Why does keypad lock when screen saver comes on?

Just recently, when I step away from notebook long enough for the screen saver to come on, key pad locks and i've had to force quit with power button to regain functionality of key pad.
Thoughts?
Thank you for your time in advance!

  • ITunes crashes when screen saver comes on

    Hello. When my screensaver comes on, iTunes stops playing. When I wake my computer from the screensaver, there is a window on my computer saying that iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close. I'm forced to shut iTunes down.
    Anyone encountered this, and have a solution??
    Please help! Thanks!
    My specs:
    Windows Vista RC2
    iTunes 7.0.2.16

    If I read it right, the advice there is to turn off the screen saver and turn it back on all the time. Not terribly helpful.
    I am having this same problem, it started when I downloaded/upgraded iTunes 7.0.2.16, before that it was no problem.
    I have also had intermittent problems with iTunes playing one some in a playliest twice (repeat is not clicked, it will play a couple of sonds then repeat one then play a few more then repeat one) and once it played the same sone twice at the same time, about 10 seconds out of sync, which was very odd.
    Is this a bug in the new version, or does anybody know a fix? Help is appreciated!

  • IChat signs off when screen saver comes on

    If I ever leave my computer for the 10 minutes or so that it takes for the screen saver to come on, I'm kicked offline. When I get back to the regular screen it automatically signs me back on, but I want to stay online the entire time, not sign off and sign back on. Even if I change my screen saver settings to a longer period of time before it comes on, my computer still goes into some energy saving mode after only a few minutes, kicking me offline.
    Is there a way to prevent this?

    My Screen saver on my XP (BootCamp) nor my MacBook Pro in OS 10.5.1 do not do this.
    I see nothing in Screen Savers or Energy Saver that would cause this.
    It is almost like your computer is thinking it is Asleep whilst still displaying the Screen Saver. (Macs always cut Network connections on Sleep)

  • Why does video stop when a call comes in

    I know the iPhone is a phone first and the rest follows, but it surprised me that the Iphone stopped recording a video I was making when a call came in.
    I would like the choise to ignore the call an keep on recording.
    I can't find a setting for this.
    Info/help appriciated
    iPhone 4S with latest iOs

    Thanks GCSS-MC, I will do that in future. Still seems like a bug/flaw to me, but like I already wrote, maybe I must accept it's a phone first and video camera later..

  • I have over 60,000 photos in my iPhoto.  When my screen saver comes on it randomly shows certain photos.  Often, these photos are old and I in turn find the desire to print said photo.  Is there a way the screen saver can convey a photo file name as well?

    1. No.
    2. Yes.
    3. Some apps for dealing with duplicates in iPhoto
    iPhoto Library Manager
    Duplicate Annihilator
    Decliner

  • Why does my lock screen glow green?

    Why does my lock screen glow green? It does it quite often, no affects on  the phone.

    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

  • Screen Saver Come On When Unwanted

    OK, this one has me stumped. It started about a week ago.
    Using 10.5.8 on a Dual G5 Power Mac, the screen saver comes on even though all of the Preferences settings are set to be off. This happens even when there are computer processes going on, such as recording a long movie screen capture using SnapZPro for example.
    The Screen Saver preference pane Time slider is all the way to NEVER. All the Hot Corners are set to nothing. Yet it still comes on.
    I could not find a Screen Saver .plist to trash in order to try and reset it.
    Any suggestions for a fix?
    Thanks in advance.

    Also take a look at the Energy Saver settings for when the display is set to go blank / dark / turn off.

  • Why does a pop up screen ask me to extract the image using Lightroom Installer, when all I want to d

    Why does a pop up screen ask me to extract the image using Lightroom Installer, when all I want to do is view it ?

    My local computer shop solved the problem. Apparently when you download cloud it changes a lot of settings.
    So second issue.
    Why do I now get asked to burn to disc rather than saving to my hard drive when I want to export from Lightroom ?

  • Screen Saver does not use selected Screen Saver when activated

    Screen Saver does not use selected Screen Saver when activated. After "Start screen saver" elapse time has been reached, a blank black full screen is displayed. I can activate the selected screen saver by using the hot corners function. Any help with this matter will be greatfully received.

    Hi again sassey,
    You're assuming correctly. Simply change the settings so that your screen saver activates before the sleep settings.
    Hope this solves your problem...

  • My iphone4s does not lock the screen automatically when playing music and charging

    My iphone4s (iso5.1) does not lock the screen automatically with the condition in charging and playing music.
    System has been set to lock the screen in 1 mins.
    Everything goes fine when not in charging, the system can lock well even playing music.
    System can lock as well when all the music playing apps are closed, even when charging.
    I don't think that's my apps' problem, all my music playing apps have the same problem.
    My ipod has the exact same problem described above, I believe that's an iso system bug.

    It's not something i'm familar with but i will forward it internally for investigation. Could you please send me a PM with the IMEI of your phone and the build number? You can find these under Settings -> About phone and Settings -> About phone -> Status.

  • Why does my iphone 3gs screen goes black after reaching another party and won't come back on to press end the call

    why does my iphone 3gs screen goes black after reaching another party and won't come back on to end the call

    hi smalley3,
    Welcome to the Forums.
    The flickering issue maybe due to a bad LCD cable or in some cases, a faulty GPU (the GPU is integrated to the CPU, and the CPU is soldered to the motherboard).
    If there's still no image on the screen even after connecting an external display then you likely have a bad GPU.
    In this case, I recommend you contact support for service (and also to see if there's a consideration that can be done on the warranty repair).
