Samsung Gusto 2 powers off when close the lid

Saw another thread ("powers off randomly") about this and no answers were ever posted.
Is there a solution? Phone has plenty of charge in the battery and works fine when it's powered on. It just powers off immediately when I close it.

Removed battery and reseated. The phone now seems to remain in the powered on state when I close the lid.

Screen not turning off when closing the lid

I have Windows 7 64-bit installed on my MacBook Air 13.3" as the only OS.
Everything is working great with the bootcamp drivers except that when I close the lid the screen does not turn off. I don't want to turn off the notebook but only want the screen to turn off when the lid is down. I have looked a lot for a solution and am not able to find anything which can solve this problem.
There is nothing in the power options that can be done. Bootcamp is supposed to recognize this by itself, but unfortunately it doesn't.
Does anyone know a work around for this?
Thank you

That is correct. I have noticed the same thing. Windows 7 gives better battery life on MacBook Air then Mac OSX.
I went to talk to a Genius about this, pretty useless, told me to wait for an update. It has been half a year but no update yet. This is the only problem with the Bootcamp drivers I have experienced. I have managed to live with it, but is still pretty annoying. I always once in a while think about finding a way to fix it, but there is nothing that can fix this problem. Unless someone at Apple sees and listens to what is going on in the online fourms and fix the problem.

Powers off when i close the lid

Hey all,
I am having what seems to be a problem with many others with HP laptops.
Recently after an HP update, my laptop shuts down when i close the lid.
It seems as though, something in the update has corrupted something.
Im not sure if HP needs to put out an update to correct this issue, or if I need to fix the BIOs somehow, or what.
If anyone is familiar with this issue, and can assist me in fixing it, it would be greatly appreciated.
Please keep in mind before replying that....
1. this was not happening before and is happening now
2. I have gone into the power settings and confirmed that it has been switched to "do nothing" when the lid closes
3. only started happening after HP did an update
Thanks in advance

I see that after doing an HP update your notebook shuts down when you close the lid. You have checked the power settings and they are set at do nothing.
I would try this step first.
Go to the command prompt and run as administrator.
Type powercfg -restoredefaultschemes and press enter.
You can run the HP Support Assistant to aid with HP updates.
You could consider doing a restore back to before the HP update?

After updating my mac, I can no longer close the lid without it going into a sleep mode, that I can only wake by powering off.

Ever since I have updated my Macbook Pro to the newest version of OS, it will go into a sleep mode when I close the lid that I can only wake with powering off the entire computer. I used to be able to close the lid for the night, open it in the morning, and it would be like I never even left it overnight. Now I try to wake it up with pushing everything possibe. Is this new to the update? I even tried to set the settings to "never sleep". Help!

Try Reset SMC.

Why does my laptop turn itself off when i close the lid?

i have a HP pavillion dv4 notebook. sometimes when i close the lid and let it go to sleep, and then come back to use it, the computer is off. i get a weird DOS-like black screen with white text when it comes back on asking me if i want to start windows as normal or something like this. has anyone encountered this? does anyone know how to fix it?

Try resetting the iPod. Nothing will be lost.
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
You can also try another cable and usb port.

Why does itunes and other media continue to play when i close the lid on my macbook pro 2011???

Hey, I am new to mac and still getting used to it (making the transition from windows), its amazing! Anyhow, I cannot figure out why my itunes and other media like youtube or a film on vlc player continues to play once the lid has been closed. I thought that when i close the lid the macbook should then sleep. It does everytime when there is nothing playing. The little white light on the bottom right hand corner of the book is on but music continues to play.
The sleep option always works. If I press the power button and choose the option sleep it does so etcc.
Is this normal and am I just being stupid or is there a problem??
I bought the laptop from ebay, its a macbook pro late 2011 17inch. I dont have apple support and might have to make a trip into London to the mac store however I was hoping someone can help me...
Processor 2.4 GHz Intel Core i7
Memory 4 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
Graphics Intel HD Graphics 3000 384 MB
Software Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5 (11G63)
Thanks if you can it is muc appreciated....!!

hey, thanks for the reply. I don't know to be perfectly honest. When I close the lid without any music playing it sleeps fine. How could I check?
So basically I pressed the power button and pressed sleep. The laptop turned off and the little white light turned on no problem. I did the same thing with closing the lid and it went to sleep no problem. (Can you confirm that when the little white light is on it means the laptop is sleeping)??.
I then had itunes playing and pressed the power button and when i pressed sleep the music paused then 6 seconds later it went to sleep. I then had itunes playing and closed the lid and the music kept on playing even though the white light was on.

Yoga 2 11 Windows closes all my programs when I close the lid

Lenovo Yoga 2 11
Model 20332
Windows 8.1 64-bit
When I close the lid of the tablet/laptop, I expect that Windows will go to sleep and that when I open the computer and login, all of my windows and programs should be open as I had them when I closed the lid. Sometimes, this is the case. But other times, when I open the lid, it's as if I had logged completely out -- no windows are open, and any programs running in the notification area (e.g. Bittorrent Sync) are no longer running.
How do I configure this so that my programs are not closed when I close the lid or otherwise make the computer go to sleep?
My current Windows settings:
Control Panel > Power Options: Daily Plan
Turn off the display: On battery: 10 minutes, Plugged in: 30 minutes
Put the computer to sleep: On battery: 30 minutes, Plugged in: 1 hour
Allow hybrid sleep: On battery: On, Plugged in: On
Hibernate after: On battery: 120 Minutes, Plugged in: Never
Power and sleep buttons and lid settings:
When I press the power button: On battery: Hibernate, Plugged in: Sleep
When I press the sleep button: On battery: Sleep, Plugged in: Sleep
When I close the lid: On battery: Sleep, Plugged in: Sleep

Won't sleep when I close the lid - HELP!

A while ago, my iBook G4 1GHz was knocked off of a table. The display was smashed and the whole display assembly was destroyed. I bought a new (used) display assembly and installed it. Worked fine, but when I closed the lid, the iBook woudn't sleep. I checked the placement of the magnet in the top case and I reset the PMU. Still no sleep. So I contacted the company that sold me the display and got a different one. Still won't sleep when I close the lid. I checked all of the energy settings, reset the PMU and even tried to force sleep with a magnet from another broken iBook. Still no sleep when I close the lid. It will sleep when I choose sleep from the Apple menu (OS Tiger) and when it sits for a while with the lid open, but not when I close the lid. Any thoughts?

My original problem has not been solved. The iBook still won't go to sleep when I close the lid. I have checked out any possible software causes, and have ruled them out. I have checked to make sure no keys were being pressed when I closed the lid. I took a magnet from another iBook top case and ran it down the side of the display to try to force sleep. No effect. I don't have any Firewire or USB devices attached, to that's not it. Apple, this board, PBFixit.com, and my local Apple-affiliated repair center have no idea why I am having this problem. Two display assemblies have experienced this problem. The original display had been destroyed in a drop. Could some internal damage, like maybe to the logic board, result in such a problem? It's odd that I am the only person out there who has had this problem. Weird, to be sure.

When I close the lid to my Macbook Pro, it won't stay awake.

I am trying to hook up a SAMSUNG SyncMaster B2330 monitor to my MacBook Pro so that I can close the lid and work with my wireless mouse and keyboard instead of the laptop screen. I have limited desk space and I dont have room to have two monitors open.
When I close the lid and wiggle the mouse, my computer wakes up for a second, but then quickly goes back to sleep. I am not currently plugged into power, but I am running on battery.

Will the Thunderbolt Display work when I close the lid?

I have a 2012 Macbook Pro. I'm thinking about buying the Thunderbolt Display, but only if it can simulate a desktop and I can close the lid of my Macbook. I'm asking this because I know it goes to sleep when closed and was wondering if the Display makes it work differently. thanks.

Works great and how I do 90% of my computing.
I use a usb wireless keyboard with the receiver plugged in to the back of the TBD. When the laptop is asleep press the space key once or twice to wake up the display (be patient, doesn't work as fast as you think it should). I use a screenlock password, so enter it and we're working!
One note: if the computer is turned off you can not turn it on from the keyboard. You'll have to open the laptop, turn it on, and once you hear the chime you can close the laptop and you're gtg.

Changing what happens when the I close the lid?

I recently switched from Windows to a 13" MacBook Pro. I really like my MacBook, however, I was wondering if there was a way to set what the computer does when I close the lid (i.e. instead of going to sleep is there a way to tell it to just stay on and shut off the display)? I do work in the theatrical market and also a lot of video editing and would like to be able to start a process and then close the lid and allow it to run while I am away from the computer. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

This idea sounds highly inadvisable from the heat point of view - with a processor-intensive activity like handling video you are asking to overheat the laptop if the lid is closed.
MaxBooks are designed to be able to run when closed,so overheating should not be a proble if the MacBook ventilation is not blocked.

Won't go to sleep when I close the lid

When I close the lid of my Macbook Pro (running Lion) it doesn't realy go to sleep. When I open the lid the screen goes black. Does anyone know what the issue is?
Thanks

if you're sayingt he light doesn't blink anymore, that's new to lion.
if you are really having issues that you think are a bug instead of how it should work, try resetting your SMC as this should solve any issues with putting your computer to sleep with the lid.

MB tiger 10.4.11 won't shut down but just go to sleep when I close the lid

Hi,
I'm new to this forum but I'm desperate for your help with my Macbook 10.4.11.
Recently it doesn't shut down properly and each time I shut it down thru the green apple, it just doesn't shut down definitely but after some seconds, the screen turns to black but my mouse's light is still on. When I close the lid, the sleep light is on, too.
I've tried many advices like disabling remote facilities, e.g. Bluetooth, but it won't help. I've updated all softwares and even SMC but that won't help either. Did anyone have the same problem like mine and more important, have you had the answer yet??? I'm fed up with pressing the power off button each time.
For more info, I've installed boot camp and windows but after that, I've uninstalled it and reinstalled brand new Mac OS so there's no way that the problem comes from Windows.
Thanks in advance and waiting desperately for your help...

Hi NOTHING SPECIAL, and a warm welcome to the forums!
How much free space is on the Hard Drive?
Have you done any OS or Disk Maintenance?
At this point I think you should get Applejack...
http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/19596
After installing, reboot holding down CMD+s, (+s), then when the DOS like prompt shows, type in...
applejack AUTO
Then let it do all 5 of it's things.
At least it'll eliminate some questions if it doesn't fix it.
The 5 things it does are...
Correct any Disk problems.
Repair Permissions.
Clear out Cache Files.
Repair/check several plist files.
Dump the VM files for a fresh start.
See if it does better then after a restart or two.

Mac seems to turn off whenever I close the lid

Whenever I close the lid, my mac seems to turn off. Once I open it the screen will be a greyish hue (you can still see the windows and desktop) but there is a loading bar with a number of small vertical bars. This happens whenever I close the lid leave it for a while (1 - 2 minutes). What is this and how do I fix it?

Does it really and truly turn off? Cause if you get a grayed out screen and a progress bar, that normally means the Mac coming out of hibernation and should be up and running as soon as the progress bar finishes. As for why it doesn't sleep, no clue unless you or somebody changed the configuration.
The difference? Sleep merely shuts the screen, CPU, GPU and network down, while placing the RAM in a low-power quiesced state; recovery is very fast cause the system merely powers everything back up, validates that the RAM is not corrupted and all is good to go. Hibernation copies the entire content of RAM to disk in a "sleepfile", then turns everything off; recovery entails copying the sleepfile back to RAM, slower than sleep but still much faster than a complete boot. By default, Mac does both, using sleep as the preferred method and hibernation as a fallback measure.
There'a a utility called SmartSleep that allows you to switch one, the other or both. Available for a fee on the App Store, or use the previous perfpane free version from here: http://smartsleep.en.softonic.com/mac
