G’day,
Over the past 1-2 months, my MacPro5,1 has, on about 6-8 occasions, powered itself off whilst I was not at the keyboard. Today alone it’s done it 3 times…
Whilst a power outage may have contributed once… mostly it’s just simply “happened” - when I’ve been away for some time (ie an hour+), I come back and find the computer has powered off.
The power cable is firmly seated at both the computer, and the outlet.
It is set to sleep after 1/2hr. I suspect it’s going to sleep and then shutting off for some reason.
My research suggests the power supply may be on the way out… although at least when that happened with my PMG5, it was happening much more frequently… til it didn’t turn on any more.
Is there anything else that I should check here…?
Cheers
