With remote management enabled the screen saver never kicks in, the monitor never sleeps
The title says it all. With remote management enabled the screen saver never kicks in, the monitor never sleeps. This is with an iMac. So I have to leave remote management off, which means instead of using remote desktop I have to manage the machine with TeamViewer. Life is still good, but this seems like a bug, and there's a few things remote desktop does that TeamViewer can't.
You should use a specialized tool such as TextWrangler, the Property List Editor, or the defaults command in the Terminal to view and change plist files; those created with recent software are encoded so that a regular text editor will not properly parse them.

When I publish projects with AICC reporting enabled the SWF "breaks" and does not load.
When I publish projects with AICC reporting enabled the SWF "breaks" and does not load. If I change the publish method to SCORM the SWF works, and if I turn off reporting the SWF also works.
OK. That makes sense now. Captivate 6 changed over to Rustici's LMS drivers. Cp7 must have made even further changes that mean you must have an LMS present if you turn on reporting.
I would suggest you just turn off reporting while you are testing other aspects of the course functionality during development, and only turn on reporting when you are ready to upload to your LMS. -
Problem with remote desktop and lock screen
I know of the easy way to immediately lock a Mac's screen by clicking the menu bar lock icon from KeychainAccess. This works on every system under my control (rMBP running Mavericks, MacMini with 10.5 and Mavericks). However when I control the Macs via Remote Desktop (currently 3.7.2), that lock icon behaviour changes.
Trying to lock a 10.5 system, the screen inside the Remote Desktop window goes black immediately. Moving the mouse activates the password dialog. That is what I want. Doing the same in a remote Mavericks system, the screen goes to a dark blackish semi-transparent state. Moving the mouse immediately restores the normal desktop view, no password asked. Is this a feature or a bug in Remote Desktop? This change in behaviour must have come in around Lion or Mountain Lion.
---markus---Hi
Do you use the Intel Proset Utility to configurate the WLan connection?
Try to configure the WLan using this tool and check if the Wlan would disconnect again.
Im also interesting what Wlan driver did you use?
Did you use one from the Intel page?
If not, check the Intel page for the newest WLan driver version. -
MBP with Mountain Lion stuck on Screen Saver!
Opened MBP to find computer "stuck" on "Word of the Day" screen saver - had to re-boot. Any other reports?
At first, I thought this was a virus as I've never seen "Word of the Day" screen saver! I appears that Mountain Lion has a "random" setting for selection of screen savers.
Also, it was odd that a supposedly sleeping computer would have a screen saver on when opened. I've had Moutain Lion for months and have never seen this before.hi RPINO...im from mexico.
i have same problem.
I have the same problem as you. Yesterday I installed mountain lion and closing the lid turns off my MacBook, but the light it does not start. the screen freezes. macbook emits sounds: bit bit... -
Having a problem with ilife 08 and leopard screen saver
Hi,
Not sure if this is an osx leopard issue or a ilife 08 issue but before I did the upgrade I was able to use my entire iphoto library as random photos in the screensaver. Not it only let's me choose specific events or last import. it does not let me select the entire iphoto library?
Any ideas on this?In System Preferences/Screen Saver, you need to go down the list past all the Events and you will see a listing titled "Photos" just above the item titled "Last 12 Months". Select it and you will see the entire iPhoto Library there.

"Disable Screen Saver" hot corner no longer prevents Display Sleep
I am not sure whether it started only after I upgraded to 10.5.7, but I certainly have this very annoying issue right now.
I have "Disable Screen Saver" assigned to the top right "hot corner". Some time ago I could place my mouse pointer there in order to prevent activating of "Display Sleep" (as well as gradually dimming before jumping into bed).
It no longer works. I have my pointer in the right corner, and nevertheless the display first dims, then goes to sleep.
Is this only my problem? Any ideas how to fix it? Thanks!Anybody?

I have my screen saver set to a 2 min time out and to show up for music...and nothing is happening...any one having this isse...other than that....love apple tv...
I noticed my screen saver problem first while accessing the screen saver and syncing a whole lot of new photos.
Perhaps the AppleTV is unable to display slideshows while performing some kinds of synchronisation, and/or it can also "permanently" crash the slideshows requiring a reset.
All working now for me (let the sync finish, performed a reset), so I can't test it and don't really have the time... but hope the idea helps someone! -
I have an older NEC MultiSync LCD 1700V monitor I used for my MAC Power PC G5 (with the Tower). I am discarding the G% and have tried to connect to the laptop MAC BOOK Pro using the 15 pin dongle for connectivity. I get the screen with the desktop and icons, but I cannot get any applications or folders to come up on the screen. Is the monitor just outdated for the newer softward, or isk there some fix?
Please advise.
RSB123410.9 Mavericks changes the way displays are treated, and the new default is that each display is an independent workspace. This can be put back to the "correct" Extended Desktop way.
Windows in Mavericks reside in a single space by default, so they usually don't span multiple displays. When a window is dragged between displays, it appears translucent on one of the displays to indicate this. After you are done dragging the window, it snaps to one display.
If you need an app window to span multiple displays, deselect the option "Displays have separate Spaces" in the Mission Control pane of System Preferences.

I have a large project that i want to run over night and io would like to turn the monitor off or make it sleep.The power button on the the side of the monitor(20") when pressed says "do you want to put the computer to sleep, restart, shut down"...is it refering to the computer or the monitor ?
In the prefs the monitor power button is set to sleep mode yet these options come up and then they refer to the computer ...confused ?
Thanks
Matt"puts the system to sleep or wakes it" refers to both your monitor and G5.
to only turn your monitor on or off select option "turns the display on or off" does not affect G5.
no option to sleep monitor by itself with the power button on the display..
you can always use the sleep options in the Energy Saver window of system preferences then only your monitor will sleep and not your G5.
hope this helps. -

I have installed FF4.0 recently. My operating system is Mac OS X 10.6.7. When I am running with the plug-ins active the following happens . .
Initial memory occupied is around 450 Mb.
Over a period of time 1-3 Hours ( it varies ) the memory used increases to 1.7Gb and my use indicator says this is 100% of available memory.
At that point FF4.0 ceases to respond while other applications are still working ( Mail etc. ).
If I start FF4.0 in safe mode the memory used stays around 500 Mb and is stable over a day at least.I have installed FF4.0 recently. My operating system is Mac OS X 10.6.7. When I am running with the plug-ins active the following happens . .

I don't know why but the remote volume buttons wont work on my iPod. When I got it it was on running on 4.3.4 an it worked perfect but no it wont. Please help
Try the standard fixes to rule out a sftware problem:
- Reset. Nothing will be lost.
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory defaults/new iPod
If still a problem then an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order. -
I just bought a new external monitor (ASUS), and it have DVI and VGA plugs. I bought the DVI adapter to connect with my macbook pro laptop. But the external monitor remain black… so I turn it off then turn it back on, it said "No VGA signal". Does it means I have to use VGA adapter instead? I am not sure how it work, I am very new to it… I hope you can help me out!
Thanks!Use the Transfer Purchases command in the File menu of iTunes.

Mountain Lion Server: add network user to remote management
Hi,
So recently I have upgraded from Lion Server to ML Server. A little disappointing, but whatever, I've moved on and got everything almost back to where I had it with Lion.
My last few issues I believe are related but can't quite figure it out. In Lion I have an admin profile and then a network user profile that I used on my MBP bound with AD. I'm at the stage where my nre network user can log in on the server machine but I can't log in as the network user via screen sharing. I can't add a network user to Remote Management, and with Remote Management enabled Screen Sharing is greyed out. I'd really like this to work.
My second problem is that I can't bind my MBP to the server but even when bound the network user account can't log in.
Any body have any ideas?
Thanks!I had this problem on a clean install.
The solution was incredibly simple for me, but only after I saw Ross.M's note about opening the Users & Groups settings panel (in the OS System Prefs, not in server) and rebinding to OD server under Login Options.
That was not the solution for me, but under Login Options I discovered a previously unnoticed pref for "Allow network users to login at login window." I had this option set (apparently by default) to "Only these network users:" but with an empty list. Adding my users to the list made it work perfectly.

Screen Sharing and Remote Management
Is there a way in 10.6 to make both Screen Sharing and Remote Management run at the same time?
In the past (10.5), you could convince Mac OS to run both Screen Sharing and Remote Management to run simultaneously. I say "convince" because you could not enable them both through System Preferences. You could turn one on, then use Terminal to enable the other. This worked great for me, because I needed remote management for the machines I managed, and the users need screen sharing to work from home.
However, the work-around for 10.5 no longer seems to work for 10.6. Has any one gotten this to work yet for 10.6? Thanks!I figured this out. First enable Remote Management via System Preferences. Then create /private/etc/ScreenSharing.launchd with 'enabled' as it's contents.
