Can you run (G550) laptop with screen closed?

I'm thinking of using my laptop as my main machine connected ot my monitor and use input devices. However, when I tried, closing the screen automatically hibernates the laptop. Is it possible to run the laptop with the screen closed?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

you can do it on every laptop
cause there is a power option on windows operating system that you can set it to the prefrences that you like
for instance not to shut down or hybernate when you close the lid

Can you replace a laptop with the ipad2? Several related questions.

Hi
I want to buy an ipad2 to replace my laptop (I pretty much only use it for email, reading website, online gaming, Facebook etc, and don't really feel the need to have one for anything else. Rarely write documents etc.)
Questions:
Can I use the itunes on the ipad to update and sync my iphone instead of with the laptop or do I still need some kind of pc to maintain this?
Are banking websites compatible with the ipad? I know apple doesn't support flash so am a little concerned about some webistes not working on the ipad. Wondering what kind of problems other might have had with this kind of thing.
Does the ipad work with Microsoft documents and spreadsheets (the few that I do use I would like to be able to do on there?
Are there any other areas that I might have trouble with?
Thanks in advance

1) ios5 devices no longer need to be synced with a computer, though they can be. You can't sync your iphone to your iPad, but you can treat each independently.
2) I've never had a problem with my bank's site. Adobe themselves have abandoned Flash for mobile devices, so in time this issue will become less and less significant. In fact even now it's rarely an issue.
3) MS office doesn't run on iPad, but Apples iworks suite does. You can open MS office files and even export them back into MS Office formats. In truth it's so simple and straightforward that you quickly forget that they're entirely separate formats. There is also the option of 3rd party Apps, Freeware, that can handle MS Office files.
4) I found the key is not to expect the iPad to be a laptop with a few differences. It's an entirely separate product needing entirely different inputs. If your use is as you describe, mostly web-based, email etc, then iPad suits perfectly. Where it doesn't suit so well is where lots of keyboard input is required. Good though the ios software keyboards are, they are not the same thing as a physical keyboard. Fedback is entirely different etc. For that reason, iPad would not be ideally suited if there is lots of that type of input required.
Go for it. I'm sure you'll love it.
Good luck

Can you run Action Scripts with Adobe Photoshop Elements 8?

I have Photoshop Elements 5 and i cant find the 'Action' tab. Im considering buying Elements 8 but ONLY if i know for sure if i can use action scripts with it.
Message was edited by: Jochem van Dieten

Elements does not include Photoshop's Actions Palette function. You can get an add on for elements that will is able to Play some Photoshop Actions in Elements. Not all Photoshop Actions actions can be played for some action use Photoshop features that are not in Elements like Photoshop Scripting. http://help.adobe.com/en_US/PhotoshopElements/8.0/Win/Using/WS961FF412-5006-4364-B315-1576 62B1F7E9.html

How can you run a command with elevated rights on a remote server with invoke-command ?

I am trying to run a script on a remote server with invoke-command. The script is starting and is running fine, but the problem is that it should be running with elevated rights on the remote server. On the server where I start the invoke-command, my account has the necessary rights.
The server were I launch the invoke-command is a W2K8 R2. The remote box is a W2K3 with powershell v2.0 installed.
When I launch the script on the remote-box from the command line, I don't get the access denied's.
Is there a way to do this ?
Thanks in advance

The script that I want to run is to install the windows updates. I get an access denied on the download of the updates.
When I execute the script on an W2K8 box, (not remotely) and I run it with non-elevated rights, I get the same error.
The script is running fine when it is launched on W2K3 box locally with a domain account that has local admin rights, or on a W2K8 R2 server with a domain account that has local admin rights, but with elevated rights.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Can you run airplay mirroring WITH airplay to other speakers (airports?)

I'd love to have the iTunes visualizer running on our AppleTV enabled flatscreen while running our usual output of music to several sets of remote speakers. When I select Apple TV in the Airplay taskbar it disconnects any speakers running and vice versa.

Yes, you need Mountain Lion.

Can I run 2 monitor with one of the monitor having Full Screen for Elgato Eye TV?

My mac mini has Elgato 'Eye TV' software that runs in 'Full Screen'. I want to keep this setting & also connect another monitor to the macmini & use other Appilications on the other monitor? Can I run 2 monitor with one of the monitor having Full Screen for Elgato Eye TV?
My early 2009 macmini can run Mac OS 10.5, 10.6, 10.7 & 10.8

Yes, run one from HDMI and the other from Thunderbolt/minidisplayport sockets. In EyeTV Preferences check the screen you want for full screen use and make sure your Dock is on the other one.

Running MBP 15 with lid closed and external screen = damaging screen?

I connected an external screen to my laptop with the lid closed and woke it up through my external keyboard. I am vaguely remembering reports stating that heat is vented through the keyboard as well as through the vents in the back.
Does that mean that running the laptop with the lid closed is damaging the machine or specifically the screen?

No, it's fine.

Can you run indesign cs4 on a laptop without internet connection

I believe that Indesign CS4 checks over the internet before opening. If that is the case can you run it on a laptop without an internet connection?
Thanks

From an earlier post by Nicolas Mertens:
"here's what I got from Customer Services about this problem:
[Help] files are located in the following location:
C:/Program Files/Common Files/Adobe/Help/en_us/InDesign/6.0. Also
from that location, you can launch the file 'index.html' and this
should direct you to *the online help that you would access through
the program itself.*"
I found that the files are not at that location, but at C:/Program
Files/Common Files/Adobe/Help/en_GB/InDesign/6.0 (this is in Windows
Vista, by the way). "
Yours would presumably be at [the German equivalent of
..]/de-DE/InDesign6.0, or whatever your locale is (AT, CH...)

How can I run applications in full screen on my MacBook Pro?

I recently started using an external HP w1858 monitor as a secondary display with my MacBook Pro. I'm having troubles with running applications in full screen mode on the secondary display. How can I run applications in full screen mode on the secondary monitor?

If you always have the external display connected, you can configure the OS to consider it as the default or main display. Once everything is connected and set to your liking (resolution, color depth, etc.), "bless" the external display by clicking & dragging the menubar from the Mac's internal display onto the external. This only works if you are not using video mirroring.
Once this is done, applications will open by default on the external and now "main" display and you can configure them to go fullscreen or whatever.

I am running a laptop with windows 7 on it and trying to use the save as feature in Photoshop CS6 and won't let me save as anything. Please help?

I am running a laptop with windows 7 and am trying to use the save as feature in Photoshop CS6 and it wont let me save as anything. Can someone please help me with this?

A screenshot of your Photoshop work area showing the open file you want to save as, the Layers panel open, and the Save as... dialog open might give us a clue as to what is going on.
To take a screenshot and save it as a file
For Windows 7, Printscreen, open a New File in Photoshop, Ctrl v to paste, then save as jpeg (the other trick was for windows 8)
Use the Camera icon on your reply to upload it.
Also File > Save for Web is a good workaround if you just need a jpeg, png, or gif.

Can you run Adobe Photoshop CS version 8 on Yosemite?

Can you run Adobe Photoshop CS version 8 on Yosemite?

Well if you want permanent license Adobe software, here is the price list for the CS6 catalog . Creative Suite 6
Just know that with the exception of Adobe Camera Raw updates, CS6 will have maintenance updates, but not the features of CC 2014.
The rental model called Creative Cloud means you will have the software installed on your Mac and you can work with your files as before, it's just that activation depends on a $50 monthly fee. Upgrades are piped in at no further cost, and you have the freedom to switch platforms and interface languages. You activate on up to two computers, PC, Mac or mixed. 20 GB online storage for collaboration, and you can also store and sync your settings and custom presets. Typekit if you'd like to try new and difference fonts.
Look at it this way, it's not a big deal if you are in business. You rent many things and this is probably not your largest monthly expense.
