Computer doesn't wake up after it went to sleep

After I upgraded my OS to Leopard, everytime it went to sleep, it doesn't wake up and need to hard restart. Anyone has the same problem or know what the issue is? I haven't had this issue before the upgrade. It has happened to me 4 times now.

Yep, same problem.
At first it seemed related to Fast User Switching. I turned it off and it seemed like the problem was solved.
That was a couple of weeks ago. Now it's back, and it happens even when no programs are running. I HATE not being able to sleep the machine.
If you haven't tried it, and you are using Fast User Switching, it's worth trying with it switched off. It might work for you. Maybe even longer than a few weeks?

    my macbook pro doesn't wake up after sleep

    I'm having the same issue. I've had my logic board replaced twice now, which I did last week and then Monday I had to take it to a Genius Bar again because my hard drive cable was malfunctioning. I don't know why it's happening but I'm really starting to get frustrated with my machine. I bought my MacBook Pro brand new last year in September and ever since I've dropped it in November, it's been really glitchy. After I dropped it, I had to replace my Logic board, graphics card, and hard drive and they covered it.

  • I bought a new album off of iTunes the wifi wasn't strong so I left my computer on as it was downloading and went to sleep. This morning I went to listen to the songs and some of the songs will only play the first 50 sec or the first minute? How do i fix?

    I bought a new album off of iTunes the wifi wasn't strong so I left my computer on as it was downloading and went to sleep. This morning I went to listen to the songs and some of the songs will only play the first 50 sec or the first minute? How do i fix it or refresh them so i can listen to them fully?
    How do I get the songs to fully play? Or can i refresh the songs and redownload them?

  • Macbook air doesn't wake up after improper shutdown

    Hi guys,
    I've had this issue for couple times in the past 8 months.
    I've consulted Apple support but doesn't seem helpful at all.
    They took my MacBook Air for invenstigation for over a week and returned and concluded no issue found.
    Hence I had to consult genius on the forum.
    I seldomly had this issue, my MacBook Air 2012 just shuts while it's in use, or while it's asleep, and I couldn't wake it up.
    It looked like dead and nothing turned it back on, keyboard nor pwoer button.
    I could only to wait for another 10 or 15 minutes, and then press the power button again.
    Usuallys it comes back from a restart and return to the login menu.
    After I log in, it shows there was an inproper shutdown.
    This kinda annoys me as I don't know if there's going to be any potential issue after my warranty expires. (still 4 months left)
    After suggestion would be much appreciated.

    Hi all,
    Thanks for the help. Sorry for the late reply as I was away from Internet access for the past week.
    I couldn't reproduce this at will. It happened again this morning.
    I was pretty sure I had the power connected, lid closed and connected to my HDMI monitor and USB mouse and keyboard. I left the MacBook Air on when I went to bed, and I had power went sleep after an hour in the energy setting.
    When I resumed my computer by pressing keys couple of times (strange, it doesn't wake my computer up with one press) on my USB keyboard, my computer went straight into the login screen. I knew it was shutting down again.
    I just did reset SMC but I don't think it helps. I'll monitor it for another week.
    I did have the crash log and will send to Apple Support for further investigation.
    I'll post it here just in case anyone is interested.

  • Quicksilver doesn't wake up after sleep

    Recently (over the past month or so) my Quicksilver G4/733 has developed a problem where it sometimes (about 20% of the time) will not wake up after going to sleep. Tapping on the keyboard to wake up, for example, results in no reaction from the computer other than my FireWire DVD burner clicking a few times. Using the power button to wake up causes the button to glow and fade out with no other reaction from the computer (except the FireWire drive).
    To get the computer to start up again, I cut the power for about a minute (usually by turning off my power strip) and then attempt to start up. If I only cut power for a few seconds, the computer exhibits the same unresponsive behavior.
    I have not upgraded my hardware or system (other than automatic Software Update) or installed any applications in the past few months.
    Thanks in advance for your help.
    Quicksilver G4   Mac OS X (10.4.6)   512 MB RAM, 120 GB + 80 GB HDs, SoundSticks, Keyspan Remote, LaCie DVD burner

    If your Mac happily goes to sleep but won't wake up--Hold down the power switch to force-reboot your machine and get it running again.
    Don't worry-your Mac isn't narcoleptic. Its Open Firmware system or NVRAM (nonvolatile RAM) is likely corrupt, and your Mac can't remember how to wake up.
    Restart your Mac and immediately hold down the Command-Option-O-F key combo until you see a somewhat intimidating command-line display that ends with the Open Fimware prompt. Type the following line:
    reset-all
    press Return
    Your Mac will reboot. Once it's running, put it back to sleep to test. If the problem recurs your Energy Saver preferences may be the culprit. Delete the com.apple.PowerManagement.plist file (go to Finder/Hard drive/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration)--don't worry, your Mac will regenerate a new one--and then restart to see if that rights the wrong.
    Still did'nt work? Might be time to call AppleCare or see an Apple Genius or a technician.

  • NEW iBook and doesn´t wake up after sleep mode!

    Hi,
    I´ve just started to use my new iBook G4 3 days ago, added my user information, and for a little while the wireless internet connection. Then, I closed the display to put it on sleep mode.....and.............it DOESN´T WAKE UP!!!
    The hard disk seems to start up correctly (the fan is on and the disk noise is ok), the Caps Lock on the keyboard is on too, but as soon as I reboot the computer, a strange beep (like a phone tone!) starts up, then the sleep light signal flashes but the screen stays black.
    I think that by now I´ve tried the most solutions (as far as I can having the black screen) I´ve read on the troubleshooting page and the recommendations posted in this Discussion chat... The iBook remains partially dead.
    Help!!!

    ummm, even when its not plugged in to the power adapter? i find that when my ibook annoyingly doesnt wake from sleep, its usually because i connected/disconnected something while it was sleeping. even plugging in the power adapter seems to affect it. the way i fix it is to put it to sleep again, and then open the lid. its worked every time so far.
    oh, and apprantly 'manually' putting the ibook to sleep does the trick (ie from the apple menu)

  • MBP wakes up after being put to sleep

    Several times the MBP wakes up after it was put to sleep, the battery runs down and it overheats inside the bag. I don't have any idea what wakes the computer, could it be the motion sensor? What can be done?

    My wife's MBP started doing this after upgrading to Snow Leopard. So, after six weeks of hearing her complain of it when she forgot to close the lid, (I realize it still wakes up with the lid down, but since she only unplugs it when she uses it, that hasn't been an issue.) she finally let me look at it. I found using her System Monitor that the active app was Dashboard. When I told her, she said "I haven't run that for months, that couldn't be it." But, persisting, I opened Dashboard to find that she had a clock that kept local time. With her permission, I killed the clock and her MBP hasn't woken up on it's own since.
    So, try running System Monitor to find out what's running after it wakes up.

  • MBP doens't start after it went to sleep (battery discharged)

    hello,
    when the battery is nearly emtpy the macbook pro goes to sleep until you connect the power cable... It worked until last week...
    Yesterday after the mbp went to sleep i tried to start the mbp (with the power cable connected), nothing happens.
    It doesn't help to remove the battery, the only thing I can do is to wait until the battery is charged to about 50%... but this is annoying and I don't like such workarounds.
    Thank you & Greets from Italy
    BleXXon

    I found the solution to my problem!
    I used in the last weeks the macbook power adapter instead of the macbookpro adapter (I thought they are equal). Now with the power adapter from the macbookpro everthing is ok.

  • External disk no longer works after notebook went to sleep

    I have a one week old hard drive I'm using for Time Machine. It's a Seagate 5400 RPM 250GB notebook drive. It's connected via Firewire. The drive was working just fine until the notebook went to sleep -- when I woke it back up, there was an error on the screen saying "Unable to complete backup. An error occurred while creating the backup directory." I tried power cycling the drive and the notebook but now all I get is "The disk you inserted was not readable by this computer" and the only options it presents are Initialize, Ignore, and Eject. Obviously, Initialize is right out, as it contains my backups.
    In "Disk Utility", when I choose "repair", I see:
    Verify and Repair volume “disk1s3”
    Checking Journaled HFS Plus volume.
    Invalid B-tree node size
    Volume check failed.
    Error: Filesystem verify or repair failed.
    I see the same thing when I choose "verify" (perhaps unsurprisingly). If it's unable to check the journal, is all hope lost? Is this something I should expect to happen periodically when the computer falls asleep?

    I was thinking about it: actually, it may not have gone to sleep. The screen went blank, but the drive had power the whole time. (It has a blue LED that was on throughout).
    Updated the Subject, although I don't know if that'll carry up to the index.

  • Wifi doesn't wake up after sleep

    Every time I wake up my iMac, there is no internet connection.  The wifi signal symbol in the upper right has full bars, and there's every indication that it is indeed connected to the wifi network and the internet - but it's not.  Even if I wait for several minutes, it doesn't come back on, so every time I wake my computer up, I have to disable and then reenable wifi, and it starts working within seconds.  This isn't too hard to do, but it is an annoyance, and I'd expect better from Mac OS.  When I'm running Windows 7 on bootcamp on the same machine, there is never any problem with the wifi after waking up, so I assume it must be a problem with Mac OS rather than it being a hardware issue.  I've got a 2011 21.5" iMac running Mac OS X Lion, although I was having similar problems when I was running Snow Leopard too.  I've tried removing all the pre saved wifi accounts through the network preferences and keychain, but it hasn't helped.   Any ideas?

    It's definitely become more of a problem since I installed Lion, it was more of an intermittent problem on Snow Leopard.  My wifi router's a brand new Netgear DGN2200, and it works perfectly with all my other devices, including this iMac when it's running Windows 7.

  • Macbook doesn't wake up after automatic sleep

    I've got a problem with my macbook. Whenever it goes asleep from not using it ( automatic, I set the time at 15 minutes ) I need to push the power button for like 2 minutes before it wakes up again. I've many friends who have macbooks, whenever they shut the computer down just by pushing the screen down on the keyboard, they simply need to open it again and it wakes up. Mine doesn't unless I close it and open it 2 minutes later. If I let it shut for something like 10 minutes I then need to press the Power button to have it revive. Sometime I need to press it 2 minutes, sometime a bit less.
    That was the first part of the problem. At the beginning it didnt disturb me that much so I didn't try to solve the problem. Now the infaction has mutated. Whenever I put it asleep myself or when it goes automatically I can't restart it. I press the power button but whenever it restarts ( still need to push the power button for 2 minutes ) the screen recovers ( can see the recovering bar down ) and when it reaches the 3 last bar it stops, and an message comes on the front saying there is a problem and I need to restart the computer.
    It's very nasty, I can't put my computer asleep, and can do nothing about it.
    Has anyone encountered the same problem? Or does anyone know what I can do? I still have my warranty. Should I send it to apple?
    Thank you very much for your help.

    Thanks for the help

    try these troubleshooting steps:
    _*resetting the System Management Controller SMC*_
    _*resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM*_
    if that doesn't help, try booting into _*safe mode*_, then reboot normally.

  • MacBook Pro doesn't wake if left asleep too long; sleeps immediately after boot; SMC Reset / NV Reset only temporary fix

    I've tried hard to find someone else with these symptoms, and nobody seems to have a complete answer.
    After upgrading my 2008 MacBook Pro to OSX Lion, these problems began.
    Whenever I leave the lid closed for too long - not entirely sure how long, but the longer I leave it the more likely this is to happen - it refuses to wake when I open the lid. The power light will brighten, as if it were about to wake, and sometimes the screen will flash, but then it will all go black, power light and all.
    At this point I press the power button, and the power light briefly flashes, and then the macbook seems to 'really' turn itself off.
    Then I press the power button again, and it begins to boot. I enter my FileVault 2 password, and the apple logo and spinner appear, but as soon as the graphics driver kicks in (or whatever it is - the point when the shades of grey suddenly change and the brightness automatically adjusts) suddenly the mac goes straight to sleep immediately, and we're back to the same symptom as before.
    It will do this repeatedly through a 2nd, 3rd, etc power cycle.
    Resetting the SMC doesn't seem to help.
    I have managed to get the macbook to boot normally by clearing the NV Ram, and also by booting into single user mode and immediately shutting down and rebooting. But this does not solve the problem, it merely lets me boot one more time.
    Any thoughts appreciated, it's driving me mad, not to mention losing me work.

    Anyone? Is there really nobody else who's seen similar symptoms?
    I'm still experiencing this. I've discovered that booting into Recovery Mode usually works first time, but this doesn't help with my wake-up-from-sleep problem.

  • Display doesn't wake up after going to sleep

    On rare occassion, but often enough to be a hassle, my 20" apple display will stay black after I move the mouse or hit the keyboard after the computer has gone to sleep.

  • Computer won't wake up after sleep

    I've been reporting sleep problems with my iMac for a while in the past. No-one here would take it seriously (probably hardware, your reports are incidents, no-one else has these problems) so I just went away and I disabled the sleep function of my iMac alltogether, and I won't select the "sleep" button in the login screen anymore, or select "sleep" from the apple menu. No sleep no problem, right?
    Well, I bought a Macbook Air three days ago, and in those three days I have had TWO occasions already where I wanted to wake the Macbook after sleep (closed lid) and it wouldn't wake up. All I get is the rainbow mouse pointer and the Macbook is unusable unless I reboot it.
    Mind you, nothing is connected to the macbook but the power cable, and I find it hard to believe that my Macbook Air would also suffer from 'hardware problems' like my iMac alledgedly is.
    In all my time using OSX 10.4 on my 17" PowerPC MacBook pro I have never had any problems, but since switching to Intel Macs with 10.5 I have these "sleep" problems all the time.
    What gives, and can I expect Apple to do anything about this problem that I've been having since I bought my iMac more than a year ago, and is now also spoiling my MacBook Air experience?

    I have solved my sleep issue with some help from this forum. Intel iMac 20 and 24. Leopard.
    1. Repair Disk Permissions with Disk Utility.
    2. Download 10.5.6 Combo: http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/macosx_updates/macosx1056comboupdate .html
    3. Reboot, and install Combo.
    4. Shutdown. Unplug all Firewire and USB connections, and iMac power cord. Wait 5mins.
    5. Re-attach iMac power cord only, and reboot.
    6. Optional. Run a day or so without Firewire and USB items to see if sleep allows waking after overnite sleeps.
    I strongly suspect the Firewire controller is the suspect.
