Change the desktop background colour of Acrobat 9 Professional?

Is it possible to change the desktop background colour in Acrobat 9? The reason I ask is we are supplied newspaper ads and sometimes they have a black keyline on the border of the PDF.
The dark background on the desktop can make it difficult to see a fine keyline. We were previously using Acrobat 7 Professional which had a white background.

Doesn't work
^ ^
Obviously, I can't, in this particular screenshot show everything.
This is what the fellow is talking about. Naturally if his keyline item is in Black it ain't going to show up In Acrobat previous to 9 all this back Ground was grey.

Hi paulheu
It is not the question of first time posted or second time posted. Whther the issues are genuine or not?
I have checked with othe Lumia 800 also observed same issues.
Do you think that this is the low end phone?
Whatever the issues i have raised all those are very basic requirements. And for your information those are available in normal ordinary phones (symbian os phones).
This is the smartphone having Rs.13000 cost. and i give extra care & respect to my phone.
How can you say that without any homework did i raised the question?
Whatever i mentioned the issues those are only i faced. I think lot more which i have not used/ observed.
And finally could you pls tell me what are the issues are not generally true?

How do you change the slide background colour in the keynote app?

How do you change the slide background colour in the keynote app?

You can't (not in Keynote for iOS). The background color is a function of the template selected when you create the file initially and cannot be altered. the only workaround I know of is to add a graphic file to the slide and position it behind all other content, but this would need to be repeated on any slide you wish to "recolor".

Trying to figure out how to change the desktop background with powershell/batch.

The entire thing I'm doing is pretty pointless lol. But I wanted to prank my mother. This is my computer by the way nothing malicious. I just had an idea that the next time she goes to click and open opera I would have a batch files disguised as it instead
that would just say some things. Mimic deleting files. Kill exlporer.exe. Change the background to one I created saying something like GOT YA! with a troll face or something. And then either run explorer.exe again or shutdown my laptop. I don't really know
what I am doing lol. I have the batch file done but the changing of the desktop has me puzzled. I can have the batch file to replace the current bmp file with one I've made but it doesn't actually change the background. And JFY WPA files just happened to be
where I decided to sit the files for this prank at until I'm done with them.
I used this to copy it over.
copy /y "C:\Users\user\Documents\WPA Files\Internet Explorer W
allpaper.bmp" "C:\Users\user\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Inter
net Explorer Wallpaper.bmp"
I used this to try to get the wallpaper to refresh to show the new one before I found out this doesn't work with windows 8.1
RUNDLL32.EXE user32.dll,UpdatePerUserSystemParameters
I found this but I am not entirely sure what to do with -name or -value or if I need to do anything to them or the others.. Doubt this would even refresh or what ever to make the new wallpaper actually show though.
set-itemproperty -path "HKCU:Control Panel\Desktop" -name wallpaper -value $image
Also found this which I don't get at all..
Add-Type @"
using System;
using System.Runtime.InteropServices;
using Microsoft.Win32;
namespace Wallpaper
public enum Style : int
Tile, Center, Stretch, NoChange
public class Setter {
public const int SetDesktopWallpaper = 20;
public const int UpdateIniFile = 0x01;
public const int SendWinIniChange = 0x02;
[DllImport("user32.dll", SetLastError = true, CharSet = CharSet.Auto)]
private static extern int SystemParametersInfo (int uAction, int uParam, string lpvParam, int fuWinIni);
public static void SetWallpaper ( string path, Wallpaper.Style style ) {
SystemParametersInfo( SetDesktopWallpaper, 0, path, UpdateIniFile | SendWinIniChange );
RegistryKey key = Registry.CurrentUser.OpenSubKey("Control Panel\\Desktop", true);
switch( style )
case Style.Stretch :
key.SetValue(@"WallpaperStyle", "2") ;
key.SetValue(@"TileWallpaper", "0") ;
break;
case Style.Center :
key.SetValue(@"WallpaperStyle", "1") ;
key.SetValue(@"TileWallpaper", "0") ;
break;
case Style.Tile :
key.SetValue(@"WallpaperStyle", "1") ;
key.SetValue(@"TileWallpaper", "1") ;
break;
case Style.NoChange :
break;
key.Close();
[Wallpaper.Setter]::SetWallpaper( 'C:\Users\user\Documents\WPA Files\Internet Explorer Wallpaper.bmp', 0 )
And this to run the powershell script once I have one lol
PowerShell -NoProfile -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Command "& {Start-Process PowerShell -ArgumentList '-NoProfile -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File ""C:\Users\user\Documents\WPA Files\desktopchange.ps1""' -Verb RunAs}"

Haha you're funny. I can't decide if you sincerely want me to learn or if you enjoy my struggle(I'm dumb) and think I'm up to no good. I do enjoy learning though :).
If I thought you were dumb I would have ignored you. I just think it would be more fun for you to find the answers. This is a technical forum and not a free answer forum. It is for people who are learning or who have specific technical
questions. I am dropping you in the "might be learning" bin. If you had asked a specific technical question I would have answered it.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

How do I change the message background colour in mail,(2013)?

I'd like to be able to do this.
I send a lot of photos,(for my biz as an art photographer), and they would present FAR better on aa grey or black background than on the harsh and glaring white background.
I haven't figured out how to create a coloured background template for the Stationary plug, or that might be an option.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciate!

You can't do that, but you can change the visual properties of the display by selecting Apple menu > System Preferences > Displays > Color > Calibrate...

How can I change the sms background colour?

There is no option to change the background color in the messages app, other than selecting settings>general>accessibility>invert colors, but this changes the colors of everything.

ITunes 11 how can the window background colour be changed from white to black in Grid View?

How do I change the window background colour ,in Grid View, from the new, default, white back to the good old, more easy on the eye, black?
Apple did this to us in iPhoto some time ago and had to add a preference for shades of grey other than white. Why didn't Apple learn from this mistake?

It is good to know I am not alone. The first thing I did after downloading iTunes 11 was go into preferences to change the background color. But alas, the option for a dark background is gone. I also was kind of disappointed in the lack of ability to resize the artwork, but not to the extent of some other commenters here.
I will say this though. I love the way the albums expand with custom colored backgrounds based on each album's artwork colors. This looks fantastic. Still it would be nice to accomodate those who prefer to use a dark background for the overall application's theme.
So, Apple, I join with my fellow users in requesting the return of resizable artwork, and the option for at least a dark (or an even further customizable) background color for the overall theme of the application. Thanks!
Godspeed,
Nuckels

How to block changes of desktop background image

I manage a 30-computer Mac lab in a public high school and I would like to prevent users from changing the desktop background image.
As far as I know, there are two ways to change the desktop background image: through System Preferences and by right-clicking an image and selecting Set Desktop Picture.
Blocking System Preferences is easily done through Parental Controls.
But how do I prevent the right-click, Set Desktop Picture method of changing the desktop image?
You can imagine the kinds of images that end up as desktop backgrounds in a high school computer lab.

You might try going to System Preferences > Keyboard > Keyboard Shortcuts. In the left pane select Services, then uncheck the item "Set Desktop Picture" under Pictures in the right pane. Once that's done, block that prefs pane.

How do I change the desktop picture on *all* windows with Lion?

I'm sure I'm just missing a simple setting, but ... I changed the desktop background to something I found I thought I'd like, using right click/use as desktop background. Didn't like it. Went to System prefs to change it, and selected the Pond Reeds pic that comes preloaded with Lion. Great! Except it only changed it to that in one workspace. All the others still have the background I don't like, and going to each workspace, right clicking and choosing "change desktop picture" just shoots me back to the system prefs workspace and doesn't change anything. What's the right answer (It's an older MacBook Pro, but running Lion, just upgraded to it a few days ago.)

Thank you!!! I knew it must be something simple, that I just haven't had time to figure out yet (the day after I upgraded, my son went into the hospital and had to have heart surgery, so I haven't spent a lot of time getting to know Lion.). Your help is much much appreciated!

Change 'Elegant Brochure' background colour

Hi there,
Making a brochure for our wedding (using the option under brochure of 'Elegant Brochure') to go along with the invites. Is there any way we can change the brown background colour to match our wedding's black, red and white theme colour while keeping the pattern in the original colour scheme? Basically just want to change the brown background to a light red.
Thanks for your help.

Click on the panel. Note the little Xs? That means it’s locked. In the Arrange menu choose unlock. Because the panel is a JPEG instead of a shape, bring up the Adjust Image pane and use the various sliders to produce the color you want. It might be a good idea to Lock them again after you change the color.

For some reason, I cannot change my desktop background no matter how many times I delete the "active" folder. It's as if it's locked. Any ideas how I can fix it?

Yes it sounds like you have a corrupted preference file.
The setting you make in individual programs get saved to a Preference file in your Users/Library/Preferences folder.
All you have to do is drag out the old file to the desktop, reboot and load the program and the preference file gets rebuilt without your preferences which you reset.
For your case I beleive the preference file is
com.apple.desktop.plist

How do I change what the desktop background is for new desktops?

I am on OS X Mavericks and I want to change my desktop background so that every new desktop I create has that background, but whenever I change the background, it only changes the background for the desktop I was currently in and all new desktops I create still have the old background. How do you change the background for new desktops?

Create a new Desktop and activate that desktop.
Control click to open the contextual menu>>Change background.
When it opens System preference/Desktop&ScreenSaver but takes you back to Desktop #1, simply drag the SysPreference window to the new Desktop to make the change. You can do this by mission control .

Every time I turn my mac off, the desktop background changes. It always returns to the same picture, which was the second or third thing I changed my desktop to after getting my mac.

Every time I turn my mac off, the desktop background changes. It always returns to the same picture, which was the second or third thing I changed my desktop to after getting my mac. I have background switching unchecked in my preferences, and I have never selected it as an option. Also, when I go to my preferences, it will show the icon of the picture I changed it to, even though the desktop itself has switched back.

I would start with some basic troubleshooting.

You can't go to System Preferences>Desktop&Screen Savers and change the display? Try it and see. I've never seen that problem.
