Close lid, but MBP won't sleep for ten seconds or more.
Is this a new "feature?" When I close the lid of my iBook, my white light starts pulsing in about two or three seconds. When I do the same thing with my MBP, it takes at least ten seconds to pulse, indicating sleep.
Any info on this phenomenon?
Thanks!
RAM contents are now written to disk when you put the machine to sleep. So if your machine loses power or is shutdown when sleeping, the system can still be restored to its prior state.
So the delay you see when putting your machine to sleep is likely from memory contents being written to disk. I see a similar delay for a couple seconds on my MBP. I'm not sure if there is a way to circumvent this safety feature. There's more info here:

MBP Won't Sleep automatically. Sleep light on. Not pulsing. Drive spinning.
I can get my new MBP SR to sleep when I tell it to but it won't sleep when it's supposed to according to my Energy Saver preferences.
Instead of sleeping, the screen goes dark and the sleep light stays on at medium - no pulsing. I can hear the hard drive still spinning. I tried changing my screen saver to one of the original Apple settings (Computer Name) but that didn't help. I'm going to try throwing away my Energy Saver prefs.
Any suggestions?
BTW - I took a closer look and I was a bit surprised at how many posts there are for the MacBook Pro on the Apple.com discussions. The most posts per day of any model by far. I know its a very popular Mac but this model seems to have more problems than we are able to solve. That worries me. Anybody else noticing this?
-ToddI had exactly the same issue and needed three hours to find out the reason. It was the Bluetooth Mighty Mouse. I had to disselect the *third option* in the *bluetooth preferences*. I have a German-language OS X so I don't know the exactly expression but it affects the ability for bluetooth devices to weak up the system.
If you have EyeTV 2: This application must not be running. If you have scheduled recordings that doesn't matter it will record anyway: It will wake up the Mac - record the thing - go to sleep again.
I have several devices connected to the MBP: Three external enclosures with harddisk drives (2xFW800, 1xUSB without sleep function), EyeTV 610, speakers - all those things did not prevent the system for going to sleep. All those devices can be left attached - up and running. The FW harddisks will go to sleep the USB not. -
I came across this before, fixed it, and couldn't remember what I did to fix it. Now, my MBP won't sleep.
What to do?After several some time, I finally found several near-fixes and one fix that worked for me.
1. Near-fix. Remove the Maglifte adapter, then sleep your MBP in the normal fashion. This works really well, but you have to remove the adapter before sleeping every time.
2. Fix. When your MBP comes across a process it can't complete, your machine may be unable to sleep. Much of the time, it can be solved by changing the configuration in System Preferences. Check that your Sharing is toggled off; in Print and Scan, make sure there aren't any unfinished printing jobs. For me, the situation was caused by a conflict when I installed Printopia, which connects to wireless printers. -
Hi, I have the problem which iTunes cannot detect my iPhone 4s. I tried the steps you have provided in your troubleshooting, but it won't work for me because the Apple Mobile Devilce is perfectly installed on my windows. However, the driver "Microsoft teredo Tunneling adapter" has a yellow exclamation mark, which i believe means it's not installed correctly or something is wrong with it. This driver is under the Network Adapters (Please see picture below).
This is what happens when I connect my iPhone 4s to my laptop (Windows 7 Starter 32-bit)
1. The phone charges it's battery
2. I can open it in My Computer and import/export media files.
In iTunes
3. It start to sync until step 3 then stops.
4. The iPhone option with an arrow appears beside the iTunes Store, but when the arrow is clicked it disappears.
I hope you can provide me a solution for this problem.
Thanks,
RalphHi ralphagir,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
For your iTunes issue with it not recognizing your iPhone, I would go ahead and suggest deleting iTunes and all of its components from your Windows computer and installing fresh.
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
Remove iTunes and related components from the Control Panel
Use the Control Panel to uninstall iTunes and related software components in the following order and then restart your computer:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support
Bonjour
Apple Application Support (iTunes 9 or later)
Important: Uninstalling these components in a different order, or only uninstalling some of these components may have unintended affects.
As far as the arrow button that you click and the iPhone disappears, it sounds like you may be clicking on the eject button. Please take a look at the following article for information on the eject button in iTunes.
Safely disconnect iPod

Have a great day,

I changed my Apple ID to my new email address successfully for the iTunes and App store but it won't work for iCloud and it won't recognize my password. I read that this can't be done. How am I supposed to get into iCloud? I plan on getting rid of my old email address which is my old Apple ID so how is that going to work?
Same question Wish someone had replied!
I changed my Apple ID to my new email and now cannot find any way to access icloud. Unfortunately I had allowed icloud to hijack my airbook files, so of course I am afraid I will lose them tomorrow when I exchange my iphone for a new one and cannot keep an icloud account i cannot access. What a poor sync system! Really atypical for apple! -
I've set up an event and published it, but it won't allow for registrations. The SUBMIT button is grayed out. Thoughts?
The submit button is greyed out in case the registration page is being viewed in preview mode.
Please check if the following string is present in the event registration URL:
"preview=true"
If it is present, please try by removing this string.
Thanks,

my iPod touch 5th generation had white screened an it won't let me rest it by holding down the home button an the power button for ten seconds I've pulled it in to iTunes an its not being detected what can i do as its starting to over heat?
If you can't get it to shut down or restart when holding down the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons and you can't get it recognized in iTunes to restore it, the iPod may have suffered a hardware failure and will need to go to Apple for service. Someone else here may have additional suggestions, though.
There is no "fifth generation" iPod touch, by the way, just for the sake of clarity; not yet, anyway.
Regards. -

2013 MBP 2.5 i5 4Gig 500MBHDD boots slow. It finishes post in the same time as an identical MBP, and then hangs for 30 seconds on one of the ethernet adapters, before finishing the boot. Once booted it is normal. Turning off airport changes nothing. Hardline adapter is not plugged in. Thunderbolt adapter is not used. Bluetooth is off. Did this out of box. Identical MBP boots to login screen in 36 seconds. Disk repair, permission repair, and safe mode boot have
already been done, no change. Boot time is consistent. Hangs at the same place each time. Right after post. Bad adapter?
Comments, solutions please.... and so ... now a few days later, success. I ran
your software but it told me nothing I hadn 't seen
in verbose boot.
Consistently, following good post, the boot hung
for 30 seconds on the adapters, (cards, chips, NICs.
Ethernet cards, whatever you prefer to call them)
either the airport card or the hard line. It would then
proceed at normal pace to the login screen.
Since it came out of the box that way, software
conflict was not a go. I guessed glitched driver or
fetch instruction. I zapped the PRAM (cleared
NVRAM) and reloaded the OS, updates, Garage Band,
iPhoto (one of Apple's true dogs in an otherwise
rare arena) iMovie, Photoshop, Lightroom, their
updates, and my files. MBP pro now boots to login
in 31 seconds. Note I have turned off as much gee
whiz, rubber band scroll, global swiping and other
hubcaps and hood ornaments as befits how like
things ... and turned off all the Asian and other fonts
I will. ever use.
Best guess ... corrupt driver or corrupt fetch script ...
bad server squirt at factory load.
Thanks for your help, Cheers! -
My ipad 2 just went off. It was working perfectly while charging. I have pressed the power button for ten seconds and it's still not coming on. What do I do?
First, confirm that the iPad is charged and then try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad. Again, say "yes."
Finally, if the Restore doesn't work, let the battery drain completely. Then recharge for at least an hour and Restore again. -

MBP Won't sleep when the screen/lid closes...
I have had my MBP for almost a year now and my AppleCare is about to expire...
Recently when I close the screen the computer will continue to run and operate as if it was never closed and will not sleep. I took it to the Apple store and they did an SMC reset which sorta helped for about 5 hours. Now it goes to sleep but will take almost a minute at times or won't sleep at all. I was told I would have to send my computer out for a couple weeks but I can't do without a computer. Please help me fix this or help me convince Apple to give me a new computer.Run /Utilities/Console and click 'All Messages' top left then close the lid and try and put it to sleep.
If no dice open the lid and look at the Console messages - in particular look for lines including "sleepimage" and see what it says ?
I suspect there's not enough space left on your hard drive, or it badly fragmented, and the RAM sleep image can't be created or stored properly ... -
MBP won't sleep after woken up w/ lid closed & external display
At my desk, I use my MBP on an external monitor with the lid closed and the laptop placed aside. It works great because my USB keyboard and mouse will wake the laptop while the lid is closed.
However, my problem is that it doesn't seem to want to go to sleep when in this setup. I can force it to sleep via the Apple Menu, but it won't go to sleep on its on (as per power saver preferences). It will sleep the display, but the power led never goes from slid to pulsating (indicating sleep?)
Is this normal, or is there something I'm missing? I suppose it could be my mouse and keyboard constantly keeping the thing awake, but that seems unlikely.
Thanks.Seen this?
"Mac OS X: Why your Mac might not sleep or stay in sleep mode"
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1776
As well, try resetting some of the hardware involved (PRAM~NVRAM). See this Apple KB for details, etc.:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
Can't hurt to try, and apparently this has helped others recently.
Failing that, take it to an Apple Store and ask staff there for assistance.
Good luck in any case. -
MBP won't sleep, but a clean Lion install does sleep
Since the install of Lion my old MBP, the MBP won't go to sleep.
I did a clean install of Lion on an external HD and it sleeps just fine. Therefore it must be something I migraded from my old SL.
Before I rebuild my MBP is there a plist file that I can delete that might help fix this no-sleep problem?
If not, then I'll start moving forward with rebulding my external HD and then tranfer it to my internal HD.
Thanks in advance for any help!!!Thanks, I'll take a look. I killed all the pgms that my logon starts.
I also need to try to come in single user and see if that helps.
Comparing will be difficult since it looks like 10 pages printing out, but it's a good idea.
I was hoping just deleting a plist would fix it..I haven't rebuilt the system for many years, so I am also thinking about that as an alternative. I'll check the sleep function after every few apps that I add. -
MBP won't sleep when shutting lid
For about a week now, my Macbook Pro won't go to sleep when I close it.--It stays running, and gets hot.
However, using the power button to put it to sleep or choosing sleep from the Apple menu works fine.
Any suggestions?This issue has been covered extensively in Macfixit.
I would make sure though that you aren't running any applications in the background or have any third party peripherals connected when you close the lid. Make sure also the Energy Saver System Preferences Options has Wake from Sleep for administrative access unchecked. It is found in your Apple menu -> System Preferences.
If you find that you aren't able to stop it from happening, make sure your firmware version gets up to date, and your hardware test tests fine:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303880
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303081
Regardless of the Hardware Test results, call AppleCare:
