Close lid without sleeping?

[Stang68]

Hey everyone,

So I want to know if it is possible to close the lid of my MBP without putting it into sleep mode. No, I do not plan on hooking up anything external so that is out of the question.

There has to be another way!

Thanks!

Don't know if this is what you're looking for.

Hmmm...that Caffeine program had potential but it looks like that only works for when the lid is open. I dont think there is an answer to my problem. 🙁

I've been using that program for quite a while. Works perfect!
