Does any one know if there is away to get my
G4 1.2ghz iBook (OSX 10.3.9) to be able to run with the lid/cover/ screen in the closed position without it going into sleep mode?
I Ask since I do Live recordings
and often it would be great if I could start recording and then close the cover and stow the iBook away,since I can monitor any clippin levels on my presonus firebox....

I thought I heard that this couldbe possible...

thanx

No, the only eventual solutions I remember of are command line then, but the Jiggler solution (not tested) seemed simpler…

Found Sleepless too (not tested, I've got a G5)

In case, the search on macosxhints, there may be other threads… "sleep ibook" gives some hints that may be interesting but in the middle of sleep bugs of death… Pay attention to the dates, I'd avoid old threads a a lot has changed since 10.2 for example.

There are other options that will allow you to defeat the "reed switch", which is the mechanical component that informs the iBook that the lid is closed and therefore, puts the iBook into sleep mode.

You can check the method out here. However, as stated in this article, there is the possibility to overheat the iBook running in this mode (clamshell mode).

Other than the space savings, what is the reason you wish to close the lid? If it is simply the display, dim the screen brightness to "0" and it will go dark.

Best of luck.

peace.

Another simpler trick in the deaconblue vein is to set a totally black jpeg as the image to display as a screen saver and set the mac to screensaver mode wink.gif

I believe that the Screen Spanning Doctor has an option for allowing the computer to remain awake whilst the lid is closed. Called "clam shell mode".... i think...

This page is also interesting:

But I sold my iBook a while ago for a MacBook Pro, so I can't remember specifics...

Trouble is, as I found out while searching that ibook are not designed for being able to run while closed, on the contrary powerbooks are. So it all ends to dirty tricks in order to have the thrill… wink.gif

hey thanx all
I did find it interesting that apple sez:
iBook (Dual USB): Using Computer With Lid Closed
You should not close the display lid of an iBook (Dual USB) computer while using an external keyboard and monitor.

You should not close the display lid of an iBook (Dual USB) computer while using an external keyboard and monitor. The iBook (Dual USB) computer should go to sleep when the display lid is closed. Under certain circumstances, however, the iBook (Dual USB) may not enter sleep mode when the display lid is closed.

You should not operate your iBook (Dual USB) computer with the lid closed.

Clamshell mode

at
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=88199


Sothe question is will the iBook really overheat?

thanx again
