How do i refresh the screen on the Desktop?

i have multi screen computers, each monitor has a different wallpaper (by setting a pic file as web content)
so, a simple solution to change the wallpaper would be to change the file so that the wallpapers displayed would be different. however, the results will not show unless i hit the F5 button to refresh the Desktop manually.
is there a way to refresh the desktop programmatically?
thanks.

iCloud is not currently available for your desktop. You may be confusing iCloud with the cloud drives available from other developers such as Microsoft and Google.

  • How do I refresh the music in my itunes library?

    How do I refresh the music in my itunes library?  After several days of ripping cd's, merging numerous libraries, and deleting a ton of duplicates, I basically need itunes to start fresh.  Suggestions?

    Well you could just delete everything from iTunes, without deleting the files, and then import the media folder. Or you could delete the iTunes Library.itl file and let iTunes scan your media when it starts up. Or you could use iTunes Folder Watch with its option to Check for dead tracks on startup selected.
    In general it is easier to use iTunes to manage the media folder rather than manipulating things by hand and then getting iTunes to play catch up. I have a script called DeDuper for automatic deduping, see this thread for background

    ie...i want to access the modified data in the session object...

    You don't do that. It should already be reflected.
    Unless you modified another instance of it. If this is the case, then fix your code logic accordingly that it modifies the right object instance.

    How can I use the desktop gmail on iPad2 -
    instead of the mobile version or app?

    Scroll all the way to the bottom of the screen in the mobile site. There is (or at least there used to be) a link to the standard site.
    Really, though, the experience through the Gmail app is much better.
    Best of luck.

    how can u change the desktop and taskbar to a classic windows view in 8.1

    Hi,
    If you mean to customize the desktop, you can use themes, desktop backgrounds, window colors, and screen savers to personalize your desktop.   
    If you want some free themes and desktop backgrounds to use, there are lots to choose from in the
    Personalization Gallery.
    To learn more about personalizing the desktop, see
    Get started with themes.

  • How can we hide the Desktop when Dashboard is invoked?

    Widgets do not display elegantly against a cluttered desktop, nor even against a clean desktop with a busy photo for wallpaper.
    Is there any kind of preference (or etc.) that would cause the Desktop always to go hidden (go black, go solid color, intensely darken or etc.) whenever Dashboard is invoked?
    In other words, how can we stop the Desktop from "bleeding through" the display of our widgets?
    Many thanks.

    Hi ChicagoLarry,
    No way in the system I know of.
    I found this Desktopple Pro widget on this site. I haven't tried it myself and am not a fan of haxies, so use at your own risk.
    EDIT:
    Actually the reviews on MacUpdate are quite positive. There is also a free version Desktopple 1.1

  • How do I change the desktop Icon for an external hard drive?  I have gone to "Get Info" and tried dragging and dropping  several formats of pictures and the icon changes to the generic image of that file type.

    how can I change the desktop icon for an external hard drive.  Using LaCies and Dimple hard drives.

    One of the things I've found with OS X (at least with Snow Leopard, which is my first excursion into OS X), is that all too often the thumbnail displayed on a file, whether a file created or one downloaded, is a false thumbnail. That is, when you do a Get Info on the file the icon in the upper left is the generic icon for that file type, rather than the thumbnail displayed in Finder. Makes it a bit difficult to copy.
    Apparently Finder uses Preview in the background to generate the displayed thumbnail without actually creating one.
    What I've resorted to doing, particularly with graphic images, is to process them with GraphicConverter - I have its prefs set to automatially add thumbnails and previews. With an individual file this means opening it in GC and doing a Save As. However, a much easier and faster way is when there are two or more such files; I put them in a common folder and drop the folder onto GC. GC then opens them in a catalog view, in the process adding real thumbnails and previews to each automatically. Doesn't take long to do several hundred files that way.
