Going full screen takes other screen to black.

This new feature, in Yosemite, automatically takes my other screen to black, when I go to full screen on one screen. How do I turn this off?
Thanks.

Hello Lucio,
The issue you have reported is a known issue with Adobe Reader 7. These full screen issues have been fixed in Adobe Reader 8.1.2 (the current latest version) where the window manager decorations are not shown in full screen mode.
Adobe Reader 8.1.2 has a large number of new features and bug fixes so I would recommend that you upgrade to that. Refer http://blogs.adobe.com/acroread/2008/02/adobe_reader_812_for_linux_and.html for more details.
Also, if you want to know about future release announcements, stay tuned to the official blog for Adobe Reader on Unix at http://blogs.adobe.com/acroread.
Hope this helps.

I have several thousand photos in several folders. I have noticed that whenever I want to change the folder used as the side show source, it takes the Screen Saver Preference pane a very long time to respond. It is as if it is scanning all the photos in the currently assigned folder in order to display them in the preview window provided, and it gets so dogged down doing that it can't respond to my clicks on the Choose Folder option.
Assuming you don't want to redistribute your photos into a greater number of folders or subfolders so there would be fewer in each folder to process, you could try a workaround. Try moving your currently-assigned folder to your desktop temporarily, before opening the Screen Saver preference pane. If the preference pane can't find the old folder, it may immediately ask you to choose a new one. You could hopefully then do so, close the preference pane, and then put back the old folder.
It's my understanding that there will be no future updates to Tiger, only security fixes.

Can a SWF file resize in the PDF when user zooms or goes 'full screen'?

Hi,
I've got some animation in my Indesign file which I've exported as a SWF and brought back in to InDesign.
I then create the Interactive PDF. It has a white background, so I select it in Acrobat and got to PROPERTIES and give it a transparent background.
BUT, when I go full screen or above 75% - the SWF shrinks on page.
The users of this PDF will need to zoom in, or go full screen. I really need the SWF to be resizing as the user goes full screen, or views it however they choose.
Is there a way to set the SWF to resize with the PDF?

Let me guess. You’re using InDesign CS5 and never bothered to install any of the patches.
Download and install 7.0.4.

Screen flashes... or an application goes full screen then disappears??!

A weird and definitely not-normal phenomenon has been happening lately. Somewhat rarely (every 5-6 hours) it seems like my screen flashes. Very briefly.. less than a second. It almost looks as if theres some application that goes full screen, then disappears, or maybe the screen just flashes. Something is definitely not right.
I don't see anything abnormal in my console though... nor in activity monitor. I've checked for loose connections, etc, and ran hardware tests. Cleared SMC and Pram. I consider myself quite computer savvy, and I install almost no applications, and keep everything nicely optimized.
I'm using a Dell 3007WFP-HC display, FWIW.

Some people started having trouble with 8800GT after 10.5.7. Some even went back to 10.5.6 (good reason to always keep a backup boot system with last OS version).
Or start worrying it is the 8800GT going. Easy to test for IF you have an alternate graphics card handy.
Heat. Summer. 8800's don't do enough to kick in and properly cool the card on its own - single slot cards are not good at cooling and venting.

Finder stuck in full screen with black background on one monitor

Just upgraded to Mavericks on launch day and a day or so later when I went to change the new Mavericks desktop backgound with another image, the Finder appears to be stuck in full screen mode, but raising the mouse to the top doesn't reveal the normal drop back to exit full screen. The background is black as well. When looking into what the OS thinks is the background image, it does show the image that I choose, but I can't see it.
I've rebooted and also tried to reset the desktop by going through these steps:
1: Click "Go" at the top of the finder.
2: Hold down the "Option" key and click "Library"
3: Open the "Preferences" folder.
4: Find the file "com.apple.desktop.plist"
5: Rename it to "com.apple.desktop.plist.old"
6: Reboot your computer.
... but this did not resolve the issue. Any ideas?

I don't even have that file in my Preferences folder. It used to be there in Mountain Lion. Now one of my script won't work because of that.
But I don't have similar problem that you described. I can assign different desktop backgroud images just fine.

Permission request for going full screen and border alert removal.

Ok so I play some applications games on facebook and currently everytime I go to full screen via the game it requires me to "allow" the program to go full screen. Also there is always a border alert if my cursor touches it and causes an alert to pop up and tell me what url im connected too. It pops up right in the middle of my screen and has gotten so troublesome I have scoured the internet for possible solutions.
The picture above is the current alert when going to full screen and I want to get rid of this for good after allowing it about 10,000 times enough is enough. How do i shut this off?
this is what i see in the middle of my screen anytime my cursor touches the outer border of my screen which as you can imagine in a high paced gaming situation can be a killer.... I want to keep this from popping up at all I understand i can hit esc to get out of full screen. In fact i got the point the first 50,000 times i saw it.
PLEASE HELP ME !! i am desperate to remove these and have found nothing on the net after searching vigorously.
Thank you in advance for any assistance in this matter.

Check your keyboard settings. Therre are "gaming settings" for things repetitive keypresses, and shortcuts enabling and disabling.

Full screen is black when using windows media player on Equium series

Hi.
When i watch TV on the windows media player so I have problem. If I switch on full screen so there is just black screen but I can hear sounds.
Watching DVD is OK.
I've got my laptop for 4 months but everything was ok.
This problem started just now maybe 2 days ago. I think i've done something but i don't know what and i can't fix it.
I've done restoring OS but it didn't help.
Could you help me please?
Thanks

Hi there,
I know that problem, its just a bug with the media player and the graphics drivers (Its mainly the media player causing the error). Please, if you want to watch something on the TV then the playback must be STOPPED BEFORE you switch the screen. After you switched the screen, activate the playback and it should work.
Otherwise go to the site of www.videolan.org, download the latest version of the VLC player and do it with him, it should work for sure. I never start the playback of some movie or whatever when the screen was not changed before to the TV as the only screen.

Going full screen on you tube

i have an a305-s6905 and while on you tube or any of those other sites when i switch to full screen its just black. any ideas?
Solved!

There is a known bug in Flash Player, which will cause a YouTube display to turn black when full screen. Adjusting the following Flash Player setting should fix it.
While the video is playing, right-click on it and click Settings. Uncheck the box for Enable hardware acceleration.

Full screen mode blacks out my second screen

Help, love fullscreen mode but it blacks out my linked Macbook pro too. How do I stop this?
Hope someone can help.

When you're in full screen - use the same shortcuts when in normal mode to control the Secondary Viewer, ie, Option + M - mirror, Option + A - alternate - Option + S - Span, Option + B - Blank (probably what its set to currently), or Option + X - Desktop

Going full screen in Adobe Reader 7

I have happily used Acroread 5 under SuSE 9.2 on my desktop. Now I moved a latex-generated PDF presentation of mine on a laptop with SuSE 10.2 and Adobe Reader 7, and I've noted what it looks like a non-conformance to the X11 standards.
On my old system I used to hit control-L to go full screen in acroread, and I was correctly seeing only the CONTENT of the PDF document.
With Adobe Reader 7.0 when I go full screen I see also the window manager decorations (title bar and border), which means the bottom part of my slides go off screen.
Since my window manager is fvwm, I tried instructing the window manager not to produce any title bar or decorations. If I invoke Adobe Reader, the window (not in full screen) honours whatever choices I make for the decorations(none, title bar on top or bottom or sides etc.).
However as soon as I go full screen, the choices are not honoured and I get the full decorations (title bar on top and borders). Worse than that, when I leave full screen mode the decorations remain and the wm configuration is not honoured.
I also tried playing with the -geometry switch, but that too is honoured outside of full screen mode only.
My current workaround is to define an accelerator key in fvwm so that I move the title bar off screen after entering full screen mode. But I regard that as unsatisfactory. I'd strongly prefer a stricter X11 compliance (as acroread 5 had)

Interactive widget goes full screen but Review widget does not...

Anyone know why this is or if there is any way to make it go full screen?

I don't know why it won't work fp for you, sorry. Perhaps things are a bit buggy right now. Keep trying and good luck.

External monitor goes full screen

i have a custom two screen layout for Premiere Pro. but one of the monitor starts to play full screen an hides the other windows. Any tips on how to customize the video Playout?
Thanks

sounds like you have mercury transmit enabled, which is sending full screen video to the second monitor. you can turn it off in the preference settings, or from the program monitor in the wrench tool icon menu, "enable transmit".

Hide video before going full screen

I have a button which launches a video and is set to play full screen. How can I hide the video prior to full screen playback? I've tried putting it off stage, but that doesn't work. Hiding it on the layer also doesn't work.
Any ideas?

Yes, Mohammed, that was the trick!
So, I am doing some pretty nifty navigation with masked image sequences which are on auto play and looping, the mask is also a button which launches the video. This is also a great way to draw attention to a particular item on the page.
Anyway, I'm wondering if you know a work around to this - whenever a video is launched and user returns to the page, the image sequences are no longer looping. Is there a way around this? If not, future feature request! ;-)
Also, please support looping video in a future release. Thanks!

Firefox hangs in Facebook, especially when going full screen in a game?

In the last week or so, maybe since installing the new version of Firefox, I have been having problems in Facebook, where it will just crash/hang, especially if I go full screen in a game & I have to command/option/esc to get out. I went in to delete cookies & cache & checked that my plug-ins were up to date & they were fine, except for Java, but since I have a Mac, my Java is updated through the computer. Since this has never caused a problem before, I think it's unrelated. Anyway, does anyone know why Firefox is hanging or crashing all of a sudden in Facebook, especially in games/full screen mode? Thanks..

You can try to disable the hardware acceleration in the Flash Player: [[Cannot view full screen Flash videos]]<br />
(don't know if that is possible on Mac)

Back & forward buttons won't work after going full screen

I have a Logitech cordless mouse. When ever I'm watching a
video, like on You Tube, and I go to full screen, my mouse
back/forward buttons won't work, and I have to re boot my computer.
I have tried every thing Logitech told me to do, but still have the
problem. They think it's a flash player problem. I saw that one
other person in the forums has the same problem. Any ideas?
Thanks, Shawn.

I can't find the preferences section of itunes. where is it because it isn't at the very top of the screen and I didn't see it anywhere else. i hasn't told me that the back-up is corrupted so I don't know about that. I just know that it always comes up with the error message 50 when I try to get the back-up restored to it.
