Screen Capture Not Working Properly Since Upgrade

The following keyboard shortcut does not work on my laptop:
Command + Shift + 4 + Spacebar
When I have an external monitor connected, in mirrored mode, it doesn't work. If I disconnect the monitor or change the monitor arrangement into extended mode, it works fine. All the other shortcuts (e.g. CmdShift3) work fine.
Anyone else have this problem?

OK, I've got a Mac Pro with an ATI Radeon X1900 card and two displays: an Apple 30" and a very old Apple 23" Cinema Display. The latter is attached using the very expensive Apple converter. I just put them into mirror mode and CommandShift+4Spacebar worked fine. If someone at Apple tried to duplicate the problem with whatever hardware they had on hand and got the same result I just did (namely it works), then they would conclude there is no inherent bug in the OS regarding mirrored displays and screenshots. There are two other possiblities:
1. Something is conflicting in your installation of the OS
2. There is a bug in the OS, but only for some particular hardware configurations
To eliminate the first possiblity the only thing that can work is for you to do a new installation of the OS on your hardware and see if the problem is still present. So in this case a re-install is not a frivolous suggestion.
There is one other thing to try: create a new test user, leave it as Apple creates it, log into that account and try the screenshot shortcut. That will eliminate some peculiarity associated with your regular account. Of course, it doesn't eliminate the possiblity that something is wrong with the OS as installed, or that something you have installed that is available to all accounts is causing the problem.
You might also try a Safe Mode boot. Problem is that disables everything not strictly necessary to run the computer, and I'm not sure whether the extension(s) necessary for dual displays and screenshots would work correctly, but it is certainly worth a try. Hold down the Shift key when you hear the startup chime, and wait until you see the login screen with the "Safe Mode" message (the boot will take longer than usual). Login and see how (or if) things work.

  • Magic Trackpad not working properly since upgrade

    Since I upgraded to Mountain Lion, my Magic Trackpad hasn't been working properly. Specifically, the 4 finger gesture to switch between full-screen apps and the 2 finger gesture to open Notifiction Center stop working after awhile. From what I can find out it seems to be connected to my iMac going into sleep mode. I have a feeling this is a bug that Apple needs to fix. Besides going through Restart or into Terminal Mode, is there anything else that can be done?

    Thanks for the information. Unfortunately, I still have to restart the computer to do this and as soon as it goes to sleep again, I'll have the same problem.

  • Cmake not working properly, since upgrading system. [SOLVED]

    Since upgrading my system yesterday Cmake doesn't seem to be working correctly. It doesn't seem to be finding files that a build requires, even though they are in /usr/include. I've been able to reproduce this on a few packages, now.  I've just produced it again, while trying to compile compiz from sources;

    NOTE: Before the upgrade, compiling with cmake worked just fine, including this very source code.
    I'll see if i can remember what other packages were giving me grief, and post them as well. ~ if i manually specify the complete 'include' path for things like CompizCommon (in CMakelists.txt) , i do get past the issue. However, like i said - this wasn't a problem before upgrading, and i shouldn't have to manually put in the full paths. something is wrong.
    any help is appreciated

    Noah, downgrading to cmake 2.8.7 is quick way around the problem.
    Thanks for this, Rufflove.
    I just got in the door, so i think i'll downgrade cmake.

    EDIT: Yup, That's seems to do the trick. 2.8.7 works OOTB, 2.8.8 does not.
    I've also mentioned this to Sam. (in case, it turns out that they need to change some stuff for that version).

  • Real Player not working properly since upgrade to Snow Leopard

    Ok, before I start, I know RealPlayer is not an Apple product, but I am not premium Real content subscriber, and I don't expect to get any support from Real on this matter.
    I only use the player to listen to BBC Radio which is vital to me as I live outside the UK.
    The problem is that since I upgraded to Snow Leopard, the streaming bit rate won't go above 21kbps which obviously reduces the sound quality. I checked what it was doing in Activity Monitor, (version 11.0) and it is not 64bit. Could this be the cause of the problem?

    RealPlayer is a 32-bit application, but that shouldn't be a problem. It should run on Snow Leopard as well as it did on Leopard. It plays BBC Radio at 45Kbps on my Mac. Do you have the latest version (11.1.0)? Check the speed settings in its "Connection" preference.

  • My music app on my iphone 5 is not working properly since I downloaded ios7.

    The music app on my iphone 5 is not working properly since I downloaded ios7.
    Sometimes I start to use the music app and then part way though a track it stops. I try to re-start it with no joy. I'm also finding the touch screen is less responsive. Can any help me fix the issue or will I need to take it into the store?

    Removing the SIM has no affect on the power of the phone. It is just the part that facilitates connecting to your carrier. Try holding the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo on the screen and then release the buttons. The phone should reboot. You may need to hold the buttons together for 15-30 seconds.

  • FireFox auto updated to 6.0 this weekend and has not worked properly since. I have uninstalled and reinstalled. Made sure all windows componets were up to date and still no joy. Any idea? Windows 7, 64 bit, normal configfuration. It is extreamly slow.

    FireFox auto updated to 6.0 this weekend and has not worked properly since. I have uninstalled and reinstalled. Made sure all windows componets were up to date and still no joy. Any idea? Windows 7, 64 bit, normal configfuration. It is extreamly slow and never finishes loading ANY page.

    I have had a similar problem with my system. I just recently (within a week of this post) built a brand new desktop. I installed Windows 7 64-bit Home and had a clean install, no problems. Using IE downloaded an anti-virus program, and then, because it was the latest version, downloaded and installed Firefox 4.0. As I began to search the internet for other programs to install after about maybe 10-15 minutes my computer crashes. Blank screen (yet monitor was still receiving a signal from computer) and completely frozen (couldn't even change the caps and num lock on keyboard). I thought I perhaps forgot to reboot after an update so I did a manual reboot and it started up fine.
    When ever I got on the internet (still using firefox) it would crash after anywhere between 5-15 minutes. Since I've had good experience with FF in the past I thought it must be either the drivers or a hardware problem. So in-between crashes I updated all the drivers. Still had the same problem. Took the computer to a friend who knows more about computers than I do, made sure all the drivers were updated, same problem. We thought that it might be a hardware problem (bad video card, chipset, overheating issues, etc.), but after my friend played around with my computer for a day he found that when he didn't start FF at all it worked fine, even after watching a movie, or going through a playlist on Youtube.
    At the time of this posting I'm going to try to uninstall FF 4.0 and download and install FF 3.6.16 which is currently on my laptop and works like a dream. Hopefully that will do the trick, because I love using FF and would hate to have to switch to another browser. Hopefully Mozilla will work out the kinks with FF 4 so I can continue to use it.
    I apologize for the lengthy post. Any feedback would be appreciated, but is not necessary. I will try and post back after I try FF 3.16.6.

  • Music/iTunes Match not working properly since update to iOS 7

    Music/iTunes Match not working properly since update to iOS 7

    Try a Restart. 
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
     Resetting your settings
    You can also try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it.
    Or if this doesn't work and nobody else on the blog doesn't have a better idea you can contact Apple.

  • Tecra M5: finger print sensor is not working properly since a drink was spilt into the keyboard

    My finger print sensor is not working properly since a drink was spilt into the keyboard. When booting up, it automatically "fails" 5 times in a row (without any attempts to swipe a finger), then defaults to password entry to boot the machine's hard drive.
    This is not a problem and all i want to do is disable the finger print sensor, but cannot work out how to do this. I've tried uninstalling the driver, which I seemed to do without any problems, but when rebooting, the sensor still seems active, and still goes through the same process.
    Everything else works fine and this is just a minor niggle, but I'd like to remove the annoyance of it beeping at me 5 times while it does its thing!
    Can anyone tell me how I completely disable it?
    Thank you.

    Have you removed the fingerprint software? If yes check if in device manager is listed some unknown device. Please post the result.
    Maybe you can try to disable this unknown device and it will not be recognized as new hardware every time when you start the notebook.

  • Camera lock screen iPhone 5 not working properly after upgrade to iOS 8

    After I installed iOS 8 on the iPhones 5 of my and my wife's the camera on the lock screen isn't working properly anymore. When I swipe up, the camera starts but the screen turns black within less then a second.
    On the iPad 2 and the iPad Air (both upgraded to iOS 8) I don't have this problem. It seems to be iPhone 5 specific.
    Has anyone else experienced this problem?

    Having the same problem.  I'm on an iPhone 5 and I have updated to 8.0.2.  When I go to apps directly from the lock screen (timer, calculator, camera) it opens up then immediately turns into a black screen.  It appears that removing my passcode fixes this bug, but I can't have an unsecured phone.  Please help Apple!

  • Z2 double tap to wake up the screen is not working properly when taking it out of pocket

    when i take my phone out of my pocket, the double tap function is not working properly, sometimes i have to  tap over and over to wake up the screen. 
    do you know why? does same thing happen to yours ? 
    and please dont tell me not to use it. i have paid 700$ and i have right to use my phone fully functioning.  
    any advice ?

    Actually it needs some practice, you need two gentle taps on the upper third of the phone (around the place where the clock shows on lock screen), tapping too hard or tapping on the lower part of the phone will require repeating the tapping more than one time. This is from my personal experience.

  • Trackpad Not Working Properly Following Upgrade to Windows 7

    I recently did an in-place upgrade from Vista 32 bit to Windows 7 32 bit on my Lenovo T61p. I also updated all the Thinkvantage drivers and software and have been checking daily for additional updates. Following the upgrade I noticed that the trackpad is not working properly. When I'm typing an email message in Outlook 2007, the trackpad and buttons will not work in the body of the message. I can click on the icons in the ribbon, but nothing works in the body of the message. Same behaviour in MSWord 2007 and Excel 2007. I uninstalled and re-installed both the Ultranav drivers and software utility, using the Windows 7 32 bit versions posted on the Lenovo website, without any improvement.
    I contacted Microsoft technical support and spent an hour on the phone with a Windows 7 technician. He concluded that the problem was with the trackpad driver and was Lenovo's responsibility to address. I then contacted Lenovo technical support and the technician said there was nothing he could do to help me. Disappointing response from both organizations. I've reverted back to the Windows PS2 mouse driver for the time being.
    Any suggestions would be most appreciated. Thanks

    In fact, the problem could be due to the installation of Client Security Solution 8.3 for Windows 7 (http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?sitestyle=lenovo&lndocid=MIGR-73785). It has been discussed here: http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Windows-7-Discussion/CSS-8-3-64-bit-WIN7-Office-2007-Mouse-issues/td-p/1...

  • Plug and play speakers not working properly after upgrading to Windows 8.1

    After upgrading to Windows 8.1, my plug and play speakers do not work properly.  I have uninstalled and reinstalled them, and restarted.  When I try to play music, nothing comes out.  If I turn them off and back on, music will play for approximately 30 seconds, only from one speaker, then it turns off and fades to no sound.  They worked fine until I upgraded to Windows 8.1.  The manufacturer has not been able to successfully assist me.  Has anyone else reported a similar issue after upgrading OS software?  Any suggestions?  These are fairly new speakers, less than 2 years old, and not used very much.  I do have them installed via a K-V switch, and all other devices linked to the K-V switch are functioning properly (monitor and wireless keyboard).  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
