Power button function windows 7

just setup windows 7 and noticed when i hit the power button on the mac air it just puts it in sleep, i checked the function setting in start bar in windows and its set for power button action to be shut off. any ideas?

maybe you and windows have a different idea about if it's a powerbutton or something else
I would look around windows power settings and try changing some of the other actions which it have set to put it a sleep and change that to see if that solves it

Restore Original Mavericks Power Button Functionality

I'm curious if there's any way to restore the original power button functionality that was present in 10.9? I know that the slight tap bothered people with the power button being on the keyboard for some of the newer macs, but I have a mid-2009 MBP so for me accidentally hitting the power button is not an issue. I really liked being able to hit the power button and have the computer sleep immediately, kind of like an iPhone. Is there any way to change it back to that? The new way where you have to hold the power button for a couple seconds is just annoying as heck to me now (I got pretty used to the way it was originally).
Is there a program or command I can enter to fix this? I tried Google searching for this, but a majority of articles and questions are doing the opposite.
Thanks in advance.

No. Sorry.
Best.

Disable all power button functions in Windows 7

I'm configuring some Windows 7 clients to be very locked down and only run a specific application.
They auto logon correctly and start the application, but I have been unable to completely disable the power button in the start menu so that the users cannot turn the machines off in any way. I have set disable logoff and removed access to shutdown, restart,
sleep and hibernate through group policy, but the button still defaults to logoff, with all the additional options in the arrow menu unavailable.
My only other thought was to try a custom GUI instead of explorer.exe, but would much rather do it through group policy or registry if possible.

I ran into this problem with Windows 7 at a radio station. We needed to prevent our on air talent from performing any of the start menu power actions at all. We have a Reboot Script should it need to be rebooted, and we can access the system
as administrator by holding SHift key during boot up.
We basically needed windows to be set up like a KIOSK, stripping and disabling - Shutdown, Switch user, Sleep, Restart, Logoff and Lock. here is what I have found to work. I found this blog....

5156-BX7 power button function

I have a Packard Bell computer with the above motherboard in it. Course it may just say PB on the front and someone stuck the mobo inside
But is there a way to setup the system so that pressing the power button in XP shuts it down?
When I first got the system pressing the power button in XP put it into suspend mode. APM was off in the bios and disabled in Control Panel/Power
I've got XP to shut down the computer(via start/TURN OFF)now by enabling APM in the bios + Control Panel\Power Options\APM tab.

Power button functions still available in lockscreen

Hi all.
I find it to be a real concern that my power button options (airplane mode, turn off phone, etc) is still active when my lockscreen is active. IE, you can still switch off the phone even thought u didn't unlock it.
Can anyone help to disable this. It's obviously a security risk to me.
Many Tx

Unfortunately you cannot alter this, however the chance of this happening is quite minimal as it would require the power button to be pressed, released then held down for a period of time immediately after the release of the button and before it goes back into sleep mode.

Hi,
Power Button Lockout is displayed.
The monitor's Power Button Lockout function is enabled.
Press and hold the Power button for 10 seconds to unlock the Power button function.
If the above doesn't work then try a monitor reset. Unplug the monitor’s power cord and hold down the monitor’s power button for 30-60 seconds. Plug the monitor back in and power it up.

Power Button issues A1226 Late 2007 Macbook Pro

I know this sounds stupid but usually when I touch the power button a window pops up and asks me if I want to restart, shut down, or sleep. After I did the OSX update to Mavericks I have noticed when I hit the button the screen just goes black, as if it's automatically going to sleep. This is weird. Is this a legit change in the OS or is this a problem? If it is a problem, can it be fixed?

I have noticed this too. I have noticed the MBP is more glithy since the update and have to restart more often. Programs freeze, runs slower, Movies on in iTunes and on the web(netfix) stutter. Hopefully more poeple comment and Apple takes notice.

IPhone 5 power button sometimes doesn't work under iOS 7

Hi, my wife has noticed the problem which started to appear on her iPhone 5 after she has recently upgraded to IOS 7.0.2
Power button randomly doesn't respond to power off the phone but never to power it on. Does anyone has similar issue?

The issue could be a faulty power button. There's nothing, that I'm aware of, in iOS 7 that would cause inconsistent power button functionality.
Make sure you depress/hold the power button long enough to see the RED power off slider.

Cannot turn off on power button efter upgrading to Yosemite

I usually turn off or stand by on the power button. But that does not work after upgrading to Yosemite; now I have to click the Apple icon instead. Not a big trouble, but still annoying. Can I set something up to reenable the power button? If not, does a shortcut key to the apple menu exist?

The power button function has changed a little from previous versions of the OS

Power button shutdown choice window always open

I turned off my MacBook Pro using the power button after running Migration Assistant transferring user profile from another Mac via ethernet. The migration stalled. I turned off the new MacBook Pro and now, after it starts up normally, the window that you get when you press the power button that gives you the option to Restart, Sleep, Cancel or Shut down is always on. It won't cancel, but selecting any other option and starting up again the window comes back up.
The button itself still functions and doesn't feel stuck at all. I have erased the HD and reinstalled OS, but window to shutdown keeps coming up

A few more informations
My macbook felt a few times on the floor, once on the corner where the power button is located (...), but it was a few months, or a few years ago, and it didn't show the power button's problem before today
Since a few weeks, my trackpad stopped clicking
My battery says since a year or more "service battery", so it could may be battery-related ?
....Yeah, this Macbook is kind of screwed, but I'd like to keep it alive

Power button and other functions on my Nokia N86 s...

After I downloaded a few applications for my Nokia N86, the slider preferences (i.e. the sound clips that play when opening/closing the slider; the answer/hang up call function; and the key lock) stopped working. Some apps refuse to open (no response). Also, when I push the power button on top of the phone, it does absolutely nothing, thus I cannot turn my phone off.
I am affraid to take the battery out and let the phone power down then up because the power button might not be able to turn it on.
This occurred after I downloaded a few apps off of cnet.com. Here is a list of my downloaded apps with the most recently downloaded ones listed first:
F-Secure (anti virus added and scanned after problem started - no viruses present)
Handywi (wifi locator)
fring (social networking bundle)
DivX player
Google app (m.google.com/app)
Google maps
Opera Mini (web browser that now refuses to open)
HNN Soft Talking Dictionary (Chinese/English that now refuses to open)
What should I do???
(Yes, I have the most current software update)
(Not sure if it matters, but I live and bought the phone in Taipei, Taiwan)
