Switched computers and now my schedules aren't working...

I have Indigo set up as the local server on my iMac (running 24/7). I followed the instructions to bring over files from old iMac to the new iMac. Ran the installer. Everything seemed to be fine.

I can control my devices from the iMac, the schedules seem fine but they don't execute.

Any suggestions? I searched the forums but didn't find anything matching my situation.

Thanks in advance!

Out of curiosity, have you tried creating a brand-new schedule to see if that fires - indicating that your legacy schedules don't work but new ones do?

When a schedule is supposed to fire, what shows in the event log? Are the schedules enabled?

Something just occurred to me and would be odd if it were the case, but did you set the timezone of the new mac to be the same as the old mac or is the new mac in a different zone and therefore the schedules might fire but just not at the time you expect?

Thanks for all the reply/suggestions!

I did two things and I think one did the trick:
1 - I changed the iMac Power Saving settings so that the computer hard drive would never fall asleep (it was set to sleep after 15 minutes).
2 - I choose each Device and did a Re-Sync Links

I'll report back if I'm wrong.

Cheers!
