Can you snap a picture of the screen when on Facetime?

I was on a video call with my daughter via FaceTime from my iPad to her MacAir and I wanted to take a picture of her and my Grandson as seen on the iPad screen. Is there a way to do this? I know it is possible when using Skype on a PC with a Webcam. I didn't see a camera icon for doing this, so I assume it is currently not possible . Maybe with the upcoming iOS5?

I couldn't get this to work on my iPad 2. I tried this on the home screen and in an App screen and what I got was what you normally get when you hold down the power button... "slide to power off."
What am I doing wrong?

Can I use external speakers with the iPad when using Facetime?

Can I use external speakers with the iPad when using Facetime? How do I do that?

They have to be either plugged in via headphone jack or the dock port at the bottom. If you can. I've used it on apple tv, but that's it. I don't know if the others work, but I don't see why not. Try plugging in speakers in the headphone jack. You will get an answer :)

My ipod keeps taking pictures of the screen when i keep pressing the home button, my ipod keeps taking pictures of the screen when i keep pressing the home button

I broke my ipod a few months ago, but I got it fixed for my birthday. The wake/sleep button was permanently broken though and my ipod still has glithces in which it randomly takes pictures of what is on the screen. These glitches have been small until today when I was using it. When I pressed the home button, it took a picture of the screen and it has been continuously doing that for about and hour now. What can I do to fix it? Please help.

I have an iPhone 3GS running iOS 5.0.1 with this same issue.
When the phone is locked and has been left unattended for a while, sometimes when I first press the home button (to illuminate the screen ready to unlock it) it causes the phone to take screen capture.
My power/lock button is not stuck, as I can use it to lock and unlock the phone as normal. There is however one oddity in that if I power of the phone it cannot be power back on by pressing the power button! To power up the phone it has to be plugged into a charger, which (thankfully) automatically causes the phone to power on.
I'm sure the two issues are related, but I've even after replacing the flex cable that operates the power button, headphone jack, volume buttons and mute switch I've been unable to resolve either the screen capture issue or the powering on issue.
.....it's quite strange

Try connecting it to the computer and restore in iTunes. Or that is what you were trying?

HT1430 How can you reboot your Touch if the screen is frozen and will not allow you to use the "slide to power off"

How can I reboot my Touch when the screen is frozen and I cannot use the "slide to power off" feature?

Next try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

Can you resize monitor to fill the screen?

Anyone know if you can resize the monitor to fill your laptops screen rarther than just taking up a small area of it? I'm guessing you could change the letter box ratio? But I'd like to just resize the window leaving the ratio alone as you would for anything else.
Thanks
Richard

Many Thanks answers part of it - is it possible to drag the side or something to make it fill just the amount you want instead of going to full screen. Sorry my mistake I wasn't clear enough. I'm wanting the screen say to fill most of the the width with out an empty space but still have enough space to show say the recorder controls or something underneath guess you get the drift.
Thanks
Richard

Can you copy a picture in the photo stream

Can you make a copy ot download a copy to mac so if you delete on one device you still have the picture somewhere?

Hi dylansnana,
If you have a Mac, the Photostream should already be on the Mac in iPhoto (presuming that you have iCloud set up on the Mac, and Photostream turned on).

How can you left click anywhere on the screen automatically using applescript

Im trying to create a script that automatically opens up an application and then click on the buttons inside of the application (Note that the buttons that the application uses are not considered buttons by applescript's standards). What I tried so far is this:
tell application "System Events"
click at {724, 490}
end tell
The faults that I can see so far is that I didn't specify whether I wanted to do a left or right click. Please help

When closing firefox with multiple tabs open, how can you make it keep all the tabs when you reopen firefox

In print preview - how can you have multipage previews of the document - 1 - 2 - 3- 6 - 12 page preview and so on so that you can see if the document is ok to print?

WINXP - In Explorer you can have multi-page print previews from 1, 2, 3, 6 upwards to check and confirm that the document will print correctly to your needs - and does this across the screen format as opposed to down the page, so that you can see all 12 pages on your screen to quickly see that the print percentage is correct and all pages fall into the print area and so on - how can you set this up with Firefox, because printing with Firefox is so unstable, you don't know what to expect when printing a document or web page?

No what I mean is how can you see many pages across the screen without having to scroll like in explorer where you can see 12 or more small pages on your screen without scrolling down, like tiled across your screen as opposed to vertical down the page. Thanks

How do I take a picture of the screen on my iPad Air?

Tap the On/Off button and at the same time tap the Home button. The resultant picture will be saved to your "Camera Roll".

Some snaps show up as black screens when I try to view them as single pictures.Even when I run them in slideshows they show up as black screens.These are jpeg files.How can I avoid this happening?

There are several possible causes for the Black Screen issue
1. Permissions in the Library: Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Include the option to check and repair permissions.
2. Minor Database corruption: Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild.
3. A Damaged Photo: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and right click on it. From the resulting menu select 'Show File (or 'Show Original File' if that's available). Will the file open in Preview? If not then the file is damaged. Time to restore from your back up.
4. A corrupted iPhoto Cache: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto folder from HD/Users/Your Name/Library/ Caches...
5. A corrupted preference file: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
If none of these help:
As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?

Just a thought, but maybe consider returning the device. Seems it might be a bit too complicated for you.

Picture can not be resized to fit the screen, so i can only see half of my face when use it as wallpaper!! Suckss!!

There's a bug with the wallpaper. One thing that helps a bit, go to the photos app, find your pic, 'send' it to be wallpaper. You have a bit more control although not all the function you're used to.
No idea when or if Apple will fix it.

Regarding Facetime on my Ipad. I get started on a call and after 10 or 15 minutes I cannot hear whom I am talking to. They can still hear me and I still have picture on the screen but my sound stops working.

Why can't we use Acrobat Pro for mobile devices? Save a whole lot of headaches!!! Now I have to return this subscription.
