Screensaver that works while presentation playing?

i have a self standing touch-screen kisok presentation. i've noticed that when the keynote presentation is playing, the screensaver will not come on. in this case the screensaver has been loaded with images very relevant to the presentation and i'd like to use it as an 'attract loop' of sorts.
is there some setting that i can change or a third party application that will play overtop of the presentation during idle time?
thanks.

thanks. let me know what you fiind. due to your mention of the auto-restart feature, i picked up keynote 3 and have it installed. i had the same problem with the hot corner not working and figured there was some mechanism in place to prevent it.
i also tried lauching (remotely with ARD) screensaverengine.app while the presentation was running and was unsuccessful. an always open applescript seemed as if it might be a possibility, but with the screensaver not working, i can't figure any way to look for the idle status needed to make sure i didn't interrupt someone using the kiosk.
my searches have not turned up and third party screen savers that will work either.

  • Screen Savers That Work While Listening To Music

    HI, i'm having a hard time find a simple "screenblanker"(mabye text or a clock) screensaver saver that I can have on while listening to music. My problem is all the apple original screen savers, they all turn off when I ajust my music volume! And i dont want this to happen  Anyluck?

    I have a very cool suggestion for you:
    1: Download the free SoundStream screeensaver and install it, set it as your screensaver.
    http://pcheese.net/software/soundstream/
    2: Next open AppleScript Editor and paste this script in:
    tell application "System Events"
        if process "ScreenSaverEngine" exists then
            tell application "ScreenSaverEngine" to quit
        else
            do shell script "System/Library/Frameworks/ScreenSaver.framework/Versions/A/Resources/ScreenSav erEngine.app/Contents/MacOS/ScreenSaverEngine -background > /dev/null 2>&1 &"
        end if
    end tell
    4: Now Save the script "DeskScreen" as a Application to your Utilities Folder and drag a alias to the Dock.
    5: Hide the Dock (optional)
    6; Play iTunes and enable the "DeskScreen" and enjoy, uses your microphone and the sound to create effects.
    7: To stop the effect, just click the "DeskScreen" icon in the Dock again and it turns off. You have full use of the computer too.
    8: Works with most screensavers. Eats CPU/GPU, so you might want to cut it off when your using the machine for heavy duty programs.
    Enjoy

  • I have powerpoint for Mac on my imac.  I can't seem to get the active text box function to work like it did on my PC.  How can I insert an active textbox into a presentation that will allow me to type while presenting?

    I have powerpoint for Mac on my imac.  I can't seem to get the active text box function to work like it did on my PC.  How can I insert an active textbox into a presentation that will allow me to type while presenting?

    I've gotten a little further on this. The dynamic select is
    working fine. It's the "a href" code that isn't. I'm wondering if
    someone can look at this line and tell me if it's okay to build the
    query string this way. The storeid comes through fine but I'm still
    not getting the employeeid value to pass. Here's line that's not
    working:
    td><a href="registerStoreCust.php?storeid=<?php echo
    $row_storeRS['storeid']; echo "&employeeid="; echo
    $_GET['employeeLM']; ?>">Register
    Customer</a></td>

    new ipod nano stopped working while playing will not even turn tried to charge it still nothing HELP!!!

    Change the rice and dry for another couple of days. Then:
    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Soundtrack Pro, with Logic Studio. app will not work, while Garage Band is present on my iMac?

    Still new to Logic Pro. Got the Soundtrack Pro when i bought the Logic Studio. am i to understand that this app will not work, while Garage Band is present on my iMac?
    if this is true, i'd welcome any suggestions.  do i have to delete GarageBand on current machine which has Logic Pro?
    appreciate any help
    thanks,

    My MacPro w/ OSX 10.6.8 runs GarageBand, SoundtrackPro and Logic 9 (Express) without issues.
    Everything was installed fresh - ie no overwrite OS upgrades and no app version overwrite upgrades.
    Just so we are clear - an UPGRADE would be from OSX 5 to 6 or from Logic 8 to 9 and involves a purchase. UPDATES are those decimal increments - 10.6.7 to 10.6.8  or Logic 9.1.3 to 9.1.6 that are free.
    Sometimes the sequence of installs can make a difference.
    Good luck,

  • A while ago I wanted to download/buy an album on my iPhone 4 but I didnt have enough space so I deleted some stuff and downloaded the album. well ever since then my other music won't play, only that one album will play and none of my other music will play

    a while ago I wanted to buy an album but I didn't have enough space on my phone, (iPhone 4) so I deleted some things off my phone and downloaded the album. well ever since then all my other music won't play, only that one album will play. I thought it was because I havent been able to get the software update on my phone but I don't have enough space for that either. I deleted almost all my photos, all my apps, i deleted almost all the info that is on the apps that you can't delete, but it says I have too much music and I only have 45 songs!!!!!!!! and I don't want to delete them because that's what I'm trying to listen to but I can't because of whatever reason. PLEASE HELP!!

    1, you can't at the moment, though with iOS 5 in the Autumn, from http://www.apple.com/ios/ios5/features.html#photos :
    Even organize your photos in albums — right on your device
    2, by removing it from you synced from and re-syncing. Only photos taken with the iPad, copied to it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/websites etc can be deleted directly on the iPad (either via the trashcan icon in the top right corner if viewing the photo in full screen, or via the icon of the box with the arrow coming out of it in thumbnail view)
    3, the location of the photos that you synced to the iPad should be listed on the iPad's Photos tab when connected to your computer's iTunes.
    4, you can copy the photos from your iPad to your computer : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083 . You should also be able to delete them from the iPad as part of the transfer process to your computer, and it's then your choice whether to add them to your sync photo list so as to copy them back to the iPad. Copying them to your computer would allow you to organise them into folders and therefore be able to sync them back into separate albums.
    5, I don't use Dropbox either. There are some third-party browser apps in the iTunes App Store that allow you to download pages so that you can view them when offline e.g. Atomic Web (the whole page is saved within Atomic Web, it doesn't place a photo into the Photos app)
    6, deleting content should help. If you remove an app from your iPad then you also remove the content that it's got on the iPad - so if you then decide to reinstall it back onto the iPad then you will need to manually add back any content that you want in it. None of the Apple built-in apps (including Photos) can be removed from the iPad

  • If my iPhone was stolen and i want to reactive an old phone using that same number for the time being while i waited to see if I could get my iPhone back, would the iPhone still work while i was using a re-activated old phone of mine?

    If my iPhone was stolen and i want to reactive an old phone using that same number for the time being while i waited to see if I could get my iPhone back, would the iPhone still work while i was using a re-activated old phone of mine?

    If a new SIM is activated on the same account for the same number, any existing SIMs for that number are deactivated.
    Why exactly would you care if the SIM in the missing device still works or not?

    Hello I am using Ipad 4 and its charger is not working while I was using it few days before and it was working properly now it says that the cable does not support this Ipad Please Help me out.

    Try a reset:
    - Hold the home button and sleep/wake button down at the same time. When the Apple logo appears release both buttons then try and charge again.
    If issue persists try:
    - Another known working cable
    - Check the charging port for any damage or debris
    - You could also use a dry soft bristle toothbrush and gently brush it on the port to clean it of any debris that could be in there

    Hi
    Please describe How You go from PPT to iDVD. Via iMovie ?
    If so - then convert Your .wma file to .aiff (same kHz) and use this in iMovie instead. (no .mp3 either)

  • QuickTime movies that worked in 10.7 don't play in 10.8

    I have several movies and clips, YouTube videos, etc. that worked just fine under Lion (10.7) but don't run at all under Mountain Lion (10.8). Some will open but not do anything when I click play. Others don't even open. What's up with this and how do I fix it short of dumping 10.8 and starting over with 10.7?

    I don't think that I had any additional codecs installed before. It was pretty straight forward QuickTime.
    I did have "Flip4Mac" installed to play WMV files through QuickTime under Lion and it worked fine, when I updated to Mountain Lion I also updated Flip4Mac to the newest vesion which says it runs under Mountain Lion.
    The suggestion that I install VLC player does play the movies but each one has to be opened individually in VLC which is a bit of a pain.
    I reinstalled QT 10.2 (603) and the problem remains. QT will open MOV files, but won't play them no matter how many times I click on the play button or open/re-open the file. So far any new movie file I downlad will play, it's just anything downloaded uner previous versions of OS-X that won't work. It's really weird.
