How to hook hdmi and show full screen

I have a new mini diisplay -hdmi cable. When I hook to my flat screen it shows the pictures using about 1/8 the TV screen. How do I get it to show full screen?

Hi woodchopper123,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
You may need to adjust the display settings on your Mac, for example to match the resolution of your TV. See this article for more information:

  • How do I play iTunes TV shows full screen on a connected display?

    I have connected my HDTV via DVI to HDMI cable and I want to play the TV shows I've dowloaded FULL SCREEN ON THE TV. When I selected full screen, it defaults to playing the show full screen on my macbook and not my TV. I just want to change it so that full screen happens on the TV, not the macbook. HELP!

    You can mirror the displays as you said or just drag the iTunes window to the second display (TV). Then it will play in full screen only on the TV, however your computer screen will go black. Either way you will have no access to your iTunes controls.
    If you want to use your computer while it is playing full screen on the TV, then use QuickTime Pro (not in mirror mode) and choose Present Movie, then click on the display you want it on (TV).

  • How to auto rotate Images on Full Screen Slideshow if pictures were taken mixed Portrait and Landsca

    In Muse: How to auto rotate Images on Full Screen Slideshow if pictures were taken mixed Portrait and Landscape

    There is no way that Muse would automatically rotate the images. What you can instruct Muse to do is whether you want to show all image content and leave blank space in either direction OR scale the image to fill the frame resulting in some cropping, but filling the otherwise blank space.
    The options are Fit Content Proportionally and Fill Frame Proportionally respectively.

    No. Modern browsers are designed to protect users from that
    kind of
    manipulation. Typically, web users don't want their browsers
    windows
    manipulated.

  • I accidently click for a full screen view on Firefox and now I can't undo it. My bar with tools, bookmarks, etc. is not visible. As the browser opens, the bar appears but then jumps up where it can't be reached. How do I turn off the full screen?

    I accidently clicked for a full screen view on Firefox and now I can't undo it. My bar with tools, bookmarks, etc. is not visible. As the browser opens, the bar appears but then jumps up where it can't be reached. How do I turn off the full screen without access to view options?

    Co-el, This wasn't possible as there wasn't a navigation bar available. The F11 did the trick though. Thanks for adding to the discussion.

  • HT1245 Why does my caller I.D. photos show as a small thumbnail in the upper right corner and not full screen? I have used both photos I have synced and photos I have taken, yet others have full screen photo I.D.'s.

    Why does my caller I.D. photos show as a small thumbnail in the upper right corner and not full screen? I have used both photos I have synced and photos I have taken, yet others have full screen photo I.D.'s. I have looked onlime at several threads and there are no real answers as to what I need to do or am doing wrong.

    I am also having this issue.
    I've just spoken to someone in the Apple Support Centre who advised me that since the product is in beta, he is unable to assist. I wanted to find out whether someone was able to delete the data for me, or 'reset' the photos app somehow. This apparently cannot be done. He suggested I provide feedback via the feedback page, which I will do, but to be honest doesn't fill me with a lot of confidence in the issue being fixed.
    I also deactivated the service and waited the 30 days for the pictures to be deleted - this should have been completed in mid-January. Instead, my iCloud.com Photos page is now showing the photos that should have been deleted as grey squares, just as you described. I am also unable to delete these photos; every time I try, I get the same message about a server error.
    I am also unable to disable the service by enabling and then disabling it on my iPhone. Each time I have tried this it hangs on uploading for several hours, with the progress bar not moving at all. When I disable it on my iPhone, the web app remains unchanged.
    If anyone has had this issue and has managed to fix it, PLEASE share your wisdom. I am out of patience!

  • How do I get out of "full screen" view. When I put my crusor at the top of the screen I get SOME menus showing, but nothe the "firefox" drop-down where I selected full screed (I was just trying to zoom out, actually)

    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 restore my wifi setting back to the factory settings? I have changed it somehow :/ and now my wifi will not connect. My Airport is on and showing full strength but will not connect.

    How do i restore my wifi setting back to the factory settings? I have changed it somehow :/ and now my wifi will not connect. My Airport is on and showing full strength but will not connect.

    Ok, if other devices are connecting but just not your MacBook then let's start troubleshooting the MacBook to possibly find out why.
    Please try each of the following, in order, until hopefully resolved:
    Note the following are excerpts from an OS X Daily article.
    * Turn Airport on & off – You can do this via the Airport menu bar or from the Network Preferences. This is the first thing you should try when troubleshooting Mac wireless problems.
    * Make sure Wireless/Airport card software & firmware is up to date – This is usually done just by going to the Software Update menu, if there are any updates available for your Mac or Airport, install them.
    * Delete and recreate connection – Try deleting and recreating/reestablishing the wireless connection, sometimes a setting can be corrupted and this may fix it.
    * Create a new Network Location – Similar to the above suggestion, try creating a new and different wireless network location to see if it resolves the connection problems.
    * Change DHCP auto settings to manual – sometimes there is a problem with the DHCP server, and if you manually set an IP address on the network you can be fine. Remember to set the IP to a high number so it wouldn’t interfere with other DHCP machines. As long as you have the subnet mask, router, and DNS settings configured manually as well, this shouldn’t be a problem.
    * Flush the DNS cache – Launch the Terminal and enter the following command onto one full line within the Terminal: dscacheutil -flushcache
    * Zap the PRAM – Reboot your Mac and hold Command+Option+P+R during restart until you hear another chime, let the Mac boot as usual.
    * Delete Wireless Config files – Delete com.apple.internetconfigpriv.plist and com.apple.internetconfig.plist files from ~/Library/Preferences and reboot
    * Trash your home directories SystemConfiguration – Remove all files within ~/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/ and then reboot your Mac.
    * Reset your Mac’s System Management Controller (SMC) – For MacBook and MacBook Pro’s: Shutdown the MacBook/Pro, remove the battery, disconnect the power, hold the Power Key for 15 seconds. Replace the battery, reconnect power, and zap the PRAM and wait for 2 chimes before letting the keys go. Let boot as usual.

    Any idea how to open this window in full screen?
    Highly appreciate your help.
    Thank and Regards
    Pramod

    Hi Pramod,
    This FPM navigation is achieved using settings made in Launchapd Customizing ( LPD_CUST ).
    a) Execute Tran LPD_CUST
    b) Go to Role HAP - Double Click to open it.
    c) Open the second folder on the LHS menu - there you will find 2 entries
    d) Click on second entry - in the entry setting you can see that it is configured for WD Application  - HAP_MAIN_DOCUMENT
    e) Click on button Show Advanced Parameters
    f) There you will find a input box named as Window Features - here you can specify window features like
    height=700,width=1100,position=center,menu=no,status=no,location=no,menubar=no,status=no,toolbar=no
    save the settings come out and test ur app again.
    change the height and width and other features as per ur req.
    Regards

  • How can I run applications in full screen on my MacBook Pro?

    I recently started using an external HP w1858 monitor as a secondary display with my MacBook Pro. I'm having troubles with running applications in full screen mode on the secondary display. How can I run applications in full screen mode on the secondary monitor?

    If you always have the external display connected, you can configure the OS to consider it as the default or main display. Once everything is connected and set to your liking (resolution, color depth, etc.), "bless" the external display by clicking & dragging the menubar from the Mac's internal display onto the external. This only works if you are not using video mirroring.
    Once this is done, applications will open by default on the external and now "main" display and you can configure them to go fullscreen or whatever.
