How to get to reset nvram screen manually

Sorry, I couldnt find the G4 forum. How do I get to the white cursor screen to reset the nvram on a G4 powermac. I've done it before and have the inputs written down but dont know how to get to the screen. Any help???

Restart your Mac and immediately hold down the Command-Option-O-F key combo until you see a somewhat intimidating command-line display that ends with the Open Fimware prompt. Type the following line:reset-nvram
press the return key on your keyboard
set-defaults
press return
reset-all
press return
Your Mac will reboot.

    Restore the phone on the same computer it was last synced to and it will not require the unlock code.
    If you don't have access to that computer you will have to use Recovery mode, which will wipe all content. See: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

    How do I get a true "full screen" view in the new version of Iphoto without the edit tools showing?  Weirdly enough, the help manual promises such a "full" view, which was always available in my earlier version of Iphoto.
    Thanks, in advance.

  • My settings icon is no longer showing.  How do get back on my screen?

    My settings icon is no longer showing on my iPad screen.  I can found it when I search for it.  But I how do I get the icon on my screen? Thanks in advance foray help you provide.

    Have you checked all your homescreens and app folders for it, also how many screens of apps have you got on the iPad (there is a maximum of 11) ?
    You could try a reset and see if you can find it after the iPad has restarted : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
    Of you could try resetting your homescreens via Settings > General > Reset > Reset Home Screen Layout and see if you can then find it.

  • How to get back default Lock Screen Image of Windows 8.1

    I recently upgraded windows 8 to Windows 8.1, but it reset my custom lock screen image .  I tried for default lock screen of windows 8.1.I can't find any default lock screen
    images of windows 8.1 (Only custom images are available). How to get default lock screen images? Does any any one know? please help me..

    The last "solution" works only for pressing Ctrl+Alt+Delete and clicking
    Lock. If you sign out of Windows and sign back in, that ghastly Windows 8.1 lock screen picture will come back.
    You can delete the img100.png file from your WinSxS folder: right lick on this file, click Properties, click the Security tab, click Edit, click Add, type your Windows user name in the white rectangle under "Enter the object
    name to select", click Check Names, click OK, then click Advanced, click Change, take ownership of the file, give yourself Full control over this file, click Apply and then OK. You may see your name three times in the Security tab (as user, administrator,
    and yourself). Make sure that each instance has full Control
    If this does not work, you can disable the Lock Screen: press Windows+R, type
    gpedit.msc, click OK, in the Local Group Policy Editor window that opens click on Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Control Panel > Personalization, right click on the "Do not display the lock screen" option, click
    Edit, check Enabled, then click Apply and OK.
    This, however, is a workaround rather than a real solution, which, it seems, Microsoft does not have.
    I have exactly the same issue with the horrid stripey thing. Furthermore, in Settings, Lock Screen Preview is completely blank both on current and past images.
    I've tried all the tips I've found around the web with no success. I get the horrid stripey thing back.
    I found this freeware called Lock Screen Customizer. Seems to work so far but time will tell. (Note that the download includes both win8 and win8.1 versions.)

  • How do I turn on my ipad, I just got it and I don't know how to get to the home screen. Also, is itunes free on the ipad

    How do I turn on my ipad, I just got it and I don't know how to get to the homescreen. Everytime I turn it on there is a black screen, the white charger, and the blue itunes circle. Also, are itunes free.?

    You must activate the iPad within iTunes on your computer. Make sure you have the latest version of iTunes on your computer (read the minimum requirements for the iPad printed on the iPad box) and connect the iPad to your computer with the supplied cable to a 2.0 USB port - not a port on a hub- a port on your computer. iTunes should start and take you through the process.
    iTunes on the iPad is a store where you purchase media - it is not the music player. The iPod app is the music player. Both apps are pre installed on the iPad.

  • How to get past License Acceptance Screen? (PSE8) - Part 2

    Well, I thought I had solved this problem by re-installing PSE 8, since it worked again for a while.  However, now inexplicably it has started having the same problem again (i.e., refusing to get past the license agreement screen even though I click "accept") - see this thread for the first part of this problem/discussion:
    http://forums.adobe.com/message/4823143#4823143
    This time, after trying all the suggested solutions without success, I again tried to just go ahead and re-install PSE8 to solve the problem.  HOWEVER, this time I keep getting an error message during the attempted installation (actually, during the beginning part where it makes you uninstall PSE8 before it will install it again) that prevents the installation from completing.  The error is shown below:
    http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y96/Cladean/PSE8installerror_zps4fc701de.jpg
    So, I'm stuck and unable to use my copy of PSE8.
    Anybody know how I get past this mess and get it working again?

    OK - thanks for trying to help, but I'm outta here.  After telling me last night that the Adobe Chat service won't support or help me with my PSE 8 problem because it's too old, I D/L'ed and installed the trial version of PSE 11 last night.  It fired up OK last night, but today it said it had some updates to do, so I let it install them.  Now, PSE 11 fails to open.  I tried to chat with Adobe support, explained the problem and gave them a copy of the error message details.
    They then said that the Adobe Chat service will not support or help me solve the problem with their latest version of PSE, because it's the trial version and they only help with the very first launch, and they only support the full version.  I guess they expect me to buy the full version when I can't get the trial version to start and they won't help.  Gotta say, that won't be happening.
    Just for grins, the relevant portion of the chat log is set forth below.

    Chat Transcript
    Thank you for your patience.
    info: You are now chatting with 'Basavakumar '
    Basavakumar : Hello. Welcome to Adobe Technical Support.
    Basavakumar : I have received your query. Please allow me a moment to verify your account and to review the details of your request.
    Panthercules: Hello again - I think we chatted last night
    Basavakumar : As I understand that you are unable to work with Photoshop Elements 11.0, am I correct?
    Panthercules: That's correct now - since you couldn't help with my PSE8 problem last night, I decided to try the PSE 11 trial version again to see if I could get that working
    Basavakumar : Thank you for confirming.
    Basavakumar : I will be glad to check and help you with this issue.
    Panthercules: Thanks - here is the error details on the message I'm getting when it stopped working today (after working OK last night):
    Panthercules: Problem signature: Problem Event Name: APPCRASH Application Name: Photoshop Elements 11.0.exe Application Version: 11.0.0.0 Application Timestamp: 505e85c3 Fault Module Name: StackHash_0a9e Fault Module Version: 0.0.0.0 Fault Module Timestamp: 00000000 Exception Code: c0000005 Exception Offset: 00000000 OS Version: 6.1.7601.2.1.0.256.48 Locale ID: 1033 Additional Information 1: 0a9e Additional Information 2: 0a9e372d3b4ad19135b953a78882e789 Additional Information 3: 0a9e Additional Information 4: 0a9e372d3b4ad19135b953a78882e789 Read our privacy statement online: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=104288&clcid=0x0409 If the online privacy statement is not available, please read our privacy statement offline: C:\Windows\system32\en-US\erofflps.txt
    Basavakumar : May I know what is the exact error message you are getting when you try to launch Photoshop Elements 11.0 application?
    Panthercules: see above
    Panthercules: It starts with the popup saying "Adobe Photoshop Elements 11 has stopped working"
    Panthercules: and then gives the above info as "problem details"
    Basavakumar : Just to confirm before you were able to launch Photoshop Elements 11 application?
    Panthercules: Yes - it installed last night (without choking on the failed PSE8 uninstall as I thought it might), and it launched and imported the PSE8 catalog just fine. I launched it a couple of times last night, just to see if it was working. But when I tried to launch it today to do some scanning, it popped up a message about updates being available. It installed those, but now fails to launch
    Basavakumar : Thank you for confirming.
    Basavakumar : In this case you need to refer the Adobe forums.
    Basavakumar : Please click here Adobe Forums.
    Basavakumar : Please click on the above link to visit Adobe Forums
    Basavakumar :
    Basavakumar :
    Basavakumar : Is there anything else I can help you with?
    Panthercules: So, again you're saying that the Adobe Chat support doesn't support even the latest version of PSE 11 and you can't help me with this?
    Basavakumar : Yes chat support is available for Adobe Photoshop Elements 11 fullversion.
    Panthercules: So, somehow you expect me to buy the full version when the trial version stops working and you can't help me get it working?
    Basavakumar : For trial version support is available only for first launch.
    Basavakumar : So please visit the forums for further assistance.
    Basavakumar : Is there anything else I can help you with?
    Panthercules: No - no point - looks like I won't be needing any support from Adobe as I never plan to buy anything from an outfit with this lousy support - thanks anyway.
    Basavakumar : Thank you for contacting Adobe. Good Bye.
    =======================
    For those of you stuck with troublesome Adobe software, I'm glad you have a helpful Forum here, but I can't see it making any sense to buy any more software from a company that has such crummy official support, so unless my copy of PhotoShop goes belly-up sometime I guess I'm gone.
    Thanks for trying to help folks - too bad Adobe doesn't have the same attitude.

  • When booting up MacBook I get a reset password screen

    My Macbook pro would not wake from sleep. I shut it down and then tried to restart. I get a Reset password request I can not get out of this. If I reset the password and restart the Macbook it just eventually comes back to this screen.

    At this point not much. See OS X Mountain Lion- If you see a blue screen at startup.
    If the disk is so full the computer cannot boot, then all you can do is remove the drive and replace it or erase it and reinstall OS X.
    If you can restart the computer:
    Freeing Up Space on The Hard Drive
      1. See Lion/Mountain Lion's Storage Display.
      2. You can remove data from your Home folder except for the /Home/Library/ folder.
      3. Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on freeing up space on your hard drive.
      4. Also see Freeing space on your Mac OS X startup disk.
      5. See Where did my Disk Space go?.
      6. See The Storage Display.
    You must Empty the Trash in order to recover the space they occupied on the hard drive.
    You should consider replacing the drive with a larger one. Check out OWC for drives, tutorials, and toolkits.
    Try using OmniDiskSweeper 1.8 or GrandPerspective to search your drive for large files and where they are located.

  • How to get out of full screen mode in Firefox

    Have tried to get out of full screen mode by pressing F11 and f11 and esc but nothing works.  any suggestions?

    Shift-CMD-F toggles full screen off and on in Fx. Also, if you've put the Full Screen icon in the Firefox Toolbar, bring the mouse cursor up to the top of the screen. This will reveal the toolbar and you can click on the icon to return to normal.
    Get the icon from View>Toolbars>Customize. Drag it into the Toolbar somewhere.

  • How to get report output on screen as well as in spool?. Spool to be mailed

    Hi All,
    Can any guide the approach for:
    Foreground run:
    Get report output on screen as well as generate a spool. The content of spool needs to be mailed.
    Background run:
    we need to generate the spool and mail the spool contents.
    Am aware of usage of FMs 
    1. GET_JOB_RUNTIME_INFO
    2. RSTS_GET_ATTRIBUTES
    3. CONVERT_OTFSPOOLJOB_2_PDF
    4. SO_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1
    Regards
    Raj

    Hi All,
    I had solved the issue by having two separate blocks for processing based on mode of execution.
    Background:
        1.  Initiate spool
        2. Write the summary
        3. Close spool, build PDF and mail the same.
    Foreground:
       1.  Initiate spool
        2. Write the summary
        3. Close spool, build PDF and mail the same.
       Write summary again (for display on screen).

  • How to get more independent of screen resolution

    Read already a number of topics about this in this forum. But I still wonder
    how to set up ones Swing components for different screen resolutions. What
    I did up to now is checking for the current screenwidth and setting sizes for
    each resolution. Worked OK. But nowadays there are so many different
    screen sizes, this is getting too complex.
    I mean, one has to set the component's size, its location, the fonts used,
    possible Icons in the Toolbar, the size of the components internal panels,
    the insets, border sizes, and many other things. So, assuming ones window
    with all the components looks great in one resolution, the developer still has
    to check whether it all looks so great as well in any other thinkable screen
    resolution. Even in those which the developer isn't even able to create using
    his graphics card.
    So, my question is: Is there somewhere a clever tool inside Java which makes
    the total layout of components and their sizes inside the user's main window
    more independent of the screen resolution?
    For instance, it would be great to be able to define the component's size,
    location, and so on, using the actual size it should appear on any screen.

    You are right. For those using advanced high resolution
    monitors, this will be a disadvantage. However, I'm quite
    sure, the average user I'm aiming for, still uses rather
    standard type of monitors. Of, course, in the (near?)
    future, everybody may be using high resolution (same
    progress as with our tv-screens). So I may have to include
    these screen sizes as well later.
    Your presentation made me aware of the great need for
    everybody in the graphics business for a solution for this.
    Still think, this can be automated in a not too difficult way.
    I mean, if I can hard code this in such a way, that nobody
    is able to see the difference of the program running on a
    different resolution, it must be possible to include an
    option in whatever programming language, to create ones
    graphics components in a resolution independent way.
    At least, I think. May be a good starting point for my next
    project.
    Thanks anyway for your help an remark. I think you still
    deserve your dukes. Here they are.
