Re: Sleep during upload
Many thanks for that Ronni, now I see it all!

If a program does not do this, then the system may halt its activity and go into sleep mode regardless of what the program is doing. http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13727_7-57503027-263/troubleshooting-sleep-in-os-x/ Cheers, Ronni Sent from Ronni's iPad4 On 08/07/2013, at 11:46 AM, Severin Crisp sevcr...@westnet.com.au wrote: Thanks for both those two suggestions, Ronni.

Hi Severin, Change your setting in System Preferences Energy Saver - Computer Sleep - to 'Never'. Change it back to what setting you wish after uploading.
