Resizing screen and icons

After downloading Google Chrome, screen shrank and icons blew up in size... How do i resize... tried various combinations clicking on display in SystemPref but that did not work.... thanks, ehzee

Welcome to the Forums!
It would be helpful if you could give us a little more detail about what things look like.
The easiest way would be to take a screenshot by pressing shift-command-4 and then and then click-dragging a box around your screen.
This will take a picture of your screen and save it to your desktop.
Post that picture, and we will be able to see exactly what is happening.
When you say that the icons "blew up in size" do you mean like icons on your desktop or in a Finder window?
If so, press command-j and move the Icon Size slider.
In the Displays pane of System Preferences, make sure that you have selected the last item on the Resolutions: list.
Please post the screenshot and give us more details about what you are seeing.

  • Problem with my iphone 4s. screen and icons shaking. ios 5.1. please help thanks apple.

    good day apple. can you help me with my iphone 4s 5.1. SCREEN AND ICONS ARE SHAKING. what am going to do. thanks

    okay. I tried the airplane mode and do not disturb on and off thing, resetting the network settings and all settings, restoring the iPhone using iTunes, draining phone using flashlight, reheating the phone using hair dryer and freezing the phone.. the freezing makes my wifi work again but it only last a couple of hours and I didn't want to try it anymore because I'm afraid it may cause another problem to my phone if I keep doing that.

  • Shaking screen and icons on iPhone 5s 8.1.1. iOS

    Hi,
    I bought second hand iPhone 5s two days before and today I have an issue... After I made iOS update to 8.1.1., screen and icons of my iPhone started to shake. I tried to reset it, but it doesn't work - even the Apple logo after turning on is shaking like crazy.
    It might be related with App store too - it started, when I downloaded lot of different apps at the same time.
    Have some ideas how to solve it? Thanks!

    OK. Though you meant it was in edit/delete mode for the home screen icons. Now it makes sense.
    Make an appointment at the genius bar. This is a hardware problem.
    Or just get your money back.

  • On starting my iMac up all screens and icons are large

    Hello all, when starting up m imac all icons including the log on screen are large and when I click onto safari the whole screen appears big, yet when my wife clicks onto her screen sign and her icons appear they are all correct, please help, am a complete duffer at computer jargon so please bear with me :-)

    I think i had better explain this a bit better, hopefully, when I'm using Apple TV i.e using my films on my imac and transferring them through to my TV the iMac screen goes into large mode for want of a better word and will not go into the correct size when ive finished using Apple TV, my troubles all started when I downloaded a film onto my imac and it's gone bottom up since then.
    regards

  • Weird parts of screen and icons turning black with white bands?

    So I've been getting these weird flashes on my screen, mostly when using the internet, but also sometimes icons appear similar to the flashes as pictured below... it should be the calculator app icon but instead it's black with white streaks.
    Or here's the link for a better view:
    http://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/4ldthLn49zAmGLhSypdgog?feat=directlink
    I see it mostly when loading a page on the internet... for a split second the whole frame turns black with white horizontal streaks. I tried to get a screen capture of it but it happens too fast. The whole monitor doesn't turn black, just the window I'm using.
    I did a little research and think it might be screen artifacts and maybe my graphics card is going bad... but can someone confirm or deny this? Does it sound like something else? It seems to be getting worse... so I want to get it taken care of.
    Any help would be great.
    Here's my graphics card info... *i think*
    GeForce FX 5200:
    Chipset Model: GeForce FX 5200
    Type: Display
    Bus: AGP
    Slot: SLOT-1
    VRAM (Total): 64 MB
    Vendor: NVIDIA (0x10de)
    Device ID: 0x0321
    Revision ID: 0x00a2
    ROM Revision: 2060

    Boot off your original G5 Install Disk while holding down Option/alt key to select AHT, then run the extended Apple Hardware Test.
    It sounds like the Video card, but you might also Get Temperature Monitor - 4.51 to see if it's heat related...

    If you have any temps in the 70°C/160°F range, that's likely it.

    I changed the display to thousand or millions of colors and it changes back to blueish color for one second but then immeidatley goes back to silverish/gray.. Everything turns that color. Destop, icons, etc. If I logout to another username I have the correct screen up (the traditional blueish color). please help!! what setting must I change back to, to make it stay in the traditional blue screen.. I can't edit photos in that silver/negative looking color screen!! I just installed the Tiger.

    Open the Universal Access and Displays panes of System Preferences and check all the settings inside.

  • The sync icon is constantly on-screen and battery is draining really quickly.

    The sync icon is constantly on-screen and my battery is draining really quickly. I can stop it by re-starting the iPhone, but is this a known problem? The sync and iCloud seem to be working properly, but I can see the battery drop by about 1% every minute.
    Sync is taking place over wireless, but even if I sync using the cable, the icon remains on-screen even when iTunes tells me that the sync is complete.

    Yes, iOS4, latest and a 3GS.
    So, with the home button double-tap, those two apps aren't showing in the recents list?
    Nope, not showing: http://d.pr/CQnR

    Did you reset like this?... press the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.
    Did that as well, still the problem remains.
    I don't know if I should really bother but I just find it weird and I think it has a slight impact on the battery time.

    I just tried the link and it is just fine. If the GateKeeper pops up then open Security & Privacy preferences, click on the General tab, set the last radio button to Anywhere.

  • I have an iPad 2 and the volume icon is in the middle of my screen and when i try to turn the volume down it just goes back up again and it  makes it impossible for me to play games

    i have an iPad 2 and the volume icon is in the middle of my screen and when i try to turn the volume down it just goes back up again and it  makes it impossible for me to play games or do anything

    Have you tried giving it a reset? Hold down the sleep and home keys for about 20 seconds. When you see the silver apple let go and let it reboot and see if htat helps.

    Hey there byambar,

  • I have Photoshop CS5, and use windows XP.  I cannot open Bridge from photoshop, whichI have done for years. When I am in Photoshop,when it opens, I always click on the bridge icon at the bottom of the screen, and it puts me into bridge. This is not happen

    I have Photoshop CS5, and use windows XP. I cannot open bridge from photoshop, which I have done for years.  When I am in Photoshop, when it opens, I always click on the bridge icon at the bottom of the screen and it puts me into bridge. This is not happening, the small wheel at the bottom of the screen just keeps spinning. Its like its stuck or caught in a loop. I can't get into bridge. I tried shutting down and starting up again but  the problem remains. Looking for help.  Dan

    Thanks for your response, I was able to open bridge from File-Browse in Bridge.  This worked, but was not able to go back to the way I always opened Bridge.  At least I could get to Bridge and go into Camera Raw. I never tried to open Bridge from the Start menu.  The odd thing about this is, it has happened before, and to get it "unstuck" and working again, I would shut down and restart again in a few minutes, and things would go back to normal.  This time it did not go back to normal after several attempts.  I shut down for about 3-4 hours, restarted, and it seems to be back to normal again. I am not sure if it's a problem that is getting worse each time it happens.       And yes I am using Mini Bridge in photoshop CS5.  Thank you for your help.  Dan

  • How do you adjust the font size for the tabs and icons around the screen?

    How do  you adjust the font size of tabs and and icons to ake them larger?

    sfcalling
    Click on the text in the menu so that you see the bounding box around it. Look to the right of the Movie Menu customization workspace, Adjustments Palette, Text and edit your text font style and size.
    In this screenshot, "Glass Flowers" text in the main menu is selected and its Adjustments Palette Text editing opportunities are shown. To do comparable editing in the scene menu, click on the scene menu in the bin to bring its image up to the screen.
    Please let us know if you are OK with the details.
    Please also review the following Adobe document on disc menus which applies to both version 11 and 12.

    By the way, what computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 12 running on?

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost      
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                               
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.                       
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.
