• How to set up an external monitor to display cell with lid closed?

  Hello

  I want to configure my new two external monitors to function as an extended desktop MPB lid closed, but am not clear how. What I see as I type this now is the screen MBP as usual, the external monitor to the right has the image of the desktop from my laptop but nothing else, and your screen to the left with the Yosemite stock to the image of the Sun and nothing else. They are connected by a Targus docking station, I guess that properly since both are alive and well.

  What I would do with lid closed is the screen to the left of the screen MBP and see right monitor as an extension of the left. I tried to close the laptop to see it would automatically migrate to the left monitor, but it does nothing.

  Your help is appreciated in advance.

  In system/display Preferences, you can set to mirror or extend.  https://support.Apple.com/en-us/HT202351 if this does not work, you might have a problem with your connection.

  really, there is no reason to start even regularly your cc desktop app.  you only need to run once every 30 (if you have a monthly subscription) to 91 (if you have an annual report) days.

  in preferences, you can disable the desktop application start automatically when you start your computer.

• Satellite Pro A100 - recovery mode sleep with keyboard or media remote

  Hi guys

  I have devoted my Satellite Pro A100 to be a media center which is located under the TV and can play media network and DVD etc..
  It is using Vista.

  I want to set up, is that the lid is closed 24/7 365 days and when I want to use I just press "SLEEP" or power button on the remote control or the keyboard and it fires up ready for action.

  POINT TO THE NOTE. I did it successfully with my OLD Tecra M3. However, was too slow for vista and media center

  However, I put the power settings I want etc, close the cover nothing and activated standby hybrid (favorite sleep).

  Now I CAN put it to sleep with the remote control or the multimedia keyboard. BUT I can wake up?... NO!. I thought about everything... went to the Device Manager and made sure that all the options for the remote control and keyboard and USB receiver are set to WAKE FROM SLEEP. The only thing to wake up it is the power button - which defeats the purpose of it sitting there like a dvd player.

  awake when the remote control and keyboard function very well - I made sure that the batteries are charged.
  I have the latest version of the BIOS and speaking of BIOS there is no option power S3 I noticed, but then there were not on the M3 and it worked very well in terms of sleep and wake up with the IR.

  I come to the forum because even though I know that some older systems will not work with vista - IF the M3 will work - I'm sure that the A100 twice as new and powerful.

  Has anyone had this before - that I missed it must look me in the face.

  Thanks in advance.

  PS Also lately the touchpad played upward IE left and right clickers Exchange feature so one second your work as normal the next minute you click left and right clikc menu appears. Reset the synaptic reinstalled - rebuilt - BIOS - no difference.

  When I worked in management for a large company when it started happening was not good news - it's a bad news?

  Hello

  I m not very well why it doesn t on your Satellite Pro A100 and why it works on M3.
  But the fact is that the Satellite Pro A100 doesn t support the FIR (Fast InfraRed) port and the
  Tecra M3 supports the fast infrared port.

  Maybe this could be the reason why you can not activate the laptop using the infrared remote control multimedia.

• Qosmio G20 - 108 awakening with lid closed

  Hello

  I have a Qosmio G20-108 with BIOS 1.2. I've set a scheduled task in Windows to run at night and wake up the computer to do. This only happens when the cover is open, if it is not closed, the task is not executed. Does anyone know if the reactivation of the BIOS will work if the lid is closed? Update the BIOS to 1.4 make windows work power the machine on the lid closed?

  On an unrelated note, where can you get information about what is in the various versions of BIOS? I'm not used to slapping just the latest BIOS on a machine if I have the problem, I want to know what is in the update, what are the features it has and what suits it contains! An hour to search the net and support of Toshiba pages and I cannot find a thing, except for the file to 1.4 real day.

  See you soon,.

  Looks like everything is clear now

• Qosmio G50 overheats while working with lid closed?

  If I work with the lid closed (i.e. turn on with the remote control) so that I just use two external monitors, the G50 will overheat or like other portable dockable, it's a very happy job like that?

  Does anyone know?

  Thanks in advance.

  Hello

  Why the Qosmio overheating?
  I want to say I put t see a link between overeating and closed or open lid

  The cooling fans are placed at the bottom of the unit and the air clear on the portable side so it s is not serious if the lid has been closed or not

  The laptop should not overheat

  Good bye

• 230 X: the display on two monitors with lid closed?

  My current setup:

  • ThinkPad x 230
  • Docking station series 3 ban
  • EVGA UV Plus + 39 vga box to allow setting up dual monitor

  I have the following problem, I don't know if they are related:

  First question:

  • When I close the lid on my laptop, it stops. I expect it would display Desktop on my two monitors.

  Second question:

  If I'm away from my computer, my screen become white.

  • I tried pressing the keys on my keyboard to wake up my system [does not]
  • I tried to open the lid: computer laptop screen is blank
  • So I have to shut down my computer, open the cover of the screen, and then close the lid and they press the button on my docking station to display Desktop to my two monitors?

  Do you know what causes this problem?

  Moderator edit: matched subject to content.

  1. disable stop option for "lid closed" settings within the app Lenovo Power Manager (Group of event parameters).
  2 could you be more clear. Please? Your laptop is going to sleep several minutes later (5? 15? same?) we let him? And you can not wake him normally?

• Turn off the day before with lid closed

  I use my X 60 with an external monitor (without stand) and I would like to turn off the feature that puts the X 60 to sleep when I close the lid.  Is it possible to disable this feature?

  do not know what operating system used on but in windows 7: Control Panel, power on the left-click options choose what closing the lid, then choose when I close the lid, you want to choose do nothing.  There is a setting for the battery and the other to power.

• NB200 - how to turn on with lid closed?

  I want to fix the netbook on an external monitor and external keyboard and a mouse. in any case, is anyway to turn on the PC without opening the lid?

  Hello

  I think that's not possible. You can connect only on the laptop using the hardware switch!

  More why you close? You can use the internal display as a second monitor. I do the same thing with my mobile phone ;)

• Re: Satellite L500D - speed wireless worsens considerably with lid closed

  Hello

  The last 3 days have been nerve wrecking for me. I am the owner of a Satellite L500 D and at the moment, I decided to connect it to an external monitor, to enjoy a better visual experience, until I have buy a desktop computer.

  Well, day 1, I had problems with the speed of the wireless connection (the laptop is related to the router via a wireless connection only). Physically, what I've done, it is simply connect the monitor to the laptop, while closing the lid, so it won't get in the way. And Yes, I had already checked the 'Status quo' feature in the desktop "when I close the lid of my laptop.

  I went to a speed of 30 Mbpps to love... 1 Mbpps, or even less, so that it becomes almost unbearable for surfing the web, let alone to download all the files. After calling my ISP support line and a subsequent visit by a technician (he's even changed the router), we were convinced that the problem lied in the router, or disruptions in the connections wireless neighbors, microwave ovens, cell phones, that sort of thing. I even thought that the problem had something to do with my wireless keyboard/mouse set that might interfere with the connection because it uses the same 2.4 Ghz band range.

  After spending a lot of time to ruin my head, I suddenly noticed how the speed would increase simply by opening the lid of the laptop. And the surprise... If I just lift the lid a bit (like 10 cm) above the keyboard, I hear a sound of 'connection' and therefore, the connection speed is always high.

  Have you ever had such an experience? Is the antenna (is it located anywhere in the keyboard?) of the adapter that stops whenever I close the lid? Is it possible to permanently program the computer to have the connection all the time?
  Well, it has been an experience painfully education

  Appreciate your comments/solutions

  Paulo

  Hi Paulo

  We speak/write here on laptops and computers laptops are designed for mobile use and all of the material placed in the laptop is also optimized for mobile use. It is logical that wireless antenna must be placed in the book part where it can get better WLAN signal. Because of this key WLAN antenna is placed around the screen. When you open the display WLAN antenna is best placed to pick up WLAN signal.

  If you want to use the laptop as the lace and desktop replacement by with closed side cover I recommend using connectivity LAN only or perhaps some external WLAN as WLAN USB stick antenna.

• Is it possible to change the aspect ratio on the 5 d mark iii in video mode? How is that possible?

  I can see where to change the format of image in Live Mode, but I can't see the options for the movie on the 5 d mark iii mode.

  Hi dhooser!

  Thank you for posting.

  Video Full HD is shot at a resolution of 1920 x 1080, which is an aspect ratio 16:9 fixed.  Standard definition video is shot at a resolution of 640 x 480, which is a fixed ratio of 4:3 aspect.  This cannot be changed as it can for still photo shooting.

• iPhone not charging when the Mac is in mode 'sleep'

  Before the OS X El Capitan 10.11.6 version update, I was able to charge my phone while my Macbook Pro was in mode 'sleep' / with the lid closed. Since the update to the latest version of El Capitan, the power to the USB ports immediately turns off when the laptop goes to sleep. Is it possible to fix this?

  Try a different USB port. There is only 1 USB port can charge the iPhone when the lid closed.

• PC goes mode sleep when the Power Options are set for ever, etc. also can not wake up

  Hi, I read the other posts on this topic, but my problem seems a little different.

  I am running Windows 7 on a Dell desktop computer and I tried to run chkdsk and also the Dell diagnostics that I have some problems hard drive; However, it gets so far and the pc goes into mode 'sleep' causing me even worse problems that chkdsk/diagnoses are halfway through a volume. The pc has done this on and off tension for awhile, but hopefully not when something critical is running, even if it is a nuisance.  I did all the steps recommended here as ensure my Power Options are set, etc., but he always does.

  In addition, when the pc goes to sleep, I can't wake him up by pressing the power button or any key on the keyboard.

  I've been in contact with Dell and they said that it's a software problem.

  Someone can suggest something else I can do (stop) the computer mode 'sleep' and also how to wake him.

  Thank you.

• My hard drive will not close in mode 'sleep'

  My hard drive runs continuously when my iMac 2011 model is put into mode 'sleep' or expires in mode 'sleep'. I guess that's the drive I can hear something quietly spinning inside.and computer is a little warm. It started only in recent weeks. Before that, the computer has been completely silent and gave off no heat. the operating system is El Capitan.

  Hello, Blue Roses,

  Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.

  I see that you have a problem with the hard drive of your iMac running when your computer goes into mode 'sleep'. I know how it is important to make sure you slowed down your drive hard when you have to. I'll be more than happy to help you with this.

  You can activate the option "Put hard drives to sleep when possible" in preferences energy saver of your iMac by following this path: Apple menu > System Preferences > energy saver > put a check mark next to hard drives was able to sleep when possible. Once you have enabled this, test and see if you get the same result with the rotation of the hard drive.

  The following article contains more information on energy-saving preferences:

  Preferences of OS X El Capitan: energy saving

  If you still have a question after that, try to start your computer in safe mode and create a new user to see if you get the same result in both. This can help to identify the problem of the current user and the whole system. The following articles will help:

  OS X El Capitan: start in safe mode

  See you soon!
