My iMac is not sleeping properly(any help is welcome Thank you)

Ok heres the thing I had my mac on computer sleep for an hour and my display sleep for 30 minutes originally. I noticed that when I was asleep it turn on in hte middle of the night. So i started messing with the timers and putting it on 10 minutes and it would not sleep and if it did it would wake up like 10 minutes all of a sudde. I put my browser on a site does not have videos or anything that will wake it up. I've tried an SMC reset and everything. I've tried pmset -g to see whats keeping it awake and nothing. Right now i have my computer sleep and display sleep on 5 minutes but thats really too short. I dont have any applications running I think. My computer went to sleep on the 5 minutes but when i increase the setting it wont sleep. Any help will be appreciated. Thank you. Im not meesing with it anymore till I get any suggestions. My Mac OS X 10.6.8
Please help, the waking up is annoying.

    Hi Naren,
    When I double-click on this data type from the ABAP editor, it takes me to the definition screen.I wish I could put screenshots in this message but I don't know how. Anyway, the definition says it is a "table" type. There are four tabs underneath - Attributes, Line Types, Initialization, and Access Key. Under "Line Type," the properties are as follows:
    Predefined Type
      Data Type: STRING
      No. of Characters: 0
      Decimal Places: 0
    Thank you in advance for your help.

  • HT6150 Single press of Power Button does not put my MacBook Pro to sleep after this update! Do I need to change anything in the settings? Any help please? Thank you!

    The title says it all! After installing the new Mavericks update, I cannot put my MacBook Pro to sleep after a single press of the Power Button like before. Does it have something to do with this update or my MacBook Pro? Or do I have to change something in Settings?
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Send your opinion to Apple.
    But remember that there are others.
    A moment is a medieval unit of time equal to 1.5 minutes or 1/40 of an hour. This reckoning is derived from the work of Bartholomeus Anglicus, writing in 1240 that each hour was divided into four points, each point into ten moments, each moment into twelve ounces, and each ounce into 47 atoms.
    In modern English it usually refers to "a short period of time",[2] the exact length remaining ambiguous.

    Windows 7 compatible drivers for the PIXMA MX882 can be downloaded from the Canon USA website.  The following link will take you to the Support and Drivers page for the PIXMA MX882:
    PIXMA MX882 Support and Drivers page
    Once on the initial download page for your printer, please do the following:
    1.  Verify that the operating system detected in the "OPERATING SYSTEM" drop-down menu is correct, and if it is not, please click the drop-down menu to select your operating system.
    2.  Next, please click on the red arrow next to the "DRIVERS" section and click the MP Driver file.  When you do, another page will appear giving details of the file you are about to download will appear.

    To download the associated software for the printer, please follow the steps above, except for you will want to click on the word "SOFTWARE" instead of "DRIVERS" in Step 2 to display the software for download.
    Hope this helps!

  • MacBook Pro NOT sleeping properly anymore, and getting hot.

    My MacBook Pro does not sleep properly anymore, and gets really really hot, anytime I send it to sleep either by closing it or by selecting "sleep" from the menu. It also loses all its battery really fast while on this state (even faster than while being awake and being heavily used).
    It started a while ago only, or at least it was not there from the begining. I had never before had to put off a MacBook Pro, except while flying... I always just close them and they sleep after a few seconds; BUT I can not do like that anymore with my new MacBook Pro... I have to save, close and shut down... then turn on, open my apps, and open my files... its not something to be happy of... I'm very sad with this problem and I have been unable to find the reason for the sudden change.
    Please I need help with this.

    An additional detail I forgot to mention:
    Everytime I tell my MBP to sleep, or just close it, the computer does not seem to go off (because of the levels of the sound of the HD and of the fan), though the screen goes off correctly.
    Now, the strange part is that everytime I "wake it", the screen goes on immediately, asking for my password, and after inputing it correctly the screen goes COMPLETELY OFF for 2 seconds, before "coming back normally".

  • HT4623 The APP application on my iPad does not function properly - any downloads requested immediately fail and send me back to the main iPad screen.  Any suggestions on how to fix this - all software has been updated to iOS 5.1.1 and no other updates are

    The APP application on my iPad does not function properly - any downloads requested immediately fail and send me back tot he main iPad screen.  Any suggestions on to hoe to fix this?  The software has been updated to iOS 5.1.1, and no furthe updates are available.

    This is my boilerplate response when app downloads are stalled or in the "waiting" mode. There are a bunch of things here to try.
    Tap on the "installing" icon and see if you can pause the install, then tap on it again in order to resume the install.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - a song or podcast .... if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. Only one thing can download and install at a time on the iPad so that could be what is causing the problem.
    If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
    Settings>iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Go back to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Sign in and see if the install resumes.
    If all else fails, download the updates or the apps in iTunes on your computer and then sync the content to your iPad.

  • I have a VI and an attched .txt data file. Now I want to read the data from the .txt file and display it as an array in the front panel. But the result is not right. Any help?

    The problem is in the delimiters in your text file. By default, Read From Spreadsheet File.vi expects a tab delimited file. You can specify a delimiter (like a space), but Read From Spreadsheet File.vi has a problem with repeated delimiters: if you specify a single space as a delimiter and Read From Spreadsheet File.vi finds two spaces back-to-back, it stops reading that line. Your file (as I got it from your earlier post) is delimited by 4 spaces.
    Here are some of your choices to fix your problem.
    1. Change the source file to a tab delimited file. Your VI will then run as is.
    2. Change the source file to be delimited by a single space (rather than 4), then wire a string constant containing one space to the delimiter input of Read From Spreadsheet File.vi.
    3. Wire a string constant containing 4 spaces to the delimiter input of Read From Spreadsheet File.vi. Then your text file will run as is.
    Depending on where your text file comes from (see more comments below), I'd vote for choice 1: a tab delimited text file. It's the most common text output of spreadsheet programs.
    Comments for choices 1 and 2: Where does the text file come from? Is it automatically generated or manually generated? Will it be generated multiple times or just once? If it's manually generated or generated just once, you can use any text editor to change 4 spaces to a tab or to a single space. Note: if you want to change it to a tab delimited file, you can't enter a tab directly into a box in the search & replace dialog of many programs like notepad, but you can do a cut and paste. Before you start your search and replace (just in the text window of the editor), press tab. A tab character will be entered. Press Shift-LeftArrow (not Backspace) to highlight the tab character. Press Ctrl-X to cut the tab character. Start your search and replace (Ctrl-H in notepad in Windows 2000). Click into the Find What box. Enter four spaces. Click into the Replace With box. Press Ctrl-V to paste the tab character. And another thing: older versions of notepad don't have search and replace. Use any editor or word processor that does.

  • I was trying to sync my 120GB iPod Classic earlier and it said it couldn't sync as the iPod disk could not be "read" or "written to". I now can't get anything onto my iPod, and I was wondering if it is a hard drive problem? Any help appreciated. Thanks.
