Is there a way to turn off a 24" LED Cinema Display without unplugging it?

I recently bought a 24" LED Cinema Display to use with my Macbook Air 13".  However, it doesn't seem to have an "off" button.  When I close the MacBook Air, the display is active - so it can be used with peripheries - but I'm not sure how to turn it off safely.
If there is no way to turn it off, which I suspect is the case, is it best to disconnect from the computer or from power to turn it off each day?
Thanks for any suggestions.

Hey ASMNYC,
While the Apple 24" LED Cinema Display does not have an off switch as such, and can not really be turned off short of disconnecting from power, it is possible to put the display into a low power consumption mode - display sleep. See this article for more information about Energy Saver modes -
About Energy Saver sleep and idle modes in Mac OS X - Apple Support
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Be well,
Brett L

  • When sharing screen from work with my home computer, is there any way to turn off the display at home?

    Hi, sorry if this is a silly question, but when I'm viewing my desktop on the home computer from work (as in I've connected by finding my computer in the finder and hit the "Share Screen" button - is there any way to turn off the display at home? It seems a bit of a waste of power to have the screen on when I'm not actually there - I just need to be able to see all my programs etc on the remote screen in order to use them. My home computer is a 2011 iMac running latest Mountain Lion, work is a 2010 MacBook Pro.
    Thanks in advance!

    I've set up another user on my home Mac and left that one logged in. Now when I connect from work it asks me if I want to share the screen or log on virtually as my user. I think choosing the second option doesn't power up the screen.

  • Is there any way to turn off the auto formatting in Pages?  I just want to type a letter and add pictures and titles, and Pages keeps changing font sizes and doesn't let me "Do it my way".  I HATE this!

    Is there any way to turn off the auto formatting in Pages?  I'm using a blank document, so I figured I could write my letter and add pictures any way I wanted to.  But NO!  Pages keeps changing the font size!  I typed a large heading as a title, and when I try to change to a smaller font for the body of the letter, it changes the size back to the larger size!  I am getting SO FRUSTRATED!  I've spent over an hour trying to get the stupid program to let me just type my letter!  Can anyone help?

    The only one left is the "unsubmitted text" dialogue, which would not be a problem if I were not a Facebook user; after updating the "Richard is..." field (which does not require a manual submit to actually send) I get the above message. This is obviously Safari just not realising that the info has been sent and is therefore (I imagine) one for Apple themselves to answer!!
    You're welcome Rich. Glad to help.
    Not being a Facebook User, I'm not sure how to respond to the error situation. However, this would be something to report to Apple as a bug via the Safari Menu. First, open to the page in question, then select "Report Bugs to Apple".

  • CS6 Multicam Edit - Is there a way to turn off some camera angles when the system gets strained?

    I'm doing a multicam edit in cs6 and the 5 camera angles I have are straining my system.  I have two main angles and three kind of back up go pro angles that I don't need most of the time.  But I don't want to get rid of them either.  Is there a way to turn off monitoring some of the angles at times so that video will playback smoother?  Then when I need the other angles, switch them back on when I want?  The video is so choppy with all 5 angles monitoring at once that multicam editing is basically impossible.  I'm editing on what's supposed to be a very fast system at work but it's not fast enough...Thanks!

    I'm not aware of any way to do this. You might want to invest in a battery case if this is a problem for you; our users here all have them.
    Please submit your feature request to Apple at this link: http://www.apple.com/feedback; I agree it's a good idea.

  • In iOS 7 is there a way to turn off that new camera burst mode?

    I like the old camera ability to keep your finger on the shutter and release to take a photo. It helps avoid camera blur with certain close shots you are trying to frame, and was one of my favorite "hints on using your camera" for the iPhone.
    But with iOS 7 this has turned into burst mode, which is driving me crazy.
    Is there a way of turning off burst mode for the shutter button and having it work like it did before?
    Thanks,
    doug

    Thanks, Doug.  I'm a little disappointed to discover so few of us who miss what I consider one of the iPhone camera's cleverest refinements.  Being able to hold one's finger on the shutter and release to take the photo is something I did by habit, and now sorely miss.
    Most troubling to me is that the change represents a shift to favoring an entirely new way of taking photographs — a style I'd conservatively call, "by the seat of your pants".  That's never the way I've taken photographs. 
    Like Nadnerb19, I'm hoping Apple reconsiders its priorities, and gives us the option to make a choice between machine gun style photography and the steadier, more 'focused' approach afforded by previous versions of iOS.

    The Apple TV will go into standby mode. You would have to unplug it for it. The device uses very little power so there shouldn't be a need to do this.

  • Is there any way to turn off keypad sounds when making a phone call?

    I am a new user to iphone....is there any way to turn off sounds of keypad when making a manual phone call of someone not in address book?
    Thanks

    If I understand the question correctly, it is not about turning off keyboard clicks, it's about silencing the beeps made when manually keying in a  phone number. With keyboard clicks turned off, the beeps still sound when keying in a phone number. If I'm reading the iPhone User Guide correctly, it explains how to turn off keyboard clicks but not how to silence the   beeps when keying in a phone number. The only way I have found to silence the beeps is to put the phone into silent mode.

  • Is there a way to turn off photo sharing between three iphones?

    We just purchased three iphones. Is there a way to turn off the photo sharing? We only want the pictures to be on the phone that took them, not shared between all three. 

    If you mean they are signed into the same iCloud account and are sharing the same photo stream, go to Settings>iCloud>Photos and turn Photo Stream off.

    Is there a way to turn off Game Center?

    I'm afraid not, once you've signed in with your Apple ID it pops up everytime you open a game or app that Game Center supports.
    You could try signing out of your App Store in the settings menu this may help?

  • I noticed that touch id can be bypassed by swiping and entering passcode.  Is there any way to turn off the passcode, so the phone can ONLY be unlocked using your fingerprint?

    I noticed that touch id can be bypassed by swiping the screen and entering your passcode.  Is there any way to turn off the passcode, so the phone can ONLY be unlocked via fingerprint?  I liked the idea of having the extra security of a fingerprint sensor, but not if the phone can still be unlocked using only the passcode.  Then, what's the point of touch id?  Am I missing something here?

    What happens if the touch ID sensor gets broken?  It is a backup method to get in to your device.
    Consider editing your lock screen passcode, changing it from a simple 4 digit code, to a longer more complex password.
