Screen size in windows 8.1 - all icons too small! How do I enlarge the entire captivate 8 screen?

The entire Captivate 8 screen to too small. How do I enlarge the entire window? All icons and thumbnails are 1/4 the size they should be. Using Windows 8.1.

It looks like it is an issue between Adobe and Microsoft. (Many Adobe programs are responding this way to Windows 8 and 8.1)
I am posting this to try and get some (ANY) ideas/feedback...but to also bring it to the Captivate Community attention. I hope the Captivate Staff is aware of this issue.
Same issue -great PhotoShop screenshot Photoshop too small on windows 8.1
Photoshop CC / Windows 8.1 HiDPI / Retina scaling support
Re: Adobe suite HiDPI on Windows 8.1
Right side menu too small font size of letters in Windows 8.1 High DPI screen
Re: Photoshop CC / Windows 8.1 HiDPI / Retina scaling support
there are many many more out there......
I tried this first, it comes with Windows and changes your display properties by application: (but it didn't work)
The program above basicly edits these settings (you can get to these by right clicking on the exe application) I tried many combos, an even tried them under the "change for all users" setting.....NADA!
I have tried editing the Windows display settings: (all screen shots below are with this setting size)
The screenshot below is at 250%. It does not make any difference in the application (check out the menu bar, properties, icons....) If I go over 150% I lose dialog box space...the buttons disappear! If I keep it at 150% the words "Advanced Actions" at the top of the dialog box shrinks slightly, enough to fit the buttons in...) I showed the difference using snag it (12 pt arial compared to the appearance of the UI ~ 4 pt.) This is so hard to see! Same issue in some of the other adobe applications. (fyi...they are all up to date)
Photoshop = same problem
Dreamweaver = working fine
Flash = working fine
Premier Pro = half working....(menubar is ok but everything else is real small)
Muse = not working
Adobe Edge Code = Working fine
OOF! Well, any thoughts anyone? I appreciate any and al feedback and ideas!!!

Apple Mail (Mavericks), Viewing size of list is too small.how do you increase the size of the email message list. The font is too small, I can hardly read them.

In Apple Mail, using Mavericks, how do you increase the size of the email message list that displays on the left side of the screen?
The font size is so small.
Thanks.

Thank you for responding. After investigating and checking further, it was clear that only one of your suggestions changes the font size of the list of emails, also called the In-box. And that is the display resolution.
However, changing the display resolution affects the dots per inch of everything, everywhere and makes it larger.
Given the high end fee Apple charges for their products, and the generally well developed software they provide, it is hard to imagine they have not corrected this obvious slight of effort on the inbox text. At times Apple's "one-size-fits-all" and "it's our way or no way" mentality astounds me and makes me want to run back to Microsoft.
Evidently this is a well known mistake, which has yet to receive any attention.
Again, thank you for your effort and assistance on my behalf.

How can i enlarge the mail size?

hi all:
i have installed JES2005Q4. The system version is:
Sun Java(tm) System Messaging Server 6.2-3.04 (built Jul 15 2005)
libimta.so 6.2-3.04 (built 01:43:03, Jul 15 2005)
SunOS mail 5.10 Generic_118833-33 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Fire-280R
now, i assigned the "bronze" service package to all the users. According to the description, this package allow the max-mailblocks is 700. so, if i send the mail which includes a attachment(>=700K), the system will say "552 5.3.4 a message size of 702 kilobytes exceeds the size limit of 700 kilobytes computed for this transaction".
how do i enlarge the every mail size to 2M?
thank you!!

i found the cos.sample.ldif file and edited the bronze mailMsgMaxBlocks to 2000. The cos.sample.ldif file is to be used to create new service packages. It is a template on what they should look like. In your case you are editing an existing service package. Let me run you through an example that I performed on my own system:
=> Settings for user shjorth who has the service package "mars" applied, note "mailmsgmaxblocks: 700"
bash-3.00# ldapsearch -D "cn=directory manager" -w password -b "dc=aus,dc=sun,dc=com" uid=shjorth mailmsgmaxblocks inetcos
version: 1
dn: uid=shjorth,ou=People,o=aus.sun.com,dc=aus,dc=sun,dc=com
mailmsgmaxblocks: 700
inetcos: mars=> Review the mars Class-of-Service (CoS) template, this is where the "mailmsgmaxblocks: 700" above comes from
ldapsearch -b "o=mailcalendaruser,o=costemplates,dc=aus,dc=sun,dc=com" -D "cn=directory manager" -w password "(&(objectclass=ldapsubentry)(cn=mars))"
version: 1
dn: cn=mars,o=mailcalendaruser,o=cosTemplates,dc=aus,dc=sun,dc=com
objectClass: top
objectClass: LDAPsubentry
objectClass: extensibleobject
objectClass: cosTemplate
cn: mars
mailMsgMaxBlocks: 700
mailQuota: 5242288
mailMsgQuota: 3000
mailAllowedServiceAccess: +pop:ALL$+imap:ALL$+smtp:ALL$+http:ALL
daservicetype: calendar user
daservicetype: mail user=> Edit the mars CoS template to increase the mailMsgMaxBlocks: to 2000 (2MB)
bash-3.00# ldapmodify -D "cn=directory manager"
Enter bind password:
dn: cn=mars,o=mailcalendaruser,o=cosTemplates,dc=aus,dc=sun,dc=com
changetype: modify
replace: mailMsgMaxBlocks
mailMsgMaxBlocks: 2000
modifying entry cn=mars,o=mailcalendaruser,o=cosTemplates,dc=aus,dc=sun,dc=com=> Confirm user shjorth with mars CoS template now has mailmsgmaxblocks: 2000 set
bash-3.00# ldapsearch -D "cn=directory manager" -w password -b "dc=aus,dc=sun,dc=com" uid=shjorth mailmsgmaxblocks inetcos
version: 1
dn: uid=shjorth,ou=People,o=aus.sun.com,dc=aus,dc=sun,dc=com

Considerations
* Delegated Administrator caches the service package definitions so viewing the service package definition in the "All Service Packages" tab may not reflect the current settings. Restart webserver hosting delegated administrator to flush the cache immediately. The settings which control the refresh time of the cache are servicepackage-ttlhours and servicepackage-ttlminutes in the /var/opt/SUNWcomm/WEB-INF/classes/sun/comm/cli/server/servlet/resource.properties file
* Messaging Server has a LDAP cache, so any user LDAP modifications (which the above change was) may take up to 15 minutes (by default) to be reflected. If you want to test that the user now has an increased maximum email size do so 15 minutes after applying the LDAP modification or restart the MTA to flush the cache (./imsimta restart)

Please a simple problem but I don't know how to solve it. After installing 16 gb of ram all is good but when I turn on the computer it is a window signaling that all is correct. How is possible to delete once and for all that window? Thank you

Well then maybe you could take a screenshot because the appearance of such a window is news to me.
Also post your OS X version and what model Mac you have. The more detail, the better. Thanks.
To take a screenshot hold ⌘ Shift 4 to create a selection crosshair. Click and hold while you drag the crosshair over the area you wish to capture and then release the mouse or trackpad. You will hear a "camera shutter" sound. This will deposit a screenshot on your Desktop.
If you can't find it on your Desktop look in your Documents or Downloads folder.
When you post your response, click the "camera" icon above the text field:
This will display a dialog box which enables you to choose the screenshot file (remember it's on your Desktop) and click the Insert Image button.
⌘ Shift 4 and then pressing the space bar captures the frontmost window.
⌘ Shift 3 captures the entire screen.
Drag the screenshot to the Trash after you post your reply.

How can you shrink the size of an upright picture to make it smaller without losing any of the detail in it??? At the moment, if I view them on my laptop, landscape photos fill the screen, but portrait photos only show the middle part.

How can you shrink the size of an upright picture to make it smaller without losing any of the detail in it (in Slideshow)??? At the moment, if I view them on my Mac Laptop, landscape photos fill the screen, but portrait photos only show the middle part, so I loose the top and bottom of the picture. Have tried cropping, but that means I lose top and bottom part of the picture, so that is not the answer!!

Homestly haven't a clue what's going on there.
Try trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder.
(On 10.7: Hold the option (or alt) key while clicking on the Go menu in Finder to access the User Library)
(Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
What's the plist file?
For new users: Every application on your Mac has an accompanying plist file. It records certain User choices. For instance, in your favourite Word Processor it remembers your choice of Default Font, on your Web Browser is remembers things like your choice of Home Page. It even recalls what windows you had open last if your app allows you to pick up from where you left off last. The iPhoto plist file remembers things like the location of the Library, your choice of background colour, whether you are running a Referenced or Managed Library, what preferences you have for autosplitting events and so on. Trashing the plist file forces the app to generate a new one on the next launch, and this restores things to the Factory Defaults. Hence, if you've changed any of these things you'll need to reset them. If you haven't, then no bother. Trashing the plist file is Mac troubleshooting 101.

As the last post suggests, call Apple and order a replacement original disc for about $17. They will ask you the model and serial numbers.
Your retail version of Snow Leopard OS 10.6.3 will not work on that Mac as it requires a minimum of OS X 10.6.7 to boot and operate.
Another alternative is to again borrow another Mac to install your retail Snow Leopard into an external HD or partition, upgrade it to 10.6.8 and then clone it back to a partition on your MBP.

Can you drag the bottom right corner? You can in Snow Leopard, and I imagine you can in Lion.

When I turn on messages, I can't see my messages. All I can see is a screen with horizontal lines and a text list of addresses. How can I get the regular message screen back?

The same is happening for me. Today I decided to reboot my PC because it was acting up a bit, go figure, and then for some reason at the same time the PC was restarting my macbook froze. I had to do a reboot with the restart button but then all that came up was a gray background and in the middle of the screen was a darker gray folder with a white question mark in the middle of it, blinking. I can't imagine why the restart would've affected my macbook. After finding information on how to fix this, I tried all of the steps that were given about using the mac OS X disk to use the first aid utility to fix it. When using the Disk Utility option whenever I select my hardrive and am in the First Aid tab, the only button I can use is the Verify Disk Permissions. The other three buttons, and namely the most important Repair Disk button, is/are not selectable (grayed out). I then tried resetting the PRAM the way they also said with the command + option + P + R and waited for the second startup sound. After that I gave the Disk Utility a second try, but still nothing. And now if I try to just reinstall the OS completely I can't even select a destination volume on the third step (Select Destination). Apparently this means i'm SOL.

The first place to start may be to check Activity Monitor. Look at the Disk Usage tab and the CPU tab and see if any one or two things seem to be dominating that activity. Especially see if it's some 3rd party app or background process.

How do I enlarge the text in the toolbar of Safari 5. I need to be able to see the bookmarks that I've placed there. Also I would really like to be able to enlarge the icon size in the Safari toolbar too.

I am hunting for help in being able to see the text in the toolbar on Safari... also, it would be helpful, too, if I could even enlarge the icons there. I'm dealing with a vision problem and finding that it's quite frustrating when I discover I've clicked on the wrong thing or I can't find what I want to click on up there. Any help will be greatly appreciated!
Thank you!

Hi Dorothy,
Took me awhile to get on a Mac that has Safari 5 on it, (I hate Safari past 3.x, so never update or use it).
Anyway, I see no options for that at all, though I think it was rumored that 10.4, 10.5, 10.6, 10.7, 10.8 would have it!
I think your only options are to use the Zoom in Key Combo of CMD & +, or if you don't have a numeric Keypad then CMD+Shift+equal sign, or in System Preferences>Universal Access>Seeing tab, turn Zoom on, then Option+CMD+= will Zoom it in, Option+CMS+minus sign zooms out again.
There may be some 3rd party system hacks around the text part, but they usually cause problems sooner or later.
