Eye Saver

Adding the dropbox-saver class to an existing anchor tag is easy if you just need to allow users to save a hardcoded URL. For more dynamic uses, though, you may prefer to create a Save button programmatically by calling Dropbox.createSaveButton.
The watch sometimes vibrates and she looks to see it in an about to enter battery saver screen with a timeout that she might get to in time to cancel it. Other times just goes to look at the watch and it's on the battery saver minimal home screen.
I tried disabling the battery saver icon/button from the "quick launch" circle of icons when you hold down the top button, no change so it's not that somehow being pressed. That wouldn't show a timeout screen anyway.
However I can't find the setting and l've tried to reproduce it on my watch by going to the "walk" activity screen, where it says "waiting for GPS", but never hitting start. It eventually times out and goes back to the normal watch screen without entering battery saver mode.
I've had this happen too. The other day I noticed that the watch was suddenly displaying a minimal face and it took me a while to work out why, and to find the menu to disable battery saving mode.
It's just happened again now. I know that I didn't have any activity tracking (walkling, cycling etc) turned on. The battery is 70% charged, so it's not being triggered when the battery gets below a threshold charge. I last looked at the watch an hour or so ago, and I haven't touched it since then, apart from to rotate my wrist just now to turn the display on and saw that the display was minimal again (dim brown hands, no other gauges such as battery, number of steps, heart rate, date).
It looks as if both I and 5710117 might be getting apparently random, un-commanded setting of battery saver mode.
My watch is the Venu2 - the one which has a face that is about 40 mm diameter.
I too wish there was a way of disabling battery-saver mode altogether. My battery lasts about 6-7 days with battery saver turned off.
Has there been any response from Garmin technical support as to why this keeps happening? Either the watch is starting an activity when the user didn't want it to, or else battery saver is being triggered by something else. Either way, something needs to be fixed.
Just got done creating all the images for 10.12.2. Our configuration profile for Login and Password holds the screen saver preference. It worked in El Capitan, yet in Sierra it is defaulting to the message screen saver. The one with the apple symbol and the computer name. When the user logs in, the ghost of the apple symbol remains for around a minute each time.
Here is the config profile. On the bottom right you can see it is pointing to the Flurry.saver, which again worked for El Capitan. The file path did not change from what I can tell for Sierra. Flurry is also still available in Sierra.
Configuration Profile with Login Window Banner set to have the "Start Screen saver After:" I have 15 Minutes added. Then the file path "/System/Library/Screen Savers/Flurry.saver" (First Screen shot on this thread)
"defaults -currentHost write com.apple.screensaver idleTime 15" (This is where those at jamf and I differed. They said to put 900 instead of 15. It is working with 15 for me (or that could be the config profile), so I am leaving it but want to make you all aware).
I am getting the actual opposite.
I wish it to show the name for i can tell which computer is which but some are still getting the flurry one from time to time.
I have edited and pushed out to all devices again, i have tried lowering the screen saver start time from 20 minutes to 10.
@cwaldrip - I did also set a "managed preferences profile" specific to "ScreenSaver by Host" I know it has one for "Login Window" too. I've tried turning off the setting in config profile for screen saver and vise versa, to see if one or the other worked. No luck.
@cwaldrip - I agree. After spending way too much time yesterday. I agree. I even tried to add in the managed preferences with login window and had no luck. Those on El Capitan are still fine. Those who used the app store to upgrade from El Capitan to Sierra are fine, yet our company image for Sierra, is not working as planned for the screen saver. I'm hoping when we upgrade the binary it magically fixes it, but I'm not holding out much hope.
@cwaldrip @peter.caldwell @mdonovan - Welp, there goes my last idea. Updated our binary to 9.97 (9.96 is compatible with sierra). I was hoping the config profile or managed preferences would magically work and do what they are supposed to. No such luck. I started looking into it more. Even those on El Capitan are getting the screen saver with the message (apple symbol and computer name), when I have it set to flurry. I figure at some point I'll contact the jamf poc and start bugging him and see what we can come up with. Oy.
Of course change the path to reflect what screen saver you want to use. Create a script file in jss. Then make a policy and add it into there. I then added a test computer to that policy. After numerous testing and a bit of working around. It seems to finally be working. I do have the "Managed Preferences" set still as well.
I think there might be a better solution for this. Although I use Profile Manager and not JAMF, it's the same principle. After reading the official documentation from Apple ( ), there are two different Payload Types for this. We wanted to force the Idle Time for the screen saver. The problem with com.apple.screensaver was that it would also activate a screen saver at the login window and sometimes it wouldn't disable after input from mouse/keyboard (at least in Sierra), so we abandoned that profile setting.
But there is another called com.apple.screensaver.user, which still is a device level type (luckily). There was our solution with the Key "idleTime". Your problem with the specific screen saver module you want to use should be solved with the Key "modulePath". Seems a more clean and stable solution than the above mentioned script.
CalSavers is a completely voluntary retirement program. Savers may opt out at any time or reduce or increase the amount of payroll contributions. If a saver opts out they can later opt back into CalSavers.
Saving through an IRA may not be appropriate for all individuals. Employer facilitation of CalSavers should not be considered an endorsement or recommendation by a participating employer, IRAs, or the investment options offered through CalSavers. IRAs are not exclusive to CalSavers and can be obtained outside of the Program and contributed to outside of payroll deduction. Contributing to a CalSavers IRA through payroll deduction may offer some tax benefits and consequences. However, not everyone is eligible to contribute to a Roth IRA and savers should consult a tax or financial advisor if they have questions related to taxes or investments. Employers do not provide financial advice and employees should not contact an employer for financial advice. Employers should refer all questions about the Program to CalSavers. Employers are not liable for decisions employees make pursuant to Section 100034 of the California Government Code.
The screen saver automatically starts whenever your Mac sits idle for the amount of time you choose. To change how long your Mac can be inactive before the screen saver starts, choose Apple menu > System Settings, then click Lock Screen in the sidebar. (You may need to scroll down.) See Change Lock Screen settings.
I have just discovered that Safe Kids on Xiaomi phones is useless. On my daughter's Redmi Note 7 there is "Ultra battery saver" ( UBS from now on ) in shortcut buttons on top. If Safe Kids is activated/running and even if the phone is blocked by time limit,simply activating UBS and then disactivating it, Safe kids is no longer running and the app is useless. You have to restart the app and then reenable accessibility to make the app functional again.I tried every possible way to block this,but unfortunately no success. Off course,my daughter stayed quiet about this and was using the phone with app disabled for a few months until I realised what is happening.
Yes,the screen in screenshot is on Ultra battery saver. I tried also adding Kaspersky safe kids to the list. The problem is that from normal phone mode with safe kids active if you activate the saver:
If this also does not work, I think this is probably a technical limitation. The super power saving mode ( Ultra battery saver ) will kill all non-essential apps to maintain the phone's standby needs. But when recovering from this mode, the app process that was killed before will not be automatically restored, so this problem occurs.
Apps running in the background are blocked. Users can allow specific individual apps to run while in battery saver mode. Certain categories of apps continue to run. For example, VOIP apps are not blocked.
WNS is blocked by default on Windows 10 Mobile. Users can chose individual apps to always be allowed to run while battery saver is on. There is no setting to allow WNS across all apps. This is the same behavior as Windows Phone 8.1.
