IMac :: Picture Enlarged When Set As Desktop

Feb 19, 2010

My most beloved Kitty girl had to be put down the other day and I SO want her photo as my desktop. I took an old photo of her and cropped it and went to (on Iphoto) share and set desktop and I had it perfect. Then I played around with other photos of her to see if I liked them better and when I came back to her photo and did a set desktop it was WAY too big. I went to the original on my camera and transferred it to I photo - fixed it and did a set desktop but it is way to big.

MacBook Pro :: Enlarged Screen After Disconnect Power And Usb Devices?

Mar 5, 2012

When I need to take the macbook pro with me, I usually turn it off, remove the power output and all the usb cables from it. So later when then I turn it on, the screen is a little bit enlarged and doesn't go back to normal size - or at least I don't know how to make it go back to the normal display. And the zoom is not turned on - already checked it a couple times.

OS X :: Rebuilding Iphoto Library - Blurry Photos When Enlarged

Feb 21, 2010

I noticed that when importing photos into Iphoto, sometimes the importing process will hang or take a long time to finish. I would usually have to close Iphoto and import the photos again. My Iphoto Library is about 70GB. I decided to rebuild my Iphoto Library hoping that it would fix those issues. It took several hours to rebuild. Afterwards I opened Iphoto and noticed that when enlarging alot of my photos, there was a blur in the photo before it would display. This mostly occurs with my large sized photos. I never had this before. I decided to import some photos that are already in Iphoto (ones that when enlarged have a blur) from my picture folder. When I enlarged them there was no blur. Should I try rebuilding my Iphoto Library again but this time just select "rebuild all of the photos' thumbnails". I also notice that some of the thumbnails are blurry.

I want to keep my school files on desktop two so they are all in the same place, and use desktop one as a place to perhaps save photos or other files not school related.

MacBook Pro :: Desktop Freezing - Interact With Desktop - Nothing Works

Oct 18, 2010

So over the last month or 2, I have been having this issue where my MBP (early 2008) will act as though the desktop doesnt exist. I can see it, everything functions normally, all programs operate fine, I can use spaces, expose, etc, but when I try to interact with my desktop, nothing works. I cant highlight folders, I can click on anything. Anyone know what might be causing this?

OS X :: Items Showing Up In Desktop Folder But Not On The Desktop Itself?

Mar 9, 2009

This doesn't happen all the time, but frequently enough to create a thread about it to find out what's going on.

I usually keep my desktop empty and use it to store stuff I'm going to process in the next hour anyway.
Sometimes my desktop is absolutely empty, but when I navigate to the following path: UserDesktop, the files do show up.

OS X :: Using My Macbook Like A Desktop?

May 14, 2009

i ran into quite a problem. My macbook keyboard needs to be replaced, so i figured i'd use my dell for now. Well, my dell hard drive died after about 10 years of use lol, so now i have a desktop with no hard drive, and a macbook with no keyboard lol. I hooked up my macbook to my monitor, got my keyboard and mouse hooked up, and speakers too. It's pretty cool, no difference from a desktop. My only question now is I'm wondering if there is any way that I can keep my macbook running with it closed. I want to do this if its possible so i can just use it like a desktop for now, and keep it closed so the monitor for it isnt on 24/7, and so i can fit it on top of my computer tower. I think I'm going to get a cooler to sit it on since i'm going to use it like this too. But is there anyway to shut it and use it?

Hardware :: MacBook Pro With OS 10.5.8 And A GH Desktop 1.6

Jan 12, 2010

I use a Hub with both of my computers. A MacBook Pro with OS 10.5.8 and a GH desktop 1.6. When I first start up my computers after they have been sitting overnight and turned off I generally have to pull out my printer USB cord from the hub and plug it back in for the printer to work. It can also happen with other devices such as a keyboard. Is this normal or a hub problem. Both of my hubs are D-Link 2.0 hubs and are powered off of my computer USB port.

MacBook Pro :: 1tb WD Does Not Show Up On The Desktop

Sep 3, 2010

So, i bought a used macbook pro (2,2) 15inch 4gb ram, 320gb hd, and it is in GREAT condition, looks brand new. when i saw the laptop, i made sure everything worked, even the usb ports and all is fine.

when i came home, i formatted, and installed Snow Leopard, did ALL the updates before i did anything else. and i just noticed now when i plugged in my 1tb WD Passport it dosnt show up on the desktop, nor the disk utility, however the hard drive light turns on but when i put my hand on the laptop, it dosnt appear to be 'spinning' up.

i tried plugging in USB stick in both USB ports and it works, shows up just fine.
so i dont think it could be the usb ports..

BUT when i plug the same external hard drive on my new i7 imac it shows up.yesterday, i plugged in the same drive into a friends Mac Pro, and had no problems. but i cant seem to figure this out.

MacBook :: Converting A MB Into A Desktop?

Sep 6, 2010

So I wanted to convert my macbook into a desktop. I dont mean taht I want to run in a clamshell mode but literally remove it from its casing and make it run. SO my first step was to remove the lcd from it. Which I did. Now I hooked it up to a TV that I have with a component cable but the picture on the tv is VERY bad. I dont know if its the cable or its just the computer itself. Is s-video better? The display properties only give me a choice to go upto 1024x768.
