Two monitors and photo screen saver

In Vista, how to make the photo screen saver to display pictures on both of my monitors?  I have nothing seems to do the job.  It worked fine under XP.

Hi Boz,

Vista doesn't have the function of screensaver photo on several monitors. You can use your favorite search engine to search for a third party application that can support.

  • Using photos screen saver does not work but work other screensavers

    Hi there - we use Vista for some time, we have been able to use the photo screen saver option and it worked very well.  All of a sudden it has stopped working and we now get only a blank screen.  All the other screen savers simply do not work the photo option.  When we choose the picture option on what we can see the slideshow of pictures in the display of small images tab screen saver under "Screen saver settings", but when you click "Preview" the screen just comes in white, and if we allow for the screen saver turns on automatically it is always white.

    Yes, we have a wireless keyboard/mouse, but the screen saver picture worked very well with them before, so we don't think it's having wireless devices?  Any help out there?

    Cheers, Nuttymusher

    Hello SuzyQarama,

    Thank you for posting.  As everything worked correctly until you have changed monitors, it seems you are having compatibility problems with your new monitor and your video card.  You will need to install the drivers for your new monitor and possibly for your both video card.  This will allow the video card and monitor to work better together.  This should force the video card to not show the resolutions that the monitor cannot handle.  Once you have performed these steps, you must then select the native resolution for your new monitor section personalize.

    Please let me know if this helps you. Zack

    According to the description, I understand that you have related questions screen saver settings in Windows.

    A screen saver is a program that, including the screen or filling it with moving images or patterns when the computer is not in use.

    Screensaver programs were designed to help avoid these effects by automatically changing the images on the screen during periods of user inactivity.

    Windows uses photos that better match your monitor for locking screen slide show.

  • Office and loading photo-screen saver

    Recently, Mac Book Pro, my wife (2009) started acting incorrectly when we go to active corners or the timer expires and should load the photos.

    If I look at the screen saver preferences, we have a relatively small designated images folder. Photos of maybe 20. In preferences, we can see many lines of small images and it may be that the number of lines continues to rise. If we use Active corners or the timer expires, the screen goes black and after a minute or two, the message loading Photos appears.

    I looked at all the pictures in the folder and none are corrupt. They all will normally open in preview or Graphic Converter. I tried to change to another photo folder and get the same problem.

    I think rather than Office preferences and screen saver is damaged or it is maybe something stored in a library that is corrupted.

    I tried to restart the laptop with the SHIFT key is pressed twice and that did not help.

    This who should I try next.

    Its operating system is 10.11.4 and the Mac laptop is mid-2009.

    Suggestions on what do I do then?

    Howdy Gil Woolley,

    Thank you for using communities Support from Apple.

    I understand that you run into problems when you try to use your photos as screensaver on Mac. your wife you mentioned that you have been able to open these photos on their own with no problem, so you have tried other photos also?  If this isn't the case, I suggest that you try and make the desktop folder photos after your screen saver to see if the problem persists:

    / Library/screen saver by default/Collections

    If Yes, then the next step that I suggest is to test this behavior in a new user account:

    How to test with another user account

    You can find out if unexpected behavior is related to the user file or a parameter in trying to reproduce the problem to a different user account. This process includes creating a new user account, connect to it and test for the issue.

    Create a test user account

    1. In the Apple menu, choose System Preferences.
    2. Click the users and groups in the System Preferences window.
    3. Click the lock icon and enter an administrator name and password.
    4. Click on the button Add (+) below the list of users.
    5. Choose a type of user in the new pop-up menu.
    6. Give the user a name and first name, account name, and password.
    7. Click OK.
    8. Close the System Preferences window.

    If there are documents from your user account that you want to test with original, place a copy of these items in the shared folder in the users folder. Press the Option key while dragging a file in this folder to create a copy.

    Connect to the test user account

    Log out of your current user account by choosing logout in the Apple menu, and then open a session the new account that you created. If you are prompted to login with your iCloud or Apple ID account when you log in, skip this step.

    Try to reproduce the problem

    Try the same steps that caused the unexpected behavior to appear. For example, if you are unable to print, try printing from this user account. If you were unable to connect to the Internet, try to navigate on a website of this user account.

    How to test a question in another account on your Mac.

    Please report back with your results so that we can further this issue.

    Take care.

  • iMac OSX ElCaptain - a few photos screen saver are zoomed - taking pictures

    I have my photos on my screensaver, but many of them are zoomed.  Also have a problem with faces in iPhoto - cannot turn off and a lot of my pictures have gone to a few faces? iMac OS X EL Captain worm 10.11.3 I pictures in iPhoto and photos and it becomes very confusing.  I wish that all my photos randomly flashes on the screen - but with pictures everywhere, I am not able to do.  I'd love to consolidate and do them all in one place

    You give little information so I'm not clear on what you have or what you want

    Basically when you are migrating from iPhoto to Photos both libraries are identical (and share the original and previews using hard links) - as move you toward the front of the changes are made only in the library you use (Photos or iPhoto) and nothing that do you in one program affects the other - if you do not have two different libraries - the two are identical except for additions and deletions you did since the initial migration

    Method 2

    It is possible that some third-party programs installed on the computer is causing the problem.

    I suggest that you put the computer in a clean boot state and check.

    To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows Vista or Windows 7 by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

    When you are finished troubleshooting, follow these steps to reset the computer to start as usual:

    (a) click Start, type msconfig in the search box and press ENTER.

    (b) If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password or click on continue.

    (c) under the general tab, click the Normal startup option, and then click OK.

  • photo screen saver does not display correctly the photos

    I've been running the screen saver of pictures on my Windows XP computer for quite awhile with no problems.  Recently however photos have been displayed too high on my monitor actually cut the top of the photo.  I don't know what changed, but I would really like to know how to restore it.

    I have my system dual monitors.  Windows allows you to drag you monitors around do them work together properly.  I had to drag the main monitor to a higher position.  It corrects the problem.

  • Multiple display (cloned monitor) and THE screen is pink.

    I'll try to clone my desktop on another monitor and my normal computer screen is the right color but the other monitor is ROSE!

    I checked the connection, and it is secure, ideas please?

    Appreciated :)

    Take your monitor to another computer and borrow the monitor from that computer to put on your.  That should quickly indicate if the monitor is bad or if there is a computer problem.  If you have two monitors are trying to exchange the first to the second and vice versa.

  • Windows 7 photo screen saver not the 'options' has Vista, how to do i.e. sepia options, transition, random, sizing, etc.

    I notice that my Windows Vista Photo Screensaver has options to display photos, sepia, randomly, stretching, transition, sizing of the images etc, and Windows 7 has only a speed option.  What happened to the other options and how to really customize the screensaver?  It seems that the picture for the screen saver option has been reduced and made vary credits for display.  I have a laptop of Acer Thinline 4810 t - 4508 with Windows 7, Intel SU4100 and 4G of DDR3 memory.

    Windows Photo Gallery Slideshow Screensaver does not support themes in Windows 7. To work around the problem, you can use the "Windows Live Photo Gallery" since it incorporates a similar screensaver that supports themes.

  • Bug in 2015 using two monitors and 6 K resolution Footage update

    After the update CC PP 2015 Ive notice a bug when I pull and extend a clip in my scenario, my second film LED 27 "monitor monitor which mirrors my monitor of the program just starts blinking and does not show the images rubbing as he used to. I extend the clip it does not reflect the correct position of the clip, it sparkles so that it shows my home desktop screen on occasion. Has anyone else been done to meet this bug. Its quite frustrating. This happens only when I have a second monitor hooked up. I've updated to version 9.0.2 they come out today. and I got the version 9.0.1 installed just F.Y.I before And I always feel the same questions. I am attaching a video and photo, so you can see the problem that is happening. After having tested far this only happens with images of 6 K resolution. It does not with a resolution of 4K and below. And again once this has happened after the update 2015 The photos of the show when I make drag and extend a clip in the program Monitor flashes and does not play the preview as it should, you can also see the timecode overlay is not correctly aligned either.  Password for the video: CCPP and I use a MacPro 2013 with 64 g ram duel D700 graphics cards and I'm editing a disc SSD of Raid Thunderbolt 2.


    I talked with Adobe tech support representative and he had no solution for me. Adobe can you please offer assistance more. Everything was good in Premiere Pro 2014 so it's probably a bug in update 2015 or conflict.
