Auto boot your Mac after shutting down.

Overview

ResurrXtion can automatically boot your Mac after you turned it off. Apple omitted this from OS X.

What's new in ResurrXtion

Version 1.0 adds the following:

Custom booting now available. This completes all the features I intended this application to handle. Preferences behave better.
System Information tab now actually shows something useful.
The app now has an interactive clock.
A better icon. That original one wasn't so hot.

no, sorry but appe did not forget it, they classed it as a server type operation, the setting is in OS X Server, but not plain OS X.

Version 0.6

After downloading and trying to run the package, I get an error message that say's "the preinstall script was either not readable or not executable". I am running OS 10.2.8.

I get the exact same message after trying to install it on two seperate harddrives running 10.2._ :(

Version 1.0

I REALLY miss this OS 9 feature but it doesn't want to install on my G4 gigabit with an upgraded processor (Powerforce G4 1.2 Dual). Is it because of the upgrade?

Version 1.0

When set schedule to "daily", at 18:00 for example. 1st day, at 9:00 manualy turn on, and at 17:00 manualy turn off. Then at 18:00 ResurrXtion works good, and turn on automaticaly.(some programs work automaticaly.) 2nd day, at 9:00 manualy turn on, and at 19:00 manualy turn off. This day ResurrXtion is not work, because computer is already turn on at 18:00. 3rd day, at 9:00 manualy turn on, and at 17:00 manualy turn off like 1st day. But, this day, ResurrXtion DO NOT WORK at 18:00. My computer is eMac 800Mhz, OS X10.2.6

Version 1.0

I can only support what I own, and that's 3 G4's (Cube, Ti15, Al17, and a DP 500 at work). The rest of the support comes soley from Apple documentation and user reports. I wish I had the hardware in hand but I don't. The shutdown feature I'll be looking into once I get back from WWDC. I can't tell you how many times I redesigned the interface, and I still don't like it. But like you said, you don't have to open it often.

Version 1.0

The interface could be cleaned up quite a bit, but it's not like this is an app I have open all the time. Fantastic otherwise. C/Shouldn't something like this be a prefpane?

Version 1.0

To do a shutdown at a certain requires no additional software. You can use a cron scheduled event to either trigger an app (or apple script) to shut down the computer, or use a terminal command to do it (quick and dirty method).

Version 1.0

This is good. The feature never worked for me under OS9, lets see if it works now :) I usually leave my powerbook on all the time but it runs very hot when it is on and i think it deserves a rest. Thanks for making this app

Version 0.86

AT LAST! The missing link I have so hoped for. My Mac can now wake up before me. Hopefully the shut-down preference will not be long in coming
