Any Way To Turn Sleep Mode Off?

Is there a way to prevent the iBook from going to sleep when the lid is closed? This can be done in WinXP but not sure about a Mac. I'd like to play a DVD on the iBook and pipe the image through my TV. I would also like to be able to close the lid of the iBook and have the DVD keep playing. Right now if I close the lid the iBook obviously goes to sleep and thus the DVD stops playing. Thanks!

i was told on here that there is a way, but it would possibly void the warrenty and may overheat the laptop...
honestly though, i rather close my laptop and be able to play music/download things then keep the lip open and risk damaging the monitor...
i'm going to call apple tomorrow and see what could be done about this

I have my TC in my Bedroom, So the light can be bright. Is there any way to turn the light off?

I have my TC in my Bedroom, So the light can be bright. Is there any way to turn the light off?

The light cannot be turned off, but if you stop by at the office supply store and get a sheet of small 1/2" white routnd labels, you can place a few over the light to dim it significantly. Add more labels as needed to adjust for the brightness level you want to achieve.
Of course, you could use a piece of tape, but the white labels look much nicer and won't be noticeable once you get 4-5 feet away from the device.

Lately while doing a 'save image as', it tries to 2nd guess me. I HATE that! Any way to turn this feature off?

Doing the 'save image as' option, it will go back to the previous folder and keep going there for about 5 times before it save the image to the folder I want. Then when I change folders again, it will go back to the previous folder for about 5 more times. Is there any way to turn this feature off? I do not like it at all.

Current Firefox versions remember the download directory based upon the URL, so if the URL changes then the default folder may be chosen if there hasn't been selected a download folder before for that server.

Firefox 11 will have a workaround by providing a pref ( browser.download.lastDir.savePerSite) to disable this feature.

Is there any way to turn an iPhone off without pushing the power button (it's broken)?

Power button on my 4s is broken. Is there any way to power the phone off besides the power button / slider shut down combination?

Assistive Touch, tap Settings App > General > Accessibiltiy > Assistive Touch > ON > tap new white screen button > Device > Lock Screen. If you touch and hold Lock Screen you will get the "slide to power off". This will turn OFF iphone. To turn iPhone ON, connect with USB cable to power, charger or USB of computer.

Any way to turn Alias Badge off in Yosemite?

Previous to Yosemite (version number 10.10), there was a way, through the Terminal, to turn the alias badge off. Prior to Yosemite the steps for turning of the alias badge were:
$ cd /System/Library/CoreServices/CoreTypes.bundle/Contents/Resources
$ sudo mv AliasBadgeIcon.icns AliasBadgeIcon_OFF.icns
In Yosemite, when entering the same commands, I receive the following: mv AliasBadgeIcon.icns: No such file or directory. Has anyone discovered a way to turn the alias badge off in Yosemite?
Thank you for your assistance.

Firebox Owners: Any way to turn this thing off?

Is there any better way than unplugging both the firewire cable and/or power chord. . . seems absolutely insane given that this thing is $400 and obviously has no energy save setting - it stays hot all of the time unless it's unplugged.
I am totally confused as to how this is a missing item. EIther they're stupid or I am a total bonehead for not figuring out a better way to shut it off. . . of course, it can be powered through the FW cable, so just unplugging the power supply thing is inadequate. . .

I notice it too. its blue when it is working . red when its not and never turns off. and it is hot!!
glad im not alone here..... im keeping it hot
how long is the guarantee with this one

Sometimes when I roll the cursor across a bookmark, my browser jumps to that web page without me clicking on it. Is there any way to turn this function off?

On occasion I will roll my cursor across a bookmark and my browser will take me to that web page without me clicking on it. I've been unable to detect a pattern; it seems to happen randomly. Can someone explain why this is happening? Am I doing something wrong? Is there a setting I can change to prevent this from happening? And if so, can I be given instructions how to do that?

this should not be happening, maybe one of your addons is interfering?! - can you try running firefox in safemode or with all extensions disabled for a while and see if this behaviour is still there...

Is there any way to turn this off? Very annoying feature

You could try a reboot: Press and hold BOTH the power and home buttons at the SAME time for at least 10 seconds (ignore the red slider to shut down) until the Apple Logo appears, then let go of both buttons and your iPad should restart. If that doesn't get rid of the volume control box on your screen, it's time to make an appointment with the Genius Bar at your Apple Store, and they can send your iPad off for service.

Say I turn off my Computer or restart it & then I load up Firefox the pages I was previously at loads up. This is very very very annoying & I see no options in the settings to turn this off.

Hello David.
Go into ''Tools > Options > General > Startup:When Firefox starts:'' and configure it as you want (probably to show your home page?). This is the very first option that appears in the options screen, but I understand that it may not be very easy to find. Firefox 4 will not include any redesign to the options screen (except possibly it appearing in a tab, rather than in a popup), but you may interested to know that there are plans to redesign the options screen for versions after Firefox 4, to make it easier to use. If you want to know more about the redesign, just ask.
Anyway, if that doesn't help (it probably does, but just in case), it's possible that you are having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not caused by one (or more than one) of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] (don't forget to select ''Disable all add-ons'' when you start safe mode). If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and theme and [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+plugins this one] for plugins.
If you need support for one of your add-ons, you'll have to contact its author.

Is there any way to turn off keypad sounds when making a phone call?

I am a new user to iphone....is there any way to turn off sounds of keypad when making a manual phone call of someone not in address book?
Thanks

If I understand the question correctly, it is not about turning off keyboard clicks, it's about silencing the beeps made when manually keying in a phone number. With keyboard clicks turned off, the beeps still sound when keying in a phone number. If I'm reading the iPhone User Guide correctly, it explains how to turn off keyboard clicks but not how to silence the beeps when keying in a phone number. The only way I have found to silence the beeps is to put the phone into silent mode.

LWAP AP1131 Is there any way to turn off the Round BLUE LED

Can not see an option on the controller.

Hi tdennehy
Well, first of all thanks a lot for your replay. We have perfect LOS with certainly more than 60% of the Fresnel zone being clear. The Yagi antennas are pointed at each other with no doubt, we actually got while in the "install root" and "install non-root" bridge mode the I and R LEDs on and stable, and S blinking. At times we got all the LEDs blinked fast but I guess we were passing through some strong signal concentrations. Heh, the client sugested to install the Yagi antennas as the omni but I just ingnored him, what else could I say hehe.
When we were installing all the equipment I had a play with different channels and it seemd like CH 1 worked best. The antennas use the cable they come with because the BR-1310 bridges we have installed right beneath the antennas, only the coaxials cables go down to the office to the power injectors.
Please see the attached screenshot from the signal and SNR reading. It seems like we have a little bit of noise. The signal was -61dB to -63dB on the installation day but 2 weeks later it went down to about -65dB.
So, you suggest we rotate both Yagi antennas by 90 degrees correct? I guess one needs to be turned clockwise and another anticlockwise correct? What de we actually gain by doing that? We change the polarization from vertical to horizontal? Could you please explain it to me a little bit more?
Thanks in advance for sharing your experience. I am going to troubleshoot this on Monday so I would be great if you could give me some sugesstions. I thought of changing the Yagi antennas to 19dB direccional flat pannel of 3rd party but with this distance 13,5dB yagi I think are sufficient. Does the "distance" settings on root bridge have impact on the signal sterngth?
One more question, at the moment the 2 connected offices are in the same subnet so to speak in the same broadcast domain. On one site (non-root bridge) they have up to 150 client connections to the servers on the other site (root bridge) but with 20kbps per station making it roughly 3Mbps total bandwidth needed. When they connect all at the same time, our client say the wireless link go. I really don't believe that becasue on the wireless readings we get betwenn 18 and 24Mbps so it should be way more than enough. Do you think by putting both sites in different VLANs would help a little bit so the local traffic would not need to be broadcasted over the wireless link back and forward? Can you shed on that a little bit of your experience? I suspect they have something to do with the switching on local site because when I was pinging the non-root bridge from the local site but connected to a different switch then is connected the Cisco bridge, I got funny reposnses, between 5 and 40ms over ethernet with 10 connections to the remote site over the wireless link but when we pingged the same CIsco bridge from the local site but connecte to the same switch as the Cisco bridge the responses were 1ms. It makes me think that they have some broadcast storming on the local site and that also propagates the wireless link...

When sharing screen from work with my home computer, is there any way to turn off the display at home?

Hi, sorry if this is a silly question, but when I'm viewing my desktop on the home computer from work (as in I've connected by finding my computer in the finder and hit the "Share Screen" button - is there any way to turn off the display at home? It seems a bit of a waste of power to have the screen on when I'm not actually there - I just need to be able to see all my programs etc on the remote screen in order to use them. My home computer is a 2011 iMac running latest Mountain Lion, work is a 2010 MacBook Pro.
Thanks in advance!
Matt

I've set up another user on my home Mac and left that one logged in. Now when I connect from work it asks me if I want to share the screen or log on virtually as my user. I think choosing the second option doesn't power up the screen.

Is there any way to turn off the auto formatting in Pages? I just want to type a letter and add pictures and titles, and Pages keeps changing font sizes and doesn't let me "Do it my way". I HATE this!

Is there any way to turn off the auto formatting in Pages? I'm using a blank document, so I figured I could write my letter and add pictures any way I wanted to. But NO! Pages keeps changing the font size! I typed a large heading as a title, and when I try to change to a smaller font for the body of the letter, it changes the size back to the larger size! I am getting SO FRUSTRATED! I've spent over an hour trying to get the stupid program to let me just type my letter! Can anyone help?

The only one left is the "unsubmitted text" dialogue, which would not be a problem if I were not a Facebook user; after updating the "Richard is..." field (which does not require a manual submit to actually send) I get the above message. This is obviously Safari just not realising that the info has been sent and is therefore (I imagine) one for Apple themselves to answer!!
You're welcome Rich. Glad to help.
Not being a Facebook User, I'm not sure how to respond to the error situation. However, this would be something to report to Apple as a bug via the Safari Menu. First, open to the page in question, then select "Report Bugs to Apple".
