How to turn of display

Hey how can i turn of my imac's display and it not go to sleep, as i want no display but a irc bot running at night, How do i do this.
Christopher

I use an active corner to do this whenever I want to sleep the display. It's quicker and saves more energy than the energy saver options.
System Preferences - Expose & Spaces - Expose tab - choose a corner and select Put Display to Sleep.
Now whenever you move the mouse pointer to that corner the display will go to sleep.

When I open a PDF which has form fields, it displays each form field's tab order number. They appear as little boxed numbers in the upper left-hand side of each form field. Can anyone let me know how to turn off the display of these tab order numbers?
Thanks in advance for your help.

How to turn off display while connected to external monitor??

I'm running my macbook into an external monitor, using wireless mouse and keyboard. I want to get full power from my graphics card so would like to know how to turn the macbook screen off while connected to the larger monitor. I have read that simply closing the lid and then waking it with the mouse will work, however wont this activate the screen as well while the lids closed? Any advice would be great!
Thanks
Phil

Hi Philip
here is the link:

And it won't turn the built screen on since macbook has sensor to prevent it turn on while it closed.
Good Luck.

S1 Yoga - How to turn off the built-in display/monitor?

Hi,
Trying to find a way/hotkey to turn off the built-in display whilst I'm connected to another external monitor with the Thinkpad S1 Yoga model. Do you guys know how to do it?
I could even remap any of the default hotkeys if someone knows how to do that as well, as the defaults are not too useful for me...
Thank you!!
Solved!

Retail Display / Demo Mode: How to turn off

Hello, I recently got a Q10 from a seller on ebay and the unit is in DEMO / RETAIL DISPLAY MODE; can anyone tell me how to turn this off so I can use the phone?
Or should I just reload the OS using Link or Sachessi? Would that do the trick?
Thanks.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

But yeah, in any case, reloading the OS should get rid of demo mode if you don't have access to the password.

HT4623 How to turn-off tap display during passcode entry

I recently bought Iphone 4s. I like the phone as such but one thing that I want to change is tap display while entering the passcode on lock screen. I don't want to see which keys I am entering as this can put my phone on risk as anyone close to me can see what keys I had pressed to unlock the phone.
Please help to let me know "How to turn-off tap display during passcode entry" on locked screen.
Thanks for the answers and suggestion.

This cannot be done. You should simply hide the display from others' view.
iPhone 5S allows you to use your fingerprint instead of the passcode.

How to change external display resolution WITHOUT clicking "CONFIRM"?

I have a somewhat unusual situation. My MacBook laptop is actually now a ModBook (a pen-tablet computer), and as such I no longer have a trackpad attached to it. All of my inputs are via the stylus, tapping directly on the built-in display.
This works perfectly fine, except when I need to give presentations on an LCD projector (which is quite often lately). I like to use the projector as an external monitor, so that I can run the Keynote presentation on it while using my laptop screen as the presenter's display, with the upcoming slide, etc. If the projector doesn't give me an ideal native display option (sometimes, the aspect ratio for the 3 or 4 resolutions available in the Displays drop-down in the menubar turn out to be stretched or squeezed), then I, naturally, have to open the Display System Preferences and try out different resolutions.
The problem is, since my stylus only interacts by clicking directly on the built-in-display, I have no way of moving the cursor over to the external display when the dialog box with the "Click here to confirm change/You have 15 seconds..." message appears. So I can never click it ... so I can never confirm the new settings.
The workarounds I've used so far are:
- Mirror displays (not ideal, as I need the presenter preview of the next slide)
- borrow a mouse from someone (usually from a Windows desktop, frankly) and plug that in to briefly mouse over and click the confirm button
I'd love to find a software workaround that allows me to NOT mirror displays and also doesn't require me to carry around a mouse all the time (my laptop bag is already overstuffed...).
Thanks.

How to change the display resolution of APEX ??APEX doesn't have a display resolution. "Display resolution" is an attribute of the device and user agent software used to view the APEX page.
What do you mean by "the display resolution of APEX"?
In other word, if an end user sees large elements on a pageWhat "large elements"?
then he/she zooms it outHow?
"Zooms" what—the entire page or a single "large element"?
How can I set a proper ZOOM for my app by default ...Meaning what?
And as usual, we're missing:
<li>Full APEX version
<li>Full DB/version/edition/host OS
<li>Web server architecture (EPG, OHS or APEX listener/host OS)
<li>Browser(s) and version(s) used
<li>Theme
<li>Template(s)
<li>Region/item type(s)
You've been posting here for years. You know this basic information is necessary to understand and reproduce problems.
If you're looking for help it doesn't seem unreasonable that you make the effort to provide a full, clear but concise description of the problem or requirement.

How to turn off sound when iMac starts up

how to turn off or turn down sound when my imac starts up

debrafromusa,
This would be an extremely bad idea, the start up tone is there for a reason. It tells you when your system is attempting to boot, it is also necessary in the even resets like a PRAM reset are done. There is software to mask the sound however as stated it is a very poor idea.
Also, why turn it off. Why not simply put the display to sleep when the machine is not in use. You can easily do that in System Preferences - Energy Saver

How to switch screen display to projector using fn button

Just started to use an external projector via usb with my Macbook. Can anyone advise me how to switch the display from the screen to the computer. I believe it is via the Fn button......... thanks

He might have inadvertently hit a keyboard shortcut for zoom: go to System Preferences -> Universal Access and see if Zoom is turned on. If so, turn it off and it should return to normal.
If that's not it, there is another possibility: go to System Preferences -> Displays and click on Display. Check to see that the highlighted resolution is the last (highest) one; that is the native resolution; if you reduce it, everything becomes larger.
