[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1829887, member: 56379"] Depending on how long ago you saw this...and depending on what OS version is or was running...this very well could have been due to automatic Apple maintenance scripts running. These Apple maintenance scripts by default were scheduled to run between 3:15am & 5:30am (depending on the maintenance script running). Thus this could explain the "computer coming on" situation. I think starting with macOS Sierra in 2016...some new "self cleaning" features were added to the macOS...and this either reduced or completely eliminated the periodic maintenance scripts. - Nick [/QUOTE]
