Hi guys, I posted on the desktop sub forum a problem with wake issues whereby on putting the iMac to sleep it would only wake if I unplug the power cord and then plugged back in and pushed the power button. After trying the usual smc and pram resets as well as doing the hardware test without success I rung apple who went through other processes like clearing caches and launch daemons etc and using another account, again only with temporary success. They then advised me to reinstall the software after erasing first but again this only works temporarily and the more I do it the limited the success rate becomes. They then passed my case to a senior engineer who is adamant it is software related but can't explain what, so then questioned my router or network. I told him I had no issues with my MBP on the same wifi network. They seem to have lost interest in my problem and i'm just unplugging the computer most times which isn't convenient. Any ideas out there, my you tube home page would also not load all the videos unless I refreshed the page, so I logged out of it and now all videos display correctly without any blanks. But random site and pages take ages to load occasionally. Really am pulling my hair out now, have I got a virus? I don't understand how software can get corrupted on a clean install, I downloaded os Sierra on my map with an ethernet connection.
