Why does my Mac wake when I start 1PW on my iPhone

chris_pv

I have my desktop Mac (Mojave 14.6, 1PW 7.4.3) asleep, but whenever I start the 1PW app on my iPhone, my computer wakes up. Why is this happening, and can I make it stop? I DO want to only sync locally between my iPhone/Mac, but not when Mac is asleep. I see the app preference for running a WLAN server... I assume maybe this is part of the reason? Can the wlan server be stopped if the computer is asleep or 1PW is not actively running (which it is not when this is happening, IE the main app is not running).

Hi @chris_pv!

If you temporarily disable WLAN sync on your devices, does your Mac still wake up from sleep? This test will help you understand if it's indeed your sync method which is causing this.

I haven't had time to try yet, but... shouldn't you know? Why ask me to do the QA on it?

Support for the WLAN Server is limited to the advice outlined in these guides:

• How to use the WLAN server
• If you're having trouble using the WLAN server

Beyond that we do not provide troubleshooting for WLAN related issues; my apologies.
