[Solved] caffeine-ng does not stop screen lock

I installed caffeine-ng from AUR but it does not seem to work.  Whenever I'm playing my old NES games on higan the screen starts to go to sleep.  The caffeine icon is in my systray and it has the "steam" coming out the top indicating that it is working.   Any ideas?  Thanks.

Does this happen even if you're using keyboard or a controller or only when you're AFK for some time?
I can't help you with caffeine, but you can disable dpms and / or screen blanking in other ways.

    Hello,
    You should better post your question to a more related Forum, like Transact-SQL or SQL Server Database Engine; this Forum is for samples & community Projects.
    Have you checked the execution plan if indexes are used?
    You could update the data in chunks, e.g. 10.000 rows per execution. For this you have to add a TOP clause and a filter to update only those, who are not updated yet.
    update TOP (10000) Employees
    set Status = 'Close'
    where statusid IN
    (select statusid
    from MyView
    where DownloadedDate ='2014-07-27 00:00:00.000')
    AND Status <> 'Close'

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    I have seen a lot of cases like your issue, and it's easy to solve.
    First, open Disk Utility, select Macintosh HD in the sidebar and repair permissions. Sometimes, a permission can be damaged and it makes that an application doesn't work properly.
    If that doesn't work, open Finder, select Go menu > Go to Folder, type ~/Library/Prefereces, delete "com.apple.desktop.plist" and "com.apple.systempreferences.plist" and restart

    If restoring the phone as new did not solve your problem, you'll need to bring the phone to Apple for evaluation.

    This sounds like a problem you should take up with Apple Customer Support.

    My Macbook starts up, goes to the white screen with the gray apple, the little loading sign loads, and color wheel appears, and DOES NOT STOP PEIROD!
    Even when I restart, shut it down; or when it runs down to no battery, when I plug in the power cord for a while, it loads up to the same stinking screen!
                                                      PLEASE HELP ME!

    Restart the computer and immediately hold the option key down.
    If the computer boots and you see two hard drive icons, use the arrow key to select the Recovery drive, and press Return.
    You will get to a screen that looks like the image here:
    http://www.apple.com/osx/recovery/
    Select the fourth item and press Return.
    In Disk Utility, select the hard drive in the left column, then First Aid, then click on Repair Disk.
    When that is done, quit DU and restart the computer.

  • Synchronization does not stops

    Hi all
    After installing MI, MAM etc, during the Synchronization for the data (5000 measurement points), the data comes but the Synchronization does not stops or takes a very long time to stop. Confirmed about the data by tracking the memory and also by restartign the device once the memory is stable, the data exists.
    Similarly while creating measurement documents for 150 docuemtns syn works fine, but for 300 documents the data gets successfully posted but the sync does not stops unitl we manually restart the device.
    We use Symbol 9090 and program memory available is 2 to 3 MB.
    Is it a memory issue??  Did any one had come accross this problem??
    Thanks
    Raj

    Hi Raj
      Surprised that these recomendations doesnt work. Anyway i have one more recomendation which is related to TIME AGENT. If you are using any of the Agent feature, which is made available recently in MI then this could also result in an endless sync. The Time agent which is one of the several Agents, can never have a value TRUE for the History parameter. As for the possible solution,  please change the value of AGENT_HISTORY in the TIME_AGENT parameter set to FALSE and then assign this parameter set to a device configuration which inturn in assigned to a device.  Please test this new scenario with a fresh client installation and not with an already synced client. This should solve this endless problem.
    Or other way of testing this is In the client there is a file named <b><i>agents.properties</i></b> in the MI settings folder. Here there would an entry called TRACE_AGENT#AGENT_HISTORY=TRUE. Please set his value to FALSE. Let me know if this works.
    Best Regards

  • Render engine does not stop after reaching 100%

    It looks like to me that the render engine does not stop after reaching 100%. It does not affect the rendered file which is fine and complete
    -the Pause and Stop buttons are displayed but have no effect on pausing or stoping the render
    -when I want to quit SG, it locks up and have to Force Quit to get out of it.
    I really like the program though and hope you are going to fine tune the UI and make it look like After Effect and Premiere.
    I would encourage you to instaure round tripping between these two apps and SG.
    It would be nice to have curves as well.
    Thanks guys

    Could you open the defaultTrace.X.trc files and check for the errors?
    Good from my point of view is to make a search if those files for some stack traces with the string ".dsr."

    Try:

    - 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.

  • Automator Script Does Not Stop

    Mountain Lion on MacBook Air
    This Automator App Script (enablelocal.app)

              do shell script "sudo tmutil enablelocal /" password "xxxx" with administrator privileges
              return input
    end run

    What else do I need to have the workflow stop?
    Thanks

    sudo never belongs in a do shell script command.
    Consider what happens when you run sudo at the command line - the chances are it prompts you for the admin password. do shell script specifically prevents user interaction, so sudo asks for a password, but there's no way for you to see this, or enter a password to continue. That's what's happening here - your sudo is waiting for a password it can never get.
    '... with administrator privileges' is the right way to go. Because this isn't part of the command you're passing to 'do shell script, AppleScript can elevate the privileges (including prompting for username and password) befor invoking the shell command. Problem solved.

    Move the Safari app from the Desktop to the Applications folder.
    Restart your Mac.

  • HT201335 when using apple tv with my ipad, the mirroring function does not work, screen goes black, what is the issue?

    when using apple tv with my ipad, the mirroring function does not work, screen goes black, what is the issue?  My son's Ipad(same as kind as mine) works ok with the apple tv but mine does not.  Any suggestions?

    Hello Nina Izurin,
    While written for the iPhone, the troubleshooting below can help resolve issues with your iPad's camera, as well.
    Camera isn't functioning or has undesired image quality
    If the screen shows a closed lens or black image, force quit the Camera app.
    If you do not see the Camera app on the Home screen, try searching for it in Spotlight. If the camera does not show up in the search, check to make sure that Restrictions are not turned on by tappingSettings > General > Restrictions.
    Ensure the camera lens is clean and free from any obstructions. Use a microfiber polishing cloth to clean the lens.
    Cases can interfere with the camera and the flash. Try gently cleaning the lens with a clean dry cloth or removing the case if you see image or color-quality issues with photos.
    Try turning iPhone off and then back on.
    Tap to focus the camera on the subject. The image may pulse or briefly go in and out of focus as it adjusts.
    Try to remain steady while focusing:
    Still images: Remain steady while taking the picture. If you move too far in any direction, the camera automatically refocuses to the center.
    Note: If you take a picture with iPhone turned sideways, it is automatically saved in landscape orientation.
    Video: Adjust focus before you begin recording. You can also tap to readjust focus while recording. Exiting the Camera application while recording will stop recording and will save the video to the Camera Roll.
    Note: Video-recording features are not available on original iPhone or iPhone 3G.
    If your iPhone has a front and rear camera, try switching between them to verify if the issue persists on both.
    My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?

  • HELP-sound file read vi does not stop at end of WAV file

    Hi,
    I am a newbie and I am working on a project that opens a .wav file and plays it (with volume control). I found all the sound related examples to be extremely helpful and I can just modify the Sound file to Sound output.vi example for the purpose of my project.
    I am running into a problem where the vi does not stop  at the end of the wav file, and it seems to loop for a while. the wav file i've been using was over a min long (and it was converted from a data file to a wav file, if that matters). I've attached my modified vi here, and appreciate any help.
    Thank you!

    Sound File to Sound Output_simpleMod.vi ‏24 KB

    Christy,
          I think the functionality you are looking for is that you want to play your wav file in it's entirety every iteration of the while loop. If this is the case then you just need to expand the While Loop to encompass the Sound Output Configure and the Sound Output Wait VIs and change the configure VI to Finite Samples instead of Continuous Samples. I have attached a picture showing what this looks like. If you are just wanting to play your file once and be done with it, then you can change the configure VI to Finite Samples and just get rid of the While Loop completely and then the VI will just run once. Hope this helps!
