Turning off 'Sleep' in Restoring mode

I'm recovering from a bad crash. I'm in the process of restroing my computer from a time machine backup on a netword drive, but the screen dims and the computer goes to sleep every half and hour or so. The time remaining is 51 hours, 48 minutes. Is there some hidden way to make it NOT go to sleep... because eventually I am going to have to!

This website tells you how to turn off sleep through terminal commands. Be sure to type in everything AS IS so that you don't accidentally do something bad. Hope this helps you.
note: the easiest way to do this is to start off your recovery partition or internet recovery, if you're not able to fully boot into your os

Turn off sleep Proliant Microserver g7 n54l

Hi
I hope this post is in the correct section - closest I could find.
I recently purchased a Proliant Microserver g7 n54l and installed a RS232 card and Windows 7 Professional. System works well for the Access Control software I installed on it.
My problem: the microserver goes into standby mode after a few hours and has to be brought back by physically pressing the power button. I turned off sleep, hibernate and standby in Windows 7 but this doe not help.
Please help?
- is there a setting in the BIOS?
- is there some software ti install

Hi ZainHoosen,
I'm wondering if it's related to using Windows 7 Pro on a server rather than an OS designed for a server (such as MS Server 2012), but I don't know enough about this product to say for sure.
You may want to try posting this question in the Proliant Server forum board:

How do I turn off the "dynamic trim mode"?

How do I turn off the "dynamic trim mode"? I hate it, hate it, hate it. For those that love it... great. I am glad you do, keep working. I tried to adapt, but it just isn't worth the hassle. For me, I want it gone forever. Too much zooming, no simple ripple delete.
Again, if you love it, great! I want to turn it off, how about me adobe? I am so ready to move back to CS5.

Hi Jim,
You're right. What I wrote isn't the actual problem. My mistake.
The real problem is this:
If I select an edit point with the Selection Tool ('V'), for example, and then change to the Rolling Edit Tool, the cursor doesn't change while hovering over the currently selected edit point, and the only way to use the Rolling Edit Tool on the selected edit point is to first deselect it and then reselect it again. The same problem occurs vice versa.
If you toggle the trim type to "Roll" after selecting the edit with a keyboard shortcut this is not necessary. It might take some getting used to, but see if that works for you.

If I select an edit point's left side (outgoing clip) with the Selection Tool, but then want to select the right side at that same edit point (incoming clip), dragging the cursor over to the right side of the edit point has no effect (i.e. the cursor stubbornly remains a left-pointing arrow for editing the prior clip's out point). The only way to select the right side of the edit point to first deselect the left side (i.e. click on any clip) and then select the right side. The same problem occurs vice versa.
Again, toggle the trim type with a keyboard shortcut (Shift-T is for Windows, Ctrl-T is for Mac), then your tool will appear and behave as expected.
It sounds like you wish to have the Final Cut Pro behavior, where the cursor that is chosen will appear over the edit, regardless of how the edit is selected. Note that here you must click to select the edit with the proper trim type before you drag the tool.
In Premiere Pro, the cursor will not change to the selected tool unless the edit is selected with the corresponding trim type. If you want to click and drag the trim tools as you did with Final Cut Pro, yes, you must deselect the selected edit point first.
Anyone can send me a PM at any time. I'm your representative to the Premiere Pro team.

How do you turn off sleep

I just got an iPad 3 today and used it to post a recipe I could refer to while cooking. But it kept going to sleep. understandably to reduce battery usage. I've looked for a control to turn off sleep but do not see one. I'd settle for just touching the screen to wake it up. but now I have to press the button and do a swipe to bring it back (with sticky fingers)

How can I make my computer not turn off (sleep mode, or hybernate)? While plugged into the wall.

I have two dogs, and i am trying to see which one is tearing up my couch while im away by recording via my built in camera and "iMovie". But after a few times trying, I relised that my computer "sleeps" or "hybernates" after only a half an hour. It is plugged in, and i went to System Prefrences > energy saver > then clicked on power adapter and moved both "computer sleep and display sleep" to never. turned off my screen saver. and still having issues with this. Am i missing somthing?
Tony

Thank you Courcoul, i appericate your help. but if you would have read my whole description, you would have noticed i already tried that. "It is plugged in, and i went to System Prefrences > energy saver > then clicked on power adapter and moved both "computer sleep and display sleep" to never." i also did check the schedule times, and it is off, both wake up times, and sleep times.

Turn Off (sleep mode) Problem

i have a problem with my ipod after i have played a video and i go back to the main menu and i hold down the play/pause button it does not hibernate or sleep or whatever you wanna call it.
its fine after photos and songs is it just becasue of the memory and proce4ss usage or what
normally to fix it i can leave it for 1 minute say and then it turns of just like normal or i can start to play a song then stop it then go back to the menu then its fine is this normal???
P.s i have tried flicking on hold then off again and trying to turn off but i still have to wait????
Windows XP Pro

yes but it does it every time plus after a minute it turnsa off fine and when its not turning off everything still works fiune its not frozen etc its making me think that maybe its just like the time it takes to wind down after playing a video fullscreen perhaps?

Yoga 2 13 Tablet Screen turns off when in Tablet Mode

I just bought my Yoga 2 13, when I flip it to Tablet mode, the screen turns off. Apparently it goes to sleep. When I open it it turns on again. Do I need to do any adjustments? or is this a defect?

Try updating your drivers first: http://mobilesupport.lenovo.com/us/en/products/laptops-and-netbooks/yoga-series/yoga-2-13-notebook-l...
If that does not help, try a factory reset:
1. Turn off your Yoga 2 13
2. Press the tiny button next to the power button on the right
3. Follow instructions to perform a factory reset
If none of the above attempts have helped you, it is probably a hardware issue.

HT201413 My iPhone turns off during the restore & comes up with error 1611 - help?

My iPhone kept telling me I needed to update to the new iOS 5 software for some of my apps to update. So I plugged it in and started the update. But then my phone kept turning itself on and off. I put it into recovery mode & then tried to restore it. But it goes through as if to start the restore ie. extracting software, preparing to restore etc - the little loading bar comes up under the apple logo on my phone but then my phone just turns off.
I really need my phone back & I can't afford to buy another one which was what an apple store suggested - they didn't even do anything different to what I'd tried! I've only got a few months of my contract left until I can upgrade and I can't upgrade early. Is there anything anyone can suggest to get my phone working?? PLEASE?!
Thanks x

This Error code is most often given when Apple cannot communicate with the iPhone. Make sure your iTunes is current and is up to date. Click the iTunes Tab at the top of this Web Page and get current iTunes. If still problem, make sure the computer Hosts file is not blocking Apple Servers. Try a different computer.

Change display close actions, and turn off sleep light

I know apple doesn't like to make these things easy to change but here goes... my powerbook is in my bedroom. when I close the lid, I must put something in front of the glowing sleep light or it keeps ME awake. is there a way to disable it? or does this fall into the same category as moving the song name column out of the first position in itunes? apple has made a decision (based on who knows what input) and the end user is stuck with it...?
while we're at it: can I change the action performed when I close the lid? lock my user account but don't put the computer to sleep, for example? leave everything as it is but just turn off the display? mute the volume? show that I'm still online but attach an away message in adium? these are all things I could do with windows (tho I would never switch back) and I'm not sure why it seems so hard to do things like this with a mac.

Description and modification of the different hibernate modes
When the computer goes into sleeping mode, its behavior depends on a power management variable called hibernate mode. The hibernate mode can be set to different values:
* 0 : Default sleep behavior on most Apple computers. RAM is still powered on while sleeping. Wake up is fast. Safe sleep is disabled.
* 1 : Hibernation behavior. System is totally shut down while sleeping. RAM contents are dumped to disk. Wake up is slow.
* 3 : Default behavior on Powerbook HD computers. RAM is still powered on while sleeping. Wake up is fast. Safe sleep is enabled, so RAM contents are also dumped to disk before going to sleep.
Only a single mode can be activated at a time. In order to check what hibernate mode is currently active, the following command can be used in the Terminal application:
pmset -g | grep hibernatemode
In addition, users with administrator privileges can choose the hibernate mode. In order to do so, the following command can be used:
sudo pmset -a hibernatemode X
with X replaced by the value of the hibernate mode to set. You will be asked to enter your admin password. It will not be echoed.

IPhone 4 turns off during factory restore

My iPhone recently turned itself off for no reason. Since then, I've been trying to restore it with little success.
I've repeatedly put the phone into recovery mode and attempted a factory restore, and this has only worked three times out of several dozen, due to the phone turning off in the middle of recovery.
On the occasions where the restore worked, the iPhone functioned normally for several hours before turning itself off again and repeating the cycle.
The phone (before successful recovery) will not turn on unless plugged in. When the phone isn't in recovery mode, the screen repeatedly displays the apple logo before turning itself off before displaying the apple logo again, so on so forth.
In brief, factory restore only works very rarely and when it does the phone only works for a few hours before requiring another restore.

Restore as new, without using a backup. If this continues, there is certainly a hardware problem.

W520 - now changes to "projector only" whenever display turns off in power save mode

I have my W520 in a dock with an external monitor. The display is configured to Extend - the external monitor is primary, and the desktop extends onto the W520 screen. I don't have a screen saver. I turn off the display after 30 minutes of inactivity. Until recently both the laptop and monitor screens would turn off after 30 minutes, and then both resume when I moved the mouse or pressed a key.
Recently, the system has started changing to "Projector Only" when the display turns off. After resuming from power save mode, only the external monitor activates, and the W520 screen is disabled. I have to use Fn-F6 to switch back to "Extend" to re-activate the laptop screen.
I have rebooted and re-saved the power plan.
Why has this happened, and how do I fix it?

Hi, timg11
I have a few questions so that I may gain a better grasp of this issue:
1) What is your machine type and model? You can find this information on the bottom of your machine. It should be in format XXXX-XXX.
2) What is your operating system?
3) Does this issue occur is the computer is not in the docking station? (Please try if you haven't already).
Thanks in advance,
Adam

How do I turn off Sleep/Hibernation/Startup Beeps and Sounds?

I have a Lenovo Thinkpad x200 running vista ultimate. type 7454-cto
How do i turn off these annoying beeps that sound every time my computer goes into and out of sleep and hibernation.
I've tried turning the sound scheme to "No sounds," but the beep still sounds when computer enters and exits sleep and hibernation.
If i turn on "mute" before i enter sleep or hibernate, the beep does not sound (which is what i want). Unfortunately, its impossible to turn on MUTE when im trying to bring the computer out of sleep or hibernate (which makes it very distracting to turn the computer on during class).
Solution:
Enter BIOS by pressing F1 during boot
   >Config
              >Beep and Alarm
   Set Power control beep to [Disabled]
Message Edited by ender63071 on 09-18-2008 03:36 PM
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Just tried it out and the BIOS solution works. Here's the funny part: After disabling the beep in BIOS config, I started windows and opened Power Manager again. Sure enough, the "beep when power state changes" option was finally disabled. Just for kicks, I tried to see if I could enable it again in Power Manager. I enabled it just fine in Power Manager but when I tried to disable it again I COULDN'T! I had to back into the BIOS again to disable it. So the deal seems to be that Power Manager will allow you to turn on the annoying beep, but if you want to turn it off, you need to do it in the BIOS settings.

If this doesnt work, right click (or control + click) the font and select show in finder. Makes sure it is not located in the /Library/Disabled Fonts/ folder
