IPad doesn't go into sleep mode when guided access is enabled

My iPad doesn't go into sleep mode when guided access is enabled despite having set "enable sleep mode" to on in the settings menu. COnsequently, my battery life drains very quickly during the day as the screen doesn't dim or go into sleep mode at all. Help!

Seems this feature is lost with iOS 7.0.4. I just bought 4 iPod Touches for employee use and NEED to have sleep mode enabled for guided access to conserve battery life.
I did have 1 iPod that allowed me to enable sleep mode (and I tested that it allowed the top button to be pressed to immediately go to sleep), then after it ran the 7.0.4 upgrade it no longer allowed sleep mode when in guided access (I did not check the original version of iOS on the iPod but it was obviously older than 7.0.4).
Is there some new hidden way to turn this on or did Apple delete the option?

IPad doesn't go into sleep mode

I have an iPad 2 3G, and it doesn't go into sleep mode when I'm pressing Power button, also it doesn't work through the AssistiveTouch.
I would appreciate any help. Thanks from Sweden:)

Hello Quentin,
It might be worth attempting a restart of the iPad, and then a reset, should restarting fail to resolve the issue.

IOS 4 on 3G - Phone doesn't go into sleep mode when on a call

I have a 3G iphone with the 4.0 OS. Whenever I get or make a phone call the screen does not go black therefore causing me to hit mute buttons and what not. I didn't have this problem on my 2g phone. I've tried to research it and look it up in the settings and I come up with nothing. How can I get this problem fixed ?

ITouch doesn't go into sleep mode

I have noticed recently that my iTouch doesn't go into sleep mode. Usually the screen will go dark after a couple of minutes if it is not being used. This isn't the case. When I plug it in to charge, it doesn't go into sleep mode either. I have tried to reset with the top and home button and that hasn't worked. Does anyone have any ideas what else I can try?

Hey SFJenn,
Make sure Auto-Lock is set in Settings> General> Auto-Lock.
If it is but you still see the issue, try resetting and/or restoring the iPhone.

Remove "Boom" and test.
Any third-party software that doesn't install by drag-and-drop into the Applications folder, and uninstall by drag-and-drop to the Trash, is a system modification.
Whenever you remove system modifications, they must be removed completely, and the only way to do that is to use the uninstallation tool, if any, provided by the developers, or to follow their instructions. If the software has been incompletely removed, you may have to re-download or even reinstall it in order to finish the job.
I never install system modifications myself, and except as stated in this comment, I don't know how to uninstall them. You'll have to do your own research to find that information.
Here are some general guidelines to get you started. Suppose you want to remove something called “BrickMyMac” (a hypothetical example.) First, consult the product's Help menu, if there is one, for instructions. Finding none there, look on the developer's website, say www.brickmymac.com. (That may not be the actual name of the site; if necessary, search the Web for the product name.) If you don’t find anything on the website or in your search, contact the developer. While you're waiting for a response, download BrickMyMac.dmg and open it. There may be an application in there such as “Uninstall BrickMyMac.” If not, open “BrickMyMac.pkg” and look for an Uninstall button. The uninstaller might also be accessed by clicking the Customize button, if there is one.
Back up all data before making any changes.
You will generally have to restart the computer in order to complete an uninstallation. Until you do that, there may be no effect, or unpredictable effects.
If you can’t remove software in any other way, you’ll have to erase and install OS X. Never install any third-party software unless you're sure you know how to uninstall it; otherwise you may create problems that are very hard to solve.
Trying to remove complex system modifications by hunting for files by name often will not work and may make the problem worse. The same goes for "utilities" such as "AppCleaner" and the like that purport to remove software.

Mac mini didn't go into sleep mode when i am conect my thunderbolt display whit an optical thunderbolt cable

Hello josfromkerkade. Please contact me so that I can get more details.
We'd like to understand which monitor you're using, how old it is, which Thunderbolt port you're using (tethered cable or TB port), & the version of firmware.

HT201401 My phone won't lock or go into sleep mode when answering calls

My phone won't lock or go into sleep mode when making or receiving calls. Consequently I keep activating the mute or loud speaker buttons with my cheek. Can anyone help please??

That is a Proximity Sensor Problem, which is located above the earpiece speaker. Do you have a new screen protector or iPhone Case which could interfer with this?
Reset iPhone, Restore iPhone.
If you have Warranty or AppleCare Coverage make Genius Reservation and take iPhone to Apple for resolution.

I am running OSX Lion 10.7.4 and the computer no longer will go into sleep mode when I close the cover What happened with this option?

I am running OSX Lion 10.78.4 and the computer will no longer go into sleep mode when I close the cover. In system preferences I can no longer find the option that allows for this energy saving feature. What happened to this option and why is this no longer happening with the latest version of Lion?

No external monitors or devices attached. When you mention that this function only works when devices are attached that is true when you set up your preferences that way. Up until my upgrade to Lion the computer would always go into sleep mode when I closed the lid. There also used to be an option to check in system preferences that allowed you to choose this option. My question for the discussion is what happened to that option and how do you get the computer to sleep or at least the display to sleep when you close the lid as we have been able to do in the past. Thanks.

How do I get My IPHone 5c to go into sleep mode when not using

How do I set my IPhone 5c to go into sleep mode when not using

Are you saying the screen never turns off? That is controlled with auto lock in general settings.
IF your screen turns off, your phone is going to reduced power state, but still looking for events. This is standby, and you see published standby times for the different iPhones.
There is no other setting between this and turning off. So slightly different than a PC.

MacBook Pro doesn't go into sleep mode after connecting Thunderbolt display

Hi,
after connecting a Thunderbolt display to the 2011 MacBook Pro 13", the system doesn't stay in sleep mode.
When pressing cmd.alt.eject it goes into sleep for 1 or 2 seconds and then goes back on.
everything works fine otherwise and the MacBook goes to sleep without problems if the Thunderbolt display is not attached.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance,
Jordi

I found the problem.
It turns out that it has nothing to do with the Thunderbolt Display, but with Bluetooth and the Magic Trackpad.
When I installed the TD, I also added a wireless keyboard and Magic Trackpad that I had been using with another system.
If the option to allow the system to wake up by Bluetooth devices is enabled (system preferences, Bluetooth, advanced), the MacBook Pro will go to sleep and immediately wake up.
Simply disabled that option and everything works fine.
Now I need to open the lid of the MBP to wake up the system. Kind of a huge power button :-)
Thanks for your help!
Jordi

My macbook goes into 'sleep' mode when my mobile runs over the bottom left corner, next to the trackpad, does anyone else have this problem?

Not sure if anyone else has this problem. I only noticed it a few weeks ago when I left my mobile on the keyboard, towards the left of the trackpad. When I started typing I accidentally nudged my phone off the board and then everything went black. I hit any button and everything turned back on again. I'll assume that it went into 'sleep' mode. Is this normal or should I be worried about the health of my mac?

I am facing pretty much the same problem ... although sometimes the click does work on other parts of the trackpad, but largely I have to stay focused on the left bottom corner. It's getting slightly frustrating esp. because I like the click better than the "tap" and my MAC is only a month old!!
Is this a software issue or a h/w problem?

X200 on XP Doesn't Go Into Sleep Mode

The problem is stated above in the title, however this only happens on one condition. It only won't go into sleep mode/standby mode if there's a USB device attached before closing the lid (eg. USB thumb drive). I've tested and tested different scenerios but it's always leads back to the USB key being the problem. Basically you'll close the lid and nothing happens except for the "Preparing to stand by..." screen comes up and you have to turn it off manually.
Wonder if anyone else has experienced this before? And if there's solution please do tell. So far the only solution I can think of is detatching all devices before closing it but that's kind of a hassel.

I haven't.
Have you tried manually disabling the USB device from the USB device icon in the taskbar icon before going to sleep? Perhaps when starting with the USB device coupled, it will enable again.

IPad won't go into Sleep mode

After using an App made specifically for the iPad and then try to turn off/put my iPad to sleep, it does not react at all. If I then start an App which was designed for the iPhone, then pressing the button on the top of the iPad leads directly to the iPad switching to sleep mode.
This does not happen with all iPad apps. Any ideas? I've tried it with several different iPad apps and it happens with some of them. All iPhone apps have no negative effects on the iPad sleep mode, which tells me that there has to be a problem with some of the iPad apps.
thanks for the help.

Try a cold reboot. Same as turning off the iPad except keep holding down both buttons (side on/off and top screen Home button) until you see the Apple logo (it will go through the "Slide to power off" thing first- keep holding down). It should reboot automatically when you let go after the logo appears. This can take some time so be patient.
