Actually our requirement is, when the system starts, automatically Java Application have to run(this can be done), after that, the application window have to be shown. Currently the Java Swing Application is focussing. From that application, the user is entering username and password, if the username and password is correct then only the user can access the windows desktop previlages or any other resources in the operating system, before that we should not give the rights to access these previlages. If any body gets this: please mail immediately to

Changing desktop pictures locks system preferences

Re MacBook Pro laptop (OS 10.7.5)
Problem: Changing desktop pictures locks System Preferences
If I try to open System Preferences, I get windows for the Change Desktop/Background and the whirling beach ball begins until I go to Activities Monitor to Force Quit System Preferences, which informs me that my "System Preferences is no longer responding."
I have no trouble booting my Mac,
checked my Disk Utility informing me that there are no errors,
checked Permissions without errors,
went to Users>"my name">Preferences>found the plist for com.apple.systempreferences, moved it to my desktop, tried the Apple System Preferences option with same result. Returned plist . Hmm, just noticed that I have com.apple.systempreferences with one directly after Library ( i.e., not in any folder), and the other in the Library>Preferences folder. Could that be the foul up? Perhaps one of these plists is misplaced.
Any suggestions?

First follow the instructions in this support article.
If an iPhoto or Aperture library is the source of your desktop pictures, it may need to be rebuilt, or you may need to update the application to the latest version.
Otherwise, continue as below.
Back up all data.
In the Finder, hold down the option key and select
          Go ▹ Library
from the menu bar. From the Library folder, delete the following item, if it exists:
          Caches/com.apple.systempreferences
and move the following items to the Desktop, if they exist:
          Application Support/Dock/desktoppicture.db
          Preferences/com.apple.desktop.plist
Launch System Preferences and test. If you still have the issue, put the items you moved to the Desktop back where they came from and post again. Otherwise, delete the items.

Hiding windows task bar

I am working on a custom TS operator interface written in CVI 5.5. I am trying to hide the windows task bar. I have used
SetPanelAttribute (panel, ATTR_SYSTEM_MENU_VISIBLE, 0);
and this works, except that when my modelsupport DLL puts a popup on the screen, the taskbar becomes visible again while the popup is present. How can I stop this?

Hi Byron,
I have tried to reproduce the problem you are describing and it seems to work fine for me. One thing I am somewhat confused by is that you say you used the SetPanelAttribute call to hide the "windows taskbar". I believe you are actually talking about the "system menu" that is accessed via the icon on the left side of a window's title bar, as the "windows task bar" is actually the floating menu bar displayed at the bottom of the Window's desktop and contains the infamous Start menu.
Anyhow, I have created an example TS 2.0.1 sequence file that calls a CVI dll which spawns a new thread and displays a panel that has the system menu hidden. If you run the sequence you will see that when the modelsupport.dll displays the modal UUT serial number dialo
g and pass/fail banner dialogs, it does not change the visibility of the system menu displayed by the CVI dll UI. (the reason I create new threads to display the dialog is so that the call to the dll does not wait on RunUserInterface to complete and returns execution to the sequence file immediately).
**Note: The dll project was created in CVI 6.0, and the sequence file in TS 2.0.1, please state what versions of CVI and TS you are using if you want help with a specific version. You do not need TS 2.0.1 to use the dll I created, just simply call the lone function in the dll in a sequence file with the CVI adapter and run the file with Test UUTs in whatever version of TS you have. Since the dll was created in CVI 6.0 you may need to install the CVI 6.0 RTE, which is available on ni.com under the downloads section, and it is fully compatible with previous versions of CVI.
So, just give this a shot to see if you can discern anything from it.

Hiding Windows, fields in adobe forms

Hello,
I am new to adobe forms and presently working on one requirement.
My form got 3 pages, on first page i have one table. i) If the table contains only one row i have to hide the entire page.
ii) On the second page i have Po details and on third page I have SO and FI details. If the tables for PO, SO or FI are empty i need to hide the windows.
iii) Current Page/ total Page no : This field needs to be displayed from second page and once the form repeats for another input value these two needs to be initialized and start counting based on the data extension to multiple pages. Presently printing starting from 1st page.
I have all the flags First_page_flag, Second_page_flag, third_page_so and third_page_Fi flags controlled from print program and are available in the context menu but not on the LAYOUT.
I also tried the following code to hide the page but it didn't work out: (Initialize)
var pdisplay = xfa.resolveNode("Table_PO[*]");
if(pdisplay.value == NULL)
pdisplay.presence = "hidden";
I could able to hide the windows, subforms and fields with out the flag check via java scripting.
this.presence = "hidden"; but don't know how to use these flags in script editor to hide all these.
Can any one help me to achieve these functionalities for which i will be so thankful to you.
Best Regards,
Naresh.

Hi Vibhav, Hi Aravind,
I closed my layout and run the program. But still getting the same error.
For Tables in PAGE 2 and PAGE 3
Anyways I could able to hide the TABLES (Sub forms - Page 2 & 3) now by including and hiding the flags(WV_SDISPLAY, WV_FDISPLAY) in the respective subforms. I have used the following JAVA scripting to achieve this in initialization event:
if(this.WV_SDISPLAY.rawValue = "X")
this.presence = "hidden".
For PAGE hide:
But, in my requirement i have to hide the FIRST PAGE and not the TABLE, if the table(subform) containes one row. I set a flag wv_idisplay in the program. Now if i include this flag under this table and follow the same JAVA scripting mentioned above it is not working.
if(this.WV_IDISPLAY.rawValue = "X")
this.presence = "hidden".
Also, from some of the threads and by the comments of Gold Otto, I could understand that, to hide a Master page, i need to put the condition on it's associated subform and i am proceeding with this logic.
Could you please help me if this is not the correct approach. Also, request you to send me some sample Java Script to hide a PAGE.
Thank You,
Regards,
Naresh.

Hiding Window bar which shows the window name

Can anybody help me in hiding the window bar which shows the window name .

Just curious... why do you guys want to hide the window bar? It would make your application look different from standard applications running on their platform.
Are you aware that you can change the title on the window bar so it reflects the name of your application?

Mac OS X automatically hiding windows?

This has been going on for awhile now, and I am getting really sick of it. First of all, whenever I click on an icon in the dock, other icons of apps that were open become transparent and their corresponding window vanishes. The only way that I can have two windows open at the same time is if I hold the Option Key while clicking another icon, or pressing Command+Tab. This is really ticking me off. There is a screenshot of my problem: http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3199/31334029940aa2c6b75fb.jpg. You can see that the arrows are pointing to the icons that are more transparent than the others (iTunes, Adium, and Cyberduck). I have no applications that I know of that hide windows automatically (ie: Autohide, Spirited Away etc.). I created another user account, and this problem does not affect that one. Any help is greatly appreciated.

That plist file is in your /Library/Preferences folder (these preferences are for all users). The file I was speaking of is in your "home" folder - the one with your username on it. These preferences are just for your specific account. SInce you created a different account and that one didn't have problems, this means the bad files or whatever are likely somewhere in your home account.
If you kill the dock with Activity Monitor it will just quit the dock and then relaunch it. A fresh preference file will be created if there is nothing in the Preferences folder.

Hiding Window in Adobe Reader

Strange Problems - Hiding windows in the Finder

Hi,
Sometimes when I have a Finder window open, say, my Home Folder, and select Cmd-H, it doesn't hide the window, but leaves it open. Strange. For example just did it, but when I tried to Hide the Safari window, it is greyed-out and can't hide it.
It seems that sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Is this normal?

You can't hide everything. If all your other applications are hidden, the last one visible can not be hidden.

Problem with remote desktop and lock screen

I know of the easy way to immediately lock a Mac's screen by clicking the menu bar lock icon from KeychainAccess. This works on every system under my control (rMBP running Mavericks, MacMini with 10.5 and Mavericks). However when I control the Macs via Remote Desktop (currently 3.7.2), that lock icon behaviour changes.
Trying to lock a 10.5 system, the screen inside the Remote Desktop window goes black immediately. Moving the mouse activates the password dialog. That is what I want. Doing the same in a remote Mavericks system, the screen goes to a dark blackish semi-transparent state. Moving the mouse immediately restores the normal desktop view, no password asked. Is this a feature or a bug in Remote Desktop? This change in behaviour must have come in around Lion or Mountain Lion.

Hi
Do you use the Intel Proset Utility to configurate the WLan connection?
Try to configure the WLan using this tool and check if the Wlan would disconnect again.
Im also interesting what Wlan driver did you use?
Did you use one from the Intel page?
If not, check the Intel page for the newest WLan driver version.

Desktop icons locked

I did not change any settings. My desktop icons now are locked in position. Meaning they can not be dragged around on the desktop.. I am using 10.8.5 and have not found the answer through Google. Any ideas what happened or how to chnage it back?
Thunderbolt dipslay if that matters.
Thanks ---

Next step would be to try and repair your permissions.

Desktop Administrator Locked by another user

Lately I have been having a problem making changes to workflow on my primary UCCX 7.0(1)SR3 server. I open desktop administrator and click on "Side A", then login to the desktop administrator site, but each time I get a popup saying that CDA is locked by another user. Am I doing something wrong?

Hi,
There is a bug opened for this but we are still trying to get a clean set of logs to provide to the development team for root cause.
If the problem is still happening, can you please open a TAC case and complete the following:
1. Se the WebAdmin debug level to DEBUG and set the files to 10
2. Set the LRMServer debug level to TRACE and set the files to 10
Try to login to the WebAdmin and get the message that another user is logged in. Wait 15 minutes. Try to navigate to another page like the Enterprise Data Fields page and see if the 'Save' button is activated or if you still get that message.
Collect the following:
1. WebAdmin*.dbg from C:\Program Files\Cisco\Desktop\log
2. LRMServer*.dbg from the same location
3. WebAdmin*.dbg from C:\Program Files\wfavvid\tomcat_appadmin\logs
Turn the Threshold=OFF for the LRMServer after the test.

Desktop Sharing with VNC - hiding local desktop

Is there a way that I can lock the local screen when I remote connect to my mac via VNC? This would be key for me so that passersby aren't able to see my desktop when I'm physically away from my machine.

what about using a Vine server? that works.
The Vine Server trick will work. But it is still a trick. This is really a security issue which Apple should address. They are being compared against Microsoft's RDC, and the reality is that Microsoft as done the right thing in this case (and I hate saying that).
I think I may have picked up that method in one of your posts.
Very good chance
of course, that is not a built in solution.
That is really why I'm suggesting the OP give feedback to Apple. The more request for this as a built-in Screen Sharing feature.

Hiding the desktop during presentations

I often do presentations on a beamer and have at times a messy desktop. My question is, is it possible to hide the desktop, or make it temporarily invisible so people do not see what is all on my desktop. I know I could clean it up, but somehow I like to be able to hide it as it would support my work and thinking style better.
If there is a application to do this a free one would be best.

The freeware utility [TinkerTool|http://www.bresink.com/osx/TinkerTool.html] can do this (in Finder options). TinkerTool has lots of other features as well.
great and thanks, I have TT but hardly use its features, and ddi not realise this was possible.
However, I need to relaunch the finder so not a quick solution. will keep it in mind if nothing else pops up. thanks for thinking with me.
