Amphetamine no longer turns on MacBook

[timfea926]

Hi Amphetamine Team,

First of all, congratulations for your victory over Apple. I'm relieved to hear that the Apple team now better understands your product so that users can continue to reap its benefits.

Now to my issue. I've always scheduled Amphetamine to keep my MacBook alive Mondays to Fridays from 8am to 6pm. Prior to upgrading to Ventura, I knew that even if I was a little late to my office, my computer would already be switched on (and thus it would appear as if I was hard at work) thanks to your trusty little app. However, since upgrading to Ventura, my computer does not automatically turn on at 8am despite all settings staying the same. It does, however, stay awake once I've manually woken it up, but prior to the upgrade everything was automated.

I tried scheduling my Mac to wake up at the set time with Terminal, but Mac requires users to run as root in order to modify such settings. Since I'm using a computer provided by my work, I don't have the ability to run as root.

Can you perhaps look into this issue? I'd really appreciate it.

Thank you!
