Using Finder To Display Properly

New to MAC OS, I am using finder in column view which I do like, but it seems that I have to always adjust the width of the column to read it. Is there a way that the width can adjust to the content on its own?

Yes, In column view, go to the bottom of the first column border where you see to vertical stripes. (II) Right click on this and you'll see options to "Right size" this column etc. This options will stick whenever Finder is opened again. You can manually adjust the columns there as well.
Regards

    What Mac model do you have? You might be able to upgrade the OS to Tiger 10.4 or Leopard 10.5.
    Even browsers for Tiger 10.4 will get the update message.
    You could try a newer browser than Safari, which is obsolete, by downloading Firefox v2.0.0.20 at http://www.oldapps.com/mac/firefox.php

  • View/Resolution/Font is incredibly small resulting in web pages not displaying properly (Facebook) & I can not find internet tools options or compatibility view otions

    I've tried different things to adjust this problem on my laptop, but nothing is working. I uninstalled firefox because this was very irritating. I just reinstalled after being away for 2months and the problem still exists. My laptop settings are for normal display and font sizes and everything is normal when I use internet explorer, but when I use firefox...everything shrinks. When I'm on facebook using apps...it gets even smaller and app screens will not display properly. There is no internet options or compatibility view settings on this new firefox that I can find and I'm out of ideas on how to fix this.

    See this: <br />
    https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Page+Zoom
    The Firefox Page Zoom feature does a domain by domain level of saving the users preferred zoom level settings, there is no default Page Zoom level setting in Firefox.
    Try the Default FullZoom Level extension: <br />

  • Lately pdf files from the Web do not display properly; what is wrong and how can I fix it so I don't have to use IE?

    I am a professor and frequently need to open pdfs of academic journal articles from electronic databases. Within the last two or three weeks, when I try to do this using Firefox, only the first page of the pdf displays and the rest are blank. In addition, a bar appears across the top with the message "This pdf file may not display properly." So I have had to switch to Internet Explorer to open the files and do my research. What is going on and how can I fix it so I can open pdf files from the Web in Firefox and have them display properly?

    My question is simple - why would you put an application in production that has a lot of bugs? To replace a good and steady Adobe product? My customers will believe that I put a pathetic fallible form online. They are not sophisticated on computers so I just tell them to use IE. Ugh
    I must agree with pgwebgirl!

  • I recently lost my iPod and ive been using find my iPhone to send messages to it, my email instantly tells me that it had been displayed or it suonded off however it doesn't find it's current location. you guys think this app actually works??

    i recently lost my 3rd Gen iPod and ive been using find my iPhone to send messages to it, my email then instantly tells me that it had been displayed or it suonded off however it doesn't find the iPod's current location. you guys think this app actually works? i feel like my alerts are just bouncing back at me. please help. Thanks!

    ... AFAIC Location Services is a joke.
    With both devices sitting side by side on my kitchen table, Location Services has NEVER shown the devices to be any where close to each other, and at times Location Services has been as much as a 1/4 of a mile off between the two devices.
    Your iPod Touch has no GPS receiver so determining its location relies upon wireless routers whose location is known. Its "location" is actually that of a wireless router. Your iPhone 4 can use GPS, cellular triangulation, and Wi-Fi. One would think GPS would be most accurate but urban areas have a greater density of cells and GPS signals are easily obstructed so cellular triangulation is often more accurate.
    Therefore the two devices' locations can be expected to be different. Differences of a quarter mile are easily explained if you understand how location services works: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1975
    Skyhook Wireless (I think Apple uses its own database now): http://www.skyhookwireless.com/howitworks/
    Location Services is not a "joke"; its intended use is for basic navigation and for such applications as determining where the nearest restaurant is. It cannot tell you that your iPod is under the couch cushions and that your iPhone is in the car.

  • How do I get an XY Chart to display properly while using embedded loop

    s to periodically read multiple channels of similar data? (multi-Y versus specified time) The plot just becomes a point or a single plot of all values taken at one scanning of all channels. I want multiple plots over time updated at the time of scanning.I have also stored my data in a daily text file that is tab delimited. The text files consists of a row of text column headers, a blank row and then rows of data. The data rows are mixed data types. The first column is a date/time such as Mar 1, 2002 12:01 pm. The remaining columns are numeric data. I can't seem to get my data to plot properly in an XY chart from memory and am having problems parsing the data with mixed data types in the data r
    ows. The format I am using works great for viewing the history files in Excel.
    When I plot the data, I either get a single point or a a series of points for a single reading of all channels or I get a line connecting all data for that single scan reading. What am I doing wrong? At this point, I don't care if I read the data from the file to plot it or if I can just get Labview to plot correctly as the data is gathered without going to the history file.
    As noted in the summary question, I have embedded loops in my applicaiton. I have a while-loop that determines the scan rate and keeps the program running until it is turned off. Inside of that, I have a for-loop (in a subVI) which scans all my data channels.
    Thanks for your help.

    s to periodically read multiple channels of similar data? (multi-Y versus specified time) The plot just becomes a point or a single plot of all values taken at one scanning of all channels. I want multiple plots over time updated at the time of scanning.XY plots expect a cluster containing two 1D arrays for the X and Y
    coordinates of the individual points. If you want multiple plots you can
    supply an array of these clusters but you have to resupply the "x" array
    for each of them.
    Hope that helps,

  • After ejecting a disk plugged into the USB port using Finder, I am now getting "The disk was not properly ejected" message.  This didn't used to happen.  How can this be corrected?

    After ejecting a disk plugged into the USB port using Finder, I am now getting "The disk was not properly ejected" message.  This didn't used to happen.  How can this be corrected?

    When you right (control) click on the disk and click eject "disk name", do you pull it immeadiatly or wait a few seconds for it to unmount? Try waiting and see if you get the same message. If you do, when the disk is connected go to applications/utilities/disk utility, after opening DU, select the volume in question from the left side bar and try a permissions repair, you may also run verify disk and see if it comes up with any errors (they will be in red)

  • When using 2 monitors, Finder always displays on primary monitor even after dragging to 2nd monitor.

    How can I set Finder to display to 2nd monitor.  I drag it to the second monitor, but it still display on primary monitor when next opened.

    Thank you for your reply. No other program behaves this way, even PhotoShop CS4. It is related to how the program handles OS events.
    It is probably a problem with the Windows WM_GETMINMAXINFO and WM_SIZE handlers. My guess is that program stores the maximized size (and it always fills the screen at start-up) and it query to see if it is dragged to a larger screen.
    Of course, this theory doesn't address the disappearing program behavior when maximized on the secondary monitor. Since I don't have another OS, I cannot check if it is Vista related or Windows related. Because of the difference in architecture, I'd be surprised if it happened on a Mac, too.

  • Banking web site after login fails to display properly and says I need to have CSS enabled. Can't find how to do that.

    Running FF 5.0 on Win XP Pro. Several web sites stopped displaying properly overnight without a computer shutdown or FF shutdown. One of the sites is a banking site which displayed normally until after login when it failed to display and there was a message saying best viewed with CSS turned on. I've restarted both FF and then the computer and FF to no avail. Tried both No Style and Basic Style Views with no change. Did not do a power off full computer shutdown and restart yet. Has only happened in FF 5.0. Never happened in previous versions.

  • Images not displayed properly

    [Migrated from the Syclo Resource Center]
    prashanthi_vangala   01/03/2012 06:44,
    Hi,I am working on Agentry 5.4.0I have a list screen where for one of the columns I have a rule to display images ( I use checked and unchecked images ). Earlier the images were getting displayed properly on the ATE but  it is not working now and I did not make any changes to the image properties then.But after this, I tried couple of things with the image properties to make it work, like when I do not use any mask colour the image does not get displayed but when i use any maks colour the image gets displayed but its completely blacked out ( and thus for checked image, cannot see the check mark and its completely blacked out ).I face same issue with the login image as well. I added a new Image ( Logo ) to my App for the login Screen, but even this image does not appear on the login screen.
    I also tried deleting the Dev folder and re-publishing, but even this does not work.

    Try deleting the Application directory under your development server where the images reside and publish again.
      Completely clear your ATE and transmit again from scratch.
      Also, what mask color are you using?
      Try using a green hugh and not black or white for the mask.

    Is it just the ATE, or do you have the same problems using the WIn32 or PPC clients?

    prashanthi_vangala   01/04/2012 06:21
    Hi Jason,Behaviour in ATE:I have changed the image now and tested with the new image . Now, its behaving strangely:When I do a sync after publishing or a reset of ATE; I see the new image properly displayed on the screen but when I leave the screen and come back to the same screen again, the new image is getting replaced by the old image ( atleast the old image is not displayed properly, it appears like a black square box..and because of the same issue I had with this image I switched to the new image ). Behaviour in Win32 Client:When I tested with the client, I see  the new image properly for the first time and when i leave the screen and come back the image disappears..This is the behaviour in client.
    Please suggest.
    -Prashanthi
    Jason Latko   01/09/2012 11:35
    Prashanthi,What did you use to create these images?
      They are simple bitmaps I assume?
      Try creating some very simple images using Microsoft Paint, then set a mask of green in Agentry.
      Your problem sounds familiar, but I can't find a matching bug in our database.
      Maybe someone else has experienced this?
      You could also try upgrading to a newer version of Agentry to see if the problem goes away.

    Hi Jason,
    Thank you for the reply.
    But strangely, from past few days I see that the image is working fine again.
    But kept this topic open because it was wierd, that the image is working correctly again without making any major change. What I did was to just write the rule again which calls the image ( though i did this before and did not work then but worked now ) and to observe the image behaviour for few days.But it seems like it is fine now.
    Thanks and Regards,Prashanthi

  • Fonts not displaying properly in PDFs in Preview

    When I open a PDF in Preview, fonts are either substituted, or the text doesn't display at all.
    PDFs display properly in Adobe Acrobat, however.
    I've tried deleting Preview's preferences, to no avail. Any clues?

    This is a constant problem for us too (on our new Leopard only machines), any program that uses the OS to display PDFs will keep dropping type.
    This means the finder, preview, keynote and mail applications. Our placed PDFs in keynote slides don't show type. In finder windows, the type in pdfs (the icon) is sporadic at best, in mail and entourage the type on pdfs in email is also sporadic. Preview itself is completely hot or miss. But open the same pdf in acrobat and viola, perfect.
    Clearing the font caches and restarting is only a temporary fix.
    This is an inexcusable bug that makes doing professional design work (the sole reason we have macs) extremely difficult. I wish we had not upgraded any of our computers.

  • IGoogle doesn't display properly

    Hello all,
    Yesterday, all was fine. Today, my iGoogle page won't display properly (running Safari - OSX 10.3.9 Panther). Get a notice that: 'Home tab has been sent. Sending failed.' Brother Mac running Panther has same problem. Page displays properly running Firefox, and also running Safari - OSX 10.4.11 Tiger.
    Has anyone else this problem? Is this just another sign that Panther is getting old? (Google Mapping quit working about a month ago.)
    Sniff..... The obits are already working overtime this month ..... Jon

    Hello Surfcat and all,
    Thanx for all the updates. Whenever the Mac goes on the fritz, the first thing I try to do is find out if it's happening to everybody or just to me. It would seem that I'm not alone, so I guess I feel better.
    It's nice to know your iGoogle started working again, even if it subsequently quit. Mine has remained "hors de combat", without so much as a brief reprieve.
    FWIW, one of my 'extra' Macs (they get lonesome, you know) - running Safari 3.1.1 in OSX 10.4.11 - displays properly (mostly), with just one or two small anomalies.
    iGoogle and Firefox continue to work properly on both.
    It's easy to get frustrated and angry, and ask, "Don't they care?". I would guess they do care, but gremlins have a habit of being easier to discover than to oust, and I'm just hoping somebody will gain some insight into what the problem is and let the rest of us know about it.
    This has not been my week: first, iGoogle; then the spam filter on my eMail (Eudora)(does anybody else still use that?) quits working and I am getting litterally hundreds of ads for Viagra; and then the battery on my FIOS decides to expire and starts beeping - finally find the service number for that, get somebody on the phone, find out the battery can only be ordered by phone, only from the one company, only with a credit card, finally get two batteries in one box for twice the quoted price, spend hours on the phone trying to get that straightened out, get a sweet voice (Columbian) from somewhere in Georgia who tells me everything is all right, the credit will be issued immediately as well as the address label to return the extra battery.... needless to say, nothing has happened.
    I swear I'm going back to writing letters, and remembering when A T & T telephone service was quick, courteous, efficient, and the envy of the civilised world.
    Bah! Humbug! ..... Jon

  • Servlet output not displayed properly in Internet Explorer

    Hi All,
    I'm developing a servlet which uploads a file. After the servlet parses the request body, it stores the file contents as a binary string in the database. While displaying the contents of the attached file, the IE(Internet Explorer) is ignoring all the newlines and spaces. IThe same uploaded file when viewed through Firefox browser is being displayed properly. I've added some debug statements to print the filecontent before sending it to servlet output stream. They look exactly as they were in the uploaded file. The MIME type is application/octet-stream.
    I've also made the response to accept "ISO-8859-1" and "UTF-8" charsets, yet the IE is not rendering the file contents properly. The code looks like this,
    response.setContentType("text/html; charset= ISO-8859-1, UTF-8");
    byte[] buff = attachment.getAttachObject();
    OutputStream out = response.getOutputStream();
    out.write(buff);
    out.close();
    I've tried using PrintWriter also. I've tried changing the content types, character encodings of request and response objects, still couldn't resolve the issue. What really baffles me is that when it's displaying properly in Firefox, why can't it render properly in IE? I'm using Win XP SP2, and IE version is 6.0.29. The content which is being sent to the output stream contains newline and space characters, but they are not displayed in the browser. Did any one face this sort of issue? Your help is highly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Tarun.

    Hi,
    Thanks for looking into the issue. Let me tell you that I've tried keeping various content-types like text/plain, text/xml etc, but in none of those cases the IE rendered the output properly. But with the same content-type i.e text/html or text/plain, Firefox is able to render the file content properly. I've tried a brutal force approach like below,
    response.setContentType("text/plain");
    PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();
    String str = new String(attachment.getAttachObject());
    char[] buff = str.toCharArray();
    for(i=0;i< buff.length; i++)
    int n = (int)buff;
    if(n == 10)
    out.println();
    else
    out.print(buff[i]);
    out.close();
    I was trying to print a newline whenever I find a newline character in the file content. Even this didn't work. Please suggest me some way to get rid of this problem.
