what shows on screen at startup when using find my mac if owner locks it?

A gray screen where they will have to enter a six digit passcode to unlock the Mac. If the Mac were being used and the remote lock sent, the computer would re-boot to this screen.

  • What causes the screen to magnify when using wireless mouse in Safari?

    Sometime when clicking the mouse in Safari the screen will magnify.  Why?

    Check your Magic Mouse preferences. There's a preference for zooming the screen in Safari similar to the double tap zoom for iOS devices. You can change that configuration.

    Apple Logo Screen (turn on screen) suddenly appear when using my iPad Mini Retina, but every thing goes back to normal after. It happens like few times since I bought my iPad since December. My OS is ISO7.0.4

    The iPad basically re-booted.
    Eveytime it re-boot, take note of what app you are running. You need to find out what is causing the re-boot.

  • TS4006 when using iCloud between mac and pad, what does this mean - "your iPad will  no longer back up to your computer automatically when you sync with iTunes"

    when using iCloud between mac and pad, what does this mean - "your iPad will  no longer back up to your computer automatically when you sync with iTunes"
    DONT WORRY EVERYONE, FOUND THE ANSWER I NEEDED FROM ANOTHER POSTING - THANK YOU

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You don't need to do anything, you have chosen to back up to iCloud instead of iTunes.
    Being able to back up to the cloud can be very useful, especially if you don't have access to a computer or have infrequent access to one, however unless you specifically need to use iCloud for back up, you will find backing up to iTunes significantly more convenient and possibly more reliable.

    It's possible you've got a 'hot corner' set up. If you have and move the mouse to a certain corner of the screen it'll do as you describe. Have a look in System Preferences>Mission Control, bottom left of the window click on the 'Hot Corners' button and see if there is anything in there.

  • Why can't I see my media in the left sidebar when using finder?

    I recently made the switch to Mac and I have some confusion. When using finder, I am not getting an option to browse through my media such as photos, videos and music. How do I get these folders to appear on my sidebar?
    Thankyou.

    "You don't, they only appear in open file dialogs and in tool panels like in iMovie, iPhoto.
    To view your media, you open the app that you use to manage that type of media." this on the other hand was zero help
    What you did doesn't show the Media Browser. It just shows the folders where your media is stored. You may be correct that was all that cobacc wanted. 
    The Media Browser shows the actual media in thumbnails so that you can preview the media.
    However, neither requires any Sharing services to be enabled.

  • Keep layout position when using Find/Change?

    When using Find/Change in InDesign CS4, each occurrence of the "Found" material is centered in the window, so the page moves around with each find. Is there a way to keep the page in a fixed position when searching through a document?

    Actually, I can think of a shortcut for the hard part: The user uses the
    regular find/change UI to make all their settings. Then, they run the
    script, which will simply use the settings in the UI. Nice, huh! So you
    could get a listBox of all the finds -- select the entry and you get
    taken to the desired location. Click the "change" button and the change
    is made. Here's a proof of concept:
    #targetengine engine20
    var myFinds = app.findText();
    var w = new Window("palette");
    var myList = w.add("listbox", undefined, myFinds);
    var changeButton = w.add("button", undefined, "Change");
    myList.onChange = gotoFound;
    changeButton.onClick = makeTheChange;
    w.show();
    function gotoFound(){
    app.select(myFinds[myList.selection.index].parentTextFrames[0].parent.parent);
         app.select(myFinds[myList.selection.index]);
    function makeTheChange(){
         myFinds[myList.selection.index].changeText();
    Obviously very rudimentary: but this does work in CS4. If the list is
    too long, though, the change button will disappear off the bottom of the
    screen. Also, really once the change is made, the item should be removed
    from the list, but there's a bug in CS4 that makes it impossible to do
    that simply, if I recall correctly (or was that only a tree list?)
    Also, I have found that the only sure way of getting the entire spread
    to show is as I've done it above (and it would need much more error
    checking than this -- for instance, overset text).

  • What is the latest OS I can use with a mac G5 with a dual 2.3 Ghz PowerPC G5 processor?

    What is the latest OS I can use with a mac G5 with a dual 2.3 Ghz PowerPC G5 processor? Everything on my computer has been running so slowly in the last few weeks. Have I finally outgrown OS 10.4.11? Would there be some other problem that would sudden make all my speed take a nose dive? I have 8.5 gigs of RAM...  Please advise!
    Thanks!  Matthew

    Everything on my computer has been running so slowly in the last few weeks.
    First open Console in Applications>Utilities, see if you have reapeating messages.
    How much Free Space do you have on the Hard Drive?
    At this point I think you should get Applejack...
    http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/15667/applejack
    After installing, reboot holding down CMD+s, (+s), then when the DOS like prompt shows, type in...
    applejack AUTO
    Then let it do all 6 of it's things.
    At least it'll eliminate some questions if it doesn't fix it.
    The 6 things it does are...
    Correct any Disk problems.
    Repair Permissions.
    Clear out Cache Files.
    Repair/check several plist files.
    Dump the VM files for a fresh start.
    Trash old Log files.
    First reboot will be slower, sometimes 2 or 3 restarts will be required for full benefit... my guess is files relying upon other files relying upon other files! :-)
    Disconnect the USB cable from any Uninterruptible Power Supply so the system doesn't shut down in the middle of the process.

  • I accidentaly clicked "remove" when using find my iphone...how do I log in when my iphone is not with me to find it?

    i was using "find my iphone" and when given the location it was an old location. A post read that the iphone was either turned off or the wifi was not being used. A remove or cancel  button appears with this message. I accidentally clicked cancel and now when trying to retrive information about the location of my device it says that I must refresh page or set up instructions. There must be a way to reinstate my account without my device physically present but I do not know how...can someone help me?

    What ever device you still have on had.  Go to settings - general - about - name - then the name.
    I have 4 devices 2 iphone and ipad - which I've name differently so I don't get confused when using find my iphone.
