Mar 17, 2007I was playing with the maximize button on a Finder window a few days ago and toggling it would yield a different size every time (guess I was amused by that). So it go into a state where the resize corner is out of reach always now. Clicking on the maximize button does not change the size at all and just remains there. I want to be able to resize Finder again. How do I do it? For reference, attached is the screenshot of my desktop with Finder window, so you can see what I mean. I am unable to find a way to get it to a stage where the full window can be shown and I can resize it.

Apr 17, 2012My finder window's sidebar appears to be locked and I cannot resize it. I've read that when putting my mouse in the line between the sidebar and the files area to the right it should change to a bar cursor that I can then use to resize the sidebar. But the cursor never changes when I do this so I cannot resize the sidebar. Any suggestions to re-enable this?

OS X :: Automatically Resize Finder Columns To The Longest Filename?
Aug 20, 2010I've read the other posts about this issue, but have not found a thread addressing automatic resizing a Finder column width to the longest filename. Is there a trick to configure Finder to do this? So far it looks like only a manual double-click of the column handle will accomplish this.

OS X :: Auto Resize Windows To Fit?
Oct 2, 2010I could have sworn this was possible and I just can't remember how to do it. In Windows 7, the OS is able to resize the windows to where it splits the screen between the two open windows equally. I could have sworn OS X is able to do the same thing, but I can't remember. I have a lot of papers and careplans to right. Am I wrong or is this not possible?

Applications :: How To Resize Windows Partition
May 17, 2009Well when I bought my Mac I said "O I bet I'll still use Windows a TON for various tasks." So I made a 100GB Partition for Windows. Now I'm realizing how dumb that was because I only boot into Windows once a month now, and I have only used about 10GB of that Windows Partition. So I have about 90GB free on that partition. Back on the OSX disk I only have 3GB free, and I need space. So, can I make the Windows partition smaller, or do I have to completely wipe it?
View 10 Replies View RelatedOS X V10.5 Leopard :: Why Do Some Windows Resize Correctly, Others Don't
Apr 21, 2012Many games launch in 800x600 resolution before they can be resized. To get around this I always minimize open application windows before I play, then click them out of the Dock when I've finished. Some apps come out of the Dock as they were before (Safari, Mail) while others expand as if they were in an 800x600 environment (iTunes). How can I get iTunes to behave the same way as Safari and Mail? Why is it expanding with a small window when I minimized it BEFORE launching the game in question?

Windows On Mac :: Unable To Resize Bootcamp Partition
Jan 6, 2011Running Win 7 Ultimate 64-Bit and OS X 10.6.5. Winclone version is 2.2. I attempted to enlarge my Bootcamp Windows partition (deleted, resized to full, and then resized again with Bootcamp Assistant). I've made several attempts without any success. I have two Winclone images (11/2010 & 1/2011). The latest image doesn't even get started good before I get an error about 2 bad sectors and the one from last year runs all the way through and gives an error at the end. I ran disk repair on the complete partition before rezizing back to bootcamp and it still didn't work. I managed to get a win 7 repair disk to run one time and ran chkdsk on the bootcamp partition that returned no errors. I thought I might be able to install Win 7 fresh and then do a restore from a Windows system image that I have, but I can't get my Windows 7 disk to work when using the Bootcamp Assistant (I get a boot screen with two options (1. & 2. with nothing else visible) at the install point of the process and can't go past there).

OS X V10.7 Lion :: Cannot Resize Or Partition Hard Drive For Windows
Mar 25, 2012The picture above is evidence of my self-corrupting OS. Those 3 problems are the same every single time I boot my computer. I have done countless re-installs of OS X Lion, even bought a new hard drive and did a clean install. Because of the self-corruption, I cant resize or partition my drive for Windows, with Boot Camp giving me a generic "An error has occurred. Format your disk and re-install Mac OS X" (Partitioning failed so I never wiped).

Applications :: Drag Windows To Edge Of Desktop And Auto Resize?
Aug 31, 2010Those that have Windows 7 should know what I'm talking about. You can drag your application windows to the edge of the screen and Windows will automatically resize your window to take up half the screen. You can then do it with another window on the other edge and have 2 50/50 windows open. Anyone know of software that will allow me to do this on my Mac?

OS X :: Unable To Get Windows To Resize From 24" External Monitor To 13"
Jul 2, 2010I recently went from a 24" iMac to a 13" MBP and I'm trying to figure out how to get windows to automatically resize when dragging them from my 24" external monitor to my MBP. Currently I can drag a window and it will resize vertically but not horizontally. Also, if I have my external monitor connected and have iTunes on it(or safari, mail, iCal, etc.) and then I close iTunes and unplug my external monitor and then reopen itunes at a later time it is waaay to big for my MBP's screen and I cant adjust the size since the corners are way off the screen. I literally have to wait tell I can plug my external monitor back in and resize iTunes to make it small enough to fit on my MBP.
