Re: Problem with Log in Window, can you try and help?

2012-09-07 Thread Nicolai Svendsen
Hi,

I've covered this is another topic.

Basically, what happens is that the screensaver appears. When that happens, 
tapping a key doesn't automatically bring focus to the window. So, you can hit 
VO-F1-F1 to bring up the Application CHooser. Go to the Login window menu, 
then hit enter on it and select the only window available there.

You have to use the application chooser because it's essentially a different 
application that manages the Login window.

Regards,
Nicolai

 Hello all.
 Can you please try and help with the following.
 Last night I let both my mac and iPhone charge. So I logged out of my user 
 account and all was fine and I left it for a few hours. But when I came back 
 to it, VoiceOver said, displaying 1 system dialogue, and I therefore could 
 not do anything with the log in Window, because all VoiceOver said was, 
 Authentication has no windows! Lol! So guess what? I had to literally hard 
 reset the mac! Lol!
 This has happened a few times actually when I left my mac at the log in 
 window for some time, but decided to write in only now as it happened again 
 last night.
 So if I do this, will I damage my mac over time?
 Gary Price here said that if you put the mac to sleep while charging an iOS 
 device, it still charges, providing you are still logged in. If this is the 
 case, should I do this instead?
 This is on a Macbook Pro 13 inch late 2011 model running Mountain Lion.
 Any help would be greatly appreciated.
 Please respond as soon as possible. Thanks!
 Take care.
