Screen too narrow

The screen of my MacBook Pro is suddenly too narrow. There are 2 black bars on either side of the screen and the actual picture you should see is compressed in the middle. I tried to change the monitor/screen settings but it didn't help. some programs seem to adjust to the narrow screen and others don't. what should I do??

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
Do you have access to an Apple Store? If so, you might make an appointment at the genius bar and have someone take a look at it. This could be a hardware problem.
Good luck!

Dear Experts,
I Developed Screen-exit For IW51 t.codeTypically the custom fields are displayed in the notification on a separate tab, or at the bottom of the u201CGeneralu201D or u201CMainu201D tab. These are configuration decisions that could be made in the build phase.
Sets of custom fields need to be added based on the notification type. The following table provides a list and details of the custom fields required. The table to be extended is the VIQMEL table (to be verified by developer).
Also to extend header fields on the notification you need to include them in the include CI_QMEL where OPEX M&I has already fields in.
All fields should go on the notification header. There are no custom fields on the task or activity level.
All fields should be reviewed for consistency with the M&I design, specifically, Thomas Brothers, Atlas Sheet, district code. See Dale Alano.
Please any Body Helped Coding For this, Already i Created Customfields , I design Subscreen also using Enhancement QQMA0001. Using Exit name EXIT_SAPMIWO0_008 USIN SUBSCREEN 0104 PLEASE ANY BODY help me Coding for this IW52

Where is the actual paper width sensor? (Getting too narrow paper message.)I'm tech capable!

Getting "Paper too narrow" message. What actually senses paper width? Is it an optical sensor on the print head mechanism? Sorry should have stated printer type. It's an HP 2210xi all in one and it's been darn good until now.

In general theory, one now has the Edit button for their posts, until someone/anyone Replies to it. I've had Edit available for weeks, as opposed to the old forum's ~ 30 mins.
That, however, is in theory. I've posted, and immediately seen something that needed editing, only to find NO Replies, yet the Edit button is no longer available, only seconds later. Still, in that same thread, I'd have the Edit button from older posts, to which there had also been no Replies even after several days/weeks. Found one that had to be over a month old, and Edit was still there.
Do not know the why/how of this behavior. At first, I thought that maybe there WAS a Reply, that "ate" my Edit button, but had not Refreshed on my screen. Refresh still showed no Replies, just no Edit either. In those cases, I just Reply and mention the [Edit].
Also, it seems that the buttons get very scrambled at times, and Refresh does not always clear that up. I end up clicking where I "think" the right button should be and hope for the best. Seems that when the buttons do bunch up they can appear at random around the page, often three atop one another, and maybe one way the heck out in left-field.
While I'm on a role, it would be nice to be able to switch between Flattened and Threaded Views on the fly. Each has a use, and having to go to Options and then come back down to the thread is a very slow process. Jive is probably incapable of this, but I can dream.

Problem with InDesign CC redrawing the screen too slow while using Zoom tool

Hello. I got a problem with InDesign CC redrawing the screen too slow while using Zoom tool. Sometimes it takes more than a secong to zoom in or out. However InDesign CS6, Photoshop CC, Illustrator CC works just fine. What could be the problem, videocard or something else? Below is my PC configuration: OS Windows 8 Pro (x64); processor Intel Core i7 2600k CPU 3,40GHz; video adapter NVIDIA GeForse GTS 450; monitor NEC PA271W (2560x1440).

Yes it’s a bug. The trick is to select the tool and then left click the photo information strip and hold for a few seconds until you see the windows bar at the top of the screen (not responding)
The lasso tool should then work normally.

Screen too large for internal buffer

Hi,
2 days ago I have an issue when I execute "crontab -e" with my terminal maximized. The error say "Screen too large for internal buffer" and the term crash. But when the term isn't maximized the command works fine. I tried with teminal (XFCE), Konsole, rxvt... My screen resolution is 1680x1050. With visudo command I have the same issue.
¿Anybody have this problem too?
Many thanks

export VISUAL=vim
Thank you again

Device preferences dialog box is too narrow and cuts off check boxes - can't change synch prefs?

In itunes - preferences - devices dialogue box is too narrow - can't see check boxes - hence can't change synch settings. Have checked resolution and text size - both set at smallest.

Are you on Windows or Mac?
Look here to see where your Lightroom preferences are located on your system, and make absolutely certain that the user running LR has permission to read and write to that folder.

How do I change the window margins & slider bars? The slider bars are too narrow for my preference.

The slider bar on the right of the browser window is too narrow for me. I want to make it wider. I'm using Firefox ver 8 in Windows 7.

AH thanks! that works for crude volume adjustments. At least I can DO it now, thanks.
The problem is I very often need to do subtle adjustmennts and Fn > F12 > Shift > Option is just too much of a stretch. Possible but **** tricky
Is there really no way at all to reassign these keys?

Report column too narrow

hello
I am making a report that has a column with 3 check boxes. the width of the column is the width of the column heading. how do i make the column width wider with out changing the column heading is there a property for this? it keeps wrapping the check boxes because the column is too narrow

I don't have access to APEX at the moment, but the usual way is to set a CSS style on the table column header. There's an option to add a string, such as the following, into the style section of the table header:
display:block;width:250px;overflow:hidden;
Hope that helps

Does anyone else find the scroll bars too narrow.

Does anyone else find the scroll bars too narrow? I have to select them several times. Otherwise, I love OS X Lion

We NEED Snow-Leopard Width Scroll Bars ( and Arrows too )
Correction YOU need. I am glad to see them gone. Forgotten all about them, so please don't speak for everyone.
So Lion is still Broken… and Mountain Lion does not seem the fix the issue either…
Lion is not broken, you are simply having a lot of trouble adjusting to it and trying to forget your old habits. Lion is fine. And Mountain Lion not applying the 'fix' you believe is required does not bode well for your future usage and thus reverting to Snow Leopard may be your only hope of regaining these outdated features.

I accidentally set my ruler too narrow

I was trying to copy an arrange region by pressing alt-option and dragging. But I somehow set the ruler to be tiny. Everything is too narrow in the window now. How do I widen it back?

HP6110 Align cartridges problem "paper too narrow" message

I have put in a new colour cartridge and on pressing Enter to align the cartridges it looks like it is going to do it then it just pushes the paper through without doing anything and I get the message "paper too narrow load wider paper"!! It the same A4 paper I always use. I have removed all the paper, moved the paper keepers backward and forward and reloaded the paper. I have tried turning off, removing the power at both ends and waiting a few minutes and then switching back on. Same result. Also the print cartridges wont come back out when I lift the top so I can't take them out and replace them either. Can anyone help?

my hp photosmart c4180 is out of alignment,how do I fix?

Larger iWeb Page/Window Width... too narrow by default!

My iWeb Window frame is too small (too narrow). I feel like I have little room to work with (there's too much "idle" space on the left and right sides); when I look at other sites (including this iWeb Forum Page), their Width's are wider. Is there any way to expand the default width on iWeb, so I can use more than 1/3 of each page?

The best width is 980px which is what Apple use. Change this in the Page inspector Layout window.
Also, see my post here....

I have Firefox 19 and the screens are narrow. How can I get full width screens, like I get in IE? Full Screen command only makes my screens taller, not wider.

I just got a new Dell Optiplex computer with Windows 7. I installed Firefox 19 on it. The web pages come up narrow, with borders on each side. So the content of the screen is smaller than what I've gotten in the past with Firefox 3.6 on my previous computer. I did the Full Screen command, and that only made the screen taller rather than giving me a full screen (such as I get with the same web pages in Internet Explorer). I've also tried enlarging the text, but that throws off the format of the web page so some parts of it overlap.
What can I do to get a full screen, including full width?
There is a box below this Details box called "Troubleshooting Information" which says I should click Allow and then click Install. Since I don't know what would be installed on my computer, I did not do it.

The Troubleshooting Information extension adds some useful information to your post, but in this case, I don't think it's really needed.
Zoom is your best bet. To make it work for you, I have two suggestions.
(1) Switch from "text only" zoom to "full page" zoom. This is proportional like in IE.
View menu > Zoom > ''uncheck'' Zoom Text Only
If you are using the compact menus with the orange Firefox button, tap the Alt key to display the full classic menu bar.
(2) Install an extension that can default your view to a higher zoom level automatically to save time when visiting new sites. Here are two candidates:
* [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/default-fullzoom-level/ Default FullZoom Level]
* [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/nosquint/ NoSquint]
With that combination, can you minimize your eyestrain? :-)
