Hi,

I've noticed for a while now, that if I leave my computer unattended for about 30 - 40 minutes it logs off. If the computer is doing something, such as converting a video or iTunes has requested a log in to a proxy server, when I come back I find a message saying that iTunes has stopped the laptop logging off and stuff. I was wondering how I could stop this happening, because if I want to record something from eyeTV then I need the laptop to stay logged on to let it record.

Thank you very much

Go to System Preferences > Security and un-check 'log off after x minutes of inactivity.'
