DeepSleep overview

DeepSleep will allow your Mac laptop or desktop to sleep without using any power or drain the batteries. It saves everything to disk and stops using power completely. When you wake up your machines by pressing the power button, DeepSleep will restore everything and wake up just like you left it. It takes a little longer than normal sleep but it is a great battery saver when you know you won't be using the computer for a while. Give it a try, you will love the convenience and the extra battery life!

Super Easy to Use
  • Regular Sleep: Shut your lid.
  • DeepSleep Hibernate: Launch DeepSleep.
  • No menu, no configuration, super easy.
Features
  • Hibernates your Mac.
  • Extends the battery life on your MacBook.
  • Saves power when you are not using your desktop Mac.
  • Application can also be launched via Dashboard with the included DeepSleep Widget.
  • Mac OS X Gatekeeper ready.

Version 2.4 has been available since November 30, 2016. You can get it from the developer's site.

HOWEVER! Note that the .DMG file for v2.4 is screwed up and does NOT include the very useful Dashboard widget! If you attempt to install what looks like the widget, you'll get an ERROR message as it's merely an icon with a name on it. I've attempted to inform the developer.

INSTEAD: Use an older version of the widget. I found v1.5 of the widget works fine. v2.2 of the widget is odd in that you have to Stop/Quit Dashboard before it works. ALSO NOTE: The widget requires the app to be installed in order to work, which means it's NOT free past the trial period.

Oh and v2.4 works fine on macOS 10.12.6 Sierra. [I'm skipping 10.13.x due to its incomplete and sloppy rollout of APFS, Apple File System.]

There's a FREE dashboard widget also called Deep Sleep. It is free. The current version 1.2 works fine for me (Yosemite 10.10.3) http://deepsleep.free.fr

DeepSleep1.2 doesn't work with Mavericks :( DeepSleep2.2 does work with Mavericks but not Free :( SafeSleepOnce is better, simple and works very well with Mavericks * search for this apps, they're great too! ;) SafeSleepOnce (thanks Aargl) Ü SafeSleep Hibernate
