Two arrows on the top right of windows
what are the two arrows on the top right of each window? Thay make the screen huge..
They are a part of 10.8. Known as 'full screen mode' they enlarge a window to the entire size of the screen and remove any unwanted distractions so you can focus on your application.
Click once to enable and then again to disable.
Regards,

I installed the new system yesterday. A few minutes ago I hit the new arrows in the top right of my screen. I have now lost the dock, the apple bar on top, and my favorites. Could someone tell me how to get my old page back, please.
Press the esc key.
or move the mouse pointer to the top of the screen.
Menu bar and toolbar should drop drop down.
Click the blue double arrows at the top right corner.
Application is in FullScreen mode.
Best. -
I have a mac OSX desktop version 10.6.8 and all of a sudden I can't get a full screen view in Safari when I ask for help the response is use the arrows on the top right of the screen ... I don't have them ... can anyone help?
Hi Mary,
I don't remember those arrows in 10.6, only 10.7 & up!?
I have 10.6.8, as you do. To make your Safari full screen, make sure you have the left hand side of your safari page moved all the way to the left. Then move your cursor to the BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER of the safari page, and simply drag your page towards the lower right hand corner of the screen. NOTE: you will see a series of lines on the bottom right corner of the page, indicating where to place you cursor arrow.

My dowload arrow on the top right has disappeared, how do i get it back
Please help with returning my dowload arrow on the top right hand corner, when I open safari, it has disdapeared.
If Safari - Preferences - General - Remove Downloads list items... is set to 'when Safari quits' or 'Upon Successful download'; then it's normal for the download arrow to be missing, until a new download is started. A small download might finish so quickly that the icon isn't noticed.

why do the "SHOW THE PREVIOUS PAGE arrows not work on some websites such when I try yto return to a previous page the arrows at the top right of the page do not work instead they are light grey instead black and do nothing---this is frustrating to not be able to return to the page before--HELP
If a page you go to opens in a new tab, there is no 'back' to go to. If that is the case, just close the tab and you'll be at the page you came from.

Whats happened to the arrow in the top right on safari to go from full to half screen
Since installing Yosemite the facility to click on the top right corner of safari to reduce it to half screen seems to have gone. Can you only do this manually now ? as I liked to have half the screen with safarii and half say iTunes
If you click and hold on the back button, the list will appear after a delay. The "bullet" indicates your current position in the available history.
(Same for the forward button, if you have used Back.) -
Whats the arrow in the top right of the screen?

Is the song just taking an extremely long time to download or have I done something wrong?? I have searched everywhere for an answer and cant seem to find it.
Hi
I have the same problem too with two songs which are in the same state. Mine happened when I was uploading to iCloud and GarageBand crashed during the upload.
It's really annoying as these songs were from live instruments plugged into my iPad and I was using iCloud as a backup but now it's lost the entire song.
I've tried turning off iCloud and getting duplicates of iCloud songs copied to my iPad and then enabling iCloud again and that didn't fix it.
I'm currently downloading the latest patch release of GarageBand to see whether installing that version (which apparently fixes the problem in the first place) will help my songs magically reappear.
Feel I have nothing to lose as I can't get to the songs ........ -
I can click on the down arrow and see sites I have been to, but I can't navigate to these sites by clicking on a site in the list. Nothing happens
That should not happen. Can you please disable you extensions and restart Firefox to see if this temporarily resolves the issue?
If not please try to reset Firefox. The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information. <br>
'''Note''': ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions and some Preferences.''
*Open websites will not be saved in Firefox versions lower than 25.
To Reset Firefox do the following:
'''For Firefox versions previous to 29.0:'''
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox"[[Image:Button reset]] button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
'''For Firefox 29.0 and above:'''
#Click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Troubleshooting Information''.Now, a new tab containing your troubleshooting information should open.
#At the top right corner of the page, you should see a button that says "Reset Firefox"[[Image:Button reset]]. Click on it.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.

In Numbers, I can see my documents but they have the top right corner turned over with a down arrow, what does that mean? I touch it and nothing happens.
I have recently done a full restore because my iPad and iPhone were mis-behaving and wouldn't work they way I expected with Windows XP and Outlook 2003 and now when I check iCloud.com, all my documents are gone, yet my iPad hints that they may still be somewhere but where are they?That is the orientation lock symbol, you can not go to landscape orientation. Tap the home button twice, swipe the task bar to the right, tap on the 'circle' icon at the left to unlock the orientation. You will then be able to view items in portrait and landscape mode.

I have set up my airprint wifi printer which works perfectly with the HP eprint app. However, when i view an email and click on the top right arrow button and select "PRINT" on my ipad nothing happens????...
Also, when im viewing websites and i find something i wish to print, same again, if i simply click on the print option at the top right of the screen nothing happens... the only way I can print is if i copy the weblink of the site page then click on my HP eprint app and paste the web link, then select print, it prints off fine.. but its it such a pain to keep copying and pasting links or screen dumping emails just to print...Just to recap, this is a collection of ports I have collected over time for people who needed this information when setting up the HP ePrint app so that they could view their email from within the app. I am certain other applications also need this information. Although lengthy, I could not find a more comprehensive place to retrieve this information. Feel free to post additional information, faulty information, or other related topics below as this is simply a collection of data and it would be practically impossible to test all of them. Thank you!
Don't forgot to say thanks by giving "Kudos" if I helped solve your problem.
When a solution is found please mark the post that solves your issue.

How to get rid of the little page window at the top right of an acrobat page
In the last 6 months or so, a little window image of the Acrobat page has started to appear in the top right corner of the page
This is a total menace as it can cover part of the text as per pic, and also covers the find tab. OK, you can x it off but I want to find a way to totally kill it. I cannot see any circumstance where the mini-window will be useful. Maybe it does have some useful functions, but I cannot think what they could be. I cannot imagine why Adobe would force this on us. Or maybe I have accidentally clicked something. HELP PLEASEThanks Sara - I have thought this might have something to do with it. But actually neither is selected (see below). Whatever is selected, it is difficult to see that the thumbnail can achieve any useful purpose! Any other ideas? It seems quite unpredictable in my system - the file I took a screenshot of to post above now has no thumbnail. While a file I opened this morning does. In my view it represents a bug in X as it only appeared after I had been using X for about 3 years, making me suspect it came in with an update. And there is no way to turn it off that I can find.

"View > Hide Toolbar" will toggle both - Toolbar and Sidebar at once,
