Screen keeps enlarging. why?

Why and how does my new imac screen keep enlarging?? How can I get it back to proper size?

What version of OS X is your system running. I suspect that the Zoom feature has been turned on in error. Open System Preferences - Universal Access - Seeing tab and set Zoom to off. There are also other methods, each are explained in:

IPad screen keeps enlarging since iOS upgrade, no way to control it

Since upgrade to ios 5.1, iPad 1 screen size keeps enlarging by around 5 to 10 percent, so that most of screen is hidden from view/ inaccessible, no apparent way to control it.to reset, I have to turn iPad off and on again. For example, as I type this, only top 2 mm of space bar is accessible making typing a royal pain. Any suggestions for how to control it?

Triple tap your home button and your screen should return to normal size.

My i phone 4 screen keeps enlarging for no reason

My i phone screen goes into an enlarged screen format, making it very difficult to use, and then may change back to normal after a day or so, I have rebooted it lots of times without success. Sometimes it rights itself for a minute or so then back to MASSIVE! Don't want to reset if I can help it....

Try double tapping the screen with three fingers the next time it happens. If you want to turn off the zoom feature you can go into your settings>general>accessibility then click the zoom off.

Why does my ipod screen keep flashing?

i have an ipod touch 4th generation and whenever i open an application up the screen keeps flashing white.
why is it doing this? and how do i fix it?

If you restored to factory settings/new iPod via iTunes (Not via Settings>General>Reset>Erase all Content and Setting) and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem.
Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store..

Try to reset - Press both the home and on/off buttons for at least 10 seconds until the Apple logo reappears.

Why does my screen keep dimming and brightening?

I'm just sitting here in front of my fire during a mid-March snow storm in Maine, and my screen keeps dimming and then brightening. It's getting quite annoying. What is going on?

OK, I figured it out - it's the auto brightness adjustment. Found the answer in the pane to the right of my comment.

Why does my Ipad screen keep freezing even after rebooting

My ipad screen keeps freezing and remains stuck. So in the last hour this has happened 3 times after hard "reboots". Can someone explain whats going on? Uwas not downloading anything ..only looking at Facebook.

Hello, Nina1711.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
Try closing all open applications in multitasking and power cycling the device. Test the responsiveness of the iPad after processing these steps. If the issue persists, check to make sure you have space available on the iPad in Settings/General/About. If there is no space available you may want to remove unwanted Apps or media as this can cause the unit to become unresponsive. If these steps have been processed with the issue persisting, you will need to restore the device. Make sure to backup the device prior to restoring.

Why does Black screen keep popping up

black screen keeps pooping up for no reason

It's been happening to me as well lately on build 10041 just before I upgraded to build 10049. On build 10041, it would usually happen to me when I was browsing the internet. The screen would go black once or twice and then recover. The
bad thing about this is my mouse would start stuttering to the point of being almost unusable accompanied with a beeping sort of sound coming from my audio speakers. Restarting the computer was about the only way I could clear the problem. I've seen other
postings about this elsewhere and the best that can be done right now is to report it as a bug using your feedback app. I have not seen the problem in build 10049 yet.

Wht does my computer screen keeps going dark?

Why does my computer screen keep going dark?

Good. This means that, in your existing account, a setting is bad or .plist file is corrupt. As identifying the rascal may take time, my suggestion is to move data to the new account, must be with administrative privileges. As the contents of each account is unavailable to the other, there are two methods:
- if you have a backup on an external disk, as you should (if not, consider this seriously, do not count on good behavior of hard disks), make a last backup on the existing account, and restore in the other account; when ready, delete the old (buggy) account
- if not, save your settings unto a flash drive; this is a limited backup just to avoid putting back settings for Mail etc. I am satisfied with iBackup (grapefruit.ch), but there are other backup utilitites, Time Machine, for example; TM does not allow limited backup, it works if you have a large external disk. If backup disk is not available, move files to shared folder, which is visibile from both accounts, and from there to the new account.
May seem difficult, in fact it is not. You must just move data from one account to another. Now, take care to new apps you install or new functions you activate. When you notice something strange, that may be the cause of this behavior.

Iphone 4 screen keeps rotating when closing apps

It only started a few days ago but it's starting to get on my nerves. My iPhone 4 screen keeps rotating when I go to close an app, and it rotates back when I go back to the home screen.
I don't know why it's doing it, but was wondering if anyone did know. And if so how to fix it?
Thanks a bunch!

It's fixed nevermind..

Already signed in on ebay; then I go to either revise my item or sell and item, ebay will ask you to sign in again; using Firefox, the same screen keeps coming up, asking me to sign in. I then have to use IE . Deleting history does not help.

# Yes, if you go to accounts.firefox.org, sign out, you will now be signed out.
# Sign back in, and you will be asked to save the password you entered.
# This will save the password and autocomplete if you have this option turned on.
I am not exactly sure why the menu did not detect the password change or if it was stored incorrectly after you changed it? But after storing the correct password you can manage any duplicate passwords in the password manager.[[Password manager - Remember, delete and change saved passwords in Firefox]]

Battery screen keeps popping up

In my TX when I turn it on and try to work with it the battery screen popps up and I cannot get rid of it. the unit is fully charged and it states that. It causes the touch screen part to seem miss aligned, but if I can get the screen to go away, the touch screen sync works fine. Why does this battery screen keep popping up.

Hello and thank you for using the Palm Help Forums!
You may want to clean the touchscreen. It could be click the item on its own if there is some dust or dirt on it. Also, clean the outside of the touchscreen with a business card. If you notice this problem still occurs after cleaning the touchscrenn try a hard reset. This will erase all data on the device and restore settings to default. Be sure to back up your information by syncing it to a computer. For further information and instructions on hard resets, please visit kb.palm.com and look up article number 42094 in the Solution I.D. search field.
I hope this helps and let me know if you have any further issues.

My screen keeps dimming automatically

My brand new Macbook Pro's screen keeps dimming the screen all the time regardless of which setting is it on. Its the first time it does that today and it's so annoying!!!! I have the following options: Put the hard disks to sleep when possible, slightly dim the display when using this power source, automatically reduce brightness before display goes to sleep and restart automatically if the computer freezes.... The only thing that is check marked is Put the hard disks to sleep when possible and automatically reduce brightness before display goes to sleep... Any advice? I googled a bunch of stuff but I don't have the options they give to help my problem such as un check the automatically adjust display or what not...
Thanks

I dont have that option available....
You have to go to System Preferences > Displays (not Energy Saver where you were).
If you really don't have it, and you have an external display attached, that's the reason why. If that's the case, let me know, and I'll give you directions to do it.

TS4088 Screen keeps blacking out Macbook pro 13'

Just got this little macbook this week and the screen keeps shutting down after a while (not sure how long exactly but usually around 30mins). I changed the settings to make sure it doesn't sleep ever yet after 30mins or so screen goes black and i have to close the screen and open it again and type my password and stuff. Anyone know why this is happening? I heard of this happening to other people with the macbook pro 15 but mine is the 13 and same thing seems to be happening.

Have you tried resetting the SMU?
