I was using an online game with extra large icons. I pulled down the top of my laptop for a few seconds. After pulling it up and finishing the game all of my icons are huge like the game. I can only see part of my Comcast screen since all of it doesn't fit on the screen. I've tried restarting several times. Can you help, please

It could be a couple things.
1. Your resolution has changed because of this game you were playing.
2. Your DPI has changed somehow and needs to be changed back.

To change your resolution:
For Windows XP: Right-click on your desktop and go to properties and then settings and change the resolution to the highest resolution and go down until you see one that you like.

For vista and Windows 7: Type change resolution in the start menu and click the first option. and change the resolution to the highest setting and go down until you find the one that you recognize.

To change your DPI:
For Windows XP: Same as before but instead of changing the resolution click "advance in the bottom right" and change it to 96 DPI(which is the default) or change it to whatever suites your tastes.

For visa/win 7: simply type "dpi into the start menu

You will need to reset your resolution. Right click on any part of the desktop and select properties. Choose the display tab. There will be a slider there move it one notch to the right, and click apply. Keep doing this until it is back to a comfortable viewing for you. Note if you click apply and your screen goes blank, just wait for 30 seconds, it will come back, then try another selection.

How to remove game or apps

What device are you wanting to delete these games or apps ?
a computer ? ipad ? iphone? android ? ......
Delete a Game on Android
Android-based smartphones have the capability to access the Android Market, where you can download and install a large number of applications, including many games.
These games take up a bit of your device's memory when you install them, so when you decide to stop playing the game, you should always delete it from your device to free up space for more applications.
The Android Applications menu gives you all the tools you need to remove games from your device.

Tap the "Menu" button on your Android smartphone.
Tap "Settings" when it appears on the pop-up menu.
Flick your finger up the LCD screen to scroll down the Settings list.
Tap "Applications" when you locate it in the list, then tap "Manage Applications," which is just called Manage on some versions of the operating system.
Allow your device a few seconds to load all of your applications.

Flick your finger up the screen to scroll down the list of installed applications.
Tap the game that you want to delete.
Then tap the "Uninstall" button at the top of the game's information screen.
Tap "OK" to confirm your decision, and the device deletes the game.

    When you first get Nintendo dogs do you have to earn the supplies and go out list?

    The first part of the game is a training session and you won't see the extra icons until you have finished training. Basically you have to name it and then keep calling him so he recognises his name again and again! Then you will be invited to train him to sit, when you do this an icon in the top right will appear when you click it you record 'sit down'. Again you have to do this lots of times until your dog gets it then the game will move on and you can feed it etc. Good luck!!!!

    Fossil ch 2470 watch. I have no idea what the extra little dials are for on the face and how to set them. Please help

    The dials are part of a Chronograph (stop watch) I assume there is a second, minute, and maybe a date function. Usually the large second hand is part of the stop watch on only moves when you start the stopwatch (top right button) push again to stop and reset back too zero is the bottom button. Usually to set or zero out those dials pull out the crown to the first click (also sets date) then push the top button to set the seconds (big hand) and the bottom button to set the other. sometimes you may need to pull the crown out to the second click (also sets hour and minutes) to set add'l dials. This is generally how you set most chronograph watches the button you push and what moves may be different.

    Printer not printing

    Try unplugging it or pulling the power brick out of the back, wait a few seconds, plug it back in, and then turn it on. It might have something stuck in its memory.
