Cannot turn off the screen saver

I don't know what happened, but the 'Start after' drop-down list is disabled and set to 5 minutes. I want to be able to change that. How can I get this permit.

I don't know if this is connected and I am less concerned in this matter at this time, but under Security & Privacy, the box "Ask for password" is selected and disabled. So I can't change that either.

Looks like someone has this before, here is the link and it has been resolved. Here is the link.

Screen saver 'start time' option grayed out

In regards to the second is that it?

Missing box "password required after the start of the screensaver or of sleep"

  • Cannot turn off the screen keyboard on

    Seems like a stupid question, but I can't seem to find the solution. When my wireless keyboard has a conflict of any sort, and stops working, it's great that I can use my mouse to go to accessibility options and get the screen keyboard to use in order to re-install the software, re - sync my settings bluetooth or something else. Once I get it all working again, I'm hard to find a way to disable the screen keyboard on.  I can't find anything in the help index or anywhere, that's all off once you have enabled. For now, I'm just close it after my PC boots every time which is very annoying because it seems add time to the boot sequence as well. What Miss me something that should be so simple. I can write the code, but I can't disable a keyboard?

  • Is Camileo S20 - possible to turn off the screen?

    Is it possible to turn off the screen when you use modes Time Lapse or motion detection to save energy?

    Hey Buddy,

    I downloaded the manual to the user off Camileo S20 and searched a little, but unfortunately I can't find any information about turning off the screen when you use Time Lapse or motion detection. It seems that the screen is always enabled.

    But you can connect the AC adapter when recording movies. If you still have the power. :)

  • Venue Pro 8 - button / stop does not turn off the screen

    I just got a coming 8 Pro (32g).  The user manual says that I should be able to press the power button and turn off the screen.  However, when I press the power button, nothing happens.  I can for 4 seconds and the PC will ask to stop, but pressing on this button does not put the tablet in standby or turn off the screen at all.  I have to go to settings-> Power-> sleep just to turn off the screen.

    Yes, I checked the setting of the button / stop under control panel, and it is set to "Sleep" for all cases, battery and plugged in.

    Is there another setting somewhere to turn on the power button to turn off the screen?
