[QUOTE="pm-r, post: 1696039, member: 175845"] I'm just reading about El Cap/n's Energy Saver preferences (I don't have it installed) and thinking as I have my evening red wine, and my brain wondered when I read this: "[I]Prevent computer from sleeping automatically when the display is off Prevents the computer from going to sleep when the display sleeps[/I]." OK, so my questions is — so how do you know or how are you checking that your iMac [I][B]is NOT staying awake after monitor goes off[/B][/I]. Sure going to be hard to see of tell with a black screen I'd say… ;) Now, where did I put my large glass of red wine…???? That would be a REAL problem… O:) [/QUOTE]
