Hey @Russ I installed WakeMeOnLan tool as you recommended, and got it to wake up my Mac locally, but I'm not sure how to make it work through Triggercmd on Alexa. Where should I run the command you said?

I actually have a low power mini-itx pc with windows 10 that I could leave always on if needed to make this work. I've been doing some research on how to get it to wake my Mac but there's not many specific results, or maybe I'm not searching the right way lol... If not asking too much, do you have a way that you could point me, that could work? A Windows 10 pc waking a Mac on wake-on-lan... or maybe even a way over the internet...

Hey @Russ you're a genius... I followed the steps and it works perfectly! I'm sure many other Mac users will find this very helpful! Thanks again for taking the time to look into this and give such an easy and fast solution...

Now I'm having trouble setting up the Mac to wake on lan from sleep... I'm not sure if Triggercmd has this option... Do you know any way to set this up that actually works?

Anyway, thank you!

Hey @Russ, thanks for the reply! It would be great if you could please do that, in my case it would help out a lot!

Hi,

I have a Mac and would like to know if there is a way to Log Out the active user first and then have it go to sleep. I have noticed that when I manually Log Out and give the Sleep command to Alexa, the TRIGGERcmd.app seems to have stopped running, so the Sleep command no longer works at the Log In screen.

The reason for this is that I would like to always have a "clean session" when I wake the Mac and type my user password.

Is there a way to run the TRIGGERcmd.app as a background app (launch daemon) before user login?

Thanks!
