How do I save changes to "Energy Saver" that stay in effect after rebooting.

I have changed the sleep settings for the hard disk and display for my iMac but after I shut down and the start up again, the settings are back to the default settings. How can I save these changes and avoid having to do this change every time I boot up?

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device.
Set the Energy Saver preferences the way you want them.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output andWi-Fi on certain iMacs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Check the settings while in safe mode. Have they been reverted? If so, set them again. After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

How do I create a Bing Maps route that stays on a U.S. Route number for tourism/scenic purposes?

How do I create a Bing Maps route that stays on a U.S. Route number for tourism/scenic purposes? I want to go from point a to point b while staying as much as possible on a US route number, such as US 6 or US 20 or US 101 or US 40, (and the defunct
US 66).
Instead of dragging points back to the road every time it pulls you onto a faster route, can I just say "use RT20 as much as possible?"
Or as simple as choosing a point on a US Route and selecting the entire length as a trip. The idea is to plan trips throughout the USA avoiding interstates, and staying on the actual original routes.
I am posting this here at request from Microsoft Support Engineer as a more complex request.

This is already on the feature request list from one other person. This would take a lot of work to implement from a technical side of things. given that only one other person has requested this, there isn't much of a business case for this yet.

How do I stop Photoshop CS6 from asking to save changes to a file when closing the file, after "savi

I save a lot of files to "save for web". After saving PS asks if I want to save changes to the original file. I never want to save the changes to the original. Since the default is to change the file I am afraid I will accidentally OK the change without wanting to. I would like it to stop asking and just not save it. Is there a way?

I never want to mess with originals. I am asking because I want to make sure I stated the question properly in the first place. Thanks.
Then don't work on the original open the file using Photoshop menu file>open once its in Photoshop as a document dupe the document and close the original document. Photoshop will just close the original and not ask it you want to save the original document for no changes were made to it. You could easily record an action to automate this process. The first step in the action would be an inserted menu item menu File>Open. The second step Duplicate Document, third step select previous document the fourth and final step close. The action would look like this recorded Work in the dupe and save it under the name you want to where you want it saved. The First step is an interactive you will be able to open any file Photoshop has support for that you have access to.

My apple streamer keeps on shutting down after 20 mins iv changed the energy saver etc it still does it any help

my apple streamer continues to shut off after 20 mins, Iv vhanged my energy saver and displays, any help

Just to be clear;
Does it only shut down after twenty minutes when your Apple TV is streaming from the computer, or does it shut down after twenty minutes under any circumstances.
When you say shut down, do you mean the computer shuts down, goes to sleep or crashes.

FileReference.save() change the default save location

I am creating an application in flex that downloads a file from the server and saves it to a default location on the server.
such as USER_HOME/CONFIG/FILES folder.
I've figured that the FlexReference triggers the OS, which open the downloads folder by default in the save dialog. [i am not concrete of this ]
but i want to make this default save dialog to open this folder: USER_HOME/CONFIG/FILES
Is it possible using FileReference Class?
i have been trying to find a way to do this from the past one week.
can anyone help me?
Thanks

How will the scheduled changes in DPS affect Creative Cloud Subscribers effective May 01, 2015?

I would think that with Adobe's public announcement to retire DPS SE, the company would have the courtesy to inform its Creative Cloud subscribers, who seemingly will be affected, of the impact the change will have on them. I am calling on Adobe to address its customers concerns without further delay.

Here are two threads to look at:
The end of DPS Single Edition
What is going on with DPS?
Single Edition, SE, apps are available to CC members until 1 May 2015. These apps will remain on the App store but will be unable to be updated after 1 May 2015. That means they will not run on any new version of iOS.
There is now one DPS license. Pricing is done on a per client basis. Click the request for consultation link in Digital Publishing Suite Help | DPS pricing options to receive a price estimate for your projects.
The alternatives to using DPS are using a competing product (outlined in the threads above), using a tool such as PhoneGap (html5, css, javascript hybrid app) or Appcelerator Titanium (native development), learn/hire/contract a developer for native development, and fixed-layout epub.
Others have suggested partnering with someone who was a top tier license to continue to keep your apps current.

How can I keep changes on universal access without it resetting when I reboot?

Hey,
I use universal access on the hearing tab to output sound as mono, however when I reboot it unticks the selection box again?
Is there any way I can get it to stay in mono mode?
Thanks,
Jw

Yes, of course. iTunes was around before there was an iTunes Store. And I think Apple cares MORE that you purchased an iPod, and LESS about where you get your music to play on the iPod.
You can buy music the "old school" way, on CD, and "rip" them into your iTunes library using iTunes.
You can download/buy music from other sources, as longs as the format is MP3 or AAC, and don't use copy protection (DRM). NOTE: iTunes Store music downloads do not use any DRM.
One example is Amazon.com.
http://www.amazon.com/MP3-Music-Download/b/ref=sa_menu_mp3_str1?ie=UTF8&node=163 856011
They offer a utility called Amazon MP3 Downloader, which automatically places your downloads into your iTunes library.
If the source just provides you with the downloaded song files, all you need to do is open a window showing the files or the folder containing the files. Run iTunes and select Music in the sidebar, under LIBRARY. Then drag the songs files or the folder containing the files from its window to the iTunes window, and drop them there. iTunes will add the songs to your iTunes library.
Once the songs are in your iTunes library, you can automatically sync or manually load them onto your shuffle.

How do I create a reader extended quiz that cannot be saved after submitting form

I'm trying to creat a quiz (using a form) that can be submitted via e-mail from the client. I cannot use "distribute form" as this will be used in a factory environment on a shared computer. How do I make the form so the quiz is not saved with the answers filled in?

With FDF, the person reading the file has to have Acrobat. AA7 sounds write, but at this point most folks have that (except for folks like me who have a different version of Acrobat on each machine with 4 through 9).
With Reader, folks can submit a FDF file by e-mail (not preferred and prone to client setup issues) or a web script. You can also use the FDF Toolkit (Adobe download) to manipulate the submitted FDFs if desired. I do not believe that Reader can import the FDF file, but I do not have Reader installed to check on that (actually I could do it at home with my old desktop that has Reader on it -- but no time soon). As far as filling the form out and submitting it with a FDF file, there should be no problem with Reader. As to how far back in Reader versions this is true may be another question. One of the issues deals with keeping out all of the newer features in your form. You might do that by using the Save as -- Reduce File Size or PDF Optimize to put it in a prior version. Be sure to check your form afterwards to be sure it is still functional.
FDF is the standard data output for AcroForms (Designer creates XML forms). The use of the data submission avoids the need to activate Reader Rights that has EULA limitations on the use.
I will let others address the distribution and submission issues, but I think the answer is yes.
For FDF based forms, the form is developed entirely in Acrobat, not Designer. Many folks automatically head to Designer through the forms menu, but it is not necessary. Designer has some advanced features that are useful for some situations, so you have to look at the tradeoffs if you go there. Most needs can be satisfied by AcroForms (forms directly in Acrobat). I have always felt more control of an AcroForm, but I honestly can not give a good comparison. George Johnson gives a lot of comments on forms and can probably direct you to a good comparison or answer specific questions better than most of us. He gave your first response on this discussion. Hopefully this clarifies things a bit.

How to tag graphics w/ a reference number that stays w/ them once uploaded to facebook & instagram?

I would like to tag digital assets (shareable graphics on facebook, for example) so when I go back to them (ON facebook) & save them to my desktop I can reference a number (whether by meta-tags or keywords) to my own billing/coding system. I tried through Adobe Bridge but FB wipes that info out. Anybody have any suggestions?

With Photoshop 7 how can I get text in a layer that is in effect the colours of the layer behindd

Have tried several Google searches but not quite found what I think I'm looking for
My PS7 Bible is also a little lacking on an obvious explanation of what I'm trying to achieve
thanks
Richard

Do you mean something like this:
If you have white text and you set the blend mode to "Darken" or "Multiply" you will see whatever is behind the text. Black text with "Lighten" or "Screen" would give the effect. I added a stroke to the text so it would be visible.

How to add system-wide preferences in RHEL that will take effect for all profiles.

I have used the following docs to try to accomplish my task:
https://developer.mozilla.org/En/A_Brief_Guide_to_Mozilla_Preferences
https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Automatic_Mozilla_Configurator/Locked_config_settings
I wish to add proxy settings for all users, including those who already have profiles. I have tried adding to greprefs/all.js directly, using a mozilla.cfg file, all exactly as in the documents. But none of these things make a difference. Any more quidance would be SO appreciated!
I am using the latest RHEL5.5 and 3.6.13.

Screen saver + Energy Saver (Computer Sleep + Display Sleep) won't work since Mavericks

Howdy,
Sorry to bother you.
My computer: iMac (21.5-inch Mid 2011), Mac OS X (10.7.3)
It took me some time to upgrade to Mavericks, but I did it eventually.
After having some problems with Spotlight (which was infinite looping indexing... and I just had to turn if off from Terminal), I realized I was encountering another big problem to me since the installation of Mavericks.
In System Preferences:
- 'Desktop and Screen Saver > Screen Saver' : it is set to 1 minute;
- 'Energy Saver > Computer Sleep' : it is set to 10 minutes;
- 'Energy Saver > Display Sleep' : it is set to 5 minutes;
- 'Energy Saver > Put hard disks to sleep when possible' : it is checked.
- 'Energy Saver > Wake for network access' : it was checked. I unchecked it. Nothing changes.
- 'Energy Saver > Start up automatically after a power failure' : it is unchecked.
- 'Energy Saver > Allow power button to put computer to sleep' : this option is absent from my System Preferences > Energy Saver, but I would like it.
So, before Mavericks, everything was working great.
Now, after 1 minute, or after 5 minutes, or after 10 minutes: it's all the same. Nothing is sleepy. Nothing is energy saving.
I did not change anything in my computer since I've updated to Mavericks. However, I changed Wi-Fi. Since it was the only new change, I've "played" with 'Energy Saver > Wake for network access'. When I opened my System Preferences, it was checked. I unchecked it. It did not change anything. I'm not sure what it's used for.
I would appreciate any advice to make it work as it used to.
Thanks for your time reading and typing your answer,
Have a good day,
Regards,

- 'Energy Saver > Allow power button to put computer to sleep' : this option is absent from my System Preferences > Energy Saver, but I would like it.
Built into the Software now.
Do a backup.
Quit the application.
Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J. When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder. Select Preferences/com.apple.systempreferences.plist. Move the .plist to your desktop.
Restart, open the application and test. If it works okay, delete the plist from the desktop.
If the application is the same, return the .plist to where you got it from, overwriting the newer one.
Thanks to leonie for some information contained in this.
You might try Spotlight again. That is how the App Store knows what is installed.

Prompting user to save changes before leaving jsp

Folks,
I want to be able to prompt the user to save changes on the page that he's on, before he navigates to a different one. one idea i explored is using the body onUnload event. the problem is that my page is split into multiple jsps with tiles, and the body tag is in a common tile that i can't really access.
Any other ideas on how to do this?
Thanks,
Nilesh

well, onbeforeunload seems to be an IE specific event. we have some customers using firefox etc.It works in at least IE 5.0, FF 1.5 and Safari 1.3. Only not in Opera yet, because it very strictly follows the w3 standards. It doesn't support the onunload either though, which was also invented by Microsoft and adopted by FF and Safari, only a bit earlier than the onbeforeunload.
And as I already said, the onunload is already too late. The browser will (already) be closed regardless of the (outcome of the) warning message.

How do I save changes to "Energy Saver" that stay in effect after rebooting.
