Closing the iBook when using S Video

I was told, at the apple store, that if I bought an iBook and the Video Adapter, I could hook my ibook up to my high def tv. I recieved my adapter and computer yesterday and hooked it up to my 51 inch TV. I was pleased that I was able to get a pretty good picture after setting the preferences.
The issue Im having is that I cannot close my iBook without it going to sleep. The whole point of getting this was that I could get a bluetooth mouse and keyboard and browse from my couch.
Is there a way to set the mac to be able to continue to run while closed so that when I am hooked up to a monitor the screen does not have to run and wear down my battery? Please help.

If you know someone with another 65W power adapter I would try using it to see if it does the same thing. If it doesn't then you know to buy a new power adapter.

    how can i detach the video from a clip so i can only use the audio when using imovie?

    First, go to iMovie/Preferences and enable the Advanced Tools.
    Import the video clip into an iMovie Event. When you get ready to use it in an iMovie Project, select the clip in the Event and drag & drop it on top of a video or photo clip in the project at the place where you want it to begin. When the pop-up menu appears, choose Audio Only.

    What are the limitations regarding use of video in an iBook: length, file size, etc?

    Total book size is 2.0GB max. Length would be relative to size based on quality.

  • 2012 macbook pro retina display artifacts on screen when using onboard video

    2012 Macbook Pro Retina Display artifacts on screen when using onboard video.
    About a month ago I've noticed these strange artifacts (blocky pixelated looking) running vertically down the screen. It first started when using Safari. Then it started to happen all the time. I turned off the auto switch video in preferences, which I'm assuming forces the computer to use the separate video card and the artifacts go away.
    On top of that issue I also have had the ghosting issue.
    Anyone else have this problem?

    artifacts onscreen could mean a faulty gpu. You said by forcing it on inbuilt gpu you do not find this issue highlights that. Do take it in to apple for service and also tell them of your ghosting issue.
    There are a few retina owners who have faulty gpus.

  • OK. I have a copyright question. Do I have to put a copyright symbol on each of my photos to protect them from being stolen ? I'm referring to photos of paintings  here. What is to stop readers of the iBook from using the photos?

    Ok, I have a question concerning copright. Do I have to put a copyright symbol on every image I use- I'm refering to photos of paintings here. What is to stop readers of the ibook from using my images? They are all my own photos.

    You do not HAVE to put a © symbol on each photo. If you own the photos, you hold the copyright. However, nothing stops a viewer from downloading the photo and using it without your permission.
    To protect yourself there are alternatives: put a ©2013 by ME in the description of each photo. Always add your copyright notice to the metadata in every photo.
    I once had several of my photos taken off the internet and then used in a commercial catalog without my permission. I was outraged, the catalog company was naive, and in the end I received $100 compensation and an apology. - Fabini

  • How can I force mount a dvd that isn't even seen by Disk Utility? I can see it on the Mac when using my Windows 7 partition via Boot Camp, but not in Lion, which is how I would rather be running.

    Well if there is a EFI block, then running a program in OS X isn't going to do a lick of good.
    After all EFI was designed for Trusted Computing and Digital Rights Management, to act between the OS and hardware, can read drives, contact the Internet and everything.
    Windows doesn't use EFI, will have UEFI in Windows 8 though.

  • Color Settings: Getting colors in PS CC to match colors of the image when used as a Windows Background

    or vice versa. I probably do not know enough to be able to ask the question properly.
    The colors of photos in PS CC are not the same when used as a desktop background in Windows 7. The colors are somewhat more saturated when as a background on the desktop and while not totally unusable, it would be nice to have matching color between my PS editing screen and the photo as viewed as a desktop background.
    The following are some conditions that may or may not be relevant to the answer of my following question.
    1.) I am a complete novice to Color Management so a presumption of knowledge and the heavy use of jargon may not penetrate my head.
    2.) I shoot with sRGB embedded in my photos.
    3.) My RAW conversions use sRGB IEC61966 - 2.1.
    4.) My PS Color Settings are North American General Purpose 2 with sRGB IEC61966 - 2.1 as the working space and Intent as Relative Colormetric
    5.) In the Win 7 Control Panel>Color Management>Device, my Device = NEC LCD2690wuxi, ICC Profile = NEC LCD2690wuxi (default), file name = nl269wui.icm
    6.) In the Win 7 Control Panel>Color Management>Advanced, Device profile = System Default sRGB IEC61966 - 2.1 and (everything else set to System Defaults too). The only difference from the PS Color Settings being that Windows is defaulted to Perceptual Intent, but a change in either PS or Win 7 has no effect on the relative color differences.
    7.) The monitor is set to the Native internal preset, but the relative differences in color remain the same even if the monitor is changed to sRGB, or any other internal preset.
    8.) I have Proof Setup set to Monitor RGB but none of the settings will match the Win 7 Background color.
    Now, my question is this. How would you set up your color settings/profile in PS and/or Windows to match color between PS and the Windows desktop of Windows 7?

    Nevermind. I didn't have Proof Colors checked.

  • Captivate 5.5 is setting a Mastery Score in the Manifest when using Slide Views

    We have encountered a problem with Captivate 5.5 where it is setting the Mastery Score in the manifest to match the Quiz score setting even though we are only using slide views to track completion.  This is a problem because if we set the score to zero, our Saba LMS will immediately grant the user credit for the course on the first slide.  If we set the score higher than zero, the user will never get credit for the course as Captivate doesn't send a score to the LMS when using slide views to track completion.  Our LMS seems to ignore the status passed by the course once the Mastery Score is set.  We have compared the manifest behavior in 5.0 and it does NOT set the Mastery Score.  We can edit the manifest prior to loading in the LMS but this is a hassle and we'd like to figure out a way to permanently change the behavior to no longer set Mastery Score when using Slide Views to track completion.

    Hi,
    I believe the easiest way to do this is to edit the manifest.xml file in the Captivate Templates folder.  I posted instructions on doing that here: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/956390?tstart=0
    Hope this solves your issue.  V

  • My iPad jumps back to the desktop when using a page or app

    My iPad (original) jumps back to the desktop when using Safari or an app. Any fixes?  This is my second original iPad. The first one did the same thing.

    If you're stuck within an app or you've noticed a problem, simply hold both the home button and sleep/wake button at the same time. It's important to keep your fingers on these buttons until step 3.
    After a few seconds the red ‘slide to power off' screen will appear, simply ignore this. Ensure your fingers are still holding down the home and sleep/wake switch.
    Shortly after you should see the Apple logo, it's now safe to let go of the iPad's buttons. Your iPad should now boot, beware this process can take up to 10 minutes or so.

  • Live type files look grainy and do not fill the background when used for green screen backgrounds.

    live type files look grainy and do not fill the background when used for green screen backgrounds. Ideas?

    What I want to do is somehow make my entire iMovie project smaller by compressing it somehow but without losing any footage or audio or quality. At the moment the project is a 56GB iMovie project lasting approx 1hr. I have a mixture of miniDV footage, titles created in Live Type (they are better quality than anything available in iMovie) and audio.
    The miniDV footage is automatically compressed when it transfers from my camcorder to my Mac, no worries there.
    The LiveType titles contain a motion background (imported into LT) and then text which appears and disappears at set points. The titles vary in length but are about 5 seconds each.
    The file size for the LT titles is approx 180MB per clip, the movie requires about 20 or so of these clips, making a very large file size overall.
    Is there a way that I can save something in LT so that the file size is smaller yet still keep the quality and use the clip in my iMovie ?

  • IViews Links Shifted to the Right when using Firefox

    Hi,
    We are using SAP Netweaver Portal 7.0 and have created multiple portal themes.  With one of the themes we created, it looks that the iViews links that appear in the the detail navigation of the portal are shifted to the right when using firefox.  There are no issues however with the sap standard theme.  Please let me know what theme properties may cause the iViews links to be shifted to the right when using Firefox.
    Thank you,
    Ghizlane Idrissi

    Hi Rahul,
    I understand the limitations with Firefox.  However, i experience this issue only with the theme we created.  With the standard SAP theme, the issue is not there. That tells me that the issue is with the theme we created.  I just can't find what specific property in the theme editor is causing that. Any thoughts?
    Thank you.
