I have been trying to make the screen saver on my iMac 27" to work with no results. I change the settings and don't work neither. Please I need help

Since I bought this 27" IMac desktop I've been changing the settings for the screen saver and has been impossible to make it work. My screen goes black and no screen saver. I have try everything, If anyone can help me with this issue I really appreciate. thanks

first of all the only purpose for screensaver since we moved to LCD panels is if you think it look pretty
the old tube crt screens would get the image they displayed for a very long time burned into the phosphor
that being said then make sure your Energy Saver is not set to turn off the screen before or the same time as the screensaver is suppose to kick in

    I cannot remove the dialog box from my ipad. it says 'not enough storage'. I click on settings and close but still there. How can i remove this message? Thnx

    Try this.
    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.

  • I am trying to make a DVD of some of my photos in iPhoto 11.   The photos are in iPhoto, but in one of my external hard drives.   I have been able to make DVD's just recently, but not now.  What can I do?  At the end I get a notice of "failure

    HELP, HELP, I am having difficulty making a DVD-R  of some photos I have in one of my folders in iPhoto 11.   I use iPhoto on my external HD.   I have never had problems before today making copies of my photos using DVD-R disk.   I am doing the same thing that worked before.   Some of my photos are going to be put in a gallery for showing and I need to make a DVD so they can choose which ones to display and enlarge the photos.   It was due TODAY!  Yikes!  At the end of each try I get a window saying "BURN FAILED - The burn to the OPTIARC DVD RW AD-5670S drive failed.  The disk drive didn't respond properly and can't recover or retry."    help...........

    How are you getting the photo onto the disk to burn?  Have you tried exporting then to a folder on the Desktop and then burning that folder to disk using the Finder.  That will give you a data disk with just the jpeg image files in the folder. 
    If that's what you're doing and getting the burn failed then it's a system or optical drive issue. 
    If you're using the Share  ➙ Burn menu in iPhoto that will create a disk with a mini iPhoto library on it that can only be used by another Mac running iPhoto.
    Can you elaborate on your workflow.

  • TS1389 I have been trying to authorize my new computer for my itunes account for several days. When I type the correct log in and user name I receive the error message "The itunes store is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later."

    I want to access my songs, but Itunes won't let me. I continue to receive the same message.

    Here is how I solved it on my Macs as well as Windows.
    Here is for the Mac:
    - Quit iTunes
    - Go to Safari and open Safari preferences (in the Safari/Preferences menu)
    - Navigate to the privacy tab.
    - Choose to "Always" block cookies (you can change that back once the issue is solved)
    - Click "Details" below "Remove All Website Data"
    - Type apple.com in the search field
    - Select apple.com and click the remove button
    - Check that the apple.com line does not re-appear (it shouldn't, but if it ever does, quit and relaunch Safari and start over)
    - Quit Safari
    - Launch iTunes
    - Connect to your iTunes account
    - Smile :-)
    Here is for Windows 7 (must be similar for other Windows versions):
    - Quit iTunes (and Safari if you have it)
    - Openan Explorer window ("My Computer" for example)
    - Well hidden in the upper bar under "Organize" choose "Folder and search options"
    - In the "view" tab, make sure that "Show hidden files, folders and drives" is checked and click OK
    - Navigate to C:\Users\YourUserName\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes\Cookies  or YourUserName\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes\Cookies if that is easier
    - Delete everything in that folder
    - (I am not sure this is necessary) you might want to also trash items in the YourUserName\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\Cookies folder
    - Launch iTunes
    - Connect to your iTunes account
    - Smile :-)
    Please tell me if that works for Mac and PC (I tried other things before those instructions so an extra step might have been involved)

  • How much does it cost to change the screen of a cracked iphone 5 or how much it cost to change the phone

    If your iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad is Broken
    Apple does not fix iDevices. Instead, they exchange yours for a refurbished or new replacement depending upon the age of your device and refurbished inventories. On rare occasions when there are no longer refurbished units for your older model, they may replace it with the next newer model.
    ATTN: Beginning July 2013 Apple Stores are now equipped to do screen repairs/replacements in-house on iPhone 5s. In some cases while you wait. According to Apple this is the beginning of equipping Apple Stores with the resources needed to do most repairs for iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touches that would not require major replacements. Later in the year the services may be extended as Apple Stores become equipped and staffed with the proper repair expertise. So, if you need a screen repaired or a broken screen replaced or have your stuck Home button fixed, call your local Apple Store to see if they are now doing these in-house.
    You may take your device to an Apple retailer for help or you may call Customer Service and arrange to send your device to Apple:
    Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775 or visit online Help for more information.
    To contact product and tech support: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers.
    iPod Service Support and Costs
    iPhone Service Support and Costs
    iPad Service Support and Costs
    There are third-party firms that do repairs on iDevices, and there are places where you can order parts to DIY if you feel up to the task:
    1. iResq or Google for others.
    2. Buy and replace screen yourself: iFixit

  • My macbook PRO early-2011 was dropped and the cover of the screen now has a bump, is there a way to repair or change the cover? if so, what would the cost be?

    Also the cover under the notebook is screwed up, anyways the unibody is fine but both covers are pretty much damaged, anyway tho change those?

    Let's start by highlighting the fact that this repair will not be covered by any form of Apple warranty. That being said, you can check in places like www.powerbookmedic.com or www.ifixit.com for parts prices as a reference. You will have to change the entire lid, with all its guts, but the replacemente procedure is of medium to easy level of difficulty; basically you're disconnecting the cables and unscrewing the lid off.
    Note that you can opt for new or used replacement parts.

    Hey try this.
    Swipe to delete. When you are in either portrait or landscape view swipe from left to right over the message in the inbox listing. That should show a delete option without loading the email. Worked for me.

    You can also do this go into your settings>mail, contacts, calendars then turn off the "load remote images" then try to delete the message. 

  • I am being told I am 'over quota' and this software will not open my trash. I have been trying to copy things off my inboxes to trash and then to the archives.

    I cannot open my trash, it says it is now 'over quota'. I cannot even received emails if they are sent there!
    I have been trying to make my settings higher in the 'advanced' menu to no avail.
    I have been trying to move emails out of my INBOX to the trash and then to Archive subfolders but evidently EVERYTHING falls under this 'quota'. What the hell can I do? This is ridiculous, obscure and a terrible and extremely user-unfriendly software.

    What is the exact error message?
    Where is the message from, your email provider, or Thunderbird?
    What is your account type, POP or IMAP?

    Re: My Ipad 2 is stuck in recovery mode after the update 6.1
    31-Jan-2013 00:54 (in response to emrederki)
    before storming into the Apple store i'm trying a couple of manual firmware restores..
    I should have an answer shortly but the idea is this:
    goto http://osxdaily.com/2010/11/02/download-ipad-firmware-ipsw/
    and download the firmware for your ipad model. if (like the rest of us) you do not know which ipad 2 you have, then download the first IOS 6.1 ipad2 file following these steps and if you receive a message saying "not for this model, or not compatible" then try the next file.
    small warning, this is a total factory restore so the downloads are around 700mb each.
    1. open itunes, ipad disconnected.
    2. connect ipad
    3. warning restore message appears
    4. (windows users) HOLD SHIFT and click the restore button. This should open a dialogue box allowing you to navigate to the file you downloaded. Select the file and hit ok.
    5. this should start the manual restore, if it fails, download the next file and repeat.
    good luck all.
