Mission control problem

I have a Cinema monitor connected to a MacBookPro (early 2011) with Mountain Lion; when I lauch the Mission Control I have this behavior
A "copy" of the background appears covering the other screens icons. Any idea of the problem ?
Thank you,
Paolo

I had this as well.  Fixed it by removing ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.desktop.plist then restarting my computer.  Now I have default background images but I can use mission control.

  • Mission Control Problem: Unable to Assign Mail Application

    I have used Mountain LIon since release with no problem. Today I restarded my computer after it died of battery and now I am unable to assign my mail application to a desktop as I had previously been able todo. I am able to full screen the application which then keeps it in one pane but I do not like to use it that way as I like to have multiple emails open at once. Once I drag the application in mission control to a new desktop it does not get the dark hilight and pops back into palce. The mail application appears on every desktop that is not an application in full screen mode. See pictures, please help!
    This is me trying to move the mail app into a desktop.
    This is the same attempt with system prefrences.

    Just found this post that addressed my issue, thanks.

  • Problem to get Mission Control 3.0.1 running with JBoss 4.2.2GA

    Hello,
    I'm using JRockit R27.04 to run JBoss 4.2.2GA with the following VM parameters:
    -Xmanagement:ssl=false,authenticate=false,port=7091,autodiscovery=true -Djavax.management.builder.initial=org.jboss.system.server.jmx.MBeanServerBuilderImpl -Djboss.platform.mbeanserver
    It's working fine but when I try to use any feature of Mission Control (console, memleak, JRA, ...) pointing to JBoss, I get a ClassNotFoundException:
    Could not open Memory Leak Detector for (1.6) org.jboss.Main (4460).

    Can anyone help me?
    Thank's,

    It was a good attempt, but I'm still getting the same exceptions.
    I tried to create a new service file, and it was successful deployed:
    <?xml version="1.0"?>
    <server>
    <mbean code="bea.jrockit.management.JRockitConsole" name="bea.jrockit.management:type=JRockitConsole">
    </mbean>     
    </server>
    After it I opened JBoss JMX Console and I saw the following mbeans published:
    bea.jrockit.management
    type=Compilation
    type=DiagnosticCommand
    type=GarbageCollector
    type=JRA
    type=JRockitConsole
    type=Log
    type=MemLeak
    type=Memory
    type=PerfCounters
    type=Profiler
    type=Runtime
    So, it appears that all jkrockit MBeans are published, but the problem persist.
    Any other suggestion?
    Thanks,
    Anderson Souza

  • Problems with scrolling and Mission Control

    I have this problem:
    When scrolling down any page, the letters will blur at the top of the screen and not the bottom.
    When swiping acrross pages in the launchpad, it occasionaly freezes half way between the two.
    When I swipe up with four fingers to access mission control, the screen becomes very sluggish. Swiping back down (or clicking a tab) is even worse, causing slow "laggy" animations.

  • Problem in mission control : placement of the desktops isn't memorized

    Hi everyone!
    It's my first topic here, so please, be kind if I'm not respecting the rules...
    Here is my problem :
    Today, I'm doing some HTML coding in textwrangler, and testing the pages with safari on a second desktop. I'm opening the pages in safari with a finder window opened in a third desktop. I'm on my macbook pro and i'm switching desktops with the 4 fingers technique. I have placed the desktops in that order :
    1) Textwrangler
    2) Safari
    3) Finder
    When i'm using the 4 fingers and go into the finder to look after a page, trying it into safari, the order is changed :
    1)Textwrangler
    2) Finder
    3) Safari
    Is anyone encountering something like that with mission control? Do you know how to fix it? I hope you'll be interested in my problem.
    Thank you!
    Nelson

    Thanks a lot, I hadn't seen the options in preferencies... Let me go buying glasses!

  • Mission Control keyboard shortcut problems

    I have a problem with my keyboard shortcuts (changing space with Mission Control)
    Sometimes they do not work... then I have to reset PRAM (using this guide http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1379) and then it works again. Then after some time it fails again.
    Anyone having the same problem?

    Just another quick update, the link above is not possible CSGO and other steam games do not allow you to define custom shortcuts.  I found an article on the web indicating that scripting this is not possible either as the plist you modify requires killing the mission control process entirely to reload the settings, and then doesn't remember the modification you make to the plist anyway.  This is a real pain, maybe I have to learn to deal with AWSD controls in FPS games if I intend to use the mac :-/

  • Desktop background problems:  27" iMac/Mission Control

    I've just installed a 27" iMac running 10.8 with 16 GB RAM.  I use 4 desktops at a time with different backgrounds in each.  When changing between e.g. desktops 2 and 3, via CTRL-right-arrow, Mission Control annoyingly flashes the desktop 1 background before replacing it with the desktop 3 background.
    I have replicated the problem on the other 27" iMac's I have access to, and with a variety of desktop backgrounds (e.g. only the Apple provided ones)
    and with various amounts of RAM (8 GB to 16GB).  It is a consistent problem on all 27" iMac's running 10.8 as far as I can see.
    Mission Control handled multiple desktop backgrounds flawlessly under my previous set up (iMac 21"/10.7).
    Does anyone know how to fix this behavior?

  • Problem with mission control after 10.7.2 update

    After I updated to 10.7.2, when I swipe into mission control then select a different app with the spacebar then swipe back out of mission control, the menu bar on the top does not switch to the new app, it stays as the previous open app. But, if I click on the new app instead of using the spacebar then the menu bar switches correctly. Is anyone else having this problem?

    I have had the same issue since initial 10.7.0 install.  Doesn't seem to affect function at all.. but disconcerting nonetheless.  I have yet to find anything acknowleding the problem or how to fix it. 

  • Is anyone experiencing problems with opening mission control from the desktop.  Running mountain lion with parallels 7 and windows 7

    is anyone experiencing problems with opening mission control from the desktop.  Running mountain lion with parallels 7 and windows 7

    I had been having a similar problem on Lion with Safari pdf files despite downloading the latest Adobe Reader XI.
    I would constantly get the same messages - There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired. And I would get a blank page when I tried to print the pdf if I tried printing from the Safari web page using File - Print from the top toolbar on my laptop.
    Then I came across the grey Safari lozenge with action icons.
    This allowed me, without downloading the pdf, to print the pdf file direct from the Safari page by using the Print icon on the grey lozenge that appears centrally three quarters down the screen.
    Then I discovered that if I save the pdf using the Save icon from this same grey lozenge on the Safari page I can open and print this pdf version from my desktop.
    I've tested it with a couple of different pdf files and these methods work using the grey lozenge icons but the same pdfs files don't work using File - Save As on the Tool Bar.

    "Caused by: java.lang.RuntimeException: java.lang.IllegalAccessException: Your license does not allow JRA to be started: Error: license signature validation error."
    For the version of JRockit that you are running, you need to have a license file to run JRockit Mission Control.
    Information about how to find a license file can be found here
    In the normal case, you will get better and faster response to JRockit Mission Control questions if you ask them in the JRMC Forum
    Good luck,

  • Problem with Mission Control

    I've just installed the Safari 6.1.1 and iTunes 11.1 updates. For some reason this seems to have affected Mission control on my computer (late 2011 Macbook pro running Mountain Lion).
    I can now no longer highlight and select the large desktop window in Mission Control (the one that open apps appear above). This is really annoying as it makes navigating around much more of a hassle now.
    Does anyone have any ideas? I've tried repairing Disk permissions already. Thanks.

    I'm surprised that given the usual hysteria over anything new that Apple brings out Apple didn't realise that providing this upgrade solely via a downloading method may cause a few problems upon its release!!

  • Hi, my name is Amit, my hot corners stop working after some time. Have to go to mission control to reset them, however they stop again after some time. This is annoying. Can someone please assist to solve this problem? Thanks Amit.

    Hi my name is Amit, after upgrading to OS X Maverick I often have problem of my Hot corners stop working after a short period of time. I have to go to mission control and have to reset them for them to start working again. However this is temparory and they stop working again and this is quite annoying. Can someone suggest a cure to this problem please. I will be grateful. Thanks Amit.

  • Maverick causing problems with mission control

    hi,
    I have a early 2013 Mac book pro. I just upgraded to Maverick and I have been facing issues with mission control. When I swipe fingers up on touchpad to open Mission control, occasionally it lags. Basically the lagging is prevelant with swipe and pinch gestures on touchpad, the transitions are not smooth. Please help me fix it.
    Thanks in advance,
    Kritarth

    I'm not sure that what I'm seeing is this same problem, but it's similar. And worse.
    I have a MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch,Early 2013), and several times since I installed Mavericks both Mission Control and 4-finger swiping have stopped working completely. A restart always fixes them. They both fail at the same time--either both work completely, or both don't work at all.
    I'm guessing there's a lurking Mavericks bug, somewhere.
