MacBook Pro screen saver keeps going back to default settings
I use the Vintage Prints screen saver and always change the folder of photos to the most recent folder of photos I have taken. (I am an avid photographer and take lots of pictures.) Periodically the screensaver reverts back to the default settings: National Geographic photos, not shuffling the slide order. This has happened multiple times. Why won't it keep my settings?
Well try upgrading the firmware of the router & keep on holding tightly the reset button in such a way that power light is blinking on the router & then do a complete network power cycle i.e., unplug the power cables from the modem & from the router & then plug in the power cable to the modem first once all the lights are solid green you could plug in the power cable to the router & check out it will definately work!!
Open the setup page of router using 192.168.1.1 then put in the password as admin...all you need to do is do the wireless settings such as Radio Band Frequency to Standard 20 MHZ frequency,channel to 11.
Also,the advanced wireless settings to Beacon Interval=50,Frag
thres=2306 & Rts thres=2307 & then uncheck a Block Anonymous Internet
Requests & it will definately work!!!

Since I upgraded to Yosemite my screen saver keeps reverting to the default pictures
Since I upgraded to Yosemite my screen saver keeps reverting to the default pictures.
Back up all data. Quit System Preferences if it's running.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it, then copy the text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
~/Library/Preferences/ByHost
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar. Paste into the box that opens (command-V), then press return. A folder should open. If it does, look for a file with a long name that begins "com.apple.screensaver". There may be several such files. Move them all to the Trash.
Log out or restart the computer. Test. If the problem is resolved, empty the Trash and recreate your settings in the Screen Saver tab. -

The screen saver keeps shifting back to generic picks that came from iMac
I have a set of pics that I use as screen saver. But every once in a while it changes the screen saver pics to the National Geographic pics that came with the iMac. Why is that happening and should I be concerned.? I switch it back, and afyter a while, it goes back.

InDesign always goes back to Default settings
I cannot seem to get my settings to stay. If I have to force quit for any reason, the default settings always come back its is so frustrating. I also always have to open the tabs bar even though I check the tabs in the menu, every time I reopen the document, the tabs bar is gone....is this the norm? I am using Tiger, 10.4.11 on a G5 Powermac.
Thanks!>The next time I am forced to force quit,
you must make your settings then quite not force quit. When you quit ID thats when the app writes the new settings as default when you force quit ID does not have the chance to save these settings. you must follow the prceedure in post 2.
If you can only force Quite ID there is something wrong with your computer.
first thing I would do is Archive and Install the OS. -
Why does my macbook pro LED backlight keep going from low to high on it's own?
So this has happened to me I think once or twice before.. I'll be using my macbook and all of a sudden it's LED backlight goes dim. Then I have to change it back so it's in the middle (not too dim, not too bright). Then a couple minutes/seconds later the LED backlight goes to it's brightest.. It's making me mad that it's doing this and I don't know why it's doing what it does. All of this is happening while I'm scrolling down a webpage, typing, or just physically doing something on the keyboards. So it's not because it's about to go to sleep. I always keep the LED backlighting in the middle so it doesn't waste too much battery. So why is it doing this? Help me please?
There is an ambient light sensor built in the the MBP. If it is annoying , open SYSTEM PREFERENCES>DISPLAYS>DISPLAY. Uncheck the box for 'Automatically adjust brightness as ambient light changes'.

Adobe Reader V11 not going back to default settings after print
Hi Guys, First time on this forum. Im having a problem with one of our clients Adobe Reader software, They have the latest version installed
When printing they select the options they want i.e "multiple" (Only happens when you change something in here)
Then even if they close down adobe (have made sure the task isnt running in task manager) start it and go to print another PDF it opens to this page automatically and you are required to set them back manually
Any help would be much appreciated
Thanks

Touchpad goes back to default settings on reboot
I am using Synaptics touch pad (v 19.0.12.95).Everything was smooth as long as i was running windows 8.1. However, after windows 10 upgrade, synaptic settings change to default values everytime on reboot. Everytime I need to unclear the "enable reverse scrolling direction" and the box returns as checked upon reboot..
I found the same issue. Appears to be an issue with Version 19 of the Synaptics driver which loads with Windows 10. Fixed the issue by installing Version 18 of the Synaptics driver that was applied to Win 8.1. The problem will re-appear because windows 10 will automatically re-load Version 19 via windows update. so to stop that happening you may have to disable driver updates in win 10. Maybe this has been reported to Microsft and Synaptics ??? and the issue will be corrected in a future driver release. Clearly it was all OK in win 8.1

I have a MacBook Pro running mac osx 10.8, Screen saver keeps reverting to national geographic photos.
Just found this solution on another website. I tried it and it works. No more polar bears and Savannahs!
Apparently if you put it in the folder called "Desktop Pictures" it will work.
So, copy whatever folder of pictures you would like to use as your screensaver and then go to:
Macintosh HD>Library > Desktop Pictures
Paste your folder into this folder called "Desktop Pictures".
You may have to enter the administrator code (the password you use to open your mac usually).
Then, go back to System Preferences, go to Desktop and Screensaver, click on the Screensaver tab on the top, go to the drop down menu beside "Source" (under the picture) and click on "Choose Folder". Navigate to the Macintosh HD>Library>Desktop Pictures and then click on the folder you just pasted in there. Click "Choose" and you're all set. -

the very top of my 13" macbook pro screen, above the browser or application frame, goes black sometimes and I'm unable to see the choices, any ideas?
Back up all data.
I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, they may not work as described.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
defaults delete -g NSFullScreenDarkMenu
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window by pressing the key combination command-V.
Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear. You can then quit Terminal. Log out and log back in. -
My 13" early 2011 macbook pro is having trouble connecting back to internet after going to sleep. before updating to EFI 2.7 it was perfect now after updating its gone bad.
Same issue here too. I will try reinstalling the firmware update. This has happend to me twice. The only way to correct the issue was to reboot.

My 13 in MacBook Pro screen randomly goes black. It was purchased in 2010. It's a 10.6.8. It started just recently. The only thing I can think of is is that my 7 year old son played an online game with the computer. I did check the "hot corners" settings and that is not the issue. When the screen goes black, I generally end of foce shutting it down with the power button.
