Screen Saver On When Logged out
Hi, all,
We have 4 iMacs at work that are bound to the domain via AD. I've configured them such that when a student is logged on, if 15 minutes of idle time has passed, the Shell screen saver will turn on. All four are doing this correctly.
However, one of the iMacs turns on the Shell screensaver when a user is logged out of the computer. The other 3 are not turning on the Shell screen saver when a student is logged out -- which is what I want.
I have configured the iMacs and have customized the default profile, English.lproj file, and backed up the original. I use the customized profile for students.
Suggestions on why this is happening? Thnx in advance.
From my experience, I don't believe that you can activate the screen saver from the login window. If you don't have external devices that prevent it, the Mac eventually goes to sleep. There seem to be few work around options.
In the Accounts System Preferences, under Login Options, you can choose to have the Restart, Shutdown and Sleep buttons available in the login window. Then instruct everyone to Sleep the Mac when they log out.
If you prefer the Screen Saver, the other option is to go to the Security System Preferences and use Require password to wake this computer from sleep or screensaver. Then in the Desktop and Screen Saver Preferences under Screen Saver set up a hotcorner(s) which imediately activates the Screen Saver when the mouse is rolled to that corner(s). Then leave the Mac signed into an account and have folks always activate the Screen Saver when the Mac is idle. You can reinforce that by setting the Screen Saver to self activate after a very short period. But having to enter a password gets old to some folks if the Screen Saver activates too quickly, too often. You don't mention your setting, whether these are family accounts or a work environment. Security has its importance in both settings!
I don't have multiple accounts on my Mac, so I can't test whether those work arounds need to be set in each individual account or just the Admin Account.

Blue Screen of Death when logging out
Until recently I had only a Macbook Pro, and connected to the internet using my Airport Extreme. Then I added a Mac Pro with Leopard server - to add wikis blogs and other nice features into my home network.
However, intermittently, when I log out of an account to go back to the Login Window (if I want to leave the administrator account) or even just out of a user account, the login screen does not appear - and I get a blue screen of death with a spinning 'wait for' icon (no cursor is visible).
Has anyone had similar experiences? Anything I need to do to prevent this from happening. This actually happens both on my Macbook and Mac Pro now that the server is in the picture.
It is worrying me as the only way to get out of it is to hard-reboot the system. Not the best way to keep my data intact.Thought this might help. This also crashed with me running 10.5.2

I've chosen "never" on my screen saver however the screen saver still comes on and there is no way for me to change it, how do i change it? I don't wish to have a screen saver on when I'm watching TV or movies on my laptop.
Step one is to log into a newly created admin user account and see if the problem persists. Also,
-
I use Time Machine with an external hard disc which has worked perfectly for some years. Recently Time Machine has aborted backups if the screen saver starts when back-up is in progress. I use a Maxtor OneTouch4 back-up system. Any ideas?
Has Apple recently up-dated my OS (Lion) such that every time the screen saver starts it disables Time Machine. I have to switch-off the computer and re-start in order to undertake a back-up. I have now switched of all screen savers.Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of this exercise is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Be sure your Mac is shut down.
Press the power button.
Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
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(s)?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode.) -
When "Log out after X minutes of inactivity" is on, and those X minutes pass by, my MBA logs out. After that, when I want to use it again, I found that display is totally black and if I use the touchpad, then I can start seeing "what is behind" that black screen (Login Window), like you can see on the picture:
I took it to Tech Service and they didnt find out any hardware issue. Any ideas?I recently found out that this only happens when DISPLAY is set to go to sleep minutes before the "Log out after X minutes of inactivity". I had "Display sleep" option set to 5 minutes and "Log out after 10 minutes of inactivity" and this causes the display to go to sleep first (screen goes black) and then, 5 minutes later, it logs out.
If "Display sleep" is off and "Log out after X minutes of inactivity" is on, the issue does not replicate. So Im thinking it has something to do with the screen being black at the moment it logs out. Can you try and replicate that?
I will be checking the thread you suggested and hopefully oudgrad1764 can find a solution. Thanks a lot. -
Help with occasional system locks when logging out or rebooting
Basically what's happening is occasionally when logging out, restarting, or rebooting from an X session, I get a total system freeze. The screen goes blank and there's no input possible. I'm not seeing anything in the logs. The card is using the xf86-video-intel driver and used to work fine with the i810 driver.
There are some similar threads around like this one:
http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=65469
but it's still somewhat different. For me it only happens occasionally and I lose complete control of the system. This was happening when starting from GDM, and is now happening from starting either with 'exec startlxde' or 'exec ck-launch-session startlxde' (current). GDM is gone now (Hurray! Whoopy! Yahoo!)
One of the solutions listed in the above thread was to remove the vga= line from the kernel command in menu.lst. I don't have that. Another solution was to add it. I didn't try it yet. If this were the problem, wouldn't the behavior be consistent?
It's worth mentioning for a bunch of attempts yesterday I couldn't log in with startx, and I was getting a number of different errors in Xorg.0.log. Today it's working. I have no idea why; It's the same xorg.conf and same software as before.
I'm out of ideas. Got any?I really could use some ideas with this. The machine in question isn't in my possession very often and it needs to 'just work'. I've since removed everything from lxde except for the panel and am now using a straight openbox session.
The machine only blanks when shutting down, logging out, or restarting. I do have control over the power button, so it will power off. Unfortunately this just kills it, so the file system is uncleanly mounted. Eventually this is going to kill data (if it hasn't already).
I want to reiterate that there is nothing in the logs that everyone isn't seeing with the intel drivers. I've been through countless bug trackers, as well as threads here and elsewhere. Does anyone have any idea what I can do to get this machine to close gracefully? If I can't get X/intel to play nicely, is there something I can do to get the power button to close the system properly? -

G5 locks up when logging out and other concern
This has become a problem over the past year. I know that it is an old single processor, first of the Power Macs, legacy machine and OS. I have gone through all various check system/disk evolutions with Apple and TechTool Utilities.
Also, when I have a software glitch, I can never get the Send To Apple report to "send". I get a message that reads something along the line of 'not being able to connect to Apple'. Why, the legacy problem again? If so, I am suprized that I get iTunes and Safari updates.I don't think it has anything to do with it being a "legacy" Mac. I have a Power Mac G5, running Leopard, and it runs quite well.
Locking up when logging out is usually caused by a process that is running and the OS is not able to quit it. It may be related to an app, or it may be a background process. If you restart (or log out and log in) and then immediately log out, does it lock up?
As a test, you can try creating a new user account in System Preferences Accounts pane. Log out of your usual account and log in to the new account. Do some things you normally do, then try logging out. Does it lock up? -
Why does apple tv play my photos randomly in screen saver mode when random is not selected
why does apple tv2 play my photos randomly in screen saver mode when random is not selected?
Thanks for that.
Random is not selected in transition or anywhere else. Unless I am missing something in the settings.
So why is it playing my photos ramdomly in screen saver mode ? -
the monitor shows the windows 8 screen with the apps, then the screen saver will come on. Then when I try to bring it out of the screen saver mode the screen goes black and nothing I do will get it to go back to the windows 8 screen. Then the mouse pointer will disappear. So I end up having to shut down the computer using the power button. If I have the screen set up for the old style windows 7 and it goes into the screen saver and I bring it back there's no problem.
fleamarketladyHello fleamarketlady,
Your computer goes black when it comes out of sleep mode some times.
Make sure that you are only using one cable to connect the monitor to the computer.
Open up command prompt and run the following command SFC /scannow.
This will scan the system files and correct any errors that it can.
Here is a link to command prompt.
When you go to open command prompt, right click and run as administrator.
If you are still having the problem you can perform a system refresh.
This will uninstall windows 8 and reinstall it without affecting your personal information.
Here is a link that will walk you through the steps for a refresh.
Let me know how everything goes.
Have a good day. -
When logging out of user account iMac will not start back up at login screen.
To prevent guests from using my iMac I frequently "log out" and created a guest account. However when I log out and shut down, my iMac turns on
right back to my desktop not even returning to the "log-in" screen. I tried fixing this under preferences but this did not yield any help as it's still doing
this? I don't understand I can't recall ever having this problem before. Please help! ThanksTry rebooting into Safe Mode, this will clear some caches. It is possible one (or more) is corrupt. To reboot in Safe Model when you hear the startup tone hold down the Shift Key until you see a progress bar appearing.

Blue Screen with Turning Wheel appears when logging out
This started happening when I partitioned my HD to run Windows, but continued after I reset Boot Camp. When I log out, rather then going to the log in screen(shared computer), the screen turns blue and a small gear wheel starts turning in the bottom portion of the screen. After about 10 minutes, it stops turning and appears to freeze. It takes almost half an hour to an hour to log back in once the blue screen disappears. Is there anyway to get rid of this?

I have the latest version of Firefox, I use Private browsing with Allow cookies but not third party cookies. Recently I have begun to be redirected to the MSN homepage after logging out of hotmail and whenever I add MSN cookies to the exceptions in cookies the list gets deleted. Can anyone tell me why, when blocking third party cookies should prevent that?
Two initial thoughts:
(1) If you look at the cookie names and content in the View Cookies dialog, are they the ordinary scramble of different names and values, or do they look like "opt-out" cookies? Some security software or add-ons may restore opt-out cookies after you clear them.
(2) If you have any extensions that make requests to those sites, it's possible they are bypassing private browsing mode, although I would hope not. Hmmm.
Unfortunately, unlike history where you can see the time that an entry was added, it is difficult to figure out when a cookie was set. But there are many cookie add-ons that might provide insight.
Alternately, you could go directly to the cookies.sqlite database using the SQLite Manager extension. This is on the nerdy side, but manageable.
(1) Install SQLite Manager from: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/sqlite-manager/
(2) The extension adds an item to the Tools menu. If you do not normally use the classic menu bar, tap the Alt key to display it temporarily or press Alt+t to pull down the Tools menu.
SQLite Manager may suggest a particular database, particularly on your second and later uses. You can skip that and it will open a new window.
(3) On the toolbar (first screen shot), choose the cookies.sqlite database and click Go. This should display the database entries for all your cookies (second screen shot).
(4) Select the following SQL query text:
SELECT host AS Site, datetime(creationTime/1000000,'unixepoch') AS Created, datetime(expiry,'unixepoch') AS Expires
FROM moz_cookies
ORDER BY creationTime, host
(5) Click the Execute SQL tab, paste the query, then click Run SQL. You should get a list of sites in order by the date their cookies were set (third screen shot).
Are the dates all fresh? If they are older, something may be rolling back your cookie clearing.
