Late 2012 Imac Questions.

[streetfoldsfive]

So I have a few quick questions.

1.When I wake up my iMac from Sleep it always displays a white blank screen instead of my wallpaper. How can I fix this.
2.When I wake my iMac up It seems to take quite a bit of time connecting to wifi. I do not know if this is a problem with my iMac or my wifi. Anyway to check?
3. Is it bad to have an air conditioner plugged into the same power strip as the iMac? (Have not done it yet but, might need to.)

Thanks!

I kno 10.8.4 connects to WFi after sleep much faster than 10.7.5. What version of OS X are you running?

An air conditioner should not be plugged into a filtered power strip or a small UPS. Also, depending on how much power the air conditioner draws, you may need to find an outlet on its own circuit breaker.

And if you have an unfiltered powerstrip, make sure it's rated for the power draw of everything you have plugged in to it.
