  • Display doesn't fill screen (Black square around)

    Hi, thanks for reading.
    Y restarted my computer and noted that there is a black space between the border of the display and the screen. Is the same problem in this post: http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=7175451
    I already try to restart the PRAM and the NVRAM, change the resolution and disable the universal access.
    Even when i boot the gray screen (with the apple) doesn't fill the screen.
    Can anyone help me please?

    Try the following; in /Library/Preferences find the file com.apple.windowserver.plist and throw it in the trash. Find also in /Users/yourusername/Library/Preferences/ByHost the file com.apple.windowserver.xxxxxxxx.plist where xxxxxxx is a string of letters and numbers and yourusername is the name on the main user account and throw that in the trash, too. Then restart and see if the wide screen function returns.

  • White boot screen doesn't fill screen

    I'm not sure when this started happening, and it's not too big a deal, but now, when my unibody 17" MBP boots, the white boot screen looks like a 4:3, low-res image with black bands on the sides. Basically, it doesn't fill the screen like it used to.
    I have plugged it into a projector using the Mini Display Port to VGA adapter. Might that have something to do with it? Is there any way to fix it?

    Try resetting the computer's PRAM, by rebooting and holdiing down the options-command-P-R keys all at once. Let the computer reset and chime a couple of times, and then release the keys and allow it to boot normally.

  • HT204291 Mirroring Doesn't fill screen

    When mirroring, my ipad2 display only fills  up about  half of the screen.  When looking at the "apple tv" screen,  the whole screen is filled.  Is this a settings issue somewhere on my Ipad or maybe on my LCD projector??

    Thanks for your quick response!!   Is there any way to change the 4:3 ratio on my ipad?    I'm messing around with presenting stuff to my chemistry classes using the Ipad and by not using the whole screen, some of the stuff is tough to read for kids farther away.      If I had a newer LCD projector (mine is 8 yrs old), would I be able to set that projector to a 4:3 ratio (probably not a fair question).  Anyhow,  just want to maximize my projected screen size, so any other advice you have would be greatly appreciated!!

  • I just bought a Samsung S22B310B computer monitor and hooked up to my Mac Mini. I have my mac set to the 1920X1080 resolution but the entire screen (21.5") is not filled. It looks like non HD channels do on an HD TV. Used regular hook up not DVI.

    Just bought Samsung S22B310B computer monitor and hooked it up to my mac mini. I have my mac set to the 1920X1080 resolution but the entire screen (21.5") is not filled. How do fill the screen? it fills the screen on other resolution settings. I have it hooked up regularly and not to the DVI hook up. I'm not a computer savvy person please help!

    That monitor supports both (digital) DVI and (analog) VGA connections, so you should not need a converter or use a different adapter.
    You should use the Apple Supplied HDMI to DVI Adapter and a (digital) DVI cable to the monitor.

  • HT201335 Hi.  I have an apple tv and am able to mirror the image on my ipad to my tv, however it doesn't fill the full screen.  Is there a way to get a full image on my 32" Tv.  Thanks a lot for your help

    HI.I have an apple TV and am able to mirror the image on my ipad onto the screen.  However, it doesn't fill the full 32" screen.  Is there some way to project a bigger image onto the Tv.  Thanks for your help

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Mirroring won't fill the TV screen. The iPad has an aspect ratio of 4:3 and the iPhone 4S or prior an aspect ratio of 3:2, neither of these will fit exactly into a TV screen which as an aspect ratio of 16:9. The Apple TV will not zoom the mirrored image, because it may well cut off information which is situated at the top or bottom of the screen.
    You may wish to try each of the settings in ‘Settings > Audio & Video > Adjust for AirPlay overscan’ for the best setting that suits you.

  • Connecting Macbook to Sony Bravia 32" - Won't fill screen and not clear

    I just picked up a Mini-DVI > DVI and DVI > HDMI cord today from my local Apple Store and hooked up my Macbook to my new Sony Bravia 32" HDTV. Unfortunately, I having some problems setting it up. My issues are:
    - I'm not sure how to make my TV the MAIN and ONLY display. I'd like to play games like WoW and watch movies from iTunes on it with the best possible quality and resolution.
    - When connected, the image doesn't fill the whole TV perfectly. It either gets cut off or has black borders. Using the TV's zoom fuction just distorts the image further and possibly cuts off the edges.
    - The quality is less than what I was hoping for. Text is hard to read and pixilated and images just don't look that great. I suspect this might be because it's not filling the whole screen but I am unsure.
    I'd really appreciate detailed instructions on how to deal with the software side of this since my connection is fine.

    Here is a link that should answer your second question about making the TV the sole display:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=86286
    As for the screen quality issue, does your TV's manual mention anything about making a computer connection? Does it say to use the VGA port or is HDMI supported for computer use? Also, do you know the TV's native resolution? If it is a 1366 x 768 native panel in the TV, then don't run it at 1920 x 1080 interlaced. That's too high. It will look best if run at it's natvie resolution.
    As for the picture being either too big or too small, that is called overscan. Many newer Sony's have a setting called "Full" under the Wide Mode setting that gets rid of overscan.

  • Creating support message field reported by doesn't fill

    Hi colleagues,
    When I create a support message field reported by doesn't fill automatically.
    I think that I've completed all required steps in order these fields were filled automatically. Fields sold-to party and support team are filled automatically, they work ok.
    The steps that I've checked:
    - The support message is created successfully from satellite message(SID=DES_01). The user which creates this message is zprueba5 exists with profiles: SAP_ALL, SAP_NEW at the satellite system.
    -In the solution manager system(SID=SMG), transaction ib52 for the satellite system is filled with partners: employee responsible, sold-to party and system administrator.
    - In the solution manager system(SID=SMG), zprueba5 exists with profiles: SAP_ALL, SAP_NEW.
    - Transaction bp, zprueba5 user contains BP roles: Business Partner, Employee, Bill-To Party, Financial Services and at the tab "Identification":
    External BP Number: SMG 010 ZPRUEBA5
    ID Type     Description                         Identification number
    CRM001    External System Identifier   DES_01 0020281686 100 ZPRUEBA5
    CRM001    External System Identifier   SMG 0020276689 010 ZPRUEBA5
    So, In the solution manager system(SID=SMG), crm_dno_monitor transaction when I open the support message just created from satellite system, I have an error because reported by field isn't filled.
    Please could you help me?
    Thanks and Regards

    Hi Nikhil,
    At this message I'm going to reply your last two replies.
    1.- You typed me "In ib52 select both the system simultaneously and then go to->parner and assign proper bp no for the respective partner function. You need to do it for every system may be users are same.
    I hope you have maintained proper access sequence i.e. via ibase."
    For each SAP System that I've defined at SAP Solution Manager, at ib52 transaction I've defined the three roles that IMG activity documentation types:
            Assign business partners with the following functions to the new iBase component systems:
                Administrator
                Key User
                Sold-to Party
    SAP Solution Manager Implementation Guide->SAP Solution Manager(SP 17)->Configuration->Basic Settings->Standard Configuration of Basic Settings->Solution Manager->iBase->Assign Business Partners to iBase Components ->transaction Change iBase (IB52), enter in field Installed Base '1' and I select the SAP System->Goto -> Partner
          Function                                        Partner      
        00000014  Employee Responsible     298
        00000001  Sold-To Party                  295
        SLFN0001 System Administrator      295
    2.- You typed me  "Select you partner determination procedure and double click on "User interface setting" here select appropriate partner functions and assign all of them in ibase as I said in above reply.
    You must not be getting reported by partner function. Take out System administrator. Motivate by assigning points."
    My Partner Determ. Proc. is SLFN0001, so I double click on User interface setting like you explained me, adn now appears:
    Header Screen:
    Sequence and Functions for (main) Partner Displayed
    Partner Function1 00000001  Sold-To Party (CRM)
    Partner Function2 SLFN0002 Reported by (CRM)
    Partner Function3 SLFN0003 Support Team (CRM)
    Partner Function4 SLFN0004 Message Processor (CRM)
    But now I don't understand if at ib52 transaction I've to add any role or if from "User interface setting" I've to delete any Partner Function. Could you detail me when you type "You must not be getting reported by partner function. Take out System administrator", please?
    Regards,
    Raul .

  • UIWebView Content not filling screen in landscape

    Hello everybody.
    I'm working on a simple iPhone app that will host a specific web page in a UIWebView. I found that once I open the app, zoom out (to get the bouncy effect that puts the content back to fill the screen), and then rotate the phone my UIWebView's content doesn't fill the screen. I have tried to scroll and noticed that the UIWebView does fill the screen, but the webpage is only taking up part of the UIWebView. The webpage is a smaller version and positioned to the upper left hand corner of the screen. If I double click to zoom, the web page then fills the screen as expected
    Here's a screenshot of what I'm seeing
    http://img25.imageshack.us/i/screenshot20110216at321.png/
    I have scalePagesToFit set and I have tried using javascript to zoom (which only zooms the text, not the actual content element in the UIWebView). I have been searching for days and finding nothing that will fix this issue. Can anybody here help me out in some way?
    Thanks for reading!

    And therein lies the rub. I remember those controls. But they don't appear in my 3.1 update. I can see my choice of screen mode being reset by a software update, but I can't put it back like I had it.
    I'll try resetting and see if it brings the screen zoom control back.
    Thanks anyway for at least confirming they should still be there.

  • Wallpaper doesn't fill second monitor

    Hi everyone.
    This is kind of a minor issue but there is a user asking about it and I don't have an answer.
    It's a Windows 7 laptop connected to an external monitor with the laptop display set as the primary. On the external monitor, the background doesn't fill the screen, there's a big black border around it. I played around with the
    different settings and nothing seems to work.
    If it's on the external monitor only the wallpaper looks fine, it's only when both displays are up that there's an issue. I'm told that she didn't have this problem on her Windows xp machine.
    Is there a fix for this?
    Thanks.
    Chris Hansen

    Hi,
    Please try to reverse your settings, that is, set the external monitor as primary, although the image may end up cropped on your laptop monitor.
    Thanks!

  • How to open images in Fill Screen mode from Camera Raw

    I am using Photoshop CS4 for Windows. I created an action that executes Fit on Screen and set the Scripts Event Manager to execute that action on the Open Document event. This works when opening a document from Photoshop.
    Here are my questions:
    1) After opening a raw image from Bridge in Camera Raw, when I then open the image in Photoshop, it does not run the Open Document event action to Fit on Screen. What event do I need to set the action to execute on when opening an image from Camera Raw in Photoshop?
    2) I added Fit on Screen to the action by selecting Insert Menu Item from the Actions menu and then selecting View-Fit on Screen. I cannot find Fill Screen on any pull-down menu (the button found on the Hand tool bar). How can I insert the Fill Screen item (which fills the screen a little more than Fit on Screen?
    3) In the Scripts Events Manager, when you select Add an Event, it says Any scriptable event can be entered here. See the Scripting Reference for the full list of Photoshop event names.. On the following Adobe webpage, I found the Adobe Photoshop CS4 Scripting Guide but I did not find a list of Photoshop event names in that document. Where can I find the list of Photoshop event names?
