[Solved] Chromium always in full screen mode

Does it happen to anyone else? Since yesterday, chromium starts in full screen mode, and, no matter what you do, press f11 or whatever, it does not go back to normal mode... pretty annoying....
I have been looking for info and some people say its because of dual monitor setup: I have dual monitor setup...
Do you know how to fix this?

Sorry, I should have asked what version of Chromium you are using also.  Is it 14.0.835.202?

  • No alt key access to top menus in full screen mode Ps CS5 Ext?

    I'm using the trial version of CS5 on a Win7 machine, after using Ps CS3 for a fair amount of time.  When painting in Ps, I am almost always in full screen mode.  In CS3, you could be in full screen mode and hit the alt key plus the active letter of a top bar menu, like F for File or T for Filter or W for Window, and that menu would appear, and you could hit subsequent active letters to get the associated function.  I used alt+I then E then H to flip the canvas horizontally.  Super quick and awesome!  Now the E has been changed to a G, but no matter.  The big deal is that in full screen mode, this no longer works!  I just get an error sound when I hit the alt and I button together. I have to hit Tab to bring up the menus and palettes before I can use the alt + top menu letter functionality.
    Is this an oversight, or is there functionality to disabling this hotkey use when in full screen mode?
    Any ideas?  Should I put this in the feature request forum?
    Thanks!

    Hmmmm....
    When NOT in full screen mode, people on this forum sometimes complain that the Alt modifier key is activating the menus and causing subsequent operations for which they're using Alt (e.g., zoom out) to irritatingly trigger the Windows "ding" sound.
    Notably when IN full screen mode that's not happening with CS5 because the Alt key simply doesn't activate the menus.
    Interesting thought...
    Perhaps Adobe made it work this way on purpose so that they could tell people complaining about the first issue to run Photoshop in Full Screen mode.  That's just a guess.
    As a workaround to your issue, you could of course expand the Photoshop window to be very close to the full size of the screen and just keep running it as a Window, rather than using full screen mode at all.  Yes, I realize this isn't a fix, but just a possible workaround until such time (if ever) Adobe gets around to fixing the modifier keys to work properly (again).  I have chosen to use Photoshop this way myself, and other than wasting a bit of screen space it seems to be a pretty decent workaround to using F mode.
    Funny thing is it seemed Adobe had the modifier keys working pretty much properly in Photoshop CS4.  I wonder why they changed it.

    please answer me its urgent thank u

    What you describe is just the way it works.  You need to use Full Screen with Menus mode if you want to access the menu functionality.

  • Pages jumps after leaving full screen mode

    This has been driving me mad or quite a while. I'm a writer and I spend most of the day working with Pages. It's always in full screen mode, but whenever I switch to Mail or Safari, or if the system goes into screensaver mode, Pages jumps back from the insertion point, i.e. where I was working, to another place in the text, sometimes as far back as thirty pages. I have filed a bug report, but am curious to know if this common and if there is a solution. Any advise is appreciated.

    Never got this behavior on my machines.

  • Is there a way to set an application to always open in full screen mode?

    Some applications I would like to default to full screen on startup (iPhoto for example).  Is there a setting for that, or do I need to manually switch to full screen every time I launch it?
    Thanks!

    Have been searching for this as well. Mail, Safari, iWorks always opens full-screen. iPhoto and iMovies does not. Have a feeling that for now that feature is not working in iPhoto and iMovies.

  • Make application always launch in full screen mode?

    Some apps such as Mail and iTunes will remember that they are set to full screen mode when the Mac is restarted and will relaunch exactly as I left them.
    I have one third-party app (Linootype FontExplorer X Pro) which supports the full screen feature, but upon restart it will revert to a standard window rather than full screen and occupying its own space. The app's preferences don't seem to have any specific setting in them, but I was wondering if there is anything at the OS level I could try?
    Thanks

  • The Firefox window pops up on a regular interval when any other program is being used, even when a film is playing in full screen mode from Firefox.

    The Firefox window pops up on a regular interval (I think every 5 or 10 min) when any other program is being used, even when a film is playing in full screen mode from Firefox. It does not happen if Firefox is not running (i.e. it does not start by itself). The OS is Windows 7 SP1 and this begun after installing the Firefox update 5.0.1. Exactly all programs are updated with the latest version, the computer is clean according to Microsoft Security Essentials. Please solve this problem.

    -> Tap '''ALT''' key or press '''F10''' to show the Menu Bar
    -> go to Help Menu -> select '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled'''
    Firefox will close then it will open up with just basic Firefox. Now do this:
    -> Update ALL your Firefox Plug-ins https://www.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/
    -> go to View Menu -> Toolbars -> unselect All Unwanted/Incompatible Toolbars
    -> go to Tools Menu -> Clear Recent History -> '''Time range to clear: select "EVERYTHING"''' -> click Details (small arrow) button -> place Checkmarks on '''Cookies, Cache''' -> click '''Clear Now'''
    -> go to Tools Menu -> Options -> General -> in '''Startup''' section click '''Reset to Default''' button -> place Checkmark on '''Show the Downloads window when downloading a file''' -> select Radio Button option2 '''Always ask me where to save files'''
    -> go to Tools Menu -> Options -> Content -> place Checkmarks on:
    1) Block Pop-up windows 2) Load images automatically 3) Enable JavaScript
    -> go to Tools Menu -> Options -> Privacy -> History section -> '''Firefox will: select "Remember History"'''
    -> go to Tools Menu -> Options -> Security -> place Checkmarks on:
    1) Warn me when sites try to install add-ons 2) Block reported attack sites 3) Block reported web forgeries 4) Remember Passwords for sites
    -> go to Tools Menu -> Options -> Advanced -> Network -> Offline Storage (Cache): click '''Clear Now''' button
    -> Click OK on Options window
    -> click the Favicon on SearchBar -> click '''Manage Search Engines''' -> select all Unwanted Search Engines and click '''Remove''' -> click OK
    -> go to Tools Menu -> Add-ons -> Extensions section -> REMOVE All Unwanted/Suspicious/Incompatible Extensions (Add-ons)
    -> go to Tools Menu -> Add-ons -> Appearance section -> REMOVE All Unwanted/Suspicious/Incompatible Themes (Persona)
    -> Restart Firefox
    You can enable your Known & Trustworthy Add-ons and Themes later. Check and tell if its working.

  • Can't see TV shows purchased from Music Store in Full Screen Mode

    Prior to the release of iTunes 7.0, I had been purchasing episodes of LOST from the iTunes Music Store and watching the episodes on my Mac in Full Screen viewing mode.
    Since downloading iTunes 7.0, I have been unable to watch any television shows purchased from the Music Store from that date forward in Full Screen mode. When I select iTunes>View>Full Screen I can hear the audio, but I cannot see the image. Instead, my monitor goes totally black. If I select iTunes>View>Fit to Screen, I am able to see the video, however, the video does not fill up my screen...instead, I have about two inches of desktop showing on either side of the image. Does anyone know how to solve this problem so that I can once again watch purchased television shows in Full Screen mode?
    By the way, I am now running iTunes 7.0.2.
    Power Mac G4 Tower   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    Alan, I just checked and I don't see a section for TV shows in the Canadian store. As the initial deal was made with ABC, I doubt that there is any content available yet for you. I do see the pixar section and the music video section, however.
    Similarly, a visit to the Apple Canada site shows no mention of being able to download TV shows.
    As with the music, it is going to take a separate lisence to bring TV content to each store. If and when that is going to happen, no one around here would be able to say.

  • When I open iTunes it will automatically go to full screen mode. I can't work out how to turn this off. Only iTunes opens to full screen mode.

    When I open iTunes it will automatically go to full screen mode. I can't work out how to turn this off. Only iTunes opens to full screen mode.

    Go to System Preferences (under the Apple logo in the menu bar).  Choose "General".  Click "Always close windows when quitting an application".
    That should fix it.
