How do I schedule cron jobs on a mac? Is there a gui interface provided by apple for scheduling tasks on a mac, or should I just the cron command line like how you'd do it in linux? And, this might be a silly question, but once you've scheduled a cron job, does it run. I would like to use cron on my Mac. I choose it over launchd, because I want to be able to use my new knowledge on Linux as well. However, I cannot seem to get the crontab -e command to work. It fires up vim, I enter my test job: 0-59. mollerhoj3 echo 'Hello World' But after saving and quitting (:wq), crontab -l says: No crontab for. In your case, a regular cron job using crontab should do what you want, since cron jobs are skipped on OS X when the computer is asleep. – E L Jan 5 '19 at 5:30. Add a comment 2. According to Apple, cron was deprecated a while back. They must have finally pulled the plug in the GM of El Capitan. Apple suggests using launchd instead of cron. There is still no cron in the process list, cron jobs aren't running, and launchctl list says - 0 com.vix.cron.

Crontab reboot command not working
Greetings
I am new at this so excuse any ignorant mistakes I might be making.
I have a server (MM X.4.9) that I would like to restart every day in order to make sure no programmes are hanging etc. If a program is hanging is should force quit it. Using terminal I have entered the following command:
sudo nano /etc/crontab
Entered password
Than I entered using tab between each sequence:
15 13 1 1 * root reboot
This was a test run and it did not reboot.
Entering
cat /etc/crontab
I got:
# The periodic and atrun jobs have moved to launchd jobs
# See /System/Library/LaunchDaemons
#
# minute hour mday month wday who command
15 13 1 1 * root reboot
What have I done wrong?
Thanks
