How to block the desktop picture /background from changing?

Since I have the Magic Mouse, some time my background changes the desktop photo
It happens when I move a photo in iPhoto or even when I move it on the desktop: I guess it happens
with the combination of the mouse and my movements with the fingers on the mouse itself
Never happened before. Every system preferences has a lock but the desktop.
Any good idea would be much appreciated : )

as you say there is no lock in that preference pane. you can do the following. set the desktop background as you want. in finder go to home directory/library/preferences. select the file com.apple.desktop.plist and enter command+i. in the resulting popup check the box "locked". this file contains preferences for desktop background and locking it will prevent any changes to the desktop background until you unlock it.

  • How to block the business content background activation

    Hello!
    I need to block the BC activation in background (we want to prevent the problems with overwrite the active versions of objects).
    Does anyone know how to do it?
    Any authorization? There is the "S_RS_ADMWB" authorization with activity "CONT_ACT" (Activation of BI Content) but I tested and does not allow to divide between online and background.
    Many Thanks!

    how to stop the new health application from Count the steps/ woking background?
    I really need your help

    I agree with Mr. Hall that using mx.controls.Alert in Flex may be a better route.
    Show the Alert like this:
    // show an alert with a question and yes and no choices
    Alert.show( "Would you like to go to the Adobe Forums?", "Question",
         Alert.YES | Alert.NO, this, closeHandler, null, Alert.YES );
    Then handle the response in the closeHandler() function:
    protected function closeHandler( closeEvent:CloseEvent ):void
    if( event.detail == Alert.YES )
         navigateToURL( new URLRequest('http://forums.adobe.com'), '_self' );
    else if( event.detail == Alert.NO )
         // they chose no
    The following documentation on Alerts may be helpful:

    Let me know if that helps...

  • When I click on Safari Icon it opens,but under the desktop picture.How can I get it on top of it?

    When I click on Safari Icon it opens,but under the Desktop picture.How can I get it on top,so I could see it?

    I would open a guest account and see if the problem persist in this new enviroment.
    Boot into Safe Boot Mode and see if the problem is present,  this turns off third party plug-in's and extentions.
    This will give us something to go on and recommend the next step.

  • How do i transfer my pictures/music from the ipad to my icloud account

    How do I transfer my pictures/music from my Ipad to my Icloud account to free up some space?

    iCloud isn't designed to free up space on your iPad.  It's designed to sync your data to other devices you have connected to your iCloud account, and to store your backups.  It will only store your pictures as part of your overall iPad backup, but they cannot then be accessed except by restoring the entire backup back to your iPad.  iCloud will only store your music if you subscribe to iTunes Match, which is separate from your iCloud account.
    If you need to free up space on your iPad, you can import your photos to your computer and delete them off your iPad as described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.  You can also remove some or all of your music by unchecking the songs you don't want on your iPad on the Music tab of your iTunes sync settings and syncing.

  • How to block the creation of a Sales Orders without a linked Purchase Order

    Hi. I'm trying to block the creation of a Sales Order that doesn't have a linked Purchase Order. The first thing I did is using the SBO Transaction Notification as follows:
    IF  @transaction_type = 'A' AND @object_type='17'
    BEGIN
         IF (SELECT PoPrss FROM ORDR WHERE DocEntry = @list_of_cols_val_tab_del) = 'N'
         BEGIN
              SET @error = 1
              SET @error_message = 'Purchase Order Missing...'
         END
    END
    This works good. I create the Sales Order, I tick the purchase order field on the logistics tab, I click Add, and then the purchase order window appears...
    Then, the problem begins... If I click the Cancel button, the purchase order is obviously not created, but the Sales Order is created.
    Can someone tell me how to block the creation of the sales order If the user press the cancel button on the purchase order window (and the purchase order is not created)
    As far as I can see, after clicking the add button in the sales order document, the Sales Order is created on the DB. If there's no way of blocking the creation of the Sales Order, can I avoid closing the purchase order window by the SBO_TransactionNotification? (if the purchase order has not been created)
    Thanks...

    Hi Yail,
    I think you can't close the purchase order with the stored procedure.
    Try to catch the Event when the user click on Cancel button.
    So you can list the vents with event logger : https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/ede3be37-0e01-0010-1883-cd1b5293473e
    You can block the cancel button and force the user to create the purchase order.
    Hope i help you
    Best regards

    Hello,
    I am very new to Labview. Í have an image of an LED and wanted to find the luminance value. I got the luminance image from the IMAQ ExtractSingleColorPlane but the value is not displaying. I just wanted to know how to get the value of luminance from the IMAQ ExtractSingleColorPlane. I have attached what i have done below.
    Thanks in advance.
    Before learning about LabVIEW, learn about images.  An Image (in LabVIEW) is a "representation of an image", that is, the wire itself doesn't really have a "value", but "points to" a collection of data that can be "imaged" (i.e. looked at as through it were a picture), "manipulated" (for example, extracting a color plane, basically getting the "red channel", an image looking as through it were viewed through a red filter), and possibly returning arrays of numbers representing the intensity of the light at a certain position in the picture.

    2. lock all postings to cost center on Control data tab in KS02.

  • How do I remove a white background from a photo of a watercolour painting.

    How do I remove a white background from an image of a botanical watercolour painting?

    Is the logo in a pixel layer surrounded by white?
    You could make it a layer if it isn't already, then use the Layer Style dialog and set the Blend If parameter so that it will make light colors transparent...
    You can composite it into a web page with transparency by saving it as a PNG file, as JJMack has noted.

  • How to Block the material

    Hi friends,
    How to block the material ,
    what are the implecations if we block a material?
    Regards
    Krishna

    Hi,
    The best way is to keep the materail status with deleted or blocked for puchase / sales and need to maintain in the materail master.
    You cannot delete the material from material master until archiving but you can block that material for any procurement
    Goto Basic data 1
    X-plant matl status -
    01 Blocked for procment/whse
                                           02 Blocked for task list/BOM
                                           10 Blocked for MRP
    Select any one.
    Valid from  -
    Here you enter valid date from which the material should be blocked.
    So from this your material will be blocked for any PR/PO/any transactions related to Procurement

  • How to define the desktop folder?

    Hi,
    I entered the following lines into the Terminal application:
    sudo mv desktop desktop.bak
    ln -s /Users/username/Dropbox/./Desktop
    this command defined my Dropbox folder as the OS X desktop. plus, my Home folder now contains a folder called desktop.bak.
    how can I undo this?
    is it possible to define a folder inside the Home folder or inside the Dropbox folder as the OS X desktop?
    thanks in advance for your suggestions.
    best, Ian

    @Niel
    thanks a lot, the commands you suggested created a folder called Desktop.old inside my Home folder that now seems serve as the OS X Desktop. the dropbox folder no longer serves as the Desktop.
    I'd have some further questions:
    is it safe to delete the desktop.bak folder from the Home folder?
    is it safe to rename the Desktop.old folder to simply Desktop?
    is it possible to define a folder inside the dropbox folder as the OS X Desktop?
    again, thank you Niel for your very helpful answer.
