IChat windows popping up off right side of monitor

We are pretty new to our MacBook Pro laptop. Somehow, we have managed to cause iChat to open off the right side of the screen and would like to know how to get it back in the visible area. Our screen resolution is 1024 x 768 stretched, but other applications seem to be fine. We have tried scrolling the mouse off the right side and blindly clicking and dragging, but that hasn't worked. Any help appreciated.

Hi SHS,
Have you connected a second screen by any chance ?
If so go to System Preferences > Displays and make the setting Mirror for the moment.
This should give you control back of the out of main screen areas

    Hello,
    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
    * On Windows you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * On Mac you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
    * On Linux you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by quitting Firefox and then going to your Terminal and running: firefox -safe-mode (you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
    * Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
    [[Image:FirefoxSafeMode|width=520]]
    ''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    [[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''

  • Printing window from Grab-always cuts off right side

    I am wondering why Grab (Capture Window) captures the window perfectly, only to have it distorted when I go to print that window. Every time I use Grab for a window that I want to print, no matter what I do, the right side of the window (text/graphics) is cut off in the printing process.
    Doesn't matter if I change Page Layout to Horizontal, the right side is never there in Print Preview. What is Grab intended for, if not to capture the whole window so someone can print it out? I don't get it.
    I normally use the command, shift, 4, drag sequence which always works perfectly. So my question, is why is Grab there in my applications, if it doesn't do what I need it to do? I'm sure it has some good use that I am unaware of.
    Can anyone tell me if I am doing something wrong with Grab? Thanks.

    Hi, Jane. I have no idea why, but the same thing happens for me. A clumsy but effective workaround is to use the Save As... command in Grab, then open the resulting TIFF file in Preview, and print it from Preview instead of printing it from Grab.
    Command-Shift-Option-4 has always worked so well for me that I think this is the first time I've ever opened Grab, and it may well be the last.

  • The right side of my browser window is cut off. There is no scroll bar on the right and the search bar (upper right) is chopped off (right side).

    Actually, the whole right side of the window is cut off, including the page/window header. This isn't just the websites I visit, it's the whole browser window(s). The word "Settings" is also cut off on the right side.

    It is possible that the screen is too wide or too high and that the scroll bars fall off.
    * Use Restore or Maximize in the right-click context menu of the Taskbar icon to set focus to the Firefox application if you do not see the Firefox window.
    * Open the system menu of that Firefox window via Alt+Space and see if you can move and resize that window.
    If that works then close Firefox (File > Exit/Quit) to save that setting.

  • Z key in macbook pro pops up on right side. Little pin on scissor clip underneath has broken. No stress on computer, is this apple covered? Otherwise where do I get a new scissor clip. Less than 3 months old.

    On the Z key, the little scissor clip underneath on the right hand side has two little pointy bits which connect to the key, the top one of these has broken off and the key is barely hanging on, if pushed on the right side of the key, it pops up. I tried to push it back in but it keeps popping up.
    My mac is less than 3 months old. The computer has been treated well and has not been used rough or treated badly, I imagine it's just an accident while typing or a weak clip.
    Is this covered by Apple, if not where do I buy a new clip for under the key? -

    u can give try to using external enclosre and backup ur files. I hope u will get files back. or using external enclosre with ur hdd boot into Linux and try to mount ur harddisk.
    there are multiple no of tutorial to mount apple partion in Linux.

  • Converting DWF to PDF using right click option cuts off right side.

    I have 24x36 dwf files that I need to convert to PDF. (Printing Landscape)
    When using the right click option in explorer, "Convert to Adobe PDF", the conversion cuts off about 6" on the right side of the page.
    (I can "Print" inside my DWF viewer to Adobe and it works fine and I can set my default printer to Adobe PDF and select multiple at a time and it prints fine)
    I currently have Windows 7 and Acrobat XI version 11.0.06.
    How do I fix this?

    You might check the preferences in Acrobat and see if there are settings for DWF files.

  • Printing iPhoto cuts off right side of photo without editing?

    When I try to print a iPhoto that is on screen full size it will chop off the photo on the right side without any editing when i do preveiw before printing. i have tried a few different things to try to correct but still same outcome.

    I can confirm your issue with both iPhoto 9.4.3 and 9.5.1.  Croppijg a photo to 3.5 and trying to print to 3 x 5 borderless will crop a bit off oif the right side of the image.  I've confirmed that the pixel dimensions are for a 3 x 5, 1:1.666 but it won't fit into the 3x5 layout. 
    I checked it out with a 4 x 6 in iPhoto 9.5.1 and got the same results.  When the print process begins it's the original image that is brought into the print window instead of the cropped verson.
    Cropping with an external editor does let you print to the exact print size selected.

  • I moved the firefox window too far off the side of my screen now I can not get back . How can I get it back

    I moved the window off the edge of my screen now it won;t come back. I tried changing the resolution of the screen didn't work, I uninstalled the program and reinstalled a newer vs (6.0.2) and it still flys off the side of my screen as soon as I open the program. What else can I do?

    You can undo your permission changes. Probably the most relevant one is cookies. Try one or both of these methods:
    (1) Page Info > Permissions tab
    While viewing a page on the site:
    * right-click and choose View Page Info > Permissions
    * Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Permissions
    (2) about:permissions
    In a new tab, type or paste '''about:permissions''' and press Enter. Allow a few moments for the list on the left to populate, as this information needs to be extracted from a database.
    Then type or paste ''rcn''' in the search box above the list to filter it to the most relevant domains. When you highlight a domain, you can adjust its permissions in the right pane.
    Any luck?

  • Exporting to PDF cutting off right side of the page.

    I am exporting a Crystal Report to PDF. This works perfect on our development and staging server. However, on the production server the PDF is cut off on the right. Like, instead of being 8.5" wide, it looks to be about 7.5" wide? It just cut off the right side of the PDF. Very weird. Republished the site but did not change anything.
    But here's the odd part. We have another Crystal Report on the production server that exports to PDF just fine. Just this one report, "invoice2.rpt", is having issues. "invoice2.rpt" was originally copied from "invoice.rpt" so all of the settings (that I have looked at) are exactly the same. This report was formatted a little differently than the original.
    Does anyone have any thoughts about what might be causing this to happen?
    Thanks,
    Randy

    Hi Randy,
    I have seen a similar issue in the past and the problem was due to the fact that some fields and or objects were placed in part or completely outside of the margins of the report. This can be checked opening the report from Crystal Reports > Design view.
    I would suggest opening the report from Crystal Reports, select the option 'No printer' from File menu>Page setup and double-check that the report has been created inside the report margins (From Design View, the report space should be white except if the background colour has been modified).
    If this does not help, please clarify if the issue is faced from Crystal Reports or from Business Objects Enterprise/Crystal Reports Server and the version you are using.
    Thank you,
    Selenia

  • Desktop extends off Right side of PB Display

    No matter which display setting I use it extends off of the screen on the right side. I installed the new fix from apple and I now have multiple screen settings and the brightness control is back, but now everything extends off to the right side.

    Hi RED,
    Don't know where the setting is supposed to be/how it's supposed to work in Tiger, but do know (if this isn't a bug in Tiger) that you must have it set to extended desktop instead of mirroring, which is what you want. Suggest looking through Help up in your menu bar and/or posting in the Tiger folder if no one here is able to offer more info.

  • Safari cutting off right side of web pages.

    I have been using Safari on iPad to view web pages from my company's schedule bidding system. I have had no problems viewing these pages in the past, however now the right side of the web page is being cut off, I am unable to view information or use control buttons that are on the right side of the web page. I have several colleagues using safari on the iPad that are not having the problem so thinking it is a setting on my iPad and not the company website.
    Any Ideas? 

    The Canon A630 ... (mainly because of the outstanding picture quality which you were able to show me, the variety of zoom levels, not to mention it's nearly half the cost). Although the other camera is a higher MP rating; that in itself didn't sell me on a newer model).

  • Hp printer cuts off right side of paper

    Hello,
    I am new to this but I have a problem that needs to be answered pretty quickly please, when I try to print out an email the right side of the email gets cut off, I checked the printer setting and even the preferences but everything is alright, nothing wrong there, but every time I print I happens. Also when I go to print out a picture the picture turns out yellow, please I tried everything I could think of.
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Hi - Can you provide the model of printer you're using?  That will help determine what steps to take to troubleshoot.  Typically though, when the print out is being clipped or cut off, it has to do with a paper size mismatch between the printer driver software and the settings in the software you're using (i.e. MS Word).  Make sure that the paper size settings in the sw (typically under page setup) match those of the printer (typically under printer setup).
    As for the color issue, the first step will be to run a self test page on the printer to determine whether it is an issue with the ink cartridges.  How to run the test page from the printer is dependant on the printer model.
    Hope that helps.
