Stream 7 Can't Turn off screen without putting tablet into sleep mode

Is there a way to switch the screen off without the tablet going into sleep mode?
So that I can play music in the background?

Hey @Crixxtachi ,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand you're experiencing issues playing background music while the screen is off.
The tablet will work just like a laptop or desktop and we need to look at some Windows settings for this.
The simplest solution is to access your power management settings, and set the display to go to sleep but not the computer, or at least increase the time before the PC actually enters sleep mode.
I havn't had a chance to test a Windows tablet yet but I would assume that in the power management settings you should see something on the left hand side that says "Change what pressing the power buttons do." In here you may be able to set it to turn off the display.
Let me know if that helps.

Hi. My ipod touch (3rd gen) will not turn off or resond to anything and will not connect to a computer. the screen will not go into sleep mode and i dont know what to do. help?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

How can I turn off iCloud without losing my documents?

How can I turn off iCloud without losing my documents?
When I try to sign out Icloud I get the warning (( If you turn off Documents & Data, all documents stored in Icloud will be removed from this Mac))
I don,t want to remove my document on my computer, what should I do?

If you are refering to documents such as Pages and Numbers files....
The only way around this is to "save as" you icloud documents using the associated app to a local folder on your mac. Then turn off icloud.
Of course, when you sign off of icloud, the docs are removed from the mac, but remain in icloud. In the future when you sign back in, the documents are available to you again.
Oh, and the icloud documents are also stored locally in ...
~/Library/Mobile Documents
Note that Library in the user's home folder is now hidden, so you'll have to set Finder to view hidden files.
The Mobile Documents folder has subfolder where copies of the doc/data files are stored.
You can move these files to another folder to save them.

IPhone 3gs wont turn back on once it goes into sleep mode!

2 days ago my iPhone 3gs (OS 6.0.1) has gone completely wacko on me and i'm completely frustrated! I have my phone set to have the screen shut off after 5 minutes. Usually, to just reaccess the phone I just simply hit the home button. Now, if I let it go into sleep mode, the phone WILL NOT come back on! I went online and did some research, and it suggested holding the home button and the sleep button for 10 seconds to get it to come back on. It works most times, but sometimes it takes a few tries to get it to come back on, and when it does come back on it takes forever to load up. But the whole thing happens all over again when it goes into sleep mode. My phone is fine as long as I set it to never go into sleep mode, but it is killing my battery. I need to be able to put it into sleep mode as I have to be able to go all day without charging it at my job. PLEASE help...I don't know what's going on with it. I have never done anything to it (jailbreaking, illegal stuff, etc.) and I do all the updates that it asks to do.
Please please help!
Jennifer.

If you actually see a "6" error code, here's what it means. Disable your anti-virus and/or firewall.
Errors related to third-party security software
Error 2, 4 (or -4), 6, 1000, 9006
Follow Troubleshooting security software. Often, uninstalling third-party security software will resolve these errors.
There may be third-party software that modifies your default packet size in Windows by inserting a TcpWindowSize entry into your registry. Your default packet size being set incorrectly can cause these errors. Contact the manufacturer of the software that installed the packet size modification for assistance or follow this article by Microsoft: How to reset Internet Protocol (TCP/IP).
Verify that access to ports 80 and 443 are allowed on your network.
Verify that communication to albert.apple.com or photos.apple.com is not blocked by a firewall, or other Internet security setting.
Discard the .ipsw file, open iTunes and attempt to download the update again. See the steps underAdvanced Steps > Rename, move, or delete the iOS software file (.ipsw) below for file locations.
Restore your device while connected to a different network.

Imac keeps putting itself into Sleep Mode.

This morning my Imac has put itself into sleep mode twice within an hour - losing everything I was working on. It just goes black and then loads the log in screen.
I've never had this issue before, it's not over heating (not sure if that could be a problem) it's not full up, it's not lagging it's just this problem.
I really cannot afford the time to take my Imac into the store for repair unless ofcourse it's really needed. Can someone help please?
Thank you,

Hi Tori,
Unfortunately I'm unable to help, but I want to add that I had exactly the same problem this morning (Jan 13, 2013)! It was putting itself into sleep mode twice within 5 minutes.
In contrast to TorkiClarkson, the fan of my iMac was blowing hard, but that happened a lot the last months without falling into sleep mode. Actually I'm a bit afraid I've got a heating problem since my warranty of 1 year has experienced..
Hope someone has valuable information for TorkiClarkson and me.
Thanks.

Can I turn off screen rotation?

I would like to know if I can turn off screen rotation espicially in music.
Thanks,
Dave

Unfortunately, you cannot with a 2G iPod touch, and, if your info is correct at the bottom of your post, not with iOS 3. This was a feature for iOS 4, but again, even if you had iOS 4, 2G's weren't given that feature for whatever reason.

Smart Cover doesn't put iPad into Sleep mode in Unlock position after iOS 8.3 update

Prior to the iOS 8.3 update, closing my Smart Cover would put my iPad into Sleep mode when in the Unlock position. Since the update, this function no longer works in the Unlock position. In the Lock position, I hear the click and the iPad does go into Sleep mode. Since I am the only one using my iPad, I don't need it locked when at home. Has anyone else experienced this problem?

hi guys. i'm back.
i solved my problem. i refer my iphone 5 to a local distributor. a repairman checked my iphone and i described my problem. he checked my battery. it was fine! then after an hour excavation around hardware solution he told me that the charging kit crashed because of heavy mobility usage!
yes. i did not covered my phone with any cover. the cpu pressure by ios update crashed the kit! now my phone get back after the kit changed and work finally. i restored my phone to ios 8.2 now.
i'm going to buy new iphone. but i'm really confused if such this issue really happened for iphone 6 too!!!!!
i'm totally disappointed .

How to turn off screen without passcode lock.

I just upgraded my wife's iPad 2 from ios 6 to 7. It used to be when you closed the ipad cover, it would turn off the screen right away. I would still like it to turn off the screen right away when the cover is closed (so as not to waste batteries) yet NOT require a passcode when opened again (just a slide of the arrow like it used to be). But right now, if I turn off the lock/unlock feature, and close the lid, the screen will remain full-on until the the auto-lock timer goes into effect - which will be never if I set it to "never".
I don't want to argue about the merits of having a passcode, I concede all your points, so there is no reason to tell me how stupid I am for not wanting to use one - but I would like to be able to have the screen go off without requiring a passcode to turn it back on. Is this now impossible? At the least, it should turn off the screen immediately when the cover is closed, and wait to put it in passcode lock mode until the auto-lock timer expires.
Is there any way to do this or is this just a case of Apple imposing this security feature our own good? Thanks.
-J

Wow. That was a super-fast answer. Thanks. I had seen that optoin and foolishly hadn't tried it because I thought typing my passcode there was just another way to put it into passcode lockdown "immediately". Well, I said I was stupid. Thanks, it does now work the way it used to and I can still have it require the passcode after a certain timeout period.

Locking Your Screen Without Putting Machine To Sleep?

Hi, I was wondering, is it possible to lock your screen in Mac OS X 10.4 without putting your machine to sleep? I would like to have running processes continue to run and securing machine at the same time. If this feature doesn't exist, is there an alternative way to accomplish this under Mac OS X 10.4? Well, I must go and thanks in advance.
Happy New Year,
-Conrad

Yes, you can set the Screen Saver to have a password which will let things run in the background, and turn off the Energy Saver.
Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Security. Turn on the checkbox "Require password to wake this machine from Sleep or Screen Saver"
Choose the Screen Saver via Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Desktop and Screen Saver and change its times there.
Choose Energy Saver (Sleep) via Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Energy Saver to change its times.

How can I lock my mac without putting it to sleep or logout?

Hi,
I want to be able to keep my mac running, but when I live my home I rather want it to be locked. But the only choices I have is to logout, put it to sleep or minimum waiting for 3min for the screensaver to start.
I've searched for widgets and through the OS it self and haven't found anything.
Any one who know a little hack that you can do this?

I am not at my Mac right now, so I cannot verify the correct settings, but here goes:
You can do this through the Keychain Access utility. Go into Applications -> Utilities -> Keychain Access, and then click on "View" on the menu bar (Authenticate as administrator if the screen is grayed out by clicking the padlock in the lower left corner). Click on "Show Status in Menu Bar" and save your settings. Click the padlock again to disable changes. Now a black lock icon should show up in the upper right hand corner on the menu bar. Click it and your choice will be something to the effect of locking the keychain, and locking the screen.
You can also use the fast user switching menu that was mentioned in another reply, but if you do and you just click on "Login Window" in the drop down users menu, and you have your users show up as a list of names with pictures, it is more insecure because it showes exactly who is logged in, and their name is already spelled. This is the same problem with the Keychain method and the screen saver -- the name of the user is already filled in. To prevent would-be thieves from accessing you mac through Fast User Switching, change the login box to display name and password fields instead. This method doesn't allow someone to see the logged in user, but it is inconvenient until you get used to it. Hope this helps.

Connect MBP to external monitor without putting it to sleep mode closed

Hi,
You must be wondering what I mean.
I want to connect my MBP mid 2010 to a external monitor. (Already done that)
My problem is:
I`m now using my MBP on my external monitor. But, the laptop is open beside the monitor (which is kinda annoying for me) . every time I close the MBP, the laptop automatically puts to sleep, which is normal right? what I want is, using my macbook on external monitor while the macbook is closed and not in sleep mode. Is that possible? Dont know if you understand what I mean, I`m not that good in english.
:P

Hey! Everyone! If you don`t understand what I mean, (I know that I`M ***** at english) feel free to say "I Don`t understand what you mean! you F*cking IDiot!"...
just need some help.

Energy Saver doesn't put Powerbook into sleep mode

I've noticed many issues with Sleep mode on the PB line, but wondered if anyone else was having this problem:
PB will go to Sleep if it's told to (shut lid, Apple Menu -> Sleep, Logitech Keyboard Sleep/Shutdown button, etc), but it will not put itself to sleep if left idle for ANY amount of time. Does not seem to matter whether or not it's plugged in.
I should not that the screen goes blank, but the hard drive never seems to spin down, little white light on lid release never comes on, etc. So it could be Sleep VS Deep Sleep, don't know really.
Note, this is not unique to my machine; others in the office where I manage systems/network have this problem, and we run a variety of G4 powerbooks 15 " models.
Not really sure when it stopped sleeping (have been on the ball with 10.4.x updates) but has been the case for some time now.
Also, have reset the PMU, and has not made any difference. Any one else having similar issues? Seems to me like Power Management of the G4 may have broken along the way.
Cheers,
J
Powerbook G4 15" Mac OS X (10.4.8) 1.5 GHz

Joe,
No Classic running; haven't had Classic on my system for at least 6 years. You could say that I'm a bit of an OS X biggot, to be honest. No looking back, and all that.
Used Top/Activity Monitor, and nothing running save the daemons/procs that usually appear - certainly nothing that jumps out at me as a problem. Even disabled all virus checking just to make sure it hadn't developed an incompatability with something in one of the last updates - no effect. Seriously, this is a case of 'it worked yesterday, and now (post updates) it doesn't.' Not that it's evident what the culprit is; nothing on the 10.4.8 updates seems a likely candidate, nor does anything on the 10.4.7. And not that I could even pin point when it happened either - simply became evident over time that hard drive wasn't spinning down, Sleep light wasn't coming on, etc.
I'm tempted to fish out my ol' TI Book 400, and give it a go and see if it has problems. Would at least eliminate any hardware dependencies that might be an issue. Don't know that I can be bothered though - in the grand scheme of things, it's just a minor thing and digging much deeper would require effort that would get in the way of real work.
In any case, all suggestions are welcome and help is appreciated.
Jeff

Turn off screen without locking

I just want the Ipod screen to go black automatically after some time, but I dont want it to lock at the same time. So to wake it up, I just want to touch the screen and not have to unslide the lock. Is there any setting to make this happen?

Well, this is getting interesting. The previous 2 responses describe different behavior for doing the same thing. While listening to music, and then the ipod auto locks, then double clicking home you get:
- the unlock bar at the bottom, but above, also music controls, that you can use, or
- some other controls that are somewhat transparent, hovering over the wallpaper, that you can use.
Well, I don't get either of those two! How can it be that 2 people are getting these different results, but i dont see either one?
