Trying to see the whole picture
On my movies and home movies, I am trying to see the whole picture on my plasma TV. The setting on the tv will not let me get rid of the black parts. And I don't think the settings on the apple tv does not let me get rid of it either.
Can somebody help me out? I hope I gave enough information.
the appletv will display the content in the correct aspect ratio, therefore depending on the content you will get black bars.
for 4:3 content you will get black bars left and right (when viewing on a widescreen TV).
for widescreen content (for which there are many different aspect ratios), you will get black bars top and bottom (unless the content is the same ratio as your TV).
by displaying the black bars, the appletv (and your TV) is displaying everything correctly.

Quick answer: Select all the tracks on the album, File > get info, and either give them all a single "album artist", or check the "compilation" flag (as in https://discussions.apple.com/message/17670085).
If these are from multiple-CD sets you may also need to enter the appropriate information in the disc number fields. If they are not a multiple CD set you still need to make sure the disc number fields are set correctly or all empty. -
My appearance add-on doesn't show enough of the entire picture, so how can I see the whole picture?
I download a few delightful "Appearance" add-ons -- full size -- however only a miniscule part of them show on my screen. And the pert that shows is covered by the tool bars. I have already given up displaying them on my screen, and I've decided I'd like to add them to my photo collection if that would be allowed. Is there a way I could simply download them for wallpaper or file away to look at now and then without signing a contract or anything? I have no desire to post them anywhere or claim them as my own creations.
Thank you for any help you can provide.“Persona” — a type of Apperance add-on — is just a fancy name for a toolbar background. You can show more of the image by adding more toolbars:
# Right-click an empty area of the tab bar and choose '''Customize'''.
# In the window that opens, click the '''Add New Toolbar''' button, then enter a name for it when prompted.
# Drag the ''Flexible Space'' icon onto the new toolbar.
# Click the '''Done''' button.
The list of installed personas is stored as the ''lightweightThemes.usedThemes'' preference.
# Type ''about:config'' in the address bar and press Enter.
# Press the big button to bypass the warning.
# In the Search box, paste ''lightweightThemes.usedThemes''
# In the search results, right-click ''lightweightThemes.usedThemes'' and choose '''Copy value'''.
# Paste the value in a text editor like Notepad to get a better look. “headerURL” is the image used for the top part of the window (the navigation and bookmarks toolbars), while “footerURL” is the image used for the bottom part of the window (the add-on bar).
Maybe you were hoping for the functionality provided by this extension.

When I open the web browser I cannot see the whole page and I cannot move the image sideways and must use the mouse scroll to move up and down.
Try the following:
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 again.
NOTE: For Mavericks, 10.9, 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. -
I duplicated a picture selecting CMD and D but, suddenly, iPhoto (latest version '11) started cloning that picture and replacing all the other photos with it.
Only when I click directly on one photo I can open it and see the real picture it is.
But the preview is always the duplicated one...
I tryed to duplicate another picture just to see if it turned out ok but the only changement was the duplicated picture!
I started repeating the second duplicated one instead of the previous one but my issue remained the same.
So, how can you help me to solve this problem without losing any saved picture?
Shall I re-install iPhoto completely?
Thank you very very much in advance!!As Larry says, restoring the back up is the fastest and best solution. Otherwise:
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

I just want to make my header taller so I can see the whole image in the persona I downloaded from firefox personas.
They should be nearly identical - Internet recovery has a few less features and takes far longer to start up. I think you only get Internet recovery on certain macs and even then only if the recovery partition isn't working. Once in recovery mode you should be able to repair the hard drive and permissions using disk utility.
Once you have repaired the disk you should be able to choose an install OS X option where it downloads a fresh copy space permitting and it tries to keep files in place.
I think N during startup gets you network boot and D on gets you the hardware test. Shift during startup should try to safe boot if there is some sort of conflict keeping it from starting normally. -
How do I see the whole menu width?
In Encore CS4, when I build a menu in 1440 x 1080 16:9, the window in the center of the screen only shows it as 4:3.
I know there is a little slider button so you can move the picture from side to side, and I know you can Preview it, but I want to see the whole 16:9 picture as I work on it, so I can judge the proportions. Is there any way of doing this?Hey Tim. Is it maybe just the fact that you do not have pixel aspect correction ON within the menu viewer? I do not normally work with 1440x1080 (1.33 PAR) menus or footage, but a quick test came up with the results below (CS5). I created the menu in Photoshop using the Film & Video > HDV1080p/29.97 preset.
Toggling this button will make Encore display it as square pixels so you can see the full 16x9 menu stretched out how it will be in the end. This is just a representation of what the menu will look like when it is stretched out, so text and graphics will not necessarily look great. I also usually click on a percentage like 50 or 100. Having it set to "Fit" makes weird things happen around the edges and can be annoying to work with. -
Magic Wand selects the whole picture
Hey, i tried using the Magic Wand Tool to select an area before and it works. But yesterday idk what happened and whenever i used magic want tool to select a specific area it keeps selecting the whole picture. How do i get this fixed? Please reply asap. Thanks!
Hi SepetMTJ22,
I would try looking at Charles' suggestions. It is most likely that you have an empty or solid layer selected, which would select everything for you:
Or that you have a sample size that is too large, make sure you have it set to a small enough point sample. One is recommended. -
Hi,
I working in an InDesign document that
has four pages (two spreads)
For the first two pages (spread), I'm able to see
everything. However, on the second spread I was able to see
the whole thing for awhile by either by zooming out or moving
my cursor up down or to the side with the space bar held down. However,
suddenly that's not working. I can't even scroll down using the scroll bar past the top half of the
second spread unless I'm zoomed out to the point where I can't read
the text.
I've tried Fit Page in Window and Fit Spread In Window and that
doesn't work either. What's going on?
Thanks.Thanks Peter. Wasn't successful with the preferences, but restarting InDesign did the trick.
However, now the type is acting funny. It should be regular black but it's fading from
black to white. I've attached a screenshot.
Think this is related to the preferences?
How do you quit and relaunch InDesign in the manner
you describe in the resetting your prefs intructions? Is
there a way to do that automatically like you in restarting
your computer. Or do you need to quit and then re-open it
while holding down command, shift, control and option?
Thanks. -
MSI GeForce 9800 gt after updating the driver can't see the whole desktop
I have a MSI GeForce 9800gt, and I've tried to update the driver. After update I can no longer see the whole desktop, I have to move the mouse to the edge of the screen to see the rest, it's like there is a zoom or something.
The driver that came with the CD works fine, but any other driver give's me the same problem. I've tried with v.191.07, v.178, v.258.96, v.306.81 and a few other. I've also reinstall the windows but with no better results (I'm using Windows XP Pro).
Please help. Thank you.Thanks for the quick replay, so :

Did you try to set the correct resolution for your screen after updating?
Yes, I've tried different resolutions, the only resolution where I see the whole desktop is 800x600. I even try to change the refresh rate to something lower then 60Hertz(I've read on a forum that a refresh rate of 51 or 59 might solve the problem) but no luck.

I'm usingiPhoto 9.2.1. Recently, everytime I open an album, I get a "face (the same one)" covering every picture. If I click on the picture, I can see the real picture. How do I get rid of this "face" that covers all?
Make a temporary backup of your library (if you don't already have a backup of it) and launch iPhoto with the Command +Option key held down and rebuild the library with options #1, 2, 3 and 6 selected.

How can I see the whole day in day view without scrolling?
I'm using iCal 4.0.4 on my MacBook. I'd like to see the whole day of events without having to scroll down. Right now I can only see about 5 hours at a time. I've set the day to start at 8am to midnight. Is there a way to see 12-16 hours at a time with no scrolling?
Hi,
Go to iCal > Preferences General. If I remember correctly there should be a "Show XX hours at a time" option there. There certainly is in version 6.0.
Best wishes

Sounds like an activation issue. Quite Premiere Pro. Sign out of Creative Cloud. Restart Premiere Pro. Sign back in: http://bit.ly/CC-sign-out
Hope that works for you.

How can I see the whole week with calendar built-in app ?
How can I see the whole week with calendar built-in app ? My husband has an ipad and he can see the whole week and the whole year... is it possible with iphone 4 ?
What you see is what is available.
Turning the iPhone into landscape mode with Month, Day, or List view selected provides the closest thing to seeing an entire week. -

I have a Denon 1913 AVR and Apple TV. Doesn't work...
The Denon won't pass through the video to the TV. I connected the HDMI directly to the TV and the optical out to the Denon, but the audio won't come through (apparently optical audio can only come from the TV). Any suggestions?
