    "Only one problem"

    January 3, 2012  |   By GeneLander

    Version: PleaseSleep 2.1

    Pros

    Does what it says

    Cons

    But doesn't wake from sleep on LAN!

    Summary

    I hoped this would solve the problem of Mac Mini Lion Server not going to sleep. It did. But then it would not wake on LAN. Solving this problem would make it perfect!

    "Does what Apple can't - it lets computers sleep"

    September 17, 2011  |   By SonnyBKS

    Version: PleaseSleep 2.1

    Pros

    PleaseSleep lets my iMac 27" i5 actually sleep.

    After 90 minutes on the phone to Apple Care, they still couldn't fix the problem (and I ended up having to reinstall Lion).

    Cons

    A minor gripe: When you open PleaseSleep, there's no indication its open - except for an icon in the menu bar. Only a problem once. (But I'd rather keep my menu bar clean.)

    Only just installed/no other issues identified.

    Summary

    Sure beats spending hours in forums and on the phone trying to fix the sleep problem.

    This software shouldn't be necessary, but it's great that it's available.
