Yet another question from me...on sleep...

[john_satc]

sorry to bug everyone again with my stpid questions but...im currently downloading a 558mb file of the internet. i have broadband - 2mb, but still my internet is sooooo slow! the download will take an estimaed 14 hours to download! wow! so , heres my question, can i put my iBook to sleep with the download still running - hopefully meaning my download will be done over night ? if not, how do i stop my ibook sleeping so i can leave it downloading over night?
thanks, jon

No, you can't shut your iBook and keep the connection.

You'll just have to leave the iBook open. The screen should shut off but while it's actively downloading something, it shouldn't go to sleep.
If you're really paranoid, go into System Preferences, Energy Saver and set your iBook never to go to sleep.

You could also try Jiggler, which is free
