Possible causes of a self-waking Mac
Authored by: Phosphor on Jul 31, '07 08:05:48AM

I also struggled with tracking down the cause of a self-waking Mac....for years. I scoured every website and forum I could find, and finally tracked it down to the software used to drive some MacAlly keyboards.

I loved my iMediakey keyboard, but the problem—caused by the MacAlly software—has never been fully addressed or fixed, as far as I know.

I tried tech support, and as careful as I was in explaining what I had done in trying to troubleshoot, including making pointed reference to linkes on their own website, they only sent me copy/pasted info—the exact same directions I told them I had already read and performed. It was clear that they didn't read my emails at all.

I got so pissed off at MacAlly's lack of any kind of personal help I yanked the keyboard, their software, and will NEVER recommend it to anyone.

Which software was causing the problem? I've got a MacAlly keyboard, and wonder if that's my issue, too.
