Why did my screen size just default to 800 x 600?

Last evening I ran 'Check For Updates' and after a Adobe Reader update my screen reverted to 800 by 600. I don't write down what settings I use, I simply have been using whatever is comfortable. Now I cannot find it. I may have caused the default setting through an erroneous keystroke, but I'm not sure. How do I find the settings that I had say 24 or 36 hours ago and revert back to that screen size?
Thank you for any help!

Go into your system preferences and click on displays then make sure 1,920 x1,200 is selected.

Why did my screen crack while charging? It hasn't been dropped, every time I charge it a new crack appears I'm tired of this it's only a year old!

Why did my screen crack while charging? It hasn't been dropped, every time I charge it a new crack appears I'm tired of this it's only a year old! If its not covered under warranty never again will I go apple I've had nothing but issues so far.

We can't answer that. Maybe the battery is bad and is swelling inside the phone. Maybe someone else dropped it and didn't tell you about it.
Make an appointment at the genius bar and see what they say.
If it's over a year old, then it's not covered under warranty.

After installing Aperture and leaving photos in iPhoto library, why did iphoto library size almost double?

I installed Aperture and chose to leave all my images in the iPhoto library until I became more comfortable/familiar with Aperture.
I was looking at my hard drive space and see that the available space went way down. In Finder, the Aperture library.ap library is 17.97 gb and the iPhoto library is 122.75 gb.
When I open iPhoto, it says that it contains 19349 images/87 gb.
What happened? Is that extra size related to the Aperture referencing the images? Should I delete and start over, and move all the images into Aperture so that they are managed there?
I'm just figuring my way around Aperture, and I'm trying not to over-think the organizational differences, but this size discrepancy seems a bit too much.

I wish I had more info for this but I'm stumped. As I said there is no reason Aperture would increase the iPhoto library size by importing iPhoto's library.
BTW how did you do the import, that might shed some light on the problem.
The image count between the backup and the live iPhoto libraries seems fairly consistent so why the jump in size I can't say. And as for the increase in the number of images in Aperture, you started with an empty Aperture library, correct? And did you import anything directly into Aperture since you did the iPhoto import?
I'm still a little confused on the whole thing where Aperture shows both original and edited versions of an image, and some show both RAW & JPEG versions of an image,
Well Aperture really doesn't show both the original and edited versions, all you ever see are the versions unless you specifically ask to see the master. When you import an image into Aperture a version of the master is automatically made and displayed. Because at this point the version is no different then the master (you haven't made any adjustments to it yet) the version looks exactly like the master but it is the version you are seeing.
As for the RAW & JPG thing, if you shoot both RAW + JPG's in your camera when you import them you have the choice of which to make the master or to make each one a master. Not sure if that is what you are referring to.
I'm wondering whether I would have been better off just moving the whole iPhoto library into Aperture at the beginning, and deleting the iPhoto library.
That is definitly one option and the option most users who switch eventually make. You're not going to want to have both programs handeling your photos. But you should probably hold off until you;re more omfortable with Aperture and make sure you have a good backup of the iPhoto library before you do anything.
Remember when you import the iPhoto library into Aperture you're only choice is to copy the images not move them. This is done so that you can make sure all went OK before doing anything with iPhoto.
If you have the room you could try bringing in the iPhoto library backup, and trying the import again into a new empty Aperture library.

Why did the "custom" size option disappear from list when creating a PDF in Photoshop?

For my job, I must have the custom option available to me in Photoshop. I'm currently using CS4 and have been for years without a problem. Yesterday "custom" option from the choose size list disappeared, along with several other options (that I don't use). I have shut down the program and restarted. I've shut down the computer - even over night - and it is still gone. Why did this happen and how do I get this very important tool back?

This one. It only appears once a download has begun.

Xrandr why xorg virtual screen size limitation to 2048 x 2048 for i945

Hi i am wondering why has i945 2048x2048 Virtual screen size limitation (with active DRI) ....why i can't choose 4096 x 1024, because 4096 x 1024 = 2048 x 2048 it must consume same amount of video memory! Is there any patch, workaround or something, which will allow me to use dualhead for 1280x800 and 1920x1080 displays left/right of each other?

It's a hardware limit in the chip..
They seem to be working on a workaround but I wouldn't bet on it (http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10479).

My Uh-oh... Why did my screen change to crazy colors for a moment? (see pic)

This seems very ominous.... What does it mean? I don't think I did anything unusual -- it just happened all of a sudden. Fortunately, it was temporary. I shut the case for a moment, and when I reopened it, the screen was back to normal. I don't think the computer froze up while it was like this, although I can't remember for sure.... Note that it's not just my Safari window that went wonky, it was the entire screen.

Why did my screen shrink?

I have a macbook Air 0S X and my screen has suddenly shrunk as well as all the fonts. I have tried changing the font on View in Finder which increases the font size of the icons on the desk top but not on the tool bar and obviously it doesnt increase the screen size.

Move the mouse pointer to the right bottom corner of the window. When the pointer turns into a double arrow,
drag it outward to enlarge the window to the size you want.
Best.

Why did my iPhone 4S just shut off and now it won't turn back on?

Okay, so last night I was using my phone and the battery got to about 8% last time I checked. Then I put it in my pocket and a little while later I tried to turn it on with the home button (because my lock button has somehow gotten jammed into the phone) but nothing happened. It didn't even show the charge battery sign or anything. So I plugged it up, and still nothing has worked. Today, it is still messed up and won't turn on and it's really frustrating me. My mom told me that I don't have insurance on my phone and it has been jailbroken before. Is there anything I can do for it? My 2 year contract with Verizon is up on August 12th. Can I just take it to them and have them look at it and replace it for free?

Hello there, Golf103.
For the issue of not powering on, the following Knowledge Base article has a few good pointers to try:
iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2802
Specifically:
Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
After at least 15 minutes, if:
The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
If the display turns on, go to step 4.
If the display remains black, go to next step.
Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,

Why did my new ipod just erase completly?

I have a new video iPod and after about 2 months of use, I connected it to my Power Book and Itunes told me it couldn't read the contents of the ipod and that I needed to restore to factory settings. Then when I disconected the ipod...all the songs (weeks of work) were gone. I had to restore it to get iTunes to recognize it. I have no idea what I did or why this happened. Since I can't archive my songs (no space) what do I do to prevent this in the future? I don't know what I want to bother...after all this work it can just erase everything!

I would recommend loking here. Though i havent had this problem. It might be good to look here first off.

Why did my screen went black while on FB? Now it will turn on or re-boot, Why did my screen went black while on FB? Now it will turn on or re-boot

My phone was working fine this A.M. and while I was on FB page it went black. I have tried turning it on and re-boot and nothing, just a black screen. Can you help me. The nearest Apple store is 2.5 hours away. Thank you

Plug your device into the original charger & block in a wall outlet and leave it alone for a couple of hours. Then, while it is still plugged in, restart it by holding down the home button and the power button for 10-15 seconds until you see the Apple, then let go.

Why did the screen on my MacBook Pro turn black and ask me to hold down the power button to restart and then when I restarted it. ALL the work i had done was gone???

How do I get back what I lost. When I was forced to shut down my computer?

None of us knows why your screen turned black - it's the most serious form of crash, and yes, almost all the changes that you didn't save are lost.
An exception are the audio recordings - they should still sit in the project package of your song. Locate the project in the Finder, ctrl-click it and select "Show package content". The Media folder will contain all your recordings.
