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.

You should take it to an Apple store or an AASP (Authorized Apple Service Provider) Carefully inspect the hinge joint and make sure there is no debris that you can see, you can try carefully sliding some sticky tape thru the joint to clear any loose stuff out. But this sounds like there might be more going on here, and the hinge is something that you do not want to fool with.

Is there a way to keep the screen from lighting up every time an email comes in, but still be able to see the email on the lock screen when you press the home button?

Is there a way to keep the screen from lighting up everytime an email comes in, but still be able to see the email on the lock screen when you press the home button? This is killing my battery, but also is kinda the whole point of the notification center in my mind.

This is something I've been wondering. I am a bit like you, I like being able to have a glance at emails or Facebook updates without having to log in, and I think it would be great to be able to turn off the notification switching the screen on, especially for emails as I do get a lot, and Facebook, but I somehow doubt it is possible.
I am currently monitoring how much this eats up my battery charge. On a normal day, after an overnight charge, I would probably still have 30%-40% left when I leave work in the evening. Today, I was down to 48% by lunchtime, where I've usually got a good 60-70% left... Might have to turn email notifications off on lock screen until it's possible to have them appearing in the list without flashing me...

How do I keep the screen from dimming in Front Row DVD Player

Nothing against the standard DVD Player program, but when I'm using the remote Front Row has more functionality. When I use it plugged in, there is no problem, but on battery power the screen auto-dims like normal and then brightens again and dims again...on and on. It proves to be very distracting.
Is there any way anybody knows to keep the screen from dimming like that while im in front row DVD player?

Go to System Preferences > Energy Saver and change the time for screen dim in your prefs for battery operation. You can always change the setting back to the existing setting later, if you like.

My screen on my MacBook Pro blacks out constantly. If I press on the bottom left side of the MacBook, I can keep the screen on. I have been placing a small note pad to keep pressure on the bottom in order to keep the screen lit up.

You should try taking the battery out and putting it back in, but then if that doesn't work, you should take it into your Apple Retail Store and have a genius at the Genius Bar take a look. That seems like a hardware problem to me.

How to keep the screen in sleep mode while using the Apple Remote?

i use the imac to play soft music for me to fell at sleep, but sometime i just want to turn the volume down/mute/stop. but the screen keep come back on and brighten up my room.
would this be possible? is there any program that could adjust this option?
any cmd that i could run to fix this?
thanks

I appreciate the help A Brody, but this does not solve what I am asking. I like being able to focus on something like a YouTube video without having to worry about losing my "spot" if I want to move the cursor to pause the movie. I want to do this on demand and not have to worry about clicking a bunch of different stuff or opening a screenshot in Preview.
If my iMac can do it, then how can my MacBook do it?

Retina MacBook Pro...is it safe to keep the screen closed?

1. Can heat affect the screen or the computer if the lid is closed while using an external monitor? Should the screen be left open just a crack or is it
ok to be closed completely?
2. Is the screen safe with the lid closed from the keys on the keyboard? Is there any chance of keys hitting the screen and scuffing it up when the lid is closed or should I keep a thin cloth or something in there when the lid is closed and transporting it around like the kind it ships with?

Thanks! Thats pretty much what I thought as well for both questions!
I was worried about #2 and asked because I remember years ago a model MacBook that did have keys that could (and did) scratch up the screen when the lid was closed and have always kept something in there since (usually the divider that ships with it). Good to know that doesn't happen any longer.

Keep The Screen on While Listening To Music IOS8

While driving and listening to music, I prefer to have the iPhone's screen on ... just makes it easier to change songs without having to hit the home button to bring the player controls back up. Is there a way to do this in ios8?

Hi shafeen,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
You can turn off the Auto-Lock in Settings to keep you iPhone from going to sleep. Keep in mind that your battery life will decrease if your iPhone does not go to sleep.
iPhone: About General Settings
Auto-Lock
Locking iPhone turns off the display. Nothing happens if you touch the screen. You can still receive calls and text messages, an you can adjust the volume and use the mic button on the iPhone Stereo headset when listening to music or on a call.
Set the amount of time before iPhone locks
Choose General > Auto-Lock and choose a time.
Have a great day,
Joe

Want to keep the screen in "fade out" mode

Hi! I hope you'll be able to help me with this one!
I use my ipod at work and I don't want to look like a guy with a tv running on his desk, so I keep my ipod touch set so that it locks after one minute. What I found really annoying is that if someone come to talk to me, I have to push the main button, unlock the ipod, and then press pause. I would like to be able to keep the kind of fade out mode that the screen turns to a few second before locking. This way, I will be able to press pause directly, and don't look like somebody who play with his ipod instead of working...
The only setting I see is the one that totally lock the ipod... is there something I can do?
If not, do you know if the screen will drown the battery a lot quicker if it's always turn on?
Thanks for your help.

There is no way to chat through this Forum. If you can provide the model of the laptop we can give detailed instructions.

Is there a way to keep the screen from turning off

I would like a way to keep my screen from going to sleep while browsing. Sometimes I am still reading the current screen when it dims out. The browser I am hoping to replace with Firefox has this option. Is there a way (option or addon) to do this?

Not possible from within Firefox. You can check to see if your device has a 'Never' option for screen timeout under 'Display' settings in Android settings. I suspect not available though as that would be a hindrance towards battery lifetime.

Keeping the screen clean

Until I get the screen protector, what is the easiest/best way to clean the screen? It seems like the the cloth just doesn't get everything.

I've had it for a year and have seen no need for a screen protector. Anything that can scratch the glass screen (which isn't much) would cut through a screen protector like butter. I just wipe it with the cleaning cloth that came with the phone.It works very well.

When using the zoom bubble, how do I keep the screen from scrolling?

I have an iphone 5s. I love that we can now scroll through previuos screens to the left or right. The problem is that when I bring up the zoom bubble to magnify something the screen scrolls when I try to move the bubble.
Anyone else experiencing this?
Any solutions?
Thanks.
