Just installed Mavericks 10.9.2 on Imac and now it wont go to sleep - it shuts down so have to restart repeatedly??

Because there is a flaw in the App Store that gives you an alert you can never ever get rid of telling you to download Mavericks, even though when you click it then tells you your machine is too (I have to say 'darn' here because Apple automatically astersiks out the first word I used that also begins with d and is four letters) old. So you have to live with that little "1 update available" alert, though in reality, you cannot install it. You can imagine that either it is a sinister plot to wear away at you to buy some new hardware, even though yours is working just fine, or that it is a programming error Apple just doesn't care enough about to correct.

When I leave my imac unattended for about 15 minutes, instead of it going to sleep, it shuts off entirely. Is there any way I can have it go to sleep after about 15 minutes of inactivity, without it shutting off entirely?

Macbook Pro shuts down if left unattended instead of sleeping

My mid 2012 macbook shuts down if i leave it unattended for say 15 minutes or more instead of going to sleep. When I click on my trackpad, it turns on automatically but when it's turned on an option shows up regarding the shut down and i report it. help?

Hi yeahhey,
I would recommend resetting the SMC and NVRAM as per these two articles:
Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)

Updating only when using Admin mode (since 3.6) and "ghosting" leaving images of others sites, apps, even pdfs I have opened in a browsing session that you can see when you shut FF down.

I can update FF while in admin mode but when I switch back to my user log-in it says I still need to update and has been this way since 3.6 at least.
FF is also leaving ghost images from other apps as it is shut down you can see, not sure if it is a memory leak or what but it is a little annoying.

Hi there Br0x,
You may want to try rebuilding the iTunes library as an initial troubleshooting step. Take a look at the article below for more information.

You need to force quit Safari, but hitting Command-option-esc, and force quit Safari.

MacBook shuts down instead of sleeping when battery low

Like many people, I had the infamous MacBook sudden shutdown problem where my MacBook (original model) would suddenly shut down wihtout warning regardless of if it was running off battery or AC adapter. I took the MacBook into the Apple store, they did their magic, and two weeks later an updated MacBook was shipped to me, free of the problem. I also applied the firmware update when it came out.
Now I have a new problem...it's that the MacBook doesn't seem to want to sleep when the battery gets low. Instead, it will suddenly shut down without warning. In the past, I seem to recall that it would give alerts saying that my power was low, and eventually force itself to sleep. However, now the battery can be as high as 15-20% and the MacBook will shut down. This never happens when the battery is not on the low side, so I'm wondering if this is a problem with the MacBook guaging how much power it has left. Sometimes, I notice that when I plug it in and reboot, the battery says it is at 0%, even though it clearly was not prior to the shutdown (though that didn't happen just now when it shut down - when I rebooted after connecting the AC adapter, it was at 15%).
I tried resettting the SMC firmware, which seems to help transietly, but the problem recurs. 90% of the time I use my computer plugged in, so that's why I've not noticed it much

The same thing happened to me last night -- the Macbook shut down because of low battery instead of sleeping, and it gave no warning messages at all as the battery power got low.
I never had the sudden shutdown problems, though.
I also checked the battery capacity with CoconutBattery, and it reported that the Max Battery Capacity was 4105 mAh, which is only 78% of the battery's original max capacity. Today, CoconutBattery reports that the battery's max capacity is 5035 mAh (96% of original capacity), which is more reasonable for a laptop less than a year old.
Perhaps resetting PRAM or the Power Management Unit could solve this problem.
Any experts out there with a solution?
MacBook Mac OS X (10.4.8)

I don't think my computer is completely shutting down. I think it is only going into sleep mode. When I hit the power button, it turns off immediately instead of shutting down.

I don't think my Mac Pro is completely shutting down. When I hit the power button, it just turns off immediately instead of going through the normal shut down procedures. I heard that I should try resetting the SMC, which involves removing the power cord. However, when I remove and replace the power cord, it turns on automatically, so I can't even properly reset that to see if it is the issue. Is this probably a power supply issue?
Actually, in case this information helps... The computer went into sleep mode the other day, and would not come back. This is a work computer that I use for our photography business, and at this point I am just trying to run it as a drive to get the photos onto our new computer, but this issue is keeping us from doing so. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Try a SMC reset.

Macbook shuts down when low battery instead of going to sleep

Hi
Well basically my laptop shuts itself down instead of going to sleep when my battery gets low. I also do not get the low battery message. My macbook will usually shut down when it gets to approximately 6% of battery life. What should I do?
Thanks
Sarah.

Have you done the battery update? You might also try to reset the SMC and/or PRAM.
If it doesn't work you may need a new battery. The original core duo batteries have had an extra year added to their warranty so even if your computer is not covered the battery is. My MacBook was doing the same thing except at 28%. Apple replaced my battery and it works fine now.
If you call Apple be polite but firm some people have had trouble from some of the reps. Mine went smoothly I had a new battery in 3 days.

IMac shuts down itself (or log off) when I leave it even if working

My iMac shuts down itself when I leave it for a few minutes even if working, just as example, when rendering a movie. Every time I leave the computer for more than 30 minutes, I come back and I find the first screen. (actually I don't know if the iMac shuts down or just log off)
Anybody knows ?
Thanks
Max

Hi Max
Welcome to Apple Support Communities
There are two levels of sleep, Display Sleep and Computer Sleep.
Go to: Apple > System Preferences > Energy Saver > and set Computer Sleep to Never and Display to Sleep after 10 or 15 minutes. That way the Computer will stay awake, but the Display will Sleep if your not sitting there doing something on it.
Also if you want to disable the password after Computer Sleep, go to System Preferences > Security > General and uncheck the Require password box.

Hi,
This is mostly about what is called Away as a Status and setting an Away Status Message when going Idle.
Idle happens when there has been no Keyboard or Mouse input for 10 mins.
(read as for any Input device like Trackpad, Graphics pad, Trackball etc)
The Bottom section of the General Section of the iChat Preferences is abouut what happens when you go Idle. (The Orange Arrow and Text in the pic Below)
(Your Status indicator will go Amber)
Some of this does depend if you have Set "Block others for Seeing me as Idle " in the Accounts section > Account Info Tab on AIM Logins.
It is also linked to Fast User Switching (your Mac User Account could go Idle whilst you are Logged in as another Mac User Account).
The Blue Arrow and Text points out you can make sure iChat stays at the Last Status (And Message) you used on Quit (The default is for this to be Ticked and iChat to change to Available).
The Red Arrow and Text is about whether you appear as Fully Off line on Quit and Sleep.
On Quit iChat does not fully log you out of the AIM Servers.
You will appear as Off Line to your Buddies but the AIM servers will keep Off Line Messages for you (well, if you have never replied "NO" to the first Off Line IM you ever got)
However it does seem that in certain Combos of these settings that you can "Seen" by your Buddies as Away rather than Off line.
Picture of General Section of Preferences
If you add in to this mix a shorter time than the Idle time to make the computer go to Sleep then you can also create other "states" as well.
So...
In it's default settings:-
1) iChat will always set you to Available on Launch.
2) At 10 mins of no input you will go Idle (Amber)
3) For Fast User Switching you can set iChat to go Off Line or to Go "Away" (A Status Message setting).
(It has been so long I forget what the Default was)
4) iChat is set by default to show you going Idle (See the Accounts section of the Preferences)
5) If you specifically set an Away Status (or Message) then iChat will do whatever is set in the bottom part of the General Section.
6) Sleep will put you Off Line and the "When I Quit iChat, Set My Status to Off Line" option will kick in
The Default is for this to be Unticked.
There is no setting to create going to Away if left alone.
I am not entirely sure on this one though as I think it can be created via "Second Pass" things.
Note:-
Example of Second Pass.
Go to the View Menu and the Sort Buddies option.
If you sort by First Name then the Buddy list is likely to Reorganise itself based on the Address Book Entries.
If you now Sort by Availability it will organise those First Names by Availability rather than reverting to what was set before.
(Screen Names Only Buddies will appear alphabetically in any list)
Now repeat by Sort by Last Name then Availability and you will see that the list is not in the same order as First Names and Availability.
At this point I am not sure exactly what you meant.
The Title bit implies that Sleep was/is getting in the way.
The actual question details leave me wondering what you think you have set iChat to do ?

MBP unib. 17" shut down instead of sleeping (also when plugging magsafe)

Hi All!
I've this problem.
When i get the system message that the battery is running out and i wait for it to discharge sometimes the MPB just shut down without apparently sleep, but when i turn it on the screen shows it went in hibernation.
Other times it goes and still in safe sleep but when i plug the magsafe it shut down immediately and i have to reboot it from hibernation every time.
Is there any way to fix this myself or i have to send it to support?

Calibrate your battery and see whether that makes a difference:

I tried but apparently nothing happened.
the calibration steps are:
_Plug in the power adapter and fully charge your PowerBook's battery until the light ring or LED on the power adapter plug changes to green and the onscreen meter in the menu bar indicates that the battery is fully charged._
_Allow the battery to rest in the fully charged state for at least two hours. You may use your computer during this time as long as the adapter is plugged in._
_Disconnect the power adapter while the computer still on and start running the computer off battery power. You may use your computer during this time. When your battery gets low, the low battery warning dialog appears on the screen._
_At this point, save your work. Continue to use your computer; when the battery gets very low, the computer will automatically go to sleep._
*At this point my macbook saves ram on disk for hibernation and shuts down itself imediatly after. Or in best cases it stays in a "can't wake" sleep for an hour or two and if i plug magsafe while in this state it shuts down...*
*Anyway i also did the last 2 steps:*
_Turn off the computer or allow it to sleep for five hours or more._
_Connect the power adapter and leave it connected until the battery is fully charged again._
And again, when i leave the mac on battery power after the warning dialog the insane behavior occurs every time.
Can't figure out why my battery seems not to handle the 5 hour forced sleep it should.

I have iPhoto 08 and have been happy with it. Don't want to upgrade. But suddenly, when I click on an event, instead of all the photos, I just get one- enlarged- and cannot move to the next one. The photo just jumps up or down. How to solve?

I have posted "submit" twice and keep getting requests to submit again. Now being asked to write a summary! Here we go. I have iPhoto 08 and am happy with it. Don't want to upgrade. But suddenly when I click on an event, instead of getting all the photos, I just get a large version of one photo and cannot move on to the others. The right arrow will not move it and the photo just jumps around.

Note the slider bottom right of the iPhoto Window. Drag it left.
