I just migrated over all my stuff from an iMac (bought earlier this year) to another just bought this week. But the new one has no choice to put the computer to sleep. Just wondering what's up with this and why I don't need to put this one to sleep ever. It is a bump up from the other one (faster processor, & graphics card), but still running the latest version of ML.
Thanks
iMac, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.5)
It does have that option, chances are you simply are not looking in the correct place. Please navigate to System Preferences - Energy Saver. It will look similar to:
That's what I'm saying - on the new iMac this does not look like this it looks like this:
OK then put the display to sleep. On my system I have using this practice for 7 years and have NEVER had an issue. I see your display is set to sleep after 1 hour, you can adjust it as needed. If you still want to choose sleep then download and install the 10.8.5 combo update and re-try. You can find that update by clicking OS X Mountain Lion Update v10.8.5 (Combo)
no "computer sleep" on new iMac running Mountain Lion
