I have set my Cube up to wake up from sleep (actually start in the energy savings prefs) at 3am and it is also set to go to sleep after 1 hour. My point of that is to make it do maintaince scripts and do backup etc. It should be a pretty forward thing to do, and it wakes up fine but doesn't go back to sleep (but does it, as told, during normal daily use).
Any idea on how to solve this? does it need some user action in order to go back to sleep? could an applescript do the trick?
TIA,
Peter

You could use the energy saver to put it to sleep the same way it wakes up. Tell it to go to sleep at four or five in the morning.
It also might not hurt to try resetting the PMU.

How blind is one allowed to be! I had focused on the other solution (still very strange it doesn't work?!), so I hadn't noticed that shut down wasn't the only option.
Thanks :-)

BTW forgot to ask - how do you reset the PMU? I have only found documentation on apple's site on how to do it on Powerbooks/iBooks?

Works the same as PowerBooks. Control - Command - Powerbutton.
