Should iTunes prevent the host Mac going into sleep mode when syncing?
Lengthy syncs between iTunes and my Apple TV are interrupted by my Mac going to sleep. When I wake the laptop, unsurprisingly the sync has stopped.
Am I right in thinking that iTunes usually keeps the computer awake as long as the sync is in progress? If so, what could have gone wrong?
As an interim measure I have set the laptop remain awake when connected to power, but this is not ideal.
If it helps the great minds of the forum, here's my setup:
All software is fully updated across all devices.
Help!
