How can I pause the screensaver

How can I pause the screensaver.
I am using osx 10.8.2
Thanks in advance

My screensaver becomes active after 5 mins and displays photos from my iPhoto library.  Before my update to 10.8.2 I was able to pause on a picture  by pressing I think was the down arrow key (to pause and un-pause) and  scroll through the pictures by using the left or right arrow keys the scroll part works still however I am unable to pause. Once I press the down arrow key or spacebar the screensaver comes off.
Thanks again

  • How can I pause the task and resume it in some times?

    Hi all,
      I have been using traditional DAQ for some times and I swtich to DAQmx recently. In traditional DAQ, I can start a task, pause it for a while and then resume the task. But in DAQmx, I didn't see the same function. Is that any way to do the same thingin DAQmx? Thanks.

    Hi PKIM,
    Have you seen this thread?
    http://forums.ni.com/t5/Multifunction-DAQ/How-can-​I-pause-and-resume-analog-output-using-DAQmx/td-p/​...
    The thread details how to create a pause trigger in software. A better option may be to create a pause trigger in hardware. I'm not sure what type of data acquisition task you are doing, but the method should work regardless. Please let me know if you have any questions.

  • How can I disable the screensaver while playing video in fullscreen?

    Hi!
    HTML5 is great and I hope to get rid of Flash as soon as possible.
    That said, something is still bothering me when I play an HTML5 video (on youtube for instance): the screensaver is still on even though I'm full-screen.
    Is there a config I missed or is it a bug within Firefox?
    (I'm using Arch Linux with GNOME)

    Per this comment - https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=517870#c36 - a fix is in the works for Firefox 30.

  • How can you get the schedule of a single reoccurring job with Restart ability in Redwood to pause when it has failed...?

    We need the Request Restart ability when scheduling a single reoccurring job in Redwood. Most of our jobs are scheduled in CHAINs which offers the Final Status Handler on Step level, and the schedule is "paused" when a job in the CHAIN has failed ( the next instance does not populate until the OP MSG has been Replied to) , and once the OPERATOR message is replied to, the CHAIN can resume running again ( desired ) . But we need this same ability when scheduling a single job not in a CHAIN. In our testing, we set up a job with Request Restart chosen on the Error , Killed and Unknown selections on the Restart Behavior Tab. But we found when a job is scheduled say once a day at 8AM, and when it fails, an OPERATOR msg appears allowing a Restart choice ( desired), but the next day's schedule also populates ( undesired) and we do NOT want the schedule to continue on yet because we need a chance to fix the error before the next insance runs for business reasons. So how can you get the schedule of a single reoccurring job with Restart ability in Redwood to pause when it has failed...?

    Hello Fran,
    You can wrap the job chain in a master job chain in the first step and set the final status handler there.
    You can also set the Restart Behavior to 'Stop Submit Frame', in that case you will have to resubmit the job once you are finished troubleshooting.

  • How can i change the settings of play/pause in Elements 13?

    Hello!
    How can i change the settings of play/pause in Elements 13? I definitely need cursor back to the "start play" point each time i hit stop (spacebar), like it works in Sony Vegas or in most of audio editing software. Can somebody help?
    Thanks!

    The following is a copy of the reply that I posted to your question earlier today in the Adobe Premiere Pro Forum
    invasion21
    You are in the Adobe Premiere Pro Forum. What is your program? Is that Premiere Elements 13? If so, you are in the wrong forum where
    Premiere Pro answers may not be appropriate for your Premiere Elements (any version) question.
    You are not going to find what you are looking for in Premiere Elements preference settings.
    You write
    I WANT it playhead jump back to start play position, when i hit spacebar for pause.
    You can maneuver yourself into that through Edit Menu/Keyboard Customization/Applications/ and its Help category which by
    default shows
    Go to Timeline/Clip Start, using Home
    and
    Play/Pause Toggle, using Space
    But, you may find it is best to leave well enough alone. Explore and experiment with changing the keyboard shortcuts for the commands and decide what works for you.

  • How can I change the date on the top of the screensaver on my iPad air?

    How can I change the date at the top of the screensaver?  It still has the date I purchased it.  I tried the date and time and resetting the ipad.

    What do you mean at the top of the screensaver ? If you mean the wallpaper image that you have as your background, and which also shows on the lock screen, then you can change that image via Settings > Wallpapers & Brightness - did you take a screenshot on the date that you bought your iPad, and that screenshot included the date on it ?
    On my lock screen, if that's what you mean by screensaver, then the date that shows below the time is picked up from Settings > General > Date & Time e.g.

  • How can I get the "text" field from the actionEvent.getSource() ?

    I have some sample code:

    import java.awt.event.*;

    import java.util.ArrayList;
    public class JFrameTester{
         public static void main( String[] args ) {
              JFrame f = new JFrame("JFrame");
              f.setSize( 500, 500 );
              ArrayList < JButton > buttonsArr = new ArrayList < JButton > ();
              buttonsArr.add( new JButton( "first" ) );
              buttonsArr.add( new JButton( "second" ) );
              buttonsArr.add( new JButton( "third" ) );
              MyListener myListener = new MyListener();
              ( (JButton) buttonsArr.get( 0 ) ).addActionListener( myListener );
              ( (JButton) buttonsArr.get( 1 ) ).addActionListener( myListener );
              ( (JButton) buttonsArr.get( 2 ) ).addActionListener( myListener );
              JPanel panel = new JPanel();
              panel.add( buttonsArr.get( 0 ) );
              panel.add( buttonsArr.get( 1 ) );
              panel.add( buttonsArr.get( 2 ) );
              f.getContentPane().add( BorderLayout.CENTER, panel );

              f.setVisible( true );
         public static class MyListener  implements ActionListener{
              public MyListener() {}
              public void actionPerformed( ActionEvent e ) {
                   System.out.println( "hi!! " + e.getSource() );
                   // I need to know a title of the button (which was clicked)...
    }The output of the code is something like this:
    hi! javax.swing.JButton[,140,5,60x25,alignmentX=0.0,alignmentY=0.5,
    border=javax.swing.plaf.BorderUIResource$CompoundBorderUIResource@1ebcda2d,
    flags=296,maximumSize=,minimumSize=,preferredSize=,defaultIcon=,disabledIcon=,
    disabledSelectedIcon=,margin=javax.swing.plaf.InsetsUIResource[top=2,left=14,bottom=2,
    right=14],paintBorder=true,paintFocus=true,pressedIcon=,rolloverEnabled=true,
    rolloverIcon=,rolloverSelectedIcon=,selectedIcon=,text=first,defaultCapable=true]
    I need this: "first" (from this part: "text=first" of the output above).
    Does anyone know how can I get the "text" field from the e.getSource() ?

    System.out.println( "hi!! " + ( (JButton) e.getSource() ).getText() );I think the problem is solved..If your need is to know the text of the button, yes.
    In a real-world application, no.
    In a RW application, a typical need is merely to know the "logical role" of the button (i.e., the button that validates the form, regardless of whether its text is "OK" or "Save", "Go",...). Text tends to vary much more than the structure of the UI over time.
    In this case you can get the source's name (+getName()+), which will be the name that you've set to the button at UI construction time. Or you can compare the source for equality with either button ( +if evt.getSource()==okButton) {...}+ ).
    All in all, I think the best solution is: don't use the same ActionListener for more than one action (+i.e.+ don't add the same ActionListener to all your buttons, which leads to a big if-then-else series in your actionPerformed() ).
    Eventually, if you're listening to a single button's actions, whose text change over time (e.g. "pause"/"resume" in a VCR bar), I still think it's a bad idea to rely on the text of the button - instead, this text corresponds to a logical state (resp. playing/paused), it is more maintainable to base your logic on the state - which is more resilient to the evolutions of the UI (e.g. if you happen to use 2 toggle buttons instead of one single play/pause button).

  • IP Job in BW finished, but how can I check the IDoc receive status in BW ?

  • How can i remove the shuffle feature from my nano?

    How can I remove the shuffle feature from my nano?  I apparently "shook" it and now it is on shuffle.  I can go to settings and remove the shake feature but I can't seem to restore my playing options to a generic loop instead of the shuffle.  Help!

    chelseafromco:  I had the same problem and had an awful time before finding a clear explanation of the solution.  Forget the iPod nano 6Gen manual, p. 21; it doesn't tell you how to turn the feature off, just how to turn it on.  Not all of us like randomizing our playlists.  APPLE:  PUT UP AN ARTICLE EXPLAINING SIMPLY HOW TO DO THIS.  Meanwhile, here's what worked for me:
    1.  Go to the "Now Playing" icon and tap the "Play" arrow in the center.
    2.  On the touch screen that comes up (you'll see an eighth-note graphic with the song title superimposed at the top, a Play/Pause button in the middle, and "Reverse" and "Forward" buttons on either side of that), swipe your finger to the left (not to the right).
    3.  This touch screen will have a "Repeat" symbol with two arrows like a snake eating its tail on the left and another symbol on the right that shows two arrows pointing to the right.  This is the "Shuffle" symbol.  Touch the Shuffle symbol so it's white, not blue.  White means that Shuffle is  off.
    4.  To make sure you won't accidentally turn Shuffle on, which you can do by giving the iPod a shake, go to the main Settings icon, cick it and select "Music," then press "Shake to Shuffle" until the button next to it says "Off" (white, not blue).
    Hope this helps.  By the way, in case you were wondering:  The whirling-molecule symbol in the center of the "Now Playing" controls is the Apple "Genius" symbol. This is to remind us that Apple's  manuals are created by people who don't know that customers need  instructions on how to turn things off as well as how to turn them on.

  • How can I get the variable with the value from Thread's run method

    We want to access a variable from the run method of a Thread externally in a class or in a method. Even though I make the variable as public /public static, I could get the value till the end of the run method only. After that scope of the variable gets lost resulting to null value in the called method/class..
    How can I get the variable with the value?
    This is sample code:
    public class SampleSynchronisation
         public static void main(String df[])
    sampleThread sathr= new sampleThread();
    sathr.start();
    System.out.println("This is the value from the run method "+sathr.x);
    /* I should get:
    Inside the run method
    But I get only:
    Inside*/
    class sampleThread extends Thread
         public String x="Inside";
         public void run()
              x+="the run method";
    NB: if i write the variable in to a file I am able to read it from external method. This I dont want to do

    Your main thread continues to run after the sathr thread is completed, consequently the output is done before the sathr thread has modified the string. You need to make the main thread pause, this will allow sathr time to run to the point where it will modify the string and then you can print it out. Another way would be to lock the object using a synchronized block to stop the main thread accessing the string until the sathr has finished with it.

  • TS1702 I have an app that appears to need to be updated. I clicked to update three days ago. It has started to update and will not finish. How can I delete the app while its in the middle of updating?

    I have an app that appeared to need to be updated. I clicked to update three days ago. It has started to update and will not finish. How can I delete the app while its in the middle of updating?

    Locked on an update can mean a couple of different things. So there are a number of things to try, but start with these.
    If you have a "waiting" icon, try tapping on the icon and see if you can pause the update/download. Of it pauses, tap on it again and see if it will resume.
    Try holding down on the icon until all of the icons on the screen wiggle. If the X to delete pops up on the waiting/stalled app -  tap the X to delete the app. Tao,the home button and the apps will stop wiggling.
    You can also try this and see if the downloads will resume. Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • HT201210 how can I cancel the ios 8.0.2 download before it is completed?!

    how can I cancel the ios 8.0.2 download before it is completed .. clicked download by accident! someone please help

    If the speed of your internet connection is slow, this will affect the download time. Also realize that everyone and their mother are trying to download the update as well...servers get taxed to the max and the download can even be slow for those with the faster internet connections.
    That being said, I don't know if it's possible to cancel the OTA (over the air) download. You can effectively force pause it by disconnecting it from your Wi-Fi router until you CAN leave it connected to charge and update. I believe you can go to Settings/Wi-Fi and turn Wi-Fi off from there. Realize though that once you reconnect to your Wi-Fi network, the download will continue.

    how do i delay the screensaver kicking in? I want to have the music function available without havingto constantly press slide to open. Ipod touch.  Thanks

    On the iPod, go into Settings/General/Auto-Lock and set that for the amount of time you want, form the choices given.
    However, a note of caution; this isn't a screensaver function, it's there to prolong battery life. The longer the screen is on before turning itself off, the more battery you are using and the shorter the time before you run out of power.
    There's possibly a better way for you to use you iPod than to keep the screen on. Why are you constantly going into the music function? If it's to select a new track, you could possibly use the Shake To Shuffle feature, which will select a new track at random when you shake the iPod. Alternatively, use the basic Shuffle feature. Or create a Playlist (on the iPod), where you can select the songs you want to play at that time, put them in one list and let the iPod play them.
