I have a small internet screen within my screen. It's stuck, how do I exit out of it?

Please help! My screen shot is below, and the arrows are pointing to the little display box/mini screen I mentioned.
I don't know how it got there & I can't (for the life of me) get rid of it.
When I'm working in Adobe Indesign and try to preview my designs in full screen mode, it shows up infront of my design.
Close up of what I'm talking about
Thank you

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It won’t solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Third-party system modifications are a common cause of usability problems. By a “system modification,” I mean software that affects the operation of other software — potentially for the worse. The following procedure will help identify which such modifications you've installed. Don’t be alarmed by the complexity of these instructions — they’re easy to carry out and won’t change anything on your Mac. 
These steps are to be taken while booted in “normal” mode, not in safe mode. If you’re now running in safe mode, reboot as usual before continuing. 
Below are instructions to enter some UNIX shell commands. The commands are harmless, but they must be entered exactly as given in order to work. If you have doubts about the safety of the procedure suggested here, search this site for other discussions in which it’s been followed without any report of ill effects. 
Some of the commands will line-wrap or scroll in your browser, but each one is really just a single line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, and you can then copy it. The headings “Step 1” and so on are not part of the commands. 
Note: If you have more than one user account, Step 2 must be taken as an administrator. Ordinarily that would be the user created automatically when you booted the system for the first time. The other steps should be taken as the user who has the problem, if different. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this paragraph doesn’t apply. 
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways: 
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.) 
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens. 
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid. 
When you launch Terminal, a text window will open with a line already in it, ending either in a dollar sign (“$”) or a percent sign (“%”). If you get the percent sign, enter “sh” and press return. You should then get a new line ending in a dollar sign. 
Step 1 
Triple-click the line of text below on this page to select it:
kextstat -kl | awk '!/com\.apple/{printf "%s %s\n", $6, $7}' | open -f -a TextEdit 
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Then click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste (command-V). A TextEdit window will open with the output of the command. If the command produced no output, the window will be empty. Post the contents of the TextEdit window (not the Terminal window), if any — the text, please, not a screenshot. You can then close the TextEdit window. The title of the window doesn't matter, and you don't need to post that. No typing is involved in this step.
Step 2 
Repeat with this line:
{ sudo launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.(apple|openssh|vix)|org\.(amav|apac|cups|isc|ntp|postf|x)/{print $3}'; sudo defaults read com.apple.loginwindow LoginHook; sudo crontab -l; } 2> /dev/null | open -f -a TextEdit 
This time you'll be prompted for your login password, which you do have to type. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. Type it carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. Heed that warning, but don't post it. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator. 
Note: If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before taking this step. If that’s not possible, skip to the next step. 
Step 3
{ launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.apple|org\.(x|openbsd)/{print $3}'; crontab -l 2> /dev/null; } | open -f -a TextEdit 
Step 4
ls -A /e*/{la,mach}* {,/}L*/{Ad,Compon,Ex,Fram,In,Keyb,La,Mail/Bu,P*P,Priv,Qu,Scripti,Servi,Spo,Sta}* L*/Fonts .la* 2> /dev/null | open -f -a TextEdit  
Important: If you formerly synchronized with a MobileMe account, your me.com email address may appear in the output of the above command. If so, anonymize it before posting. 
Step 5
osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to get name of every login item' | open -f -a TextEdit 
Remember, steps 1-5 are all copy-and-paste — no typing, except your password. Also remember to post the output. 
You can then quit Terminal.

  • Is it possible to get the image from the i pad when mirroring via Apple TV to fill the screen instead of appearing as a screen within a screen?

    When mirroring, is it possible to get the image from the ipad to fill the screen on the TV instead of appearing as a screen within a screen?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    No, the iPad has an aspect ratio of 4:3, a TV has an aspect ratio of 16:9, to fit one into the other is impossible without distorting the picture. If your TV has a zoom feature, you may be able to use this to fill the screen a little more to your liking, but this will result in cropping top and bottom.

  • I have a small white spot on my screen

    I have a macbook air which i bought in april.  It works great but i notice it there is a small white spot on the screen that is very annoying.  It's not visual when I'm playing a game or wtching a video because there is a dark screen behind it.  When there is a light screen in front of it it's there.  It's annoying. 

    Your Mac has a 1-year warranty.  If this is a hardware problem in the display (and it sounds like it is) they will fix it for free.

  • I have destroyed the motherboard of a Mid 2009 MacBook Pro. How do I find out the technical specifications so I can give accurate information to someone who buys it for parts?

    I recently had an unfortunate incident with a glass of water and a mid 2009-MacBook Pro. 13 inch screen.
    According to the techs at the genius bar, the screen, keyboard, chassis and hard drive (160g) were still all good - as were all components other than the Motherboard.
    I just completed the complete erasure of the hard drive, but don't have the technical specifications at my disposal.
    Does anyone know how I can get them - the guy at apple said he didn't think he could help? 
    Serial No. Is available.

  • I have a massive 267GB yellow 'other' file in my memory. How can i find out what it is?

    I am cleaning up my Mac and have gone through the usual processes of removing downloads, emptying trash and other usual cleaning up of unwanted files.  On my memory storage I have a massive yellow "other" usage of 267Gb but cannot find out what this consists of.  I have the usual music and photo files but how can I find out what this consists of?

    If it doesn't correct itself after a reboot, the Spotlight database on your Mac may be corrupted. Try re-indexing: Spotlight: How to re-index folders or volumes - Apple Support

  • I have a small white square on my screen - it doesn't drag open or move, 21" iMac (mid 2010)

    Just today I noticed a small pale white square on my screen. It's fixed in position, doesn't drag wider or open up anything.
    iMac spec is 21" mid 2010 updated Xmas 2014 to OS X - Yosemite 10.10.1, 3.06 Ghz Intel Core i3

    Howdy yogadude,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like the small white square on your iMac's display may be a pixel anomaly, take a look at the article linked below for more information and possible solutions.

  • How do you exit out of full screen mode for FCPX? ESC does not work.

    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!

    There are two full screen modes in FCP X when running in MacOS X Lion.
    Fullscreen playback:
         Enter using the double arrow on the viewer or with command-shift-F.
         Exit with the Escape key.
    Fullscreen editing:
         Enter using the double arrow on the top right of FCP X's windows or control-shift-F.
         Exit using escape or control-shift-F.
    This is how it works for me.

  • HT204088 My daughters have Itunes accounts that are connected to my credit card.  I continue to have charges, but both daughters insist that are not downloading.  How can I find out which account is being billed on my credit card?

    I am trying to find out which one of my daughters is buying music through I tunes and is posting to my credit card.  How can I find this out.  I have the transaction numbers from my credit card.

    If they have separate iTunes accounts then you can check each account on your computer's iTunes : log into an account on your computer's iTunes via the Store > View Account menu option, and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it. Click on that and you should then see a list of its purchases.
    If they share the same account then you can't tell, the purchase history doesn't show the device or computer that a purchase was made on.

  • Firefox suddenly inceased to completely cover the screen, so I cannot navigate to any other files or screens. Why did this happen, and how can I get out of it?

    What else can I say? I cannot navigate with Firefox filling my entire desktop screen on my I-Mac computer, and this makes preparing for the classes I teach tomorrow very difficult!

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