MacBooks are very popular these days, however, this computer has a drawback that makes users annoyed. Like the iPhone, the MacBook has the ability to set alarms, which can be convenient when you don't have your iPhone nearby.

However, a major limitation of this line of machines is that it cannot emit an alarm sound when in Sleep Mode. This is inconvenient for those who want to use MacBook as an alarm clock. Users can completely overcome this problem in a few simple ways.
