How do you enlarge the type in the menu bar on the macbookpro

Couple comments concerning this:
You cannot make it larger.
On My MacBook Pro it has a high resolution screen. 1152 x 720 resolution is not listed. if you think your type in the menu bar is small, you should see mine!
I personally would never recommend anyone orders on with Hi-Res.
No matter what resolution I use other than 1680 x 1050 ( max listed for my Notebook) the sharpness is not acceptable to me.
Wrote to apple concerning the menu display along with numerous others and have been totally ignored.

Hi Norm,
1. I've been researching, and, with a few exceptions which are not acceptable to me, I believe you are correct.
4. I really have no choice, I have to reduce the res to see text.
5. Apple does not reply to feedback, so don't feel ignored. I've also sent feedback and emailed Jobs, and maybe, someday, after enough of us do that, this will get "fixed." Meanwhile, I'm also often at 1152x720.

  • How do you get the Menu Bar out of Fullscreen mode with Safari?

    When I click on Full Screen mode to watch video the Menu Bar remains at the top of the screen. This just recently happened and its only with Safari because Firefox's Full Screen mode works as it should. I have read many forums with questions similar to mine but none have helped. Please keep in mind when you answer this question that it is NOT JUST WITH YOUTUBE. This is happening with every website that I use to watch videos. I suspect that the update had something to do with this because if memory serves right it happened the last time I updated.

    Im sorry but I figured it out now. I hate when you figure something out right after you do something extreme like signup for a profile here and post a question. Well to those who want the answer all in one shot there are 2 solutions for me.
    1. Make sure Safari is updated completely. You can check by clicking SAFARI> ABOUT SAFARI
    Safari 5.0.5 gave me this problem but the new update is 5.1.2
    2.Glims - Free ad on for Safari which enables you to view you window in COMPLETE full screen at all times, as well as maximise your window to fill all empty space (makes so you dont have to worry about accidentally clicking on your desktop which I do all the time lol). You can use this option once Glims is installed simply by clicking on
    SAFARI> Full Screen
    or
    SAFARI> Maximise Window Size
    By doing Full Screen mode you can then click on the full screen capability on the website you are on

  • How do you resize the menu bars?

    All the menu's keep auto adjusting to show the full text content. This makes my bookmark menu a nightmare. It's become super wide now, and I just want to make it like it was before where it would cut off longer text names.

    That can be caused by having some bookmarks with a long title in the main Bookmarks menu.<br />
    The width of a column in the Bookmarks menu list is in current Firefox versions automatically adjusted to fit the bookmark with the longest name.<br />
    You can check the names of the bookmarks and make the longer ones shorter.<br />

    If you're running Lion, press the escape (esc) key to exit full-screen mode. Otherwise, provide more details, including the Mac OS version and the application you're have trouble with. A screenshot would help.

  • How do you alter the bookmarks bar on an iMac?

    How do you alter the bookmarks bar on an iMac?

    Safari bookmark bar is viewed by clicking on the book icon on the far left side of the bar, and selecting the Bookmarks Bar Collection.
    Drag bookmarks and folders into the Bookmarks bar Collection or directly into the bookmarks Bar if you want them to appear there.   You can edit them right on the spot by clicking on them once.
    If you mean the Dock, the translucent bar that starts at the bottom of the screen (which you can put on the side of the screen), just drag items to the left side of the Dock's divider that are applications you wish to keep a shortcut to.  Folders to the right side.   When you minimize a window with the yellow control, it minimizes to the same side of the divider as the folders and documents you might drag to the Dock.   Note, the Dock is only a shortcut.  Many mistake it for a folder.  It is not.     If you want your application to be dragged out of a DMG you just double clicked, drag it to your Hard drive -> Applications folder.  Dragging it to the Dock will only make it inaccessible when you dismount the image.  And when you trash the image, the application is gone.  Only if you store it in your Hard drive -> Applications folder is it safe.
    If you mean the Finder window left sidebar just drag items into it between the icons already there. Your Finder menu's Preferences allows you to select default folders and devices to show there.

  • I ask the third time: How can I enlarge the menue symbols and the text of the menue in Photoshop CS6 vers.13 so that I can read them??? My laptop has Win 8.1 and a screen resolution of 3840x2160

    How can I enlarge the menue symbols and the text of the menue in Photoshop CS6 vers.13 so that I can read them??? My laptop has Win 8.1 and a screen resolution of 3840x2160.
    It is unbelievable that such an expensive software does not provide a proper lay out wit a high screen resolution!
    It is also unbelivable that it is not possible to get a qualified employee of ADOBE on the phone in Germany.
    hope of feed back: e-mail: [email protected]
