Mission control annimation

On MBP - I have no mission control "annimation" (like the dock annimation) when I mouse-over the desktops at the top...
Is anybody else seeimg this little glitch?

It means that it will switch to the space where there are currently open windows for the app rather then create new ones on the current Desktop.

Problem to get Mission Control 3.0.1 running with JBoss 4.2.2GA

Hello,
I'm using JRockit R27.04 to run JBoss 4.2.2GA with the following VM parameters:
-Xmanagement:ssl=false,authenticate=false,port=7091,autodiscovery=true -Djavax.management.builder.initial=org.jboss.system.server.jmx.MBeanServerBuilderImpl -Djboss.platform.mbeanserver
It's working fine but when I try to use any feature of Mission Control (console, memleak, JRA, ...) pointing to JBoss, I get a ClassNotFoundException:
Could not open Memory Leak Detector for (1.6) org.jboss.Main (4460).

Can anyone help me?
Thank's,

It was a good attempt, but I'm still getting the same exceptions.
I tried to create a new service file, and it was successful deployed:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<server>
<mbean code="bea.jrockit.management.JRockitConsole" name="bea.jrockit.management:type=JRockitConsole">
</mbean>
</server>
After it I opened JBoss JMX Console and I saw the following mbeans published:
bea.jrockit.management
type=Compilation
type=DiagnosticCommand
type=GarbageCollector
type=JRA
type=JRockitConsole
type=Log
type=MemLeak
type=Memory
type=PerfCounters
type=Profiler
type=Runtime
So, it appears that all jkrockit MBeans are published, but the problem persist.
Any other suggestion?
Thanks,

I am trying to use powerpoint but when I open a document I want to work on it does not open on my desktop. It appears as open on mission control but it disappears offscreen. How can I get it to open where i need it and can work on it?

I am trying to use powerpoint but when I open a document I want to work on it does not open on my desktop. It appears as open on mission control but it disappears offscreen. How can I get it to open where i need it and can work on it?

It's almost certainly too late.
The time to create a backup is before a catastrophe. After a catastrophe, it's too late.

How can I fix Dock/Mission Control/Launchpad? (Glitch)

General Description
Mission Control and Launchpad glitch when invoked (whether by using the mouse or trackpad gesture). They seems to crash or quit, and then relaunch themselves (/itself - all the same app?), I know this because:
they both, as well as Dock, become unresponsive;
the desktop background images disappear temporarily (being replaced by blank light or dark grey);
the Mission Control animation stops/freezes and does not execute properly (the windows stay still);
Dock becomes unresponsive as well as Launchpad.
This happens a lot (every other invokation) and seems to be random; it's annoying and is ruining my workflow, since I am a heavy user of multiple desktops.
Behaviour
I usually have over ten desktops, all with active apps open at one time; when it glitches I can't even open or switch applications, though I can use the ones that are on the current desktop (if was trying to use Mission Control).
There is no correlation with the glitch and the amount of applications open, or how much RAM or CPU is active (still happens with only a few light apps open and a few desktops).
It does not matter whether I am using more than one monitor, the glitch still occurs.
It does not happen due to a particular open application, as I have tested with nothing open at all straight after a restart.
Possible and tested causes
An application might be corrupting the glitchy app(s), since the disk breaks after being repaired in Safe Boot mode. Once the disk has been repaired, the glitch doesn't seem to occur until a few applications have been opened, though I haven't tested this much. (I am suspecting TheBrain, but not sure. Other potential culprits: Chrome, Mail, Firefox, Spotify, Skype, Dictionary, Activity Monitor, Finder).
It isn't the operating system itself because I have reinstalled it from Safe Boot mode, and yet the glitch persists.
The application(s) affected by the glitch may be corrupted, and need reinstalled - that is, if they weren't already by reinstalling the operating system (they are in the '/System/CoreServices' folder).
Not-so-possible:
I doubt it is a virus - it would be a pretty pointless glitch for one to cause.
I have Time Machine running most of the time, but I have no reason to believe that is the cause.
I am using a NEET mini display port to HDMI adapter for my second monitor (no idea how that could be causing the issue).
Help
Any ideas on what I could do to fix this?
And does anyone know how to reinstall Mission Control, Dock and Launchpad (I think they are all part of '/System/Library/CoreServices/Dock.app')? This might be worth a try.
Specifications (just in case)
2010 Macbook Pro
2.8 GHz Intel i7
8 GB memory
500 GB HD (two thirds full)
Thanks for any help!

One thing I'd like for you to try: Create a new user account. Log into the new account and see if the same problems persist.
Many times such crashes are the result of corrupted preference or cache files. The above will eliminate these in the user account but not at the system level. So, I suggest you use a utility such as Lion Cache Cleaner 6.0.11 or Purity 1.10 to clear out cache files at the system level. I've never used the latter software but I, personally, use the former one on my computers.

My MacBook Pro is stuck in Dashboard overlay. When I opened the case this morning there it was. I did not enter this mode and cannot get out and back to the desktop. I have tried Mission control, but it will not open, escape doesn't work either.

I have a MacBook Pro running Yosemite.I did not shut down the computer last night. When I opened the computer this morning Dashboard in overlay was on the screen. I have not been able to get out of dashboard. I have tried esc, F12, and accessing System Preferences in the Dock. I clicked on Mission control and nothing changed. Help be get back to my desktop.

     Did you try restarting the computer?
    Delete com.apple.dashboard.plist file.
    Quit all applications.
    Option click the "Go" menu in the Finder menu bar.
    Select "Library" from the drop down.
    Library > Preferences > com.apple.dashboard.plist
    Right click on it and select "Move it to Trash".
    Restart.
    If this doesn’t help, Put back the com.apple.dashboard.plist
    Right click the Trash icon in the Dock and select “Open”.
    Right click the com.apple.dashboard.plist and select “Put Back”.

Trackpad is presenting a bug to open and close windows, mission control, and to move/roll the application (App) up and down.

Totally out of the blue, my trackpad is presenting a "bug". Every time that I try to open and close my mission control, or in the moments that I move / roll up and downs the Applications Screen, my Mac freezes for less than a second.
It never suffered any damage (NEVER!)! I am feeling very frustrated because I have no idea about what could cause such problem.
My MacBook Air is running OS X 10.9.5.
Any help will be very welcome!

Well, it all really depends on the custom program and how it was written. Does it have an ActiveX interface? If it does, than that's the easiest way to go. If you put an automation refnum on the fron panel, you can right click and it and choose Select ActiveX Class>Browse. The browser will list all of the ActiveX type libraries that are registered on your system. If you can find one that refers to your custom program, then you should be able to use it's methods and properties to control. If it does not have an ActiveX interface, then things get much more difficult.

IMovie shows up in Mission Control, but doesn't open when clicked.

Can't open iMovie. iMovie shows up in Mission Control, but doesn't open when clicked. It just disappears up in the top left corner of the screen. The controls on the top of the screen (like; iMovie, File, Edit, View, Text, Share, etc) are al there, and they seem to work, but the window just won't show up.
It happened after installing Mountain Lion on my Macbook Pro.
Any ideas?

Disable screen saver. Restart.

HT4689 With mission control in Mountain Lion, is there a setting that displays a document name when it is selected?

For example, if I have 4 word documents open, and go to mission control so they are all displayed, can I turn a feature on that displays the document name when my mouse is over each document?
Like in the picture, if I have my mouse over a document, the name of the document isn't displayed. Can I change this?

Hey!
I just got a new mac and was trying to figure out the same thing today!! I went from an older version to this 10.9. I called apple support, the tech had no idea what I was talking about. I was transferred to a manager who told me that it is not feature available on the new models. After a 40 minute conversation I was about to let it go and then I saw this post and became determined LOL ... and I figured it out (SMH apple support). So here is how you do you it:
system preferences > trackpad > you want to make sure the "App Expose" is checked off > and you're done!!
I am not able to upload a 2 photos so I will post a second screenshot of what it looks like once the preferences are set.

What is the point of Mission Control?

I have been a Mac user since 1987, when I got my first SE/30. I understand a LOT about the Mac OS, and I consider myself and expert. For the life of me, however, I cannot figure out the point of Mission Control (or Exposé or Spaces, for that matter). Let me explain, and ask if anyone here can clear this up for me.
As I understand it, the point of Mission Control is to make it easy to access various open applications in an uncluttered workspace/desktop. If this is the case, then how is this better than, say, Quickeys, which I have used forever?
In other words, I typically use the following applications, all open at the same time: Word, Mail, Safari, my office accounting program, iTunes, iChat, and maybe one or two more. I use Quickeys and have assigned a keyboard shortcut for each - for example, control-E for mail; control-s for Safari; control-W for Word, etc. It is second nature for me to immediately go to, say, Mail by pressing control-E. Bringing the app to the front is literally instantaneous.
I "get it" that, say, Safari can show below Mail, or iTunes can show behind Word, but that (multiple windows partially overlappiong each other) has never bothered me - indeed, I've never even considered it something worthy of worry.
Thus, my question is, how does Mission Control do this - navigation of open applications - better than Quickeys? Is it simply and only to avoid the "behind the window clutter"? If so, is the contortion needed to activate Mission Control - removing fingers from keyboard, clicking mouse, navigating mouse to proper desktop, and returning keys to keyboard - worth it? If so, how? There has to be something else to this Mission Control that I am just missing.
Could one of you enlighten me?
Thanks!

Different people have different ways of working and long ago I discovered the joys of virtual desktops (think mission control). Since System 7 (when the multi-finder stopped being optional) I've been keeping lots of programs open at the same time. The problem with that is the desktop gets very cluttered very fast and getting to the right window of the right program can be challenging. Thankfully between 3rd party tools and Apple's own built in tools we have many ways of dealing with this. Mission Control (virtual desktops) is one of them.
I have assigned related programs to a single desktop. I have the Programming Desktop where the terminal, BBedit, Racket, and Xcode tools live. I have the Writing Desktop where Pages, Word, and InDesign live. And so on. This cuts down on the clutter of my display since only a couple programs appear on a single virtual desktop. Where Mission Control itself comes into play is when I need to get a resource from one Desktop to another. Say I'm writing an email and need to refer back to a document in Word. I might open the document in Word (which would move me into the Writing Desktop) then I'd shift to Mission Control and drag that Word document's window into my Internet Desktop so it would temporarily reside along with Mail so I could look at both the Word document and my email.
It isn't the only way to work but I've found it very convenient and indispensible on my notebook. On my work desktop where I have two displays my workflow is a little different since I have lots of REAL window space.

After installing Lion os I cannot see my desktop 1 nor can I see my open windows when I go to finder, I just get the grey/black background that comes with mission control. Any ideas as to how to solve this problem?

The top picture is what my Desktop 1 looks like. And the picture below is what my desktop looks like after clicking mission control. Ive tried changing wallpapers, changing preferences, etc. and I still can't figure out what's wrong. As you can see, on mission control you can't see any of the open windows, or anything that I have placed on my desktop. Any ideas as to how to solve this issue?

Hello cor-el, thanks for your reply. I changed my settings for downloads to desktop and it has appeared on there. When I double click I am asked which program I want to open file. I click firefox and another box "opening install" says I have chosen to open the file which is an application and do I want to save it. This is the only real option so I press save file. I get a box saying this is an executable file which may contain viruses - do you want to run. I press ok and the final box showing C drive file name and desktop appears stating application not found.
This happens the same whenever I try to install.
To my untrained eye the application is not being recognised as an application and I cannot work out how to get it to do that.
My plugin is still showing as out of date.
Is there anything you could suggest. Thanks for your time.

My mac's desktop is gray, the dock wont show up, nor mission control or launchpad work. What should I do

I recently logged in to my mac and while the finder relaunched it got frozen and is now gray. The dock does not show up or work. The launchpad doesnt work nor does mission control. I can only open applications from a finder window. The apps dont even work in fullscreen. Ive tried restarting it, logging in to another account, and booting in safe mode. None work. I will try to move my things to my other computer for the time.
What should I do?

Can I "lock" just one out of my four displays in mission control.

I have a Mac Pro (2013) with 3 monitors and my projector hooked up. I use the projector primarily for videos and entertainment, while i use the 3 monitors for work space. I use up to 6 desktops in mission control and prefer to lock them so they all move together as when when I switch, however then the video is only able to on the projector for ONE of the of those spaces. Is there a way to lock the projector to be independent from the other 3 monitors so i can keep the video on there at all times?
The other issue i have is with FULL SCREEN, it grays out all my other screens and is completely worthless when you have a multiple display setup. How can i make VLC go full screen without this issue?

Eric,
I personally find the Encrypted Disk Image method the most effective means to secure the contents of a folder that other shared users are unable to open. Do not give them the password for this encrypted disk image.
Apimac Secret Folder for Mac, and PuzzlePalace also have have good reputations.

How can i use my pictures for Mission Control Spaces in Lion?

How do I get a chosen selection of my own photos to be available for use as desktop pictures, with a different one for each Space in Mission Control in Lion?
I have a new Macbook Air, Thunderbolt display and Lion.

As long as your Office for Mac is 2011, you will have no problems using the programs. If it is the Office for Mac 2008 version, there have been some mixed reviews. 2004 will not work at all.
I have the 2011 version and have not had any problems since upgrading to Lion.

How do I add multiple photos to mission control for my desktop?

How do I add multiple photos to my desktop thru mission control. I have a 5 year old 23" iMac.

Of course you can add multiple photos from then Mail app but you can select multiple photos at once in the Photos app

Can I Share Specific Mission Control Desktop?

I am looking to share only a specific Mission Control desktop on another Mac. I am including a screenshot graphic because it's difficult to describe.
As you can see, I have 4 Mission Control desktops, and want to screen share the red one only with a different Mac.
Does anyone know how this might be done, or recommend an extension that could facilitate this?
Mac OS 10.7.5 Lion.
Thanks.

Other wise use a USB thumb drive or a HDD to transfer them.
