The reason the light stays on when the computer goes to sleep but only projects black is because it makes it faster to load up.

I, Jakestoner am the one who asked the question, and thank you for the suggestion Morely, but I have already tried that and waited for ten minutes one time and it does not work. Anyone else have the answer? It is a serious problem.

Because there is no input from the computer, and nothing to display. Having nothing else to do, it turns off the lights an just sits there.

How does sleep mode work?

Sleep mode is an energy-saving mode of operation in which all unnecessary components are terminated. Many battery-operated devices, such as notebook computers, support a sleep mode. When a notebook computer goes into sleep mode, it shuts down the display screen and disk drive. Once awakened, the computer returns to its former operating status.


What are some tips for a better nights sleep?

Do not do any strenuous activity before bed as it is likely to give you more energy. A hot bath or a warm glass of milk will help you go to sleep as well as a quiet room with no distractions. I would suggest switching from caffeinated to non-caffeinated beverages 6-8 hours before you want to go to sleep. Remove the TV or computer screen from the room you sleep in, or at least turn the screen so you cannot see it from bed. Wherever possible, block out light and sound, and set the thermostat to a comfortable sleeping temperature.

What do you do when the screen turns black on your iPod when you touch the camera app?

It depends. It could just be out of battery power and you need to charge it, but i doubt it is if you are having difficulties. If the screen will not turn on, even if you press the home button or the sleep button, there is a possibility that you turned it off. To turn it back on, just hold the sleep button until it turns on. If the screen is black with an apple logo, this means that you may need to restore your Ipod. To do this, plug your ipod into your computer, and when the apple logo is there, press and hold the sleep button and the home button until the screen is completely off. Then let go of the sleep button but not the home button and hold it until itunes pops up on your computer. Then it should say something about needing to restore the ipod. Press restore and wait. Voila! Restored ipod. BTW----> Restoring your ipod will delete any information currently stored on your ipod (music, contacts, calender dates, notes,ect...) I Really hope this helped!!!!! :)
