[QUOTE="wyager, post: 1312092, member: 195253"] With filevault enabled, the maximum amount of time you can let the computer stay "unlocked" after going to sleep is one hour. You can also not enable automatic login. However, I only want filevault security when my computer is off, and if my laptop gets stolen and the thief can't log in, none of my tracking software will work. Is there any way to force automatic login enable or increase the number of hours before it locks? Maybe a plist or something? [/QUOTE]
