[SOLVED] Screen Slightly Cut Off

Hello,
I just installed Arch for the first time but during installation I noticed that the very left side of the screen was being cut off, about half a characters worth of it.
This is happening in kde and the shells. I tried to take a screenshot to post, but to my suprise, it was just fine! Perfectly lined up. I also tried changing the settings in
System Settings > Display and Monitor > Size and Orientation, but when I changed the VGA and HDMI positions in the menu and pressed apply, nothing changed.
Sorry if this is a stupid question, but it is really annoying and has had me stuck for a while, So does anyone have any idea what's wrong?
Thanks.

It's a monitor... and no I haven't tried that. Thanks, Googling right away.
One worry I have though, is that it seemed to be fine in Ubuntu.
Maybe they have something to auto adjust it back?

I am trying to play cafe world and the screen is cut off so i can not play

i am trying to play cafe world and the screen is cut off so i have half of a screen so how do i make it larger so i can play of i will have to go back to explorer

Please do the following:
* Update to Firefox 29 [[Update Firefox to the latest version]]
* [[Remove recent browsing, search and download history]]
Also, I strongly suggest updating to Windows 8.1 update 1 as plain old windows 8 is no longer secure or stable.

When uploading videos to iWeb, the video screen gets cut off at the top. It only happens in Firefox, but not in Safari.

I'm using pure HTML5 for mobile websites although you need to provide an OGG file for Firefox. See the movie page on this site...
http://mobile.ezmacwebdesign.com/
If you don't have an iPhone, grab the browser handle and drag it to the left to reduce the width to see how it responds to mobile devices' fixed width browsers .
This will play in all modern browsers and on mobile devices. You can use QuickTime Pro for the OGG or OGV conversion or get the freeware Miro Video Converter...

If you only want to upload an MP4, you can use a flash fallback player and this will cover Firefox and those geriatrics that still use older versions of Internet Explorer....

If you use any of the four fallback players above, take advantage of the fact that you can add a poster image and stop the video file from preloading. This makes for a faster page download time.
You can also achieve this using HTML5 by adding preload="none" and poster="URL to the poster image" into the code shown on this page...

When i move a clip into the top project screen, it cuts off about an inch of video. im trying to make a chin face video so i need that inch. any help?

1) Make sure that your project is in the same aspect ratio as your camera. If your camera shoots 16:9. make a 16:9 project.
2) Check the clip inspector for the clip in your project to see if Image Stabilization is turned on. Stabilization works by zooming in, so you may want to turn it off.

Bottom half of titling near bottom screen gets cut off on my tv.

I shared a standard 4:3 movie from iMovie to the Media Browser at the large setting (720x540), then created a widescreen 16:9 project in iDVD for it (the menus look cooler in widescreen). For some reason on the final burned dvd some titling that I have in the movie near the bottom of the screen gets cut off when watching it on the tv (doesn't fit on screen). It does fit when watching it on the computer screen.
*Also, is sharing to media browser in iMovie going to give you the best quality video for a DVD made with iDVD?

I've read on this forum that quality is best when one allows iDvd to do the actual encoding rather than iMovie or another app. Will you see a significant improvement /difference between that and having iMovie or FCP encode your the QT file / Movie? ..... might be debatable.
As far as the titles running off the TV screen but not on a computer ..... well that's actually normal since most computers show a higher pixel count than most set top tv's /CRT's.
You might be able to improve this by unchecking TV Safe Area if you notice a default check mark in that particular box.
Good luck.

Basics from the manual are restart, reset, restore.
You can also try removing and reinstalling the app

HI,
Can you drag the bottom right corner of the Safari window to the left then click and hold the title bar and move the window to the right?
You can zoom in Safari on your keyboard, Command + or -

Images at the bottom of the screen are cut off in HDR Pro

I'm running a Mac and have recently installed CS5. When I open files to do an HDR, the photos used in the HDR are cut off at the bottom of the screen. In other words, what I mean is, they should be able to be selected with the check box is being included or not. Also, the "OK" and "Cancel" buttons are cut off. I thought that perhaps it was the screen resolution or perhaps the dockeed icons below. Yet, I'm using the highest screen resolution and that's not a factor. I've hidden the dock,moved it...no difference. I've tried resizing the HDR window but it only resizes horizontally - not vertically.
This is frustrating. I'd like to be able to see the entire images being used in the HDR pro and decide whether to include them (or not) by the check boxes; especially since this is how it's supposed to work. Any ideas?

Hi Charles,
Until just now...it didn't work. Isn't that how it is...ya ask for an answer for something that's broke...then it works.
When it wasn't working...the Green maximize button didn't do much except allow me to pull the window down further. Once I would try to resize the window from the resize section at the bottom right, the window would resize to full size...not much good.
Although...for whatever reason, it seems to be working now. Will it work tomorrow? beats me.
Thanks for yoru help.

Problem Solved: iTunes Songs Cutting Off

Hello Everyone,
I just thought I'd share my knowledge with you all. Granted, my solution may not be your solution but I'm putting it out there for everybody to know.
I was on the phone with Apple iTunes Tech Support for 2 hours going through a really lengthy process of trying to figure out the solution when my host and I finally realized that the solution was a simple one (maybe not, if you have more than a dozen songs having this problem). The problem was that some of my iTunes songs, for no reason at all, were being cut off at the end (usually around a minute or so left in them) and then my iTunes would start playing the next song (unless I had it on the "loop one" setting and then it would loop back to the beginning of that song). The problem, it seems, stemmed from a corrupted song link to the actual file.
The solution:
1) Open a Finder Window
2) Click on the Music tab
3) Click on the iTunes folder
4) Go into your iTunes Media (or iTunes Music) folder
5) Click on the Music Folder within
6) Click on whichever Artist the song comes from and then its Album
7) Check to make sure you have the song in there
8) Open iTunes
9) Delete the problem song from your iTunes application (but make sure to click the option that says Keep File)
10) Click on the same song in your Music Folder and open it in iTunes
The link should now be fixed and your song should play without complications. You'll have to do this with every song that has this problem but at least it will work. By the way, reinstalling your iTunes doesn't fix the problem because it's the link that's corrupted, not the application nor the song, so you'll have to do it this way.
Hope this helps!

Does the track play correctly in Quicktime Player? If it does then it is an iTunes issue. If it doesn't then it is possible the file was not completely downloaded, or is corrupt. If you believe it is corrupt:
If you are in a country where re-downloading is possible (check this with iTunes in the Cloud and iTunes Match Availability by Country - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5085), delete the track (and the original file) and download again (Downloading [using iOS or computer] past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519). See tips on downloading in https://discussions.apple.com/message/19097773, especially unchecking the "Allow Simultaneous Downloads" box in the downloads tab of iTunes.
Select the store on the left side of iTunes.
Click on Purchased on the right side under Quick Links.
You can re-download your available previous purchases.

Screen expanding so info/icons on screen are cut off

Very bizarre. I just noticed today. 3GS 32gb.
Simpliest is with the home screen, but occurs on apps as well.
The bottom of the screen I have the 4 icons.
If I turn the phone on or exit an app to get to the main iphone screen, those 4 icons display their titles below the icon, but then the screen expands so their titles are no longer displayed.
The AT&T signal bar gets slightly truncated on the very left most bar.
If I launch an application, just before the home screen closes to get to the launched application, the screen shrinks slightly so I can see everything as it should be on the screen and then the app is launched.
I turned the phone off and then back on but that didn't solve it.
I guess one of the recently updated Apps must be mucking this up.

Check Settings -> Accessibility -> Zoom and, if it is on, select OFF.

When playing a game on Firefox, game screen is cut off at bottom. Cannot see entire game, nor can I scroll to see it.

I am playing Dragons of Atlantis on Facebook. This morning the full game showed on-screen. A couple hours later, the bottom of the screen was raised and I can't see the bottom of the game screen. I can play the same game on Internet Explorer so I don't think it's the game. I've cleared my cookies and cache. I've also tried the game on our PC and our Mac. I'm assuming it's Firefox as it's the same on both computers. Thanks!

Give this a try:
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete the contents the following folder: User/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto
3 - reboot, launch iPhoto and try full screen again.
NOTE: For Mavericks and Yosemite, go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring the this window:
where you can check the Show Library Folder checkbox.

Why is the YouTube screen being cut off?

I've had my iPod touch for about two weeks. It was fine until yesterday . After I finished a YouTube video, I clicked "done" and the comment part of the screen came shooting out as usual but then stopped before reaching the top of the screen, leaving a black space at the top of the screen. This has happened twice in two days, and only reset has fixed it. It happens to be I slept on my iPod that day, though I don't think directly---and I have not had any other defects.

- First try restoring your iPod from backup
- If problem persists, restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod.

Screen Share Cuts Off Internet

Well, I recently upgraded from a basic laptop to a beefy gaming computer, and skype is working great except for one thing. Every time I screen share, about 1-5min into it, I loose all internet connection on my computer and go offline. I don't know how or why this is happening, because my internet is fine otherwise and I can host calls and game online at the same time. It only looses connection when I screenshare, no other time. I've tried this with different people, but always the same result, so I know it is something on my end.
I'm running Skype 7.5 (just updated) on Windows 8.

The Dlink DI-604 is listed on the D-Link site as a Mac Compatible product. If they have said it is a know recurring problem, then I would ask for a replacement/refund and move on to another router.
However, if you want to try and use the router, we will need more info on your connection. Is it a cable or DSL modem you are connected to. Are you given a Static, or Dynamic IP from your Internet provider. Are you using the default settings in the router, or have you made any changes.

Q5 screen cuts off at top and left side

I've had my Q5 for a week. Today I noticed the screen is cutting off on the top and the left side.
Does anyone have any idea how I can fix this?

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
Anytime random strange behavior or sluggishness shows up, the first thing to try is a proper reboot:
Pre-BB10 Devices ONLY. With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes.
BB10 Devices. Hold the top button down until the counter reaches zero. Wait for the device to be fully shut down (e.g., nothing at all displayed on the screen, no LED lights, etc.). Hold the top button until the red LED is lit. Wait through the full boot-up process. If this fails, you can attempt the battery-pull method above, but it is normally NOT recommended unless nothing else works.
See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.
Good luck!

IPhone Cuts off Full Screen Photos in Contact View

The iPhone can use a full screen photo of a contact (when a call is initiated), if the original is cropped in iPhoto as '2 x 3 (iPhone) / Portrait'. (To set up full screen view on the iPhone, the user must select a contact, tap the 'Edit' button, tap the contact photo, tap 'Edit Photo', tap 'Choose', then tap 'Done'.) However, the same photo is then cropped to a square shape when initially viewed in the Contact screen, often cutting off the person's forehead. A suggestion for improvement would be to have the iPhone use the square cropping settings of the original photo when it was added to Address Book (for initial Contact view), and then use the 2 x 3 settings when the call is initiated to have the photo fill the screen. Anyone have any workarounds?

Hello
I have updated my software recently and the full screen default for the web browser is very annoying and causing my phone to slow down badly.
Has anyone been able to turn the Full Screen web mode default off??
Or how do you delete a software update.
Thanks
Darren
