Can't wake Pismo from sleep - no green light

I have a Pismo G3 all working perfectly with a new harddrive new ram etc, but I have a intermittent problem that when I leave the computer alone it will go to sleep, the screen goes black and the green light on the hinge will pulse up and down as it should, and if I wake the computer it pops back to life as it should, except sometimes when I come back to use the computer the screen is black BUT the green light is OFF, no pluse and the computer is unresponsive and I cannot wake it up? the only way I know it is still on is the fact I can hear the hard drive and in the end I am forced to do a hard reboot????
Any ideas anyone?

Bluefusion,
This is a known problem not only on the Pismo but even some of the later models...powerbook wakes from sleep with a dark display.
One workaround some have found useful: Just close the display and wait until the sleep light indicates normal sleep, then open the display.
Here is an extensive tutorial for wake-from-sleep issues:

  • MB can't wake up from sleep anymore

    Hi,
    Since 1 month or so my laptop is not able to wake up from sleep when I open the lid. The screen just stays black and I have to do a hard reset in order to use the computer again. Called apple help center and they made me repair permissions on the disk utility as well as re-installing mavericks, but it didn't change anything. This problem occurs maybe 4 or 5 times out of 10. Before the last update of mavericks I didn't had this problem.
    Do you have any idea what could be going on ?
    Thanks !

    Step 1
    Take all the applicable steps in this support article. That's the starting point for any further efforts to solve the problem. Please read the whole article carefully (some of it is hidden by disclosure triangles) and don't skip any of the steps, including the ones under the heading "Additional troubleshooting." If you don't understand any of the steps, ask for guidance.
    Step 2
    If you're running OS X 10.8.5 or earlier, from the menu bar select
               ▹ System Preferences... ▹ Accessibility
    If the checkbox at the bottom marked
              Enable access for assistive devices
    is checked, uncheck it and test.
    If you're running OS X 10.9 or later, select
               ▹ System Preferences... ▹ Security & Privacy ▹ Privacy ▹ Accessibility
    If any applications are listed on the right and have a checked box next to them, uncheck all the boxes and test. You may first have to click the padlock icon in the lower left corner of the window and authenticate as an administrator to unlock the settings.
    Step 3
    This step must be taken as an administrator. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.
    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    In the Console window, look under the heading DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION on the left for Diagnostic and Usage Messages. If you don't see that heading, select
              View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar. In the search box in the window's toolbar, enter "powerd" (without the quotes.)
    You may see one or more lines like this:
    com.apple.message.signature: Platform Failure
    If you do see that, and you did everything in Step 1, then you're dealing with an internal hardware fault. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service provider.

  • X200 - Can't wake up from sleep

    I can, but my laptop can't
    When my new X200 has been in sleep mode for a longer period of time, (>10 min)  It won't wake up.
    I haven't noticed if it happened every time, but last time the fan came on, but the half moon status led was still lit, and nothing else happened.
    Each time it has happened, the screen doesn't turn on and nothing happens, whatever I press. I have been forced to hold down the power button until the laptop has turned off.
    I got a tip from a support worker (my space-key had started squeeking within a week) that I should install the latest fingerprint-reader software. The problem was that I already had the latest version.
    Has anybody else experienced this, and maybe got a solution?
    Regards 
    TJMacGyver.

    I have exactly the same fault in the wild. X200 - XP Pro - SP3.  It appears that the issue occurrs when the computer is resumed after having "powered down the hard drive" whilst locked and on-screensaver.  When you wake it back up again it just brings up a blank background but does not bring up the Ctrl-Alt-Delete screen so that you can log back in.  The only way I've found so far to bring the computer back to life without restarting is to RDP to the laptop , and log in as the currently logged in user.  This forces the "Computer is locked - press control-alt-delete to unlock" to display on the laptop screen, and after disconnecting that session on whichever machine you've used to RDP to the computer you can sucessfully log back in locally to the machine itself.  Great news if you have a networks worth of machines around all on the same domain and configured for remote access.  Not such good news if this is the only machine that you've got.
    Anyone got any ideas?

  • Can't wake Mac from sleep.

    This is a new problem. Yesterday, when I tapped the keyboard to wake my iMacG5 (Dec., 2004), she went black. ON button no help.
    Unplugged power cord, replugged, then ON button. She fired up.
    Instead of putting Mac to sleep at the end of the day, I shut it down. This morning, used the ON button to get it going. No problem.
    But later, when I used Sleep, the same thing happened. Touching the keyboard did not wake her up. Black screen again. Unplug and replug again.
    Any ideas or does this require a trip to the Genius bar?
    Thanks!

    Unplugging and replugging essentially resets the SMU, so it seems the you are at the beginning of a power/thermal problem. See if you qualify for Apple's Repair extension programs, they will say that it's only good for three years after the date of purchase, but try a little gentle persuasion and see if you can't make them help you.

  • [SOLVED] Can't wake up from sleep!

    Hi!
    I installed arch on my Acer Aspire 3810T. I run it with gnome 3, for more detail. Whenever I try to put it to sleep mode (either through the button or through the menu) it goes correctly to sleep mode (I see the led blinking in orange, just like it does on Windows, screen goes off, etc). When trying to wake up the LED turns back on, lasts about 1-2 seconds and it shutdowns itself making that terrible sound of the disk, just like when you hold down the power button to force shutdown it.
    This has never worked on linux on this computer. I have run Ubuntu on a wide variety of computers and I never had problems putting the computer to sleep. On this laptop it just doesn't work on any distro. What logs should I review?
    Thanks!

    I had a similar issue with a Dell Mini Inspiron 10 - the solution was to disable Intel Speedstep in the BIOS, and the problem was resolved. Maybe it is the same issue here?
    Take a look at the following article:

  • TS1367 I am asking this question about my 27 inch iMac Desktop Computer. I normally use my Laptop and very seldom use the desktop but was going to download the new software earlier today. I could not wake it from sleep.

    The other evening we had a storm and lightening hit a house a few doors from me. It jolted my chair but that seemed to be all here. I use my laptop most of the time but since there was a software download I went to my 27 inch iMac and could not wake it from sleep. The light on the keyboard is not lit either. I have this connected to a Battery Backup Power so do not know what has happened or what to do. When I push the power button to try to turn it on nothing happens. There is no shound, no video, nothing; however the disk drive that does my time maching backup has a light on it and the other things that are plugged into the battery power pack also have lights on them. The printer is on and says it is ready to print. Since I cannot boot it up I do not know what to do to even try to get it started. I did not know what would happen if I put the first start up disk in  the external disk drive and try that or not. The internal drive is broken. I do not have any repair shops or apple stores around me at all less than 150 miles away and I am disabled with 24/7 help and oxygen so can not take it in. Are there any suggestions that anyone can give me. I have not been able to find any way to reset the backup battery pack either. It is a Tripp-Lite. Any help anyone can give will be greatly appreciated. Thanking you in advance for your time and trouble.

  • OSX 10.7.5 How can I make my computer wake up from sleep?

    My computer won't wake up from sleep whether I put it to sleep by a hot corner or by closing the lid.  Has anyone a solution, plezase?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    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 the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, or by corruption of certain system caches. 
    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. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and  Wi-Fi on certain iMacs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • When Windows 8.1 wakes up from sleeping, the PAC Proxy can't work normally

    Hi,
    I'm using Toshiba WT8 Win8 Tablet.
    When my tablet waked up from sleeping, the PAC Proxy can't normally work on the Modern UI IE, when I reconnect the WiFi, it will be ok without any other action.
    Windows 8.1 and all drivers are up-to-date.  No any anti-virus software. 
    There is a post I asked 4 days ago but can't solve my problem: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows8_1-networking/windows-81-wake-up-from-sleep-lost-pac-proxy/a19efe8e-70e4-4eed-a614-f11f62562a68?rtAction=1425959337664

    Hi,
    According to your another thread, your current Tablet system is Windows 8.1, isn't it? When this probelm occurs, could desktop IE works properly using PAC Proxy?
    In addition, open Device Manager to check Wireless adapter driver settings, make sure " Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power " is unchecked.

  • My mac won't wake up from sleep, what can i do

    My mac won't wake up from sleep, what can i do

    Can you say more about thermal cut-off?  My mac has beene having problems waking from sleep and I have noticed that I hear the fan running ever so slightly in the background.  When I depress the power button for a second the fan shuts off. 
    Just open the side an dlook to see which fan it is.  The lower fands are easy to see as well as the video card fan.
    When you push the power button and that fan goes off is the machine now fully off?  No power light?  No fans spinning?   Now drives spinning? 
    I don't recall what I did when my machine shut off with the one exhaust fan running.  I think the obvious thing I would have tried would have been to push power button for 10 seconds to shut it down fully.  That or actually pull the plug.
    When this happens the only way to use my Mac is to restart via the power button.
    Then I guess that answers the first question.  It must have turned off since pushing the power button again was the normal reboot.
       I can't find any helpful info on thermal cut-off so I was wondering if you could explain what it is, what causes it, and more importantly what I can do to fix it?
    That was my term for it.  What else could it be?  Without its fan video card would get extremely hot and throw off all that heat.  Whats the point of having temperature sensors in so many places other than to use that info to protect the machine against damage due to overheating?  So my assumption was card gets hot, sensor (probably the pci slot 1 temperature sensor) senses it, kills the machine.  It's also seems logical to me that the circuit(s) handling temperature overloads would want to keep a exhaust fan running to dump the heat out of the machine to further protect any damage from the heat.

  • G3 Bronze Keyboard won't wake up from sleep

    I have a hand-me-down Powerbook G3 Lombard 400 Mhz (bronze keyboard), with a dead main battery. It works great with the power adapter, and has just enough charge for me to move it from one outlet to another without shutting down. I'm trying to set it up for use as an Itunes server connected to my home stereo, which is fine because it will always be plugged in.
    The problem is that the laptop won't wake up from sleep. This morning I noticed that the display and HD seemed to be sleeping, but the fan/processor buzzing noise was still going (there were no lights other than the little green light on my PCI card). I couldn't figure out any combination of keyboard or power key strokes that would either wake it up or shut it down. I unplugged it, waited half an hour or so, and it finally shut down. I then plugged in, hit power, and it started and booted perfectly (after the expected disk check for abnormal shutdown). Then this afternoon, the whole thing was sleeping (I think -- no sound, no lights other than PCI card light), and again it wouldn't wake up. Again, I unplugged, let it power down (waited for the PCI light do die), the replugged and it started up just fine.
    Any idea what gives? Or what I do when it's sleeping? Right now, I have changed the power saving settings so that it never goes to sleep, but I'd really like to let it sleep when people forgot to turn it off...
    thanks!

    aldpol,
    There are many causes for sleep issues and you just have to wade through them one at a time.
    You can always force a Lombard or newer powerbook to shut down by pressing/holding the power button until it turns off. As you have noted, this is an undesirable process since you can corrupt the HD.
    I would start the troubleshooting in this manner:
    1. Unplug all peripherals (PC cards, mouse, everything).
    2. Reset the power manager:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1431?viewlocale=en_US
    3. Now put the powerbook to sleep via the Special menu, wait a minute or so, then wake.
    4. If no success, restart while pressing the shift key until you see the message 'extensions off', then release. Now test sleep/wake.
    If number #3 is successful, one of you peripherals is probably the troublemaker. If still having issues, please post back with more details if possible.

  • Hp laptop doen't wake up from sleep

    Hi. i bought an hp 250 laptop 7 month ago from budapest and during this 8month i have done every thing to make it usable but still its not usable. first for long time i used days and nights to try different operating systems and googling solutions and downloading and installing drivers and making sure windows and drivers are up to date. then I gave the laptop to support service and after long time i noticed they just changed motherboard but problem is same as before. i gave back the laptop for second time and they changed the ram that was also faulty but again the sleep mode problem was same. i tried changing operating system and updating drivers and bios again but the problem was same. so for the 3rd time i asked hp central guarantee service to help me this time with different repairer and i explained the problem and gave it and after i got back the laptop for 3rd time they said they changed motherboard again but again nothing problem changed about the sleep.shouldnt the guarantee change the laptop if they cant make laptop usable after 3 times i gave it to them? i think i will be affraid to buy any thing with hp label for my whole life now. please help me or let me know if i should just throw it away.

    Hello all- I haven't seen a resolutoin posted on this so wanted to include my laptop which has a similar problem.  It's a Toshiba Satellite L655D-S5145 running Windows 8.  This is an intermittent problem and so far has been unpredictable in terms of repeating it, but when it happens essentially it will not wake up from sleep (or some unknown locked state) when the lid is opened from a closed position.  Sometimes the fan can be heard running, and the 1st 3 lights are on as white.  The normal sleep state has the 1st and 3rd lights white, with the 2nd one slowly blinking orange.  The basic symptom is that the screen stays blank and I at first thought this was an intermittent monitor/hardware problem, but I am now thinking it is some type of subtle software or driver bug.  If anyone runs across a definitive fix please post it.  Doing a System Restore or the like is not an option for me at this point. ps- Toshiba support, if you're listening I am 100% confident that someone on your support or engineering teams knows what this problem is so please speak up 

  • Early 2008 Mac Pro wakes up from sleep with Mavericks.

    Ever since I upgraded to OSX Mavericks on Tuesday, my early 2008 Mac Pro keeps waking up from sleep mode every couple hours. It goes back to sleep again on its own though after a minute, so I'm thinking it's some kind of new automated feature that I'm not aware of. With the Mac Pro being fairly loud when it wakes up from sleep mode, it woke me up three times last night! Is there some kind of option in the system preferences that I'm not aware of that can deactivate this new behavior? I usually only shut down my computer once a week, and keep it in sleep mode when I'm not using it most of the time, but I'm going to have to start shutting it down every  night now to keep it from waking me up throughout the night...

    Hello MARl0,
    You may want to disable the Power Nap functionality, if available, in System Preferences -> Energy Saver.

  • Macbook Pro wakes up from sleep when express card inserted

    Hi,
    my macbook pro (no unibody, 10.5.7) wakes up from sleep when I have my express card 34 (Hama 16GB) inserted. Is there any trick to disable wake up when a drive is inserted? I tried to eject the disk before going to sleep with a shell script but it automounts the device... I attached my log... I hope somebody can help! Thanks a lot!

    Hey, thanks 4 your response... Well I figured that out... I hoped that there was a way to prevent system calls, regarding devices, to wake up my macbook pro... something like: forbid interrupts while asleep
    If you ever hear of a way to fix it please let me know...
    I think a solution would be to disable automount on the express card device... I use it for my time machine backup and really DON'T want to remove the card every five minutes...
    Cheers, Philipp

  • My MacPro will not wake up from sleep after the 10.8.2 upgrade.

    Since latest os upgrade to 10.8.2, my mac will not wake up from sleep.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything. 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 this 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 login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • IMac G5 iSight will not wake up from sleep

    This has been happening to me for some time.
    Occasionally my Mac do not wakes up from sleep. Instead it hangs!
    Here how it goes:
    I press a key on keyboard; my Mac wakes up, but screen remains black with only mouse pointer. I cannot see login window.
    And Mac stays this way for hours. No matter if I press a key, click a mouse.
    The only remedy is to press power button and to shut it down.
    Then I have checked console.log. Nothing spectacular. Here is log from last accident:

    Any idea what to do?

    Wait - before you take it in for repair or get put on hold with Support try this:
    Go to System Prefs, Energy Saver, then set your display sleep and computer sleep times the same. Check both check boxes too.
    Trust me, I've been working on this problem with Apple and checking the discussion boards for over a year now. I've had my logic board replaced, power supply replaced, been through about 8 Apple techs and tried just about anything you'll read on these boards or get told to do by a tech. If you notice about every 4th or 5th page has someone posting about this problem. The above suggestion is the most recent thing I tried (from reading posts here in this forum, not from an Apple Tech) and it has come out of sleep for the past 30+ tries without a problem. This is not to say this is IT(the final sovle), because it has been known to go on a good run for a week or so and then come up again. This 'fix' however, has been the most promising. If it continues to work, I will let Apple know and hopefully they can fix the bug. They have all sorts of case history with me on this problem.
