Is there a way to enlarge the overall screen size in a macbook air for easier viewing

Is there a way to enlarge the the icons/text, etc. on a macbook air for easier viewing without changing the screen resolution?

not really apart from changing the resolution, but theres a a couple of things you can do
you can change the "minimum font size" in Safari (and other apps) in the General tab - this will enlarge any fonts to the minimum size you specify if they are under that size
the features in the accessiblilty section of system preferences might be worth a look as well
the pinch zoom feature is also useful
unfortunately there isn't a 1-button setting somewhere that can do this, because apps, documents, web pages, images etc all work independently from each other, they use different font types, different zoom levels, etc. You can't just enlarge them all in sync without content getting jumbled up/distorted. if enlarge an app/page/document and get it looking good, on the next one you would probably need to zoom in at a different level for it to look right

Hey is there a way to increase the amount of gb on a macbook air?

If you mean RAM, not after it leaves the factory.
If you mean storage space, install a larger internal drive or plug in an external one.

In PSE9 is there a way to enlarge the levels adjustment panel and effects panel for viewing?

In PSE9 is there a way to enlarge the levels adjustment panel for viewing? The histogram is so small.
I know we can use the arrow keys to change the settings for the histogram, but it is just the overall view of it I would like to see bigger.
I think with PSE8 the effects panel could be dragged out of the panel bin and made longer AND wider, but in PSE9 it can only be made longer when dragged outside the panel bin.
And I think the whole panel bin could be dragged wider or narrower.

To change the default message font, use UIManager: UIManager.put("OptionPane.messageFont",
new Font("Lucida Console", Font.PLAIN, 12)); Per-instance, use HTML: JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(

Only by dropping the resolution in the System Preferences which has limited results.
With Safari there isn't a whole lot of choices, just a increase in the text on web pages which doesn't hold and tends to distort pages.
A better option for surfing is Firefox and the Add-ons: NoSquint and Theme Font & Size Changer.
NoSquint puts two zoom in/out buttons on the toolbar, you can set a global whole web page increase (not just type) and best of all it remembers that zoom setting for that site forever (unless you clear it out)
Now the other Add-on: Theme Font & Size Changer, allows you to increase the font size of Firefox itself, so the text buttons, google search bar and URL bar is all at a increased font size, making it easier to read.
On my 17" I got Firefox font size set at a 24 pt and web pages globally set of a defualt zoom of 170%, which appears to me to be twice the size of the type in OS X.
I also have a deep blue Firefox "persona" that colors the toolbar area, with white type the contrast makes it easier to read for me as well.

Is there any way to stop the print screen from dropping down on top of the page to be printed. Can the print screen be moved?

Is there a way to stop the print screen from dropping down on top of the page to be printed. Can the print screen be moved? When the print screen drops down, it covers the page and the info needed to create the file. Thank you

You will find that this is application dependent. Most Apple applications such as Safari and Mail will use the "sheet" type of dialog boxes that you are referring. There is no way for the user to change that behavior. Other, non-Apple, applications like Firefox use a "modal" dialog box for printing etc. The modal boxes can be moved around so you can see the page behind.

I am trying to switch laptops with my mom, and successfully wiped mine and restored it, but now her password won't allow her into my computer, even though it says it's her account. Is there any way to bypass the password screen?

I am trying to switch laptops with my mom, and successfully wiped mine and restored it, but now the password that she used on her computer isn't working on this computer. Is there any logical reason why the two passwords would be different, if I restored her information from a Time Machine backup? Aditionally, Is there a way to bypass the password page on startup to make a password that my mom knows?

If Disk Warrior does not work you can try the following steps (but they may not work if the disk has a hardware error).
Get the disk (DVD or CD) that came with the system (since you have it listed as 10.6.8). If it is 10.7 or 10.8 use the Recovery partition to boot from or the USB installer if you have that option.
Insert the disk then power down
HOLDING the C key, power up to boot from the disc.
Get to Disk Utility
If Disk Utility will now show your hard drive, use DU to REPAIR the disk.
When it completes the Repair process successfully as indicated in DU, do a shut down. If Repair is not successful then an different course of action is indicated below.
Then HOLDING THE APPLE (or Command key depending on your keyboard) KEY AND THE OPTION KEY AND THE LETTER P AND R KEYS, continue hiolding them until you hear the chime tone for the THIRD time then release all four keys.
If REPAIR is not successful, use the Install disc as a boot and REINSTALL THE OS X OPERATING SYSTEM DO NOT ERASE THE DISK OR VOLUME FIRST. REPEAT DO NOT erase the disk or volume before trying to reinstall the OS X operating system. After re-installing the OS do a software update. Note that ERASING the disk is NOT required to do an OS re-install. This allows your existing data and application files to remain.
If that fails then you are down to the "bitter end" of erasing the volume and reinstalling the OS and then all the other software.
If erasing the Volume fails then your last hope is to completely erase the entire hard drive, repartion the disk and try a re-install.
If that fasils then you may have a defective hard disk.

TS3048 Is there a way to "calibrate" the magic mouse? I have rearranged settings for mouse, air-cleaned, tried different surfaces, however, it seems to be misinterpreting finger movements and randomly trying to open launchpad when enabled.

Is there a way to "calibrate" the magic mouse? Batteries are good. I have rearranged settings for mouse, air-cleaned, tried different surfaces, however, it seems to be misinterpreting finger movements and randomly trying to open launchpad when enabled-flashing between the app I am in and launchpad. When right-click is enabled I have to go to the extreme upper left of mousepad to click or it is interpreted as right-click. Won't consistently "scroll". Suggestions?

Is there a way to keep the ADL open when testing CS5.5 Air apps after it loses focus?

When I test Air applications (specifically targeting mobile) it seems that when the ADL (Air Debug Launcher) launches, it will automatically terminate the session when I click on anything else other than the ADL window. I have been trying to use 3rd party application debuggers that provide improved memory diagnostics, but these debuggers only seem to be able to work when the application is launched through the Flash Player and not through the ADL. Unfortunately, the Air specific code will only work in the ADL. Is there some way to keep the ADL running even when it loses focus? I have tried using the ADL from the Flash CS5.5 IDE as well as from the command line and both will terminate upon losing focus.

- Transfer the app to the computer by:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
- Connect the iPod to the computer and make a backup by right-clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and selecting Back Up.
- Restore the iPod from that backup. That should also update the iPod.

Question:-Is there any way to disable the installation location/folder of da Adobe AIR Application?

Is there any way to disable the installation location/folder of the Adobe AIR Application or can we skip that part automatically?

xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx" is the spark mx address, which is completely different than the original 2006 mx library.
The thing is: I love AIR, hate spark, loved the 2006 pre-spark functionality. It is so much more convenient and user friendly. Given the choice between having the display seperate from the processing, or having it be convenient and easy to work with, I choose the later option.
For the most part it seems like the AIR api is like a layer on top of the spark - flex system.. I would like to be able to over lay the same AIR functionality on top of the the old system....
Possible or no?

Reading the older questions, is there a way in which the full screen slide shows can be saved and/or exported?

Reading the older questions, is there a way in which a full screen slide show (such as places or geotagged photo's) can be saved and/or exported for viewing by another party?

Yes. Just export the slideshow and select your preferred output size.

*Is there any way to limit the Chart Bar size dynamically?*

Hi
I have selected the Marker size as Medium for my Bar chart.
Bar chart bar showing too big when there is only one bar.
Is there any way to limit the bar size dynamically?
Thank you

hi Ruwan,
Don is correct in that there is no option in the chart design component to do this.
what you can do though (i know it is a pain) is to
1) create a new chart in a new section with a narrower bar using the chart options dialogue
2) create a conditional suppression formula for the new section and the old chart section based on the value returned in the Show Value for the chart
i have created a request for a charting overhaul [here |https://ideas.sap.com/community/products_and_solutions/crystalreports;jsessionid=B3E2E9F6A6CC9C9F5321659382A91855.node0]in the ideas place which includes a solution for this particular issue. please feel free to give it the thumbs up if you think that this is a worthwhile idea.

Is there any way to modify the photo book size after I have created the book?

I created a photo book then realized it was not the correct size. Is there a way to correct the size or do I have to start from scratch?
I Found the answer after I posted this- CTRL D to duplicate, then choose new theme - Worked like a charm.

Yes. First click on the book in the Projects section and type Command +D (duplicate). Open the book, click on Change Themes and in the next window select the size and type you want.
The duplicate is to have in case you find any text that was removed in the resizing. You can cut and past from the duplicate copy to the original. Also verify that the resized book has all of its text, not text warning indicators and that all photos are there and in the correct order.
Always create a PDF version of the book according to this Apple doucment, iPhoto, Aperture: Previewing an order in iPhoto or Aperture, to check for any errors, i.e. typos, missing text, etc., before ordering the book. Keep the pdf file to compare with the printed version when it arrives.
Opps! Answered your question from the title without reading the full body of your post. However, the last 2 paragraphs are worth reviewing.
