2 Lion Problems: Waking from Sleep Doesn't Go to Wifi Network; & Can No Longer Finger Swipe in Firefox to Move Backward/Forward

I hve a late 2009 iMac at home that I've upgraded to Lion. So far, there are only 2 issues that I'm having:
1 - When I wake the iMac from a long sleep, it doens't automatically log into my wifi network. I have to drag the mouse up to the menu bar, click on the signal icon and choose my wifi network. A few tiems yesterday, the computer stopped recognizing the network while I was in the middle of surfing. Haven't had that in a while, but the inability to log in directly after waking up remains.
2 - I use Firefox to surf. I can no longer move backwards and forwards between pages by swiping left or right. It works in Safari, but not in Firefox. Is that a new functionality that has to be rebuilt into Firefox because of Lion?

I have a similar wifi problem after installing Lion. When my computer goes to sleep or I turn my wifi off, it won't reconnect to my wireless network. I have to manually select it and then retype my wep password. It tries to connect and then says "connection timeout" and the login failed, however, even though it says that it was unable to connect, it actually does connect and I get regular connectivity. Frustrating.
I have a 15" core i7 2010  MBP.
@Caleb was here.  I had the same issue before I switched to Lion, turned  out it was some issue with my router.  I bought another router and I  haven't had the issue since.  Try changing from WEP to WPA (you should  do this anyway) and see if you have the same issues still.

  • Lacie Speakers and Mac Pro Firewire problem waking from sleep and loud feed

    Lacie Speakers and Mac Pro Firewire problem waking from sleep and loud feedback. I had a powermac before this with the speakers and it worked fine. But the mac pro is having these issues. Is it the firewire port or the speakers or (and most likely) just a firmware glitch with mac pro? Anyone else see these issues?

    Here is my audio settings. For some reason I wish I could remember what I did. It was actually the Apple Store tech in the Unversity Village in Seattle that gave me the idea and I swear I had to change the settings in MIDI setup. Now that Leopard is out it seems the MIDI stuff has been redone. I included screenshots of my MIDI setup as it is currently to see if you see something different on your computers. Let me know!

  • How do I investigate and solve Pages, Notes, Mail intermittent 'offline' and failure to synchronise problems with Mountain Lion after waking from Sleep

    When I wake up my iMac after sleep, i get a variety of intermittent - but mostly FREQUENT and FRUSTRATING problems including:
    Notes app is offline - as stated by a message in the window bar. If I close Notes and reopen, the app appears to be online. However, Notes does NOT update with items I know are on my iPad or in the web iCloud. Furthermore, if I create a new note on my iMac, the new Note does not upload to iCloud. This is IRRITATING!
    Pages and Numbers - similar situation. I can edit a Pages or Numbers document on my iMac (stored on the iCloud). But then the Pages doc doesn't ALWAYS get uploaded to the iCloud. Then I end up with conflicted versions of the file in the cloud, my iPad, and the two iMacs I use. Then I get CONFUSED and FRUSTRATED. For example, consider these steps:
    Open Pages on my iMac, edit an iCloud file, then save and close file
    Pages/File/Open/iCloud - I note in the iCloud file list the edited file has a little 'cloud' icon against its name. From experience this warns me of TROUBLE - namely that the file has NOT yet been uploaded to the iCloud. However, I just checked the new Beta iCloud on the web, and to my surprise, the file edited on my iMac is apparently in the icloud. But now, I edit the iCloud version, and the changes DO NOT appear on my iMac pages version. OK I realise its in Beta version...
    So now, I open my iPad, open Pages. I note the iCloud version of my edited document updates to my iPad, as indicated by a blue download line. 'It just works' as Steve Jobs claimed at Apple Developers Conference a couple of years back. Again, the edited version form my iPad is now 'up in the cloud' correctly....
    Oh - and now mysteriously the Pages version on my Imac has become synchronised with my iPad/iCloud version! Luck ... but that's about all I can say. It doesn't always happen. I'm LUCKY today.
    Meanwhile, the Note I created on my iMac (Item 1 above) has still not yet appeared on my iPad or iCloud... even though I HOPE it would be given that Pages on my iMac, iPad and iCloud are chatting nicely now! The Note says it's in my iCloud - but  NOT. Similarly, notes updated or added on my iPad, which appear in iCloud, are NOT on my iMac.
    Mail - last but NOT LEAST! and MOST INFURIATING!!! My Gmail, Vodafone NZ and Orcon accounts (in Mail) are all active and receiving after the night's sleep. However, my iCloud mail account has the dreaded offline.
    The message on Mail is "There may be a problem with the mail server or network. Verify the settings for account “ICloud - [email protected]” or try again. The server returned the error: The server “p03-imap.mail.me.com” cannot be contacted on port 993." Despite the message, mail was received this morning at 8:59 am ... some time before I woke-up my computer (a late start this morning).
    If I sent an email FROM my .me iCloud account TO my Vodafone account, the message whooshes away, it's in my SENT box. But it doesn't get delivered to my Vodafone account on my iMac Mail, or anywhere else, Despite the message being listed in my 'Sent' mailbox!!!
    In contrast, a message sent from my Gmail account to my Vodafone account (in Mail) gets sent and received almost instantly on  my iMac and iPad.
    All of the above mishaps are extremely frustrating, as I rush off from working on my iMac at home, get to my iMac at work and find documents I have been updating on my home iMac not available correctly on my work iMac ... or even my iPad. I expect these things from Apple to 'just work'. Furthermore, emails I THINK I have sent (as indicated by them appearing in the Sent folder on my home iMac) ... have not actually been despatched.
    Frankly, I can no longer rely or recommend the Apple iCloud stuff, so I am converting more and more to relying on DropBox and Google.
    These problems only became apparent since I updated to one of the Mountain Lion versions... I can't say when.
    Oh - if I shutdown and restart the computer my Mail works OK. Guess what, I don't want to do that each time I want to use Mail!
    Technicals:
    My iMac is connected by Ethernet cable to my Apple TimeCapsule. The TimeCapsule is connected by Ethernet cable to my Orcon Genius Modem.
    Obviously, my internet connection is A-OK, as I am able to use Firefox to make this posting!
    Mountain Lion 10.8.4
    iMac 27 inch, mid 2010, Intel Core i5 16 Gb

    I've returned to my sleeping iMac after a few days away. Tis time, ALL MAIL accoiunts are offline. I will follow you next set of instructions. In the meantime, here is the DETAIL from MAIL CONNECTION DOCTOR:

  • Problems Waking from Sleep

    Symptoms: For the past 2-3 months I have been having difficulties waking my 13in MacBook Pro (purchased May 2010) from sleep. The problem came on slowly, but then started to get worse and worse until every time I open my computer lid I have to manually restart (hold down button in upper right corner of keyboard). When I open the laptop, the fan always starts going, but the screen remains black. Sometimes when I manually restart, I get the hazy screen with the progression of vertical bars across it and then within 1 minute, my computer restores itself to what I was working on before entering sleep mode. However, now it mostly involves a complete manual restart.
    Genius bar diagnosis and treatment: When I brought it in 2 weeks ago, it was presumed to be a software problem. My whole computer was erased and restored back to factory settings. The problem persisted, though it was not as frequent as before the system was reset. I brought in my computer again two days ago and this time they kept it overnight to run full diagnostics and look at the hardware. Nothing was found to be wrong. They say the next step is to send it off to look at the Main Logic Board, but I would like more opinions before I pay that hefty price.
    Past history: in the 2 years since I have had the laptop, the link cable to the hard drive has needed to be replaced twice. Additionally, (probably unrelated, but who knows), my charger short circuited on me about 6 months ago.  
    Perhaps this indicates mishandling, but I am extremely careful with my computer. I transport it in a hard case shell along with a padded Incase. Being a college student, I need a personal computer and I treat my Mac very well with all necessary precautions. I am more than a little upset that having made such an investment for an Apple laptop that now Apple is not holding up their end of the deal.
    Help, please!

    Me three; I just got my pb, so I was worried that this was a hardware flaw. You've both had yours for some time, I take it, and this just started happening (presumably, right after an OS update)?
    I always closed my G3-500 iBook lid and tossed it in my work bag with hardly a care, and it never disappointed me by failing to wake up in exactly the same state in which I'd left it -- until the day it bit the dust, almost a month ago. The PB has really been a disappointment so far in that regard. Seems like every other time I close it, when I open it up again it's mysteriously switched itself off.
    I will try the old CmdOption+PR and see if this happens again afterward.

  • Upgraded to Lion & can no longer finger swipe for/backwards between pages. Is there a fix for this?

    Title says it all. I just upgraded to Mac OS X Lion, and can no longer use a finger swipe, whether one or 2 fingered, to move backwards an forwards between pages. I can still do so in Safari, but not in Firefox 5.01, my preferred browser, any longer. Doesn't matter if I try using one, two or more fingers
    Is there a fix for this? Thank you.

    If you download this program http://blog.boastr.net/?page_id=1722 (better touch tool), you can make your own swipe gestures.
    However, I have been able to three-finger swipe forward and back on webpages by going to ''system preferences'' > ''trackpad settings'' > ''more gestures''
    and checking the box at ''"swipe between pages"'' and selecting ''swipe left/right with 3 fingers''

  • Imac 3.06 ghz problem waking from sleep

    I've got my IMAC which I leave on and is set for the default settings for the display and computer sleep modes. I'm finding on some occasions the computer and display won't wake up and come out of sleep mode. On some occasions it does. I'm using the bluetooth keyboard and mouse that come stock with this IMAC. When this happens I have to force shutdown and then restart by holding the power button down til it turns off and then starting it up again. On many occasions I've been able to get it out of sleep even after it's been overnight yet I'm regularly having this problem. Can anyone advise if there's a fix to this and how I should deal with it.
    Thanks

    If what arnie suggested does not work, you could try performing an SMC reset: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3964

  • I have the latest firmware... still having problems waking from sleep

    First off, I want to say that I have the latest firmware updates and have had them for a few months: SMC version 1.4f12 and Boot ROM version MB11.0061.B03.
    The problem I have most often when trying to wake is that the password dialog will come up, I'll enter my password, and then the MacBook will just go back to sleep! Sometimes the screen unlocks for a few seconds and then it goes back to sleep completely (i.e. backlight goes off), and sometimes the password dialog just goes away and I get the spinning beachball on a black screen indefinitely.
    Is anyone else having this problem? Is there a fix? Am I NOT actually running the latest firmware?

    Try resetting the SMC (I would also repair permissions before and after - in disk utility)

  • Can iMac not waking from sleep be caused be a corrupt file

    I have had my 27" iMac from July of 2011 (running Montain Lion, 8 GB RAM, 2TB hardrive, 3.4 GHz,Intel i7) for over a year and a half and ever since I bought it, it has had a problem waking from sleep.  I can hear the computer running, but when I click the mouse, keyboard, or power button, it stays asleep and I am forced to do a hard shut down.  Apple has been trying to fix the issue, but to no success.  They have replaced the hard drive, logic board, usb ports, RAM, mouse and keyboard, but it still happens.  They finally threw in the towel and are replacing the machine.  They offered to transfer all of our files (jpgs, mp3s, docs, videos, etc), but one thought occurred to me... what if the sleep issue is caused by a corrupt file?  I highly doubt that is the case, but wonder if any of the experts out here would know better than I.
    If we didin't have the data transfered, we would just keep it on an external hard drive instead.  But, I would assume that it wouldn't matter if the files were on internal vs. external because either way, the computer would access the files.  That being the case, if the sleep issue was caused by a corrupt file, the computer would still access it on the external and the sleep issue would resurface.
    So, 2 questions:
    Can a corrupt file cause the sleep issue?
    If it is true that a corrupt file can cause the sleep issue, would it matter if the corrupt file was accessed from an external drive vs. internal drive?
    Thanks so much!

    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether your problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login. 
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
    Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
    When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
    If you are prompted to log in, type your password, and then hold down the shift key again as you click  Log in.
    *Note: If FileVault is enabled under OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode. Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.  The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.

  • Mac Pro restarts instead of waking from sleep

    Since installing 10.5.6, my 8-core Mac Pro (early 2008) has lost the ability to wake from sleep. It seems to go to sleep pretty quickly (if a little faster than before), but when I wake it up by pressing a key on the keyboard, I hear the Mac startup chime and watch as it restarts.
    I've manually shut down and booted up a few times now, and the sleep misbehavior continues.
    Anyone else? My 10.5.6 MacBook has no problems waking from sleep, only the tower.
    --Chris

    Well, I thought this was resolved a couple of weeks ago after reading a suggestion that called for doing a controlled shutdown, then unplugging everything including power, waiting a minute, replugging only power, and starting up, using the power button on the front to sleep and wake up. It seemed to be waking instead of restarting, and was working normally for about three weeks.
    As of today, I'm back to restarting when I try to wake. I have tried the unplug-everything trick again, and have zapped the PRAM multiple times (seriously, though, does that EVER work?). Nothing helps.
    As mentioned above, I'm already on the BootROM version that EFI Update 1.3 provides, so that's not an option.
    Thinking the next stop might be the Genius Bar, in hopes those guys have seen this.

  • When waking from "sleep" screen turns grey under the pointer and the computer is effectively dead. Have to hold power 'off' for five seconds to regain computer.

    When waking from "sleep" the screen appears normal but, the pointer leaves a trail of grey as it moves and the whole screen will turn grey if I keep moving the pointer. The computer is effectively dead. Have to shut down by using power off for six seconds and then re-starting. I know little about computers!

  • New MBP BUG!!!!!? mag safe and waking from sleep..............

    I have found that if you are running on battery power, and then put the computer to sleep, that if you plug in the mag safe power whilst the computer is asleepit will refuse to wake up and require restarting. Not a massive issue but i would be interested to see if anyone else is experiencing this small bug?

    It is possible that the difficulty you are experiencing waking from sleep is related to the "safe sleep" feature. I, too, had some difficulty waking my MBP from sleep (though I didn't specifically notice any link between these difficulties and the power adapter). Since I disabled safe sleep, I have had no more problems waking from sleep.
    Information about the safe sleep feature (which backs up open files and settings before your computer goes to sleep in case of a loss of power during sleep) is here:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302477
    More information about safe sleep is found on at least two discussion posts:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=1546493&#1546493
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=1136215&#1136215
    Finally, to hit the key point of these two threads linked above, you can turn off safe sleep by opening Terminal and typing:
    sudo pmset -a hibernatemode 0
    I hope that helps!
    Take care.

  • Since updating to Lion the iMac won't recognise the external hard drive (maxtor) when waking from sleep mode,

    Hi All, Since updating to Lion, my imac won't recognise the ext HDD (Maxtor) when waking from sleep mode, I have tried another port, diisc utility (Ext HDD not listed in here) but nothing works. I now find that I have to restart the imac to get the drive recognised..which is fine until the imac goes into sleep mode then I lose the drive and have to restart etc etc.....anyone suffering same issue.  The Ext Drive worked perfectly until the upgrade..

    Thanks for this, and apologies for delay in replying...in between seeing your post I backed up the ext hdd to another mac and used the disc utility to erase and repair and then re mounted the ext hdd. OK.  I have then tested the ext hdd being recognised when waking from sleep mode a few times and everything appears to be fine. If this doesn't work (long term) I will follow the instructions as you have suggested....
    I now have a new problem with my HP printer (Photosmart Plus) which is not being recognised by a new wireless router..Ok whilst the router is switch on and I have reconfigured the printer..but when the router is switched off overnight and then switched back on...I get a 'printer is not connected' message and have to go through the re configure routine all over. I am minded to think this is a router problem as the same issue is happening to my wifes Mac Book Pro (which is only a few weeks old)...any suggestions..

    Same here on an older iMac since Lion. Thanks for the uncheck wake for network access tip though, it doesn't do it either in that case, I will leave it that way.

    The message that comes up when I click on "TomTom Home Install" is "You cannot open Home Install because Power PC applications are no longer supported." Does this mean that the TomTom, which is absolutely vital to my life - well, not literally but you know what I mean - can no longer be used with my MacBook Pro?
    What that means is that is can't be used with Lion 10.7.  PowerPC was the chip Apple used up until 2006 when they switched to Intel.  At that point, they created the Rosetta emulator to allow for PPC support for 5 years.  They finally dropped the support with the release of Lion.  It will only work with OS X 10.6 or earlier.  The other option is to purchase a new GPS, which can be had for $100 for a decent one.

  • My MBP doesn't remember my Time Capsule wireless network when waking from sleep

    My MBP (OS 10.5.8) doesn't remember my Time Capsule wireless network when waking from sleep.  Thus, every time my MBP wakes from sleep, I need to select the Airport icon in the upper menu bar, select "Join other network", enter SSID and password.  This is very cumbersome.  And, I never had this problem when I was using the ISP's provided wireless router/gateway/DSL modem. Adding the Time Capsule and using it to generate the wireless network has introduced this problem. 
    It appears that this problem has to do with the hidden SSID.  I don't need the lecture on how hidden SSID provides no serious security benefit.  That's why I have the WPA2 encryption.  I'm interested in a solution that will allow the Time Capsule to generate the wireless network, maintain a hidden SSID, continue to use WPA2 encryption, but have my MBP recognzie and autoconnect to this network.
    Solutions I've alread tried:
    1. Open Network Preferences
    2. Select Airport from left hand column (and ensure Airport is at top of that list)
    3.  Select Advanced
    4.  Delete all Preferred Networks.
    5.  Apply settings.
    6.  Restart computer
    7.  Return to Network Preferences and from Advanced page, manually add my network with hidden SSID and WPA2 password
    This solution works fine as long as I don't take my computer elsewhere and connect to another network.  As soon as my preferred networks list gets another network, my MBP stops finding my TC network.  Since I take my laptop to a lot of places (it's a laptop, after all...) this is a problem.
    As I say, prior to adding the TC on my network (and using it to generate the wireless network), my MBP had no problem keeping 50+ preferred network names/passwords in the Preferred Network list, but always automatically finding/connecting to my home network without the need to "Join other network."  Thus, I assume the problem lies with the Time Capsule.
    Any ideas?

    LaPastenague, thanks for weighing in.  Didn't know that the hidden SSID capability was not IEEE standardized, and thus different devices will handle hidden SSID differently.  With my admittedly limited knowledge of how SSID/hidden SSID works, I'm still a little confused as to why my MBP would remember the generic router/gateway's hidden network, but struggle with the TC's hidden network.
    To my knowledge, when an SSID is broadcast by a base station (Airport, wireless gateway, etc.), a connecting device (like a laptop, iPad, etc.) detects this broadcast--this would be a passive reception of this SSID signal.
    When an SSID is hidden, the base station does not broadcast its identification.  Rather, a connecting device must transmit the name, and when the base station recognizes the broadcast, the connection is made. That's what you do when you select "Join another network" and manually enter the SSID.
    The idea with OS X's Network Preferences is that these steps, whether for hidden networks or broadcast SSIDs, become automated.
    Where is the potential for a different chipset between the TC and the previously used wireless router/gateway to alter this functionality?  Shouldn't the selection of an SSID by the MBP to broadcast to seek for a base station be a function solely on the MBP?  And once broadcast by the MBP, the TC should detect and reply? 
    Basically, the MBP can connect to the hidden TC manually just fine.  The MBP can connect to the old setup automatically just fine.  The MBP cannot connect to the TC automatically.  Aren't these automatic connection functions solely on the MBP?
    I'll try un-hiding the network and re-verifying that the problem is exclusively with the hidden network.
