I have downloaded several programs that are supposed to wake your computer from sleep/sound an alarm. I have 10.3.4 ... At first I thought it was the program but I then used Alarm Clock Pro, which is supposed to be a very reputable program and that didn't wake it from sleep through the Wake Computer feature. So I'm thinking it's my OS. Any suggestions?

BTW - I am keeping the lid open.

Thanks

-Phil

Set the wake time through Energy Saver. Shut down, zap the PRAM, and put the computer to sleep after you've looged back in.

Also, plug in the power adapter before putting the Mac to sleep. The Energy Saver settings may not apply if the computer is on battery power--I'm not sure.

If it does wake, then you know it's not the OS.
