Computer-to-Mac — Sleep Mode | Secondary Mac
If your secondary Mac isn’t going to sleep while using Luna Display, try adjusting these macOS settings:
Enable Sleep Mode on Your Secondary Mac
macOS Ventura or later:
- Go to Apple Menu > System Settings > Battery > Options...
- Uncheck: "Prevent automatic sleeping on power adapter when the display is off."
macOS Monterey 12:
- Go to Apple Menu > System Preferences > Battery > Power Adapter.
- Uncheck: "Prevent your Mac from sleeping automatically when the display is off."
Disable Exclusive Fullscreen Mode
Disabling Exclusive Fullscreen Mode allows you to switch between macOS and Luna Display, making it easier to put your secondary Mac to sleep.
- Quit Luna Display on your primary Mac.
- Open Luna Secondary on your secondary Mac.
- Click the Luna Display menu (top-left corner) and select Preferences.
- Uncheck: "Exclusive Fullscreen Mode."
- Quit and reopen Luna Secondary for changes to apply.
- Once Luna is running again, press Command + Tab to switch back to macOS and manually put your secondary Mac to sleep.
If Sleep Still Doesn't Work
If your secondary Mac still won’t sleep, try closing Luna Display on both devices when not in use.
