Problem w/Sleepyhead on Mac

[SolSionnach]

Hi all!
Love the forum.

I have an S9 Autoset, and have been monkeying around with the settings per MD's orders to see if I can reduce the number of clear airway events that I've been having. They have been between 1.52 and 0.22 of my AHI over the past 2 weeks. I know that's not much at all, and I definitely don't qualify for complex apnea (the highest my AHI has been in the past month is aHI = 2.97, since we reduced the lower pressure it's now AHI<1 most nights.

My problem is that Sleepyhead doesn't show all the numbers in the graphs on my mac! It's so frustrating... only 3s, 5s, 7s, and 9s show up on the graphs, so if I wanted to see exactly how long one of the respiratory events is, I have no way to tell.

Is there some kind of fix available for this? I'm running OSX ver 10.6.8, and Sleepyhead ver 0.9.2-2

Thanks!

Hi Sol,

I'm a fellow Mac/Sleepyhead user with an S9 machine, also on Snow Leopard. I'm not sure if I follow what you're saying about the numbers on the graphs. Can you post a screenshot or elaborate? While there is an "Events" graph I usually review events by clicking on the Events tab which shows the exact number of seconds that an event lasted.

Sure, if I can figure out how to post a pic, I will.
I now have the pic... what do I do with it?

[SolSionnach]

wow. That was easier than I thought.

As you can see, I don't have any numbers to speak of.

Oh yeah, that looks really bizarre and funky. Did you go to sleep around 12:30 p.m. and get up at 8 a.m.?

I think more techy people will be along to help but I wonder if you need to do a clean re-install of SleepyHead. This is what graph numbers should look like. The times shown may change depending on how many total hours you've slept -- On some shorter nights my graph shows the time in 15-min intervals instead of 30-min, but the numbers always make sense:

[SolSionnach]

No, went to bed at 12:30am and up around 8am.

I know that hte numbers should look better. It's just weird.

I'm worried that if I reinstall, I'll lose my data. Perhaps someone knows where it's stored, so I can back it up.

No, went to bed at 12:30am and up around 8am.

oops, that's what I meant -- you can see your sleep time from the numbers on the graph (even with many of the numbers missing), but it is indeed weird.

As for where your current SleepyHead files are stored, I just found this from GreatuncleBill on another forum:

there is a sleepyhead folder in my documents that has everything. backup a copy of the whole folder. you'll see the files when you fish down thru the folders.

Yep! I just checked my Documents and there it is. I would back it up then reinstall SH.

I've had 3 different cards - at first the Autoset, then the Escape, now the Autoset again.

That's good to know! THanks... I'll look for it now.
