System 7: How to unlock screensaver?

Hi,
I own a vintage "LC II" (a.k.a. "Macintosh Performa 400") with System 7.x installed years ago. Unfortunately I am not able to login to this baby anymore, because after the initial boot screensaver will fireup and lock the screen with a password.
I would like to know either if;
1) is there any key–combination or such to "unlock" screensaver/login?
2) is there any key–combination to "reset things"?
3) is there a easy–to–follow guide to create installation floppies to reinstall from scratch?
Thanks.

Thanks Grant! I killed off even more brain cells trying to think of that name.
exalted,
You can look at this Apple site for the software.
http://download.info.apple.com/Apple_Support_Area/Apple_Software_Updates/English -North_American/Macintosh/System/Older_System/
You can get through 7.5.3 at no charge and the updaters to 7.5.5 are also there. I beleive you must get the files to a Mac with a floppy drive that recognizes low-density disks to make the startup floppies. I bet Grant remembers better than I do.

Hello Experts,
In any SAP System,if a user having authorizations has mistakingly locked all the users of the SAP system,then how wll we unlock those users bcoz we wont be able to logon into the SAP System. Requested to revert your valuable replies at earliest.This happened with us,how to resolve it.My Email Id is [email protected] .
Regards,
Saumya

Hello Siva And Manas,
Thanx for ur replies .
Manas: These SQL statements we hv to run at the Command Prompt level only na.......
Siva : U r telling to delete the SAP* user ,u dont mean with the System created default user SAP* rite but u mean to delete our self created SAP*/any super user rite? Secondly how to delete tat user at the database level?
Regards,
Saumya
If all the users are locked , they can only be unlocked via sql.
Actually waht happens is if the uflag field of an user in table usr02 is 0 then the user is unlocked. Different values of the uflag field in table USR02 mean:
0          User not locked
32         Locked by CUA central administrator
64         Locked by administrator
128       Locked after failed logon
Incase all the users are locked execute the following sql to unlock them
update sap<sid>.usr02   (means update sapd01.usr02 or sapq01.usr02 etc)
set uflag='0' ;
commit.;
This unlocks all the users.
update sap<sid>.usr02
set uflag='0' where bname='xxx';
commit.;
This unlocksonly the user xxx.

After I click system preferences to change my screensaver, it will say loading images and the cursor will be loading. How do i fix this ?

After I click system preferences to change my screensaver, it will say loading images and the cursor will be loading. How do i fix this to be able to change my screensaver and not have my computer do this?

Try system preferences>desktop,click desktop tab. Click the Apple folders, iPhoto, or folders. Click the pic you want on the icon, it should put the pic as your wallpaper. You can change the picture if you change picture if you click it and the time. Unless I don't understand your question. ATB

‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

How to Unlock 2nd Internal HD??

2 internal HDs, one for system & apps, the 2nd for data. Carbon copied the internal sys HD (OS 10.4.11) to the data drive. Competed an erase and install to 10.5.6 and then to 10.5.7. All drives show BUT can not open folders nor add data to the internal "data" drive. Highlight the drive and select "Get Info", click on the locked icon and enter password, close info window and does not work. Reopen window and icon shows locked.
Inserted OS 10.5 install disc and used Disc Utility to repair permissions and restarted, same issue. Any suggestions on how to unlock the internal HD and all its contents??

Thanks Justin. The Get Info window showed the lock and the ignore ownership box was checked but I went ahead and entered the password. It works now!! Thanks for the help.

Hi:
If you are referring to the Windows password, please read the info below on how to perform a system recovery (factory reset).

If you are referring to a power on (BIOS) password, unfortunately, that I do not know how to remove.
There are no instructions for doing that.

How to unlock a client

Hi everyone
I have an issue..
Can anybody tell me how to unlock a client from client 000..
In client 800 all users are locked.
Is there a way to do that..
thank you.
Kiran kumar.

Hi Kiran,
1. To lock or unlock a client only in an in R/3 System, run the following functions via tcode SE37:
1. SSCR_LOCK_CLIENT
2. SSCR_UNLOCK_CLIENT
Once we run these functions with a client as input, that client will be locked/unlocked. Actually this function set flag '' Client is locked temporarily for client copy" in client maintenance menu. And the client will be available for users DDIC and SAP*. If you try to login in that client as any user, system gives message that ' Client locked temporarily'.
Procedure to unlock the client
     1. Goto SE37
     2. Specify function module as SSCR_UNLOCK_CLIENT
     3. Click on icon Single test or F8.
     4. Specify the client which you want to lock and click on execute(F8).
2. If all the users are locked, they can be unlocked by
a) GO to command prompt type tp unlocksys <SID> pf=//usr/sap/trans/bin/TP_DOMAIN_<SID>.pfl;
b) or else try this command at ur sql plus query level
Go to cmd prompt.
Sqlplus /nolog
conn /as sysdba
this will take you to the sqlprompt.
Just execute the earlier commands there.
sqlplus>UPDATE SAP<schema>.usr02 set uflag=0 where mandt=<CLNT NO> and uflag=64;
this statement actually unlocks the users of that particular client. So, try for every client in that sap system.
c) You can delete sap*
Go to cmd prompt.
Sqlplus /nolog
conn /as sysdba
sqlplus>DELETE SAP<SID>.usr02 where mandt='CLIENT.NO' and bname=SAP*;
after doing this restart the system. So, that a new user with the name "sap" gets generated with password "pass". Provided the parameter is set login/no_automatic_user_sapstar= 0 (Automatic user SAP is permitted).

How to prevent screensaver with air

I built a kiosk Air application.
I would like to know how to prevent screensaver to arise while my Kiosk is running.
Thanks

Here's what I found from the docs:
For AIR content running in full-screen mode, the system screen saver and power-saving options are disabled during play until either the video input stops or the user exits full-screen mode
There's also been at least one feature request for this on ideas.adobe.com. I'd encourage you to cast you vote and let others know that might also benefit.
Thanks,
Chris
