  • Windows 8 Hot Corners and Edges not working.

    All my hot corners and edges have stopped working since the windows 8.1 update. Not really affecting the pc performance but it was a useful feature I miss. Don't suppose anyone can help?
    (checked the pc settings as well, and the features are enabled).

    step 1. HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\ImmersiveShell\EdgeUI
    step 2. Set both DisableTLCorner and DisableTRCorner to the data value of
    0
    step 3. exit and Restart computer
    Try this option and everything is ok :)

  • Hot corners for Expose not working

    I think I may have hit a combination of keys that disabled my expose corners... is that possible? It was working fine until I started pressing buttons trying to get a ™ to type. Now it's just not working. It looks fine in Sys Prefs

    Go to "edit" then "Special characters", finally "Miscellaneous" for ™ and other character types, short-cut is "optioncommandT" - default setting

  • Hot Corners: Start Screen Saver not working

    I have enabled two Hot Corners with the Start Screen Saver option, but when I mouse over to the corner, nothing happens. Console logs show nothing, so it is like it is not even being triggered. If I do a Screen Saver Preview inside System Preferences, it launches fine. If I launch it from the terminal, it also works fine ( sudo open -a /System/Library/Frameworks/ScreenSaver.framework/Versions/A/Resources/ScreenSav erEngine.app). My other Hot Corners Desktop and Notification Center work fine.  The only unique thing hardware wise is that I have an additional monitor attached to my iMac via Dual-Link DVI.
    Any ideas before I submit it as a bug?
    OSX 10.10.1
    iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, Late 2014)

    Disconnect all USB devices except keyboard and mouse, if applicable, and test.

  • Macbook Pro screensaver not working in Vosemite

    On a brand new Macbook Pro, updated to Yosemite the screensaver does not work properly.. it works ok from a hot corner but on timeout,  it goes to a black screen.
    I read about his issue somewhere else but no one offered a solution.

    See the System Preferences -> Energy Saver and System Preferences -> Desktop & Screen Saver.
    Default setting of Energy Saver for Computer Sleep is 15mins, and Screen Saver start after 20mins.

  • Displaying all application windows through Hot Corners is no longer working.

    I have my MacBook Pro and my iMac setup to display APPLICATION WINDOWS through the upper right HOT CORNER.   It is no longer working on my iMac.  Instead, the system only displays the top/recent used window.  The display separates and shows the most recent window floating, but, no longer does it arrange windows of each application on the desktop.  There are no other options, it's either set in HOT CORNERS or not.   What changed?   It still works on my MacBook.  Version update = 10.10.2 (14C1514)

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Please take this step regardless of the results of Step 1.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup 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.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

  • Dock, Expose, Hot Corners etc. don't work anymore! Solutions?

    Two days ago I decided to restart my Macbook. When the screen popped up it gave me the option of "Reopen windows when logging back in". I never noticed this before switching from Snow Leopard to Lion but maybe it's always been there. Anyways, as you know it is checked by default so I unchecked it just out of curiosity and restarted my system.
    When the system came back on, my desktop background had vanished, hot corners will not work, dock does not show up, and when I try to change any of these preferences they do not take. (i.e.-changing orientation of the dock from bottom to left, it simply won't let me select left) I can only open applications from spotlight, and when I mouse over an item now it turns the font white, which never happened before since I did not have it set like that. In addition, google chrome and safari both crash quite frequently since these mess-ups, and so I have resorted to doing all of my work from Firefox.
    I've read in these forums as well as other place on the web about this problem happening, but I have tried all of the remedies to no avail. In the past, the problem for users was a lot of the time caused by the use of a wireless mouse. However, I have never used a wireless mouse so this can't be the problem. I also went in to disk utilities and ran a repair, thinking maybe something might click but nothing did. I have restarted/shut down many times just to see if the problem has fixed itself, which it hasn't yet. I've gone into Activity Monitor and relaunched Finder several times, and also noticed that Report Crash is working super hard on the system for some reason. (Maybe because of many of my programs freezing and crashing?)  I also deleted many recent downloads, since I had one or two unfinished downloads and this had been the problem for one user inparticular...I did a "Secure Empty Trash" from the finder menu for these items. I also ran CleanMyMac and uninstalled a couple of applications that I don't use just for good measure...still NOTHING.
    I'm in no way an expert with computers, I just own a macbook and it's having problems. If you guys could lend your expertise as a last ditch effort that'd be great. I'd prefer not to take it to GeekSquad, Apple Store, or a repair shop because I'm a college student and I'm literally broke at the moment, so any remedies or ideas would take weight off of my chest.
    Thanks in advance-Jameson

    Also, this black bar shows up towards the bottom of the screen on the left side when it's on the apple loading screen. Not sure what it is...and yes I have also run system updates.

  • Screensaver not working in Mountain Lion 10.8.2??

    Hello,
    Since the update of Mountain Lion 10.8.2 on my iMac the screensaver is not working anymore. I set it to 10min and after 10min nothing happen. Whats that?? Sometimes (like 1 time a day or 2) it will work but most of the time, nothing.
    Anyone have an Idea of how to fix this??
    Thanks!

    Upgraded iMac to Mountain Lion a couple of weeks ago.  Screen saver was working well until Sunday or Monday. Did not know! It was working before.  The screen now has burn marcs! Ruined!  Screen saver still not working except forced with hot corner.  Furious!  Tried permissions, restart with OC p r.  Is there any way to fix this?  And the screen?  Took great care of this iMac and now because what seems like a bug from Apple, it's ruined.

  • Messages in Mavericks Server 3.0.1 Not Working

    I have set up Mavericks Server. Most things are working fine but messages, won't. When I sign into the server via the Messages app, it just says that the login is incorrect. I added the server account via System Preferences. I'm not sure what is wrong but a look in the logs shows me this:
    connection to router closed Throttling respawn: Will start in 10 seconds 
    I'm not sure what this means or if there is any way to fix this. I have port forwarded the ports for Jabber/XMPP that are on this site.

    Hello Elgringito,
    thank you for your replay.
    I rebooted from the Maveriks server disk (during the day we use the ML server since it works with mo problems).
    I started Server 3.0.1 app
    I entered Terminal and did the command you suggested: sudo serveradmin fullstatus vpn
    Here is the full Terminal answer:
    vpn:servicePortsAreRestricted = "NO"
    vpn:readWriteSettingsVersion = 1
    vpn:servers:com.apple.ppp.pptp:AuthenticationProtocol = "MSCHAP2"
    vpn:servers:com.apple.ppp.pptp:CurrentConnections = 0
    vpn:servers:com.apple.ppp.pptp:enabled = no
    vpn:servers:com.apple.ppp.pptp:MPPEKeySize = "MPPEKeySize128"
    vpn:servers:com.apple.ppp.pptp:Type = "PPP"
    vpn:servers:com.apple.ppp.pptp:SubType = "PPTP"
    vpn:servers:com.apple.ppp.pptp:AuthenticatorPlugins = "DSAuth"
    vpn:servers:com.apple.ppp.l2tp:AuthenticationProtocol = "MSCHAP2"
    vpn:servers:com.apple.ppp.l2tp:CurrentConnections = 0
    vpn:servers:com.apple.ppp.l2tp:enabled = yes
    vpn:servers:com.apple.ppp.l2tp:startedTime = "2013-11-14 20:16:38 +0000"
    vpn:servers:com.apple.ppp.l2tp:Type = "PPP"
    vpn:servers:com.apple.ppp.l2tp:SubType = "L2TP"
    vpn:servers:com.apple.ppp.l2tp:AuthenticatorPlugins = "DSAuth"
    vpn:servers:com.apple.ppp.l2tp:pid = 158
    vpn:servicePortsRestrictionInfo = _empty_array
    vpn:health = _empty_dictionary
    vpn:logPaths:vpnLog = "/var/log/ppp/vpnd.log"
    vpn:configured = yes
    vpn:state = "RUNNING"
    vpn:setStateVersion = 1
    Honestly I can't gest clues of what wrong, but maybe you do :-)
    Thanks again for your feedback !

  • Mosaic Screensaver not working

    Ever since I installed Snow Leopard, my Mosaic screensaver hasn't worked properly. The symptoms are:
    1) it locks on cycling between only two pictures, despite having a library of several thousand pictures to choose from. (different pictures on each invocation)
    2) it tends to show white rectangles instead of pictures, and the color choices are wrong, at least compared to how well it worked under Leopard.
    I have tried deleting the appropriate (as far as I can tell) plists, but that hasn't helped.
    So tonight, I tried playing with some settings in the screensaver control panel, and when I used the "test" button there, it worked perfectly. But it still fails if I let it come on automatically.
    Is there anything else I should be doing and/or correcting to make it work? I currently use our "last 12 months' iPhoto album as the data source, and it has about 4,000 pictures in it. Is this too many? if so, why?

    It sounds like we are having similar problems:
    Since upgrading my MBP to SL (and patched to 10.6.2) my mosaic screensaver is not working properly:
    1) I don't have the issue with only 2 pics cycling, however my pics are on the HDD so may not be having the issue mentioned re: wifi connection to external drive
    2) It chooses very dark pictures for white and light grey, and some of the colour choices are bizarre to say the least! Certainly no where near as good as Leopard
    3) Following the completion of the mosaic when it stops, it 'jerks' when restarting the image and the next mosaic. Its not a 'jerk exactly', it actually zooms into the image very slightly, before starting the 'shrink' into the next mosaic.
    Anyone got any solutions?

  • Mavericks hot corners expose

    Is there a way even with a third party app to bring back hot corners in mavericks?
    why apple remove such a useful function i do not understand...

    Hot Corners can be found in System Preferences > Dasktop & Screensavers > Screensavers > bottom right. I have Mission Control set for top left which gives me Exposé.

  • Process chain - After error ABAP - trigger a metachain start does not work.

    Hi,
    I have a process chain, where after an ABAP runs into red (ERROR MESSAGE triggered), another process type, like start a new meta-chain, or start an infopackage starts.... But is does not work. After i go to logs, it asks me whether i want to trigger the following jobs, if i choose yes, it works. But i need to start it automatically, when the ABAP Routine has an error message (RED) in the chain.
    Any idea, because I tried to solve it all the day, but i did not manage to get itwork...
    Many Thanks,
    L.

    Hi,
    the problem is not the ABAP Program.
    I have the following situation:
    A Metachain contains as second step a call of local chain. After the local chain, according to the status of it (green o red), we have other different steps. So we have two different link (red and green) starting from the local process chain step.
    Inside the local process chain there is the ABAP program that check several parameters and if something is not as expected fails with status red. if this situation happens, the local process chain becomes red and in SM37 inside the job i see the error that i forced, but the status is not triggered to the first metachain , so the corresponding following steps are not triggered.
    This issue happens only if fails the ABAP program because, for example, a Infopackages loading fails every thing works and the corresponding steps in the metachain are executed.
    In the ABAP program in order to force the status red we have the following code:
    MESSAGE e162(00) WITH 'Status' 'Red'.
    Any idea?
    Thanks,
    Veronica

  • Start menu not working

    Probably you need to install updates, particularly KB3036140.
    Since you cannot use Start menu to go to Windows Update, follow this method given by Insider Hub.......
    Checking for updates may fix this problem. To check for updates without the Start menu, do the following:
    Select the Internet Explorer icon.
    Type http://update.microsoft.com into the address bar and select
    Enter.
    If you are prompted to run a control, click
    Yes.
    This should bring up the Check for updates window. Install updates.
    If no update is available, or the available updates don’t fix the issue, restart the device–this should make the Start menu appear. To reboot without using the Start menu:
    Hold down the Windows key and select L to lock the device. Swipe up or select
    Enter to open the sign in screen. Select the
    Power icon on the log in screen to restart the computer.            
    OR
    Hold down the Windows key and select R to bring up a command prompt. In the prompt, type
    shutdown –r to restart.
