• I am unable to adapt both the screen saver is activated

  I am unable to adapt both the screen saver is activated, I put the link, but it acts as if it was before progrmmed?

  Also is there a way to avoid to connect every time?

  The problem with these parameters is that they overlap.  The screen saver setting is perhaps not the one place to look: you should also watch your 'screen time out", as well as waiting times"lock screen ".  In addition, it could be the energy saving sleep timer.  From the point of view of the user, they all look the same (the screen turns off), but to get the desired exact situation, you may need to check up to 4 places.

  1. Right-click on the desktop > personalize > screen saver
     Even if you do not use a screensaver, this timer value is used to lock the screen.  The value 'none' and make sure that the check box is disabled, it does not require a password.
  2. Power options > Change when turn off the display
     Also look at the "require a password on wakeup" option here
     
  3. Power options > change when the computer sleeps
     Also look at the "require a password on wakeup" option here
     
  4. Application settings > lock screen settings

• Increase the idle time before my screen saver is activated

  While I'm on the line, after 5 minutes of inactivity, while displaying a site etc, my screen saver is activated, making me use my mouse to go back to the page I was veiwing previously.  How can I increase the amount of time before the screen saver is turned on in windows 7.

  Thank you!!!

  Go to control panel and click on appearance and personalization.

  Under customization you will see a link to "Change screen saver", click on that and a configuration window should appear.

  There, you'll be able to set the time interval so that the screen saver is used.

  Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

  This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

  This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

  -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system.
  For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
  Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
  http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

  For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
  Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
  your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
  Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
  Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.

  Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
  with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

  Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
  Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
  BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

  Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
  each installation.

  Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
  presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
  in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
  necessary.

  Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
  manually by model.

  Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

  If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to disable the facilities of driver under Windows
  Updates, that leaves about Windows updates but it will not install the drivers that will be generally
  older and cause problems. If updates offers a new driver and then HIDE it (right click on it), then
  get new manually if you wish.

• Application window "minimized" and moves to the main screen when the screen saver is activated

  I'm under that WinVista Home Premium on an Intel based HP Pavilion.  I just upgraded (reluctantly) to IE 9 for IE 8 and as always seems inevitable, I'm having some problems with it.  Since that and I do not see how this is related to Internet Explorer, but when my screensaver active it causes open windows, Internet Explorer, MS Office and even my browser window Google Chrome to limit the size of the window.  I'm also using two monitors, and since the upgrade now open windows are moved my secondary monitor to the primary.  Before the upgrade to Internet Explorer, minimiseraient only windows MS Office (Excel, Word, etc.), no other applications, but they did not move to my main monitor.  They remained where I had them.  It's really annoying me and I can't locate any information on it.  The 'help' integrated within the Office is as useless as always.  I get closer really all that stuff from Microsoft of bagging and goes 100% with Google apps for eliminating my headaches.  It's my last ditch in order to get help from Microsoft.  I can not just take the frustration more.  I hope that someone out there cares enough and could have a resolution for me.  It would really make my week.

  Thank you in advance!

• Screen saver deactivates the functions of the remote trackpad

  With my new gen 4 Apple TV I discovered that whenever the screen saver appears I can't control my music with the remote control. I can't go to the next track or back to the previous track using the trackpad unless you use another function, that is the menu, to stop the screen saver. Once the screen saver is disabled trackpad allowing normally functions control me music. When the screen saver is active, all other functions like volume, menu and Siri, just doesn't the trackpads ability to move around the pieces of music. It's frustrating that I love the new screensaver and do not understand why they must be disabled to control my music, my previous Apple TV did not have this problem.

  Hello JBrown,

  It seems at this point that the only way to pass songs without disturbing the screensaver is to ask Siri to do.

  Just hold down the button of Siri and say "ignore this song."

• 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.

  Hello

  ·         You can use the keyboard or the mouse wireless?

  I know, a wireless device can cause damaged screen saver. If so, please change another available cable device.

  By default, the settings are different from different screensavers. Some screensavers have these options to be set in the window of the screen saver, as the text the screen saver, 3D Screensaver pictures, popular screensaver and screensaver of Windows Live Photo Gallery. Some screen savers have no options to set in the window of the screen saver, such as screen saver Aurora, the white screensaver, the screensaver bubbles, Mystify, ribbons screen saver screen saver and Windows Logo screen saver. However, if you want to change these settings for screen savers, you can customize them through the registry instead.

  To resolve this problem, I would propose the following suggestions.

  Method 1: Try to scanner auditor of file system (CFS) on the computer that would be a system file corrupt on the computer search and replace.

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929833

   

  Method 2: Check if the screen saver is activated, please follow the following link to get the procedure.

  Enable or disable screen saver: http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/turn-your-screen-saver-on-or-off

  Method 3: try to change several screensavers and see if none of them works. You can visit the following Web site to change the screen saver.

• Windows 7 turn off the display does not work when you use empty screen saver.

  My friend is running Windows 7 x 64 on a desktop and x 32 on a laptop.  He found that if he chooses the screensaver empty (set to 5 minutes) and will display at 10 minutes, the screen never goes round.

  On my laptop, I use the screensaver of ribbons with the same settings and my laptop screen goes off as planned.  However when I go to the screen saver, the display is never off (actually so that empty screen saver was active, my mouse reappears after a certain time).

  There seems to be a Bug with the Windows 7 built in empty screen saver.

  Thoughts, other experiences, etc.? Alex

• Go to active windows and screen saver comes up.

  Original title: need more time

  My active pages are going and I get my screensaver, then I have to click back in my browser. I looked at my aid centres, nothing. I feel stupid like all out them, but can someone help me? God bless you.

  If mean you your screen saver "comes" too early, right-click on an empty area of your desktop, choose Properties, the screensaver tab and check your adjustments there.

  Click OK to save the settings and close the dialog box.

  If this isn't what you mean, you need to provide more details.

• Computer lock up after the active screen saver. __

  The problem: after the screensaver kicks in if I stop I'm usually back in the log on screen, however, if the computer starts to slow down, sleep, CV, I get a black screen and I can hear the computer still active in the background and I can hot key to open applications, but all I see is a black screen. Sometimes I see the mouse on the black screen. My resolution is to turn it off and turn it back on.

  Any ideas, I played with the Device Manager and deleted a few? the elements and rebooted to see if any device driver was causing the problem. I played around with the screen saver and power management and tried different settings and nothing works.

  See you soon.

• Start Screen Saver hot corner no longer works under macOS Sierra 10.12

  I use Active corners to allow my screen saver lock my screen forever.  The hot corner "Start screen saver" no longer works after upgrade to Sierra 10.12.  'Put display to Sleep' hot corner doesn't work, as do other things like "Disable screensaver" and "Launchpad".  I tried reversing the triggers and active corners and can confirm that four corners work, but none of the corners can trigger action to launch the screensaver.

  try restarting. works fine for me.
