Windows Won't Fill Screen

It's not very big, but as you can see in the image below, there's a tiny dark area at the bottom of the screen which is my desktop. Is there any way to make the window go all the way down? I've tried just dragging it but it stops where it's at. I also don't want to go full screen to where the menu bar at the top goes away. I know most people won't care about this but I'm nit-picky and it kinda bothers me. Any help is appreciated.

Hi...!!
You can do one thing. Place your cursor on Safari bar having 3 coloured dots. Then drag the whole Safari window downwards which will fill up the tiny dark area at the bottom. Now you will be left with the upper tiny dark area. Now you just need to drag the upper safari window part. and Bingo..... Your problem is sorted out.....
It was quite funny though..... Hope that helps.

Safari window won't fill the 24" imac screen - accidentally did something

I accidentally did something and now the screen is more 8x10. Using the +/- buttons do not resize to full screen. I am running 10.4.11. Any ideas?

The "+" and "-" buttons aren't for resizing a window; they're for resizing text on the page. If you want to be able to "maximize" your browser window, try this:
Create a new bookmark (doesn't matter what site or page you use for that)
Choose Show All Bookmarks from the Bookmarks menu and locate that new bookmark.
Highlight the name of the bookmark and change it to "Full" or "Full Screen" or something similar.
Highlight the URL of the bookmark and change it to this:
javascript:self.moveTo(0,0);self.resizeTo(screen.availWidth,screen.availHeight);
Then restart Safari and try it out; it should work flawlessly.

Connecting Macbook to Sony Bravia 32" - Won't fill screen and not clear

I just picked up a Mini-DVI > DVI and DVI > HDMI cord today from my local Apple Store and hooked up my Macbook to my new Sony Bravia 32" HDTV. Unfortunately, I having some problems setting it up. My issues are:
- I'm not sure how to make my TV the MAIN and ONLY display. I'd like to play games like WoW and watch movies from iTunes on it with the best possible quality and resolution.
- When connected, the image doesn't fill the whole TV perfectly. It either gets cut off or has black borders. Using the TV's zoom fuction just distorts the image further and possibly cuts off the edges.
- The quality is less than what I was hoping for. Text is hard to read and pixilated and images just don't look that great. I suspect this might be because it's not filling the whole screen but I am unsure.
I'd really appreciate detailed instructions on how to deal with the software side of this since my connection is fine.

Here is a link that should answer your second question about making the TV the sole display:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=86286
As for the screen quality issue, does your TV's manual mention anything about making a computer connection? Does it say to use the VGA port or is HDMI supported for computer use? Also, do you know the TV's native resolution? If it is a 1366 x 768 native panel in the TV, then don't run it at 1920 x 1080 interlaced. That's too high. It will look best if run at it's natvie resolution.
As for the picture being either too big or too small, that is called overscan. Many newer Sony's have a setting called "Full" under the Wide Mode setting that gets rid of overscan.

Keynote won't fill screen with Apple TV AirPlay

I have an iPad and a new Apple TV (A5). I wanted to give presentations on an HDTV using the Apple TV, however the presentations don't quite fill the screen. Any way to change the aspect ratio, or at least a stretch to fill option in keynote?

I connect to Airplay Display, I select apple tv, and either mirror display or extended desktop. Doesn't matter which, both have the problem.
Then, on my imac I try to play a video and it does not work. I can even hit play on a video, let it go, and THEN turn on Airplay and it will stop playing as soon as I do.

Apple TV 2 won't fill the TV screen

My ATV 2 won't fill the entire TV screen. It just plays in a small rectangle within the entire screen. I've tried adjusting the video settings. It is a 1080p HDTV. When I set the ATV to 480 it fills the screen. When I set it to 720 or auto it does not fill the screen. Ideas?

Have you tried changing the zoom setting on your TV? Our TV's remote has a button called "P. Size" (for "picture size") which toggles through various modes like "16:9", "screen fit", "4:3", "wide", etc. If that works, be sure to set the AppleTV's mode back to auto.

Bad video card, call Apple, get a case number and return it.

Got a new monitor and web sites won't fill it up without zooming in, there are blank collumns on both sides of the screen.

I got a new monitor recently and the websites won't fill up the screen. There are columns without any images or text on both sides of the screen with the webpage centered. It's not a problem with the computer because offline things look just fine. I can zoom in to where it fits, but really don't want to have to do that every time I go to a new site. Thanks

You can use an extension to set a default font size and page zoom on web pages.

Itunes window fills screen cannot resize

Somehow iTunes fills the whole screen and I am unable to resize it so that i can use other programs while surfing my music library. I went into preferences and unchecked the fill screen box and the window stays the same and the preferences when viewed again says that iTunes fill screen box is checked off. So now everytime that I want to view another program or internet feature I have to click the fourth button on the mouse in order to access other programs. Also when trying to update my iTouch, the downloaded software maxes out and then freezes returning an error statement stating the connection has timed out.

the other question i was going to post was regarding why word, excel, powerpoint for the mac automatically start up on a restart of the computer. i have tried to find the preferences that regulate this but the problem still persists. it gets annoying to see all of the windows open up plus previous documents that have been closed prior to shutdown and/or restart. what is the shortcut that i can take to stop these programs from starting up during this process

Adobe camera raw window won't resize and can't reach buttons

When I open an image from bridge into adobe camera raw 6.1 (Photoshop CS5) on my laptop, the camera raw window fills all of the screen (top to bottom) and the buttons at the bottom of the window are below the task bar. Thus I can't open the image in photoshop except by hitting the enter key. I can't reach the open, etc buttons. The window won't resize and there are no icon/buttons in the right upper corner to go to/from full screen. When I hit the icon in the top right hand menu bar in ACR (to go to full screen size) the window then fills the whole width of the screen in addition to the height, but no matter what I do I can't get the height of the window to shrink, so that I can access the icons at the bottom of the screen. What am I missing? Thanks

Don't worry about turning aero off just yet.
There are two key first questions:
What is your screen resolution (width in pixels x height in pixels)? Right-click on desktop, choose Screen Resolution.
What setting have you chosen for the display size (Smaller, Medium, Larger) in the Display dialog? Right-click on desktop, choose Personalize, then Display.

How to open images in Fill Screen mode from Camera Raw

I am using Photoshop CS4 for Windows. I created an action that executes Fit on Screen and set the Scripts Event Manager to execute that action on the Open Document event. This works when opening a document from Photoshop.
Here are my questions:
1) After opening a raw image from Bridge in Camera Raw, when I then open the image in Photoshop, it does not run the Open Document event action to Fit on Screen. What event do I need to set the action to execute on when opening an image from Camera Raw in Photoshop?
2) I added Fit on Screen to the action by selecting Insert Menu Item from the Actions menu and then selecting View-Fit on Screen. I cannot find Fill Screen on any pull-down menu (the button found on the Hand tool bar). How can I insert the Fill Screen item (which fills the screen a little more than Fit on Screen?
3) In the Scripts Events Manager, when you select Add an Event, it says Any scriptable event can be entered here. See the Scripting Reference for the full list of Photoshop event names.. On the following Adobe webpage, I found the Adobe Photoshop CS4 Scripting Guide but I did not find a list of Photoshop event names in that document. Where can I find the list of Photoshop event names?

Thanks to anyone who can help me out.

Unable to install Windows 7! Black screen?

Unable to install Windows 7! Black screen?
Hey everyone!
Some background info:
I built my computer ~2 years ago and it worked fine for about half a year, until it crashed. Since then I've been unable to reinstall Windows and I kinda forgot about it... which sucks! So please help me get it up and running again :)
Motherboard: GigaByte Z68
Processor: Intel Core i3
HDD: Seagate Barucada 1TB (st31000524as)
OS: Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit
My problem:
When I boot from the windows cd (original), sometimes I get stuck at a black screen after "Windows is starting" or the black "loading files" screen. Sometimes it just takes a while but I eventually get to the install menu.
When I am about to chose my hdd, it says it can't install on it. I deleted all partitions, created a new one and formated it (took about 1 hour), still not able to install.
I tried booting from my GigaByte cd, and it went through some kind of install (not sure what it did, it was weird because it's actually made for backups). After I chose "reboot" I was able to install on my hdd again. But after I got to 100% i got
stuck at the black screen again! I waited for a couple hours before I had to turn it off, so I'm back where I started. :/
I always google stuff, and people said the black screen problems could be related to other drives/usb stuff connected to my pc. I only have 1 hdd and 1 usb for mouse/keyboard... I tried disconnecting it but it didnt work and also it doesnt make sense since
I need to reconnect it to click on stuff anyway...
People also said I should try booting with F8 and choose "low res", didn't work either. Other people said "connect a secondary screen", I have a hdmi screen and a rgb screen, I tried all combinations of them and nothing seemed to work...
I also have some confusion with the XHD/RAID/IDE/AHCI settings. I am only using one HDD, so I figured AHCI makes more sense for me - sine i have a SATA hdd and windows 7 64 bit.
However, when I load "Optimized System Defaults" from BIOS, it sets SATA mode to IDE...? When I reboot I get a warning screen that says the system is running in IDE mode and I should switch to AHCI for optimal performance.
How do I know if my system supports AHCI or not, what should I use?
Whenever I select IDE, and I enter Windows installation, it can't even find my hdd!
Only when I select AHCI it finds the hdd, but it won't let me install on it.
I've been strugling for DAYS, so i REALLY appreciate help. :) Also, I've tried making "boot cds/usb", and I have no experience with linux so it's really frustrating. Please don't suggest going linux unless it's really necessary. :( I only have a Knoppix
live CD, but I find the whole linux system so confusing I wasn't really able to do anything, despite several "guides" and youtube videos. I have a computer that's barely been used and a original windows CD, shouldn't I have all I need to repair my
system?
Sorry about the long post, I'll be eternally grateful if someone has any clues!

I am not sure which specific issue that is, but it definitely sounds like a hardware issue rather than a software or settings issue. Windows should not have any issues installing; if it does, that would usually point to a hardware issue of some sort.
It could even be your motherboard. Your best bet is to disconnect EVERYTHING that is not needed from the motherboard, including RAM sticks except for the least amount possible, and try installing Windows with that configuration.
Example: you need the power supply, so connect that. If you're installing from a CD/DVD, then you need a CD/DVD drive. You need at least 2 GB of RAM. You need to be able to turn on the computer, so the on/off switch needs to be connected
to the motherboard. You will need a mouse and keyboard. And so on. If this bare-minimum configuration does not work, start replacing items: use a different RAM stick, use a different mouse, use a different keyboard, etc. If, after you
do all this, it still does not work, then I would suspect that your motherboard has an issue. You can also try resetting the CMOS on your motherboard. Some motherboards have a jumper for that, and for others, simply removing the CMOS battery will
do it.
As far as IDE, AHCI, and RAID settings are concerned, this should not matter so long as whichever setting it is on when Windows is installed is the same after it is installed. For example, if it is installed using IDE, then you need to stick with IDE.
If you installed it with AHCI, then you need to stick with AHCI. Changing it after installation can make Windows not boot. There are, of course, ways around that, but it is easiest to simply be consistent.

Some windows won't display?

For some reason, some of my windows in dreamweaver will not display correctly, or much at all. For instance, when you first open dreamweaver and select "new dreamweaver site" all I get is a window that displays a few text fields and then whatever is behind that window (almost like the entire window is transparent, except when I move the window, it doesn't change to match what is behind it) My system exceeds the dreamweaver minimum requirements.
I operate on windows xp
I am running the trial version.

I have, Thank you. I kinda sorta fixed the problem, I discovered that when I move the window off of the screen, it appears correctly, annoying but I dont know what else to do.
Thanks alot for replying

Fill screen

When I output airplay to my TV screen it does not fill the screen. Look a bit like a 4:3 showing on a wide screen? Also happens with utube?
Any ideas please

Welcome to the Apple Community Badger.
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 > Audio & Video > Adjust for AirPlay overscan’ for the best setting that suits you.
