I’m used to having El Capitan on my previous 27 inch iMac where under the sleep settings I had the option to turn off the display of the iMac after “X”amount of minutes and a separate setting right under it to put the iMac to sleep after “X” amount of minutes. Now that I got a new 2019 iMac with OSX Mojave I no longer see such sleep settings, there’s only a setting to turn off the display after an X amount of minutes and I’m assuming Apple basically merged both settings into that one settings? If I set the display to turn off after 10 minutes which will mean the computer will also go to sleep after 10 minutes Which is not something I want to do because sometimes I walk away from the computer for more than 10 minutes yet I wouldn’t want the Mac to go to sleep after 10 minutes and that will result the iMac to go to sleep and wake from sleep way too many times however I’d like the Display to turn off after 10 minutes. This is such a terrible choice on Apple’s end to merge these 2 settings.
I see the prevent iMac from going to sleep when the display is off but that will mean that the iMac will not go to sleep if I enable that setting and I’ll need to manually put my iMac to sleep every time or perhaps set a sleep schedule
The “put hard disks to sleep when possible” is off as I was never a fan of this setting since I became a Mac user 15 years ago.
What are you Sleep settings set to on Mojave?
