You can’t control the sound volume of a CD.
mThe volume control on the Control Strip affects the computer’s beep sound
only. To control the volume of a CD, use the AppleCD Audio Player, located in the Apple (K) menu.
You don’t see the monitor resolution you want.
You can see additional resolution choices in the Monitors control panel if you hold down the Option key on your keyboard while you click the Options button in the control panel. In the list that appears, click the resolution you want. (Some models use a different control panel. Consult the documentation that came with your computer or system software upgrade kit.)
Note: Some of the items in this list are not optimized for your monitor. If you choose a resolution that doesn’t work with your monitor, you may see a message, or your monitor may go blank or show static. After approximately 15 seconds, your monitor should revert to a usable resolution. If it does not, restart your computer.
After you change the screen resolution, a window is stuck, halfway off the screen, or missing; or you can’t see the whole screen.
Try one of the following:
mIf you changed the resolution in a control panel, make sure the control panel is closed before trying to use another window.
mQuit the program whose window is missing and then open it again.
mIf the program has a Windows menu, use it to hide the problem window and then show it again.
mGo back to the resolution you were using, close the window, change the resolution, and then reopen the window.
mTry another resolution.
If you have problems with a particular program, contact the publisher of that program. Not all programs take advantage of your monitor’s multiple resolution feature.
After you change the number of colors displayed on the screen, the colors don’t look right.
Try one of the following:
mQuit the program you’re running and start it again.
mGo back to the number of colors you were using.
