View widgets in full screen

Is it possible to view widgets in full screen.  I have only been able to get the half screen presentation.  That is very cluttered and small for my older eyes.  Of course, I can click on pictures within updates and see those full screen, but I am talking about the top level facebook page for example.

Not vision impaired, just getting older.  I just do not like the distraction of having something happening on the left hand side of the screen.  This makes the facebook widget unattractive to me.  I will just continue to use the computer instead of the TV.   Maybe a future enhancement?

  • Can´t view photos in full screen after loading photos to dropbox? what to do?, can´t view photos in full screen after loading photos to dropbox? what to do?

    after loading photos to dropbox i can´t view them in full screen in iphoto ... i can only view them small ... when i click on them this sign "!" appears... do you know how to fix this????

    If you're loading photos to drop box why do you expect to see them in iPhoto?
    The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
    Remember: we cannot see your machine. There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 8 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS.  So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Basic things like :
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For instance: 'iPhoto won't export' is best explained by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
    - History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted?
    - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    - Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
    Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

  • How to view movies in full screen?

    i have a video i want to see in full screen that i made in imovie.. unfortunately when i view it in full screen.. the movie doesnt fit the screen... there are black borders around the clip. so how do i view the video in full screen?

    hey there Samirziz,
    are you wanting full screen on your Mac or your TV? is your TV 16:9 or 4:3? is your movie 16:9 or 4:3?
    4:3= almost square, old technology analog
    16:9= widescreen, newer technology ready for digital
    pillarbox = bars on side
    letterbox = bars on top & bottom
    David is right on in what he says, uultimately it will depend on you making the movie & it's DVD(if you burn it to DVD) fit your TV.
    4:3 movie > 4:3 DVD = full screen on a 4:3 TV
    4:3 movie > 4 :3 DVD =pillar box on a 16:9 TV(if you can't tweak something on your TV-like Zoom, still may cut off a bit on top & bottom)
    16:9 movie > 16 :9 DVD = full screen on a 16:9 TV
    16:9 movie > 16:9 DVD = letter box on a 4:3 TV (afaik, there's no way to tweak the TV)
    iMovie & iDVD work together well & iDVD kinda "auto detects" if your movie is 4:3 or 16:9, then opens in the appropriate format.
    good luck, hope this helps

  • Screen goes to sleep even when viewing movies in full screen mode

    Hi, I have adjusted my settings so my screen goes to sleep after 5 minutes which is ok. But it also does this when viewing movies in full screen mode.... Is this a setting somewhere? Thanx!

    Welcome to the Discussions!
    "When the computer is inactive" or "idle" means when YOU, the user, are doing nothing, neither using the keyboard nor the mouse. So you have to increase that 5 mins in Energy Saver.

  • Viewing videos in full screen or at least 2x

    I watch a lot of streaming video on Safari (I don't have a TV). CNN, Jon Stewart, etc. On a Windows PC, I am able to right click an select a zooming choice (full screen. Do I need to download IE or Netscape for MAC?
    Another question, somewhat related. Is anyone else watching Frontline PBS online and not able to use the Real Player link (the audio is fine, but the video plays more like a slide show)?
    Thanks for reading this.

    I just found an interesting apple support document that says that in mobile me, videos published by imovie and final cut etc can be viewed full screen , but ones published by aperture 3 cannot. So this implies that aperture has a problem with full screen video.... I think.
    So for now, the way I found , which is to make the move a slide show, and then view the slide show seems to be the only way to view movies in full screen in Aperture 3... But it is very odd to have to do that!....

  • Viewing time in full screen mode

    Hello, I am using iMovie '11 (version 9.0.8) and would like to view time in full screen mode, and by time I mean hours: minutes: and seconds. Is it possible to view the playhead in the scrubber bar at full screen? I put a time code in my video, but I would like to see seconds, as well as minutes and hours. Is this possible?

    I'm having the same problem with an iMac! The bizarre thing is, if I open those same movie files using Quicktime, Full screen mode works fine. iTunes used to play the movies correctly in Full Screen mode but it doesn't anymore. I am using iTunes 8.0.2.
    Anybody have any ideas???

    Don,
    Do you have iTunes installed on your laptop? If not, I think you will need it to see your laptop photos on AppleTV.
    After installation, on the menu bar go to Advanced -> Choose Photos to Share and then select the folders you want.
    In respect of printing, only a limited number of recently available printers are compatible. There are Apps which work around this, but I'm not able to recommend one.

  • Trouble viewing photos in full screen and editting

    I'm pretty sure that I uploaded some corrupted files into iPhoto. This action rendered all of my photos useless. I can't view them in full screen mode, and I can't edit them. I can see them as thumbnails though. I have them all backed up (uploaded in Picassa). I tried a whole bunch of things, including many of the things listed here (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1425139&tstart=225), but to no avail. I figured if I got rid of the corrupted files it would work, but that didn't fly either. So I took a random picture and uploaded it to a now empty iPhoto and the same problem happened. I have not had any problems with my macbook until now. Any ideas?

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
    Uploading "some corrupted files" into iPhoto will not "render all of (your) photos useless".
    This sounds like you have a damaged database file.
    Try these in order - from best option on down...
    1. Do you have an up-to-date back up? If so, try copy the library6.iphoto file from the back up to the iPhoto Library allowing it to overwrite the damaged file.
    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.
    3. If neither of these work then you'll need to create and populate a new library.
    To create and populate a new library:
    Note this will give you a working library with the same Rolls and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
    Move the iPhoto Library to the desktop
    Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
    Go into the iPhoto Library on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Roll Folders to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
    When you're sure all is well you can delete the iPhoto Library on your desktop.
    In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption.
    Regards

  • Imovie crashes when i try to view the video full screen or export it. How do i fix this?

    iMovie crashes when i try to view the project full screen and export it. How do i fix this?

    Close out of the camera app, double tap the home button and completely close out of the app.
    Then do a reset, no data loss.  Hold down the home/sleep button together until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up.
    Then check your camera roll again.

  • Bridge - How to view image in full screen resolution

    In Bridge - How to view an image in full screen resolution and not as a Preview (Space bar), like in Lightroom (F), Photoshop or ViewNX 2 ?

    The size of the Bridge Preview window will always be the absolute limit of the image display in Bridge.  Maybe I am not following you.  Sorry

  • IPhoto:  I clicked Enter Full Screen by mistake, now I can't get out of it. The button in View to exit full screen does not work.  I cannot see any other way to exit full screen.  In full screen, I cannot see my events, nor can I do any quick fixes.

    I accidentally got into Full Screen mode in iPhoto, and can't figure out how to get out of it.  The last item in View is unresponsive (Exit full Screen).  I've looked online but can't find any way to get out of iPhoto full screen--no arrows show on top right or bottom right.  I cannot find 'events' or crop photos, the only option I have is to scroll through a certain number of photos that I don't want to see.  Please, I just want to get out of Full screen mode.  Please help.  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.

  • Can only view Mail in full-screen mode

    After installing Yosemite, I can only view the main Mail window in Full Screen mode, unless I check "Classic View" in Preferences. Classic view does not help much, because it does not show the preview, which is essential to me. If I exit fullscreen mode, the minimized window appears for a split-second and then disappears down the left bottom corner of the screen and you cannot find it anywhere. The only way to see anything again is to go to Mail - View - Full Screen. Any help is much appreciated.

  • Possible to view quicktime in full screen on external monitor?

    Hey All!
    Im wondering if there is any way to view quicktime movies in full screen (or use front row for that matter) on an external desktop set up us as an extended desktop (as opposed to mirror). This seems like quite a dumb thing to not be able to do.

    This is a problem for most software on the mac, especially games. My experience has been most software uses the primary - in this case the macbook lcd - as its display monitor. There are a few ways to fudge it to force it on another screen, but quite frankly I find that the only way to use a macbook pro and external monitor is with the lid closed.
    This is generally the best solution as the menu bar is always stuck on the primary anyway.
    To use the macbook closed simply wake the computer from sleep with an external keyboard or mouse the laptop and the primary will now be the external monitor.
    The only real downside is how do I now use the isight????
