How can I turn off computer screen, when mirroring to apple tv?
Thanks.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You can't. Mirroring is just what it says, it mirrors exactly what is on your computer screen, if there is nothing on your computer screen, that's what you will see on your TV screen.

  • How can I turn off "reply" button when the messages come? I prefer the "open" button.

    How can I turn off "reply" button when the messages come? I prefer the "open" button. Because my friends usually send lots of messages at the same time so I cannot read all of them when I press "reply", then I have to go to Messages -> my friends' messages, and it's really complicated.

    Sorry for not quite understanding. I guess you are referring to a notice in an alert. I do not have that alert active on my device, so I cannot say. I use the banner alert, so I just get a notice of a message and can swipe to open that particular message. If I ignore it, it will eventually go away.

  • How can I turn off Recently Websites when opening new Safari window? After tapping on the two overlapping boxes on the bottom right of Safari, a new blank window appears with Favorites, but now in iOS 8, recently viewed websites are listed.

    How can I turn off Recently Visited Websites when opening new Safari window?
    After tapping on the two overlapping boxes on the bottom right of Safari, a new blank window appears with Favorites, but now in iOS 8, recently viewed websites are listed. How can I turn this function off? I do NOT want my new Safari windows to have history displayed of previous websites I visited. I only want my Favorites (on the top) to be displayed. Please help.
    Thank you for your time, patience, understanding, kindness, and concern.

    Thanks for replying, but that isn't the answer I am looking for.  Also, there is no + sign, UNLESS you do tap the overlapping boxes.
    Let me try to ask my question a little more clearly:
    When I tap the two overlapping boxes on the lower left (the option to Open New Windows), the new Window that appears will show your Bookmarked FAVORITES. But with my new iPhone 6, and the new iOS 8.0.2, when I tap the two boxes to open a New Window, my Bookmark Favorites show (as they always have and should), but below them, there is a dividing line underneath them, and it says Recently Viewed Websites, and has these websites available to tap.
    So my question is, HOW DO I TURN THESE OPTION OFF?
    *UPDATE  (10.13.14): Since I have asked this question, I no longer see these Recently Viewed Websites under my Bookmarked Favorites in my new Window tabs. So I hope that Apple fixed it, or somehow it was a mistake, or somehow I changed an Option on my iPhone 6 that stopped this for reoccurring.
    Thank you for your help bobseufert! I appreciate your concern, kindness, and the time to try to help. I am grateful.
    Have a blessed day.

  • How do I turn off computer monitor when watching DVD movie on TV monitor?

    I think this is really a Leopard question because it involves setting up 2 monitors in System Preferences within OSX. 1) I have a wide screen TV connected to my iMac (Intel White Late 2006) through the Mini-DVI port and a separate audio cable. This connection works fine. 2) The purpose of the TV screen is only to watch DVDs using the DVD player and iDVD in my iMac. 3) In System Preferences->Displays->Arrangement, both my computer monitor and the TV screen appear as separate monitors. I have the setting to mirror each other. With this setting, the DVD movie plays on both the iMac computer screen and on the TV screen. 4) FINALLY, MY QUESTION: When watching a DVD on the TV screen, I would like to turn off the monitor in my iMac so that the screen is dark (in sleep mode to save power, etc.); I want only the TV screen to display the movie. How do I turn off only the iMac screen? Thank you. Dale

    That's impossible. It can only be done on a laptop but not on an iMac.

  • How can I turn off the screen while keeping the mac awake?

    I am using teamviewer to remote connect to my office Imac from home. However, every time I connected, my imac screen will turn on and everyone else in the office can see what my imac is doing..
    Is there some method to turn off the screen while keeping the mac awake, so I can remote connect to it?
    PS: I am using OSX 10.7.3

    Energy Saver, you can keep the computer awake while the screen saver shuts the monitor off but I'm not sure that would do it for you.

  • How can I turn off my TV when I airplay music?

    Hi all
    My ATV (3rd gen) is connected to an A/V receiver using HDMI. The A/V receiver outputs to the TV using HDMI as well. Playing video is perfect. But when it comes to playing music, the TV must be turned on. If I turn my TV off, the music will stop.
    Is there a way to airplay my music without turning on the TV?
    Thanks,
    vaion

    Just to update my findings. If your TV was on and then you AirPlay the music, the music will stop when you turn off the TV. However, if your TV was off and then you AirPlay the music, the music can be played without the TV on. Well, not sure this is useful to anyone.
    Cheers,

  • How can I turn off battery charging when plugged in to power on a plane?

    Hi,
    is there an app that can turn off battery charging while plugged in?
    I regularly fly from Australia to Europe (22 hours on the plane!) but the power outlet usually stalls when draining too much power
    (e.g. 85 Watts for my Macbook Pro battery).
    Any solutions available?
    I used to just take out the battery, however, that  is not possible anymore on the Macbook Pro.
    Thanks for your help.
    Christoph

    But why turn off battery charging, makes no sense in this case. You either run off the battery or plug it in and run off the battery while it is charging.
    The power draw won't change appreciably.
    My bad power consumption will change
    It would seem the best strategy would be to get on with a fully charged battery plug in the laptop and let it trickle charge as you use it. Given the length of the flight this should give you the longest use with the minimum amount of draw from the seat outlet.

  • How can I turn off text recognition when converting PDF to Word?

    I just converted a PDF to Word.  It was an image file, but the converter recognized certain lines in the illustration as text elements, so some of the pictures are "chopped up".  Is there a way to "turn off" the text recognition feature so that I can keep my images intact?  Thanks for your help!

    You can't disable OCR if you convert via the ExportPDF website, but you can if you convert from within Reader. This document tells you how: How to disable Optical Character Recognition (O... | Adobe Community

  • How can i turn off my ipod when it's frozen?

    I was about to get on facebook and it froze. Its been 40 mins since its been frozen. What do I do?

    - Try:
    iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - If not successful and you can't turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for at least an hour try the article again.
    - If still problem that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • How can I turn off the screen saver on the iMac??

    I went to system Prefences - Sceen saver and wen to the Hot corner. Disabled all the hot corner and the sceen saver is still on ???
    What else can I do ??
    Thanks for your help.

    From the menu bar, select
     ▹ System Preferences... ▹ Energy Saver ▹ Power
    If there's a closed padlock icon in the lower left corner of the preference pane, you may need to click it to unlock the settings. Enter your login password when prompted.
    Move the Display sleep slider to the right so that the display sleeps after the screen saver starts.
