Blue Ring Glow?

Post by jamessawle »

Not really a problem, but when the systems are switched off we still get the Blue Glow around the main control knob, not that bothered but just curious if there is a way to switch this off when the systems are off to save the life of the LEDs?

Hi jamessawle,

I believe OS X systems will cut the power to the USB ports when switched off. They may keep the ports powered up in sleep mode, though. Can you confirm you are shutting down the system and still see the blue ring turned on?

Apple has a KB article explaining the USB power characteristics and behaviour of Mac. Power to USB powers should be turned off is the display is set to switch off.
