• Dell U2715H as second monitor sleep problem

  I just bought a Dell U2715H monitor to connect to my iMac 27 "mid-2010.

  Implementation, the system works beautifully. Plug n play, as we are accustomed to the Apple universe.

  But after an automatic start, this morning, the Dell remained black, what I tried.

  A phone call with the helpdesk Dell did not bring a solution; they are willing to trade for a new monitor, but I think not (just a feeling) which will tackle the problem.

  After having a cup of coffee, I came back to my Mac, who had fallen asleep in the meantime.

  Pressing a button all of life, including (surprise) the Dell monitor system.

  After a few experiences, I discovered that after a reboot, the Dell remains black.

  Put the system to sleep (using a hot corner) and pressing a key is not wake up the Dell.

  Bringing the system to sleep and pressing a button after waiting 10-20 seconds, puts the entire system, including the Dell monitor.

  The monitor is connected to a mid 2010 iMac 27 "2.93 GHz Intel Core i7, with a miniDP to DP cable.

  Although I found this 'solution' after hours of frustrating attempts, it feels a bit inadequate.

  Anyone who is familiar with this problem who found a more definitive solution?

• HP Envy m7-n011dx: HP Envy m7-n011dx - change to external monitor Sleep Mode close lid so that the aid & external keyboard

  I added an external keyboard and an external monitor to my HP Envy laptop m7-n011dx.  Both are recognized by the laptop, if I leave the lid open.  When I close the lid, the computer goes into mode 'sleep', and I can't use the laptop with the keyboard and the monitor.

  How do I charge the laptop does not go in mode 'sleep' when I close the lid, so I can use the keyboard and the monitor?

  Thank you very much!

  Hi @MPBEqual,

  Welcome to the HP Forums!

  I read your post and wanted to help.

  I understand that you want to use the external keyboard and the monitor while the laptop lid is closed.

  You must go to the Power Options. Set it to do nothing when the lid is closed.

  You can view this document in order to manage power options:

• Course of HP monitor sleep on start up

  OK, I have addressed this issue long enough. I have a HP pavilion Elite hpe-400f. Large monitor has worked on this, then one night while I was checking my email, the picture went to scrabled, and since then I am faced with an error of "Monitor going to sleep" on start up. I can not enter my settings or do anything.
  
  It does not work on the other screens to work, I tried a new set of cables, and when that didn't help, I went and bought a new graphics card. That's not good either. But I can't install the drivers until I see how to do it.
  
  So what now? About HP told me works. I'm about to go crazy with this.  I begged HP to help me for a year working to no prevail.
  
  Can you help me please?

  Hi, thanks for the response. I got it actually working last night, and for someone else, this can help. That's what I did.
  
  I tried of new cables, new video, new monitor card, everything.  I had remembered that I was faced with an error whenever I started, I think he went in the direction of "light CPU, please check CPU, stop" I restarted usually just a couple of times and he went.
  
  Then I thought, what happens if it is the fan? So I got out, cleaned with alcohol, let dry and put back. I also took the RAM and he blew for dust and placed in. I return the pc suite and voila, my one problem is fixed!
  
  Hope this can help someone as well.

• HP Envy Rove 8.1 - when the monitor sleeps, it cannot be restored

  I recently started having a new problem where the monitor on my all in a touchscreen Envy Wick not wake up after sleeping. To the best of my knowledge, the computer turns on and seems to work, but the screen is still asleep. By pressing the power button, move the mouse or press the keyboard keys seem to wake up the monitor. When I hard shut down the computer by pressing the power button and then restart the system, everything starts fine. It has been improved for Win8 to 8.1, but I don't think it's when the issue began.

  I've been reviewing several similar problems, but none seem to reflect this specific question. Any guidance would be appreciated.

  SOLUTION:

   

  Open BIOS (at first press ESC, press f10).

  F9 for default of restor

   

  Then save and exit (press f10, once again)

  Restart the computer.

  Doing this again and set it back on "Enable" that can help the computer wil not fire.

  And now your ROVE will start and sleep properly.

• Dimension 5150 puts random mode monitors 'sleep'

  Hello world

  I have a Dimension 5150 2006-era tower that frequently but randomly will monitor to all this which is connected to in mode 'sleep', with the only difficulty being a reboot.  The computer is certainly still active as you can inside VNC.

  I tried a whole bunch of bugs, including:

  -different monitor

  -different cables

  -added a video card that uses DVI (exactly the same problem happens)

  -malware

  -update the video driver

  -disabled power sleep in Windows Vista settings

  -disabled standby settings in the BIOS to power

  -update the BIOS

  -reinstalled XP Home, using the recovery disk

  This problem sometimes, right after that the computer is started, sometimes hours later, sometimes it never happens until I turn the stop/restart computer.  He went a week or two without that being a problem, then after a reboot, that's going to start to happen again.

  I am running out of ideas and guess this is a power supply or motherboard problem.  Someone has something else I could try?

  I would try a new power supply.

  I fixed a 5150 parent last year - of strange problems that proved to be due to a lack of power.

• Monitor sleep after 5 minutes

  Hello

  My monitor has all of a sudden going to sleep after 5 minutes, even if I set it to "never" in my power management. I can't find anywhere where it says go to sleep in 5 minutes. If anyone can help?

  Kind regards

  KK

  In addition to power management, check the settings of the screen saver.  Right click on the desktop and choose personalize, then click screensaver at the bottom right.  Make sure it is set to "none" instead of something like 'black screen '.

  In addition, even if you have the timeout set to never monitor in power management, also check the setting "change when the computer sleeps" on the left side.

• How can I change my monitor sleep, and why I have to enter my password to start upward.

  my computer screen goes on and I have to enter my password to reactivate. It goes off about every 30 seconds, unless I move my mouse.

  Almags,

  This works with Vista or Win7, see here

  With Win7, you can see the screensaver at the bottom right.

  Disable the logging toggle. Increase the timer to 25 minutes.

• monitor display problem - says he will sleep when it is turned on.

  Problem: the original title screen

  Turning on my computer - screen trying to start up then he said monitoring sleep - he brought once but the screen was skewed.  my monitor is fine - I have it plugged into another computer and it works fine.  would it be a virus or a video card?  should I try to hit the f8 key during startup to go to safe mode or just take it to the computer store?

  Hello

  · What is the number and model of the monitor?

  · Do you remember all the recent changes on the computer before the show?

  · What is the service pack installed on the computer?

  · Have you defined a plan of the power on the computer?

  Check the status of the graphics device in Device Manager. Follow the steps for the same thing:

  a. click on start

  b. click Run, in the Run dialog box type devmgmt.msc

  c. in the Device Manager window, locate the video drive and expand the drive, double-click the sub element to check if an error message or error code is listed.

• Vista goes into sleep mode automatically just after the restart

  The following problem was irregular. Sometimes, other times not. I'm totally frustrated as to why it is happening and I would like to solve this problem, now and forever.

  Yes, first facts: I have an Asus G71Gx laptop game with Nvidia Geforce GTX 260 M. 6 GB of memory, Windows Vista 64-bit. Do not think that other information is necessary, unless I'm mistaken.

  The problem: well, just after the start/start my laptop goes into sleep mode. As in, Windows starts fine and I see my desktop with all the shortcut icons and the background, and then all of a sudden the screen goes black (with two Dim lights blue on the screen - fellow Asus G71Gx users will know it), and the power led button flashes slowly in and out, as if it was in sleep/hibernation. The led light cover mode monitor "sleep". I did the whole "all never put under power options. I've updated my Nvidia graphic drivers for later. I even disabled Hibernate in the command prompt. Seriously, I have above average PC knowledge. But it has trampled me... everything short.

  Sometimes, I have to go through this cycle up to 9 or 10 times and then stops. Other days there is no question. But I still have to reboot just to be safe and to avoid the game stutter (another question that I don't know what it is, since I was the latest GPU drivers). But I can live with that.

  It cannot be an overheating GPU. I mean, it's at the start and at the present time, it is cold enough to have this piece as a cooler for the GPU! Haha.

  I thought about possible power supply problems. But how to test it? The laptop doesn't have it, the first week I got it. I use an adapter to put the American card in European decision-making.

  It is the ONLY major problem I have with this laptop. Sleep at startup. The other two, being game stutter if I don't restart my laptop and double tapping (seems to be an Asus problem according to the forums), are quite minor and I can live with that.

  Any help with this would be GREATLY appreciated. I'm VERY tempted to get windows 7 and do a clean install, but Vista was not really giving me any problems. But if I know that this issue is associated with Vista, then I say Bravo to Vista...

  Edit: Apologies for writing this thread Windows 7 and explore the internet forum. Don't know how it happened! Well I'm leaving here now, and hopefully this will get sorted.

  After 2 replacements of mobo that apparently caused this same prob, what finally fixed for me has been updated the chipset drivers.

• Cannot use two monitors.

  Original title: double monitors - we're missing!

  I have two monitors running on Win7 which worked very well.  All of a sudden the display on what was my main screen erased.  I tried to reinstall the monitor; spend the 2 monitors to test the VGA adapter (both monitors work), etc.  Nothing has worked.  So, I reinstalled the driver for the VGA card.  Hop, my screen on the 2nd monitor is back... until the computer went to sleep, or even when the monitors sleep.  Once the monitor turns off (whatever it is, or if I turn it on manually off & turn), it cannot be detected.  He comes back if I restart, but it's a huge time drain if I get called there long enough for the monitors to cut or the computer to sleep.  I currently have both to "never", but they stop even if they have no value.  This used to happen, but I don't know why it's happening now.  Help, please!

• Port of question - no video - DVI double separator i7-HDMI > DVI

  What I'm missing here?

  I have an i7 2.3 g-Mini late2012.  10.8.5. in a studio where I fed a dual display

  using a separator of video signals by - everything first, Tripp Lite, now an Aluratek - DVI 2-port video splitter (powered

  units).

  Followed by all the good order in start-up, the device worked for maybe a week and a half.

  Walked away and returned after maybe 48 hours either from Friday to Monday.  Computer is running

  "sleep" mode... The attempt, no signal wake video monitor not recognized.  Powerd deactivation/activation, no change.

  Reset PRAM and disconnected/reconnected Mini power after 30 seconds... tried reconnect splitter/monitors...

  sequence... still no resolution of the video signal to not watch.  Indicators on the splitter show the signal of the i7.

  and connectivity to the monitors.  I excluded this device that the fault.

  Am following the process mfgr correct insofar as the separator like so new out-of-box in reconnecting

  power on it - getting nothing.  Strange thing is, I had the same problem with the Tripp Lite - that's why I

  bought this Aluratek separator to replace.  Now, same problem.

  When connected to same monitors, this worked fine right out of the box.

  Now the same problem as the other separator.  Changed two different HDMI > DVI

  cables. All cables. No change.

  Either monitors directly linking ON the HDMI Mini port - display works fine.

  Tried the MiniDisplay port to the separator. didn't work...

  Which may conflict in operating system - something making these monitors sleep, something system-wise

  who is disrupting this process?  Even pulled all other connections (external USB port stuff) and it

  did not solve.

  It is also a coincidence for two separators to fail with this same issue - seems to indicate something with the

  Mac. In the meantime, no double posting until I can understand it.

  Any help greatly appreciated-

  Thank you

  Mike

  I suspect the power adapter... and maybe check for a loop of mass too.

• resolution 2560 x 1440 has suddenly stopped working. 1080 p now the max option available

  I have 2010 macbook pro (el capitan) and ASUS H257HU monitor that supports the resolution 2560 x 1440. Until yesterday, I was able to get the full resolution, but suddenly it has stopped working and the max resolution I could get was 1080 p.

  I tried to reset the smc and NVRAM, but that did not help.

  In safe mode, I followed the suggestion of apple and was able to get resolution of 2560. But it reboots the machine back to 1080 p. Hold down the option key and clicking on the option scale does not display any resolution above 1080 p.

  I've tried searching and following some recommendations, but no permits.

  Restart the computer and enter views sometimes give 2560 option, but clicking on it makes the screen turns blue and then it always comes back to 1080 p, with no options available in the dialog on the scale. The System Preferences dialog box hangs for a few seconds.

  Someone at - he fell on the same issue and found a solution. I don't know why he suddenly stops working, while still being able to work in safe mode but not in normal condition. I tried to remove the profiles as well.

  With bootcamp (win 7), the display works fine with 2560 x 1440.

  The connector I use is screen Mini DisplayPort.

  All proposals/solutions will be very well received.

  Hello there, moths.

  It seems that you are having problems to select the resolution you want on your external display from ASUS. Great job with the troubleshooting, you've done so far. The following Knowledge Base article offers strong information to look over and review, as well as links to some additional troubleshooting content:

  Get help with graphical problems on external displays connected to your Mac.

  Before you start

  You can solve many problems of display by updating the software on your Apple devices, cables and adapters. If you see an image on your screen, look for the software updates using the Mac App Store:

  1. Connect your external display and Apple video cables or cards that you use with it.
  2. In the Apple menu, click App Store.
  3. Click updates in the window of the App Store.
  4. Install OS X updates or firmware are listed.

  If you use a display, hub, extenders or adapter not made by Apple, check with the manufacturer for updates that might be available.

  If you try to connect a screen 4 K or Ultra HD TV with your Mac, make sure that your computer meets the requirements for the use of these external displays.

  If your firmware and software are up to date, or if you don't see the image on your screen, try the steps below for your specific problem.

  {...}

  Check the connections

  Check the connections on your Mac and external screens:

  • If you use an Apple laptop computer, try to connect the AC adapter.
  • Make sure that the power cable from the external display is connected correctly and that your display is enabled.
  • If you are using a Mac Pro (end of 2013), make sure that your screens are plugged into the right ports.
  • If you use a hub of display, Cabinet or "KVM", try to connect the video cable from your screen directly to your Mac instead.
  • Unplug the video cable where it plugs into your Mac, then reconnect to reinsert the connection.
  • If you are using a video card, unplug the video adapter on your Mac, then reconnect to reinsert the connection.
  • If you use multiple video cards to connect your screen (the cards are "chained"), testing connection of the screen by using a single adapter if possible. Some video cards may not be linked together. For example, a mini DisplayPort to DVI adapter may not be connected to an adapter DVI to HDMI.
  • If your screen has more than one video connection, see if you are using another connection on the display works. If possible, check if you use a different view or a different adapter works.
  • Try using another cable that you know to be in working condition. Check with the manufacturer of the screen to make sure that you use the cable they recommend.

  Detect your display

  If you use an external monitor, sleep and wake your Mac to check for connected screens:

  1. Press the power button on your computer to standby, or choose the Apple menu > sleep.
  2. Wait a few moments, and then press a key on your keyboard or click your mouse or trackpad to wake up your Mac.

  If you use more than one screen, and you can see the image on one of the screens, you can also use the preferences monitors to check the connected screens.
  

  Adjust video settings

  If there is no image on the screen, try adjusting the brightness or contrast of the screen. If there is still no picture or image appears torn, or scrambled, try selecting a different video resolution in system preferences. Adjust brightness

  • If you use an Apple Display Monitor, press the key to increase brightness your Apple keyboard. To adjust the brightness of a secondary screen, press Control + F2.
  • If you use a view that is not made by Apple, see the documentation that came with your monitor to see if it includes built-in controls to adjust the brightness or contrast.

  Change your display resolution

  1. In the Apple menu, choose System Preferences.
  2. Click the display icon.
  3. Click default for display. If you see more than one resolution listed, choose a resolution and refresh rate. If the display turns off when you change resolutions, press the ESC key to cancel the change.
     

  If you can not change the resolution of your screen because you see no image, restart your Mac in safe mode to reset the default display resolution.

  If booting safe mode doesn't resolve the problem, reset your Mac NVRAM and SMC to reset the video ports on your Mac to their default values.

  Search for software third display

  If your monitor only works when your Mac is started in safe mode, and related to the software display is installed, check with the developer of the software for updates, or try to uninstall temporarily.
