Nikon pictures don't fill entire screen

I have a nikon D3000 camera which i used pictures from for a home movie. When i play the movie on my new samsung un55d8000 the pictures from the nikon don't fill the entire screen. There is a few inches of black on both sides of the picture. Is this right? How can i make the pictures fill the entire screen?

Picture size is plenty big enough.
My thoughts are you are shooting the photos in the camera at 3:2 aspect ratio.
Is the camera switchable to shoot at 16:9?
Or you can resize the existing photos in the Timeline to fill the screen.
Double click a photo in the Timeline and it will open in the Viewer.
Place the playhead over the clip in the Timeline. You should have the same clip in the Viewer and Canvas.
Go to the View Pop Up Menu button at the top of the Viewer, click it and select Image + Wireframe.
Click the tab that says Motion and you will see a bunch of controls. These alter Scale, Crop, Centre etc.
Or you can click the video Tab and drag to suit.
This will work OK if strict framing is nor an issue.
Tip: If you set the % (button next to the View Pop Up) to less than the Viewer size you can see off screen stuff. Normally it would be set to Fit to Window.

TS4085 the image does not fill entire screen of iPad, therefore not the entire TV screen. Why?

When I try to mirror a video from my iPad to TV using Apple TV, the video does not fill entire screen of iPad nor the entire screen of my TV, Is there a way to strech the image to fit screen(s)?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
There are two factors in play here. Firstly the iPad screen is 4:3, your TV is 16:9, so when mirroring the mirrored iPad screen is never going to fill the TV screen. If on top of that, whatever you are watching doesn't fill the iPad screen then that too will be reflected in what is seen in the mirrored image.
You cannot stretch this using the Apple TV or iPad controls, but your TV may have a setting you can use. Generally speaking though this will distort the image and you would likely be best leaving it alone.

Firefox is expanding to fill entire screen, no access to controls

There is something wonky going on. After I launch firefox which I have done for years, today its started automatically expanding to fill whole screen, no access to any controls, etc.
I did try to install software no such luck.
See attached screenshot -hmm how do I attach a screenshot.... well if I did you would JUST see the browser filling entire area of my screen (and no making it larger or smaller with mac controls does nothings)
you see the top bar for a SPLIT second then it moves up and all you get is this big screen.
Thanks - mac here 10. 6.08

Make sure that you do not run Firefox in full screen mode (press F11 or Fn + F11 to toggle; Mac: Command+Shift+F).

Web pages don't fill the screen completely and with the font settings on 16 or larger the links and letters/words overlay making it difficult to read.

You can use an extension to set a default font size and page zoom on web pages.

If you have increased the minimum font size then try the default setting "none" as a high value can cause such issues.

Drop zone content fills entire screen for some reason. Help!

Hi, everyone. I've used iDVD for years, but have not had this problem before. I'm trying to use the 4:3 template called "Projector". There is only one drop zone, which should show what the projector is playing. However, when I right click the area and "Fill with Content" (I want video playing there), it doesn't just fill the small square where it's supposed to. Instead, it just takes up the entire screen of the project, completely overlapping the template. In other words, I can't even see the Projector template anymore.
Has anyone else had this experience, or even better, have a solution to it?
Thanks!

Actually, that's a perfectly acceptable way to add content to that drop zone. I've been doing it for years. With a single click on the video box (once "fill with content" is selected), you're even able to adjust where the video starts and ends. If you're just looking to load on general video from your iMovie project, it's a great shortcut to use.
I know the other method of loading content into the drop zone. But that didn't really answer my question as to why the entire screen was filling up with content. I've re-installed the software twice, which fixes it, but I'm just wondering why that problem keeps occurring over time.

My pictures don't fill the whole 4 x 6 page when printing

We have a cannon pixma printer and know when I try to print my pictures on a 4 x 6 page they don't fill the whole page I have taken border off. Please help

How much of the page is filled? (please measure it with a ruler)

Timeline Window will not adjust, fills ENTIRE screen, help please?

All of a sudden my timeline window FILLS my screen and I cannot get to the bottom of the timeline to adjust the size. It has tons of extra grey space on top of the video tracks, and tons of extra space below the audio tracks. It makes editing difficult as I cannot move along the timeline or anything. I wish I could attach a screenshot. Basically just imagine the timeline window extending the ENTIRE size of the screen, with no way to make it smaller. Help!

Apps not filling entire screen!

Hey,
I am having a problem with OSX 10.6.8 regarding maximized windows. When I maximize a window (like Safari), it fills up the screen as usual, except that it leaves a strip of a few pixels at the bottom of the screen where I can see my wallpaper through the space. This only happens to maximized windows like Safari or Garageband, not fullscreen programs like games and movies.
I hope that made sense. Thank you in advance!
Here is a screen shot that will (hopefully) explain things better. Note that I have changed the wallpaper to a solid bright green so it is easy to see. (click on the picture to see it at a larger size)

That's perfectly normal.
In fact in most applications, the green maximise button will cause the window to resize to fit the contents; not to fill the screen. That's the way OS X has always been.
For true full screen apps you need Lion.

My iWeb Pages Don't Fill the Screen When Posted

I'm new to the whole web page building. I just made a website through iWeb '09, posted it through GoDaddy, but when I look it up on the web, the pages I made don't fill the web window. Top to bottom they're fine, but on the sides, they aren't as wide as the web window. Any help?

Some pictures don't fit ipad screen

Some of my pictures don't fir my ipad screen

When I look in ituns, I see a bunch of apps down at the bottom.
I didn't realize there was an 11 page maximum. I guess I'll have to group some apps into folders so that all apps can have a spot on the 11 pages.

External display, image not filling entire screen.

I just bought a tv to use as a external monitor for my mac however when i boot into windows 7 the resolution (1080p) is fine but its not filling the screen completely, there is 1 inch of black on the top and bottom and about 1.5 inches of black on the left and right sides. it does not do this when i am booted into osx.
i think this could be because of how hdtv's are made and the resolution isn't exact (usually a little bit greater) so windows isn't "stretching" the image to fill the screen. i think osx does it automatically but windows doesn't. if this is the problem how do i get windows to stretch the image? i tried switching the screen mode on my tv's remote but that didn't work.
thanks for the help everybody and merry christmas!

exactly the same for me. fulla hd tv, no problem tv/mac ->full screen; but with bootcamp/win7 no way, even with the new 9.12 Ati driver...
thnks for help and happy new year

Safari windows don't fill up screen when zoom button is clicked

Hello, when I use the MacMini I have at work and click the zoom button on a Safari window if fills up the screen, except for the dock, but when I do that on my iMac at home it shrinks and moves the window to the lower left corner below the display edge. If there were a way to attach grab shots I could post it on here. Any idea what would be causing this? Thanks!!

HI,
There isn't any full screen mode for Safari alone, you would need to download and install Glims so you can enable the Full Screen Mode and it works like a charm.

Macbook Air connected to External Monitor does not fill entire screen

Hello All!
I am having a bit of trouble. I recently purchased a MacBook Air for work, and I bought a Samsung moniter to go connect the Air to when I am in the office. However, when I connect the Air to my moniter the enitre screen doesn't fill up (please see attached pic). Can anyone help?
Much Thanks!

UPDATE: I just came back after a visit to the apple service provider here in New Delhi. They have replaced the logic board on my macbook pro and guess what? the situation is still the same. No difference what so ever as far as the screen resolution is concerned. I can still see those black bars in the exact same places i.e. the right hand side as well as on the top of the screen. Even the size of the black bars are still the same.
I am so upset right now. After trying my best in order to solve this problem I went to the AASP with high hopes. I was very confident that after replacing the logic board this annoying problem would go away but unfortunately that's not the case. Even the Apple Engineer was clueless on how to solve this problem.
I think I'll call apple care and speak to the customer relations regarding a replacement.
If any of you can come up with a solution to this problem please let me know.
I'm all ears!!!

I have a hp2311x led monitor. It is connected with an hdmi. The picture does not fill the screen?

How do you get a full screen on this monitor? When I go to menu image control, custom scaling and change the overscan from auto to on the picture is streched and does not properly fit on the screen. Any suggestions. I have a AMD Radeon HD 6670 1 GB DDR5 video card on a new Dell xps8300 I-7.

Hi...
You need to go into the Catalyst control panel, find the option for HDTV and there should be the control to reduce the underscan to 0%. The issue is that HDMI is a CE ( i.e. TV) standard so the graphics card treats the HDMI connection as a TV and will underscan to compensate for standard TV overscan.

Windows 7 desktop does not fill entire screen on macbook pro 17" (mid 2010)

Hi,
First of all I apologize for posting such a long question but in order to best describe the problem I am having with my MacBook Pro, I had to mention every detail.
I recently installed windows 7 x64 home premium on my new macbook pro 17 inch (mid 2010). After successfully installing the bootcamp drivers (version 3.1) I have noticed that my screen resolution has become slightly smaller than before. There are half an inch thick black bars on the right side as well as on the top of the screen.
This problem is not limited to windows, I'm having the same problem in mac osx after the windows 7 installation. Even on the start up gray screen.
I have tried almost every trick in the book, adjusting the screen resolution from the display settings menu (which by the way are on 1920x1080), checking all the settings on the nvidia control panel, resetting the SMC, resetting the VRAM, running the hardware diagnostic test (short as well as the long one), formatting the windows partition, formatting the Mac OSX partition then performing a fresh install of both. So far, I have been frustrated with failure.
After trying my best to resolve this issue on my own, I tried my luck with apple support. The customer representative was very helpful and listened carefully as I explained the problem to him. He asked me first to check for any available updates on my mac osx as well as in win 7. I told him that I had already installed every available update in both the OS's. He then asked me to reset the SMC and after that to reset the VRAM. Even though I had already tried this, I still gave it another shot but that didn't help.
Since my MBP was still under the standard warranty, (I have also purchased the Apple Care Protection Plan) he asked me to take it to an Apple Authorized Service Provider. I took his advice and went to the nearest AASP. The Apple Engineer over there performed the same steps, adjusting screen resolution, resetting SMC and VRAM, but even he was not able to resolve this problem. He suggested that I should get my graphics cars replaced or if required upon inspection, the logic board replaced. To be very honest, I was very skeptical about his suggestion as the laptop is brand new, hardly 2 months old. How is it possible that there could be a problem with the hardware? I asked him whether it is possible to restore the firmware of the graphics card as the problem could be software related. He said that Apple have not started issuing firmware restoration CD's for the latest mid 2010 MBP's so a firmware restore won't be possible. My best bet would be to get the graphics card replaced or the whole logic board replaced.
So you see, I have been down almost every possible road which could have lead to resolving this issue but unfortunately I am stuck with it. I hope any of you could offer a different approach in order to get rid of this annoying problem.
Any help would be highly appreciated. (Trust ME!!!)
