Make firefox stop going into full screen

I upgraded to Firefox 10 on my macbook pro snow leopard and now the browser keeps going into full screen mode automatically. If I toggle it off, it just goes back to full screen in a few seconds.
I have re-sized the screen and it still does it.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Flash Player crashes when going into full screen mode

Hey guys! It's basically as the title implies. Whenever I am watching a video and attempt to go into full screen mode, flash player crashes and I get an error window reading "Adobe Flash Player 11.3 r300 has stopped working". As a matter of fact, it doesn't even happen all the time. It happens most of the time, however. It has happened even immediately after searching for and installing the newest version. What might be causing this and what can I do to resolve it? I am using Windows 7 32-bit and Firefox as my browser.
Thanks in advance friends!

this may be hardware related. try unselecting "Hardware Acceleration..."
right click a movie or flash content and uncheck the box in the first tab in Settings. quit out of the browser and try fullscreen again.

Visualizer has stopped working in full screen mode

Hi, since getting the 10.2/10.2.1 updates my full screen visualizer has stopped working. It works inside the iTunes window but when I make it full screen it just shows me a freezed frame of the visualizer, it does not move.
Anyone else experiencing this?
Thanks!

I have the same issue.... after going to full screen to windowed and then back to full screen it does plays normally.... won't Apple ever say anything about this?!? I'll have to downgrade to ver. 9 this way....

In OS X Mavericks using Safari, the search bar at the top that i had on the previous system disappears only reappearing in the full screen. Do i have to go into full screen every time? Bit of a pain but no doubt I'm doing something wrong!

Those are all fine
Here is how to see RAM overloaded…
Reboot to see the system in it's default state.
Open TextEdit for the sake of it
Open Activity Monitor & Terminal from /Applications/Utilities.
Select the Memory tab
In Terminal enter the following command
memory_pressure -l critical
# note that is a lowercase L
RAM usage will climb, compression will begin the VM will become way more than the system has installed.
Eventually the system will start swapping (look for RED) - Watch the 'memory pressure' & 'Swap used' as this happens.
Try switching to TextEdit - the system is still coping !
Switch back to Terminal & hit ctrl+c to stop the process.
Watch the VM & memory pressure return to normal levels.
This OS kicks 4ss !
Your problems may lie elsewhere

Remote Desktop Connection Not Going To Full Screen on EIZO MX340 Monitor 1536x2048 Resolution

I am using a EIZO Rx-340 as a secondary monitor. So far I am only able to get into full screen by using Ctrl-Alt-Fn-Pause but it does not change the resolution. It does not help to move the slider to large. There is a black space at the top and bottom
of the display.

Hi,
Please take a try with the steps below:
1. Start "Remote Desktop Connection".
2. Click on "Options".
3. Click on the "Display" tab.
4. On "Display configuration" settings, you can change the "Remote Desktop Connection" display by moving the slider from "Small to Large".
5. By moving the "Slider" all the way to large, the display settings will automatically set to "Full Screen".
Here is the screenshot:
Also please take a check if the monitor itself is configured well.
Hope this may help
Best regards

Ipad mini goes into lock screen?

My ipad mini keeps going into lock screen whilst I am using it. What could be causing this?

If you do not touch the screen within the lock screen time period it will do this. If this is happening while you are actively touching the screen or other action then:
Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?
Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after the iPad shuts down, then press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds). Ignore the "Slide to power off"

No. Modern browsers are designed to protect users from that
kind of
manipulation. Typically, web users don't want their browsers
windows
manipulated.

BROKEN: FCP goes to full screen preview no matter what I click on!

I know I'm not offering a lot of details, but ANYWHERE I click except the menu, and FCP goes to full screen preview at the current cursor position.
What the heck is going on?

Nice--thank you! I have never touched FCP, but I am sitting here providing telephone support for a computer I can't see or touch... argh! And, my friend, is not that computer literate at times so you know how that goes when they are clicking on something completely different or describing things wrong.
So, that one's solved--but, it appears Compressor 2 is broke, and I'm advising him to reinstall at this point. Under Preview/Settings, I have him click to create a new setting... ("+", then Quicktime Export Components -- or anything else for that matter) -- and NO new setting appears (usually, "untitled" I believe). Compressor does NOTHING. Oh, and then it locks up some of the time apparently because he just gets stuck with the "pinwheel" mouse cursor...
Reinstall time, if I'm not mistaken. Don't know if Compressor can be reinstalled separately from FCP, but he says FCP is like a 3 hour job. I told him if he goes that far to upgrade to FCS 2 and Compressor 3 and install the latest.
Comments invited. Thanks for all the help.

Settings you make in ACR for a Raw file are written to the separate XMP side car file. (The Camera Raw preferences has this set by default and to my opinion it should stay so, but the other option is to save them in a central database)
However, opening the same file in ACR and make new adjustments the previous settings are overwritten by the new ones. You can save them separately but that would be a hell of a job. If you want to be on the safe side you should make a proper back up of the whole folder (be sure to have the XMP files included, by default those are hidden files in Bridge) before someone else starts playing with the settings. However, you can always go back to the default version using the option in the little menu icon next to the name op f the panel (first panel is Basic). click on the icon and from the provided menu choose 'Reset Camera Raw Defaults' to go back to the originals.
I don't use jpeg in ACR very often but I believe ACR settings for jpeg and tiff are written in the XMP data in the file itself instead of a separate XMP file. You can revert to default or make new settings that also overwrite the older settings.
Making adjustments in ACR shows the results in Bridge (it uses the XMP data for the preview) but to make it visible in other apps you also have to save them in Photoshop itself to make the changes persistent so that mail and print reflect your settings.
So basically, let her play with the files and either chose the option to save the files (bottom left in ACR Window and choose the wanted provided options or open and save them in Photoshop to get the proper result. And if you want to be on the safe side let here use her own copies and keep the originals to your self.

Why does my Imac screen slide and I lose my screen? It goes back to my desktop. Then sometimes my screen goes to full screen and I don't know how to get out of it.

Why does my Imac screen slide and I lose my screen ~ It goes back to my desktop.
Then sometimes my screen goes to full screen without me doing any commands, and I don't know how to get out of it without going to force quit and starting all over.

Hi,
When it goes full screen try moving the mouse up to top right of scren & see if there a double diagonal Arrow to click on.
On the other see if it's the silly implentation of Spaces/Mission Control/Expose in ML...

Iphoto 6 toolbar stopped appearing in full screen (mouse moved to bottom)

I have iPhoto 6.6 on an iMac core duo running osx 10.4.11. While it formerly worked correctly, now the toolbar no longer appears when the cursor is moved to the bottom of the screen in full screen edit mode.
I have determined the following:
The problem exists only in my main account (and only recently appeared) but works correctly in other accounts. In my main account I have tried the following, singly and in combinations:
Create a new iPhoto library, remove the iPhoto preferences file, login with the shift key down to disable login items, removed the /Library/Contextual menu items folder. None of these corrected the problem. In full screen edit mode, menu item View->Show Toolbar does show the toolbar. However, when the toolbar is hidden, it still does not automatically show when the cursor is moved to the bottom of the screen. Switching to other screen sizes does not correct the problem. The menu at the top of the screen does automatically appear when the cursor is moved to the top of the screen.
The term "main account" refers to an account in which I do my routine work. It does not have administrator privileges. I have other accounts on this system, including one just for admin.
Since the toolbar automatically appears in other accounts, I assume that some data in my account has been corrupted. It appears not to be the iphoto library or preferences file since I have replaced these, or any startup item since I have disabled these.
What else in my account could cause iPhoto to not correctly determine when the cursor is at the bottom of the screen? Or to otherwise cause this problem?

Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
ince the toolbar automatically appears in other accounts, I assume that some data in my account has been corrupted.
It could be a preference file other than iPhoto's that's interfering with iPhoto. This will tell you if that's the case:
Trouble Shooting Preferences
Go to HD/Users/Your_name/Library. Move the Preferences folder (in its entirety) to the Desktop and make a second copy of it so you have Copy A and B. Now try the the process again and determine if problem is fixed.
If the problem IS fixed, then go to the new Prefs folder that the OS will have created and open it up.
Open Copy B on the Desktop and select all of the items inside. Drag them into the open new library folder. When the Copy window comes up check the Apply to All check box and then click on the Don't Replace button as seen here. That will keep the new files created and bring back all of the others.
If the problem is NOT fixed, trash the new Prefs folder and move the intact Copy A folder back to the Library folder .
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
Note: There's now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.
