Display on a monitor is not fully used. What should do?
I recently bought a Mac mini (end of 2014)
OS X 10.11.5 (15F34)
I use a Samsung 19 inch monitor via mini display port to VGA.
But the screen is not fully used (black on both right and left of the picture)
When I go to about this mac > display, this is show 13.9 inch (800 x 600). I changed the resolution of 1280 x 1024 through the display preferences. But it is still not working and this mac > display, shows always 13.9 inch (800 x 600). The image is blurred.
Help, please...
You may need to buy a graphics card in order to use a different port on the computer.
Check the display to see if there are other options of the signal may use another cable.
A more recent model computer should be able to use a modern with Thunderbolt screen
connections; Some cables with ends adapter for use with older screens may work
If the display can be used in this way. Not all of the same works if an adapter may adapt to the form.
• Apple Mini DisplayPort adapter: Frequently asked questions (FAQ) - Apple Support
While I have two Mac Mini computers, one is a late 2005 and the other end 2012;
both can use an HDMI adapter for a 19 inch Samsung works for these at full resolution.
Mini-Display port to HDMI it works; If not, using lightning.
One of my screens use one of these cards:
Apple Mini DisplayPort to DVI adapter
Some display models require pilots who would be obscure and not included with
OS X; I have another Samsung that turns, it is supported but you must use a third-
part control panel app in the old OS X 10.5.8 and OS X 10.9.5. The X OS
controls brightness and resolution are limited without it.
{Since the new Mac Mini is more beautiful with a movie theater 20 inch aluminum, it's what}
He has; the older Mini OK with a Samsung 19 inch (square), and it uses
control software for OS X settings cannot. Most recent can use Thunderbolt.}
Not sure if your screen is oldest of those who may need a separate control software.
There is a updated firmware for Mini Display Port to VGA (himself):
On the Mini DisplayPort to VGA adapter firmware update - Apple Support
If you see not all possible display resolutions in displays preferences
It may be due to the absence of a favorite graphics card. Or a longer display limit.
• The display of all the possible resolutions for viewing under Mac OS X:

• About the Mini DisplayPort to HDMI - Apple Support adapters
You may need the machine support site to test technical research view if you
not a page printed with line info specifications said. Several different adapters
are available; You can even use a digital TV (limits) as screen.
- Learn more about Troubleshooting display issues.
- Learn what adapters are compatible with the specific Apple computers.
- Learn more on Thunderbolt and displays ports.
The technology of the adapter and display need to better match those of the Mini.
Older tech display should be supported within the limits. Connections and drivers.
PS: See if the update of the firmware of the adapter you have, will allow him to work.
If the adapter is an Apple product, it would be able to accept the firmware.
Good luck!

Hey guys, so I have an ASUS X502C and last night, it has become very slow, that I tried to close all pages open and it started making a very loud noise. I couldn't even turn off, so I closed the lid and went to sleep. When I woke up it was still on the same screen until I tried to close it and turn it off. He went to a black screen with the back light on. My model is an integrated and I was afraid to take it apart and * it upward. I tried all the f keys, but only F2 works. It does not display my HD, and it does not start. What should do?

my battery drains very quickly even when not in service, what should I do to fix that?
Hello rabeeha hafeez robi.
Thank you for using communities of Apple Support. It is my understanding that your iPhone battery has been draining more than expected. I use my iPhone all day, so I know how important the battery life can be. Surely, I understand your concern, as much as it seems as if the phone is not in use.
First, I recommend that you check your settings to see what is using your battery life. You can do this by going to settings > battery. In some cases substantive activity of the app may affect the battery life. This means that the battery is used by an application while it is in the background. The link below provides additional information and advice to help maximise your battery performance.

To start my computer upward as usual and takes me to open a session. I connect and my background appears, however my desktop icons, start menu and taskbar DO NOT appear. I can still access the Task Manager and command prompt, but when I try to use a command, absolutely nothing is happening, leaving this method of system recovery is not possible. What should I do?
bleedorange1998,
Thanks for posting with us. I suggest try to start safe mode and see if it works correctly. If Yes, then you can start using the "last known good configuration." If in Safe Mode, you have the same problem, you should run chkdsk /r and sfc/scannow. Here are the instructions for these suggestions. Post back with the results.This article explains how to start the Windows Advanced Options menu: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/315222
