My display is very large

My son used my imac and played a game via the internet.  Now my display is very large and I can not make it smaller.  Any suggestions

Check the resolution in System Preferences > Displays > Display tab > set to the highest resolution.
In SL it's the last on the list, in Lion it's the first one.

  • Iphone 3GS displaying icons very largely.......

    I am facing a very strange problem, my iphone model 3GS is displaying icons on the screen very large in size, than the usal format.
    I tried to solve the problem by switching on/off, tried the settings options.
    But did not go for restoring the factory settings, because of the doubt i may lose all the contacts saved in the phone.
    Please advise any solution and clear the doubt of losing the saved contacts if i apply the factory resetting option.

    If you select erase all content and settings on your iPhone, this does exactly as provided - it will erase all content and settings - everything but the firmware/included software.
    If you restore your iPhone with iTunes as a new iPhone or not from your iPhone's backup, the same applies.
    Contacts are designed to be synced with a supported application on your computer. With Windoze, this can be with Outlook 2003 or 2007 along with syncing calendar events, or with Windows Contacts for syncing contacts only - the address book used by Windows Mail with Vista.
    If you aren't currently using a supported application on your computer for contacts - the address book is empty, before syncing contacts with the application enter one contact in the application on your computer. Make this contact up if needed, which can be deleted later. This will provide a merge prompt with the first sync for this data, which you want to select. Contacts between the two will be kept synchronized with following syncs. Syncing contacts with a supported application on your computer is selected under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes. You can do this before restoring your iPhone with iTunes which will also give you access to your contacts on your computer.

    was recently sent a very large emoji message amd now when i try to acces messages it will not display mesagges and then will bring me back to the home page

    Quit the messages app and reset your phone.
    Go to the Home screen and double click the Home button. That will reveal the row of recently used apps at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold on the app in question until it jiggles and displays a minus sign. Tap the minus sign to actually quit the app. Then tap anywhere on the screen above that bottom row to return the screen to normal. Then restart the app and see if it works normally. Then reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart.
    After the phone restarts go into Messages and delete the thread containing the problem message.

  • How can NI FBUS Monitor display very large recorded files

    NI FBUS Monitor version 3.0.1 outputs an error message "Out of memory", if I try to load a large recorded file of size 272 MB. Is there any combination of operating system (possible Vista32 or Vista64) and/or physical memory size, where NI FBUS Monitor can display such large recordings ? Are there any patches or workarounds or tools to display very large recorded files?

    Hi,
    NI-FBUS Monitor does not set the limitation on the maximum record file size. The physical memory size in the system is one of the most important factors that affect the loading of large record file.  Monitor will try loading the entire file into the memory during file open operation.
    272MB is a really large file size. To open the file, your system must have sufficient physical memory available.  Otherwise "Out of memory" error will occur.
    I would recommend you do not use Monitor to open a file larger than 100MB. Loading of a too large file will consume the system memory quickly and decrease the performance.

  • Profile Performanc​e and Memory shows very large 'VI Time' value

    When I run the Profile Performance and Memory tool on my project, I get very large numbers for VI Time (and Sub VIs Time and Total Time) for some VIs.  For example 1844674407370752.5.  I have selected only 'Timing statistics' and 'Timing details'.  Sometimes the numbers start with reasonable values, then when updating the display with the snapshot button they might get large and stay large.  Other VI Times remain reasonable.

    What gives?

    les,
    the number indicates some kind of overroll.... so, do you have a vi where this happens all the time? Can you share this with us?
    thanks,

  • Slow Performance or XDP File size very large

    There have been a few reports of people having slow performance in their forms (tyically for Dynamic forms) or file sizes of XDP files being very large.
    These are the symptoms of a problem with cut and paste in Designer where a Process Instruction (PI) used to control how Designer displays a specific palette is repeated many many times. If you look in your XDP source and see this line repeated more than once then you have the issue:
    The problem has been resolved by applying a style sheet to the XDP and removing the instruction (until now). A patch has been released that will fix the cut and paste issue as well as repair your templates when you open them in a designer with the patch applied.
    Here is a blog entry that describes the patch as well as where to get it.
    http://blogs.adobe.com/livecycle/2009/03/post.html

    My XDP file grow up to 145mb before i decided to see what was actually happening.
    It appears that the LvieCycle Designer ES program sometimes writes alot of redundant data... the same line millions of times over & over again.
    I wrote this small java program which reduced the size up to 111KB !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (wow what a bug that must have been!!!)
    Here's the sourcecode:
    import java.io.BufferedReader;
    import java.io.BufferedWriter;
    import java.io.FileNotFoundException;
    import java.io.FileReader;
    import java.io.FileWriter;
    import java.io.IOException;
    public class MakeSmaller {
    private static final String DELETE_STRING = "                           <?templateDesigner StyleID aped3?>";
    public static void main(String... args) {
      BufferedReader br = null;
      BufferedWriter bw = null;
      try {
       br = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(args[0]));
       bw = new BufferedWriter(new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter(args[0] + ".small")));
       String line = null;
       boolean firstOccurence = true;
       while((line = br.readLine()) != null) {
        if (line.equals(DELETE_STRING)) {
         if (firstOccurence) {
          bw.write(line + "\n");
          firstOccurence = false;
        } else {
         bw.write(line + "\n");
         firstOccurence = true;
      } catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
       e.printStackTrace();
      } catch (IOException e) {
       e.printStackTrace();
      } finally {
       if (br != null) {
        try {
         br.close();
        } catch (IOException e) {
         e.printStackTrace();
       if (bw != null) {
        try {
         bw.close();
        } catch (IOException e) {
         e.printStackTrace();
    File that gets generated is the same as the xdp file (same location) but gets the extension .small. Just in case something goes wrong the original file is NOT modified as you can see in the source code. And yes Designer REALLY wrote that line like a gazillion times in the .xdp file (shame on the programmers!!)
    You can also see that i also write the first occurrence to the small file just in case its needed...

  • When writing an email the letters are so small that I can hardly read them. If I increase the size then the outgoing email letters are very large.

    letters are very large. I have tried changing the font but it doesn't help. This is very annoying. How can I remedy this?

    I use these settings, so try them:
    Tools > Options > Display > Formatting tab
    or
    Menu icon > Options > Options > Display > Formatting tab
    * eg: Default font: Arial
    * size 14
    Note: this sets the default font to be used in both display of messages and the font to use as default in composing messages.
    Under Plain text Messages
    * select: Style : Regular Size: Regular and colour Black
    * Click on 'Advanced' button
    * make sure all sizes - 14
    * select; 'allow messages to use other fonts'
    * Select; 'Use fixed width fonts for plain text messages'
    * click on OK
    Note: This will use the default eg: Arial to be used, but allows the display of messages to use other fonts if the sender specified them.
    then at top click on 'Composition' > General tab
    note: This sets the default composing text colour and background colour.
    under HTML
    * Font: Variable width
    * Size : Medium
    * Select a text colour for writing emails eg: Blue
    * Select background colur eg: white
    click on OK to save and close Options.

  • Best technology to navigate through a very large XML file in a web page

    Hi!
    I have a very large XML file that needs to be displayed in my web page, may be as a tree structure. Visitors should be able to go to any level depth nodes and access the children elements or text element of those nodes.
    I thought about using DOM parser with Java but dropped that idea as DOM would be stored in memory and hence its space consuming. Neither SAX works for me as every time there is a click on any of the nodes, my SAX parser parses the whole document for the node and its time consuming.
    Could anyone please tell me the best technology and best parser to be used for very large XML files?

    Thank you for your suggestion. I have a question,
    though. If I use a relational database and try to
    access it for EACH and EVERY click the user makes,
    wouldn't that take much time to populate the page with
    data?
    Isn't XML store more efficient here? Please reply me.You have the choice of reading a small number of records (10 children per element?) from a database, or parsing multiple megabytes. Reading 10 records from a database should take maybe 100 milliseconds (1/10 of a second). I have written a web application that reads several hundred records and returns them with acceptable response time, and I am no expert. To parse an XML file of many megabytes... you have already tried this, so you know how long it takes, right? If you haven't tried it then you should. It's possible to waste a lot of time considering alternatives -- the term is "analysis paralysis". Speculating on how fast something might be doesn't get you very far.

  • Numbers file sizes very large

    I've noticed that file sizes in Numbers are very large. I was using Excel for a long time and all the files I created were between 20-30KB. The files consisted of an Excel workbook, with 1-2 worksheets in it. The same files in Numbers are 200-300KB and if I save them over the network from another computer to my computer, they jump up to over 1MB. Any ideas on this?

    Hello
    Nothing to do with graphics items.
    An XL file as well as an AppleWorks one is a compiled document in which many components are stored in a very compact shape. One byte was sufficient in AW to represent an operand as they where aboutone hundred.
    In Numbers, everything is described in pure text with complementary delimiters.
    When a formula uses the operand "COUNTBLANK" this one appears with its 10 letters.
    In XL as well as in AW6, a date is stored as a floating number while in Numbers it's stored as the string "mercredi 23 janvier 2008 22:33:19"
    Sama thing for every attributes of every cell.
    So this results in a huge file store in XML format. To spare space, when we close a document, the XML file is packed in .gz format.
    This is the Index.xml.gz file that we may see clicking a Numbers document wit ctrl depressed and selecting the contextual menu item "Show Package's contents".
    Double click onto Index.xml.gz will unpack it.
    giving the expanded Index.xml file.
    I assumes that they are applications dedicated to XML files.
    I don't know them so I just drag and drop the XML file onto a free text editor named Bean which I find really interesting.
    Doing that, we may examine the file's contents.
    If someone knows a correct free application able to open and display correctly the XML files, I'm interested

  • Graph data causes VI file to very large

    My VI reads data files with up to 500,000 data points and displays them in various formats in graphs.  If I "make current values default" with all these graphs populated the file size when I save the VI is very large (72 MB).  Is there any way to not save the all the graph data with the VI and just the parameters so that the VI starts the same way the next time I open it to process a new set of data?  I don't need all the graphs to be populated when I start again.

    72MB!
    Be aware that you don't have to make eveything default. You can programmatically set only the necessary items to Default with a property node when the program starts and/or ends. My point being, you shouldn't have to "make current values default" then save.

  • Very large cursor

    Using most applications, Stickies, TextEdit, Quark, the initial display cursor is very large, 1.5". I can type and the text is the usual size, I think Helvetica 12 pt as default, but the cursor is still way too big. When I change the point size of the text either larger or smaller, the cursor eventually becomes a normal size.
    Also, Mac Help menu displays the text of the help pages with gigantic spacing between each line of type, even though the text is normal size.
    It's as if the default leading has become very large, although I haven't made that change that I know of.
    Any ideas of what to do?

    Open your System Preferences/Universal Access preference pane, check in "Seeing" to insure that "Zoom" isn't selected.
    Also check the settings for "Mouse"- you can move the slider to change the size of the cursor.

  • IPhone Display is so large that I have to move the screen to reach all the icons...!!!!!!!!!!

    Note: Ticket Number 11362 is now displayed under iOS Diagnostics.
    The display on my iPhone does not fit the screen. It is so large that I have to move around the screen to find "Slide to Unlock". By the time I have unlocked to answer a call, the iPhone has either hung up, or is taking a message.
    When I open the iPhone screen to make a call, the display is so large that I have to move the screen up to reach the "Slide to Unlock". This is very tedious and slow.
    When I reach the standard display screen ["Messages" + "Calendar" + "Photos" + "Camera", etc.] the icons are so large that all will not fit on the screen. I have to move around the screen to find the appropriate icon. "Mail" and "telephone" are so far down that I have to laborously move the screen to reach them.
    Pressing the icons works, but the next screen is equally so large that I have to move the screen around to see all the parts.
    I was able to delete all previous call records, but that has not helped. The display is still LARGER THAN THE SCREEN... SO LARGE THAT NOT ALL THE ICONS APPEAR AND I HAVE TO MOVE THE SCREEN AROUND TO SEE THE ONES AT THE RIGHT SIDE, THE LEFT SIDE, AND THE BOTTOM.
    I CAN ONLY GET TO THE BOTTOM... "MAIL", "PHONE", AND "ipod" ICONS BY SLOWLY MOVING THE SCREEN UP UNTIL THEY COME ON SCREEN.
    The top of my iPhone display shows AT&T 3G. My Products registered shows iPhone 4.
    I DO NOT DO e-Mail on my iPhone. I do not do music on my iPhone.
    I ONLY USE THIS CLEARLY DEFECTIVE DEVICE FOR TELEPHONE CALLS. IT IS MY ONLY TELEPHONE.
    My "Settings" page shows absolutely blank.
    Do any of you folks out there in "Apple land" - realize that I have owned Apple products since the first Macs and still own Apple computers... As well as Apple Stock - have any idea at all how to help me get this piece of junk to work properly...?

    Go to Settings>General>Accessibility
    Turn "Zoom" off

  • HT5548 Is it possible to change the size of the icons shown in Launchpad? Mine seem very large.

    Is it possible to change the size of the icons in Launchpad? Mine seem very large.

    Thanks for the reply UKoC. You are close on the size. I would say they are about an inch to an inch and a half in width and only seven across the row. They just seem quite large on my display and I figured there would be an easy way. I kept thinking I just had to be missing the way for adjusting them since everything else seems to be so easy to personalize. Funny thing is that I have watched an online tutorial twice now on Apple's web site showing Launchpad and the icons shown there are smaller and more of them. I just thought I was missing the fix somehow. Thanks for confirming this.

  • I could not close the ipad because the display frozened in large font and could no go back

    Why is this happening? I could not close the iPad because the display frozened in very large font and could no go back.

    First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.
