Hey all. Been a happy TS4 user for a bit under two years now on my M1 Pro 14" MBP. Truthfully it made me understand why people get excited about docks - the one cable solution is awesome! But in the last month or so I've had a litany of issues crop up. I don't know how much of it may be due to...
I have just added a Uperfect Portable 18-inch monitor ( aka Ugame K118 / M180J03 ) to my Mac Studio as a second display. It's 2560x1600 and is powered by one USB-C port and receives input via another USB-C input ( Thunderbolt 3/4, USB 3.1 ) or mini HDMI. It's one of those super light, portable...
Using Finder I trying to move about 10k files between folders on a network share, and since it takes so long, I step away from my computer to work on other things.
When I return, the Mac has fallen asleep and maybe a few thousand files have moved, so I have to restart the move.
Is there a...
Hi. I have a Garmin Instinct watch, which I wear 24 hours a day. I have always tracked my sleep in the Garmin Connect app, but now I would like to try using Apple Sleep in Apple Health.
Health is set up to receive sleep information from my Garmin watch, and not my phone, but I’m confused that...
I’m having an issue on macOS where my MacBook Air refuses to sleep or shut down properly. When I run:
pmset -g assertions
I consistently get a system-wide assertion:
PreventUserIdleSystemSleep = 1
pid 119(powerd): "Powerd - Prevent sleep while dis
play is on"
No third-party audio drivers...
I noticed my battery life seems to be worse recently, checking activity monitor is showing Whatsapp preventing sleep.
Just wondering if others are seeing this?
Hi All,
Anyone else having issues with the Screensaver/monitor sleep? Nothing works for me, no matter what I try. I have to manually engage the screensaver using a hot corner. Monitor doesn't sleep at all.
I noticed that my 2021 MacBook running Sequoia 15.4 is waking up from sleep 4+ times a night. It is not for long, but I would still like to figure out what's causing it and prevent this. I turned off WiFi and Bluetooth to try and prevent it but it's still doing it. There is no longer a "Power...
Hi,
Inspired by an October episode of the Accidental Tech Podcast (https://atp.fm/607), I've recently released an app that the hosts were discussing they wanted to exist but currently didn't.
The premise is relatively simple: how can you better understand what impacts your sleep? SleepTag...
I’ve worn an Apple Watch for sleep tracking for several years in and off. One thing I’ve found is that the watch will show that I’m asleep when I know that I’m awake.
For example, if I’m woken up in the middle of the night and it takes me about 20 minutes to go back to sleep, the watch will...
Hi everyone,
I'm new to MacOS and looking for reliable ways to remotely trigger sleep and wake on my Mac for tasks like running a Jellyfin server, file sharing, and Tailscale. I’d like to set this up for both local network (LAN) access and remote access over the internet.
So far, I’ve tried...
I have been having problems with my 2019 MacBook Pro running Sonoma taking excessively long times to wake up. I've been reading about sleep modes and it appears the laptop is set to go into hibernation mode so when it wakes up it takes time to restore RAM from the system disk (an SSD). I found...
Hi everyone!
Is there a way to power down the USB ports during sleep? They seem to only power down during standby (hibernation) which can come many hours later. I have a laptop cooler/stand I put my laptop on. I'd like the fans to turn off when I close the lid and the computer goes to sleep...
Hi everyone!
Does anyone know of a way to have the laptop go to sleep when the lid is closed, but NOT if the display times out from inactivity or when I manually turn it off with a "hot corner shortcut"? Sometimes I don't need the display on but I want it to stay awake,. but I would also like...
I recently notice that my MacBook Pro will not sleep when closing the lid, the display stays on with the lid closed. I only noticed because I put my laptop in my bag fully charged and when I went to use it; it was completely dead.
Here are the specs( I don't know if it matters)

I have a problem with my 2015 MacBook Pro. Every time I wake up from sleep mode, Bluetooth does not work. AirPods and other devices (such as the speaker) do not connect. All Handoff functions also do not work: copy and paste from iPhone, HotSpot, AirDrop, Handoff. Interestingly, unlocking the...
When the iOS 17.3.1 update was pushed out, the only thing I found different was that my iPhone doesn't like to sleep any more.
I cannot find any settings that interfere with sleep. But I can set my iPhone 14 Pro Max on my desk a foot away from me - and screen never goes to sleep. I can put it...
I have an M1 MBA and a Dell P3421WM connected to a CalDigit TB4 dock. Display is connected to the dock via a TB3 cable and the dock is connected to the M1 via a TB3 cable as well. Both USBC.
I run the display at 3440x1140 - however whenever the display sleeps (time varies) and I wake it, a...
Context: My MBP is permanently plugged in in clamshell, using Al Dente to keep charge limit at 70%. USB-C Hub with keyboard and mouse plugged in, bluetooth speakers.

Is it possible to have the MBP sleep whilst in clamshell mode (power always connected) and waking it up with an external mouse and/or keyboard?
If so, how does one achieve automatic sleeping? By turning off the "Prevent automatic sleeping on power adapter when the display is off"?? And if so...
