Layout looks good on large screens – but not on laptop

Hi, is there any specific reason why a website would look OK on a large screen and yet fall apart on a laptop (13") screen?
Here's a link:

Is this related to my earlier post about coding errors?

I don't know what you mean by "Fall apart." Which browsers are you testing your site with?
If the page is oversized and centered, it will should appear centered on all viewports that are wider than the #wrapper width. If the display doesn't support that width, your page should appear flush left in browser with horizontal scrollbars.

MOV looks good in QT player but not DVDSP !

I exported a MOV from FCP using Apple ProRes 422(HQ) (my best choice I reckon) and it looked pretty sharp when I viewed it externally in Quicktime player. So, I was quite pleased.
However, when I imported into DVDSP and simulated it, the text (for example) looks poorer quality. And, having burned a disc and looked at it on a TV, the text still looks and other images still lack quality.
Why does it look good in QT player but not DVDSP simulated?

It's because DVD SP is converting it to MPEG-2 in order to put it on the disc. This will result in lower quality than your ProRes version. Also, if your ProRes version was HD, bear in mind that it will also be converted to SD for the DVD.
For best results, put it through Compressor first using the DVD 90 mins Best Quality setting with Dolby audio, then import the resulting two files into DVD SP. This will produce much better results than with DVD SP's default encoder.

My book looks good in Book Proofer but not on iTunes

Last month, I successfully delivered book content onto the iTunes book store.
Before loading the content, I did as suggested in the Publisher's Guide and checked the book's formatting using Book Proofer. The content appeared exactly as it should, so I delivered it to iTunes and it is now available for sale.
I purchased the book and the formatting is a mess -- nothing at all like it was designed or how it appeared when I checked it using Book Proofer.
Has this happened to anyone else? Is there any way for me to fix it?
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks,

I suggest you ask in some different forums and provide the title and details of what has gone wrong.

Alvast hartelijk dank voor de tips, de voorgestelde wijzegingen staan nu online. Maandag kijk ik hier nog verder naar, nu heb ik nog wat weibg marge links en rechts en staat het submenu nog iets te ver weg.
Als het mogelijk is zou ik de pijljes het liefst voor de tekst willen hebben (maar dat vindt ik minder belangrijk).
Alvast een fijn weekeinde gewenst

Navigation looks find in IE & Firefox but not Safari. Help please?a

Hi,
I am fairly new to the website design world. I just created a website for a college class . I got the site to look great in Internet Explorer and FireFox but for some reason I am having a problem with Safari.
I am a mac user so I really want my site to run good in Safari. The problem lies with the navigation menu. As I said it looks good in other browsers but in Safari it appears to be longer than the rest of my page. I have tried to change everything I can thing of to get it to fit within the page. I tried specifying the #nav width, I tried changing it to auto. Before I added the scroll over drop down menu, it was fine. Any suggestions as to what might be wrong?
Side note: When I magnify the page in safari I can eventually get the navigation to fit within the page...
Take a look. http://www.calihanchiropractic.com/
I am using CS3 & CS4. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how to get this to fit within my page?
Thanks!
Aubrie

Do you have the QuickTime Plug-in for Safari?

Since lots of people do not have QuickTime or QT plug-ins installed on their system, you should offer direct links to MP3s, too.

I am trying to set up my newly purchased Apple TV but when I enter my network password while setting up, I am not able to enter the Submit button, any idea how to hit the visible submit button that is visible on screen but not responding?

You need to use the right arrow on the remote to go all the way to the right. The submit button will be highlighted and you can then press select on the remote to proceed.

Can I use split screens on and extra monitor I have. I can get mirror image on both screens, but not a split screen. The monitor is 1600 x 900.

Can I use split screens on an extra monitor I have? I can get a mirror image on both screens, but not a split screen. The monitor is 1600 x 900 AOC 20inch monitor. Hope I haven't wasted my money buying this £69 monitor. My 13" Macbook Pro is a little small for my ageing eyes. Thanks

In the display settings on your computer uncheck "mirrored". This will put the displays in "extended" mode. In extended mode you can set the external display to its native resolution as well as drag windows from your computer to the external monitor. I assume that is what you mean when you say "split screen".

Virtual Screen but not Screen Sharing

Hello all,
I am wondering if there is a way that I can allow a user to log into my machine with a "virtual desktop" but NOT share my screen. Consider the following scenario: Machine A and B both run OS X Lion. Machine A is logged in as user A. Machine B would like to log into their account remotely through screen sharing. Once they are authenticated, they have the option to "Connect to a virtual display" or "Share the display" The challenge is that I would like to allow them to connect to their virtual display but NOT allow them to share the display while I am using it. Is this possible?
To rephrase the question: is it possible to make remote users request permission to share the screen but not to log into their virtual desktop?
Thanks in advance for any help you can offer!!
Bests,
Phil

Hmm, this is not my experience... is it possible that I have something incorrectly configured then? My setup is as follows:
Machine A:
     - Mac OS X Lion 10.7.4
     - User A: Administrator
     - User B: Regular User
Machine B:
     - Mac OS X Lion 10.7.4
Scenario:
     - User A is logged into Machine A
     - From Machine B, select Finder->Go->Connect to Server and enter vnc://address_of_Machine_A
     - Enter credentials of **User B**
I am presented with two options:
     - "Share the Display - 'User A' is using the display"
     - "Connect to a Virtual Display - See your desktop and files"
When I select the latter, everything goes smoothly with the virtual desktop and both users are able to work simultaneously. However, when I select the first option, User B is able to share User A's screen without entering any additional credentials, which represents a serious privacy issue. Any ideas?
Thanks so much in advance for your help!
Phil

A way to have notifications appear on lock screen but not activate the screen each time I receive one?

Using an iPhone 4 with iOS 5.0.1 I like how I can have my notifications appear on my lock screen (usually for a new email) but dislike how every time I receive a notification, my iPhone screen lights up with the notification. Is there a way to continue receiving notifications on my lock screen but not have the screen illuminate every time I receive one? It's a constant distraction when I am at work, and I like to keep my phone turned face-up on my desk in case I get a call.

No

Welcome to Apple Discussions, RipapArt!
Any ideas why this has suddenly happened...
Possibly a corrupted file. If you have not already done so, you might considered booting you computer from the Tiger Install disk, holding down the "c" key. Select your language and then from the Utilities menu, select Disk Utility.
In the left pane of Disk Utility, click on your hard disk. In the right pane, click the First Aid tab and then near the bottom click Repair Disk. If any errors are found, it will try to repair them. Re-run repair disk until it reports zero errors. Then click Repair Permissions. Afterwards, reboot the computer normally. Launch Disk Utility from the Utilities folder and Repair Permissions.
Launch a browser to see if you can get online. If the problem persists, launch System Preferences and then Network. Click Assist me and use the Assistant to create a new location and follow the prompts.

Image looks grainy in Photoshop CC but not in CS5

All of my images look grainy int he dark areas in CC, but not in CS5. Is there a display setting that I'm missing? Side note, the saved images look fine. They only look bad in the CC UI.

I hope their life improves and they don't feel the need to take it out others through tech support message boards. Props to sharmstr for being so cool about it all.
Well if that's how you are going to be!!!! Station is OK, but this is an old thread, and there was a full moon back then.
So is it a display problem rather than a performance one? I think it was mentioned that the artefacts a not there on saved documents. It is also one of those issues that would be fixed by resetting preferences, because the cache levels would go back to four. It actually says right there on Preferences > Performance in the History & Cache section 'Set cache levels to two or higher for optimum performance' .
There is so much good information right there among the oficial help pages

Which makes it very disappointing that Tech Support couldn't track it down. I suspect they work more from Expert Systems than their own knowledge, so they have a bit of work to do there.
