Larger font for my mac

I have bad eyesight and for this reason I'm trying to make the fonts larger on my mac. I know on windows there is a setting to make things larger, is there a similar setting on mac with the same effect? Sorry, I'm not the most knowledgeable person with computers.

Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Displays dropping to a lower resolution will increase the overall effective font size.
Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Universal Access can make the whole screen magnify, or switch black on white as well as increase the pointer size.
Subrosasoft's Magnifier is a great way to magnify just a portion of your screen:

And then there is the popular Shapeshifter, whose compatibility often breaks each time you update your operating system, so update your operating system only after making sure that Shapeshifter theme you are using works with the operating system you want to use:

5800 XM, Ovi Maps 3.03, larger fonts for street na...

I have a 5800 XM with Ovi Maps v 3.03. Is it possible to make the street names larger in size? The street names are only 1 milimeter in height in both 2D and 3D view, regardless of zoom level. I am aware there is the street name you are currently on in the center top section in a larger font size, which definately helps, but it would be nice to have the larger fonts for surrounding streets.
Also, is there a way to get rid of the white bar on the right side that houses the "search" and "menu" links? The 5800's screen is already small for GPS standards, and this white bar subtracts almost 1 cm of valuable screen real-estate. It would be nice to not have the white bar and have the "search" and "menu" links stay where they are, but perhaps have a white highlight around the letters or something like that.

Enjoy...
1.    install Font Creator Program 5.6 (Can use evaluation version)
2.   open ture type font what ever you like
3.   Do as attached JPG 1-2
4. Save & Exit
5. change font name to Nokia card \ cities\ font name and replace it (Can change different to names as more as your Nokia has)
Enjoy...

I have had my iPad2 for about ten days and have just two issues with it. I would like to use a larger font in Safari's bookmark menu because it is not detecting my touch easily especially around the left third of the menu bar. Secondly, I have my older Epson printer set up with my Airport Express for wireless printing and my iPad2 cannot find the printer. I saw that HP is the only manufacturer that is listed with compatible printers. Is anyone else using other printers for Airprint or will I need to buy an App for wireless printing through the iPad2?
On the font size issue, I just pinch-zoom the text to make it larger.
On the printer issue, you might try the following script to "jailbreak" non-HP printers so that they work with Airprint.

Unless you've done anything to change it, Google keeps every email that ever passes through their server in your All Mail folder/mailbox/label. Even if you delete stuff, they hold onto it, there. You have to go out of your way to actually delete anything permanently.

Teststand message box larger font for 95 years old

Hi
I am working with people > 90 yrs.
the message pop up window occupied on top of the screen.
How can I help them by changing the font and/or color of the message pop up.
the real estate of the screen is there.
message pop up dominates the screen, nothing else matters
Please allow me to change the font for seniors with strained eyes.

Hi trout00
You have a couple different options for changing the font size of the message box. The first option is to change the native Windows message box settings. From Windows XP, right-click on your desktop and go to "Properties". Click on the "Appearance" tab in the Display Properties dialog box, and click on the "Advanced" button. In the Advanced Appearance dialog box, select "Message Box" from the "Item" drop-down menu. This will allow you to change the font of the message box text.
Your other option is to use a custom step type. This KnowledgeBase has more information on this option, including a link to an example program.

Using Larger Fonts For Simple Sign

very surprised when I tried to create a large character
of font size 1500. Error message noted the maximum was
something like 1296.
I did not think there was a limit.
How do people make huge signs with LARGE letters?

Say on a layer I was working with the letter A
in font size 20. How would I use scaling exactly?
I guess I am a real beginner because I used FONT SIZE
until I started trying to draft a sign 20" wide by 30" high.
Thanks for this help.

HT5484 how do i get larger fonts for email on Iphone

Have gone into settings but cannot find any place to enlarge fonts on Iphone

Settings > General > Accessibility > Large Text.
I should also add, you can pinch to zoom if you don't want to enlarge the font.
The above post is incorrect.

HT201504 2015 Calendar font for the month in IPhote is too small. How do I make it larger?

I have created a 2015 calendar in IPhoto but the month is printed in a tiny font. I can't make it larger. The 2014 calendar used a large font for the month. How can I resolve this so can actually read the name of the month without my glasses?

That was just a test. It showed that your current library is damaged and needs repairing. Do the following to your current library:
1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down to open the First Aid window. Be sure to follow the circled recommendation in the screenshot.
2 - run Option #4, Rebuild Database.

I have just installed Photoshop Elements for a MAC. MY photos were in iPhoto, I have 47,000 pictures and my drive on my Mac laptop is not large enough. I store my photos in iPhoto on an external drive. Can I store all my photos on an external drive when using Photoshop Elements? If so, in what format should they be stored in? I do I move them from iPhoto to the new storage location? How do I call them up in organizer? And how do I call them up to Edit? I do not want to store any pictures on my Apple Mac laptop. I want to store pictures on several external devices.

Yes you can store images on an external hard dive and have them referenced in Organizer. It’s best to export copies to separate folders/subfolders and that will ensure iPhoto does not get corrupted.
Alternatively you could continue to use iPhoto with the Elements Editor set up in the iPhoto prefs as your external editing app. Then there is no need to use Organizer and no need to duplicate your images.
You can then call up photos directly from iPhoto as normal with the additional option e.g.
Double-click on a thumbnail to edit in iPhoto editor.
Control (right) - click on a thumbnail to edit in the elements app.
