Hello,

Is it possible to prevent the MacBook from sleeping when connected to an external display, lid is closed, and on running battery?

I wonder if the new external display capabilities in Mavericks can help.

Thank you..

MacBook Pro, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.5), (9,2) 2.9GHz i7, 8GB, 480GB SSD
