Windows opening beyond the bounds of the screen

When I launch any of the iWorks applications or Stickies or Preview, I am unable to view the open document on the screen unless I select the "play" option from the drop down menu.
Documents must be opening beyond the bounds of the screen.
Any suggestions anyone on how I might correct this?

Thanks for the suggestion. I tried it but still no joy. Preview and Stickies, along with the iWorks all seem to open beyond the screen. Microsoft (Word and powerpoint) and other 3rd party software (omnigraffle for example) do not seem to be affected. If I connect to a VGA I can see all the windows open but when I return to viewing documents from my laptop I am unable to see the file open before me.

I want to have 2 active windows open on the screen so I can click either one as needed, e.g. I want to have two e-mails open simultaneously on the screen

The first e-mail will contain a verification code which must be entered into the second e-mail while the first e-mail is still open.

If those emails are from different accounts then open a second Private Browsing mode window and resize both windows to make them fit next to each other if you really need to see them at the same time (it shouldn't be a problem to paste content from one tab to another tab, just hover on the tab or use "command + ~" to switch windows).
That will allow you to login to a separate windows account.

I had my IPod rebooted at a store. My 9yr old put a password on it and had to set it back to factory settings. Now can't get it to open beyond the screen with the white apple. I've tried to sync with Itunes, the it won't recognize the device. HELP!

Apple store reset my Ipod to factory setting, now can get Itunes to recognize the device. The I Pod won't turn on past the first screen with the pic of the apple on it.

Try the following:
- A reset and then connect to your computer and try to restore.
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- See if placing the iPod in Recovery Mode will allow a restore.
- The see if DFU mode will allow a restore.

- If you can't turn the iPod full off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for at least a hour try the above again
- If still not successful time for an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

Active window jumps beyond the active screen frame

Hi, I wonder if there is a trick to fix this:
I quite often see a window that I am trying to reposition on my screen, jumping up and left so that the upper part that can be grabbed is beyond the screen itself. This is annoying since there is no way to bring it back, or is there?

It's normal for links to open in the same tab as you browse if you left-click. You can Ctrl+click or middle click to open a link in a new tab. Are either of those broken?
Some sites let you use a regular left click to open a link in a new tab (example: Google search settings), and some add-ons may change link behavior. Can you check whether one of your add-ons has been disabled?
Tools > Add-ons > Extensions
Also, if you use the Ask toolbar, try disabling it and see whether that makes any difference.

When I download something from the Web, the "Downloads" window opens, but the window remains blank. Before it used to at least show the name of the file and I could open the file from the "Downloads" window. Is there a way to get this functionality back?

I'm running Windows XP which is updated to latest version (which I think might be Service Pack 3, but not positive.) Mozilla Firefox is version 5.0. I tend to use Google as my search engine so most of the stuff I download comes through sites found through Google, which is also updated.
At some time in the past (maybe a few versions ago) when I would download a file from the Web, the "Downloads" window would open and in the window would be displayed the name of the file I was downloading or had just completed downloading. I think I used to be able to then click on that file name and the file (or the installation file if needed to start the new program) would open. I am currently using Firefox 5.0 (the "About Firefox" screen says this is up to date) and when I download a file or document, the "Downloads" window appears on the screen as it always has in the past, but it remains blank, i.e., nothing appears in the downloads box. I don't remember making any configuration changes, etc., that may have caused the window to remain blank, but I could be mistaken. I know how to find the items I've downloaded (My Documents / Downloads) and can usually guess what the name of the downloaded file might be, but it used to be much easier when something (anything) showed up in the downloads window.
I'd love for someone to tell me about a simple fix for this. I'm willing to be quite embarrassed that I did something I shouldn't have.'''

In Firefox Options / Privacy be sure "Remember download history" is checked. To see all of the options on that panel, "Firefox will" must be set to "Use custom settings for history".
To find your OS information, on your Windows desktop, right-click the My Computer icon, choose Properties, under System on that small window is info about your OS.

Why won't the window show on the screen after the latest update?

When I try to open Firefox, it shows that it has a window open in the taskbar, but it will not show up on my screen.

Safari window not filling the screen when launched

I posted this question in the Safari forum and after a week of waiting and numerous bumps, it went unanswered and completely ignored so I thought I'd post it here. Basically what I am trying to do is have the Safari windows automatically fill the screen so that the scroll bar is at the *extreme* right side of the screen, but it always comes just short of that. The reason why this is important is I want to be able to make one quick swipe of my mouse to the right side of the screen and have the cursor end up over the Safari window's scroll bar. But the windows never open up like that, they open up just short of filling the screen so when I move my mouse to the side, it overshoots the scroll bar which is annoying because I have to drag it there manually every time. How do I fix this?

Here is how I want it. Notice the scroll bar with no space to its right.
But here is what it ends up doing. Notice there is now a tiny bit of space to the right of the scroll bar. This tiny space forces me to be careful with the mouse cursor and will not allow me to freely swipe the mouse cursor to the right or it will overshoot the scroll bar. Of course, I can drag the window back to the spot every time I open a new window, but that gets very annoying.

When I open Mail the screen flickers random blue and gray appeared on the screen. I took a video too. Will that happen again? Is it hardware problem? This ipad2 32GB was replaced yesterday and I think it is refurbished. Are replace product refurbished?

I got my ipad2 replaced yesterday. And this new ipad started giving me problem by crashing aps. Then I restored the ipad twice but the problem was still there. I called apple and they fixed it by doing Reset All Settings. But now I have this weird problem. When I open Mail the screen flickers random blue and gray appeared on the screen. I took a video too. Will that happen again? Is it hardware problem? This ipad2 32GB was replaced yesterday and I think it is refurbished. Are replace product refurbished?

There is no way for anyone here to know if your replacement iPad is a refurbished unit. Per Apple's replacement policy, replacements can be refurbished units. If you feel the unit is not working correctly, take it back, let them check it out and if found defective, they will replace that unit.

When a window is open and I try to go to a new bookmark or a link in an existing site, the new window opens behind the old window.

It isn't every time, and sometimes doesn't happen for a long time, then I'll go to a bookmark or toolbar link and the new window opens behind the one I was on. Example: I just opened a second window (CTRL N) and clicked on a bookmark. It opened a new window behind the one I'm on as I type this. I did the same steps again and it opened the new window in front of this one. It doesn't seem to make any difference which site I start from or go to or if I use CTRL N or let the bookmark do the opening.

This can happen if you have a tab open in the main browsing window that uses the plugin-container process (e.g. Flash).

- Quit the App by opening multi-tasking bar, and swiping the App upward to make it disappear. (For iOS 6, holding down the icon for the App for about 3-5 seconds, and then tap the red circle with the white minus sign.) Relaunch the App and try again.
- Restart the device. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
- Reset the device. (Same article as above.)
- Reset All Settings (Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings)
- Delete the App, then reinstall it.
Test the issue after each step. Make sure to quit the app as described before each followup step.

How can I get my window to fit the screen? It is too big.

All of a sudden a few days ago my window on my MacBook pro expanded and now does not fit all at one time on the screen. I must have done something but do not know what. I hope someone can help me to get the window to fill the screen so I don't have to move the window back and forth to see everything. Thanks, Quinner
