How do I make the windows full screen?

I would like my windows in Safari and other programs to run full screen - I mean I paid for 24" not 19" lol. I tried the green button it didn't work. I just unboxed it a couple of hours though so obviously I'm very new to this.

This actually brings up a fairly good point: only a tiny subset of web sites are intended to be seen at the full width of a 24" monitor! Human beings are very poor at reading comprehension when confronted with incredibly wide lines of text.
It's even worse if the web site is a fixed width, as most are nowadays: why would you want a Safari window to display huge swaths of blank background to the left and right of the content? Instead, I'd use the space to keep an eye on your mail program in a separate window, watch your buddy list in your preferred IM program, etc.
If you really do want the green button to completely maximize your browser window, though, there's an easy solution: switch to Firefox 3.5. To provide consistency between the Windows and Mac versions, clicking the green button in Firefox fills the entire screen.

@Naiks, having suffered through unsuccessful synching attempts for Calendar and Contacts myself, l would suggest you try the following:
UNINSTALL iCloud control panel from your PC. Seems silly, but do it.
Go into Outlook, and look at the very top menu. Click FILE, then ACCOUNT SETTINGS, then click the popup box.
You will see a list of all your email accounts. Make sure that ONE of them has a checkmark against it. If not, select the account your want as your default, and click "set as default.
Exit out of Outlook and reboot your machine.
Now reinstall iCloud, check CALENDAR and CONTACTS, and do as instructed when prompted.
Reboot for good luck and now launch OUTLOOK. All that remains is to locate your iCloud Contacts and Calendar files, and make them your default.
IMPORTANT: Don't panic if you can't find your contacts -- they're there. Click CONTACTS and you'll see you have several available contact files. Locate the one label "iCloud" in grey type. Right-click on it, select PROPERTIES, then click the Outlook Address Book tab. Check the box that says something like "Make this my default Outlook Address Book." Keep clicking "apply" and "okay" until you've exited out of the dialog box maze.
You may have to do something similar with your Calendar files. I dd not, but if you need to, do it.
Everything should now sync pretty seamlessly.
I didn't have the exact same problem as you, but my dilemma was close enough. Good luck!

Well I figured it out, right click the arrow that makes the screen bigger and unclick the Hide Toolbar. I knew it couldn't be that hard.

Thank you so much. You are absolutely right. I will have to reduce the screen density when I work with those programs.
Thanks for your trouble and regards

How do I make the "Find Panel" (Ctrl-F) more ME friendly?

After quickly resolving and only recently glitch in an older Firefox version (17.0.1) concerning stubborn restore of last sessions upon start up, using now version 27.0.1, I am now frustrated with the Find Panel (using Ctrl-F). How do I revert the Find Panel to older (not to mention MORE PRACTICAL!) version? If a visualization is actually necessary, I found a link that may be helpful: http://s11.postimg.org/qsc5piwr7/ff_find.png .
Focusing ONLY on the Find Panel, the version I am looking for is on
the top, while the newer (not to mention INFERIOR!) version can be
found on the bottom.
If I have to get another version, please let it also be able to use the Norton Toolbar, but I would much rather be given the instructions on how to simply edit the version I have now (27.0.1) so as to change only the Find Panel as I described above.
If you noticed, I'm getting super frustrated and also very picky, but as things Mozilla, Google, etc. go on, making what I suppose they call "progress," they all start to diminish in their functions. I'm not looking for a special looking internet browser, but one that works, user friendly, ME friendly. If Firefox has a few bugs to work out, work `em out, but for heaven's sake, stop altering the orientation of tools in the browser, rendering it far less practical than its wiser ancestral versions. I digress though . . .
I'm using Firefox 27.0.1, extremely loathe the Find Panel (Ctrl-F), how can I switch to an older and
better Find Panel (while at the same time also maintianing compatibility for Norton Toolbar)?

Try the following style in Stylish. It's a fair approximation of the previous appearance.
* https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/stylish/
Once Stylish is installed, open the Add-ons Manager (Ctrl+Shift+A), User Styles category. Click the Write New Style button at the top and paste the following in it. Give the style a name and click the Save button.

The Alt+N and Alt+P keyboard shortcuts no longer work for finding the next and previous occurrence, respectively. You can use F3 or Ctrl+G and Shift+F3 or Ctrl+Shift+G, respectively.
If you want the find bar to remain open when switching tabs, you can use the FindBar Tweak add-on.

How do I make a window full screen and keep my connected monitor separate to utilize with other programs?

I just got a MacBookPro and have an external monitor connected to it. I opened a window to full screen and the connected monitor went to a gray screen while the MBP monitor showed the program in full screen. How can I make them independant so this doesn't happen?

Hello Azul37,
go to your Applications folder and ctrl-click iDVD, then choose "Show Package Contents" from the drop-down menu. Next navigate to the Resources folder, find the theme, duplicate and rename it, then open the copy with the above procedure (choose Full Frame 1 for this - the other one is a bit tricky)
Again navigate to the Resources folder and find a folder named "FullFrameTitle.pox". There are other folders inside - open them one by one until you find a TIFF file with a long name with loads of numbers and delete it. Now the grey bar for the title is gone.
Next launch iDVD and choose your (modified) theme. Import a movie. You'll see the grey bar appear as button under the text. Go to the Settings tab in the Customize pane, select the button options and choose "Text Only". Voilà
Note: I recommend you leave the grey bar for the buttons - it provides better on-screen visibility.
If you are interested in tweaking your iDVD themes I recommend reading here:

QuickView: How can I change the default full screen width of PDFs and JPGs

Hello,
I am very happy with the changes on the new OSX Lion. But I have a disappointment form QuickView. On Snow Leopard I will hit the "Option+Space" to QuickView files (mostly pdf and jpg) on full width and just scroll up and down with the mouse or the arrow keys. Now in Lion, when I press "Option+Space" I get the file on full height. This does not work for me because the information on screen is too small and I end up having to open the file on Preview.
How can I change this settings so they are like on Snow Leopard?
Thanks in advance.

Not only can you set global values for each of the three columns, but you can also set unique column widths on a per community basis like this:
.ptCommunity-1234 .columnOne { width: 635px; border-right:1px solid #CCCCCC; padding-top: 10px; padding-right: 20px; }
.ptCommunity-1234 .columnTwo { width: 240px; padding-top: 10px; padding-left: 8px;}
You can see here my community #1234 has a wide first column and a more narrow column two and even puts a little solid line between them.
It's all in the stylesheets on your imageserver at the path I mentioned earlier. Again, look at the experience definition object in your admin portal and look at the stylesheet name in the dropbox. The stylesheet name you see is mapped to the .css file using the community-themes.txt file in the same ...yadayada/common/public/css folder on the imageserver.
If you have, lets say, a mainstyle1-en.css that only has about a dozen lines dictating only the few items you mentioned before - then it has been stripped at one time because the default that comes w/ an original install is huge and a great starting point. It even has style tips and snippets in comment blocks to tutor you through its gargantuan variety of options.

How can I make the magic mouse screen ARROW bigger?

I need to enlarge the screen ARROW from the magic mouse - it is way too small for me to find it! Is this possible?

Yes it is possible. Go into settings>accessibility>display> then adjust the cursor size slider.

How I can disable the option "Full Screen Multimedia"?

I am creating a PDF that contains a video. I need to disable the option "full multimedia screen" that appears when I press the right mouse button on the video.
I am using Acrobat X PRO.
Thanks !!

My workaround...
- Convert Vedio to SWF (using Media Encoder + Flash Pro or 3rd party utilities)
- Import the SWF Video to Acrobat
- In the "Edit SWF" -> "SWF" -> Select "Pass context menu click to SWF"
- Assign Document Permission to lock the setting
The playback control will pass to Flash Player, it will disable the "View in Floating Windows" and "Full Scrren MultiMedia"

How do you remove the Firefox full screen app

I installed the full screen app to watch videos, but now I have no controls to do anything. I would like to delete the "full screen" app. This is installed on a nexus 10 running 4.2.2 jellybean.

Is it this one: [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/android/addon/full-screen-252573/ Full Screen mobile]? In order to get to the menu, you might need this information from that page:
''To return to normal mode, press and hold on a web page (or press your device's menu button), and choose "Full screen" again.''

Try a PRAM reset. Hold down Command-Option-P-R while booting until the tone sounds for a third time.

Apple how did you make the microphone so good on this phone.

Its so good in fact that i l recorded a few songs with a full band drums and all and it sounds pretty good so cheers apple. http://snd.sc/qZSjkl a song recorded on my iPhone called Carousel Ride.

Okay, narrow is narrow. Just need to make sure we're clear on the point that we're discussing the top and bottom margins.
I just found another post that led me to "Defining Layout Margins" in the Pages help files. Between that post and the information in this help message (specifically item #4), I was able to deduce that Pages does enable me to do exactly what I need.
1 - set the page margins on page one;
2 - create a layout break at the bottom of page 1, which will effect the next page;
3 - with the cursor on page 2, open the inspector;
4 - go to the layout inspector;
5 - change the "before" margin.
In the layout inspector dialog box, "before" = "top" and "after" = "bottom", not as in paragraph or line formatting. I don't know why it couldn't just say top and bottom. That would eliminate a lot of confusion.
This has enabled me to have one top margin on the first page and a different top margin on all other pages. However, as nothing is perfect, this process must be repeated on each page. A little more work but definitely worth the effort, if you need this type of formatting. Better than not at all in other words.
Thanks for your time and help.
