With a QuickSilver G4 733 running OSX 10.3.9 Panther, I can put the
machine, including hard drives, to sleep from the Apple Menu.
But when I set the System Preferences >Energy Saver >Sleep to any time
other than "Never," this G4 does not go to sleep; harddrives keep
spinning. I do not check the option to put the "hard disk(s) to sleep
whenever possible." The display goes to sleep perfectly at whatever
timing I set for it.
I have gone through a dozen articles at Apple's web site and the
various items available in Finder Help. Thinking that my LAN hub and
router activity was keeping the computer awake, I tested with the
ethernet cable disconnected from the G4. No help there. I have
usually Classic running. I turned it off, still no sleep.
Two other user group members report the same problem. I don't know
what machines they have, but one said that his problem occurs only with
iMovie running. I never use iMovie.
Any ideas here?
Thank you,
Al Poulin
