How can one switch to full screen with OSX system i.e. an Apple. Neither Firefox nor Safari can manage this and so it must be an Apple obstacle. Please lean hard on Apple to encourage them to facilitate this simple request.

Press Function Key 11

You should be able to do that in the next Firefox 4.0 version, so you have to wait for that.

I recently purchased the newest nano. I have 3 other nano's and iPad iPhone, oh and iPod touch. When I plug in nano to my mac I get the message "iPod cannot update because it contains files that are used by another application. How can manage this?

It means that nano was used on a third-party software or synced from different computer to sync music. Does that nano show in iTunes? If yes, then restore completely. If not, then you may need to head to Apple Store and see what they can do.

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?

Typing in search box causes screen to switch to full screen, with no buttons (versions 34.0.5 and 35.0)

When I start to enter a search term into the search field on the top right of the screen the window will switch to full screen mode and all the buttons disappear. If I move the cursor to the top of the screen the resize button appears and I can switch it back. This happens several times a day, but not every time I use the search box. It happens if I have the window maximised or resized to fill less than the monitor screen.
This is hugely annoying. It started happening when I upgraded to version 34.0.5 and is still happening in 35.0.
You have made some changes to the search function as it now automatically gives me an annoying drop down box to choose a search provider. Is this change the cause of this problem?
I am running Windows 7 (64 bit)
Please tell me how to prevent this, it is driving me crazy.
Thanks

Sounds that you switch full screen mode on.
If you run Firefox in full screen mode then press F11 or Fn + F11 to toggle (Mac: Command+Shift+F).

How do I switch to full screen when watcing videos on Yahoo plus7

I'm using a Samsung Galaxy S2 4G. The full screen button as well as pause, volume etc, doesn't work! It works when using the Opera Mobile Web browser, so why not with Mozilla? Any suggestions?

I am one of the individuals who use a third-party app to tether internet connection from my phone for my tablet. When using the stock browser, i have no problems, but when i try to use firefox, all the is displayed is an "Offline Mode" screen. This all would not be a problem except for the fact that a bunch of my bookmarks are on Firefox. So how do i switch settings for the pade to be "Online vs. Offline"???

Neither Firefox nor the profile manager will start. In my task manager, the process is using 50% of my cpu but does nothing. I love browsing with firefox, how can I fix this?

I've tried restarting my computer, the I tried uninstalling and reinstalling, then uninstalling, erasing all firefox files and folders, then restarting and reinstalling. I've also tried opening the profile manager to change my profile. After reinstalling a few times and trying to open the profile manager before launching firef0x, I got the firefox has crashed window and the process in the task manager is still using 50% of my cpu. The most recent expunge then re-download pops up a "file is corrupt" error and won't even install the program.

Kill those processes that you are seeing, including any plugincontainer.exe, only once firefox has stopped running should you try to update it.
Totally unexpected instances of firefox running may sometimes be the result of malware activity.

How to show dock in full screen mode

Hello,
I'm wondering how to get the dock to show up temporarily in full screen mode. When I place my cursor near the bottom of the screen in a full screen app, the dock doesn't pop up. Is this normal and if so, how do I switch between full screen apps without using gestures on the mouse? I'm really hoping that this is a bug.
Thanks

Alternatively you can use the same principle anywhere on the screen, you do not have to scroll to the bottom. Simply move the cursor to the screen edge where your dock is then move the cursor the same direction again. You do have to briefly pause between the two movements but you can do this anywhere the dock is located, it does not have to be at one position on the screen. That should speed things up a bit and prevents the dock from appearing by inadvertently scrolling to the side or the bottom.
If you can, get a Magic Trackpad, Lion navigation works very well with one of these, I think that the days of the mouse are numbered. The numbers of gestures available with the Magic Trackpad is extensive in Lion.

I have a tiny problem that is driving me mad. When I am playing an album in iTunes using cover flow view (with the playlist beneath the artwork picture) the picture is exactly above the album title. All is symmetrical. When I switch to full screen display, the artwork moves a couple of inches to the left and the display is therefore asymmetrical. Why and how do I correct it? It would drive you mad to.
Thanks for any help,
Graham

I was having the same problem, but tried the "Top Button + Home Button" reset and that did work for me. My unofficial guess is that perhaps RAM caches get filled through daily use of various apps leaving no memory for cover flow. Resetting the phone on the phone itself seems to reset that RAM. I can't say it's a cure-all, but it solved my issue. Hope this helps.

A MacBook will use Time Machine to make local backups so that when connected to an external drive it will backup a lot faster.
to disable this, you must use a command under terminal.
to locate terminal, do a search for it under spotlight (the magnifying glass on the top right corner), should be the first hit.
once under terminal, type the following text exactly:
sudo tmutil disablelocal
hit enter.
you will be asked to input your password, if you do not have a password, you will have to create one before performing this command. after entering your password, hit enter again and close terminal.
in a few minutes the space taken up by time machine should be cleared.

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.

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.

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!
