[QUOTE="Murlyn, post: 8360, member: 184"] Yeah as soon as you close the iBook it will put it to sleep.. and putting to sleep basically means.. everything slows down, basically it's like shutting down your computer without having to bootup again.. take up where you leave off type of thing :) So yeah if you are encoding.. you do not want to close the iBook.. although even if you do.. I don't think it will mess up the encoding, it will just resume where it left off. I know I have done that a couple times when burning backup data onto cd's and it worked out ok. Hmm.. no I havent had that problem.. You do have to remember that you have two types of settings (Power Adapter) and (Battery Power) and you'll need to adjust each according to the settings that you desire. This is really handy to have power profiles since when I have my computer plugged in I would rather my energy settings turn off the monitor after a half hour/hour then slow everything down after a couple of hours.. while when on battery power I would like it to power down after 5-10 minutes of inactivity to preserve the battery. You'll find that under "Settings for:" Cheers! [/QUOTE]
