Change the size of the text only does not work

Font size standard on most of the Windows I have open in Windows 8 is a 5 or 6. I'm in front of my computer, 6 to 8 hours per day (teacher online), and it's the single most annoying problem that I have ever met.  "Change the size of the text only ' on my display settings page is grey - there is no solution.  Can I change the size of everything, that gives me giant icons, but the text on all the windows is still tiny.

I hope someone has a useful suggestion. Please don't tell me to go to "Change the size of text only." This is the function that does not work.
My Windows 8 was purchased in January - part of the Microsoft $! 5 offer to people who bought computers between October and December of last year. The installation went fairly well, but I had this problem of fonts since then.  ASUS computer laptop, Intel core I7, good resolution, good speed, ideal machine, except that Windows has me squint all that day, seven days a week.
Thank you and best regards, all

Hi Reggie

The option "Change only the size of the text" applies only to the text for the following items.

Title bars

Menus

Message boxes

Titles of palette

Text of the icon

ToolTips

What you need to do is select the link "Custom resizing options" directly above the option "Change only the text size.

In the dialog box move the cursor in the rule box, hold down the left button of the mouse and drag the rule. If the size is 100%, try to start with it to 125%.

Click OK, and then apply. You will be asked to disconnect / connect to before the change takes effect.

If 125% does not for you try to bump the size up one another 10% gradually until you are satisfied.

Let us know if it works for you.

  • The text tool does not work in Photoshop CC

    When I try to use the text tool, that it does nothing when I type even if the font size is 12, and the color is black on a white background, and then when I try to get out of the text tool a progress bar will appear that says "Record type" and the progress bar does not until 15 minutes later. After that, no text shows. I tried to move the text tool above where I have used it previously, and the cursor doesn't detect any text in the box.

    This is a brand new installation of photoshop, I did not any customizations to it.

    My operating system is a Mac with OS X 10.7.5.

    I already tried things:

    …………………………………………….

    -J' tried to uninstall and reinstall Photoshop CC and creative cloud.

    -J' tried to change the font size, color. Each took 15 minutes due to the type of rendering progress bar.

    -J' tried to change major fonts such as Verdana, Arial, etc..

    -J' did the steps on this page to troubleshoot fonts:

    http://helpx.Adobe.com/Photoshop/KB/troubleshoot-fonts-Photoshop-CS5.html

    It was the procedure on this page:

    S ' ensure that Photoshop is the most recent version.

    -Clear overview of the policies.

    -Delete the specified fonts known to cause trouble.

    -Clear cache fonts photoshop

    -Clear cache OS police

    -Try to remove everything except a font on the Mac and keep the rest in another folder.

    -Use their fonts test script.

    Now the police only that I have in my folder of Mac fonts is Arial.ttf

    I did all these things, and the problem still occurs. All other tools works fine for me! I need to use photoshop for graphics work, I need to do. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    I found the problem! When I pressed 'File' > 'New' to make a new document, I typed in the 1000, but I'm used to the measures in pixels, not inches. The new facility was in inches lol. The Web was gigantic! Once I put it to a smaller size that the text tool worked great! I feel stupid, I over looked that.

  • Why the text tool does not work?

    whenever I choose the text tool that doesn't work. It allows me to create the bar, but the curosor doesn't even blink. I type and its Blanck. I hit accept the test I typed shows on the layer, but not on the screen, I need help. I've even updated, reinstalled. I need help I am ready to throw my laptop. Please someone

    Is this a new problem with an old facility?

    Or a new facility and the Type of tool has never worked?

    What is the size of the image in pixels and resolution?  Something that sometimes happens is that people get the wrong units and I think they are pixel setting when it is in fact centimeters.  If you have a low resolution game, like the default 72 dpi, which can cause the tiny text, it might as well be invisible.  This is particularly problematic when the Type is set on Points.  To test simply do a new document with reasonable proportions.  that is 1000 x 1000 pixels, 300 dpi

    Another test is to select the text layer and use free transform, or zoom so you can see if you have a small bounding box.

    If this isn't the question and the text color is not the same as the background, then...

    First step is to reset the preferences.  (The relocation does not overwrite the preferences file).

    Also try resetting subject tools.

    Then uninstall Photoshop and use the cleaning tool before reinstalling.

  • How can I get rid of the Yahoo homepage? Changing the home page does not work.

    A week or two before Yahoo started coming as my home page. No matter how many times I change back to Bing, whenever I have rise of Firefox, there is Yahoo as homepage. Does not he back on Bing and clicking ok. I'm a little frustrated by that. How can I get rid of Yahoo to come as my home page when I have asked yet for her?

    Thank you for your time and your consideration.

    Sincerely,
    cbrsarah

    Change the home page when you check only in "Options > general > Startup" or is it a problem with the page that opens when you launch Firefox?
    For the latter, you can check the field target in the Firefox desktop shortcut.

    Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem.

    • Put yourself in the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance
    • Do NOT click on the reset button on the startup window Mode safe

    If you do not keep the changes after a reboot or have problems with preferences, see:

    Make a check of malware with several malware scanning of programs on the Windows computer.
    Please scan with all programs, because each program detects a different malicious program.
    All of these programs have free versions.

    Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before scanning.

    Alternatively, you can write a check for an infection rootkit TDSSKiller.

  • Qosmio G20-111: after disk HARD changing the Media center does not work

    Hi, I have a WME Quosmio G20-111, after a hard drive, toshiba support center evolution (disc hard bone) in Italy has reinstalled the WME but whenever I try to use the Media Center pc crash and show me a white screen. After several phone call they told me that the problem is that they don't update quosmio drive drivers?
    I'm desperate, any suggestions?

    [email protected]

    Hello

    Well, as far as I know that the Qosmio Player has been installed on the partition hidden on the new laptop, but perhaps the ASP is not install this application after replacing HARD drive.

    But I do not understand why the missing Qosmio Player should have a bad influence on the media library? MC is a Microsoft program that is part of the Windows XP MCE. Player of Qosmio is an invention of Toshiba and should have nothing to do with the MCE.

    However, you can try to install the Qosmio Player and then try to recover the entire operating system with the recovery CD Toshiba original delivered.

    Maybe it helps.

    my browser cannot open google and facebook and other https sites that it does not open even the app store does not work, I tried to change my DNS google DNS and disable IPv6 but still no use, help PLZ!

    You may have installed one or more variants of the malware "VSearch' ad-injection. Please back up all data, and then take the steps below to disable it.

    Do not use any type of product, "anti-virus" or "anti-malware" on a Mac. It is never necessary for her, and relying on it for protection makes you more vulnerable to attacks, not less.

    Malware is constantly evolving to work around defenses against it. This procedure works now, I know. It will not work in the future. Anyone finding this comment a couple of days or more after it was published should look for a more recent discussion, or start a new one.

    Step 1

    VSearch malware tries to hide by varying names of the files it installs. It regenerates itself also if you try to remove it when it is run. To remove it, you must first start in safe mode temporarily disable the malware.

    Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or an earlier version, or if a firmware password is defined, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can not do this. Ask for other instructions.

    Step 2

    When running in safe mode, load the web page and then triple - click on the line below to select. Copy the text to the Clipboard by pressing Control-C key combination:

    /Library/LaunchDaemons

    In the Finder, select

    Go ▹ go to the folder...

    from the menu bar and paste it into the box that opens by pressing command + V. You won't see what you pasted a newline being included. Press return.

    A folder named "LaunchDaemons" can open. If this is the case, press the combination of keys command-2 to select the display of the list, if it is not already selected.

    There should be a column in the update Finder window. Click this title two times to sort the content by date with the most recent at the top. Please don't skip this step. Files that belong to an instance of VSearch will have the same date of change for a few minutes, then they will be grouped together when you sort the folder this way, which makes them easy to identify.

    Step 3

    In the LaunchDaemons folder, there may be one or more files with the name of this form:

    com Apple.something.plist

    When something is a random string, without the letters, different in each case.

    Note that the name consists of four words separated by dots. Typical examples are:

    com Apple.builins.plist

    com Apple.cereng.plist

    com Apple.nysgar.plist

    There may be one or more items with a name of the form:

    com.something.plist

    Yet once something is a random string, without meaning - not necessarily the same as that which appears in one of the other file names.

    These names consist of three words separated by dots. Typical examples are:

    com.semifasciaUpd.plist

    com.ubuiling.plist

    Sometimes there are items (usually not more than one) with the name of this form:

    com.something .net - preferences.plist

    This name consists of four words (the third hyphen) separated by periods. Typical example:

    com.jangly .net - preferences.plist

    Drag all items in the basket. You may be prompted for administrator login password.

    Restart the computer and empty the trash.

    Examples of legitimate files located in the same folder:

    com.apple.FinalCutServer.fcsvr_ldsd.plist

    com Apple.Installer.osmessagetracing.plist

    com Apple.Qmaster.qmasterd.plist

    com Apple.aelwriter.plist

    com Apple.SERVERD.plist

    com Tether.plist

    The first three are clearly not VSearch files because the names do not match the above models. The last three are not easy to distinguish by the name alone, but the modification date will be earlier than the date at which VSearch has been installed, perhaps several years. None of these files will be present in most installations of Mac OS X.

    Do not delete the folder 'LaunchDaemons' or anything else inside, unless you know you have another type of unwanted software and more VSearch. The file is a normal part of Mac OS X. The "demon" refers to a program that starts automatically. This is not inherently bad, but the mechanism is sometimes exploited by hackers for malicious software.

    If you are not sure whether a file is part of the malware, order the contents of the folder by date modified I wrote in step 2, no name. Malicious files will be grouped together. There could be more than one such group, if you attacked more than once. A file dated far in the past is not part of the malware. A folder in date dated Middle an obviously malicious cluster is almost certainly too malicious.

    If the files come back after you remove the, they are replaced by others with similar names, then either you didn't start in safe mode or you do not have all the. Return to step 1 and try again.

    Step 4

    Reset the home page in each of your browsers, if it has been modified. In Safari, first load the desired home page, then select

    ▹ Safari preferences... ▹ General

    and click on

    Set on the current Page

    If you use Firefox or Chrome web browser, remove the extensions or add-ons that you don't know that you need. When in doubt, remove all of them.

    The malware is now permanently inactivated, as long as you reinstall it never. A few small files will be left behind, but they have no effect, and trying to find all them is more trouble that it's worth.

    Step 5

    The malware lets the web proxy discovery in the network settings. If you know that the setting was already enabled for a reason, skip this step. Otherwise, you should undo the change.

    Open the network pane in system preferences. If there is a padlock icon in the lower left corner of the window, click it and authenticate to unlock the settings. Click the Advanced button, and then select Proxies in the sheet that drops down. Uncheck that Auto Discovery Proxy if it is checked. Click OK, and then apply.

    Step 6

    This step is optional. Open the users and groups in the system preferences and click on the lock icon to unlock the settings. In the list of users, there may be some with random names that have been added by the malware. You can remove these users. If you are not sure whether a user is legitimate, do not delete it.

  • print easy text.vi does not work in the executable

    I have 3 computers to target that runs labview 2012 on a PXIe8101controller.  In my statemachine the vi prints a report using simple text, report vi (palletized report generation) at the end of the trial.  Its an executable vi on all 3 machines.  On 2 machines, it works fine.  On the 3rd he hangs up when I'm logged in as a standard user.  If I log in as an administrator, it works very well.  The thing I noticed is that on 2 machines, that it works, the image is "factory...". 1.2.1F6' (under control panel > systems).

    On the test equipment that it only works in admin mode the original image is 1.2.4.f1.  MAX is also 5.3.1 on that past fine and 5.5.0 f1 on the one that does not work on.  Everything I'm mssing?

  • Only the left speaker does not work on Satellite A300

    Hello

    I have a problem with my Toshiba Satellite A300: the left speaker does not work but the right to a good job.

    I think that this is not a software problem because reinstalling driver does not solve the problem, and I have the same problem with a Ubuntu live CD, also is not a sound card problem because his work well with a headphones or an external speaker.

    The cause is probably a coward of connection between the left speaker and sound card.

    Please tell me what to do.
    I can fix it without sending the laptop of Toshiba ASP?

    Hello

    If you ask for an opinion, so here's one;
    I think that it s speaker malfunction, I doubt that it s a loose connection or something like that and I would not recommend trying to fix this problem yourself.
    First of all, know all you n t that's exactly wrong, and second, you will lose your warranty and could damage other parts if you would disassemble the laptop.

    In this case, the ASP in one and only one good way to solve this problem.
    Contact the guy and ask him for the handling of the Fryer!

    Good luck
