	Sep 25 2007	MACSWEEP It does work. But, once it is used, regular Sleep command from Apple Menu no longer functions for regular Sleep, it only works for hibernation. How do I disable this to get back to regular Sleep? Apparently this is possible, but even though I select regular Sleep from within the application, it still hibernates when I select Sleep from the Apple Menu. (Version 1.0)		0

TOMIS Sounds like you've selected "Always Use Safe Sleep"

To turn this off, select "Only Safe Sleep in Emergencies" (which is the default behavior for machines that ship with safe sleep enabled) or "Disable Safe Sleep"

	May 31 2007	MSTIELAU This doesn't appear to work on my 2.66 GHz Mac Pro. Selecting "Safe Sleep Now" causes the machine to go into normal sleep - no difference. (Version 1.0)		0

CNAMBRUTIS It does that for my mac, also. I thought it might have been my mac, since this computer is four years old already.

	May 31 2007	AGGIEKYLE07 Worked flawlessly on my 2.0 GHz Core Duo iMac. I have 2 gigs of ram in my machine, so a little sluggish going into and coming out of hibernation, but functioned perfectly otherwise. Compared to just booting up normally, I think it was about twice as slow, but if you tack on the time it would take to start-up all the applications one had running, it's probably a bit faster in the long run. Quite the interesting (hidden) MacOSX feature. I know it's kind-of silly to use it on a desktop machine, but I still think it's pretty cool. Gives a glimpse at what the performance and methodology behind any future flash-equiped Apple notebooks might look like. (Version 1.0)		0

PEANUT BUTTER why is it silly to use on a desktop? it's a great place to use it. just as you said, you can deep sleep, save energy, reduce noise, without closing your apps and files.

	May 31 2007	HAWK I tryed on PowerBook G4 12in (867MHz). "Safe Sleep Now" is good performance. But choiced "Always use Safe Sleep" is not performance. Because normal start up , when not wakeup at low battery auto sleep. And Safe Sleep(ing) time is not GUI presence. I feel good features, but more up stability, (Version 1.0)		0
