[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1377129, member: 46727"] It could be several things: 1. Background activity. Use your activity monitor to check and also take a look at your activity logs to see what was going on when it woke up. 2. Since it's an iMac, it's susceptible to AC line hits (power glitches) which will also wake it up. I use an UPS with my iMac which provides backup power in the event of a power failure. It also helps to smooth out any line variations that may occur. [/QUOTE]
