</h1> <div class="taskboxline"> <div class="taskboxheader"> <h3>How Mac OS X sleep mode affects Adium
</h3> <div class="taskboxtext"> <p>Mac OS X automatically disconnects all network connections when you put your Macintosh to sleep. As a result, Adium can't stay connected to your accounts. Adium will automatically attempt to reconnect your accounts when the machine is awakened.
</p> <p>If Adium is not automatically reconnecting after the machine is awakened, check these items:
</p> <li>Do you have a network connection? You may have lost any AirPort connections if you are using a PowerBook which has moved since going to sleep.
</li> <li>Are you using the
<a href="http://www.adium.im">newest version of Adium
</a>? Recent versions have significantly improved reconnection upon awakening.
