iMac (24 inch Early 2009, 2.93 GHz Core 2 Duo, Lion 10.7.3) randomly goes sleep. No hot corners, never sleep setting.  It seems it goes to sleep more often when CPU is busy and graphic intensive jobs running (videos, gaming). I cleaned up air ways by vaccume, but it did not help.Â
Temp monitor showed
CPU 55C
power supply 95C
northbridge 89C
graphic processer goes up to 86C
when it went to sleep for no apparent reason./private/var/log/kernel.log says "Previous Sleep Cause: -100"

I set my iMac to go to sleep after 15 minutes of inactivity. Everything worked as it should until I updated Lion to 10.7.3. Now it seems that iMac never goes to sleep on its own. No new hardware installed whatsoever, every settings are the same as before. I even tried by not running any programs, and it still won't go to sleep unless I force it to. It's a mid-2011 iMac with core i5.

They replaced the logic board and powersupply because it was shutting down by itself and only part way. Power still on the USB. When we got it back, noticed we could hear the fans and the system was much cooler. Seems to be working OK, but yesterday, I manually put it into sleep mode. It normally runs all the time, just puts the display to sleep. The fans shut down and the screen went black. So far so good. Then I clicked on the mouse to wake it. OK, but then in about 2 minutes, it went to sleep again. Every time I woke it, it went back to sleep. Had to do a restart to make it work normally again and stay on.

I need to make a PDF file under 3 megabytes. On my old dell computer, I had a program to make the file size smaller to fit a website's requirements. I love my mac and would love to use it better.

But when I do it for the mac app it just starts at the top and most recent - This might seem a crazy thing to ask but is there a way or another twitter client which starts about halfway down and i can gradually make my way up to the top and most recentÂ

Found this issue on many forums, but unfortunately I cannot find a solution. Taking to an apple store for repair is not an option. If I'm going to spend $300-$400 for repair, I might as well purchase a new PC. I am not that attached to this mac, and now with operating issues, I'm even less so. At least with a PC I can ctrl+alt-del and start all over. I was expecting more than 4 years out of a $1200 imac, so if I have to replace repair every few years, I'm thinking I'd rather start with a clean slate for $400 every few years with a new PC. Very frustrated not being able to find a solution online about this problem, seeing that it seems so common.Â
While working on imac and surfing the net, my screen will intermittently go to sleep. I can wiggle the mouse and click it and it will come back on right where I left off, internet connection and all. Once it happens, it continues to happen until I shut down and walk away for a good length of time (overnight). Problem seems to happen when the imac has been running for many hours at a time. I have set up the activity monitor, but I don't know what the numbers mean or what to look for. Â
This initially started happening this past summer, and I thought it was a heat issue, but now that it's happening mid-winter, not so sure. Also, in the summer this seemed to be prompted by streaming online, but now it is just from surfing. Not sure if it would shut down if I was working in Pages or Numbers, as I do so infrequently. Doesn't matter if it's Safari or Firefox and it's not a hot corners/sleep issue. Also noticed my fan runs loud sometimes, but not always. Not sure if it's a related problem. Does not sleep because of fan, no consistency in shutting down, etc.Â

Every few months, my iMac will start up from sleep mode on its own. Why does it do this, and is it something to be worried about? i am not touching the mouse or keyboard or using any remotely connected devices when this occurs.

When my computer goes to sleep it will not wake up, and I have to shut down using the power button on the back and then restart. I called support and they advised me that this only happened when the computer went to sleep on it's opwn but not when you manually put it to sleep, But that proved not to be true. It will not wake up under either situation? The support persontold me to logonto applke and re-install the sytem software which I have done but that did not cure the problem either. I have my preference set to never sleep. I am ar]t a loss as to what to do now as when it goes to sleep or I put it to sleep i sometimes will not start up even after shutting down and restarting.I am on 10.7.2?
