With your editor, save the following lines as /Library/Scripts/sleepscript.sh #!/bin/shģ. Note: After installation you will see the installation path among the messages, something like /opt/homebrew/opt/sleepwatcher/sbin/sleepwatcher. In the terminal, install sleepwatcher with homebrew: brew install sleepwatcher You will need a code editor (that saves files without formatting, a light-weight one is, for example, Atom), Homebrew and some experience with a terminal. That works in most cases, but sometimes I have to re-enable it manually. I also added another script that turns on WiFi again after waking up my Mac. The goal is to turn off WiFi when I put my Mac to sleep so that it won’t connect and do anything online while it is supposed to be inactive. It is based on this solution, however, using different paths and the Automator app since the Launch Agent didn’t work for me. Other possible uses for sleepwatcher include updating a DNS record on wakeup, opening up specific applications for a user, and of course running another script of the user’s choice.Below is a workaround to replace the missing option to turn off the “power nap” for Macs with M1 chips. To get this functionality on your computer, just copy the code below into your own /etc/rc.wakeup. All it does is run the short AppleScript command of setting the volume to zero. My personal /etc/rc.wakeup script is shown below. These get run at their respective times, when the laptop is going to sleep or waking up. It loads the launch daemon then creates two files, /etc/rc.sleep and /etc/rc.wakeup. ![]() It them moves onto downloading the package and copying the files into the appropriate places. We just need to create these 2 files in the user’s Home Directory. The script begins with deleting any old version of sleepwatcher on the computer. Sleepwatcher searches for and runs two files. Sudo chmod +x /etc/rc.sleep /etc/rc.wakeup # create script in local user directory and make them executable sudo touch /etc/rc.wakeup # load launch agent sudo launchctl load -w -F /Library/LaunchDaemons/de. Sudo cp config/de. /Library/LaunchDaemons/de. wakeup sometimes causes the launched application to be considered 'not in the user's login session (i.e., in a. Also - just a heads up - launching programs from within. Sudo cp sleepwatcher.8 /usr/local/share/man/man8 Note that sleepwatcher has some problems in Mountain Lion because the sleep completes before sleepwatcher can finish executing, so whatever you do in. # move files into installation folders sudo cp sleepwatcher /usr/local/sbin # create folders necessary for installation sudo mkdir -p /usr/local/sbin /usr/local/share/man/man8 # download sleepwatcher package, untar, and cd into directory curl -remote-name "" tar xvzf sleepwatcher_2.2.tgz 2 >/dev/null Sudo rm -f /usr/local/share/man/man8/sleepwatcher.8 # remove executable and man files sudo rm -f /usr/local/sbin/sleepwatcher # remove plist launchagents sudo rm -f /Library/LaunchDaemons/de.

This is to prevent accidental audio playing during meetings and classes. On my personal laptop, I have an AppleScript set up within sleepwatcher that mutes the audio each time the laptop goes to sleep. Sleepwatcher is a Mac OS X background daemon that can trigger a script to run when various power related events occur, such as the laptop sleeping or waking up, the screen dimming, or power adapter being connected or disconnected. ![]()
