Black screen after coming back from standby

Hi people,
Today after I put my computer to sleep in winxp, when I tried to wake it up, it gave me this black screen(the screen is off), the sleep LED light is off, but I can hear the system running. When I close the lid, the LED light is on, but when I life the lid, the light went off again. Pressing the power button did nothing. Pressing the dimmer screen or dim keyboard buttons didnt work. I've to force shut up my computer. Please help. This worries me. Thanks.
Also another bug in mac os x. After restarting from bootcamp winxp to mac os x, my screen resolution is wrong, it has black area on the top and bottom of the screen.

Update:
My files were saved last time, but the file is not updated when I rebooted back in xp.
Today my winxp went to sleep, and I clicked the mouse a few times to make it wake up. But it froze on the log in screen, though I never set windows to log out and it always did that after I put it to sleep. Now that I think of it, I had no problem making it sleep and logging back in before. I saw this problem since yesterday. I haven't install or make any changes to my os x or winxp. My winxp is installed with service pack 2, and I haven't update it since then. I don't know if it's necessary. Any advice?

Satellite P850-30W - Fan does not run after coming back from sleep mode

I got a Toshiba Satellite P850-30W with bios 1.90.
Sometimes the fan does not run at all after coming back from sleep mode on windows 7.
This has happened twice (maybe more times without me knowing), and Ive had the computers for a month.
Normally the fan starts running when the CPU gets over 50 celsius, and stops under 50 celisus...
I tried running Prime95 when this fan-issue occured and the computer temps got dangerously high (close to 100 degree)! the fan did not start at all
...this error could potentinally damage the laptop...
to get the fan running again I have to restart windows
anyone else experienced this?
I guess the fix would be to never use sleep-mode...or toshiba needs to fix it with a bios update.

What kind of answer do you expect here in user community?
Exact info about the fault? I dont think that somebody would be able to provide exact answer but just speculations
In other Forum you can read about Satellite notebook; but is it exacts the same model?
No, it seems to be an L650 series. Its completely different series .
From my opinion its not software related problem.
BIOS issue?
Well, in case it would be a BIOS issue, the problem would appear always and not sometimes after being shut down 200 times.
It could be a hardware related issue. Memory? Maybe
In my personal opinion to get more details hardware diagnostic software should be used in order check the hardware for possible malfunction. Thats my personal opinion

TP Yoga 15 - Windows: Keyboard response too slow after coming back from hibernation

I've got the same issue as outlined in this thread for a Y50 - there seems to be a BIOS update to solve it, but what about TP Yoga 15? Quote:Simply put, In keyboard properties , the Repeat delay is default at maximum (eg, holding down a keyboard button and how fast it generates the key strokes). When the system is put in hiberanation, then turned on again to come back, the Repeat delay some how gets decreased to about 2/3 of what it originally is. https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Lenovo-P-Y-and-Z-series/Re-Y50-Windows-8-Keyboard-response-too-slow-after-coming-back/td-p/1676309/page/1

hi guys,
Can you please provide also these additional information:
(this is to check if the issue is isolated to a certain model number)
Model Number (eg. 59-xxxxxx):
Place of Purchase (eg. Amazon, Bestbuy, etc.):
In addition, the solution from this thread seems to be a good workaround (the app is for Win7 but may also work for Win8.1)
Regards

My iphone 5's screen is broken after coming back from mail in service...What happened?

I just got my iPhone back from mail in service through applecare and the screen is shattered! I refused service because they wanted me to pay for it and so they sent it back. I originaly sent it for them to fix the microphone because it stopped working, and then i got an email saying they found accidental damage. There was a picture on the support page but it wouldnt load. So what the heck happened to my iphone because I know I didnt send it like this.

sounds like in the mail it broke

MBP 17 2009 LCD does not turn on after coming back from sleep

Hi,
I feel like crying.
I bought my 1st Mac 3-4 days ago and I have not regretted anything more than this.
1st some mov files that Quicktime windows can play but Mac does not (feel like pulling my hair why as the videos with same settings taken with same camera before I got the mac work perfectly from flash drive.
2nd the nVidia 9600m stopped being detected no matter what I did, next morning it magically re-appears (alongwith many things that vanished magically for e.g. options on right clicking images never came)
3rd the MOST BUGGING AND CONSISTENT
I close the lid, it goes to sleep. It has never come back from sleep. The screen will never turn on. Then I force shut down keeping power button pressed. And even after 2-3 restarts the screen doesn't come up. I wait for 2 min and then start. It starts working.
ANY IDEA WHY?
I use a usb mobile braodband modem (Huwaeii telecom's) and have a silly feeling maybe that might case something. But even that doesn't.
My next guess is temperature. I am working in 30-40 degree celcius room temprature range. Maybe that is it.
I think Mac is overrated and it breaks my heart saying that as I spent $2300 over it which is a HUGE amount in my part of the world. I needed it for Final Cut Pro.

I am sorry I do not understand the response. You're saying this is a known issue? Or are you suggesting/asking "IF" it is an OEM issue?
Because the whole problem I have is the "IF". I am not able to comprehend what is the problem.
And Yes the machine is 6 days old. Calling technical support doesn't help.
Apple doesn't look obsessed about customer satisfaction in India (My Luck i bought it from the only iStore in my area, hope they correct it).
The nVidia 9600M is sometimes there sometimes not. Lately even simply starting the machine does not make the screen turn on.''
Is there a debugging to-do list? Oh I am so "OS X"-impaired.
Thanks,
Rachin

Blank/Black screen after waking up from sleep mode

Hi there,
So this is my first time using a macbook. I purchased a macbook pro with retina display in August of this year. I have never had this problem but after i have updated to the new Yosemite OS, my problem keeps happening. I will be using my computer to work on assignments. After, ill put my mac to sleep and close the lid screen. When i come back and turn it on, it shows a bank/black screen. The keyboard lights up but nothing shows on the screen. So i end up close my mac and reopening it again and it still is blank screen. After a few tries opening and closing, i type my login password even when the screen is black. After, i close it again and reopen it and now my screen shows my background and login information. I enter the password and it works fine. I'm not sure if this a problem that needs to be looked at? I have taken care of my computer since day 1 so im not sure why this problem is happening. Any help/input would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

Hi ellaine,
Lets check your energy saver settings:
About Energy Saver sleep and idle modes in Mac OS X
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2412
Regarding your second question, it may be that your display is set to sleep before the screen saver starts. That would cause the screen saver to never display.
Thanks,

Creative zen V+ still not working after coming back from assistance for the second ti

hallo, what thje hell is happening with creative Zen V+ I got it back from assistance for the second time and it's still not working!!!!!!!!!!! I want my money back now, I'm gonna spam the whole of the internet with this unfunny joke, what the hell I'm suppoised to do I really fed up, since I bought the unit it worked for less than one month and for another one it's been back to the assistance for two times!!!! And still it's not working!!!! Now let me tell you this creative zen V + is a worthless, costly, cheap piece of crap, and I mean crap, what the hell am I supposed to do now Send it back for the third time 249 euros for this crappy piece of cheapo plastic Please is it allowed me to send it back and having in change some olther player I don't mean it to be trendy or flashy or all of the usual marketing **bleep** coming with these, I just want a player that actually play my music, a player I can load all my music without the application to freeze, the player to freeze and me having to format and reboot again and again. Is it creative capable to accomplish such task, do they still know how to build an mp3 player that actually work without me having to buy and install windows vista Or they don't Do creative have some old player still in stock zen touch wasn't stilish but worked well until the HD dyied, zen V plus isn't working as it is supposed to do, plain and simple. What do I have to do now in case you are wondering the malfunction is still the same.

For the Zen V, as it states on the box, you need Windows XP Service Pack or 2, or Windows Vista. You also need Windows Media Player 0 or . As long as you have that, you should be fine there.
You may also have a corrupted file that is causing the problem. Try not transferring them all at once, transfer it in blocks instead. If one block fails to transfer, try and narrow it down and see if it's a specific file in that block causing the problem.
When you try it on another PC, do be sure that PC meets the system requirements, especially the Service Pack if it's Windows XP. You'd be shocked how many times people try it on a 2nd computer, get angry when it doesn't work, call tech support, and find out the 2nd PC doesn't even have SP on it.
All else failing of course contact Support. They can't help you if you don't let them know what's going on, and if you don't yell at them they'll do their absolute best, trust me.
Good luck,
Dale

X121e - Black screen after wake up from suspend to RAM

I am the owner of a ThinkPad X121e - Notebook Type 3051-5QG (AMD E350 Processor). After a BIOS - Update from 1.07 to 1.16 I have a problem to wake it up from the S3 - Suspend to RAM function.
The Notebook restarts and the fan is working but there is no beep and the screen stays black. There is no way to get it working except a complete hard shutdown pushing the on/off-Button.
Does anybody know the problem and has a solution? Or do I have to wait and hope for the next BIOS-Version to solve the problem? I would like to downgrade to 1.07 BIOS, but I am afraid that this is not possible.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Since 2012-12-02 Lenovo has published an new Bios-Version 1.17 .
I installed the update today and the problem is gone. I hope there is no new bug in this Bios-Version, but up to now everything seems to work properly.

Re: Y50 Windows 8 : Keyboard response too slow after coming back from hibernation

I also have this problem.
Lenovo Part #: 59421845
Model: 20378
Purchase from: Replacement/Exchange from Lenovo
I wish I saw this thread before I did a factory restore. Ohh well, atleast its somewhat comforting to know I'm not the only one having this issue. I initially blamed the problem on my Razer Orochi 2013, but turns out that wasn't the issue.
And I agree a proper fix is needed, wether is be some kind of BIOS or Driver update, but not some 3rd Party work around. For a $1,200+ laptop, this shouldn't be something that just get's swept under the carpet with a "temporary fix".
Please keep us up to date on the status of this issue Lenovo.
EDIT: Using this post as the first in the thread for escalation purposes - Amy_Lenovo

When I put the Y50 to sleep or hibernate and then wake it, the keyboard refresh rate defaults to incredibly slow speeds. So when I hit and hold backspace, it only removes 3 characters a second as opposed to 15-20 per second like I desire. The only solutions are to reoboot or go into keyboard settings in the control panel and save the settings again. The settings don't actually change, so just opening the settings and hitting apply is good enough to fix it. This is obviosuly a software bug and others on online forums are experiencing the same issue. If anybody else is experiencing this bug, please post here so Lenovo might take action to correct it faster. Lenovo, if you're listening, please offer us a solution.

After upgrading to 10.6.6, major problems coming back from sleep mode

I updated my macbook from 10.6.5 to 10.6.6 and now it is unresponsive frequently after coming back from sleep. The computer stops responding and I have the spinning beach ball on the screen forever. I couldn´t find any correlation with the programs I am running.
I used Onyx to clear all caches, rebooted, etc but nothing seems to help...

I have the same issue, I've found though that it seems to happen only if i goto sleep mode after logging out of my mid-2010 MBP. As long as I remain logged in and put the MBP to sleep it does not lock up with the spinning beach ball.
This lock seems to happen just as I click on my name to login after waking my MBP from sleep.
I have no peripherals, except maybe the power adapter, but it seems to happen regardless of if the power adapter is plugged in. I've done repair permissions in safe mode as well as disk scans.

My early 2008 Macbook Pro is suffering from black screen after Yosemite update

My early 2008 Macbook Pro is suffering from black screen after Yosemite update. It ran beta 5 great but failed on restart after beta 6 install. There is no cursor but I can hear the HDD spooling up. I have tried booting in safe mode, PRAM reset and SMC reset but nothing works. After the first 5 days of every now and then trying to start it, it started fine. I used the machine all day with no problems, it had rolled back the install and was back on beta 5. I decided to try the update again, the same thing happened and it has stayed black for over a week now. It wont work with a monitor either. Help!

Hello Adam,
I would try instead of installing the beta software, to install the official build of OS X Yosemite from the Mac App Store to see if that gets you passed the no video issue when updating the beta software.

I have a late 2006 iMac that has just started giving me a message to reboot after a black screen comes down slowly from the top top of the screen to the bottom. I reloaded software and restored from Time Machine, it now happens frequently. Any insight?

I have a late 2006 iMac that has just started giving me a message to reboot after a black screen comes down slowly from the top top of the screen to the bottom. I reloaded software and restored from Time Machine, but it keeps happening, now several tomes a day. Any insight as to the issue or a proposed solution?

Unplug any peripherals you have except your keyboard, reboot, and check activity monitor for apps. Keep running apps to a minimum to find the App causing the issue.

Yes, this is activation lock. Return the phone for a refund, as it is useless without the activation information of the previous owner.

My Imac 24" goes black screen after start up. Booting from original CD or CMD R don't work, both go black screen

So, yesterday while playing a game of league of legends my Mac stopped running. After I resetted it, I got black screen after it the chime + loading bal.
So far I've tried:
CMD+R => black screen
Holding shift => black screen
Holding Alt => chosing the HR, the repair disk, or the original CD to reintsall => black screen
Holding S => got to the terminal, did the check up, it said it was ok, restarted => black screen
Took off the power cable, waiting at least 15 seconds, and everything back on => black screen
Holding Alt Cmd + p + R => black screen after restart
Removed 1 of the memories, then testen, same with the other one => black screen
I'm pretty much out of ideas at this point. Anything I've overlooked?

Any white text?
Startup - Black Screen/White Text
Startup – Red Screen
Startup Issues - Resolve
Startup Issues - Resolve (2)
Startup Issues - Resolve (3)
Restart the computer holding down the command - option/alt - P - R keys before the grey screen appears. Continue to hold until you hear the startup chime for the second time.
Reset NVRAM/PRAM
Try a SMC reset. The article covers when this is required, but doing this will not affect anything.
