screen saver on the logon screen

Hi all

in the settings I disabled completely safe screen. But now I've started my mac, waited half an hour and then tried to open a session. And... guess it... the logon screen showed a screen saver.

So two questions:

-where can I turn on / turn off screen saver for the logon screen?

-where can I set up the screen saver for the logon screen?

Greetings from the Germany

OK, a third party, but please Don t laugh:

s ' is he or safer screen saver?

In English, it means "Screen Saver".

To set the screensaver used at the login screen, you can use the following command, which in this example is the name of the computer aka things. 'Message' screen saver.

/ usr/bin/defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.screensaver loginWindowModulePath '/System/Library/Frameworks/ScreenSaver.framework/Resources/Computer Name.saver '.

    How can I make the computer sleep after 5 minutes of inactivity on the logon screen? Currently, on the login screen, white screen, but the computer is still running. Sleeping would save a lot of energy because the computer is used most of the time.

    Hi Phil.Ganchev,
     
    Using a laptop or a desktop computer?
     
    The reason for this question is, if you have a plugged AC adapter you must set power accordingly as opposed to laptop settings battery operated.
     
    I suggest you head over to the power settings and create your own power management.
     
    a. power by clicking on the Start button, open the Options click on the Control Panel, clicking system and security, and then clicking Power Options.

    (b) according to the plan you want to change, click on change plan settings.

    c. on the parameters of change in the plan page, choose "Put the computer to sleep" that you want to use when your computer is running on battery (if applicable) and when it is plugged.
    (Change in 5 minutes for the batteries and sector)

    Hello jerrylumpe

    1. If you use an old mouse, try to clean it.

    2. you can have a running process in the background that keeps XP thinking that he is busy and so the screen standby does not start.
    Go to msconfig and uncheck everything you don't need, then see if the screensaver will kick in.

    Start/run and type
    Msconfig
    Ok

    Startup tab
    Keep the page open then click on the link below. It will tell you what are all the entries and see if you can disable them or not

    It could be that something is resetting the timer. For example, it does take much vibration to move the mouse a little, and which will reset the timer to zero. Something like that would be possible? Or a pet that walks on the keyboard?

  • Microsoft Windows Vista Home Permium freezes to the logon screen or gets stuck

    Microsoft Windows Vista Home Permium freezes to the logon screen or crashes on the black screen with Copyright Microsoft Corporation with the load with six green bars moving through bar. It will start in safe mode. I ran the auto repair (recommended) when starting after being forced to stop. After it says its full it restarts and remains stuck on the black screen with Copyright Microsoft Corporation with the load bar with six green bars that cross so I force disable it again.

    I had no problem with this computer, he got in last seven. It was working fine yesterday and then the without wire came out, so I restarted the computer to find the connection again as I had done several times before. That's when it froze on the opening of session and password screen. Who started this cycle of freezing or stuck on the black screen with the loading bar permanently running.

    UPDATE:
    Start safe mode then made the instructions on the clean boot. Not checked, all iteams he says and rebooted and it worked. So I went to the next step to select only half to refine the list. Restarted and when at the loading screen for a little over 30 sec - 1 min (which is more short than the time it took to work initially after the first stage of the boot with all unchecked), but it goes to a completely black screen that has not happened before. So now, a little lost, or do I have to keep trying to refine?

    Hi Greg,.

    It will not harm the computer to run it in a boot environment.  Some programs do not work properly because they were probably responsible for their own services and rely on them to work.  You have disabled all non-Microsoft services, and things like printers and software can be difficult.

    Click Start, then options type power and press ENTER.  Let us make sure that the system is not configured to sleep.  Go ahead and put the power plan to High Performance, then click on change Plan settings below.  There will be a framework for "put the computer to sleep".  The value than ever.

    If it continues to turn black in clean boot mode, you may have a hardware problem.  One thing you could do if it's a desktop system and really need to use it now, it is the lid of the machine and aim a fan in the box.  This will help if it is overheating.

    Please complete the steps to diagnose the problem with the boot when you have the chance.

  • Missing user account from the logon screen icons

    I tried and tried to understand it, but not impossible.

    My 5 year old son and his friend were playing a game on the computer for a little while and when I tried to change username on my account (Administrator) the only icons that have been confirmed on the login screen of my son and an icon of the Virgin 'another user' that requires a user name and password.

    Previously, we had four icons of the user account on the opening screen of session with each of our own photos. Our accounts are always listed in the computer but I can't understand how to add icons to the logon screen.

    I can still get into the computer through my son's account.
