Full-screen view -- how to switch back to main monitor

I'm sure I'm missing something very obvious here... but somehow I accidentally switched which screen the full-screen view is on (I think by hitting option-s while in full-screen?) - and now I cannot get it back to my external monitor from my small laptop screen.
I've tried switching settings in Viewer Mode, Toggle Primary, view options, etc. -- and notghint will get it back to the large monitor...
Help!!
Thanks

Thanks for getting back. It's not the system monitor prefs either -- the menu bar has always been on the external monitor. (Just to make sure, I did switch the menu bar back & forth in system prefs, just to see if it fixed it -- it didn't) Literally, nothing changed in aperture or in my system --- fullscreen has always been on the external monitor for months -- then while viewing in full-screen, the fullscreen image suddenly popped over to the laptop screen. Now fullscreen images only show on the laptop. It's quite frustrating -- I think I might have stumbled on a bug.

  • Full screen mode: How to switch between open windows?

    Hi There,
    Is there way to get CMD + ` working in full screen mode?
    Other shortcuts like CMD + OPT [ ] to switch between open tabs and CMD + TAB to switch apps seem to work - but without the ability to switch between open windows within the same app, full screen mode is kind of useless.
    Any pointers in the right direction would be much appreciated.
    BTW I'm using Yosemite but the forums won't find a Yosemite community (not sure the community search is working properly)
    Cheers

  • Can't get full screen view- how do I expand the browser window to full screen

    A portion of the available screen is used to display open tabs. I want the browser to fill the whole view screen. Is there a way to do this? I am running Firefox on an android tablet.

    You should be able to "swipe" the tabs list away. Press with your finger near the line that separates the tab list from the webpage, and drag to the left.

  • How to get back to Full Screen View?

    I have been opening images of one of my iPhoto albums in Full Screen View adding four or five more images from the thumbnails row to see them simultaneously. So they appeared in a smaller size to fit the screen. But now whenever I want to open one of the images of this album in Full Screen View they only show in the smaller size in the Full Screen View window. I cannot get them back to real Full Screen size. Is there a simpel button that I have overlooked or what else could be the problem? Thanks for any help.
    Moriaan

    Yes I have, the slider can go to the max, the image becomes bigger but does not go to the full Full Screen View. When I try an other image from this same album the same thing happens again, in a flash it opens big (full screen) but instantly goes to a smaller size. Even though I open only one image it takes on the size as though it had to share the full screen with five other images. However if I open an image from a different album everything works oke, I press the Full Screen View button and I get the full screen as it should be. Only this particular album where I opened several images in one Full Screen View before gives this problem.

  • How can I exit from full-screen View?

    On the View menu, I clicked "Full screen View", but then I couldn't find any way back to normal view. I had to Force-Quit Firefox to escape.
    How do you exit from Full Screen View?
    (I tried Esc, Ctrl-C, and many other key combinations)
    Thanks, PeterR

    Try F11.

  • How to leave full-screen view in Acrobat LE on HTC Touch Diamond?

    Hello
    I have entered full-screen mode in Adobe Acrobat LE on my HTC Touch Diamond, but I cannot leave full-screen mode. There is nowhere on the screen that gives me a button to leave full-screen mode?!
    I have tried using the buttons below the touch-screen but I have found nothing that works.
    How do I leave full-screen mode??

    Hello again.
    Well I have tried almost everything with the stylus: Zoom operations (rotations), tapping the screen, pressing and holding, double tapping... nothing allows me to exit fullscreen nor get any on-screen menus to appear!
    I must admit that I am very new to the HTC Touch Diamond so maybe I am being stupid, but I really can't find any way of getting any menus or anything else to show up once I have entered full-screen viewing. My only option is to exit Acrobat by pressing the back button below the touch screen, and then I of course leave Acrobat completely.
    Please tell me how exactly I must use the stylus to exit fullscreen?
    Thank you :-)

  • 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.

  • How to get a true "full screen" view without the edit tools?  The help manual promises such a view.

    How do I get a true "full screen" view in the new version of Iphoto without the edit tools showing?  Weirdly enough, the help manual promises such a "full" view, which was always available in my earlier version of Iphoto.
    Thanks, in advance.

    Click on the Edit button to get into Edit mode. Click on it again to come out of edit mode.

  • 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.

  • I accidently click for a full screen view on Firefox and now I can't undo it. My bar with tools, bookmarks, etc. is not visible. As the browser opens, the bar appears but then jumps up where it can't be reached. How do I turn off the full screen?

    Co-el, This wasn't possible as there wasn't a navigation bar available. The F11 did the trick though. Thanks for adding to the discussion.

  • How do I get out of "full screen" view?

    How do I get iTunes out of the "full screen" view?

    The "full screen" button that was on the left in Mavericks has been removed and is now the green dot (or rightmost of the three) on the left side of application windows now.
    If you prefer shortcuts you can also use control+command+f to move in and out of full screen mode, assuming the app(s) you are using support full screen.

  • Don't have full screen view since changing to 19 inch screen. Have about 2 inches of white space on each side. Changed to compact view and then back. No change

    I got a larger monitor and flat screen (19 inch). Since changing I am not getting a full screen view of home page. I changed the page options to compact view and then back, but no change. I've got about 2 inches of white on each side of the home page view.

    When going to a website the picture was small - tried changing the Zoom size , tried Zoom Reset - the text did change size but the layout distorts - found under View - Zoom - Zoom Text Only was checked --- Removed this check mark and the website returned to normal size and Zoom worked normally again. I am 99.9999% sure I did NOT check this myself and there is no one else on the computer to cause it. Maybe this will help.

  • My f11 key will not open my page up to full screen view. How can I fix this

    The f11 key will not open up to full screen view.

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
    See:
    * [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
    * [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    * Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    * Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
