on the bottom right hand side of your viewing window you have three lines click on that and and use your track pad to make the window as big or as small as you like.

Making the font in the output window bigger

You know when you run a console application and you're looking at the output in the output window at the bottom, the typeface is a little small. Is there a way to change that to a bigger font?

I don't think there is a way to make just the font in the log window bigger - but you can increase the size of the font used in JDeveloper by editing the ide.properties file.

Possible to float an app window over all Spaces?

Hi Folks,
I'll give you a couple of examples.
1) I use a small countdown/stopwatch app that I would like to float over everything, no matter which Space I might be in at the time.
2) I use Entourage to remind me of appointments, events, things to do etc. It would be mighty handy if the little "Office Reminders" window would come to the front of everything I have open in whatever Space I'm in so I don't have to go hunting for it each time the reminder alert sounds.
Is making a window float over all the Spaces one of those tricky behind-the-scenes Unix command things? I know nothing about all that, but maybe it's time I learned!
Cheers!
Chris

William,
Thanks for the info. I'm a bit embarrassed since all I had to do was to look more carefully at the list of possible spaces. I never did see "every space" before.
Anyway, it has indeed worked for the little timer app which now floats proudly above everything else in every space, but unfortunately it hasn't worked for the "Microsoft Office Reminders.app" which supposedly is a separate app from Entourage, and, as you can imagine, I use it all the time.
It's rather annoying, actually, as what happens is that the little reminder window opens in whatever space you're in at the time, but if you don't happen to "snooze" or "dismiss" a reminder and then you move on to another space, any new reminder gets added onto the reminder window but in the original space. Then you have to go looking for the reminder window which, if you're using a lot of different spaces, can be well buried. And unfortunately, pressing Fn-F8 or F9 doesn't help because the little reminder window then disappears! Aaarrgghh!
Oh well. I assume the problem could be fixed by Microsoft or Apple, but it's such an obscure problem that it won't be dealt with.
But thanks again, William. Very helpful.
Regards,
Chris

Cant Capture Screen Recordings with QuickTime Player for making App Previews

cant Capture Screen Recordings with QuickTime Player for making App Previews
went into that page:
https://developer.apple.com/app-store/app-previews/imovie/Creating-App-Previews- with-iMovie.pdf
upgraded to quick time 7 pro
got stuck here:
" 4. In the window that appears, select your iOS device as the Camera and Microphone input source".
the window appeared, no selection is possible

The instructions in the Developer page you link contemplates that you are using the QTX version instead of QT7 Pro:
vs.
QT7 Pro does not allow selection of iOS devices as the Camera and Microphone  input source.
QTX is the QT version included with Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard and later. However, as explained in the Developer page you linked above, if your Mac is not already using it, you need to upgrade to the current (OS X 10.10 Yosemite) OS X Version to use iOS devices as the recording sources in QTX.

Display - window bigger than physical screeen

The information displayed is slightly bigger than the physical screen.
ie the icons at the bottom are truncated; the text describing the icon isn't visible.

Hi,
Swipe your thumb and index finger together across the screen to descease the app window size.
Also, tap Settings / General / Accessibility. If Zoom is on, turn it off.

Resizing an apps window interrupts mplayer

Hi all,
I use mplayer to play music from internet radio but when I resize another apps window, the music is interrupted. I have an AMD Athlon 64x2 2.4GHz machine and this seems rather unacceptable to me... ;-) I have always used a custom-compiled kernel on my Arch x86-64 installation but this problem seems to have started with using a custom 2.6.24.x kernel.
Any hints on what kernel config item(s) could produce this problem? Is it a matter of unfair multitasking resource allocation?
My thanks in advance.

On the mini, try booting into the Safe Mode using your normal account. Disconnect all peripherals except those needed for the test. Shut down the computer and then power it back up after waiting 10 seconds. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear and again when you log in. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. When you reboot normally, the initial reboot may be slower than normal. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart by using the application un-installer. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don’t do them all at once.

Pictures look like they transfer via iTunes app window - but don't appear on iOS device

My pictures look like they transferred to iPad (the new) or iPhone (4) in iTunes (on the App page). I can see the files in the little app file share/transfer window, but the pictures do not show up in the iPhoto App on either iOS device.
Tried deleting the ios iphoto folder mentioned in a different post - did not help.
Deleted all pictures from the app window, and then synched, then tried putting in half as many (mostly because I didn't want to wait for a whole bunch to transfer like the first time ... still showing up in app window, still taking a long time to synch and saying that it is loading, and app percentage of disk space grows accordingly on device (in itunes monitor window). Go to iPhoto on device .... Only pictures are the ones taken by that device.
Photos in the sunflower still work like always, just can't use the cool iPhoto on any of my pictures not taken by the ipad or iphone!!!! GRRRRR!!!!!

This is happening on both the new iPad and iPhone 4.
I wrote under time pressure yesterday, here is more complete history.
purchased iPhoto app on the New iPad, then plugged in, launched iTunes, went to App tab, went to File Sharing - selected iPhoto, Clicked Add... button, selected photos/iphoto ... used daisyA to select all and clicked open.
All photo names appeared in the iPhoto Documents box. Then clicked Sync button (3 hours later) Sync complete - all photos listed in iPhoto Documents box in iTunes. Memory indicator shows application consumption of memory has grown appropriately for having added all those photos.
eject and disconnect iPad .... no photos appear in iTunes except for those taken by the device. Did same procedure on iPhone 4 .... same result. I can group, edit, view, and tinker with the photos taken by the device (ie iPhoto working as it should), however I can't see any of the photos from my long time iPhoto library not taken on this device that the iTunes file share window on the app tab says are there (and app memory usage also indicates are probably there).
Turned off both devices and then re-started -- no help
Soft reset both devices (dimple & power key, hold till restart happens) - even though the power down / power up should do at least the same thing. No help
Deleted iPod Photo Cache in iPhoto app (home/pictures/right click iphoto show package contents ... )
Synched again - no help
Deleted all pictures listed on app tab in file share window for iPhoto iOS app.
Synched - indicator for amount of memory used by apps decreases appropriately
Still can see and use photos taken by device and no others
Powered down then re- started device again.
Plugged in and open iTunes, use file share window on app tab to add just a dozen pictures this time (instead of all). Then sync - Still cannot see the pictures in the iPhoto app on the device .... file share window on app tab of iTunes says they are there. Indicator for memory useage says they are there - progress bar during sync says they are being added, I just cant see them in the iPhoto iOS app when I click on the Photos selector in the iOS iPhoto app.
Photos are on the iPad and synching with the ipad from iphoto into the sunflower app that comes with the devices. Just won't go into iPhoto!

More Than One App Window Open At A Time

Hi,
Having just done a complete fresh Erase & Install of OS X 10.6, after having had 10..4.11, I find that if I have more than one applications window open with another applications window on the screen ~ say a Finder window, and a Photoshop window, although if I select the "Show All" command, I can see them together on screen, but if I select either of the windows, the other applications window disappears ~ and it's driving me nuts ~ IYSWIM?
Although the disappearing or hidden window is useful, at times I find I need to drag something from one apps window to another. But if I try that, as soon as I select the item I wish to drag into the other app, that applications window disappears.
I know I'm being dense, but I just cannot sort it out. Can any kind soul please help or advise?
Many Thanks

No extra applications had been installed, just the OS X install, so to save time in the long term, I decided to reinstall OS X again, and now the problem is fixed.
With regards to your comments that an Erase & Install is a waste of time, I think thats a bit of a sweeping statement. As it depends on the situation and the users computer status. If you install programs on a regular basis, for say beta testing, then you can end up with a lot of crud in there. An erase & Install returns your machine to pristine condition. The important thing to remember is to plan well, and make good backups of your data, prefs and settings etc.
Thanks for responding all the same.

OSX 10.8.5 CC Desktop App window empty

Hi,
I have the following problem. I used After Effects CC for a customer project and wantet to browse the text animation presets. The system told me, that Bridge is not installed. After logging in at the Adobe CC homepage and clicking on the download button for Bridge I got the message: Unknown Server Error.
I than followed the steps on the adobe page to solve the problem and updatet the CC desktop app to the newest version. After that the app window simply stays complete empty / blank. Several restarts, deinstallation and reinstallation of the desktop app did not help. The window is still empty.
When I now click on the Bridge download button and accept opening with CreativeCloud(URIHandler) with another click, nothing happens. The window is empty and I cannot install anything.
I also tried the second solution on the CC page with deleting the opm.db file in the folder: Library/Application Support/Adobe/OOBE
But unfortunately there is no file with that name...?
The system, java etc. is also updatet to the latest versions
Please help.

Thanks for the reply.
I have quit and reopened the cc app several times without success.
Meanwhile I deleted the complete OOBE folder, deinstalled the CC application and installed again. Nothing changed.
When I turn off networking, the app works like expected and I can see the relevant menue with all menue points. But without network I cannot use them. When I turn on internet access again, the window remains blank after searching and probably finding network.
At the moment I cannot launch any CC application because the system identifies me as a test-user - at least that is what I think. If I could login using the cc desktop app, the programs should start as normal. But unfortunately the window is still blank.

The Apps window in my Creative Cloud updater is only showing a spinning blue wheel

I've just updated my app installer to the latest Creative Cloud one but when I open it up, the Apps window only shows a spinning blue wheel, no apps. The other windows (Assets, Community) seem fine.@

I faced the same problem and hours of searching peoples various solutions. Tried everything under the sun over the last 10 hours to get the Creative Cloud Apps to stop spinning it's blue wheel... and FINALLY I have managed to get this to work for me, using the CC Cleaner tool. Hopefully it works for others also:
Solution 2: Run the CC Cleaner tool
Run the CC Cleaner tool to remove the current installation of the Creative Cloud Desktop application. For information on how to download and use the CC Cleaner Tool, see Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6.
Choose option 3 within the CC Cleaner Tool and then Option 1.
Mac OS: Rename the /Library/Application Support/Adobe/OOBE to OOBE.old.
Windows: Rename the following OOBE folders to OOBE.old:
\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\OOBE
\Users\\AppData\Local\Adobe\OOBE
Reinstall the Creative Cloud Desktop application.

Is there any utility to send an app window from/to a specific display?

Dell2001FP(1200x1600 left);
and a Cintiq 12WX (bottom center1280x800)
