screen saver changes when I hit the lower right

It's the strangest thing. Sometimes it will change my screensaver without my wanting to-it often seems to happen when I press on or make slip somewhere in the lower right of the screen, as when I have something let drag to the trash. Sometimes it will just open up with each other when I restart. Looks like sometimes when you drag on the trackpad to change to another application.

Has someone else happen? Anyone have clues as to why it happens?

Hello durantophone,

Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.

If your screen saver is activated when you move your cursor in one of the corners, it is very likely that you have configured to activate the screen saver "corners". Take a look at the following article, specifically in the preferences setting.

Open system preferences > Desktop & screen saver.

By clicking on the button active corners offers you the options to enable or disable the screen saver when you move your pointer over one of the corners of the screen. Choose an option from the drop-down menu which corresponds to a specific angle.

  • Screen resolution/size changes when you use the touchpad

    Bought Probbok 4530 s. Win 7. I continue to have the screen/print resolutiom size change when you use the touch pad. The pointer seems to 'paste' and then when I move it, the screen get is much lower or higher. I continually have to type ctrl + or - to get the size of the screen back to the 'normal '. Is this something to do with the settings for the touchpad or pointer? Its driving me crazy...

    Hell, I think that this is it... Pinch Zoom! I have disabled that, as well as the "allow the theme change mouse pointers" on the pointers tab. I'm playing with it now, and it seems to have solved the problem. I'll let you know if this isn't... Thanks for the great help, Dragon fur!

  • When I turn on my computer, I get a bubble in the lower right of the desktop that says: "a program has been blocked from editing your search default setting". Then "click to change your notification settings."

    Whenever I turn on my computer I have a bubble in the lower right corner of the desktop that says: 'Search Settings Notification' then 'program has been blocked from modifying your search default setting". Then "click to change your notification settings."
    When I click I get a box called Toolbar Options. Tab shows the search parameters. Statement: "search settings protects your search settings of the browser to keep the programs change without your knowledge." I am then presented with 2 boxes checked with the following instructions: 1. protect my browser default search and let know me of any attempt to change it.  2. enable the browser error Network Wizard page.  Downstairs, the options are either save or cancel.
    My question is what does all this mean? Should I uncheck boxes or both? How can I avoid this message occurs ever time I turn on PC?

    I would check the first box for sure, the second is not as important but probably a good idea to choose from as well. Once you save it, it should not appear again.

    Check and see your current newtab setting:

    Type of topic: config< enter > in the address bar.
    If a warning screen is displayed, press the button to be careful .
    At the top of the screen is a search bar. Type browser.newtab.url
    This indicates what to show when a new tab opens Firefox.
    If you want, right click and select Edit. You can change the setting

    topic: Home (Default Firefox homepage),
    on: newtab (displays the more visited sites),
    Subject: vacuum (a blank page),

    or you can enter any web page or Subject: page you want.

  • Why the screen saver does not work in the two screens?

    I have a monitor connected to my laptop using the VGA connector.

    In dual screen extended mode, Win7 screen saver stops working after unpluging external monitor

    I have problems of this kind.

    I have listed what I've done to illustrate how to reproduce this.

    My OS is win7 32 bit.

    The replication steps are

    1. start on OS with integrated display (it is the system of n. b.)

    2. attach the HDMI (external monitor).

    3. turn on the extended mode and HDMI monitor as the primary device.

    4. set the screen saver 3D to be active and preview.

    Screensaver 3D drawing now works on the main screen.

    the secondary monitor (built-in monitor) working with black screen.

    5. hot unplug a HDMI monitor.

    6. the display of the 3D screen saver is changed back to the built-in screen.

    7. BUT the drawing of 3D on the built-in screen screensaver is STOPPED (= NOT updated).

    8 move the mouse, built-in monitor escapes from the idle screen status (operating system is still alive)

    Is this an OS behave as expected?

  • How can I stop the page to reload automatically when I hit the back button?

    A few months back, I upgraded to a new laptop, and since then, when I hit the back button, it refreshes the previous page from what I can understand. On my last laptop, if I was doing some research on a site and click the previous button, the search bar would be automatically ready to hit the BACKSPACE and delete what is there for a new search. Now, when I hit the back button, I have to manually click inside the search box to do, and I hate it. When you are doing research on multiple sites, like this time savers really help. This applies to regular sites (forums, online stores, etc.), not search like Google sites.

    I don't have this problem on my old laptop and does not know how to solve this problem on this one. They are the two Win7 x 64, and version of the browser is not the issue. I started Firefox on this computer that same exact on the last of them, and after the updates, it's always the same. I am currently on 8.0 but will soon be upgrading to the new.

    Do you mean that the search bar on this page focus?

    Start Firefox in Firefox to solve the issues in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > appearance/themes).

  • Can I disable the new shipment when I hit the back button

    After you send a form (search form, say) and then by clicking a link on the page of results ("action"), I want to go back to the page of the form and change the criteria of form. However, when I hit the back button Firefox always want to re-post form data before I can go back further in history. Very clumsy. Is there a way to prevent this re-post and simply open the cached page?

    Google Chrome altogether kindly view of a page instead of the page of 'action' of the form which gives you the opportunity to submit again, or you can simply click back to return to the page of the form. I don't think that Firefox should force you to submit a form if you just try to navigate back in your history.

    I used to work around this problem by using the slot back button to choose the page of form directly, but the navigation/FF4 FF5 default buttons is not that much longer (that I can find anyway).

    Is there a topic: config that will prevent this re - submit forced?

    Use one of the following methods to open the history list and work around the page that gives the alert:

    • Right-click on the back or next button
    • Press and hold the left button of the mouse on the active back or forward button until the list opens

  • Why my police/text change when I pass the classic 3D Ray traced 3D in After Effects?

    My fonts/text changes when I pass the classic 3D Ray traced 3D. Why would he do that? In addition, I can't have the fonts/txt look the same after I switch from classic to the Ray traced. How can I get it to look the same?

    'Normality' disappears because blend modes do not work in the ray-traced rendering engine. Fortunately, you just had it set to normal and weren't trying not to use the screen or multiply or something else. It shouldn't be a problem for you.

    The text changes color is because the ray-traced rendering engine is made things very differently. You must go in the hardware settings and adjust them to the ray-traced rendering engine. For example, it is reflective? If so, that would make a big difference in how it looks based on what you have reflecting.

    That said, Adobe is not putting more work in the ray-traced rendering engine, so if I were you, I would focus my learn more about the new way to do 3d in AE (because he will get better and better as they put more time development in there).
