  • Cant take screenshot anymore. why?

    it  had always worked but i dont know why doesnt work anymore

    Try a restart.
    Do a backup, using either Time Machine or a cloning program, to ensure files/data can be recovered. Two backups are better than one.
    Try setting up another admin user account to see if the same problem continues. If Back-to-My Mac is selected in System Preferences, the Guest account will not work. The intent is to see if it is specific to one account or a system wide problem. This account can be deleted later.
    Isolating an issue by using another user account
    Try booting into the Safe Mode using your normal account.  Disconnect all peripherals except those needed for the test. Shut down the computer and then power it back up after waiting 10 seconds. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear and again when you log in. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. When you reboot normally, the initial reboot may be slower than normal. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart by using the application un-installer. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don’t do them all at once.

  • Camera works fine; won't take screenshots or save emailed photos to Camera Roll

    I can't make my iPhone 5c (IOS 7) save emailed photos or take screenshots. When I take a screenshot, the screen blinks like it's supposed to, but nothing shows up in my camera roll. Same with saving emailed pictures. Tried restarting and resetting; didn't find a relevant post on the forum. Could someone help?

    I did exactly as you suggested and the phone froze up and acted really funky. So I did a normal power cycle after your maneuver and viola! The camera snapped away click - click - click!!!! Thank you for the help -- as an embedded hardware engineer I wonder what has gone awry with the software.
    As I like to say (usually surrounding some goofiness with Windows) "somewhere there is a software engineer responsible for my misery."
    Thanks again.

  • Can't take screenshot on iPhone 5, iOS 8.1.3 - tried everything already

    Help! My screenshot function is not working too. I have a iPhone 5, oh an iOS 8.1.3 software. I've done everything in previous threads with similar issues. I've pressed it correct and even tried hard reboot by pressing both home and power buttons. I've turned on the accessibility to take a screenshot using the function and that doesn't take screenshots too (so my buttons are working fine). I've also deleted all new apps that I installed after this issue happened.
    What happens: when I press home and power button, NOTHING happens. There is no flash sound or quick flash of the screen that shows the screen was taken.
    Appreciate any help and suggestions!

    Bowtie....
    I see that your question has languished for a couple of hours in a relatively low traffic forum - Using ASC - I have asked our gracious Hosts to move it to Using iPhone where it may get a more rapid response.
    best luck

  • How can I capture and take screenshots of all the browser tabs and not only windows ?

    This class identifies all minimized windows and take a snapshot (screenshot) of them. I want to take screenshots also of all the broswer for example chrome tabs windows that are open but not in the front. Same idea that it get now the minimized windows but
    to get the screenshots of the broswer opened tabs ! What should I change in the WindowSnap class? Since both classes are a bit long I added them to pastebin.com
    What i'm doing now is to get all the minimized windows i mean all the the windows in the back if it's chrome browser windows or open tabs if it's program games other windows. This is what i'm doing in form1 constructor:
    this.listBoxSnap.Items.AddRange(WindowSnap.GetAllWindows(true, true).ToArray());
    int numitems = this.listBoxSnap.Items.Count;
    for (int i = listBoxSnap.Items.Count - 1; i >= 0; i--)
    string tt = listBoxSnap.Items[i].ToString();
    if (tt.Contains(" ,"))
    listBoxSnap.Items.RemoveAt(i);
    listBoxSnap is just a regular listBox1 in my form1 designer.
    And this is the WindowSnap class code, it's a bit long code but it's all connected:
    I'm not sure what to show here from this class what is the most important part so i added all the class code to a link to pastebin.com:
    WindowSnap.cs
    What i'm calling/using in form1 constructor from this WindowSnap.cs class is the GetAllWaindows method:
    public static WindowSnapCollection GetAllWindows(bool minimized, bool specialCapturring)
    windowSnaps = new WindowSnapCollection();
    countMinimizedWindows = minimized;//set minimized flag capture
    useSpecialCapturing = specialCapturring;//set specialcapturing flag
    EnumWindowsCallbackHandler callback = new EnumWindowsCallbackHandler(EnumWindowsCallback);
    EnumWindows(callback, IntPtr.Zero);
    return new WindowSnapCollection(windowSnaps.ToArray(), true);
    EnumWindowsCallBackHandler is:
    private delegate bool EnumWindowsCallbackHandler(IntPtr hWnd, IntPtr lParam);
    EnumWindows is:
    [DllImport("user32.dll")]
    [return: MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.Bool)]
    private static extern bool EnumWindows(EnumWindowsCallbackHandler lpEnumFunc, IntPtr lParam);
    Then i have the class called WindowSnapCollection:
    WindowSnapCollection.cs
    The problem is in form1 constructor i'm getting only 23-24 windows in the listBox1. When i'm doing this two lines:
    this.listBoxSnap.Items.AddRange(WindowSnap.GetAllWindows(true, true).ToArray());
    int numitems = this.listBoxSnap.Items.Count;
    I see in numitems about 30 windows and after filtering i'm getting 20 windows and i checked that's the correct number of opened minmizied windows i have in this example 20.
    Now what i want to do is somehow to get with all this windows in the listBox also all the opened tabs in chrome.
    For exmaple i have only 4 opened chrome windows. But in one of the chrome windows i have almost 40 tabs opened !
    I want somehow to add to the listBox all this opened tabs also as captured screenshots like i'm doing now with the windows.
    This is a screenshot of my program showing what i'm doing and what i get:
    So now i have 19 windows captured in the next refresh it will show 20.
    My question is if there is any way to capture also all the chrome opened tabs in all the windows if any opened tabs are opened at all ? Now i'm getting only the chrome opened windows captured screenshot. But i want to get also the chrome tabs captured screenshots.

    Hi Chocolade1972,
    Since this forum is discussing about Windows Forms general like winform controls, and your issue is related with Windows Desktop SDK, I will move this thread to the more related forum.
    Thanks for your understanding.

  • Can't take screenshots when using external monitor

    I used to take screenshots of areas of my screen all the time using Cmd-Shift-4 but, on my new Macbook Pro, if I have my external LCD screen connected, then any screenshot I take comes out as just a bunch of diagonal shading. It doesn't make a difference whether I take a whole or partial screenshot, and it's the same if I use the Grab utility or the shortcut keys.
    If I disconnect the external monitor, screenshots work fine.
    This is really frustrating, because I use the Cmd-Shift-4 all the time to collaborate with colleagues on designs.
    Any idea if it's possible to fix this?
    David

    OK, this problem has vanished. The only thing I think it might be is that, when I check the colour profiles for each display, they're set to a combination I didn't try when I was trying to fix this issue ("Color LCD" for the laptop and "HW191D" for the external screen).
    Anyway, it's working fine now, so I'm happy!

  • Take screenshot and saves the image to a PNG file

    Hello,
    How can I take screenshot and save the image to a PNG file?
    thanks,
    Avivit.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    this is a quite reproducible problem. Some more clarification on my part might help:
    I have a loop that contains, among other this, (1) a sub-VI that prints-screen and saves as a png and (2) a sub-VI that emails me the png file as an attachment. The 1st sub-VI simply uses the user32.dll to simulate a print-screen key stroke, calls clipbpard get image, and then formats and saves the image to a png file using the built-in VI write-to-png. This loop should update this same png file, because the path does not change. However, I've noticed that while the loop is running the png file does not update. It simply keeps sending the 1st image it took. The image updates if the VI stops and is run again. I assumed the problem was either with the clipboard not updating or the file not writing.
    I think the png file remains open while the main VI (i.e. this loop) runs because I cannot delete the file while the VI is running, only once it stops or is quit. Windows gives me an error that the file is currently in use by labview. Therefore, I think the file is not updated because it remains open.
    I've attached the print screen VI. Feel free to stick it in a loop and give it a try if you don't spot something obviously wrong. I did not include the main-VI that I actually use since it contains a lot of instrument I/O, which would prevent someone testing the VI.

  • How to take screenshots for 4.7" and 5.5" ios devices?

    Hi all,
    I usually create screenshots of my AIR apps using a combination of actual screenshots on devices I own, and screenshots of the standalone player by testing the AIR app on my development machine.
    However, I don't own any of the new 4.7" or 5.5" iOS devices, and the resolutions for those are larger than my screen, so I can't take a screenshot that way.  The screens are 750x1334 and 1242 x 2208 respectively.
    My app is portrait only.
    The standalone flash player automatically resizes down to fit within the screen when it launches. If it didn't, I'd be able to move it around, take screenshots, and stitch the images together.
    Does anyone have any tips? Maybe a way to ensure the flash player window doesn't resize to fit within the bounds of my screen?
    Cheers,
    Peter

    I figured it out
    When running the app locally, need to set <fullScreen>false</fullScreen> to stop the flash player sizing down.
    Then I stacked my monitors vertically instaed of side-by-side (not physically, just in display settings) to take screenshots.
    Hope it helps someone else!

    I have a stikie note in the middle of my book page (library) and I cant take it away. help!

    Try a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. The screen will go blank and then power ON again in the normal way.] It is app and data safe

  • How can i take screenshots in windows media player

    How can i take  screenshots in windows media player.

    If you mean "encrypted", the running Windows Media Player or Windows Media
    Center IN a window and not full screen may allow you to take a screen shot of
    the desktop in its entirety. That can be cropped to just the content wanted.
    Here is an example

  • Was able to take screenshots, now I cannot

    I used to be able to take screenshots while on the Internet. Now I can only take screenshots when I am not using the Internet. I reset Firefox but that did not solve the problem. I believe that after a MS update in August may have changed my settings on Firefox which disabled my ability to take screenshots while on the Internet.

    You can try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.
    *Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"
    You need to close and restart Firefox after toggling this setting.
