RE: Question about MacBook Pro Activity with the Lid Closed
Hi Deb, I'm almost positive FileVault will not continue the encryption/decryption process while the computer is asleep. I think the PowerNap technology only handles things like updating content from iCloud, app updates, and Time Machine backups. Apple says the following: In addition to using your computer while encryption is happening, you can sleep, log out and even turn off your computer during this time. Encryption continues when your computer is powered on again. (Source: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4790) Encryption is great peace of mind in case your computer is ever lost or stolen, or in case you want to sell it or give it away. It's honestly pretty easy to use if you take the time to familiarize yourself with the audible beeps (or speech feedback, depending on your machine) that VoiceOver delivers to help you log in. That said, of course there's no obligation to use FileVault if you don't like it, but the interface Is honestly pretty benign once you've used it for a few days.

Re: Question about MacBook Pro Activity with the Lid Closed
I am pretty sure the encryption process would not continue if you allow your Mac to sleep. Even if your Macbook supports PowerNap, that technology only allows certain activities to occur during sleep, like checking for new mail, updating apps, and syncing with iCloud. Why do you want to turn FileVault off? Are you experiencing issues with it? It makes your system quite a bit more secure, so I am definitely an advocate of leaving it on.

Re: Question about MacBook Pro Activity with the Lid Closed
Hi guys I did not know that my Mac was encrypting still when I shut the lid for the night. It went to sleep, and the first thing that happened was it wanted power to continue encryption. I guess it got done when I put the power on because it hasn’t complained any more. I didn’t know what FileVault was, but it sounded important enough to leave alone and say yes to.

Hi yes that is right ! When you open the keyboard Commander there is already some preset options in there! Like right option T [to tell you the time] Right option s [to launch safari] and right option [for mail] And a couple of others! Also when you open VO utilities' in the general heading you need to scroll to the [Allow voice over to be controlled by apple scripts] and check it! this will make the saying the time shortcut work better!
