Computer Keyboard Not On During Sleep

5 stars! Stable and very easy to adjust level with slider on.

This Zagg keyboard has cut out for power button which is very nice! (Improved over a previous Zagg for a different keyboard. I did have to figure out about the keyboard going to sleep and to FIRMLY put ipad in slot to wake it up

I would like to start by saying that the thank you card inside the box was a very nice touch. Bravo. All that I wanted was a keyboard where the keys themselves light up. -not the back of the keys-. The reason I wanted this is because my apartment is very poorly lit. I initially contacted best buy. I did my best to explain to them what I was looking for. It is possible that I did not explain my specifications correctly. They might of gotten stuck on my statement that I did not want one of those rainbow light up keyboards, which seem to be trending right now. During that call, I did not initially consider things like how blue LED lights can impact sleep patterns (lots of science on that. look it up). But this keyboard lets you switch back and forth between blue and red (red helps with sleep). And also purple (which is just fun!) The letters are also large. I am young but I do not have the best vision. Like I said, this keyboard is exactly what I wanted.

This is a great keyboard for general purpose usage, and image editing. The keys are large and easily visible, they also feel good to push, not sponge-y but not loud and click-y either. I didn't think I'd enjoy the LED backlight for the keys, but I actually have grown to LOVE it; it's a big help when in low light areas. Only thing that could be improved upon, while it does have shortcut keys for volume, media, and some web browsing, there isn't a Sleep shortcut key (unless you re-map it). A small gripe, but I find Sleep to be more useful than web shortcuts.

During this pandemic, my daughter's old computer went down and she needed one asap for remote classes. I called B&H and within three days a new laptop arrived! The machine is flawless, the service professional and the whole transaction was seamless. Couldn't be happier!

I had a 10 year old APC UPS connected to my computer. During a recent power outage my computer immediately turned off indicating that the battery wasn't supporting the computer. I looked up the UPS on the B&H web site, order it and it's the exact replacement. We had a very short outage yesterday and the computer kept running. Nothing spectacular. Just what it should do.

This is the perfect solution for keeping your computer from going to sleep or kicking on the screensaver due to inactivity. No drivers needed and no trace of its use at all. Just a handy dandy gadget.

I love these hard drives, I have a 12T and 18T. They work really well with my new MacBook Pro. At first, when the computer would go to sleep, they would sometimes dismount and then when the computer would wake up they would remount, but I'd see that message that they were not dismounted properly. Tech support recommended two changes in the system preferences, and now they work well. (The settings they recommended were under Battery, then Power Adapter, Uncheck "Prevent computer from sleeping automatically when display is off and Uncheck Put hard drives to sleep when possible.) The drives are fast and smooth. I love the cables they come with, and I love the blue case. I used to buy G-Drives because I thought they were the best. These are a great replacement. I was impressed with the recommendation of Mike Bomich of Carbon Copy Cloner. Theses hard drives really are the best kept secret, as another reviewer wrote.

The wired trackball did not wake up after the computer went to sleep and I had to unplug it from the USB hub. It was driving me insane. I searched and found many messages about the problem but no solutions that worked for me! I talked to the Kensington phone help service and they could not help. Finally I found out by trial and error that turning off (unchecking) the When the display is sleeping and When the screen is locked in System preferences: Notifications: Do Not Disturb solves the problem. I am running the MACOS 11.4 and the latest Kensington software.

This is the second Zagg Case/Keyboard I have owned. It’s the only keyboard that I have found that allows me to type as I would on a full sized computer keyboard.
