[QUOTE="lclev, post: 1777741, member: 307555"] Bob is correct - you do not need to let your iMac sleep. I leave my Mac Pro on and just set the monitors to shut off after an hour of inactivity. They use more power - I have two, a 27" and a 24". BUT - if you live in an area where the power goes out frequently - and I do - a good UPS is essential. Actually, I believe a good UPS is essential for all electronics. They even out power spikes, can be set to do controlled shutdowns, provide power so documents can be saved, etc. I still recommend trying the resets I listed above. If you google problems with High Sierra you will find many were fixed after resetting the SMC and NVRAM. Lisa [/QUOTE]
