After installing new RAM module macbook will not wake without re-start

Im having a little problem with my macbook. It operates normally and the new RAM appears to function as normal except when the computer is in sleep mode, it appears to sleep as normal but when the lid is raised or the power button depressed to wake the system up it will not do so without a full re-start. Any help is much appreciated. I have tried re-setting the PRAM and performing the usual maintenance functions from OnyX.
Thank you.

Did replacing the RAM fix the problem? I am also experiencing the same issue. The RAM works great when the computer is running but occasionally I cannot get the computer out of sleep mode and must reset the entire machine. Is the only cause of this a bad stick of RAM?

  • Mac crashes regularly after installing new RAM

    My laptop crashes at least once a day ever since installing new RAM. It seems to be triggered by quitting programs, usually Firefox, Logic or Spotify. There was nothing else connected to the Mac that brought about the latest crash but I do use an Mbox 2 on a regular basis.
    Below is the last crash report and also the RAM profile. It's Kingston brand if that means anything.

    It's almost impossible to trace back the panic report to a specific cause, but it's highly suspicious that you started experiencing problems after installing new RAM.
    It's also strange that your RAM has no stated VendorID, Part Number or Serial Number.
    I would return this memory poste haste.
    Alternatively, if the DIMMs are from Kingston's ValueRAM range, just dump them in the garbage because that's where they belong. While you're there, look for any other RAM that someone else has thrown away - chances are its ValueRAM, too (hint: I have never seen a single ValueRAM DIMM work in any of my systems, so I avoid them like the plague - shame, since Kingston used to have such a good reputation).

  • After installing Exchange cu6 2 servers will not autostart

    after installing Exchange CU6 - 2 services will NOT autostart
    Transport Submission & Unified Messaging
    Both will start if I goto Services & Manually start these
    (Unified Messaging - I think that was an option on the initial install but I'm not using unified messaging anyway!)
    any ideas how to find out why and fix it ?
    ChrisS

    Hi
    They are probably dependant on other services, try delaying the startup of these services and see. I have it with one of my servers as well but since CU2. if i set the services to delayed then they start correctly.

    thanks for the help in advance
    Malith Ratnayake.

    Hello Malith Ratnayake,
    After changing the old RAM by the new one, this issue occurs?
    If the issue doesn’t occur when you change back to use old ram, I think it is the RAM hardware issue.
    Please contact the hardware manufacturer for better support.

  • 4 hrs later - Computer shut down after installing new RAM (mid 2007 Imac)

    Mid 2007 imac and I installed new Ram. It worked for 4 hrs then the Imac shutdown. The pressed power button but no power. Unplugged and replugged the power cord and 3 beeps sounded. I am wondering if it worked for 4 hrs or so, then why did it would it fail 4 hrs later?
    I am running the correct ram because in system profiler under memory - it said that everything was ok.
    Any ideas?

    or maybe the back tray wasn't tight enough?
    I re-installed it now and so far so good.... I pressed tight and in an upwards motion. We'll see what happens

  • MacBook won't even turn on after installing new ram

    I am using the 2010 MacBook (white 13 inch) I bought ram (two 2gb modules) and was going to install it. I removed my Original ram, but accidentally powered it on it the process (no ram was inside). I got a longed beep. I held the power button and shut it off. I then put the ram back in and it won't turn on. I don't hear any parts moving, no power, nothing. Yes I put the ram in right, an it's tight as can be. Its pushed in well. Help! I never put the new ram in!

  • After installing new memory modules cannot boot windows

    I have a G60-458DX with 4GB of RAM; (two 2GB modules) running Vista.  Spec's say that I can install up to 8GB. 
    After I installed two 4GB modules Windows Vista would not boot.  The power light was on but the software would not boot.  Could not turn off the power until I uplugged power cord and pulled the battery.  Put the battery and the two 2GB modules back in and had no problem with booting up the software.  The modules I tried to install were new (never used) and the same specifications as the 2GB modules.  Is there any way I can check the new modules? 

    Hi,
    If you check Page 52 of your Maintenance & Service Guide this would also indicate a maximum of 4Gb as the largest modules specified are 2GB for each slot.
    Definetely worth checking further, but I have a feeling that this apparent 4Gb limit is the problem.
    All the best,

    So I go through all six steps to unistall, and reinstall a frsh downloaded compy of 64 bit Itune from Apple Site. and reinstall again and again, went through this process 10 times still having same problem, including now also comes up with AVFoundationCF.dll missing, try to install that won't install.
    So now I can not use anything apple, iteunes, safari, update etc, nothing will work, which means I can no lobger sync or update my Iphone 4S.
    Does anyone have an answer for me????

    I'm an applications developer and also run a part-time videography business. As such, I require more than 3.12GB of RAM. That is the physical limitation of a 32bit system. Pointless to stay on 32bit if you plan on having more than that much RAM.
    I'm also not about to pay someone to fix my PC when I can do it myself. I was originally hoping for someone who had experienced the problem before to point me in the right direction so I didn't have to spend so much time trying to figure out what the issue was for myself.
    Basically, in the end the problem was caused because right at the point in time when I chose to uninstall, and reinstall; Apple released a new version of iTunes. This version in turn had a requirement of iOS 4.2 to sync with the iPhone. This is a pretty embarrassing for Apple that they would release software reliant on other software before said software was released.
    Had I realised I was downloading a newer version at the initial point of installation, this wouldn't have been an issue. I could've easily have rolled back iTunes to the previous version and gotten on with my life.
    Another issue is that iTunes is not actually a 64 bit application. It masquerades as one to allow installation on the 64 bit platform.

  • After installing recent java update, computer will not sleep.

    After installing the recent java, daylight savings, and the security update. my computer will not sleep. Does anyone else have this problem? I do have an adaptec usb2 card installed but nothing is plugged into it. Also i don't have any Ipods or external things plugged in. I have had the same setup for the past year with no problems, now it will not sleep. I have also tried repairing the permissions. Please help

    A number of sleep-related issues can appear after incremental Mac OSX updates, including the inability to properly go to sleep, problems waking from sleep, and having your display go to sleep without your Mac going to sleep. The most common culprit is Bluetooth. Try these tips to fix your sleep problems.
    WAKE UP
    In System Preferences>Bluetooth, uncheck Allow Bluetooth Devices To Wake This Computer. If you are using a Bluetooth mouse and keyboard, you'll have to wake your Mac by pressing the power button.
    FILE CORRUPTION
    Your Bluetooth preference file may be corrupt-you'll need to delete it. Turn Bluetooth off, then go to the /Users/user name/Library/Preferences folder. Look for a file called com.apple.Bluetooth.plist and trash it.The OS will create a new preference file when you enable Bluetooth again.
    ENERGY SAVER
    If you have issues with a Mac or display that goes to sleep at inappropriate times, you may have a problem with Energy Saver. Delete the following .plist files and restart:
    -/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.PowerManagement.plist
    -/Users/username/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systemuiserver.plist--
    (username is your name or System Administrators name)
    -/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.AutoWake.plist
    A restart is very important after deleting these plists. After a reboot your Mac will then generate new ones.
    Some, in these forums, have had luck fixing sleep issues downloading the Combo update from this site (yours may be corrupt), not Software Update, disconnect all firewire + USB devices except keyboard + mouse, Repair Permissions, re-install update, Repair Permissions again + try.
    Yours would be the 10.4.8 Combo update. Others reading, download the combo update that applies to you!
    Cheers!

  • X61- XPSP2 - installed new BIOS 2.19 - Will not boot on Ultrabase

    I upgraded the BIOS 2.19 and now .. my Ultrabase is not recognized (which means on CD-ROM) and the laptop will not boot when docked at all.   Even docking after boot .. won't recognize the CD-ROM and external ports.
    XP serivce pack 2 
    X 61   (and no its not the tablet)
    Latest BIOS 2.19
    Side problembutdefinately related ... I also have the newer external batter for the X61 that mounts on the bottom of the laptop ... THAT will not recognize either.  So it's def somethin with the bottom connector.
    I'm not sure what to do here at all.  Any ideas???!!!

    I agree w/Jerry and have had similar experience albeit with different software (I use Acronis True Image) but same concept. 
    Also, your model number looks a little strange.  Expect to see something like: L505-S5993.
    L305-S5955, T9300 Intel Core 2 Duo, 4GB RAM, 60GB SSD, Win 7 Ultimate 64-bit
