Open browser full screen

With browser bars becoming so cluttered, I have been researching a way to initialize the browser full screen (like pressing f:11). This would allow us to display images and artwork in an unfettered manner.

Pretty naive, I think.

  • Making apps open in full screen by default WITHOUT resume enabled.

    Hi guys,
    I love using apps in full screen on Lion and would like to have all apps capable of it open in full screen by default.  Unfortunately I've found the only way to do this is to have resume enabled which I really don't like as I find it annoying having to exit out of whatever document I was using last whenever word/acrobat etc. open.  Also don't want what I have been browsing on Safari previously to be seen.  I have read from other users in the discussions and in other forums that Lion should remember if you have exited an app while in full screen and will re-open in full screen.  Unfortunately this is not the case for me as I am having to click my apps in to full screen each time I open them.  Does anyone know if there is some sort of preference file I can clear to get this functionality?
    Thanks

    "How does one choose what player to use when , once saved to desktop, they all seem to open the file regardless of the type extension (.ave , .wmv and so on)?"
    You can select a "default" player to open a specific file by following the instructions in #2 of my previous post.
    Just make sure whichever player you download is for the Intel Mac.
    "For instance , say you`re in a forum and there`e is a "hey , look at this...' type of thing. The "look at this" being an attachment of some sort."
    This involves your "browser" plug-ins. Assuming you are using QuickTime, this is done through QuickTime MIME Settings.
    Quicktime>Quicktime Player Preferences>Advanced
    Click on the MIME Settings button.
    Some browsers have their own default player plug-ins that can override QuickTime when you make a player selection on certain website. For instance: Realplayer opens .rm files. QuickTime cannot open .rm files.
    In the next window that opens up make sure that Streaming-Streaming movies is enabled (checked).
    While you’re at it make sure all the boxes are enabled by clicking on the corresponding triangles so that they are pointed down.
    This will show the “hidden” boxes.
    Click the OK button.
    I would restart just to be on the safe side.
    =========================
    Sorry, I am not familiar with Intel Macs. Suggest that if you have any concerns besides QuickTime, you may wish to cross-post in the Intel-based iMac Forums where knowledgeable users using the same model computer as yourself hang out.
    Maybe it would be easier if you would advise the type of player(s) you are interested in? I am assuming QuickTime since you posted in its forum. Are you having an issue making QT your default player?

  • I can't get my applications to open to full screen. The apps are opening at about 75% and I cant figure out how to get them to open to the full screen.

    I cant get my applications to open to full screen. The apps are opening up to about 75% and i cant get them to extend to full screen.

    Which applications are you talking about? 
    Example: Browser application - At the bottom right corner of a browser window you will see a small square with 3 diagnal lines.  Place your cursor in that corner to stretch out your window to full screen.  The next time you open your browser app, the window will be full screen.

    Hi, after installing Adobe CC I tried opening Adobe Photoshop. This failed.
    I get the opening window where it says installing plugins searching etc, after which PS opens in full screen.
    Just moments after that there's a failure warning, no code number, only the warning that PS failed to open and PS will close.
    I tried downloading it for a second time, but this did'nt solve the problem.
    Befor the CC version I used a one year student version of Adobe CS6.
    What can I do?

    Regarding the Flash Player problem, disable Hardware Acceleration to circumvent driver incompatibilities.
    Regarding the Flash Pro installation problems, post in the Flash forums or http://forums.adobe.com/community/download_install_setup

    When I open iTunes it will automatically go to full screen mode. I can't work out how to turn this off. Only iTunes opens to full screen mode.

    Go to System Preferences (under the Apple logo in the menu bar).  Choose "General".  Click "Always close windows when quitting an application".
    That should fix it.

  • Safari will not open in full screen mode

    After installing the 3-1-14 update from the Apps Store, Safari will not open in full screen mode when I click the double arrow in the upper right corner of the screen. If I try the View>Enter Full Screen it still will not open full screen. Prior to this update, everything was fine. I know the info on the update says it deals with iTunes and iBooks, but after installing it my problems began.
    I am running the Mavericks (all updates installed) on an Mac mini (late 2013 edition), 16GB RAM.
    Any suggestions?

    Please disregard my question. The issue disappeared after a cold boot. Thanks.

    Mountain Lion is set up to close windows when you quit a program instead of saving them. To change this, put Safari in full-screen mode, move the cursor to the top, open Safari menu while holding Option key and close Safari from the menu.
    If you want to do it automatically with all programmes, open System Preferences > General, and deactivate "Close windows when quitting an application"

  • Since updating a day ago, Firefox will not open on full screen on Windows 7

    Accessing from taskbar on Windows 7 shows its open but will not open on full screen. And its also affected my Quicken program, doing the same thing. I uninstalled and reinstalled, still same problems. Did the updates affect my computer? And adobe was updated at the same time. I spent two hours w/ Quicken support, problem still exists. The only change that was made to the computer was the Mozilla update.

    Right-click on the shortcut used to open Firefox and select Properties. If you get a Windows Jump list when you right click, right-click on the Firefox entry in the jump list and select properties.
    In the Shortcut tab of the properties dialog box, set the Run option to Maximized, then click OK to save the settings.
    You can do this for any program.

  • How can I get my safari screen to open in full screen mode

    My Safari screen open with a small window, can I set it to open in full screen every time I click on Safari

    You need to enable the program to resume what it was doing. so go to:
    System Preferences > General > Uncheck "Close windows when quitting an application".
    then go to safari, size the window how you want it, in your case put it in full screen, and then quit the program. when you open up safari again it should be in full screen view.
    Hope that helps!

  • "Save As" Dialog Box Opens As Full Screen. How to Disable?

    At some point my "Save As" dialog box began to open as full screen. Don't know why. There is no way that I can find to get it out of full screen mode. I've looked at the preferences and can't find any obvious control for this behavior. It's not a big deal, but it's very annoying. I've not been able to find anywhere else that this question has been asked.
    I tried "Save As Other" and it behaves the same way.
    The document itself is not opened full screen.
    I'm using Windows 7. Currently I'm running Adobe Reader XI, but the behavior started before that. I think I may have accidentally typed in some combination of keys (or dropped something on the keyboard) that set some kind of option somewhere.
    Thanks for any help.

    Wouldn't you know it. By entering this question a similar question finally showed up. The answer is to right-click in the top of the window and select "Restore." Problem solved.

  • Why won't large images open in full screen on first click?

    I go to open an image (jpg, png) that has a byte size of 2000 x 3096. What ends up happening, is that it will initially open a full screen window, and after a second or so, that full screen window will shrink to a half screen window. Now I'm required to click the max window size button in the upper right corner to expand the window to full size, right click on the image, select View Image from the drop down menu, and then finally click in the image to get it to display in its full size.
    Is there a plug-in, or a config. parameter that I can use, so that the image opens up in full screen mode from the start?

    Is this with opening an image link from a web page or with viewing images that you already have stored on the computer?
