full screen with menu bar" problem

Hi, I use Photoshop in a Mac computer. In CS4 when I work in "full screen with menu bar" mode, is really a full screen because the workspace go beyond the dock at the bottom. I mean, the dock is overlaping the workspace. In CS5, in the same mode is not really a full screen, the workspace ends above the dock, and the space at the bottom of the screen is wasted. I want to know why they changed that, and if there is a way to fix the problem (Hide the dock is not an option for me. Neither to use standard screen mode, cause that way I can't move the image around when zoomed out)

The following may work:
1. Record an action and use insert menu item for:
   View>Screen Mode>Full Screen with Menu Bar
                            and
   View>Fit on Screen
2. Go to: File>Scripts>Scripts Event Manager.
   In the event manager dialog choose the settings as below.
Everytime you open a document, the screen mode will go to full screen
and fit on screen.
If you decide that's a pain, you can go to the scripts event manager and remove the action.
For this to work, the action you recorded has to be in the actions panel.

Applications in full screen with two monitors

Sorry if there is one grammatical error, do not write in English, and I'm using google translator.
The function of the Lion full screen is very good, but I have aserious problem. It turns out that I use my macbook for keynotes, in the role of "Extended Desktop" is often used in DVD videos. Butthe DVD player no native Lion gives the option to show what the monitor that I want to make it full screen. The result is that the videois always on the screen of the Macbook, not the projector. I always liked the DVD player's native mac, but I'm using an older version ofVLC to be able to play DVD on my keynotes in function "Extended Desktop". I found no configuration that gives the option to show which monitor the application must be in full screen.
Is there anything we can do about it?

That's annoying, isn't it?
It's why I quit using iTunes in full screen.
I play my movies in VLC and "maximize" the window so I can keep working on the other display. I don't knwo of any other way aorund it.

On my Mac, when I exit "full screen" with ICAL, ICAL disappears. It appears to slide off to the right side of the screen.

How do I watch BBC iPlayer in full screen with flash player 10.1

I was able to watch BBC iPlayer in full screen with Firefox. I can now only watch full screen with IE.
Why can I not watch iPlayer in full screen with Firefox anymore?
== After Flashplayer 10.1 installed

I have tried in safe mode and as expected it makes no difference. I am still not able to view in full screen like IE it just shows a blank white screen. I was able to view full screen with the same extensions before so removing them has not made any difference.
Thank you for your reply anyway.

Odd... went to get cuppa coffee, came back my monitor was BRIGHT orange, full screen,, with slight vertical rib pattern, kind of like corrugated cardboard... very slight pattern... what gives.... oh,, everything was frozen, no cursor no keyboard, zip.

Used back off button. Turned it back on, everything normal...
Had lots of sudden closures like this lately... but usually gray, black, deep blue screen... a couple with the same vertical corrugation pattern only in two shades of pale gold, or grays... what good times we have with apple... never know what'going to be looking back at you next. But BRIGHT ORANGE? Help???

Sounds like the graphics card. Run the Hardware Test in extended. Not a great diagnostic, but should pick up something really blatant like this.

Toggle Full Screen with lingo?

Hi there,
I have just got a Mac mini 10.6.2 and I'm testing exporting mac projectors from Dir11.5 on XP.
What I'd like to achieve is to swap between two states whilst playing the projector.
State 1: Small draggable Windowed state with title bar and Mac Dock / desktop visible.
State 2: Pure 800x600 Full Screen with No Dock or title bar visible.
I am using BuddyAPI successfully to switch monitor screen modes to 800x600 and back again to native res.
My problem is, if I want to hide the dock and title bar, I seem to have to publish with the "Full Screen" checkbox ticked in the publish settings. This means when I switch back to native res windowed mode there is the solid movie background colour hiding the mac desktop and dock (as you'd expect).
Is there a way to turn full screen (black out the desktop and dock) on and off during runtime with lingo?
I know its a long shot, but though I'd check with the pros before assuming it's not possible.
Cheers
Richard Smith

My understanding is that Flash will not allow you to do that.
Full screen mode is invoked only if explicitly requested from
within the flash on mouse events.

Gallery Images: How to make clear PNG's open in full screen with a white background?

Hi,
So in the Life on Earth textbook, there is an image of an ant that has no background, so when you pick it up, you can see the text below without the standard "white box" around it.
I've scorwed the internet looking for answers but couldn't find any.
Please see the photos snapped from my phone of this:
Unfortunately... When I try to achive this, my images open on a black background.
I can achive the pick up.
Would really appreicate the help. Thanks...
Grant

Well, if I put a white background in my image, it opens in full screen with a white background. But has a white square when I pick it up:
This is with a 2028 x 1496 image same as above, just no background - came out of Illustrator - and this has the effect I want, as the first post but still opens to full screen with a black background.
Thanks for the help... Hope to get this one figured out!
