Zoom behaving in new unexpected manner

I don't know if I accidentally hit some perfect combo of keystrokes to change how my MBP zooms, but it is different today than yesterday. I'll do my best to explain. And there are a few different things going on.
1. It used to be that a little circle with a + or - in it would appear to the left of the Bookmark star in the far right of the URL are. It is no longer there.
2. As much as a page's design would allow, when I zoomed in, a page would act responsively, as in, it would adjust its display, accounting for both the zoom factor and the size of my screen. That is no longer happening. Now, the page just zooms in like I'm looking through a magnifying glass. This is the most annoying and discouraging feature.
Here is the normal view:
And here's the same screen zoomed in, not that much:
3. It no longer shrinks or zooms in to less than 100%.
I am at a loss. As I stated, perhaps I hit some keys in the perfect manner to change how my Zoom is working. But I have no idea how to fix and it and would love to hear what the Apple community can offer.
And no, I have not yet upgraded to OS Yosemite for a number of reasons I'm happy to explain if you really want to know. But, I find it hard to believe that my zoom features would change on my just because I haven't upgraded.
Thanks for your input! The new zoom behaviors are not conducive to how I work.

Hi Community,
I'm still stumped about this zoom issue. Anyone?

  • Why is the keyboard brightness of my new macbook pro retina is behaving in an opposite manner in low light

    I racently bought a 13'' macbook pro with retina display (late 2013) and everything works fine with the exeption of the keyboard brightness. when I chose the adjust function in low light it suppose to increase the brightness of the keyboard during dim light, however, it's doing quite the opposite and the brightness is dicreasing making it harder to see the letters, how can I fix this problem?

    Hi BobRz, you are probably talking about the screen display which normaly dims during low light conditions, and that's true. but my concern is the keyboard brightness, it suppose to increase in low light conditions, but instead it dims to the point that i can no longer see the letters on the keyboard. I have viewed a youtube video about the normal adustment function, and mine is doing the opposite

    How can I keep the zoom in ratio in newly opened tabs?

    Morning Igor and welcome to the forum.
    I assume that you are talking about enabling the tabs in the preferences of safari:
    Preferences, tabs, open new windows in tabs (I believe this is how it is written.. not in front of my mac).

  • Can't use pan zoom overlay in new document?

    I can create a pan and zoom overlay in an old file but when I create a new file it doesn't give me the options to create the pan & zoom the options are greyed out. I tried copying the working file into a new file and it doesn't work? I can add a new page in the old document and create a pan and zoom overlay but nothing outside of that file?

    CMYK can only show saturated cyans, magentas, and yellows.
    It can't reproduce saturated reds, greens, or blues.
    HSB values are relative to RGB.
    LAB values would similarly clip in CMYK because they can be well outside the CMYK gamut.
    Yes, I suspect you just missed that previously.

  • CS 5 zoom troubles on new Imac.

    no major news thus far. send the computer in and let them change out a few things or perhaps offer a replacement if they are so inclined. mine had only the logic board changes (and the problem resurfaced) but others have had the motion sensor, heat sink, bezel etc changed out. best of luck.

  • RH8 table lines not behaving in new style

    We want our table style to be solid black lines, 1 pt in width, 3 pts padding all around.  The new default in RH8 is the classic HTML style instead of the 1 pt black lines from RH7...! 
    So I created a style for Tables in my custom style sheet and even though I select 'all borders' in the drop down with black 1pt lines I only seem to be affecting the table border, not the cells.  ??
    When I try selecting Horizontal or Vertical borders, I lose lines...not gain them.  How do I set this for all cell borders/table boarders and make it work?
    Thank you very much!

    Just a thought...which may or may not help.
    Have you tried using the "SimpleGridBlack" table template that comes with RH8? If you haven't already, you can apply it via Table Styles. Be sure to click Clean Table Inline Formatting to get rid of preexisting definitions. To get the results you describe, I had to manually apply this style to each table when converting from RH7 (a huge, albeit mindless, pain), but once that's done, you can reformat all tables on the fly simply by updating the Table Style definition.

  • Application behaving in a inconsistent manner

    Today i have faced a very strange problem. The view which was running properly with all the UI components enable before was suddenly some of the UI components are coming not editable automatically when i run the application.
    Did someone has faced this kind of problem before...???
    if so any solution for it at the earliest.

    Without more information, I see no chance to help. One reason might be that the backend cannot be accessed and no model can be created. The UI elements would be displayed read-only in this case.

  • Final Cut Pro X File Management Issues

    I have several issues
    1. Does anyone know if it is possible to import from camera to the standard Mac file system?  I can't see a way to avoid importing media in the FCP library and I definitely DON"T want any of my media files in the FCP library.
    2. Also I know I can copy the media files out of FCP back into the file system but I am not sure how to delete the FCP copy and re-point everything to the media I have stored in a proper file structure on a specific media disk.
    3. It doesn't seem to be possible to have FCP default new libraries to a media drive - it only wants to create them on the boot drive and the library has to be moved manually.  Am I missing something?
    4. Backup is an issue now - it looks like a change to any component within a library will trigger a backup of the whole library - it certainly does with the backup software I am using, and who knows what Time Machine does with FCP libraries... (but Time Machine DOES appear to delete files without notice when it runs out of space, so it is not suitable for any environment where permanent data retention is an issue - so beware...)
    ps: don't EVER use the "move to library" function.  If it crashes you won't get a reason, you can't undo or recover, and the originals may be deleted even though the media never made it to the other library.  This is not good...

    Hi Tom:  It was "Move Event to Library" that crashed, deleting the media from the originating library but not copying it to the new library.
    I lot of my issues are down to lack of familiarity with the new interface after migrating from the old Final Cut; manuals which are incomplete or in error; courseware created in earlier versions of Pro X and which have not been updated, and what I regard as counter-intuituive defaults and assumptions by the Apple development team.  I spend a lot of time searching for answers:  For instance I spent at least an hour searching in the manual and on the net for a way to extract or move the media from an FCP library.  I came up with nothing.  It would never have occurred to me to search for the term "consolidate".
    Another thing that caused me an issue was that I copied a library from one drive to the other to create a backup before I started trying to regularise the media locations in the original library.  I changed the name of the backed up library in file manager.  When I open it, FCP still uses the old name - hence a library which is opened on one disk and appears to point to data on another.  In fact I hadn't noticed that there were two libraries of the same name open at the same time in FCP - the apparently duplicated library was in fact the backup library on the other disk which was renamed in file manager but not in FCP.
    In iTunes and Aperture, which both use this bundled library approach, you can only open one library at a time.  FCP is different - and I have no problem with this, but any user familiar with the other products would assume, as I did, that FCP worked the same way.  That it does not gives rise to the possibility of confusion.
    FCP is a very complex piece of software.  That means it is impossible to make it easy for a first timer to understand - an experienced Final Cut user has to unlearn as much as he or she has to learn - and all this places much greater reliance on the manuals.  The writers of the manuals need to try and put themselves in the heads of their users and make sure that their TOC, Index and terminology corresponds to the thinking of the user - not the new terms they have created for the new version (e.g.: "consolidate media" - which means extract media from the library and move it into the file system, but who would know?)
    In an environment where the file sizes are enormous; a library may contain several hundred clips and audio tracks organised in various events and projects; FCP can crash and "disappear" media; the manual is hard to search and the software behaves in an unexpected manner (library names in FCP do not necessarily correspond to the actual name of the library on disk and multiple copies of a library can all be open at the same time, with the same name) this all creates a great deal of stress.  One mistake and a great deal of work can be lost irretrievably.
    However, with your advice, I have consolidated the media files from my largest library and confirmed that the library holds only the metadata now.  However, the new file organisation is unusable, so I will now need to change the file names and reorganise them into subfolders that make sense to me - I guess I will find out if this breaks FCP's links.  At the same time I have to figure out which files in the original file structure correspond to the newly extracted files so that I only have a single set.
    My big mistake was to copy the files into the library in the first place.  This is the default, and also recommended on the Lynda courseware (which was created on an earlier version of FCP).  Since most of my existing files were imported in the old version of FCP prior to the upgrade (so already on disk), this meant creating duplicates of all files initially. However, all the newer files are only in the libraries and not in the file system - reconciling this now is tricky.   Since I retrieve SD cards on my notebook in the field and then copy to my Mac Pro, some of the new files have ended up in the file system and not in the library.  I am yet to find out whether FCP will automatically pick up new files added directly to the file system, or whether they have to be "imported" through FCP before FCP can see them.
    The overhead of all this duplication is enormous and the inconsistencies tricky, and it is only now that I understand better how FCP Pro X works (and that it can lose stuff) that I now realise I have to undo all of this and move the media back into file manager and out of the libraries.
    If you have to transition to a new, and radically different, version in the middle of a project you really need to understand all the implications.  I did not.  And now that I do, it is difficult, stressful and time consuming to sort out.
    If I were able to go back and give myself some advice it would be to ignore the defaults, create logical and sensible file structures for all your media, keep all media out of the libraries and use the file structure to force FCP to organise your clips in a logical manner so that you don't then have to go through and laboriously assign keywords to organise them in FCP.
    I don't know if the way I work is very different to other film-makers.  This is a doco - typically around 5% of what is shot will make it into the final program, and I double that because I use three cameras a lot of the time.  That's about 40 hours of HD plus WAV audio files.  Some of the clips are an hour in length and impossible to synch between the cameras until they are chopped up and new combined clips created - this is very laborious!  An hour of HDD is about 400GB (more if I shoot raw) - so there will be about 2TB of data associated with this doco by the time I finish shooting.  In an interview I record a separate audio track - and I generally use this as the master track since it is the only clip which can be guaranteed to run for the full duration.  But FCP Pro X assumes that the master track will be a video file and it is not possible to add an audio file to the timeline first.  I found a workaround - but, again, I am fighting FCP and the developer's preconceived ideas about how people might use this software.
    Apart from the doco itself various other projects use the same media - but I don't want these projects cluttering up the doco library which is already cluttered enough.  If the media is in the library I have to copy clips to other libraries for these other projects, leading to more duplication.  Its another reason to move the media out of the library and another indication that FCP was not really designed for large projects.
    Even just within a single library, file management is unsuited to the volume of files I use.  For reasons known only to themselves, the FCP developers have used a very specific view of the file organisation - and its not the view I use in file manager (which is the column view).  That makes using the file management in FCP very cumbersome - but its essential if you have a large number of clips.  My smallest library takes 30 minutes to copy from one Thunderbolt2 disk to another, so creating a backup before changing things in a library is not a trivial event.
    Also, the keyword process is clumsy and, I think, poorly conceived but it is the only way to organise clips if you haven't created a file structure prior to import.  I haven't yet figured out how to erase the keywords I used for one event so that I can reassign the keywords for use in another event.  But I assume that means that if I go back to the first event, I will have to put all the keywords back in - or ignore the shortcut keys and type them manually (which is necessary for much of the time anyway because there are only 9 - a good indication of the size of the projects for which this software was designed).  Also, oddly, there is no shortcut key that I can find for turning on/off the keyword window - which is annoying because it takes up a lot of screen real estate).  It is issues like this that leave the impression that FCP has been conceived as a kind of iMovie + and that it just isn't architected for real-world proper film making.  It can be bent to that, and it has some nice features, but I find myself fighting it a lot of the time.
    After all of this I can't find a reason why Apple would create library "files" anyway.  What advantage does this provide over the standard file system?  What are the implications for backups?  (If you are backing up incrementally only the components within a library then how can you be sure any version of the actual library file is current?  And if not, then is any minor change to any file in the library going to trigger a full backup of everything - (in this case 1TB+)?  And how does this differ between various backup options?  Again, assuming FCP users are mostly making home movies, with small file sizes and using Time Machine then a library concept might make sense.  But that is iMovie thinking.  And that Apple have implemented a "move to library" function without any transactional integrity (no deletions should be made until the successful copy is confirmed) further underpins the non-professional positioning of this product.
    I hope it improves with age...
    But thanks again for your help - it was timely and very much appreciated.

  • Iphone video capture

    This is a technical question related to my job as a structural engineer in the mining industry.
    I recently  inspected some vibrating machinery which was behaving in an unexpected manner, I took some video of the equipment on my iphone 3GS and when I viewed it on computer it showed distortion movements in the supports which were not visible to the naked eye.
    I subsequently video'd a machine in the workshop with the same result, ie the video capture shows dramatic distortion whilst the naked eye see's nothing.
    I pose the question as to whether the iphone video is more accurate than the eye or is it a frame capture rate ideosynchracy.
    The equipment vibrates between 10-30Hz range.
    I can post the video if anyone is interested but it is about 20Mb in size, however it is dramatic in its suggestions of flexibility.
    I am reluctant to draw conclusions from a video that the eye cannot detect.
    curious?
    regards

  • MSI P67A-C45 with 4x4Gb Corsair Vengeance = random freezes in bios

    Ok here is the problem i hope you guys can help me with. I recently bought the following rig:
    - MSI P67A-C45 Motherboard
    - 4x4Gb Corsair Vengeance memory.
    - MSI N560GTX-Ti Twin Frozr II/OC
    - Core i7 2600K
    I am having the following issues:
    Whenever i put in all the memory, the PC won't boot, it hangs even in the BIOS (at random pages). Everything seems to run fine (except for a minor detail which i will mention later) with 12 Gb installed (3 dimms that is). I have tried changing the voltage to 1.65v but this doesn't change anything. With 12 Gb (or even only 4Gb) installed there is only one weird thing happening:
    Whenever the pc wakes from hibernation i get the following error:
    “Your system's firmware did not preserve the system memory map across the hibernation transition. If you proceed with resume, your system could behave in an unexpected manner after resume completes. It is recommended that you save all your data and reboot after system resume finishes. Kindly check for a firmware update with your system vender as it may fix this problem."
    Then after clicking resume it says i can't resume from the saved state and that it will be discarded (effectively doing a clean boot of the OS).
    Can these two problems be related, and if so, is it a hardware problem or some BIOS settings i can try?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    1. Have you tested your mem sticks individually with memtest ? There is always a chance of a defective module.
    2. Test the mem at 1333. Insert only 2, set it to 1333 manually in the BIOS, save and switch off.  Add all modules and see if it boots.
    3. You may also want to reseat your CPU, whilst it's out, check the CPU contact pads for indentations and see if there are any pins on the socket that are bent.
    1. I have tested with 1 mem stick, then with 2, then 3 and then 4 (memtest from bios seems to be the only thing not crashing with 4 mem sticks). So i have not tested everything individually, but in my opinion this should be thorough enough.
    2. I have done this exact thing but then with 3 mem sticks, only adding the last one when switched off, then turning it back on again. I will try with the two so in dual channel, this might make a bit of a difference.
    3. I have reseated the CPU once, it is not a fun thing with the Big Shuriken cooler i have , i'll try this as a last resort.
