You can’t control the sound volume of a CD.
m The 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:
m If you changed the resolution in a control panel, make sure the control
panel is closed before trying to use another window.
m Quit the program whose window is missing and then open it again.
m If the program has a Windows menu, use it to hide the problem window
and then show it again.
m Go back to the resolution you were using, close the window, change the
resolution, and then reopen the window.
m Try 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:
m Quit the program you’re running and start it again.
m Go back to the number of colors you were using.
