Running Mac OS X Mavericks 10.9.2 on a Macbook Pro with a solid-state 'hard drive'. This condition existed under Mountain Lion, so we can't blame Mavericks for this. My Mac and Outlook are awake at all times, while the display goes to sleep after five minutes. This brings the powerful Skype experience to all interested Mac business users across the globe. The experience should be more or the same when compared to the Windows version. The ability to use Lync for Mac 2011 alongide Skype for Business Preview is a great idea, especially for those who. There has been a new June 2017 update released for the Skype for Business Mac Clients. This could be cumulative update 5 i cant see it mentioning cu version anywhere at the mo so its June update for the SfB Mac Client with a lot of new features added and improvements, any SfB mac user I’m sure. It seems that when the computer is unattended and otherwise idle, the every-10-minute send-and-receive-all does not succeed in downloading messages waiting at the server, but instead creates an 'inactivity timeout' in the error log. As soon as other activities start getting performed, the next send-and-receive-all effectively downloads everything waiting at the server. At first glance this sounds like a 'so what?' The undesirable element occurs when the user is waiting for an e-mail while not sitting next to the computer, and would like the audible alert when a message arrives. IMHO, this sounds like a hairline timing problem associated with 'server delay'; i.e., how long Outlook will wait for a response from the server. If the computer is doing other things, it may slow down the time check just enough to let the server respond. On the other hand, if the computer is idle, the time check can run at full speed and beat the server to the punch. I know this may not make sense, but keep in mind that this is just my opinion, which usually doesn't make sense anyway. In Windows Outlook 2007, there is an easy-to-find slider adjustment for the server delay time. There is no such convenience in Outlook for Mac 2011. Is there a work-around for this? Perhaps the will be more helpful. I followed those instructions only with Outlook. I also rechecked my Energy Saver preferences. See, scroll about half way down to the section 'Notebooks.' My prefs are UNchecked box when on power adapter and checked box when on battery. As for Spotlight, it might depend on the categories you've allowed in Spotlight preferences. I don't think that Power Nap or App Nap (whatever they're calling it) is a separate application but rather embedded in the OS itself. I just typed 'nap' into Spotlight and it jumped to the email message I received about this thread and nothing else. There was a recent discussion in one of the Mac forums about alternatives to Spotlight and users reported loving Easy Find and/or Find Any File.
