Why can't I get a full screen display on my programmes

I am not able to get a full screen display on downloads of films and iview top and bottom of screen blacked out double tap to enlarge does not work Thankyou

Did you purchase the ringtone or make it yourself by taking an excerpt from a song?
If taking an excerpt from a song, it must be 30 sec or less. Once you get the 30 sec clip, you have to create an AAC version of the clip. Open the folder with the AAC version of the clip and change the file extension to .m4r I believe. Then double click the new file and it will automatically be loaded in the "tones" folder. You can then open the "tones" folder in iTunes and drag it to your iPhone which is connected to iTunes on your computer.

Why can't I get the full amount of hard disk space when I reformat?

I have a 750 GB external Western Digital. I reformatted it using extended journaled setting. When it's all ready to go why do I only get 700 GB available as free space and not the full 750 GB? What is occupying the remaining 50 GB? I guess I could understand a gig or two that I couldn't use, but 50 GB, that's 15% of the disk!!!!
Thank you

Gets asked frequently....
500GB = 465GB too. Or 1000GB = 933GB.
Then, you will find the last inner tracks are drastically slower than the outer 1/3, too. So chop some off for performance.
699GB is 'normal.' The new WD 640GB Caviar = 599GB, great drive and seems slightly faster than the 750GB due to higher density recording.
You can build your own and choose the drive and case that meets your needs, and avoid the vendor 'tax' or WD "features" and go with a Oxford based FW/USB/eSATA cases.

Can't get a full screen display for keynote or movies.

The deck or movie only displays a smaller section on the center of the screen with a thick black border. It used to display full screen, I don't know when it changed.

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.

Why can't I get an external HDMI display after upgrading to Maverick?

I've been hunting all over for an answer to this problem. I upgraded to Maverick in the fall and recently discovered that I can no longer get a picture on an external TV via Thuderbolt + HDMI. I've used new connectors and cords. Apparently others are having similar issues after upgrading.
I've tried the SMC reset option, but it has not rectified anything. I've unchecked the "display as separate spaces" option. Nothing seems to work and I've searched all over the support community for the answer, which can be extremely daunting.

You said you have a workstation with 4 drives, not a notebook.
And you have not reformatted in years.
Just clone Mac OS X Lion (and Lion Recovery) to anotehr hard drive with Carbon Copy Cloner.
Cloning as a Backup Strategy
Or backup and erase the DRIVE, like WDxxxxx and not your "Macintosh HD" volume and restore.
Reformatting is a good idea when moving to a new OS and lot of changes to partition structure go on each time, sometimes even mid-stream of a version.

Why can't I get the full resolution on my Ultrawide monitor when connected to my MBP?

I just purchased an LG Ultrawide 29" monitor to hook up to my Macbook Pro (Mid-2010 model). The full resolution should be 2560x1080. The only cable that came with the monitor was an HDMI to HDMI cable, so I used a miniDisplayport to HDMI cable that I had. The screen popped up on the monitor, but it was stretched out, and there was a message saying it wasn't configured to the full resolution (and that I need to change it in the Display settings). The problem is there's no option in the Display settings for anything larger than the 1920x1080 standard resolution for this monitor.
I checked the manual that came with the monitor and it mentions that using an HDMI cable with a mac won't allow me to use the full resolution (or sound for that matter). It says instead I need to use a DVI-D dual link cable to get the monitor to work properly with a mac. Only problem is, this particular monitor doesn't have a DVI port on it (I think the manual was referring to a similar but possibly older version that had HDMI, Displayport and DVI ports on it). This one only has two HDMI ports and one Displayport port on it. I browse around online for people that had a similar problem, and I see a comment saying I just need to get a miniDisplayport to Displayport cable and then everything will work fine. I finally bought said cable (which a lot of places apparently don't carry), plugged everything in, and still no dice. The only resolution options for the monitor are still 1920x1080 and less.
Is this a problem with my Macbook? From everything I've looked up, my graphics card (NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M) should support it, and it says right on the packaging for the Displayport cable that it should support up to a 2560x1440 resolution.

Yeah, that's what I ended up doing. It just wasn't worth the hassle. I got a good (standard size) monitor for about half the price of the old one, so I'm not too disappointed. Thanks for your help though

Good idea. Now you can go about your day and do other things, and hopefully Apple will provide an option for full screen caller ID.

MacBook Air Full Screen Display

Why does my MacBook Air not go full screen when the display is set at 1440 x 900? I have to set the display at 1024 x 640 to get a full screen display. Thanks.

Hi forever free,
I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on the exact nature of your issue. Depending on your model of MacBook Air (post-2010), the native fullscreen resolution should be 1440 by 900 (16:10 aspect ratio) for the 13 inch and 1366 by 768 (16:9 aspect ratio) for the 11 inch.

Why do some videos opened/played from Safari only open to about a 2" square. Can't get a full screen view?

Why do some videos opened/played from Safari only open to about a 2" square. Can't get a full screen view? I have Safari 5.0.6 and QuickTime Player 7.7. Thanks

Hi, Daryl -
If you moved the G4 around to make room for the new machine, that could have jarred the processor loose. It's not unusual for that to happen to an older machine, though it usually happens to RAM or cables, not to the processor.
Years of heating and cooling can loosen a connection and cause some oxidation of the contacts; subsequent moving of the machine, coupled with just a bit of thumping or torquing of the chassis, can cause the connection to fail. Reseating the connection not only makes it secure again, it usually wipes the oxidation off of the contacts.

HT204291 Why can't I get full screen from my ipad to Apple TV

Why can't I get full screen from my ipad to Apple TV?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Mirroring won't fill the TV screen. The iPad has an aspect ratio of 4:3 and the iPhone 4S or prior an aspect ratio of 3:2, neither of these will fit exactly into a TV screen which as an aspect ratio of 16:9. The Apple TV will not zoom the mirrored image, because it may well cut off information which is situated at the top or bottom of the screen.
You may wish to try each of the settings in settings > AirPlay > Adjust for Overscan for the best setting that suits you.

As they say in the movies, "What we have here is a failure to communicate." Or, in this case, a simple problem of semantics. If you are asking if there is a QT Player setting that will "automatically" scale both height and width of your movie to the size of your monitor screen, then the answer is "no, not unless the aspect ratio of both your screen and your movie happen to be exactly the same." What you do have is:
1) Full Screen - display of movie without contol planel centered to monitor screen with non-display areas (if any) rendered as a user selectable solid color. Default size of movie area can be set using the "Prefeence" option to Half, Actual, Double, Full Screen (i.e., scaled), and Current.
2) Presentation - display of movie in "Full Screen" mode with the option to temporariy modify the default display size.
3) Half Size - movie displayed in control panel at one half the "normal" size.
4) Actual Size - movie displayed in control panel at "normal" size.
5) Double Size - movie displayed in control panel at twice the "normal" size.
6) Fit to Screen - movie displayed in control panel with height of control panel scaled to height of screen less menu bar or width of control panel scaled to width of screen depending on which dimension requires the lesser amount of scaling.
What you don't have is a "Zoom" mode in which the lesser relative dimension is scaled the the associated screen dimension with excess display area "cropped" from screen. However, if you are not a "purist" you can always "simulate" either the "zoom" option or a true "fill" screen option. To do this, simply
a) open the "Show Movie Properties" window
b) set the video track display setting shorter relative dimension to the associated monitor display dimension with "Preserve Aspect Ratio" option selected to simulate a "cropped/zoom" screen display or
c) set the height and width of the video track display setting to exactly match you monitor display setting with the "Preserve Aspect Ratio" option deselected to simulate a "fill" screen display
If you wish to preserve your movie settting for quick and easy viewing at a later time, then add the following steps:
d) select the main movie track
e) set the "Automatically Play" option under the "Presentation" tab to auto play the movie when opened
f) set the "Enter full screen" option under the "Presentation" tab to hide the menu bar when playing
g) save the movie as a reference movie in the same drive location and do not delete or move the orginal file
Now you can view the "fill" or "zoom" version of your movie whenever you wish by simply double-clicking the reference movie icon. Hope that helps.

When sending an e-mail I used to just click on contacts then click on the name or group I wanted to send the e-mail to and move it to the "To" area of the e-mail. All of a sudden I now get a full screen in "contacts" and can no longer move a name .

MacBookPro 15
OS - Yosemite
Problem area - "Contacts"
Problem - when sending an e-mail in "Mail" I used to open contacts to get an address. A small window opened, I clicked on addressee and moved the addressee name to the e-mail. Can no longer do this because I now get a full screen in Contact.
Question - how do I get back to the small window in Contact?

Mike,
Are any of your other applications going wonky, or is it just Logic?
I'm afraid I've never heard of this particular problem before, but if it were happening to me the first thing I would do is delete my "com.apple.logic.express.plist" file in Library>Preferences, then repair permissions in Disc Utility, and finally restart my computer. Then I would launch Logic and see if the problem has been corrected. It's amazing how much these two steps can accomplish.
If that doesn't resolve the issue I would launch Logic and go to Preferences>Audio Units Manager to see if all my plug-ins are properly validated.

How can I get a full screen on facetime

How can I get a full screen on FaceTime

You woul dprobably need to choose a zoom display mode on the TV.
Any screem shots / promos for mirroring I've seen have been 4:3 ratio like the iPad screen resolution.
To me this would be an obvious source of frustration to users of 16:9 TVs - unless there's an ipad 2 mode to somehow run in 16:9 not using the whole screen or not displaying the edges for mirroring, AppleTV2 may not be able to fill the screen
