Windows XP Pro Desktop - Screen Resolution and Color Quality - After Palm 6.2 Installation for Palm TX

Recently upgraded my Palm software to 6.2. for my TX. Now when I sync to Outlook, my windows desktop reverts to lower quality screen resolution (640 x 480 pixels) and lower color quality (8 bit).
I then make the necessary display changes for my windows desktop back to higher quality screen resolution (1280 x 800 pixels) and highest color quality (32 bit). Everything is fine until I sync again or shut down the computer and restart, causing the windows desktop to revert back to the lower quality screen.
Any thoughts on possible solutions to this annoying problem.
Thank you

Hello!
First thing to do is to update the display driver for your computer. Also make sure to use 96 DPI for the DPI setting, using another setting can cause this issue too.

Windows XP Pro Desktop - Screen Resolution and Color Quality

When synchronizing my Zire after many successful and no problems the XP Pro screen resolution reverted to the lowest profile.
I can reset the resolution to the True color 1024 x 768 but after a minute or two it reverts again.
1. Reinstalled driver for Intel video on Compaq D510C motherboard and get same problems as well as corrupted looking graphics on screen.
2. Switched to a known good monitor and same problems (which I did not think was the problem but did to verify).
3. Installed new gForce5200fx graphics card and video still reverts and is corrupted looking even when in higher reset resolution.
4. Created new user to see if user profile was corrupted and still reverts and is corrupted looking even when in higher reset resolution.
Any suggestions?????

I also flashed the bios

Solaris 10 x86 console screen resolution and blank console after exiting X

Hello,
At some point my Solaris 10 machine stopped showing the console after leaving Xorg for the console login. I know the console is active because I can blindly pass the shutdown or other command and it will respond, or after waiting a few minutes will bring the GUI login back. I can see the console before the GUI login while booting but not after. I have a dual output Nvidia 6200 on a 22" LCD running Solaris 10 using the latest Nvidia drivers. I would also like to know if it possible to set the console screen resolution somehow either from the shell or from grub? I have been searching the internet for weeks about this and am unable to find a solution.
TIA,
Brett

After doing even more searching, it looks as if this is an issue with Nvidias drivers. At least similar issues on Linux and FreeBSD that I have seen. Anyone know of a fix other than reverting to much older drivers? Still cannot find any info on setting the console screen resolution, though I can't even see it at the moment unless I refrain from ever starting X again. There has to something similar to vga= that's used in Linux. Anyone?

Windows Does Not Remember Screen Resolution after restart

Hi Everyone,
I have a strange problem with Windows 8.1 Pro
My screen resolution resets to 800 x 600 everytime i restart my PC, and I will have to set my resolution again everytime I start my PC.
Any idea?
Cheers
Nelson

Hi Nelson,
Please check the display adapters on Device Manager.
It may be caused by your graphics driver.
I suggest you reinstall the latest graphics driver to check the result.

My Macbook pro desktop screen is white.

My Macbook pro desktop screen is white. I had it hooked up to my TV and it went white. Everything works except the desktop is white. The launch pad works and the top menu.

Hi Maclover222,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If you only see a white screen on your MacBook Pro, the steps in this article can help:

I'd recommend starting with these steps:

Macbook Pro Retina Screen Resolution Issues

I have just bought a retina display Macbook Pro (Early 2013) with OS X 10.8.3 Mountain Lion.
Before getting it, I did not realize what an effect it would have on the use of my existing programs, and had I known, I would have thought twice before switching from my non-Retina Macbook Pro. I have never had so many problems with a brand new computer. On my retina screen, programs such as Microsoft Office 2011, Adobe Creative Suite 5 and Acrobat Pro X run with an awful screen resolution and impossibile legibility. The pixelated graphics and image quality hurt my eyes, beyond the fact that I cannot see my lines, images and text properly in order to work with them.
In these programs, the "Open in Low Resolution" button is enabled permanatly and cannot be changed as it's option is ghosted out. I do not know how to make it look better or what to do. I cannot work using this low resolution and this issue has affected my productivity.

My 13" Macbook Pro's screen resolution is messed up.

My 13" Macbook Pro's screen resolution is off. I restarted it yesterday and it has been bad since. For best quality I am having to put it on 1024 x 768 (not stretched) which the highest, but still not as good as original and not full screen. HELP PLEASE!

After about three restarts a new higher reolution option appeared (odd) and it is now fixed.

I want to do a clean install of Windows 7 Pro on my computer and my installation of Adobe Design Premium CS3 is not functioning. I cannot start it to get in and deactivate the Creative Suite installation.

I need help with deactivation.

if you're using the same computer hardware to reinstall your cs3, you don't need to deactivate first.
but if there's a significant hardware change you can ask adobe support for an activation count reset. contact adobe support by clicking here and, when available, click 'still need help', https://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html

You can specify the resolution for exporting, for document etc but resolution of the raster objects can not be retrieved.
Color space of the raster object can be retrieved using the rasterItems : colorants or imageColorSpace properties

Use an older driver or the vga-port instead.
There are maybe some hacks, but I tried many times in vista and linux. And it's always the same, only 1280x1024.

Thanks for the reply, but I don't believe that's the problem since that topic is from 2006 and I didn't had any problems last time I instaled arch (3 months ago).

Best screen resolution and output for CBT

What would be the best screen resolution and output mode IYO for a CBT (Computer Based Training) program? We would like to do either CD or online. We are toying with either, so which do you think would be a better option for what Captivate is capable of? Thanks!

Nclarkats,
While most of our employees have similar screen resolutions, a few have larger (or smaller) set ups and since we wish to avoid horizontal and vertical scroll bars; we publish with Captivate's 800 x 600 setting. This allows us to get a bit larger imagery in place.
Whatever you choose, try and pick something and stay consistent. This is beneficial in the event you have to transfer slides between modules.
Hope that helps.

I'm running Adobe 9 pro on snow leopard and when I save or print from word for mac 14 the bottom gets cuts off

I'm running Adobe 9 pro on snow leopard and when I save or print from word for mac 14 the bottom gets cuts off. Can someone help?

Ah! You're creating a PDF out of Word through Acrobat. The cutoff is most likely being affected by the printer chosen.
When you call up the print dialogue in Word, check to see what printer is being used. If it's a typical inkjet printer, Acrobat is using the print margins of that printer as the cutoff area. Since most such printers can't print to the last inch and half or so of the paper, that's where it would be cut off.
Near the bottom, under the preview of the document, click on the Page Setup button. It doesn't really matter which printer you select here. Under Paper Size, choose Manage Custom Sizes. Under the Non-Printable Area heading, choose the same printer and set the paper size you're using.
Note that the unprintable margins for that printer will be filled in automatically. That's what's being cut off. Click the + button to create a modified version. The default will be "Untitled". Give it a new name if you want. Then set all of the margins to zero. Click OK. Now you'll have that as a choice under Paper Size. Doesn't matter that the actual printer can't use this setting since you're going to a PDF. Click OK to get back to the main Word print dialogue.
Now choose Save as Adobe PDF. It should give you an exact duplicate of what's on screen in Word since as far as Acrobat is concerned, your "printer" has no unprintable margins.

Anybody know what resolution and KBPS quality apple use in their SD movies?

I want to digitize some of my movies into the MP4 format so I can watch it on my apple tv.
this is mostly children tv (thomas tank engine and so on). problem with dvd's is that we need to change often and they get worn. children do change their mind very often.
so, a digitized version in my Apple tv would be nice.
I Use DVD FAB 5.
but when it comes to the kbps setting what should I choose?
I think that I can use the same setting as Apple them self. I bought walle movie and that was 1.1 GB and had very nice look.
anybody know what resolution and KBPS quality apple use in their SD movies?

They are generally encoded at 1500 Kbps for video and 128 Kbps for audio and a resolution of 640 x 480 depending on the aspect ratio.
