Regarding display resolution options on the latest model

I just purchased the the latest model. I've been using Mac for a few years and in each version there has been a "streched" option available for some of the resolutions. I've got too used to that. Right now it's set on 1024 * 640. Is there any way to get the "streched" option to show up?
Thanks in advance for your help.

  • 24" Imac only showing 2 display resolution options

    Within the past week something changed after running a Mac software update that resulted in only having 2 display resolution options. The display choices now are limited to 1900 X 1200 and 960 X 600.  I think this happened after having a Mac software update.  I don't know what the updates were other then they were suggested as part of the automatic software updates check.
    Running OS X Lion version 10.7.4. 
    Graphics =  NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GT 128 MB.
    I have rebooted and checked for additional updates put still only seeing 2 choices.
    Is anyone else having this problem or ideas why all the other resolution options disappeared?
    Thanks

    Thanks for quick response. I looked as suggested but those listed are older issues and not recent new events.  I guess I will sit back and see if there is a new update coming that fixes issue.  Really madding not being able to re-set resolution to one that I have been using for years. 
    If anyone else knows background/input on why resolution options would go from at least if not more then 10 to now only having 2 would be great.
    Thanks again.

  • How to find the size and resolution option in the aspect ratio drop down menu for the crop tool

    while looking through certain tutorials on the new crop system i came across many that referenced the above mentioned size and resolution option in the  access ratio drop down menu.  They all mention a dialog box which then appears which looks really useful, however my version doesnt have this option. any help would be appreciated.

    John, are there already differences?  I thought 13.1 was mainly about retina display support, but I guess there would also be other fixes released while they were at it.
    Yes, definitely already differences. I sympathize with Photoshop instructors (online and offline).
    The headline change was Retina support but that was also made available to non-Cloud versions.
    Other Cloud-only changes in 13.1 are listed here

  • Other display resolution options

    I've just bought a 19" widescreen display to go with a (planned) new mini. In the meantime I've hooked it up to my G4 iBook.
    Question is: is there any way of working around the standard resolution options in the Display Preferences. 1024x768 gives me a stretched image on the external screen. If there's no way of setting other options (the screen has a max of 1400x900), is it at least possible to make it 'lose' a bit of screen space at the sides and use a little less territory, but in the right proportions?
    I know this is not the forum, but does anyone happen to know whether I'm likely to have the same problem with a new Mini (I'm assuming it has a much more flexible driver).

    I'm sorry to anyone who has fumed about the stupidity of my previous question.
    I've found an option within the monitor set up - 'expand to fill full screen' - which was switched on. When switched off, everything appears with normal proportions.
    Hopefully the information will still be of use to other visitors.

    I'm not sure how all of this works but I read a few of yur comments and figured you'd be the person to ask! I have an iPod touch as well as my iPhone 4. I'm trying to find an otter box for the touch because I truly love it on my ip4, not to mention ive given the touch to my 6 year old and NEED the protection. Anyway, I'm not positive which generation it is and don't want to order the wrong one. The model # is A 1367.
    Any help?? Please!!!!

  • I can't find the scroll option on the latest version upgrade in Adobe Reader.

    I can't find the scroll option on the latest version upgrade in Adobe Reader.  Can someone please help me find it or activate it?  I have the latest version X1 version 11.0.2.  Thank you

    I have never seen that (scroll bar disappearing); it should always be there if a document length exceeds the current view.
    What is your operating system?  Are these local or online documents?  If online, in what browser?
    P.S. this is how my Reader 11.0.2 on Windows 7 looks when I open any PDF document

    Sounds like you bought an AT&T no contract phone. You will need to contact AT&T for unlocking but they are only doing so for current and previous account holders. If you have never had service with them they will not unlock your phone.

    Contact the original cellular provider, as they are the only ones that can provide unlocking.

  • Get a Samsung HDTV and ATV or wait for the latest model?

    A newbie to HDTV, video and ATV.
    I have almost decided to buy the Samsung 50" plasma HDTV PN50A650. But have discovered that Samsung has a new model PN50A760 with added capabilities for playing video and wireless networking.
    Connectivity is an issue to me. Spending all the green on a HDTV, I do not want it to be obsolete in 4 years. What if I get a digital camcorder? Or Apple introduces a flat-rate movie-rental scheme? My options:
    OPTION A) Wait a few months until the $500 premium for the new model drops.
    Some excerpts for reviews of the latest 760 model:
    "The 7 series can playback video content stored on a USB device while the 6 series are limited to images and audio."
    (Naively, I thought that all HDTVs should be able to play back video.)
    "The 7 Series can stream audio, video and pictures over your home network."
    "The TV recognizes not only MP3 and JPEG files but also XviD and MPEG4 files to enjoy video playback."
    "The TV can also reach out to your home network and play back photos, videos and music stored on networked computers. You'll need to install special software, included with the TV, onto your PC." This could be some very basic software. Suitable for Macs?
    "While this feature seems pretty cool, it's not as good as similar functionality built into a PS3 or an Xbox 360, let alone that of a dedicated network media streamer like Apple TV. Despite being billed as DLNA-compliant, the TV won't play nice with DLNA server software like Windows Media Player 11 or TVersity, so you're stuck with the included proprietary software. Samsung's software is basic..." (Compatibility with Macs?)
    OPTION B) Buy the older model and then, add ATV. The total cost will be less and I think, the video playback (through my iMac?) and networking capabilities (2Wire Wi-Fi) will be much better. But I see there have been problems between ATV and Samsung HDTV.
    Isn't the combo with ATV a much more capable and flexible (and cheaper) long-term solution? Which Samsung is unlikely to match?
    Thanks for your valuable advice! (Urgent for the X-Mas season!)

    Winston, I think you're missing my points:
    1) If you're interested in a device for watching HD video, then you can compare the AppleTV and Blu-Ray. You then have to look at what other features they provide, or don't provide as the case may be, and decide. I was just giving my opinion on an alternative.
    2) There was no detailed information given as to what the streaming capabilities were and so I was giving my opinion again.
    To say that there is little difference quality wise between current HD broadcasts (even if some are 1440x1080i) and the maximum output of the AppleTV at 1280x720 shows a total lack of experience on your part of watching HD broadcasts on a TV capable of 1920x1080, or a lack of appreciation of the better detail contained in the picture. It's like comparing AppleTV HD at 1280x720 with DVD PAL native resolution of 720x576 and saying there is little difference quality wise. But then if you look at the US market where 30fps is standard, the AppleTV cannot support resolutions higher than 960x540, and then you really are lowering the benefits of the AppleTV over DVD quality, and the difference between the AppleTV and HD broadcasts is even bigger.
    I have compared video from HD broadcast at 1920x1080 with the same video converted down to 1280x720 on the AppleTV, and the loss of detail is noticeable, especially when watching on a 40" TV, not an uncommon size these days with them being used with games consoles. Before you comment, no it is nothing to do with how I convert them, there is just physically far fewer pixels available. I much prefer watching 1920x1080 through my Media PC than watching 1280x720 through my AppleTV.
    Also, as we all know it happens, there is software available freely on the internet - no names will be mentioned - that allow the convertion of movies from DVD to a PC, and likewise from HD-DVD and Blu-Ray to a PC. So reality is that it's available now and with the cost of 1TB and 1.5TB HDDs so cheap, the potential for a 1920x1080 resolution video collection for playing on a 1920x1080 TV is already there. Saying it's not going to happen 'any time soon' is rediculous as it's already happening, albeit quietly, especially as talk of how to do such things is not allowed on this forum.
    You keep using this phrase 'any time soon' without quantifying it. You use words like 'unlikely'. We live in a fast changing world. The world of televisions has changed dramatically in the last two years, whereby nearly all mid-priced TVs (both plasma and lcd) from about £800 GBP upwards now support native 1920x1080. Two years ago I paid over £1500 GBP for a 37" plasma supporting native 1024x720. You can now buy Sony OLED 11" TVs, which a couple of years ago were just being shown off as prototypes. In my opinion, OLED will blow away lcd and plasma tv sales within 5 years, and in my timescale, that is any time soon.
    12 months ago I bought a blu-ray player for a PC, whilst people around me were going for hd-dvd. The format wars was predicted as not going to end 'any time soon' and no one could have forseen that within 6 months the whole blu-ray / hd-dvd argument would be over.
    For your information, ABC in the US have been broadcasting in HD for over 10 years.
    But as I keep saying Winston, these are my opinions. You're allowed yours and I'm allowed mine.

  • Only one display resolution option for monitor

    I just installed a new SSD in my computer, and then installed SL onto the drive. I have an Asus monitor, and Display Preferences on the SL install on the older HD gave me a variety of screen resolutions to choose from. But on the SSD install I only have one option (1280x800). What do I need to do to get a wider range of resolution options (including one that will look right with this monitor)? Thanks.

    Which computer? What did you use to install Snow Leopard, a retail version or the disks from another machine?

  • Lost display resolution options when installing 10.4.6 with 20" monitor

    I recently installed an upgrade using black retail DVD 10.4.6 from 10.2.8, and now i only have one option for display resolution (256 colors). The screen is gray??? I can restart using 9.2 Classic and the screen display is just fine (thousands & millions of colors). I did the disk utility and permission fix prior to and before installation. I also updated the firmware. I tried to download 10.4.8 combo update, but the license agreement can't be 'agreed to' because the button will not appear on the low resolution screen. Do i have to initialize the whole disk? The Monitor is a 20" Display (the large blue monster). Since it was working with 10.2.8 and still works under 9.2 Classic reboot, i doubt whether its a hardware problem.. Any ideas?

    I wonder if it could be the Voodoo5 Dfx video card that's bn not compatible with 10.4.8?? It workds with 10.2.

  • Display too dim for the latest MBP 13" retina

    Bought the latest mbp 13" retina yesterday and I found the display is too dim even I change the brightness to the brightest,
    it's more obvious when I compare it with my late 2010 mba as it looks more bright on the mba even its not on full brightness,
    any other way that I could tune for a more brighter display for my mbp?
    Cheers.
