FAQ's - My PowerBook Won't Sleep When I Program It To, Why? |

|

If you've attempted to schedule a little nap for your PowerBook you may have noticed that occasionally it refuses to go night-night at the time you've designated in the Scheduled Wakeup & Sleep panel within the Energy Saver control panel. Here's why:
The software that controls this function won't allow your PowerBook to snooze if it thinks you're busy doing something. What this really means is that if you're working on your PowerBook within a few minutes of its scheduled nap time, the PowerBook will wait for 20 minutes of inactivity before it catches its forty winks. Therefore, if you really want your PowerBook to blink out at a particular time each day, make sure that you stop using it (and that no background applications are using it) 20 minutes before it's scheduled to snooze. |
