Is there any way to configure Leopard to automatically wake up at SEVERAL times during the day?
Right now, I have my laptop set up so every morning it does the following things:
1) 6:30 am - computer automatically wakes itself up (via System Preferences)
2) 6:35 am - cron job kicks off that runs some Applescript to check for new podcasts
3) 6:40 am - cron job kicks off that sends new podcasts to iPhone
4) 6:45 am - computer puts itself back to sleep (also via System Preferences)
5) 7:00 am - I get up and phone is ready with latest podcasts
What I would like to do is keep that working like it is and also have the computer run through the same sequence right before I get home from work, so that by the time I arrive home from work, I can plug my phone in, sync the phone up and not have to wait for more stuff to download.
The problem is I can only set up one time via System Preferences to automatically have the computer wake itself up. Any ideas?
