How to lock bottom control bar from auto-hiding in full screen mode

I am using Flash Player with ie in Win7. It is very irritating while watching YouTube videos for the status/control lbar to keep auto-hiding. When the bar auto-hides, the pause/play position becomes the progress bar position - and a click where Pause used to be resets the video to start. How can I keep the bottom control bar from auto-hiding in full screen mode?
Thank you, Steve  [email: [email protected]]

There's nothing you can do to Flash Player, itself, to prevent this from happening.  Apparently, there's no way to disable via youtube, or google, either  -- http://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/youtube/_E5yFvNJCPk
You SHOULD be able to call up the bar by hovering the cursor at the bottom of the screen and then, after a a second or two,  click on the pause button.    (It shouldn't restart the video in other words.)  But, if for whatever reason,  this doesn't work,   just click once in the center of the screen to pause the video.   To restart,  click the center of the screen again.

  • When I open iTunes it will automatically go to full screen mode. I can't work out how to turn this off. Only iTunes opens to full screen mode.

    Go to System Preferences (under the Apple logo in the menu bar).  Choose "General".  Click "Always close windows when quitting an application".
    That should fix it.

  • How can I stop the address bar from auto hiding

    I dislike having the address bar disappear all the time. How can I prevent this.

    Make sure that you do not run Firefox in full screen mode (press F11 or Fn + F11 to toggle; Mac: Command+Shift+F).

    If you are in full screen mode then hover the mouse to the top of the screen to make the Navigation Toolbar and Tab bar appear.<br>Click the Maximize button (top right corner of the Navigation Toolbar) to leave full screen mode or right-click empty space on a toolbar and choose "Exit Full Screen Mode" or press the F11 key.

  • How to stop the tab bar from automatically hiding itself?

    ive only found how to stop the address bar from disappearing and everyone with the tab problem seems to have posted this over a week ago and still hasnt been fixed yet if noone has a fix im out and done with firefox they can suck a fat one
    why add this feature! i can understand the address bar but not the tabs all you have to do to hide it was push the tab button again and its gone was that so fucking hard that you had ruin a perfectly fine browser

    Hello,
    In Firefox 23, as part of an effort to simplify the Firefox options set and facilitate future improvements to Firefox, the option to hide the tab bar was removed.
    Fortunately, this can easily be resolved if you desire the keep tabs hidden. You can install "[https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/hide-tab-bar-with-one-tab/ Hide tab bar with one tab]", an extension hosted on Mozilla's add-ons site, which will restore the ability to hide the tab bar.
    Thank you and I hope this helps!

  • How do I set Firefox to start on login in full screen mode and permanently disable the tool bars?

    I am trying to set up a touch screen windows 7 lenovo desktop for use by older users with no prior experiance of PC's. I would like Firefox to start on login and open in full screen mode, with all toolbars disabled. Is this possible? and if so how do I go about doing this?

    If you close Firefox 4 while in full screen mode then the browser should start in full screen mode the next time. That setting is stored in localstore.rdf in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder].
    If you want to prevent toolbars from opening if you hover to the top then hide the full-screen-toggler with code in userChrome.css
    Add code to userChrome.css below the @namespace line.

  • Menu bar auto hiding in full screen

    Using OS X Mavericks and all of aa sudden when ever i use full screen mode in any app the menu bar autohides.  Is there a setting somewhere where i can turn this feature off?

    Thats the entire point of full screen mode, is to hide all Mac OS stuff. And in certain apps, that will hide some of it's own stuff. Like for example Safari, it will hide the "favorites". While the address bar and "tabbed" windows stay visible.

  • NB100 touchpad scroll bar stops working after exit full screen mode youtube

    I have few Toshiba laptops, satellite, and now netbook100.
    All of them share one problem, touchpad scroll bar:
    It will stop working after exit full screen mode in youtube.
    Here is how to reproduce the incident:
    1. using any mainstream browser, start playing a youtube video, click full screen button at the bottom right corner of the video.
    2. click on the [cross] to exit the full screen mode. (next to full screen button.)
    3. check if you scroll bar still functioning.
    4. a reboot will restore the function.
    Currently, Im on vista, I believe in XP you will have the same problem.
    Searching in google (touchpad scroll bar stops full screen youtube) will return more people share the same question but no answer.
    Environments: win xp all, win vista all.
    Windows all most updated driver, touch pad driver up to date.
    This is not a major tech problem but for a netbook, this is very annoying.
    If anyone have this problem or answers, please share it here.
    Thank you in advance.
    regards.

    I had the exact same problem on my laptop and after a lot of searching, I finally found the simplest solution that really works for me so here goes:
    Once you exit the full screen video and the scroll pad has stopped working, click once anywhere on the youtube page(just to unfocus from the video) and press the spacebar button on your keyboard twice.
    Et voila, your scroll pad should be working again. Beats the hassle of having to log off everytime.
    Hope this helps

  • Can't see TV shows purchased from Music Store in Full Screen Mode

    Prior to the release of iTunes 7.0, I had been purchasing episodes of LOST from the iTunes Music Store and watching the episodes on my Mac in Full Screen viewing mode.
    Since downloading iTunes 7.0, I have been unable to watch any television shows purchased from the Music Store from that date forward in Full Screen mode. When I select iTunes>View>Full Screen I can hear the audio, but I cannot see the image. Instead, my monitor goes totally black. If I select iTunes>View>Fit to Screen, I am able to see the video, however, the video does not fill up my screen...instead, I have about two inches of desktop showing on either side of the image. Does anyone know how to solve this problem so that I can once again watch purchased television shows in Full Screen mode?
    By the way, I am now running iTunes 7.0.2.
    Power Mac G4 Tower   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    Alan, I just checked and I don't see a section for TV shows in the Canadian store. As the initial deal was made with ABC, I doubt that there is any content available yet for you. I do see the pixar section and the music video section, however.
    Similarly, a visit to the Apple Canada site shows no mention of being able to download TV shows.
    As with the music, it is going to take a separate lisence to bring TV content to each store. If and when that is going to happen, no one around here would be able to say.

  • Menu Bar items invisible in Safari full screen mode

    I have a brand new MacBook Pro 13" Retina, mid-2014 (the MGX72). When I use Safari in full screen mode, then move the cursor to the very top of the screen, which is supposed to bring back the Menu bar, a blank space representing the Menu Bar appears, and if I move the cursor to any place on that blank space and click, I see the items/options associated with Menu Bar items. So it's like the Menu Bar items are there, but they're invisible. This has to be a glitch of some type. My MacBook Air doesn't do this; the Menu Bar items appear normally, as they should. Is there a fix for this? All the usual suspects for bringing Safari out of full screen mode work fine, but that's not the idea. The Menu Bar items are supposed to become visible and they do not.

    No, dont return it, its a glitch in Safari, and VERY annoying. I first would have to Force Quit Safari, but later learned to keep hovering the mouse in the upper right corner, even tho nothing, yeah nothing,,,,is visible.
    Keep the mouse there, and after a bit, you will see the little arrows pointing in, hit them.
    But to keep this from happening again, Im not sure.
    So anybody with further info, please post it here.

  • How can i print an Excel file when in the full screen mode (no print options on toolbar or right clk

    using Vista, sometimes after creating and saving an excel file, the document is not visible when the file is reopened.
    selecting full screen mode makes the document visible, but the toolbars disappear and the print option does not show up on a right click.  How can i print the document and see the document in some other mode than full screen?

    In order to print, you can click the CTRL+P keys to launch the print dialog,
    Regarding the missing toolbar, try clicking the ALT key to shouw the software menu, then look around under the view option for any available toolbar settings,
    If you cannot find it, i would recommend you to try the Microsoft support forums, as they have some more knowledge with their software features

  • Do not show the Mac menu bar and the Dock in full-screen mode option not available

    "Remote Desktop Connection" for mac has an option to
    hide the menu bar in full screen mode.  I am unable to locate this option in the new
    Microsoft Remote Desktop.  Without this option the remote desktop connection bar becomes completely inaccessible.  And since the old "remote desktop connection" program has poor support for windows 8.1 I cannot go back.
    Is there a workaround?  Can you please add this important feature back in?

  • How to output Macbook Pro VGA to LCD TV in full screen mode?

    I Have a Macbook Pro 2007 with DVI to VGA output. I have connected it to my Toshiba LCD TV and am able to get a screen image on the TV without any difficulty. The problem is that the TV display is not full screen. I can't find any way to increase the size of the picture on the TV. Is this a limitation of the output or the TV display?
    Thanks for any help.

    Hi Macbook17Pro,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    You may need to set the resolution on your Mac's display settings to match the resolution of your tv.

  • Menu bar no longer appears in full screen mode

    For some reason today my menu bar no longer shows up when I move the mouse to the top of the screen in any application.  I have tried restarting several times, opening and closing applications, taking apps in and out of full screen, ran disk utility.  All to no avail.
    Not sure if this is related, but I attached an external drive and booted to the recovery volume on my mac to install Lion on the external drive.  It hung at the download so I quit and rebooted to my main drive.  Everything worked normally except for the menu bar.
    Software up to date, 2008 MacBook Pro with no attachments.
    Any ideas?

    After not using the computer for 30 minutes, the menu bar is now working again.  Must be a bug...
