I have recently upgraded and am finding my iMac won't wake from a sleep state 80% of the time. What do I need to change or do to prevent this?

Hi 02SilverSport,


Try using the power button to wake the iMac.


OS X Mavericks: Using the power button

If you are using a wireless keyboard or mouse, check out this article:


OS X Mavericks: Wake your computer with a wireless mouse or keyboard

And for more generic troubleshooting, try this one:


OS X: When your Mac doesn't sleep or wake

http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5357


where there's a section for "Your computer cannot wake from sleep" and "Your computer is slow to wake from sleep".


Best Regards,
