My macbook pro 2.0 early 2011 will not go to sleep with the power source connected. only enters sleep mode when running on battery. Someone did this happen, and it could solve?
Alo, my Macbook pro i7 2 GHz Intel Core i7 (early 2011) will not go to sleep with the power source connected. only enters sleep mode when running on battery. Someone did this happen, and it could solve?
There is no output from that command line? Maybe the pid changed.
I'll repeat what I am trying to find out...
1. You do a pmset -g on the terminal.
2. The output from that pmset should have a line that says "sleep 0 (imposed by n)" where n is some number.
3. The ps ax | grep n is supposed to display what the process associated with n is.
It's the output from step 3 that should indicate what is causing you not to sleep.
But speaking of sleep, that's where I am going.

Macbook pro 13 inch early 2011 WILL NOT go to SLEEP on ITS OWN.
I am able to close the lid to have it sleep, and manually click the apple>Sleep button to get it to sleep, but with the Energy Saver preferences set for it to sleep at 1 minute it will not allow it to sleep. The display will turn off, but the Light doesn't start blinking dimly. Is anyone else having this similiar Problem? I've deleted preferences .plist files etc to try and remove any possible bad seetings but I think it may be related to this error here. I don't know if this problem is via a Firmware update or bad hardware.
I have noticed when I open up preferences for "Energy Saver" the "Console" gives me this error immediately.

My MacBook Pro (early 2011) will not go to sleep
Very recently my MacBook Pro (early 2011) suddenly stopped going to sleep whenever I shut it or even when I manually put it to sleep. I went to my schools help desk and they suggested restoring the computer to factory settings. I did this, reinstalled Mountain Lion and the problem seemed fixed. Then I backed up my files and again the computer would not sleep. I put the computer in safe mode and the computer would fall asleep. Any ideas what this might be?

HP Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless (Vista x64) Will not print after Sleep Mode
Hello,
As the title says the printer does not print after coming back from sleep mode. Before entering sleep mode the printer works fine and is responsive. After coming back from sleep mode the printer is still responsive (buttons on the touch screen can be pressed) but unfortunately does not accept any print jobs. Currently, I restart the printer to get it to print. It is connected wirelessly through WRT610N Linksys Router. Any suggestions or solutions would be greatly appreciated.
-Artem DurytskyyI have been having the same problem all during my warranty period. But no one ever told me it was a firmware problem until two days ago connected to the sleep mode for the wireless one. Supposedly, they have downloads for wire ones now online which I found for 909a and 909b, but not 909g which is wireless. Now I am out of warranty and they won't replace it. I have a long history with tech support since early 2010. Right now, they are sending me a power adapter to try, said to turn off sleep mode (which I dont' know how). Then I told them I found online a firmware download, Apr 2010 to update firmware. My current version is different that the one listed for the download. So, I'm going back to TS to have them fool with it. Has anything worked for you?

MacBook Pro (late 2008) automatic boot, does not get into sleep mode
Good evening from Germany,
I have a problem with my MBP (5,1). Since last tuesday the MBP boots automatically after it had been shut down if the power chord is still attached to the MBP. As well when closing the lid it goes into sleep mode but after a couple of minutes it tries to wake itself resulting in lighting up the Apple logo on the back of the lid. After that it goes into sleep mode again and starts all over with the procedure ...-wake up-lid still closed-sleep-wake up-...
I did not install or update any software since that day, the power management options "wake on LAN", and "restart after powerloss" are decativated. I do not have any scheduled boot or shut down times set. I removed all login-items, had a look for the "com.apple.AutoWake.plist" and deleted it. I do not have or had any eyeTV application installed. I have no clue what could have caused this behaviour.
In case it helps, this is an excerpt from the system.log
Feb 28 18:12:01 mooxmacbook mDNSResponder[18]: mDNS_FinalExit failed to deregister service: 100831D28 mooxmacbook.rfb.tcp.se\.pieper.members.mac.com.

flyingAThat's what I was guessing as well. But unfortunately there is no other device connected to the MBP.
Here's a list of what I've tried so far:
- login-items deleted
- PRAM & SMC reset
- no boot schedules
- System Preferences Energy "Wake on Ethernet activity" deactivated
- System Preferences Energy "Automatic reboot after power-loss " deactivated
- eyeTV not installed (was never installed before)
- "com.apple.AutoWake.plist" in /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/ deleted
- mobileMe sync deactivated
- ComboUpdate installed
- booted in Safe Mode and tested
- setup new user and tested if the problem persists (in Safe Mode too)
- fresh install using a Time Machine backup
Well thanks for the that but let's keep writing in English I guess that's easier for both of us. -
What cable should be used to connect a macbook pro, 13 inch, early 2011 model to an external projector so the project displays the image on the computer screen?
You will need a cable or adapter with a minidisplay connection for the MBP. That will be inserted in the Thunderbolt port. The other end is dependent upon the connections of the projector which you have not listed.
Ciao. -

MacBook pro 17" will not wake from sleep mode
Ok so my MacBook Pro 17" with osx 10.6.8 will not awaken from sleep mode. when attempting to wake it up the screen dosent come on and the mouse and keyboard do not receve any power. to get back on the computer i have to force a hard restart by holding the power button for 10 seconds then pressing it again. then it boots to where i left off when i closed the lid. i have read a few forums about this problem and i have went through all the steps of reseting various things and went as far as going into terminal using sudo to disable safe sleep and nothing helps. i noticed an unusual error in my console. here is a copy of my console log. the one in question is {7/14/13 4:52:43 AM com.apple.UserEventAgent-Aqua[118] dontAutoLoad = EMPTY!} someone please help me I am over 150 miles from the nearest apple store or authorised retailer

Also I broke down and called support again this time a senior advisor's boss recorded the events and sent the data to their "engineering department" still waiting on the results hopefully they will get back to me sometime between today and saturday. will post the results of the tests. also this is a 2011 17in intel i5 -
When I close then open the lid on my MacBook, it will not wake up from sleep mode. I have to reboot by holding down the power button for 10 sec. When it restarts, it takes a long time to get past the gray screen with the apple logo. I also have this same problem when it goes into sleep mode, when left idle. I have since changed the settings so it will not go into sleep mode when idle in system preferences. I have reset PRAM and SMC, but the problem still persists.
I have the same problem, intermittently. I think it has something to do with full-screen mode, which I use intermittently. Have you noticed this happening only when you are in a full-screen app?
I also have a MacBook Pro from 2011, and I know for sure my MagSafe power adapter is fine and not part of the problem.
I have noticed a few things that may be hints at what is happening:
one time, (all??) while my screen was basking in the glow of sunlight from the side, I saw that the screen pixels were indeed "on", that the back-light of the screen was just off.
Which led me to the conclusion that my MacBook Pro was indeed waking from sleep, the screen was just not lighting up.
But that theory was disproved this morning, when when waking from sleep, the screen was black, except for my cursor. My cursor was completely visible on a black background. Huh?? It was like some software was putting up a black modal dialog over the whole screen. Also, the Apple Logo on the back of the laptop screen was fully lit -- meaning the backlight was on. The machine was awake (curson moving on a black background), and the screen was fully back-lit.
I'm not sure yet how consistent this behavior is... I will take more careful notes each time this problem happens in the future... But, it looks like I have rogue software that is trying to make my machine look like it is sleeping.
To "capture" the culprit I think I could set up a hot-key command that takes a snapshot of all running processes in Activity Monitor. This could show what processes are running when "waking" from sleep. nabbing the culprit?
I use Snapz Pro. That is non-standard software running with control over screen functions. Maybe Snapz Pro has a problem? I doubt it, but maybe, because it has hooks into background tasks with video. Snapz Pro is my only 32-bit process. Could Snapz Pro be the cause? I use Snapz Pro all the time.
The problem seems to be related to Full-Screen mode. Could it be possible that full-screen apps sometimes have problems returning from sleep? I know there are viewControllers responsible for handling events when waking. Could the symptoms of not waking from sleep be caused by bugs in full-screen apps? -

how will i increase the shared memory of the graphic card of macbook pro 13-inch, early 2011 from 4gb memory?
The current version of Mavericks is 10.9.4. To update yours download and install OS X Mavericks 10.9.4 Update (Combo).
You can upgrade RAM to the maximum your model will support. That would be:
Maximum Memory
16 GB (Actual) 8 GB (Apple)
Memory Slots
2 - 204-pin PC-10600 (1333 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM
About OS X Memory Management and Usage
Using Activity Monitor to read System Memory & determine how much RAM is used
OS X Mavericks- About Activity Monitor
Adding RAM only makes it possible to run more programs concurrently. It doesn't speed up the computer nor make games run faster. What it can do is prevent the system from having to use disk-based VM when it runs out of RAM because you are trying to run too many applications concurrently or using applications that are extremely RAM dependent. It will improve the performance of applications that run mostly in RAM or when loading programs. -
Can I install one 8 GB ram in a MacBook Pro (13-inch, Early 2011).
Can I install one 8 GB ram in a MacBook Pro (13-inch, Early 2011). The other slot is not working, I have only one slot that works. It is stated in this link http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1270#link1 , that the maximum memory is 8 GB where every slot slot has 4 Gb. Is there any problem if i install only one 8 Gb ram in the working slot ?
You should be able to do that.
Maximum Memory
16 GB (Actual) 8 GB (Apple)
Memory Slots
2 - 204-pin PC-10600 (1333 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM
Understand that there is no guarantee it will work, but based on the above it should work for you. -
I upgraded MacBook Pro (13-inch, Early 2011) to yosemite. I have no more access to Finder, App Store and some apps. Since I have no access to App Store I cannot download the missing parts. How can I get access to App Store?
Welcome to Apple Support Communities
What do you mean by having no access to those apps? Can you start up your Mac and work with it, and only some OS X apps do not work?
Anyway, what you can try is to reinstall OS X. To do this, hold Command and R keys while your Mac is starting up and reinstall OS X. You will not lose any file. -
MacBook Pro 15-inch Early 2011 vs MacBook Air 13-inch 2013
Hello. I currently own a MacBook Pro 15-inch, early 2011 model. It has 8 GB of RAM, a quad-core, 2.3 GHz i7 processor, hi-res, anti-glare display, an AMD 6750m and Intel HD 3000. I bought it off of an Apple product store on Ebay about 3 and a half months ago. It was 1,350$. It was in perfect condition when I bought it, and it still is. I'm really into producing music, and I use Reason 6.5. I also do some other small things on my laptop, like word-processing, web-browsing and I bring it to school everyday. I was wandering if I should sell this laptop on Ebay, and buy a brand-new Macbook Air, 13-inch, 2013 model. The laptop is a little thick and heavy, and its battery-life is nothing compared to the MacBook Air. I really value battery-life I would probably upgrade the RAM to 8 gigs, and maybe upgrade the processor to 1.7 GHz, maybe upgrade the SSD to 256, but I might not. I was wandering if this would be a good idea. How much would I be able to sell this laptop for on Ebay? Is the MacBook Air weaker or stronger than the laptop I am using now? Screen real estate is something that matters a lot when using a music program, which is why I initially went for this laptop. Now, since the MacBook Air is smaller, I know that it displays just as much as this laptop does, so I don't think that the screen size would be that big of a problem. I am thinking about saving up for a 27-inch iMac, which would then be my primary machine, but if I were able to buy one, it wouldn't be for awhile. Anyways, Thanks to anybody who can help me!

Is the MacBook Air weaker or stronger than the laptop I am using now
Its stronger in alloy form factor, slim design with only ONE moving part, no HD to crash from mechanical failure of impact etc.
Ive got an Imac and current Air, and owned several Air, the air is the hands down choice for myself and I wouldnt part with it for any amount of money. Also own a couple macbook Pro, new and older one i rebuilt.

Macbook Air:
Only one moving part, ultrafast boot time SSD, the full power of laptop with the weight of an Ipad (close).
Air is the only Mac that has Haswell, 802ac wifi, and incredible 12hr. batt life in 13" I5. HOWEVER NOW the new Pro have 802ac wifi
Recommend buying the Air with 8gig Ram.
Pack around a regular laptop around about 20 days, then an Air, .....after that the standard laptops stays at home.
Only one moving part, the fan. No moving HD heads to crash or moving platters. Runs a LOT cooler than anything else out there (which = durability). Heater is a killer on a scale of 10X over that of accidents.
Also the AIR has far fewer parts to fail inside than a standard laptop. Really only a few replacement parts
The speakers on the Air, contrary to what most people would assume, are much louder than on the macbook Pro.
The Air in general is faster due to the SSD, also if you have a 802ac Router (i.e. Airport Extreme) then the Air over wifi is a LOT faster.
If youre going to be dragging a notebook around campus all the time, the Air makes things a lot more lovely.
The FINAL consideration of course is your application USE, and needs regarding same (see specs and video above)
The new Air, NOW with Mavericks is just 'king of the hill'. Nothing touches it
