[QUOTE="vale, post: 956343, member: 133995"] If you don't want to install third party SW you can get the Apple wireless mouse or keyboard and enable the "Allow Bluetooth devices to wake this computer" feature. In this way when you close the lid and it goes to sleep if you move the mouse it wakes up with the lid closed and resumes playing iTunes. If instead you close it and drop it in a bag it will remain in sleep mode and be safe. Other app you can use is [B]Sleepless[/B]. [B]Caffeine[/B] is similar, but avoids screen dimming and sleep when the system is unused for a while. [/QUOTE]
