How to shut off power nap feature on MBP 2010

This may be a weird one. I have a MBP 6,2   Apple did replace the MB last fall (2013) due to a video issue, but it still ID's as a 6,2
I have a 512 GB SSD in it, running 10.9.1  I bought this 15 inch MBP in January of 2010.
Here's the problem. It receives mail and notifications, etc. when it is asleep. My preferences panel, under Energy, has no Powernap box. Powernap does not exist on this machine as a preference. Is there another way to stop this? As far as I have searched, powernap should not be supported by this machine.

a MacBook Pro made in 2010 does not have Powernap.  Are you sure it is actually going to sleep?  Does the sleep light indicator pulse?

    You seem to have found the right setting. From my notes:
    Add the following line to $ORACLE_HOME/search/webapp/config/search.properties and then restart oc4j:

    Maybe you didn't restart oc4j (using "searchctl restart")?

  • Will I be able to use the power nap feature on my MBP 13inch 2012?

    I have a MBP 13 inch that i just bought in mid january and I can't find the power nap feature on the energy saving options. I have read some posts saying I might not be able to use it and some others saying that i will need an update for the firmwire (or something like that, sorry i'm not a computer expert). Is there anyone who can actually tell me if i'm actually going to be able to power nap?
    Thanks a lot in advance.

    It's supported in Mid 2011 or Mid 2012 MacBook Air and MacBook Pro with Retina, so you can't

  • Is there going to be a firmware upgrade for mountain lion customers that have a Macbook with a soild state drive so we can use the Power Nap feature?

    Is there going to be a firmware upgrade for mountain lion customers that have a Macbook with a soild state drive so we can use the Power Nap feature?

    here: http://www.apple.com/osx/whats-new/
    "Power Nap requires a Mac notebook with built-in flash storage. May require a firmware update."
    We have to wait for the Firmware-Updates. Some are already here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5394
    And I am shure, that you will need for Power Nap one of the newer Macs with SSD from 2011 and 2012.

  • Can't find how to shut off File Transfer Mode with...

    I've spent the better part of two hours searching the Internet for information on how to turn off File Transfer Mode since my phone started refusing to connect to my home computer, today.
    The pdf user's guide doesn't say how to find it.  I've been digging through the menu on the phone trying to find anything that resembles File Transfer Mode so I can click it off.
    The other FAQ and discussion groups I've located are irrelavent as the information they contain doesn't transfer to my Nokia 820 (they suggest options which don't exist on my phone).
    Please, where does one start looking for File Transfer Mode on this phone so they can shut it off, and why isn't that information printed in the troubleshooting documents and self help files for these phones?
    I connect through the USB cable to my PC.  I have downloaded and installed Nokia PC Suite v.7.1.180.94 this morning in hopes that it would fix the connectivity problem, but unless I can get File Transfer Mode shut off somehow, my new phone's going to wind up being useless.
    Nokia Lumia 820, Windows 8 phone
    HP Pavilion Slimline s52021, Windows 7 Home

    have you searched these forums and tried a soft reset (pressing the volume down and power buttons together until the phone vibrates)? Bear in mind that no, Nokia Suite, or Nokia PC Suite do not work with Windows Phone 8 devices at all, only the Windows Phone app does.
    See if other devices connect to your PC, and try other USB ports.

  • Shutting off power strip when not watching television

    Before I subscribed to FIOS I always shut off my power strip on my plasma television to save money on my electric bill.  I continued to so, but shortly after I subscribed to FIOS,  a technician had to give us a new box.  My son is guessing we needed a new box because of shutting off the power strip.  My electrical bills are considerably higher now. 
    Do you think we will have problems if we shut off the power strip when not using the television?
    Thanks!

    The only ptoblem with shutting off the power strip is how long you have to wait for the box to reboot when you turn it back on. Also most of Verizon's updates occur at night while you are sleeping.
