OS X :: Screen Shot Below Was Taken While Waiting For The Application To Start?
Oct 7, 2009
This morning I woke up to finding my MBP shut off... I must've pulled the powercord in my sleep. No problem there, I needed to calibrate my battery anyway. What I want to know is what would cause transmission to use most of my processing power, just on start up? this screen shot below was taken while waiting for the application to start. Transmission is up and running now, but why would it take 15-20 mins to do so?
I know this is a long shot but does anyone know of a script (or fancy trying to write one!) that will change a desktop pattern when you launch a particular app.
Basically I'd like to have a couple of desktop patterns with all the shortcut keys for particular apps but don't want them up all the time, only when I'm using that app.
Ideally, quitting the app would return to the normal desktop pattern.
shutting down. It looks as though it is shutting down normally and then the screen darkens from top to bottom with an error message. I can't get a screen shot of the message but all it says is that there has been an error. It happens seemingly at random occasions but then when I subsequently log back on there is an message saying that MACOSX has an error
I am working completely in Windows 7 with an extended MAC USB keyboard in Excel, and am trying to take a screen shot no luck. I am used to the "Print Screen" button on a PC keyboard. I don't want to download any new software.
Being the dork I am I want to make an awesome Avatar background that spans my dual 27inch monitors. The problem is is no matter what video player I use (quicktime, iTunes, VLC) when I screen shot the movie the area is blank! All I want to do is make a wallpaper
Every question I see about changing the screenshot format here seems overly complicated, or requires installing another app.
I'm pretty sure screenshots used to always be png, but I just noticed that they are now jpeg. I do a lot of graphics work and want to capture as png.
Here there are instructions for code in Terminal. Is that really necessary? Shouldn't it just be a preference somewhere? (I will always use cmd+shift+4 to take the screenshots)
Here's a screen shot of my applications folder, Can anyone explain or help me with this?I find this strange that it appears that I have two versions of Logic installed on my computer, Is there anyway I can "merge" or "trash" one without losing any data?
Just upgraded to a 27" iMac and of couse the screen fonts are now smaller as a result of the higher screen resolution.
Has anyone come up with a program that "resizes and resets" the screen fonts for most programs that work under OSX, so you don't have to go into ZOOM every time you run a program in order to see type on the screen? Even Windozes allows this!
My computer won't turn on. Earlier today while playin music it just paused itself. I minute later it resumed. Then tonight it just shut off instead of sleeping and now it won't start. All I can get if I'm lucky is the start up chime and a super quick flash of a white screen.
How do you make an application automatically load upon logon? I would like ByteController (the iTunes controller that loads in the menu bar) to automatically start when I login.
I have this program installed called KeyAccess (or KeyServer). It is used by my college to allow me access to the licenses to a slew of software provided by the school. However, it loads at startup, and I have no idea how to prevent it from doing so. There's no option to configure it not to, I have tried looking for an entry in StartupItems and Login Items of my Accounts preferences. It is located in the Preferences Pane, its not really a standalone program.
I installed the virtual microscope application "Virtual microscope 6.2.2" as system administrator and all works fine.As soon as I switched to my daughters account (standart-user) the application did not start. All I know is that the application needs java but I see no hint for additional requirements or permissions and also no error messages.I'm using OS-Lion, version 10.7.3?
Macbook Pro can't start up beyond the grey start up screen. There's a spinning wheel and bar that moves to 1/4 before Macbook Pro shuts down automatically.
I just bought a new macbook pro a little over a month ago and have since upgraded to Snow Leopard (fresh install). One day about a week ago, out of no where, the mail application seemed to launch itself whenever I opened my laptop (resume from hibernate?). It is asking me for my name and email address to start setting it up. From there, I press cancel and the window disappears but the icon stays on the dock like its open and when I go to the Force Quit window it shows Mail as not responding and I have to force quit it. This doesnt happen every time but happens pretty often for seemingly no reason.
This is the image I get on my iMac 2.4 GHz Intel Core Duo OSX10.5.4. I have repaired permisions and removed all login items. Once I move the cursor or open up a window the screen clears behind the cursor or window etc... It freezes up at least once or twice a day...
I started up again and attached another screen, the image was normal on both screens. But alone the iMac still starts up with the pixelated screen.

Im at a point where more drives is not the answer.5+TB is plenty (i need disk archives).I quietly waited for WWDC 2008 Thinking Blu-Ray BANG NOT A WORD.Has ppl had any luck with aftermarket blue ray burnz if so which?
This issue has been bought up b4 but i hoped "WWDC 2008" (wrong)would have changed that so back to the same BS of buying drives
I can't really afford the Mac Pro right now and I'd have to upgrade it anyway. I can get a G5 with upgraded Ram Dual 2.5 and applecare for around �1000. I figure if I have problems with the G5 Apple might end up replacing it with a Mac Pro in the future anyway. Will Leopard work on a G5? How long do you think companies will keep making G5 compatible programs for?
I'm trying to access one of my ice hockey sites but firefox and safari fail to connect. The site is [URL] Firefox stalls waiting for [URL] I can get to [URL]. Can other MAC users access the site? I did have a trial of little snitch, but removed it with the uninstall, no problems with any other sites.
