Screen grab no longer works?

This may be the most basic question, but I'm stumped!
I don't seem to be able to save a screen shot instantly since the update? (CMD + CTRL + SHIFT + 3)
This happens on both my MacBook Air and iMac.
Am I missing something?
Please help!

I also find Screen Grab does not work any more. It takes the picture but the pictuire is blank .
⌘⇧3 says 'your screen shot cannot be saved'
Why?

Screen saver no longer working after Lion upgrade.

Hi,
After standard upgrade about 2 weeks ago (mid July 2012) the screen saver no longer works. I mean I can certainly access the application and the desktop can be made to cycle through different photos etc. But when I configure the screen saver it just refuses to go into screen saver mode at all.
I'm not seeing too much occurance of this through the postings which is a bit worrisome as I'd thought this would be a much wider issue.
Cheers,
Herbie

Flashcards for screen brightness no longer work after BIOS upgrade

I have a Toshiba Satellite T135D/1320S laptop, and last night I upgraded the BIOS to v1.90 under the recently released recall notice. AFter installing the BIOS, however, the Flashcard brightness controls no longer work. Whenever I press FN-6 or FN-7, the screen brightness Flashcard pops up and the toggle on the slider bar moves back and forth, but the brightness of the screen does not change.
I have disabled and re-enabled the Flashcards as suggested in a separate forum, and I've also downloaded the most recent display driver (AMD display driver v8.615). Neither effort corrected the problem.
Anyone have any other suggestions?

Sometimes it helps to reset the machine. With the battery and AC adapter removed, close the Power switch for half-a-minute. Re-attach those, press the Power button to turn the computer on, and then immediately press the F2 key while the Toshiba logo is displayed. Press F9 to restore the BIOS default settings, press F10, and then select Yes (Exit Saving Changes). The computer will restart.
Another things to try is reinstalling the TVAP.

Screen Sharing no longer working

Hello, everyone. I have developed an issue with screen sharing on my MacBook Pro running OX 10.6.8, and I cannot seem to resolve it. Perhaps I am missing something. I realize this is a long post, but I am trying to be as complete as possible with my description of the problem and the steps I have taken to try to resolve it.
Screen sharing is of particular importance to me because I use it to control a Mac Mini that has my entire iTunes library. The Mac Mini is running OS 10.6.8.
Ordinarily, I would open Finder, click on the Mac Mini under "Devices," then "Share Screen" in the upper right corner of the Finder window. I enter my name and password in the login box, and I am controlling my Mac Mini within seconds.
Within the last few days, however, I have been unable to complete the connection. The first sign that something was wrong was when it took almost five minutes just for the login window to appear. Then, after I entered my login information, the "Connecting..." gear began spinning. It never gets any farther than that. I have even tried waiting as long as 45 minutes for the connection to complete before giving up, which requires restarting my computer, since force-quitting Screen Sharing doesn't work.
First, I tried re-booting my Mac Mini a few times, with no success. I also tried re-booting my MacBook Pro both in normal and safe mode, followed by repairing permissions and checking the volume structure (Disk Utility found no errors). I even tried running the full suite of Onyx scripts.
To isolate the issue, I took two other computers in my house, one running OS 10.7.4 and the other running OS 10.8, and they connected perfectly. All computers are on the same wireless network (although the Mac Mini connects to the same network through ethernet). Therefore, the issue has to be with my MacBook Pro.
Does anyone have any ideas as to how to resolve this issue? Thanks in advance for any assistance you can provide.

I too was running a Mac Mini with Server 10.6.8. Using it as a Netboot server was working just fine, but I wanted to look up the version of something on the mini. Connecting over screen sharing hung all day yesterday, so today I hooked up a keyboard, mouse, and display to look up the information from the mini. Turning off and restarting the shared services, restarting the mini, deleting keychains, attempting to get a screen share from a Finder connection... all hung at the "Connecting..." dialogue. I found this thread and signed out of MobileMe on the mini, and on the iMac I was using to connect. The connection went through at last, and now it's re-establishing without a hitch.

Accessing pictures saved on device when screen is no longer working

My screen is damaged and no longer works. How can I connect my blackberry to my computer to get access to the pictures stored on the device? Or any other suggestions on how to get them?

Are all of the pictures on a microSD? If so, do you have a card reader to read read the card directly? If so, remove the card and access it from computer. If not....
You need the mass storage mode enabled on the device. If you hadn't already done this, I'm not sure you can do it now without a display.
Also, if the device is password locked, you probably need to unlock it. My memory is you will need to unlock the BlackBerry and enter the password on the computer. Not sure now. But unlocking the device may not be a problem. If it is locked, you should be able to enter the password and then enter key.
So, with the above, see http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB29523

NOKIA Lumia 710: Touch screen focus no longer work...

Hello.
I've only had my Lumia 710 for two weeks. Up until 4 days ago, the touch screen focus attribute was working perfectly. I was taking pictures and it simply stopped working.
I've since tried resetting the camera options back to defaults with no luck. I recently updated the phones software pn 10.18.2012 with no change either. I also took out the battery and sim card out of frustration and obviously had no luck.
Aside from having to do a hard reset, does anyone have any suggestions regarding how to possibly fix this?
Maybe I'm missing an obvious and simple setting? Maybe not. Lol
Thank you. :-)

Hi Oddmoore,
Welcome to Nokia Support Discussions!
Normally Nokia Lumia 710 should focus on the part you tap with your finger (and show a reticle while doing so) and snap a picture. There is no setting to switch this off, so it should be working by default. We would advise you to reset your phone at Settings > About > Reset your phone. Just remember to backup your media files before doing so, because it will wipe your phone clean. If the issue persists, visit your local Nokia Care point and let them have a look.
Hope this helps!

System crash; data recovered; screen saver no longer works 10.3.9

My iMac crashed last Fri and finally today the dealer received the hard drive and recovered my data.
So far all is working EXCEPT my screensaver which used to work beautifully with OS X 10.3.5.
I DID update things including a OS X Update Combined" (10.3.9):
Installed "Apple Remote Desktop Client" (1.2.4)
Installed "iSync" (1.5)
Installed "iPhoto Update" (2.0.1)
Installed "Java 1.4.2 Update 2" (1.4.2 Update 2)
Installed "Security Update 2004-09-16" (1.0)
Installed "iCal" (1.5.5)
Installed "iPod Updater 2006-01-10" ((null))
Installed "iTunes" (6.0.4)
Installed "Mac OS X Update Combined" (10.3.9)
Installed "Security Update 2004-10-27" (1.0)
Installed "Security Update 2005-002" (2.0.0)
Installed "Security Update 2005-004" (1.0)
Installed "Java Update for Mac OS X v10.3.9" (1.0)
Installed "Java Security Update" (4.0)
Installed "Safari Update" (1.3.1)
Installed "iTunes Phone Driver" (1.1)
Installed "QuickTime" (7.0.4)
Installed "Safari Update" (1.3.2)
Installed "Security Update 2006-002 (PowerPC)" (1.0)
The problem is twofold:
1 - sys pref > desktop & screen saver > desktop
this option still allows me to select my picture folder, but no longer scrolls through the subfolders of pictures
2 - sys pref > desktop & screen saver > screen saver
while I CAN select my picture folder, i get a "looking for slides" message and finally after about maybe 20 seconds the first picture in the folders appears but when the screen saver is activated, I only get a black screen
Any advice is appreciated.
Thank you -
Pat

I just noticed that the Shell screensaver has the same issue of taxing my CPU to nearly 200%. Very frustrating!!!

Lock screen preview no longer working with 10.3.1

Hi
We have updated all devices running work space only to 10.3.1 and the device no longer shows message previews in the lock screen.
Is this a bug?
I have turned on all instant preview options on the device.
Thanks

when you mean "work space" you mean as in "BlackBerry Balance" ?

IChat - audio, video and screen sharing no longer work

I use ichat video and screen share to visit with family and assist with computer work. Every since .mac changed to .me, I am no longer able to do anything but text message...... I have changed ports, changed from .mac to .me logins. But still not luck. Nothing has changed with routers. Working with cable modems and DSL..... Looking for help.

Hi Bob,
The Screen Sharing through iChat and the Audio only and Video chats do not require the AIM servers other than to say your Buddy is On-line.
There is feedback from the AIM servers to say what capabilities your Buddies have.
You can see these if you look at their Info card (Click on a Buddy and use Apple key and i together)
Now if the Buddy does not show the capability then it may well be the AIM server.
But..... IF you have turned off (or it has become turned Off) either of the Camera Enabled or Microphone Enabled items in the Video menu (from menu bar) then you will not have the capability and will therefore not see other people.
One clue will be in the Buddies Menu about whether you can do One Way Video or Audio chats. If it says you can it is the AIM end.

Now my AOL screen name no longer works....

I just activated an iPhone and updated iTunes. I sign into the Store using an AOL screen name that I have used without too many prior problems since the first day the Store opened. However, to activate the iPhone, I had to use my Apple ID.
Since then, I've only been able to sign in using the Apple ID. The AOL screen name now supposedly is one that "has not yet been used" at the Store, but when I try to create an Apple ID under that name when prompted, I am told the name already is in use. I actually don't want to use an Apple ID to access the Store since I haved unredeemed credit there and my computer is authorized to play five years' worth of purchases under that AOL account name. The problem manifests identically both on my MacBook Pro and my Dell laptop running XP, in an existing iTunes installation on the Mac and in a brand spanking new one on the Dell.
Apple email support remains lame for this issue. In the past, when I have had AOL screen name access issues, I get the canned response reminding me to be sure I am clicking the radio button for AOL sign-on and to be sure that my password is correct and that, if I still can't access the Store doing that, I should create an Apple ID to access the Store. There is no canned response that explains what else I can do. Luckily, in the past, similar problems resolved themselves despite Apple support's lack of useful instruction. Either the server stopped hiccuping or I was able to workaround by signing in, first, under my Apple ID, signing out, and then signing in under my AOL name. However, it's been more than 24 hours this time since I had access, longer than I've been locked out before.
Anyone else having this or similar AOL log-in problems right now? Thanks for all suggestions.

Just want to add one more thing: When I try signing in using the correct combination of AOL screen name and password, I get the error message saying that my screen name "has not yet been used" at the Store. However, when I try using another password just for grins, I get a message saying that the screen name and password combination does not match the Store's records. If the Store can discern a name/password mismatch, doesn't it seem clear that the Store does recognize that there's an active account in place under the name/password combination? Weird.

Special Keys(Ctrl-opt-esc) in Screen Share no longer working after latest update

I typically remote into a machine back home through icloud once or twice a week to help my wife kill a program that can get stuck. I used to be able to send command+opt+esc to get to the remote computers force quit applications window. But now when I do that after the latest update, it only does it on my computer and no longer send the command to the remote screen share session.
Anyone else experience this or have a fix?
-Dan

(A) Try reset iPad

Note: Data will not be affected.
(B) Close all apps in the multi-task window
1.Double-click the Home button.
2. Swipe the app's preview up to close it.
3. Preview will fly off the screen.

Back to my mac screen sharing no longer works since Mountain Lion release, even on Lion

I've used screen sharing via iCloud and back to my mac between a 2007 macbook and a 2010 imac. Both computers are still on Lion but screen sharing stopped working when Mountain Lion was released. I've read a number of comments on this forum that people were having trouble since upgrading to Mountain Lion, but I don't think that's the problem b/c I haven't upgraded either machine. I think the problem is something Apple did in preparation for the Mountain Lion release date and it seems to have damaged screen sharing functionality. Anybody else experiencing this or have a fix for it.
As for the specifics, I can still see my "other" machine under shared and can click "share screen," it usually searches for a couple minutes, then pops up the password dialogue box, but then searches for a while and eventually the password box closes, "screen sharing" stays open, but there are no windows associated with it.

I have the same problem, just today (although I'm still running 10.6.8). Every morning I turn on my main Logic mac then fire up my 2 slave macs, connect to them, activate Screen Sharing, and get going.
This morning I tried it, connected to the other macs as usual (I can see/access/alter their hard drives from my main mac) but when I click "Share Screen" I just get the "connecting" dialog box & it just keeps going.
The weird thing is, when I put my laptop into the network via wifi, I can screenshare my main mac's screen (all 3 of them, actually!) but not my 2 slave macs that are ethernet'd to the main mac.
I've tried every solution I could find via google, and nothing is working.

Screen Sharing no longer works for me with Lion

I use screen sharing all the time, I have several Macs. Ever since I loaded Lion (on all systems) it opens screen sharing, asks for my username and password and loads the screen; I see the screen(s) for about a second then it prompts me again with my login to gain access. It repeats this over and over with my login.
Anybody know what can be done to correct this issue?

This is an issue I have encountered too. Mac to Mac on Lion its sporadic at best - even when you do get in, you will get a strange jerky beachball on the host computer whilst everything appears to be working fine.
Windows to Lion its seriously borked, and you can't even click on an account to log in. Its something to do with ZRLE encoding of the session, and the fact its the first multi session VNC attempt. It rejects the connection unless its 101% happy with it.
Mountain Lion makes this a bit easier...I think they glossed over this in Lion and released a new one instead.
So whilst its not a solution, more of a workaround - your best bet is to upgrade to ML. By all means try making a freshh account on the host computer that matches the client compuer, and see if that authenticates properly. It should do.
Cheaper option: turn screen sharing off, use Vine as your VNC server instead (http://www.testplant.com/products/vine/). You can even do multi session if you want to tinker with some settings and read the forums.
Please mark as solved if this helped you. Thanks!

Screen sharing no longer works.

I cannot use screen sharing between my laptop and mini, although I used to be able to do so, after I "updated" to Lion. However, I can use file sharing, showing that wireless (airport) connection is working. This seems to be an Apple network problem. I tried the solutions posted (signing out of MobileMe, restarting my laptop), but Screen Sharing comes up, the "Connecting" window shows and then goes away, while the network/(my laptop name) window stays on. Laptop also shows up in the sidebar. Trying for Screen Sharing help gets me a message: "Topic currently unavailable." Is there a solution that does not involve connecting the two computers with an Ethernet cable?

Is Firewall turned off on both machines?
