MacBook Air :: Desktop Icon Defaults To Tiny Size

Jun 23, 2014

My desktop icon size CONTINUALLY defaults to a very tiny size.  I know where to change the size > click on desktop > show view options > adjust icon size; however, inevitably as soon as I close it out, it defaults back to a very tiny size..I mean VERY tiny.  So I have to continually do the above procedure to increase the size again. Doesn't look like there is a way to LOCK that desktop icon size.   

-Mac OS X 10.6.8
-Mac Air

MacBook Pro :: Desktop Icon Size Changing By Itself

Jan 11, 2011

Got a new MBP 13". Just the one problem. Every now and again, always when I am touching the mousepad, the icon sizes on the desktop change. I then have to go into Show View Options and set it back again to what I want.

MacBook Pro :: Tiny Screen Size And Larger Bezel

Sep 3, 2009

So I was in the Apple Store again yesterday and whilst looking around the different versions of the notebooks it suddenly struck me that, with all things considered, the 13" Macbook Pro isn't really a 'Pro'. It doesn't look or feel very Pro-like especially when you consider the lower spec, tiny screen size, and larger bezel. It really strikes home when you see all the 13", 15", and 17" laid out side-by-side on display. I really think by upgrading the 13" name to 'Macbook Pro' Apple are doing a grave injustice to all the customers who could afford and purchased the real Pros'.

OS X :: Increasing The Toolbar Icon Size?

Jul 8, 2009

New to Macs and struggling a bit with the high res/ average eye sight combo.

I've managed to get most of my apps text sizes ok for me to see (though FF skews things up a bit), but I find my toolbar icons and text size to be a bit small for me.

Two main apps cause me grief. Mail and Office. I can't seem ti find anywhere where I can increase the size of the toolbar icons. In mail i can use Large icons, but that doesn't affect the toolbar. In Office (mainly Word/Excel) I can't seem to find anything at all.
