10.5.6 and 10.5.7 Macbook hibernate twice, then freezes

This subject is a bit beside the point of the previous thread http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2005687&tstart=0.
======================
Nome modello: MacBook
Identificatore modello: MacBook4,1
Nome processore: Intel Core 2 Duo
Velocità processore: 2.4 GHz
Numero di processori: 1
Numero totale di nuclei: 2
Cache L2: 3 MB
Memoria: 4 GB
Velocità bus: 800 MHz
Versione Boot ROM: MB41.00C1.B00
Version SMC (sistema): 1.31f0
====================
I prefer the hibernate mode of my macbook rather than the sleep mode.
Therefore in terminal I keyed in:
$ sudo pmset -a hibernatemode 1
and now I have
$ pmset -g
Active Profiles:
Battery Power -1
AC Power -1*
Currently in use:
sleep 20
sms 1
acwake 0
displaysleep 5
autorestart 0
hibernatefile /var/vm/sleepimage
hibernatemode 0
womp 1
halfdim 1
disksleep 10
lidwake 1
ttyskeepawake 1
with both 10.5.6 and 10.5.7 (I don't know with previous versions because I did not use hibernate mode) I'm able to stop and hibernate the macbook, say, twice or three times until stopping the macbook it freezes leaving a flashing light, a running hd and no way to resume the session. The only left option is to turn it off.
I wonder if someone else is experiencing something similar.

Why can't this be posted here? To me this is a valid question, just as the tread / question the OP links to in his posting.
@victor:

    Hi Vittorio--
    Look in either the MacBook Pro or Leopard forums. I'm running late and I can't look up a specific thread, but your problem sounds like a similar one that people are saying is cured by making sure the ethernet port is active as part of your network setup, even if you're not using it.

  • I have pages, numbers and keynote on my macbook pro, but when i try to use the apps on my new iMac it will not let me save

    I purchased Pages, Numbers and Keynote for my MacBook Pro and iPad last year.  I just purchased a new iMac for my wife and it came with iWorks.  When I try to save a document on the iMac it tells me I must buy an iWorks serial number, but the App Store shows the applications as installed and will not process the request.  How do I correct?

    Did you pay for iWorks to come preinstalled on the iMac? Because it sounds like what you have is a trial version, which is why it is stating that you need to buy a serial number.
    I suggest that you delete the entire trial iWorks suite. Once they are safely in the Trash where the Mac App Store can't see them, you can sign into your account on the MAS and download the MAS versions that you own a license to use.

  • How to get my Music and videos from my Macbook pro to apple TV

    I have some music and videos from my macbook that i have added to itunes from CD's and DVDs. Whenever i try to play music or movies on my apple TV it says that there is no music in the library. Is this because the items were not bought on itunes and were added from my computer??

    If the music and video is compatible, it should play from Computers.
    The Mac and iTunes must be running, the media files must be accessible on an internal or attached external drive.
    I assume you have enabled Home Sharing.

  • I have a Macbook Pro (2009) and the tool bar in Safari keeps disappearing. There's a small diagonal arrow on the upper right that I can click and the bar will appear temporarily, but then it disappears from view. "Hide Toolbar" is greyed out in VIEW

    My 2009 Macbook Pro's Safari doesn't show the tool bar anymore.  I can click on a diagonal arrow in the upper right corner that appears when I put my cursor there and the tool bar will show, but then it disappears again.  Also, when I get an email and click on an internet link the Safari doesn't open full page like it used to - it opens as a small little box and I have to click the diagonal arrow in upper right corner for it to open full screen.  Any ideas how to correct this - it is so annoying.  Thanks for any help!

    The "restore disk" is built into the Mac. See About Recovery.
    Need more specifics about what error messages you got while installing Adobe Flash.
    However, you can almost avoid Flash altogether by setting YouTube to play the HTML5 version instead.
    Click the Try something new! link at the bottom of the YouTube page.
    I don't know about the sound issue. Might be hardware as you think. Try other headphones to check.

  • My husband and i share a macbook. we each have our own log-in and we each have our own itunes account. how can we share our libraries?

    My husband and I share a macbook. We each have our own log-in and we each have our own itunes account. How can we use home sharing?

    First, you need to understand that there's a difference between "syncing" and "backup".  Backup is the saving of content and settings, where syncing is the bidirectional transfer of content for an account to a web-based server (like iCloud, Gmail, Yahoo, etc.)
    If you see your calendar in your iCloud account, that implies that you have set up your iCloud account to host (sync) your calendar, and perhaps contacts, email, and notes.  An iCloud account can only sync one user's information at a time so it is intended to support a single user.  You can have more than one iCloud account, and you can even have more than one iCloud account on the same device (but one has to be primary, and the secondary iCloud has limited capabilities), but a single iCloud account only supports a single user's content.
    Backup is the saving of your device's content and settings to use in case you need to recover these things, but you can't see the contents of your backup (just the size and device name).  You can backup more than one device to iCloud and you can backup to iCloud or you can backup to your computer, or both (one at a time though, you have to choose). 
    So, if your wife has her own email and calendar she can certainly do that in parallel to whatever account(s) you have for email and calendar.  But if you have only one iCloud account then only one of you can use it for email, calendar, etc.  But the backup of these accounts is really just a backup of the device's settings that link the device to these accounts. For example, if she uses Gmail then the backup of the iPad only backs up the fact that your iPad is set up to use her account, it does not backup the account itself (the content of her account is saved and preserved on Google's servers, not your device's backup).
    Does that make better sense?

  • I upgraded to a new macbook pro and gave my old macbook to my daughter, we have deauthorized all other computers it will not let us download itunes library with her id it say it already authorized to another apple id... help how do we fix this

    i upgraded  to a macbook pro and gave my old macbook to my daughter, we tried to get her itunes library downloaded on it and it said that there was already an apple id assigned to that computer.
    we went on the new one an de authorized all computers and then tried to re load her itune library on and it still isnt working. what are we doing wrong?
    i called tech support and they are useless until you are willing to pay them 269 dollars to give you the information. ive spent a smal fortune buying apple products over the last 2 years, the least they could do is answer a simple question. Please help

    It sounds to me like there are two separate processes being intertwined above:
    1.  Setting up your daughter's MacBook with identifying info; e.g., Apple ID for the user account on that machine.
    2.  Transferring the iTunes library (a very different operation).
    Have you used Apple's Migration Assistant to move your daughter's information from her old machine to the MacBook?  That would have avoided this whole issue.
    If not, either start the process over and use Migration Assistant, or try to more carefully and precisely define exactly what you did to accomplish this transition.  You said, for example, "there was already an Apple ID assigned to this computer."  That statement almost certainly did not originate with iTunes.

  • Can I stream a movie from my Macbook to my Apple TV on one display, and still use my Macbook for other things?

    I have a Macbook Pro and an Apple TV. What I'd like to do is stream a movie from my CinemaNow Account to my television by using my Apple TV and my Macbook. I know that I can do this my using the mirroring feature, however then I can no longer use my Macbook for anything else because my TV will only display what is on the screen of my Macbook. Now with this is mind, what then is the point of having multiple displays through the use of my Apple TV, if only one display can be used at a time unless they both show the same image? Or is there a way for me to be able to stream the movie to my TV and still use my Macbook for other purposes (multi-tasking)? 

    To enable a second display over AirPlay, you first need to be connected to the same network as your Apple TV. Next, open System Preferences > Displays, and select your Apple TV from the “AirPlay Display” drop-down menu.
    Once you do this, your display may flash as the second display connection is acquired, and the Apple TV takes over as the second display. If the displays are mirrored, then you can correct this by opening the “Arrangement” tab in System Preferences > Displays, and ensuring that the “Mirror Displays” checkbox is unchecked.
    In this same “Arrangement” tab, you can move the displays around in the pane to ensure that they're positioned correctly, relative to your physical space (usually side-by-side, or top-down). The primary display here is denoted here by the Menu bar on the display. The arrangement helps with being able to drag windows from one display to the next: if your secondary display is arranged to be to the right of your primary one, for example, you can drag things to it through the right side of your primarcy screen.

  • My wife and I both have the iphone and we use my macbook pro with iTunes to sync our ipods. When I do something on my iPhone it shows on hers. How do I set up her a seperate iTunes acct on my mac so she can operate independent of me?

    My wife and I both have the iphone and we use my macbook pro with iTunes to sync our ipods. When I do something on my iPhone it shows on hers. How do I set up her a seperate iTunes acct on my mac so she can operate independent of me?

    There's info here on setting up separate libraries and user accounts. You won't have to reload (or re-import) all the music, just copy it.
    The reason I suggest separate accounts on the Mac is because if you have the two libraries under the same user account, iTunes will also open the last library that was open in that account, and you'll always have to be mindful of which library that is. If you open iTunes and find it's not your library, you'll have quit, relaunch holding the option key and select the other library.
    No, you won't have to log in and out of the Mac. (If I'm understanding your question here.) Multiple accounts can be logged in at the same time. And with fast user switching, you can toggle between user accounts.
    I'll admit that maintaining the two libraries gets a little tricky, because if you share all the same music, you'll have to add it to one and update the other. (That won't happen automatically.) But I think Home Sharing makes this much easier to do.
    Hope that helps!
