Recent Mac models support “Power Nap”. This allows some activities to continue when asleep (and in some case require power to be connected). Apart from it, the Power Nap updates Mac App Store downloads, Time Machine backups, syncing apps like Calendar and Contacts with iCloud, Spotlight indexing and more while your MacBook is in the sleep mode. Instead of waiting for something to finish, you can just shut the lid of your Mac to allow it to finish all the tasks silently. Power nap mac,大家都在找解答。 Power Nap allows your Mac to perform useful activities while it's asleep. I tested Power Nap on my MacBook Pro Retina (Aug 2012) and my Time Machine backup hasn't made any progress. Even the hard drive light is out while the machine sleeps. Energy saver is at the default setting of sleep after 15 minutes and Enable Power Nap is checked.
Ever awoken your PC from sleep and you surely know about the time that it takes for everything to sync up and load? However, you can now be assured some peace with the new Power Nap feature that keeps your system and apps updated while your Mac is in the sleep mode.
The Power Nap feature allows your Mac to run things in the background even while it’s sleeping. It auto-checks your email, updates your notifications and even downloads system updates without you needing to babysit the machine. Apart from it, the Power Nap updates Mac App Store downloads, Time Machine backups, syncing apps like Calendar and Contacts with iCloud, Spotlight indexing and more while your MacBook is in the sleep mode. Instead of waiting for something to finish, you can just shut the lid of your Mac to allow it to finish all the tasks silently. Many of these activities are performed on an hourly basis. Time Machine backups are attempted every hour until successfully completed. Software updates are checked every day, while the Mac App Store updates are checked weekly.
Here’s how you can enable and use the Power Nap feature on Mac.

On the Power Nap mode, your Mac will not exhibit any notification sound and it will be suspended automatically if the machine overheats.
If you are facing an issue that the battery is draining very fast when your Mac is on the power nap mode, then we suggest you disconnect any other external devices connected to your Mac because they drain the power of your Mac or sometimes they are responsible for suspending the power nap mode.
