Hi, have eyesight dissability, need to increase font size in all menu bars for my brand new G5

Pepe

System Preferences>Universal Access. Or change the resolution to 1344 X 840. System Preferences>Displays.
BTW if you have a MacBook Pro it is not a G5. It is an intel Mac. G5 Macs were discontinued years ago.

  • How do you increase type size in menu bars and panels?

    I recently abandoned my Mac Pro 1,1 for a shiny new Mac Pro cylinder running Mavericks 10.9.5. I have paired it with an LG 27" IPS display. The reason I am using the LG is because I was frustrated that Apple pays absolutely no attention to the pleas of their pro users for a non-reflective display.
    And now I find that the type in the menu bars and panels is so small that it literally causes me eyestrain - and that I can't increase the type size. I am older (62), but I still need to use my Mac to survive. Unfortunately, though, it appears that Apple designers have again ignored the needs of their pro users -  in this case, older ones.
    I have been a graphic designer and a producer of technical and marketing publications for over 35 years, and I appreciate good-looking design -  but the real measure of design is usability. Even great-looking design must be user friendly.
    So now I am wondering if Apple interface designers are amateurs, or if they just don't give a @#$% about their users.
    Did I miss it? Is their a way to increase type size in menu bars, etc.?

    Did I miss it?
    Yes.
    System preferences > Displays > Resolution ...
    choose "Scaled" and pick an alternate resolution.
    When you do this, text will be drawn as if your screen were actually set to that revolution, but graphics will be drawn full-scale at the native resolution.
    This feature was invented for Retina Displays, and has finally been made available for additional displays.

    You can use some extensions to achieve this.
    * Theme Font & Size Changer: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/theme-font-size-changer/
    You can use the NoSquint extension to set font sizes (text/page zoom) and text colors on web pages.

  • How to increase font size on Safari browser itself?

    Hello All
    I have been using my iMac for only a couple of weeks now, but during that time I have searched high and low for a setting to adjust the size of the font on the Safari browser - NOT the text on the web pages it displays (I figured that bit out!), the text on the actual browser frame itself e.g. the bookmark title, the titles displayed on the tabs etc
    I also have not figured out how to increase the size of the text on the navigation bar at the top of my iMac where all of the available options for the program in use are displayed (file, edit, view and so forth)...
    I am very pleased with the Mac overall, but the issue of these tiny weeny text sizes on the Mac navigation systems is a problem - anyone with real eyesight troubles would certainly be in a pickle!
    Hopefully someone here will know what to do - I guess I just haven't found the secret yet!
    Thanks!

    Greetings,
    Sorry, but you can't change the size of the fonts or the menus in application windows. They aren't that small, so if you have trouble seeing them, you can use the Zoom feature of Universal Access to enlarge everything you move your mouse over. It's in System Preferences.

  • Please help! How to increase font size in RemoteApp?

    I have weak-sighted user.
    There is some RemoteApp running on Windows Server 2008 R2 Standatd x64.
    I need to increase scale of fonts to 125% and use 120 dpi fonts for this user.
    But  increasing scale of fonts disabled on RDP Session.
    Option to use 120 dpi font doesn't exist.
    On Windows Server 2003 I can locally increase scale and dpi and this apply for RDP sessions of all users.
    If I locally increase font scale on Windows 2008 R2 this doesn't apply on RDP Session.
    I tried to use desktop customisation to increase fonts of Windows Title, Menu and etc for this user. But I can't increase system fonts on dialogs. 
    Please help me to increase font size for my RemoteApp.

    This is an old thread, but the problem persists on W.Server R2
    Interestingly, as Microsoft removed this functionality to solve this problem, wich in my case, with thin client's connected to the server, the problem is aggravated.
    It seems that there is not the slightest intention to solve this problem by Microsoft, since it is understood that each end-user settings, is completely independent of the configuration that should be the default Server or System Confg.

  • I WIH TO KNOW HOW TO INCREASE FONT SIZE

    I have CS4 Extended version of photoshop and due to eyesight problem I am now having trouble reading headings such as file, edit etc on the menu bars and also headings noting details of the thumbnail prints. Can someone explain to me in detail how I can increase the size of the font in these sections.
    Any help appeciated
    Regards Stack

    Adobe is still "working on the problem in cooperation with Microsoft, and no time line is available".
    There is no satisfactory solution at the moment. One method is to reduce the resolution of your screen - but that leaves you with a fuzzy looking display and reduces your workspace a lot.
    Another is a hack that will scale the entire thing up, but it's not ideal either.
    http://forums.adobe.com/message/6004501
    Photoshop users have been asking for this very basic GUI feature for at least a decade now, and it is still unresolved - hopefully this will be solved sooner rather than later.
    And when it is solved you can be assured only CC and perhaps CS6 will get patched - no luck for older versions.
    A third solution is to purchase a large sized television (42" or so) and use that. Or use the built-in magnifier function in Windows.
    Yes, a bit of a silly situation, really.

  • How to increase Font Size in whole system ?

    Hi,
    Iam definitely lost. Iam using my Mac mini as home tv media center and the resolution on TV is 1920 (FULL HD). The problem is that all the letters are so tiny.
    Please can you help with set up the system. And of course excuse my english.
    Thank you
    A.P.

    That's a problem
    You can increase the font size on the Desktop, you can increase the dock size, you can increase the font size in browser, but you CAN'T increase the size of the menu bar and menu items.
    Can also zoom in (System Preferences -> Universal Access -> Seeing -> Zoom -> On
    But that makes a) the display very pixelated and b) you have to scroll around through the content.
    Would be nice if Apple would make the GUI of Lion resolution independent scaleable

  • How to increase font size in the report when emailed as PDF

    How do I increase the font size of the report when I distribute the report as PDF to the users. I tried using different paper sizes in the LayOut tab in Broad Caster and Orientations. When I open the PDF from the mail I see the report shrinked and not readable, but when I magnify the report the numbers are visible with no loss in quality. I cannot give the users to print a shrinked PDF file. I would like to see a visiable font and print the same size what I see.

    The size of the font is increased by selecting a bigger page size while emailing. This will automatically increase the size of the page.

  • How to increase font size in captions

    Does anyone know if it is possible to increase the font and size of the captions?
    Thanks

    Michelle,
    This subject came up yesterday:
    Kenneth Liffmann, "HOW DO I : Add caption to photos; show captions when photo prints" #1, 14 Jan 2007 12:44 pm
    1. The output of the text tool is tied, to a greater or lesser degree, to the resolution of the image. It is advisable to have the image resolution in the 240-300px/in range for printing. Go to Image>resize>image size
    2. You can add text to appear on the picture itself using the text tool. When you type the text, it will be on its own layer. You may select font& font size after highlighting the text, just as you would in a conventional word processing program. In addition, you can warp the text - Layer>type>warp text
    3. If you want the product description to appear below the picture against a neutral background rather than being superimposed on the picture itself, you can do that as I outlined in my post in yesterday's thread referenced above.
    Please let us know how you make out and feel free to repost.

  • How to increase fonts size in safari permanently ?

    My 24" iMac has a huger screen. However, this is of no benefits bcos whenever I launch Safari, the fonts & wordings are so small !!
    I can increase it by clicking VIEW > MAKE TEXT BIGGER.
    The problem is after I quit Safari & launch Safari the next time round, the fonts are back to the super small wordings. And I have to repeat clicking VIEW > MAKE TEXT BIGGER again !!
    Would appreciate if someone here can teach me how to set the default size to a big fonts size ?
    Thanks

    Thanks Andrew, that is exactly what I wanted.
    But if I increased, sometimes the words overlapped each other. How to avoid that ?
    What is the difference between the font size settings in
    Safari > Preferences > Advance > "Never use font sizes smaller than"
    as against the two font size settings in here:
    Safari > Appearance > "Standard Font" and "Fixed Width Font" ?
    Thanks
