How do I get it so my computer doesn't goto sleep when I close it?

Is there anyway to get so my computer wont disconnect me from the internet and put my computer to sleep.

Not to my knowledge...
Atleast it cannot be done with a simple Preference change. Maybe there's some thrid party software that allows this option.
Version Tracker - spend some time search around here.
This also annoys me, but I've grown to live with it.

  • How can I get mail if my computer doesn't have Lion?

    I'm running Snow Leopard on a early 2008 MacBook Pro. I am waiting until the release of Mountain Lion to upgrade the OS, assuming it will meet the requirements. On my 3G iPod and iPad, I have upgraded to iCloud. The problem is that I haven't received any mail on my MBP since June 30. I haven't changed the address, which works fine on the other two devices. I was under the impression that mail, at least, would continue to be downloaded. What can I do?
    Thanks!

  • When I use Home sharing, I can see the library I want to copy, but when I highlight the library, the import button does not show up. Also, it will not let me drop and drag. How do I get music from one computer to the other computer?

    When I use Home Sharing, I can see the library I want to copy under Shared, but I can't get it save on the computer under the regular library. I go to edit and "select all" but there is no import button that is in the right hand corner. Also, it will not let me click and drag the music. How do I get it from one computer to the other?

    Since both computers are connected via the network, you could simply copy the ENTIRE iTunes folder from one computer to another via the network.
    If both computers are running Windows, use the Easy File Transfer Utility built into Windows to move iTunes and all other user media/data.

    You don't need to manually put iTunes Store purchases in the cloud. If that purchase can be stored there in your country, it's done so upon purchase. If not, it isn't possible.

  • How do I get idvd on my computer? It did not come installed even though I have ilife

    How do I get idvd on my computer? It did not come installed even though I have ilife? Also, no operating system dvd came with my computer. I have had it for 5 months so its quite new.

    iDVD is no longer developed or shipped by Apple. You can purchase an iLife 11 disk (if you can find one) or purchase an alternative DVD authoring app.
    SInce 10.7 should you need to re-install you do so via the Recovery partition and/or the App Store.

    You have to have Mac OS X Mountain Lion installed on your MacBook, however the only way to get it right now is if you are a developer.
    Other than that, you will have to wait until it is officially released.

    Hello Warren,
    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with your iPod nano.  It sounds like your iPod nano is not being recognized in iTunes on your Windows computer.  I found an article with steps to address this:

    Hello Rachel_Bouzo
    The main thing is to update your Mac with OS X Mountain Lion v10.8.2 or later and you will have an option to use the app Messages. Just add the account there and yo are good to go.

  • After restarting my computer firefox is deleted for Windows, when i try to open firefox a message pops up saying the program has been moved from its original location and is unable to run How do I get Firefox on my computer permanently?

    After restarting my computer firefox is deleted for Windows, when i try to open firefox a message pops up saying the program has been moved from its original location and is unable to run How do I get Firefox on my computer permanently?

    I have tried everything I could to fix this, but some things require actually being on Firefox, and since I cannot get on, I cannot click on the tabs to do it. I have even totally uninstalled firefox, and that has not fixed this. I still get the same message that firefox is running and I need to close it or restart (which I have also tried dozens of times). I have removed things like Java, and that has not helped either. If I cannot even get on line in firefox, how can I fix this. I am not crazy about using internet explorer, but right now, it is my only option. I even tried to start in safe mode, and the same message box pops up!

  • HT4890 How do I get photos onto my computer from my iPhone?

    Hi,
    How do I get photos onto my computer from my iPhone?
    Thanks!

      Go to the iTunes Store.
    Plug your iPhone into your PC (use the USB cable provided with the phone).
    Next, look for the iTunes Store bar-icon towards the top right ( where it is on my PC screen).
    Next to it an iPhone bar-icon will pop up. Click it and follow instructions. After that, your phone will auto sync photos and tunes when you
    plug it into iTunes.
