HT5260 slide show screen saver not working

after I upgraded to mountain lion my slide show screen saver does not load and hols up my screen forever till sometime i have to force quit to be able to do anything else

Old T - I was not trying to use a theme from the default ML new shows. Some time ago - long time - I found out that the old slide screen savers built into OSX, Beach, Cosmos, Nature, etc., had their photos stored in the package contents Resources folder. It was then easy to create my own cusom show, y simple replacing the jpegs, and a little editing on the plist. Those gave you a little more options as well in the setup.
ML did away with all that, and you get Apple's choices and that's all. I did find out where the default "collections" are kept, and it appears that until someone gets a better hack, that I simply did the same thing here.... I replaced the jpegs in the National Geographic Collection with the slides from my old custom collection - actually I added - any Natl Geo shot is a good one!
So while we cannot control the action any more, I still have what I want. Sort of. I suppose I could have just pointed the Ken Burns Effect to the Custom Slides folder I have and accomplished the same thing. I guess I editted the default collection on principle!
Did they reallly need to mess with the Screen savers!!

Screen will not return

when in a phone call if I need to access my screen, to select an option, the screen will not come back. Has anyone had this happen?

QUICKLY press the on/off button on the upper right side of the phone and the screen should return. Do not hold the button in!

Slide Show settings will not hold

I can't get my slideshow to change from the dissolve transition mode to any thing else. I change the transition in three different places, but i still get the same results.
What am I doing wrong?
I'm using Iphoto 6.0.5. My slideshow has about 2000 pics if that might matter.
Thanks!!!!!!!

laturner66:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Try deleting the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist and all of the contents of the User/Library/Caches/iPhoto folder. Then see if those changes will stick.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

My ipad mini screen will not slide to unlock

My IPad mini screen will not unlock. It was fine one minute and the next, I couldn't slide it to unlock it.

Does anything happen when you touch the screen, the slider doesn't get a box around it (which would indicate VoiceOver being 'on') ?
If not then have you tried a soft-reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

Slide Show screen saver

I'm looking for a OS9 screen saver that works like the slide show screen saver in OSX. I have an old Performa that i've upgraded to a G3 and am running 9.2.2. I use it for email, iTunes, and scanning. I'm running a G4 mirror for the rest of my work. G4 has the screen saver of my slide show of my family photos running on it when it's idle. Would be nice to have both screens running the same thing...this is nitpicky i know...
I've seen a lot of 3rd party stuff that "almost does it", or is buggy and makes my Performa hiccup. I'd prefer to use something Apple based...any ideas out there?

I use Screen Gear Pro v3.5 which is available here: http://www.screengear.com.gu/. It's a great app to show your pics (it can also play music) in a screensaver. Versions are available for classic OS & OS X. It's shareware for $15.
Cheers, Tom

HT201412 ipad screen will not slide. Tried resetting and a factory reset but still will not work.

ipad screen will not slide. Tried resetting and a factory reset but still will not work.

I have the same issue on my Ipad Air. Screen will not rotate, I have reset the settings, still only displays in the portrait mode. A couple of interesting things though. a couple of days before it completely locked up into portrait I would have to turn the ipad off and hold it in the orientation I wanted because it would not change orientation after I was in an app.
Also, I just played a Netflix video and it was in landscape mode.
Any ideas?
Thanks,

HT201210 After updating iPhone 4S to iOS 7, the lock screen will not accept my password.

After updating my iPhone 4S to iOS 7, the lock screen will not accept my password and I am locked out of my phone. Anyone else seeing this? What can I do to fix this?

Hello kennyred,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
For more information on this, take a look at:
iOS: Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
Connect the device to the computer with which you normally sync and open iTunes.
Note: If iTunes asks you to enter the passcode, try another computer that you have synced with. Otherwise, go to "If you have never synced your device with iTunes, or you do not have access to a computer" section below.
If the device is still disabled, or if iTunes does not automatically sync your device, sync the device with iTunes.
If you have chosen to encrypt your backup, it will contain the passcode. Disable backup encryption before restoring from backup. Learn more about iOS backups in iTunes.
When the backup and sync is complete, select Restore from Backup and choose the most recent backup of your device.
Best of luck,
Mario

I have a 4th generation iTouch and the screen will not slide to unlock. I have tried resetting it. Any tips?

My iTouch touch screen will not work. When I go to unlock it, to slide the thing on the bottom of the screen, it doesn't even seem to sense that the screen is being touched. Also, because of this, I cannot turn it off because the screen doesn't know I'm trying to slide the power off slide on the screen. I have tried holding the power button and the button on the bottom to reset it, but it didn't help. Is there anything else I could try?

If it still does it after a restore, you most likely have a bad screen digitizer. Contact Apple and get it repaired.

The application called VirusScan that comes preloaded on the macbook will no longer open, claiming that it is corrupt and that I must reinstall it. After looking in the app store it does not appear that said application is available for re-downloading.

Also, I installed MacKeeper about two-three months ago and am questioning its performance. Looking for input as to whether or not this application helps or hinders my system.

I'll back up Csound on the MacKeeper thing. In fact, I actually wrote the following about it:
http://www.reedcorner.net/news.php/?p=245
Remove is ASAP. Do not use the provided uninstalled, as there are widespread reports of pop-ups advertising MacKeeper on your system after incompletely removing it. Try this:

As for VirusScan, Barney is right on the money that it does not come preinstalled on any Mac shipped new from Apple. However you have gotten it, your best bet is removing it. See my Mac Malware Guide for more information that will help you understand and avoid Mac malware without relying on anti-virus software.

Reboot: Press and hold BOTH the power and home buttons at the SAME time for about 10 seconds (ignore the red slider to shut down until the Apple Logo appears, then let go of both buttons and your iPad should restart. You won't lose any data or settings.

After pulling pictures into slide show -- when hit run ... everything is blank

I created a slide show from organizer.
All the pictures are there, pan and zoom selected, etc.   Then when I try and preview it - there is nothing on the scree
n it is blank. the bottom layout shows the movement from one picture to the other but the slide show picture
is not working.   I tried to just take the show to file .. which I did. when i then tried to run the .wmv file .. same thing ...
everything was blank.

This black for the image on the preview screen seems to happen if you are missing some type of Windows authorization or permissions.
Playback in the Slide Show Editor in the Preview seems to require additional Windows authorization or permissions: a black screen in the Preview area while there is movement of the thumbnail images below during playback is the symptom of the problem.
-- running from a Windows userid which has administrator authority usually (but not always) avoids this problem.
-- if the userid administrator authority is not sufficient in your particular case, then try starting PSE by right clickin on its desktop icon and choosing Run as Administrator (which does have a different effect than administrator authority of the userid).
Note: for future reference
For a question like this is good to post both the version of Photoshop Elements and the version of the Windows operating system.
Because this specific problem can happen with both multiple PSE versions and different Windows versions, I went ahead and posted guidance.
