Set the screensaver via the Terminal timer

El Capitan, latest version running

Hello

To manage remote computers, I would like to set the timer to 0 CLI screen saver. I've seen several posts suggesting changing the entrance of com.apple.screensaver.plist called 'idleTime' but as far as I KNOW, there is no such key in this plist: affects only info on the current screen saver and a 'type', as you can see here.

I tried to add this key, but it did not work.

How can I achieve that?

Thank you

AS

Those that are stored in the ByHost folder. To change those, add the switch - currentHost:

values by default - currentHost write com.apple.screensaver temps_inactivite 1800

In addition, this key exists only if you change. If you leave it at the default of 20 minutes, there is no need key.

  • How to set the start time of QuickTime movie in AppleScript?

    I've been tasked with finding a way to play videos to QuickTime in full screen at a specific time.

    It seems that I have to use AppleScript, which I've never used it before.  I wrote this, that does everything, but from the beginning of time says:

    Tell application "QuickTime Player"

    Open the file "Macintosh Users:...: video56.mp4.

    present the document before

    play

    tell the end

    I found the dictionary AppleScript of QT (1. Open the Script Editor. 2. Choose file > open dictionary. 3. Select the reader QuickTime Player.) and think I want to use the document, currently.

    Where I'm stuck, but I can't understand how to use the document command.  All other orders that I used (open game) end in a 'v' and the document ends with a 'n', which is probably relevant.  How, I have no idea.

    Thanks in advance for any help!

    The v designates a file object.

    And the n is a document object.

    Examples:

    read the document 1

    document before playing

    read the document 2

    play tDoc - the tDoc variable contains a document object

    or with a block of tell

    tDoc said

    play

  • Cannot set the manual time zone on ipad

    IOS is updated. I'm try cnange my time zone manually. Whenever I select a city in new Madrid for example, the time zone remains as Sydney. I am unable to change it. Auto zone has been disabled because it acknowledges that Sydney. Looked far from a solution, but nobody else seems to have this problem.

    I think that 'set automatically' refers to the time, not the time zone. Apple devices are quite picky about having the correct time zone for the location, then you will not be able to change it.

    The charging time can be set for the scheduled recording.

    There is also a priority planning
    If the regular time intervals are ensuites to each other and there is more than one minute between the time of the end of the annex i and the next scheduled start time, scheduled recording will be performed correctly.

    When + start time of filling + and + hour of end padding + are value, the start time and end time more is the time the extra minutes.

    If planning time overlap, priority will be given to the scheduled recording starts first.
    When the scheduled recording that began the first ends, recording will switch to the next regular program.
    At that time, according to how much programming time to overlap, the section from the beginning of the next regular program is not registered.

  • HP 7640 set the time

    Just bought HP Envy 7640.  Initial Setup gave me twice the choice.  Both were wrong, so I chose the closest.  Now I can't understand how to set the correct time.  Tried to follow the instructions in another post for a 7610.  As I am new to HP printers, I could not understand or follow the instructions on the other post.  It says something about the integrated Web server, which means nothing to me.

    My philosophy has always been: If you can't solve a problem to ask for help.  Almost immediately after asking for help, will allow you to fix the problem yourself.
