Ipad air safari to full screen

How can I make safari of ipad air into full screen?
Are their any gestures to close tabs quickly, or switch one tab to another?

Switch tap; just tab the index on top.

  • IPad Air not showing full screen after updating to ios 8.2.

    How do I reset the screen to show all items on screen while in Safari?  Screen seems to be "cut-off" after updating to ios 8.2. Also cannot view Yahoo in Desktop view.  It only shows in mobile mode,

    When on Yahoo, tap on the address bar once...a drobox box containing icons of your favourites should appear.  Hold your finger anywhere on the box & pull down,,,you should see 'Request Desktop Site' under the address bar...tap on that & the desktop site should load.
    Is your Safari screen cut off a bit at the sides?  I notice that too on certain websites & usually switch my iPad to landscape mode which allows me to view more of the page without having to scroll sideways.

  • On my iPad Air Safari crashes and quits when I view a slideshow.

    On my iPad Air , Safari crashes and quits when I view a slideshow on an internet site. Sometimes it doesn't crash but the slideshow is freezes. Any idea why?

    Try clearing Safari's cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cookies And Data (Clear Cache on iOS 4) and also Clear History
    If that doesn't work then try closing Safari completely and then re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with Safari 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Safari app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    A third option is a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • Safari in Full Screen

    Hi,
    I have been using Mac OS X Lion for some time now, and I have noticed that when I use Safari in full screen mode and quit, the next time I launch Safari, it does not launch in full screen again. I have read about apps launching in full screen mode when you quit them in full screen, and all other apps on my Mac do so, but Safari.
    Is there anything I can do to solve this?
    Thanks!

    Try enabling / disabling Resume...

  • Always open safari in full screen

    For months my imac has always opened safari in full screen now it doesn't n. How do I get this back and how do I keep it from happening in the future?

    Step one is to create a new admin user account, log into it, and see if the issue persists.

  • New MBPr when viewing safari in full screen mode it keeps switching to the desk top screen like I initiated a gesture

    Everytime I am using safari in full screen mode my MBPr always switches back to desk top view within a matter of seconds.  I can be typing a website or entering data in to a form and it still switches back.  This has become very annoying.  I have reinstalled the software, restored from time machinw, and even reset safri but it will not stop

    Delete the localstore.rdf file at the following location:
    C:\Users\'''USERNAME'''\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\'''PROFILE NAME'''
    I did this and it fixed it for several days, but it broke again eventually.

  • Unable to set safari in full-screen mode

    Hi folks,
    I just factory reset my 15-inch MBP running 10.9.3. After doing so, I notice that I am unable to set Safari in full-screen mode. Any ideas??

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Please take this step regardless of the results of Step 1.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

  • Has anyone had Ipad air go completely black screen?  And now won't even turn on.

  • Facebook videos not playing on iPad Air(safari browser)

    Why do my Facebook videos not play in iPad Air(safari browser) but same video play nicely on iPhone 4(safari browser). It asks me to download flash player to play on iPad but plays fine on iPhone without giving any prompt to download flash player.

    You should not have trouble playing using the FaceBook app.

  • My new IPad Air will not rotate screen

    My new ipad air will not rotate screens.  I am trying the lock or unlock but it makes no difference.

    Check out this link for operation of the side switch:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085
    Also, pull up Control Center (swipe up from just above the Home button) and check the screen lock there (it should be at the top-left of the Control Center and looks like a padlock with a circular arrow).

  • Resizing Safari to full screen

    Is there any way to resize safari to full screen? I have tried with the Green + icon in upper left of window but it resizes itself very little. I have tried to find the answer on support page without luck, as a matter of fact, I am new to MAC after being a pc user for years. I love my MAC except for the documentation and lack of support for questions about everyday usage.

    Just from using this for the first time its evident that I will get more information here. I have been to MAC 101 and gettting started websites. There is definitely a lack of manual support for MAC compared to PC. There is a place on the website that you can download manuels but the one for leopard keeps saying that I have reached the wrong site and redirecting me to the previous page. I like knowing more about the how to's than they cover on the getting to know Mac os page
    Of course you should use whatever method works best for you...
    But just to point it out, the Mac 101 pages specifically mentions - within two clicks of the front page - how to resize a window (screenshot). (And I am very unfamiliar with the Mac 101 site and just clicked quickly through to see if it that information was readily discoverable.) I think those pages probably do a lot more than any standard manual, in terms of walking you through how to use the Mac OS and how it is different from Windows, and also in terms of readily finding little tidbits just by following the links and quickly skimming the categories.
    But again, use whatever resources you find the most functional. The forums are definitely a great way to get quick answers to simple "how to" questions like this one.
    I have a feeling some of your difficulties finding information are simply due to being in a different world from the one you're used to. In my experience, as a Mac user first and a Windows user only later and by necessity, I have found it much easier to get answers to Mac questions and I've never found Windows help resources to be the least bit easy to find or simple to use.
    What Leopard manual were you trying to download? Do you have the link?

  • IPad IOS 8.1 full screen safari web app display issue

    My company produces a web app that is intended to be used from the iPad's Full Screen Home Screen launch.
    we are using the tags:
    <meta name="apple-mobile-web-app-capable" content="yes">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0, user-scalable=no" >
    Since taking the updates to IOS 8, 8.1, & 8.2, when the app is launched in full screen mode from the home screen, the iPad's top line including the text "iPad", its signal strength, VPN status, current time, battery life, and blue-tooth indicators are superimposed on the top line of every page - making it difficult to read that top line of data coming from our app.
    Additionally, there appears to now be a blank white band that shows up on the footer of the web app.  Both of these new additions to the full screen appearance is yielding a somewhat less professional appearance.
    Is there some sort of tag or other setting that we can use to hide these new areas that are appearing?

    This is a better illustration.   I'm thinking that the white band at the bottom of the screen should be at the top of the screen (like the iphone does) and the web content should be shifted down that amount of space.
    the white band is hard to see with this white background however, but its obvious on the ipad in full screen mode... so go to the link on your device, save it to the home screen and relaunch...

  • Any way to turn off Safari's full screen, auto hide tab bar mode?

    FInally took the plunge and upgraded to iOS 8 on one of our i-devices.  Really like the Panorama camera mode-- well done, Apple!
    However, I was staggered to find that Safari now hides the tab bar as soon as you start scrolling down a web page!  What's with that?  I guess lots people wanted a full screen mode.  OK, but for the rest of us, is there an option to turn off that mode and keep the tabs permanently visible?
    With the new set up (now old to many of you), it takes 2 taps every time you want to close a tab or move to another one.  That gets old fast!  Plus, the animation each time is visually distracting and tiring and also gets tiresome.  My browsing involves a lot of switching among tabs, so this is a real step backwards.
    Hope there's a work around!  Otherwise, we're going to have to leave our iPad Air at iOS 7! 

    Jim, appreciate the reply.  Yes, I have submitted it as feedback to Apple!
    I also stumbled upon the tap at top... The scroll upwards, though, rarely works for me!  For example, here on this site one has to scroll down a long way, quickly.  (It gets confusing, doesn't it?  One slides down to scroll upwards!)
    In browsing today, I realized that my habit is to come to the end of a story, then tap the close button on the tab bar, which takes me to the next tab and its story.   Now, under iOS 8, I end up having to tap, watch the animation, then locate the button, and tap again.  It doesn't sound like much, but it's a nuisance when one is moving from tab to tab reading news stories.
    Of course, if I could wave a magic wand and fix just one thing about the iOS, it would be the incredibly lousy handling of contractions via auto-correct.  It virtually never works unless one slows their typing down to the speed of molasses!   I've used the feedback on that one, too, but iOS 8 in any of its incarnations has not fixed that!
