How do I switch out of full screen in OS 10.10
I am really frustrated by some of the features in OS 10.10. When I click on the green button in the top left of a window, the window fills the screen. I can't bring up the doc and I lose my menu bar unless I mouse to the top of the screen. Clicking the green button used to just fill the screen with the window but I could still see the menu bar and access the doc. How do I get out of full screen mode (I can't see any button to click that will do that) so that I can see my menu bar all the time and access my dock. Is there a way to turn off this new green button feature and go back to the old way?

I Don't think Microsoft updated it for those buttons. Look for a blue button with arrows in it on the right side of the menu bar.
Also try Esc key. -

I think the question pretty well summed it up. I selected full screen mode from the "firefox" drop-down box at the top left, but once in full screen mode, the drop-down box is not available. How do I get back to the standard view??
Press the F11 key to toggle into and out of full screen mode.
Or, move the mouse pointer to the top of the screen and right-click the "+" (new tab) button, or in a blank area of the tab bar, or in a blank area after the address box, and exit full screen mode from the context menu. -

How do I get out of "full screen mode" on my tablet?
I don't know how I got into full screen mode first of all and I can not figure out how to get out of full screen mode. I have a tablet, my toolbar with the menu symbol is missing at the top and the bar at the bottom is missing. I don't have any keys with "F" features, so I can't press F11. Does anyone else have this problem? I have windows 8.
Argh. There aren't many things more frustrating than an app hogging your entire screen.
Do you have a compact keyboard? If so, there should be a key labelled ''fn'' and another key which is labelled ''F11'' (maybe in blue writing). Try holding down fn and press the F11 key.
Alternatively touching or swiping right at the very top of the screen should reveal Firefox's toolbar - you can press the [[Image:New Fx Menu]] at the top right and then select ''full screen'' to shrink Firefox back down to size.
Hope those ideas help! :) -

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. -

When viewing a note in the bridge how do you switch to landscape full screen mode?
When viewing notes in the Bridge, there are two modes after pressing messages. One is portrait where the note being viewed shows in full screen after going to it from the inbox list. The other is in landscape where the inbox list is on the left and notes on the right. I want to zoom to a full screen landscape view of the note. I know that the device is capable of displaying a note this was as this is what you see when you touch the icon in the upper left corner to go directly to a new note or an urgent one, but I can't figure out how to get there from the normal note display.

HOW DO I GET OUT OF FULL SCREEN MODE AND BACK TO THE HOME PAGE?
I was at a website and expanded the view to full screen mode. i pressed ESCAPE but it would not return the screen to smaller size. I had to press CONTROL+ALT+DELETE end the session. Now, when I restart Firefox it wants to restore the session. I have no status bar at the top and returning to home page. I hope this information helps.
Thank you very much! I tried that already but did not move the cursor high enough.
Dear Apple designers: please bring back something like a button, to help those who can not find this type of thing. Minimalistic design should be in such way that you find how to do these type of things without going to a forum. -

Hi guys. I cannot seem to find the exit to full screen viewing mode in final cut pro x. Escape key doesn't do the trick. There are no "exit full screen" buttons that pop up. It is confusing and I have to force quit the program every time I use full screen! Please help!
