Full screen flicker when roll over with trackpad

Whenever I start a movie this annoying light grey flashing starts around the screen, once the pause menu disapeers it stops, its really bothersome because it does it with closed captioning and whenever I try the pause the movie, any ideas to fix this problem would be great!

It has nothing to do with Apple computers. It has to do with aspect ratio. We are moving away from the 4:3 of the old CRT monitors & televisions. Go buy a widescreen monitor for your PC & the "problem" will be the same.
My widescreen TV has the ability (as do most) to use the entire screen, but the cost is that it stretches & cuts off some of the image. This is not too bad when watching TV or video, but playing a game this way would be maddening!
Some newer games can be set to use a widescreen aspect ratio, and there are "hacks" available for some others. I suggest looking for a forum on the games you play most & see if people there have a definitive answer for you.
Also, look real close at the settings & play with them. The aspect ratio you are looking for is 16:10. Just take a look at this article on Wikipedia. I assure you it is not "Apple" that is creating this mess!

  • Pb with handCursor when rolling over text embedded in a MC

    Hi,
    I have a little pb when creating movieClip buttons containing
    a textField.
    Indeed when rolling over the button, and precisely rolling
    over the text contained in my button, the handCursor is replaced by
    the normal arrow. How can I prevent that? I mean having the
    handCursor displayed over the whole button, not only outside the
    textField areas?
    If you don't see what I mean, please consider the following
    simple code , you will see that when rolling over "HELLO" the
    handCursor disaoppears :
    import flash.display.MovieClip;
    import flash.text.*;
    var buttonClip=new MovieClip();
    buttonClip.buttonMode=true;
    buttonClip.useHandCursor=true;
    buttonClip.graphics.lineStyle(1,0x000000,100);
    buttonClip.graphics.beginFill(0xaaaaaa,100);
    buttonClip.graphics.drawRect(0,0,200,20);
    buttonClip.graphics.endFill();
    buttonClip.x=50;
    buttonClip.y=50;
    this.addChild(buttonClip);
    var texte=new TextField();
    texte.text="HELLO";
    texte.selectable=false;
    buttonClip.addChild(texte);
    Thanks for your help,

    I am having a similar problem. I was using MX 2004 and the
    hand cursor displayed over the whole movie, even on loaded movies.
    On movies that will be loaded over the base_level are loaded the
    arrow is never displayed, and is always a hand. When the movies are
    viewed separately the arrow changes to hand cursor as it should.
    With the exception of the base movie which is always the hand
    cursor. I did find code for mx2004 to correct this, but it would
    mean that i would need to add code to every instance on the stage
    across 6 loadedMovies, and the base level.
    Does the CS3 document class correct this action? If so, how
    do i find out what code to use.

  • I have a new Macbook Pro.  When watching Youtube videos, it works perfectly until I attempt to watch the video in full screen.  When in full screen, the video freezes immediately and the audio continues.  When minimized it works fine as before. Help?

    I have a brand new Macbook model A1502.  I am taking online college classes that incorporate youtube tutorial videos.  I can watch the videos if I don't maximize the screen to full screen.  When in full screen, the video freezes immediately and the audio continues uninterrupted.  I can press escape and go back to the previous screen and the video continues to play with no problems.  Can anyone help me please?  This machine is literally just out of the box with maybe an hour of use.  Thanks in advance

    First, back up all data immediately, as your boot drive might be failing.
    There are a few other possible causes of generalized slow performance that you can rule out easily.
    Reset the System Management Controller.
    If you have many image or video files on the Desktop with preview icons, move them to another folder.
    If applicable, uncheck all boxes in the iCloud preference pane.
    Disconnect all non-essential wired peripherals and remove aftermarket expansion cards, if any.
    Check your keychains in Keychain Access for excessively duplicated items.
    If you have more than one user account, you must be logged in as an administrator to carry out this step.
    Launch the Console application in the same way you launched Activity Monitor. Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Select the 50 or so most recent entries in the log. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V). You're looking for entries at the end of the log, not at the beginning.
    When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Important: Some personal information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting. That should be easy to do if your extract is not too long.

  • Want an option to having a REAL full-screen view when in writing mode in Word (as there was in 2003)

    For the present Word version (365) I have not found a way to be able to use the entire/total/really full screen estate when using writing mode in Word. (Perhaps there is a way, not discovered by me yet?) But what I want both in Word 365 and foremost in the
    next iteration of Word, is the option to choose - when in writing/editing mode - the entire screen real estate, with NO columns on each side of the screen and with NO Ribbon or other stuff on top and nothing at the bottom of the screen either. 
    This must be possible to establish as an option?! 
    The Word 2003 had such a feature, but it (completely?) disappeared as an option from 2007 and later, as far as I can see, and this lack of being able to choose using a totally blank screen, from bezel to bezel, with no other things than what you write on
    it, is for me and many other writers, who often also use a machine with a rather small screen, a significant missing feature! 
    As I see it, the real estate that is "given away" to give space to the two vertical columns (to give a for me the unnessary and unwanted "impression/illusion" of having to deal with a sheet of paper placed on the middle of the screen),
    this real estate should instead be used as a typing "place". In other words: Many writers and others would really like to be able to use ALL the screen from left to right and from top to bottom to be filled with letters and words! 
    Can and will this technically be done? So that we again (as in 2003) can be given the option to choose (real) full-screen view? 
    I would really like to get some positive feedback from developers and decision makers in the Word developer team at Microsoft about the possibility of re-establishing this now seemingly missing option. 

    Hi,
    Thank you for your feedback.
    As far as I know, this is currently not available in Office 2013. We are sorry that at this time we are not able to edit documents in a full screen mode that "with NO columns on each side of the screen and with NO Ribbon or other stuff on top and
    nothing at the bottom of the screen either. "
    We have passed this information to the product group for consideration for a future product or update.
    Please be assured that our developers strive to capture Microsoft users' ideas and are working hard to create a more powerful and easy-to-use product.
    Thanks for your understanding.

  • Screen Flicker when swiping to home screen?

    Has anyone noticed a screen flicker when swiping from page 2 to page 1 of apps? Happens every single time. It only flickers when arriving at page 1 from page 2 of apps, never in any other page or search screen.
    I have a 16GB iPhone 4. Never saw this on a 3G iPhone with iOS 3.1.3

    I got my iPhone 4 replaced 8-7-10 (3rd) iPhone 4. Yes I see that flicker as well. I'm extremely disappointed in apple. I had the iPhone 3G and got that phone replaced 4 times. Now I'm on my 3rd iPhone 4, why do the iPhones have so many problems? Whenever I go to an apple store I see tons of customers getting their iPhones replaced. We pay a lot of money for this phone and in the end the phone has problems which results in multiple replacements. We buy apps, movies, music, cases, batteries etc. Apple boasts about how great the iPhone is, I've yet to see that "great" iPhone.

  • Make Flash player window full screen automatically, when it's opening

    Hi, all.
    It's today I joined Adobe forums so, I don't know much about community guidlines and functionality here. So, pardon me if I do any mistake or something.
    This is my problem...
    I'm creating an interface with Adobe Flash Catalyst and I want it to be written to a CD and distributed to clients.
    When I publish swf, I cannot find an option to make flash player full screen.
    I want my SWF file to be opened in full screen mode when the user opens it.
    To the best of my knowledge, I think, I cannot do it with Catalyst as it doesn't have coding facilities.
    I hope Flash Builder is helpful with kind of times. But I know nothing about FB. Do you know how to do it with Flash Builder ?
    ( I mean, open my Catalyst project in Builder, then make the edits or something to make Flash player full Screen when opening )
    Thanks a lot,
    Tharindu.

    TextI have the same problem my flash player which is 9

  • Linked images "jump" when rolled over

    When rolling over an image being viewed on a page in IE/Mozilla, it seems to "jump" if it is linked to a larger version of the same image.  Am guessing it is a setting in Page Properties, but I believe I've changed just about everything with no luck. 
    The actual code of an example is: <td width="250"><div align="center"><a href="http://www.meistersoftware.com/images/tmp_pkg.jpg"><img src="images/tmp_pkg_tn_f8.jpg" width="140" height="101" alt="sc tmp" /></a></div></td>

  • Full Screen Hide Panels Not Working with Mac

    They worked during my trial, but not since I purchased Lightroom.  One thing that has changed is that I upgraded from OS 10.4 to 10.6 with Snow Leopard.  Having the Full Screen Hide Panel mode is crucial to me since I work on a laptop and I need to see images as large as possible.  Please help!

    Ian,
    Thank you very much.  Just to be clear (if I'm capable of it clarity which I doubt), neither the hitting shift + function + "f" key, nor going to the Window list and going to "Screen Mode" and selecting "Full Screen and Hide Panels" works.  When I return to the screen mode option after having chosen "Full Screen and HIde Panels" the check is on "Full Screen".  When I click on "Full Screen and Hide Panels" the Lightroom screen goes from "Full" to "Normal" if it had been at "Full" and goes to "Full" if it had been at "Normal", but never does it go completely full and entirely hide the panels so that there is nothing but image, with no panel markers at its border.  That is how I remember it working during my trial.
    Ian, "trash the existing preferences file"?  What then?  Don't I need it?  Do I get a new one?

  • How to stay in full screen mode when the movie is end

    for some commercial reason, I need quicktime to stay in full screen mode when a movie playing is end.How can I config it? Thanks a lot.

    You can place what i called a sprite in the video.
    http://homepage.mac.com/qt4web/sprites/items.html
    Scroll down the web page a little bit and you'll find it. You place the stop sprite a few seconds before the end of the video.
    Right click on or control+click on stopsprite.mov in the above web page to open the sprite in the Quicktime player.
    Click on the sprite movie, 'select all' from the menu. Click on the video you want to stop. Go to about 5 second (more would better) before the end of the video. Hit the key i on the keyboard. Go to the end of the video and hit the key o (Oh). Go back up to Quicktime's menu--->Edit--->Add To Selection & Scale--->Save As and rename the video. Done....
    If for some reason the video doesn't stop add more time....10 seconds before the end of the video.

    how do Iget the contact photo to full screen size when receiving a call after iOs 7.1 update..?

    I went to the link. I selected iPHONE.  There was a big iPhone icon above the comment box -- so I was absolutely, positively on the right page.  I spent five minutes or so crafting a constructive comment as to why I wanted the full photo feature back on incoming calls on iOS7.  Then...i noticed the box below the comment area asked 'What operating system are you on?'.  And the drop down selection list included every operating system since Job's garage days -- but not one single iOS entry.  No iOS entries on an iphone page.  Unless I'm missing something, I think anyone writing a feedback comment is wasting his/her time.
