Cannot re-share my screen again during a call

Hi! I'm using the latest Skype version for Mac and having a quite strange problem - during a call if I shared my screen, then my partner shared his one and I want to reshare my screen again I just cannot do that - my partner see that it is loading and nothing more happens. I need to recall to share my screen again and this is annoying. Can you please help to solve this issue?

Hi,
Are you using the latest Skype 7.5?
Do you happen to know which Skype version your call partner is using and if they are running the latest Skype version available for their platform as well? The universal download link for the latest Skype installation is www.skype.com/go/download

Solution to Unresponsive/Blank Screen After/During a Call

Hi all,
I upgraded to iOS4 on my 16GB 3GS and for the past few days my screen has been switching off in calls and then not coming back on again when taken away from the face. This also left the screen blank, after clicking the power button 5 times it woke up, however the touchscreen was unresponsive. I would have to restart it to get it working.
I tried to search for a solution for this and there was advice about restoring and resetting the settings. I carried them all out but with no luck.
After a little bit of lateral thinking I had an idea.
So I took the screen assembly off and then the proximity sensor assembly. I then cleaned the glass where the proximity sensor "sees" through the screen. After this it has started working and hasn't failed once. I believe that it is because the iOS 4.01 update changed the sensitivity of the proximity sensor due to the problems with the iPhone 4's proximity sensor. And hence a slight bit of dust would alter the more sensitive proximity sensor's readings.
Hope this helps somebody, do let me know if my logic above is completely off.

1. On call, when you bring your phone near to your ear, the Proximity sensor recognises your ear and turn off the screen so that there is no unwanted inputs as the screen touches your skin. But when you pull it back, it turns the screen on again, but it takes 0.5-1 second to the Max.
If it takes longer, make sure there is nothing in front of sensor (it is placed on top left), like Plastic lamination, some accessory, dust or while you pull off your phone, your finger should not be there.
If it still takes longer, better make your device checked at Nokia Care. If found some problem, they will change the sensor.
2. The mail app is working perfectly fine for me on Wi-Fi. You should try loading some websites in browser, if it takes longer, check network strength, it should be strong on 2G internet (Personal experience- BSNL 2G, residing near Network tower, slow like hell, in INDIA). Try changing provider.

IOS 4.3 - screen locked during incoming call

Hello, all!
I have interresting problem after I update iOS 4.2 up to iOS 4.3 on my iPhone 4. Sometimes (1 time per each 10-20 times) when incoming call is received, ipone playing the ringtone, vibration is generated and I see on display usually information "incoming call from..." and slide button to receive call - then touch screen of iPhone becomes fully locked and I can not receive the call ! Hardware pushbuttons (power and volume control) still working, but display is fully locked! In this case it is only one way to answer the call - using bluetooth headset. Any other way and any other operations have no any effect - iPhone still playing rington and still waiting when I answer the call.
This situation occurs aproximately on every 10th or 20th incoming call - i.e. one or two times per each day. And, of cource, this is usually very important call that i can not answer because of this stupid situation.
The problem was detected after I update iOS 4.2 up to iOS 4.3 via iTunes.
So, please tell by wich way it is possible to fix this bug and where I have to send notification to solve this problem in the shortest time?
Thanks!

I'm experiencing what is I believe to be the same issue with my iPhone 4, and have been suffering in silence for about a week.
iPhone 4 model MC603X with Modem Firmware 04.10.01, 16Gb, cheap silicone cover, Vodafone NZ as my carrier.
My screen locks after 1 minute of inactivity as it should with my settings. Perhaps 1 call in 5, or 1 call in 10, the screen wakes up and displays called ID information etc correctly, but I cannot swipe to answer the call. The touch screen simply fails to respond.
If I push the power button briefly to silence the ringtone, this does not make a difference. The iPhone has to be locked (and screen turned off), then push a hardware button to wake up the display, and then I can swipe to unlock the device.
This is only since iOS 4.3 and unfortunately iOS 4.3.1 has not changed this behaviour.
Any advice appreciated.
Cheers, Mike

Display screen off during phone calls

Hi Sony, lately my Z1 compact switches off display during phonecalls even when pulled away from my ear thus before setting the power button as an "end calls" option I could not end calls as my display screen is off for close to a minute... What can I do?

@252293 - If you have a case or screen protector attached, please remove it and tell me if the problem continues.
@Robertnaples - In your case I can only advise you to speak with your local Xperia Care team as your handset may require further assessment.

My screen dims during phone calls but doesn't come back on after

It seems for the past several weeks my phone seems to dim when I put it up to my ear to take a call but then the screen does not come back on when I take the phone away from my face like it is supposed to. The screen seems to dim if anything comes within 3 or 4 inches of the sensor but the screen never comes back on and I have to hit a button.
sorry if this is re-hashing and I am sure there are others with this issue but frankly I can't seem to get this forum to search and come up with anything so I decided to start a new topic.

Did you try pressing the power button briefly?

Screen Locking During Screen Share Access

When I access my iMac from another Mac using Screen Sharing my iMac system is then open for anyone walking by to access. Is there any way to use Screen Sharing for access and keeping the physical screen on the system being accessed locked? I know there are ways to do this using a third-party VNC, but that requres using a non-standard port for access. Is there some working-around for Screen Sharing, or perhaps some way to change the port that Screen Sharing is using (and if so, does this work?)???
Jim

I don't understand what you're asking here... about the screen locking during a call "over the time" set.

Skype for Business - Cannot see shared screens, but I can share my screen

I just started a new job and am required to use Skype for Business. I downloaded Skype for Business 32 bit. My PC is 64 bit but because I already have other Office 32 bit programs, I cannot install the 64 bit version. Everything in Skype for Business appears to work properly, except for the fact that I cannot see someone else's screen when they've shared it with me. When someone shares their screen with me, all that I can see is the empty white box where their desktop should be. When I share my screen with others, they can see my desktop correctly. What other information is needed to help diagnose this issue? I really need this functionality in order to do my job properly. Thanks in advance for your help.

I was using Lync as part of the offerings found on Office 365 and I was prompted to "upgrade" to Skype for Business and so I did per the suggestion. Lync had screen sharing, Skype for Business currently does not have screen sharing! This is a major dissapointment. Who is the product manager and why the premature roll-out? This is incredebly frustrating as most all my clients leverage Lync (their own install on their servers... have not upgraded yet.. lucky for them) and screen sharing is an important part of my interaction. It took many of my clients a long time to master Lync and therefore, it is incredebly challenging to teach them how to use an alternative tool over the phone. I feel incridebly duped. My clients can share with me however, I cannot share with them. What is the current timeframe for enabling (re-enabling) this functionality? How can I get back Lync? Is there a beta release of the next version? Finally, how can this be called "Skype for Business" when a core aspect of the tool to conduct "business" had been stripped away without warning?

I've downloaded osx lion but cant install, it says cannot verify maybe corrupted or tampered during download. And I try to download again but it can't. No more download menu. It just appear " installed"

Can't believe no one tried to help you. If it is saying it's installed, have you tried to reboot while holding CMD and R together? it'll take you to the partition of Lion that has the install information, try re installing your os after verifying the disk in disk utility (also available after hitting cmd R). Instead of a disk, Lion makes a partition in your main HDD/SSD. The idea is you'll never have to boot from your original CD again.

Cannot share my screen but can share others

I am trying to screen share with my sister. She can share her screen with me, but I can't with her - the option for me to share is light grey. I also can ask to share hers, but she can't ask to share mine.

IN the toolbar menu under video at the bottom of the menu make sure you have the item labeled "Screen Sharing Enabled" checked. This will solve your problem.

How do I get Share my Screen to work?

I'm trying to share my screen iMac to MacBook. Both on Mountain Lion. Under the VIDEO drop down Screen Sharing on both computers is checked off. In SYSTEM PREFERNCES > SHARING, Screen Sharing is on. Yet, I cannot share my screen, or share the screen of my friend via Messages.
ANY IDEAS HOW TO FIX???

HI,
The @me.com, the GoogleTalk and Bonjour accounts should all be able to do Screen Sharing in Messages.
The other end does have to be using either iChat or Messages as well.
It does need to be On at your end but does not have to have the System Preferences > Sharing option Enabled (Uses the same engine (Apple Remote Desktop) only)
It may pay to go to the General section of the Preferences for the App and Untick the line that gathers the 3 Buddy List in to one.
Then highlight each Buddy List in turn and then check the Video Menu > Screen Sharing again as it may be an issue with one account that is crossing over when they are linked.
The next reason could be your Internet Speed.
Messages "measures" this at the app start up
It can get "confused" as to the speed if you have it starting up at the same time as the Mac because of the things the OS does in starting up and creating the Internet connection.
Also check Messages Menu > Preferences > Video section > Bandwidth Limit.
This should not be set at the 200kbps (it is too close to the minimum of 128 needed for the Screen Sharing if your service varies)
Of course it could be your service is too slow.

Adobe Connect will not allow presenter to share their screen

Hello,,
I need your help.
I had to cancel a virtual Photoshop users group meeting last week because Adobe Connect had some problems with allowing our presenter to share his screen. By the way he was using a Mac OS.
We could hear him but Connect crashed every time he tried to share his screen. We tried on every browser to include Safari. Opera, Firefox and Chrome. His bandwidth was impeccable for a home user at 63 megs/sec .
Any suggestions and help on this would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much for taking the time to assist on this.
Stephen Burns

Hi Nikhil Sharma,
We had another Connect meeting today and I need some insight from you on Adobe Connect. For the last 3 meetings that I conducted using Adobe Connect my presenters audio just drops away in the middle of the guest’s presentation. This issue has been consistent for all of my Thursday evening meetings. By the way, my presenter’s bandwidth surpasses the expected speed that Adobe Connect requires.
I have used Adobe Connect quite a bit and love it but my last 3 User group meetings were frustrating due to the presenters audio just dying . Once again, all had more than acceptable bandwidth. Most were 30 gbits on up. One person was 60 and higher and the same thing happened to them.
During the meetings I have myself and one other person as hosts and our audio is never affected. It’s only the presenter who is affected.
Are the User group managers being limited to a certain bandwidth? I have had this consistent issue for the past 3 months.
What do you think is most likely going on?
I hope that you an assist with this. My cell is 901 494-0553.
Thanks for your help.

Weird Problem - can only see Mac in "Share my Screen"

I've been having a strange problem that I think might have something to do with OpenGL, but I'm not sure. I think it might be because I've gotten some error messages that said that OpenGL wasn't available or working properly.
When I boot my mac, I have a hugely corrupted screen (gray with green stripes) which doesn't change at all. However, I can hear things starting up, and when I use "Share my Screen" from my MacBook, I can see everything, and the computer runs just fine.
I've tried attaching a different monitor; it looks exactly the same, and both monitors run perfectly when attached to other computers.
I tried taking out all the cards and things, wiping everything down, and putting them back. No change.
I tried booting in Safe Mode. It never actually booted. (I left it to try for about 20 hours before I gave up.)
I've tried resetting the PRAM, and that didn't help. (Before that, I had scattered green dots, and a fractured apple logo, with the widget that showed the computer was loading, until the point where the screen should turn blue, when it would freeze. Now I just have green stripes.)
I've tried to reinstall the original system, but when I attempt to boot from the CD, I get a kernal panic. This is true, no matter what CD I attempt to boot from.
I've opened the computer as a Firewire Drive (using an older Macbook) to change the system from there; but you can only install the stystem on the boot drive from the disks I have. While I was running it like this, the Firewire icon showed up just fine on my monitor, white on the gray with green stripes.
I've tried upgrading to Lion (I was using Snow Leopard) and was able to do it, but that didn't solve anything.
I don't appear to have the Lion reboot partition. At least, if I do, I don't know how to find it. The keyboard shortcuts don't do anything as far as I can tell. Since I cannot actually see anything on the screen until the comptuer is fully booted, so it might be there, but invisible.
Unfortunately, I didn't try the old install disks until after the Lion upgrade. Now, if I try to just install from the disk (using Share my Screen, so I can see what I'm doing) I'm told that I can't.
When I run Disk Utility, it says everything is fine.
The computer is due to be replaced in October anyway. Should I just give up and get the new one now? Or can any of you think of anything else that I might be able to try? Everything is totally backed up, so if I need to wipe my disks, that's not a problem.
The computer is a
     Mac Pro
     2 x 3 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon processor
     4 GB 800 MHz DDR2 FB-DIMM memory
     NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT 512MB Graphics card
     OS 10.7.4
Thanks for any help you can give me. I'm at my wits end!
Robin

Hi Robin,
The no boot in Safe Mode is a big clue, generally a serious Hard Drive problem, but can be others.
Are you saying the blotched screen showed up fine in Screen Sharing? If so the problem is downwind of the Video Card/VRAM, & you seem to have eliminated the Cable & Monitor, so I'd quess Logic Board most likely.
On the HDD problem, try Zeroing the drive while it's in Target Mode...
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
   2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
      *Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
   3. Click the Erase tab.
   4. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
   5. Select that iMac volume.
   6. Highlight the drive, select Partition Tab, then Format type... MacOS Extended Journalled, select the Security Options button, choose Zero Out Data one pass, Erase... after completion do a new install... after completion hopefully you'll be able to get a good install.

Ix2 fails to respond, cannot get past login screen

I am having intermittent problems with my Iomega ix2 failing to respond. After some time being on the drive fails to respond. I cannot open any files through Windows explorer. If i attempt to connect using the web interface i cant get past the login screen. I put in my user name and password and hit enter. The page simply reloads the login screen. The only solution is to power the drive down using the button on the back of the unit. Powering it up it works fine. Eventually though this will happen again. It's happened a half dozen time or more in the last few days. Now I'm stuck out in the field and cannot access any files. Please help.

No. No errors in the event log of any kind other than the time sync error. I recently replaced one of the disks as it had failed. I receieved a warranty disk from Lenovo/Iomega about a month ago. i installed it and it rebuilt the RAID with no problems. This error has been happening since then. When the time sync error happens i get all kinds of strange behavior. SFTP, which is how I access the files, will start giving Goodsync 'cannt reach end of file error' type errors. Like I've mentioned before I also get an issue where the web login screen gets caught in a loop too. I type in the user name and the password, hit enter, and it just reloads the login screen again. Rebooting the device from the power button on the back is the only solution.
