Timer auto-start in OSX?

[jimoblak]

I recall being able to set an OS8 or OS9 Mac to start and shut down at a certain time. Can this be done in OSX?

Hi Jimboblak,
You sure can!

http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/17991

Product Description:
iBeeZz offers full management of your Mac activity with complete Mac OS X integration. It can be used as a complete alarm clock.

Thanks to iBeeZz, you can schedule when your Mac will:

sleep,
wake up,
shut down,
startup,
and restart.


It's shareware (10 euros) Not sure what that works out to in $$, and couldn't see a way to pay for it in US currency.
Best of luck!

Found another one:

Best of all, this one is freeware
Product Requirements:
Mac OS X


What's new in this version:


Admin password is now required to install the boot script
Wake from sleep
Daily wake up


Product Description:
Back with OS 9, you were able to schedule your Mac to automatically turn on. Apple omitted this from MacOS X. After a lot of digging I finally figured out how to do it.

Hope that helps!
