What is "Deep Sleep?"  All I've got on 10.4.2 is "Sleep."



Momentarily depress your main power switch, which should place the platform into "Deep Sleep"

Don't hold it for very long, because then it will power-off.



Selecting Sleep under the Apple Menu will also put the system in Deep Sleep (usually, your system may vary).

Apple says "When you select the Sleep command in Mac OS (or when the computer goes to sleep as a result of Energy Saver settings), as many components as possible will enter a low-power mode. If all hardware components and connected peripherals are in low-power mode, your computer is in deep sleep. However, not all hardware components and peripherals are capable of running in low-power mode. If one or more hardware components or peripherals does not enter a low-power mode, your computer may simply sleep."

Basically, all PowerBooks, iBooks, Power Mac (AGP Graphics) or later, and iMac (Slot Loading) or later, can deep sleep. Apple Article #106790 explains it in greater detaii.

Well I defiantly don't like what Apple has done in Security Release 2005-007 Rev. 1 so I guess that I'll archive and reload OS X. Then I'll get the Security Releases' one-by-one and not select the combined up-date the is offered. And I'll stop at Release 2005-006

My question is what/why is Apple fooling around with Deep Sleep in a Security up-date?

Since I have OS X 10.2 loaded on another drive and have re-booted to that drive I know that my "Deep Sleep" problem isn't a hardware problem.

So I waste another couple of hours reloading OS X, at least I'll be happy.
