One of the features that I love about my Mac,
but rarely get a chance to use, is the
scheduling feature. You can schedule your
Mac to start up or awake at a specific day/
time, or every day at the same time.
Likewise, you can schedule your Mac to
sleep, restart or shut down at a specific day/
time, or every day at the same time.
This is a very useful feature for those who
are on a set schedule each day/week –
especially those who work from home. For
instance, you can schedule your Mac to turn
on a few minutes before it’s time to work.
Maybe you leave your Mac on all evening and
want to schedule it to shut down after the
time that you usually go to sleep.
Luckily, all of this can be done without
installing any additional apps on your Mac.
Here’s how.
1. Open System Preferences and click on
“Energy Saver.”
2. Next, click on the “Schedule…” button at
the bottom right of the window.
3. In the small window that slides down
from the top, you can schedule your Mac as
you’d like. There are two separate options:
Start up or wake and Sleep/Restart/Shut
Down – you can enable one or both.
When it comes to the day/time, you can
choose: weekdays, weekends, every day or a
specific day of the week; you can enter any
time that you’d like.
This is a great productivity featured that can
help to save you time in the morning and/or
evenings. Plus, it will help to save your
battery by shutting down at a specific time
each day.
