Imacs go offline when they sleep

Hi,
I have 11 intel imacs and use ARD to admin them but when they sleep they seem to sever the network connection resulting in a communication error when I try to remotely wake them. Also I wanted to look into the use of them as Logic Pro nodes for our main studio G5 but as they sleep the nodes get disconnected.
Anyone know how to disable the network sleep?

As mentioned, your network connection will be dropped when your Macs sleep. There are utilities out there like Wake550 that will allow you to wake your Macs over the network. I have never used it, but have heard good things about it.

PS 10 flagged my photos offline when they haven't moved

Photoshop 10 suddenly has flagged all of my photos as "offline". They have not moved from my J drive. Catalog manager shows the catalog as being on the J drive. However, individual photo properties now show them on the F drive. I have not moved anything. I don't even have an F drive. How do I get Photoshop to understand that the photos are still on the J drive?

Before jumping to a conclusion, let's see your questions:
Why are there 3 records in the Volume table? All of my photos are under a single directory in Windows.
Each time you 'enter' media files in a catalog, the organizer reads the info in Windows explorer to find and record - the drive identification - the full path on that drive - the type of the drive. An internal identifier in the database is created if that drive is not already known. All recorded drives stay in the table, even if the media files are deleted from catalog. By default, the organizer creates two entries in the table even if you don't enter any media. One is of the type database_relative_drive; if no media is present, there is a 'dummy' entry type no_drive.
If you have two drives with the same letter and different serial number or type, they will have separate entries... and the organizer won't know how to interpret the data. That may happen in various situations : you know that if you have a F: external drive and you plug-in other thumb drives before, the Explorer will assign it another letter; or you may have a 'cloned' drive from a drive previously in your computer with another serial number. So, in your case, I can't know why there are 3 records. A screenshot of your volume_table might help.
Is the catalog db fully normalized? That is, is the entry in the Volume table the only place that has metadata about the physical device used for the storage of the photos?
Yes. The record in the volume table is identified by its internal 'id' field.
You can verify that in the media_table : each record (for each media file) show the field 'volume_id' which corresponds with the abobe 'id'. There is no other place to see a drive letter or drive serial number.
What steps do I take to get the PSE Catalog Manager to recognize an existing catalog file? I do not understand the difference between “new” and “convert”.
In your volume_able you should have a record in which:
- the 'id' is the internal drive identifier (the one present in each record of the media_table, as indicated above)
- the drive letter used by the explorer
- the serial number of the drive you have found via the DOS vol command in decimal.
- the type 'built-in drive'
Of course, you should not have twice the same letter or serial, you should delete unwanted duplicated records. All this can be made from the sqlite manager.
The button 'new' creates an empty catalog
The button 'convert' is used if your files and catalogs have not been moved, but you have installed a newer Elements version. The old catalog is read and a converted copy is created.
You are now able to correct the catalog (rather a copy of the catalog not to run any risk) to reflect the present situation. I would not bother now to move the media files or change the drive letter, I would create a working catalog; the rest can be done afterwards when everything is working and you are able to create a backup from the catalog manager.
Modify the last record in the Volume Table:
ID same as existing to maintain referential integrity with other tables.
Description: I will enter “C:”
Serial: the VOL gives the serial as “BAAC-DC6B”. I should enter “47788-56427”. (Should I enter without the hyphen? That is, enter “4778856427”?)
Drive-path-if-built-in: I will enter “C:”
Type: I will enter “builtin-drive”
Use Catalog Manager to point PSE to the catalog now on the C drive. Should I move the catalog to the “default” location? Where is that?
Hopefully by moving to a more traditional configuration I will minimize the potential for confusing PSE (not to mention myself).
What do you think?
You must keep only one good record and delete the wrong duplicates.
- without the hyphen
- to open the organizer with the new catalog on C, simply double click the catalog.pse10db file. The catalog manager will remember the location.
- A catalog (or catalog copy) will work independently from the location of its folder. You can move the folder as you wish. If you want it to be on the default location, simply use the 'move' button in the catalog manager and choose 'accessible to all users' instead of 'custom'.
Once again, you don't run risks in working with a catalog copy. And even if we don't know the reason of the database corruption, the important thing is to get the catalog working.

Why iMac shuts off when in sleep mode? Using latest System (Yosemite)

Can anyone tell me why my iMac 27", running on the latest system (Yosemite), all of a sudden started shutting off when put in the sleep mode?

Try resetting the SMC.
Additionally, look at the log files around the time the system shut down.
You might also take it in for testing/diagnosis.

Images showing offline when they are not - sequence plays fine

I'm using FCE 4.0 and when I open a project that I've been working on for weeks, some of the pictures in one of my directories are showing as offline.
When I go into that bin and click on an offline photo, it shows me the thumbnail and I some of the other pictures which are offline are now visible and other previously visible pictures are now showing offline.
I can play the entire sequence and everything is available and plays fine. I just can't see the photos to add them to my project.
any thoughts?

Maybe I am stupid but if you delete the imagefolder, it will be gone. You can set your default imagefolder: goto Media-> Camera-> Settings-> Use Memory-> Card. You can also backup your card to PC, reformat the card in your phone, because it makes default maps for images, video, audio,.........and then copy your images back to the specific folder.

GW V2.0.4 shows user offline when they are really online?

I have just upgraded our GW messenger from V1 to V2.0.4. I have just one issue with one user(A). user(A) has user(B) added to her contact list but user(B) shows offline even when user(B) is online. I have no problems talking to user(B) nor does anyone else. User(B) also shows that user(A) is online but not vice versa. User(A) always has to wait for user(B) to start a conversation. I have tried deleting, adding user(B) for user(A), i've uninstalled/reinstalled the client and have had no luck. I know something like this was posted a while back but I was wondering if anyone has any ideas/suggestions or even the answer for the fix?

IMac Powers Down When On Sleep Mode?

Hello, I have been using an iMac at work and it just recently started powering down when left idle. This has been a reoccuring problem for a few days now and I would like to know a solution as soon as possible. Thank you.

Somebody? Anybody?

Mail goes offline when computer sleeps.... can I prevent this

I searched and couldn't seem to find an answer for this. When my wife checks her mail in the morning after the computer sleepsshe gets the triangle with the exclamation point.
She will click go online and then she can check the mail.
It seems like when the computer sleeps it loses the internet connection and mail does not realize it has recconected when the computer is waked.
Doesn't do it with mine when but I use wireless.
Not sure if it is a router issue or not, and if so any idea how to fin it.
Thank you
Mike

Try this. Upon waking the computer from sleep. Wait about 20 seconds before doing any network activity like Mail or Safari. Then try it.
When a computer goes to sleep, to the rest of the world, it is the same as being turned off. It's Internet connection is disconnected. It takes a few seconds to re-establish the connection.

Contacts showing as offline when they're online.

Title says it all but today I was chatting with a friend and bam all my contacts go offline some say away but the majority says offline I tried uninstalling and re installing. Tried changing status everything. Is anyone else having this problem? And how do I fix it?

Nothing works anymore as it should with contact status.

If I set my iMac not to sleep, but set hard drives to sleep when possible will they sleep?

If I set my iMac to never sleep, but my Hard Drives to sleep when possible why don't they sleep?

They don't sleep because your Mac is using them (as your Mac is turned on). If they go to sleep, you may damage the external drives because your Mac doesn't unmount the drives first

My ichat buddies always appear offline when i know they are online and I appear offline to them

A couple months ago my ichat was working fine. Then all of a sudden all my buddies appeared offline when I knew for a fact they were online and I appeared offline to them as well. The only solution I have found is to delete each buddy and re-add them again and they magically show up online but after a while, like a couple days, they all appear offline again. I changed the port to 443 and deleted and re-added my jabber account and deleted the ichat.plist but nothing works.
Any help is appreciated!

Hi,
This could be down to the priority that each account and each login can have.
In Messages you can set the Priority that the app (and that account has)
The Earlier iChat apps did not have this setting despite it actually using a Priority.
The iChat versions is set to 25.
This is the same Priority as the web mail page login.
In this case the last login would take the "lead" - you would not always be logged off the other login but the messages sent would go to the last login.
I don't use Jabber enough to say if the 0 in Messages is higher or lower than the 25 in iChat or the web login.
I presume that 0 is in fact null and 25 is the highest that can be set.
Anyway the idea is that you can log in on various devices and use the Priority setting to make one the "first Receiver" if you will.
I have always thought it defaulted to the next device on the next highest priority.
I.e. the Home computer could be left on but a Work computer would have a "higher" priority and take the "lead" and a phone app could be set "higher" still and override thing when you are not at a computer.
I would wonder, based on your comments, whether these Buddies have logins with the same Priorities and when one device logs out the other(s) are not taking over, making them look Off Line.

Clicking sound that the iMac hard drive makes every 10 minutes or so when in Sleep Mode.

My iMac is 2 years old. I have noticed that when I put it to sleep, the hard drive makes a
clicking noise every 5-10 minutes. I had my Lacie hard drive set up for Time Machine, but
the iMac also seemed to be making the Lacie whir every so many minutes, too. I have since
temporariily shut off my Lacie, but the clicking sound persists. It also seems to me that at
times the hard drive also is trying to "run" or activate momentarily.
I never hear the clicking noise when I am using my iMac.
I read many posts about other iMac owners having a similar problem. One "suggestion" was that
the iMac is not really in sleep mode. I don't understand that since I use the Sleep prompt under
the Apple O.S. Icon. I read somewhere else that the clicking is the cooling of metal, or something
like that. That seems a "reach" to me.
Any suggestions (or directing me to a thread that specifically addresses this issue) would be
much appreciated.
In any case, if I need to call Apple Tech (I have 1 year left on my warranty coverage), I would like
to know if they have probably encountered this problem. Also, what would be a good way to explain
the issue, if you can advise me on that.
Thanks!

I have since called Apple Support about the problem. They did not solve it, but did offer to call back. I was unable to be home for the call back. I will call them again, but they did not seem to be aware of any "clicking" problems the iMacs were having.
I timed the clicking noises while the iMac was in Sleep mode; it is every 2 minutes almost consistently. (Not the 5-10 I mentioned in my first post.) Also, it then has a slight "whirring" sound after the "click" or "ping" as if it is trying to process something.
My iMac does not make the clicking/pinging noise while not in Sleep mode.
I have searched the Net and these forums repeatedly trying to find someone who has had a similar "clicking" sound. One fellow suggested his hard drive clicked in Sleep mode because it was looking for a printer. That is not the problem I am having, since all printer jobs have been completed.
If any of you could help me on this or direct me to a thread that addresses the issue, I would appreciate it immensely.
Thanks.

After upgrading to Mountain Lion my 2009 (early 2010) iMac mutes audio when awaking or when it goes to sleep. Anybody else having the problem? My other iMacs are not having that problem. I'm not sure if I am missing an option somewhere or what is going on.

My two iMacs frequently go offline when I have our iPad and two iPhones-5 connected with Airport Express (2nd edition). If I disable WiFi on my three "i" devices no problem. Any thoughts on this?

My two iMacs frequently go offline when I have my iPad and two iPhones-5 connected with Airport Express (2nd edition). If I disable WiFi on my three "i" devices the offline problem stops. Any thoughts on this?

.....doesn't that seems to suggest the modem?
That is what I have suggested....twice now. From posts above:
My opinion would be that it is likely not the ISP, unless you have complete loss of Internet service for all devices at the same time......it is the Comtrend device....
and
I believe that the problem lies with the modem, and not the ISP signal.
Your ISP will likely have a different opinion, though. Please keep us posted on your progress.
