Crashes when resuming from standby with Bluetooth mouse

Unless I turn off my Logitech Bluetooth mouse BEFORE entering sleep, the Mac crashes completely when trying to wake it up. the screen doesn't turn on, unless I plug in an external display adapter -- in which case it just turns on into a blank blue desktop.
So long as I remember to turn off the mouse before sleep and back on after resuming, all is well. But it's a pain to remember and if I forget, I have to physically reset--loosing all unsaved work.
Any ideas?

if you are having a sleep issue you could possibly try this troubleshooting step of resetting your SMC http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303319

  • When resuming from standby mouse-click/keyboard doesn't work.

    When resuming from standby about 80% of the time the mouse on my Macbook Pro (Early 2011) stops working. I think it is a software issue. It appears that the mouse will do a click or click and drag but will not let go when removing my fingers. The issue only happens within 5seconds of waking up. The issue is only fixed with a hard reboot. I can bring up the shutdown menu, but am unable to slect shut down as the mouse/keyboard won't give input. This issue was present in Lion and was gone for the first few months of Mavericks but appeared again this week.
    I can freely move around the mouse cursor and enter expose with three fingers but cannot select anything.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks.

    You can use viewToModel() method to get caret position for x, y location. No need to click.

  • USB ports don't work after resuming from standby with Windows 8 on X230 tablet

    I have just done a clean install of Windows 8 on my X230 tablet.  Before installing Windows 8 I installed the most recent BIOS for this machine (version 2.50).  After installing Windows 8 I installed System Update from the Lenovo Website and downloaded all the recommended drivers and other files.  I've also installed all the latest Windows 8 updates.
    Here are the symptoms of my problem: After resuming from standby/sleep mode, my USB ports do not work.  My computer has two USB 3.0 ports and one USB 2.0 ports.  All exhibit the same behavior.  After resuming from standby mode I have tried inserting both my mouse and a USB thumbdrive, but neither are recognized.  After restarting Windows, the USB ports work again... until I resume from standby mode again.
    I hope there is a solution to this issue.  It is very frustrating.

    Thanks for the suggestion about tweaking the "Allow this computer to turn off this device" feature.  I un-checked that box for every entry I could find under "Universal Serial Bus Controllers" in the Devide Manager.  Unfortunately, the same symptoms of my problem persisted.
    I went back and looked at the README file associated with the BIOS 2.50 download on Lenvo's support site.  At the bottom of the file it gives a "Summary of Changes".  Under version 2.03 of the BIOS (the version just before version 2.50), it says:
    - (Fix) Fixed an issue where USB device might not detected when system resume from sleep mode.
    This indicates that Lenovo support was already aware of such issues.  The problem was intended to be fixed in version 2.03 of the BIOS.  However, the issue persists on my machine, even with the latest BIOS.
    Hopefully someone from Lenovo can comment here.

  • White screen when resuming from standby

    Hey,
    For about a week when I resume from standby by opening the lid I get a white screen.
    I'm using a MacBook Pro 2,7 GHz, Intel Core i7 with 4 GB ram bought in September this year (2011). Fully updated as of today.
    Basically, I close the lid of the laptop before I go to sleep and when I open it the next day the screen goes white. So far I have remedied this by pushing the power button which forces the Shut Off options to appear and the white screen is gone.
    Is this something I should be concerned about? I've read about the "White Screen of Death."
    Anyone else have this issue?

    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.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including your login items.

  • 3000 N100 lost network connection when resuming from standby

    My Lenovo 3000 N100 laptop seems to lose it's network connection when it resumes from standby.  I have to restart the machine in order to reconnect to the ethernet network.  Running WindowsXP Pro.  Any advice or suggestions?
    Thanks,
    Chris

    Sorry for presumption that it was wireless connection issues, it might work since the solution involves tweaking or changing power management settings.
    However, if does not work you can still look for the solution in that website by entering the problem in the search dialogue box and clicking "search site"
    Let us know how it went.

  • OSX crashes when coming out of standby with bluetooth mouse connected

    Hi everyone,
    I recently bought an HP bluetooth mouse for use with my macbook pro as i find the mighty mouse uncomfortable. Problem is if I close the lid and put my mac into standby I cant bring it out again and have to power it down and restart. This only happens when this mouse is connected. How can I stop this from happening? Obviously it's no problem to disable bluetooth before going into standby but sometimes I forget and that becomes a real pain when I want to start up again.
    Thanks in advance
    Simon

    Finally sorted it myself, I needed to disable the option to let bluetooth devices wake the machine.

  • Laptop Crashes when resuming from sleep

    Hi
    I am running a Macbook Pro with retina display. OS X 10.8.3 - Mountain Lion.
      Model Name:          MacBook Pro
      Model Identifier:          MacBookPro10,1
      Processor Name:          Intel Core i7
      Processor Speed:          2,3 GHz
      Number of Processors:          1

      Memory:          8 GB
    Peripherals: Magic Mouse, Thunderbolt to gigabyte Ethernet connector
    I use this machine while connecting to a network using an Ethernet cable at work. During the day, I leave the machine and it automatically goes to sleep and when I resume from sleep there does not seem to be any problems.
    The problem is when I put the machine off to sleep before going home, and then when I resume the next day; the system crashes.
    I have been searching high and dry for a solution. Some forums talk about the OS' bluetooth management having a bug, others talk about network unable to reconnect and even read something that talks about a wifi issue.
    I cant pin point the root cause of the problem nor do I have a workaround. I have to shutdown every night.
    It seems that this problem has been around for a while and it scares me that Apple has not released a fix for this issue.
    What should I do to resolve this issue?

  • Multitouch fails intermittently when resuming from Standby on Win 7 x64

    I've got Windows 7 64-bit SP1 and Boot Camp 3.2 on a late-2010 Macbook Air 13". Intermittently (about one out of ten times, and more likely if the system has been in standby for an extended period), the multitouch driver will fail to run on resume. When this happens, the [Trackpad] tab is missing from the Boot Camp Control Panel, there is one fewer HID-compliant mouse in the Device Manager, and all multitouch features fail on the trackpad (only basic pointing and mechanical clicks work).
    The only method I've found to restore multitouch functionality is to reboot the operating system. I've tried the technique described here: http://brandonlive.com/2007/02/04/macbook-and-vista-fixing-the-trackpad-on-resum e/ but with no luck.
    Apple tech support says it's a bug with the Microsoft OS and that I should contact Microsoft Tech Support for resolution, which is basically just a cop-out. Even if it is a bug with the OS, it should be the responsibility of the hardware/driver vendor to identify and report that bug back to the OS vendor.
    Does anyone know what I can do to keep the multitouch driver working on resume?
    Message was edited by: jaraco

    It seems since BootCamp 3.3, this problem was resolved. It has happened very rarely since the update and when it does occur, I can restore the mouse driver by entering standby and resuming again.

  • X61 Trouble when resuming from standby

    I own a X61-7673-7EU+docking station for nearly a year now and I've downgraded to Lenovo supplied XP Pro soon after purchasing.
    The problem I have is that once in a while, approximately every 10 or so standby resumptions, the screen will not turn on and no Fn hitting, F8 pressing or any other combination makes the screen work. The only way to solve this is by resetting which is very annoying. I should note the lights indicate the computer is back on when this happens. I also noticed this happens when the computer is used without the docking station.
    I constantly look for updates and install anything that looks even remotely relevant but to no avail.
    I would highly appreciate some guidance on how to solve.
    Thanks.
    PS. - if possible, I would also appreciate knowing why sometimes the laptop goes into standby but when I undock or touch the mouse it resumes.

    I just bought my macbook 6 days ago. Occasionally, upon opening the macbook it will not be resuming from sleep but the OS will actually be rebooting itself. This happens very infrequently. In the 6 days I've been using it (and I've been using it a lot) I've only noticed this happening twice. Though this is my first Mac, I am by no means a computer novice and I'm sure I'm not shutting down the OS, especially since I didn't have to press the power button to turn it back on. Is this something I should be concerned about? Or is it just one of those rare quirks I have to live with? Any input is appreciated. Thanks!
    MacBook   Mac OS X (10.4.8)   Custom-Built PC (WinXP)
    MacBook   Mac OS X (10.4.8)   2.0Ghz Core 2 duo, OSX 10.4.8, 80GB HD

    It really shouldn't reeboot from scratch when just waking from sleep!
    The only time it would, is if the battery power drained completely before re-charge (even while sleeping), or if it was actually shut down purposely/accidently.
    Quick question: assume you are just closing your macbook to put to sleep? Not pressing pressing power button or selcting sleep in the finder? Although you can use both the latter, they do offer opportunity to shut down 'accidently'.
    Only other though; Check the following: "System Preferences"/Energy Saver/Sleep-Schedule (=button bottom right) , here you can set scheduled start up and wake options... by default they would not be activated.
    If all above is as suggested then I suspect a problem.

  • When resuming from standby in OSX, firefox has no gesture support for scrolling, tapping to click or three finger flick back and forth in Snow Leopard

    This occurs in 10.6.8 Snow Leopard when resuming usage after the computer was in standby (closing the lid).
    I never experienced this with firefox 6. The problem arose with 7 and continues with 8.

    I'd like to chime in and add that there is currently no acceptable Font Management solution for OSX.
    Sorry, but it's true.
    Me, and every professional designer / ad agency / design firm I know struggles with this every day. In fact, most of them have resorted to the 'ol "temporarily drag said fonts into ~users/library/fonts, and then out again when you're done".
    That's no way to work.
    I've tried them all. And I know people who've tried them all. Font Book, Suitcase2, Font Explorer X, FontAgentPro, etc, etc. And they ALL have major problems. Especially when you have more than a few hundred fonts. Which most designers easily do.
    We need a robust, stable, AUTO-ACTIVATING solution ala ATM in os9... I'm not a programmer, but I gotta ask: why is this so hard?
    I've used Font Dr to check and re-check ALL my fonts. Most of which are bought-and-paid-for professional versions. I keep a bare minimum of fonts activated at startup. I've read all the "How Fonts Work in OSX" articles, and I know what the heck I'm doing! But my font life on Panther, Tiger, Leopard and now Snow Leopard has been a living ****.
    YES the Helvetica disaster is a huge problem. But I think the issue is much, much larger.
    I spend literally HOURS of billable time each week dealing with this nightmare. When it comes time to design something, and find "the perfect font" for a headline, or a logo –which is something that used to fill me with glee– I'm consumed by dread. Having to yet again wade through this depressing morass of stupidity.
    Sorry for the rant. But this issue is literally EVERYWHERE on forums and message boards, but NOWHERE in MacWorld, ArsTechnica, CNET, etc, etc. AKA the kinds of pubs that could actually hold Apple's and the other companies feet to the fire on this issue.
    Something MUST be done.
    Darnit!

  • Log-In Screen Does Not Appear When Resuming From Standby/Sleep

    We are running T400s with XP SP3. From time to time when the computer comes out of standby the login screen will not appear. You just get the background image and your mouse. The mouse will move across the screen. However there is no screen saying press Ctrl+Alt+Del or swipe a finger to login. Also swiping a finger, or pressing ctr+alt+del, typing in your password and hitting Enter does not work either. It seems to be a random but frequent occurence. The couple of T400s with Vista installed do not have this problem. Any ideas?

    After doing some troubleshooting I narrowed it down to the FingerPrint reader software.  Sure enough after uninstalling it fixed the issue but then the finger print reader is useless.  I looked at the latest Version, 3.2.0.116, readme file and it states:
    <3.2.0.116>
     - (Fix) Fingerprint Reader is not working ater 1 minute idle.
     - (Fix) Fingerprint Reader is not working after standby/resume.
    I am wondering if they are still working out the bugs, nothice the "l" missing from later. Any help would be a big plus as I need to roll out about 200 or so for my employer in the next month.

  • KT4V doesn't resume from S3 with Keyboard/Mouse

    Hi there,
    I have a problem with a KT4V, I can get into S3 state without problem and resume by using the power switch.
    However, it refuses to resume using the keyboard. I have tried setting the "wake from keyboard" option in the bios to any key or to a specific key with no luck. ACPI is ON, APM is on, the bios settings are otherwise unchanged from their default config.
    I'm using a "no brand" PS2 keyboard, which has a "sleep" and  "wake" buttons, and the "sleep" button works fine. I have tried with other keyboards (mistubishi...) with the same result. My mouse is a MS intellimouse optical on the PS2 port. The light at the tail of the mouse is off while in S3 state.
    My config is pretty standard: Windows XP SP1, GForce2MX, 512MB, Athlon 2100+... the box is otherwise stable and good.
    ok, you might say I'm being picky, but the case is under the desk and behind some casing, and it's a bit of a pain to access the power switch :-)
    Thanks
    eric

    Bet you have a power supply unit, too.
    When or how did the trouble start?
    Well, I have 2 of them. The main is Thermaltake PurePower 750W and the auxiliary (powering drives and case fans) is Hiper Type-R 480W in 3R Systems R900 chassis.
    The problem is there from the start and the same setup (except for motherboard) worked perfectly with Asus M2N32-SLI Deluxe motherboard.
    I've recently tried Vista x64 - with the same symptoms.

  • App crashes when jumping from article with video to other article with video

    I read a thread about this issue earlier today that dates back to January in which an Adobe employee said that this issue has been fixed, but unfortunately I've been experiencing it right now. I have multiple articles that include videos and another article with many large photos. When I try navigating from one article to the other the Content Viewer crashes and goes back to the home screen. According to the thread this is known as memory issue and I followed the suggestions to reinstall the Viewer and restart the iPad but it didn't help. Right now the only way to use the app is to navigate to the Cover and continue from there which is defeating the point of having a navigation all throughout the app. I can't just take out the videos or the photos to reduce the file size. Any advice? Thanks!

    Hello
    Sometimes the Adobe Viewer, or a custom Viewer, appears to crash. However, the iOS is in fact shutting it down because of a low memory state. You can confirm whether you have this issue by syncing an affected iPad to a Mac. Then retrieve the logs to see if there are LowMemory-[time stamp].log files. Here is where such log files, as well as crash log files, is found:
    Users/[user name]/Library/Logs/CrashReporter/MobileDevice/[device name]
    Look for a LowMemory log file with a time stamp that corresponds to the application's exit. Open it in a text editor and look for a line like the following:
    viewer <42d0b24207f7d625b2fefef7549afce3>   33490 (jettisoned) (active)
    The numbers can vary. However, if the line indicates that the "viewer" process was "jettisoned" while "active," the OS closed the process because of a low memory state. The most likely reason for this is that your viewer is reading into memory images that are larger than 1024 x 1024. Apple recommends against applications loading any image larger than this size as it contributes to a low memory state on the device. It can result in what appear to be application crashes. Review your folio source files and ensure that no images of greater size are used. If they are, simply resample them, and republish your content.
    The low memory state can also be the result of having too many applications running at once. Shut down applications you are not actively using to free up more memory.
    How to free up memory on your iPad
    1. From the home screen, double-click the Home button to display recently used applications.
    2. Tap and hold one of the applications until a red minus appears above it.
    3. Tap the red minus for all apps that are not currently needed.
    4. Tap anywhere above the list of recently used apps, to return to the home screen.

  • Kernel panic when resuming from hibernate with SSD drive

    i've got a the system described down below.
    And because i've got another hd in my laptop (instead of the superdrive) i need to hibernate otherwise my mac will crash after few seconds i make it wake up from sleep.
    I've removed the 2nd hd and tried hibernating and it crashes after a little while the progress bar appears. And the the "please hold the power button" screen appears.

    A lot of people with other SSD and newer MacBook Pros seem to have the same issue!

    Is there a software/setting solution or is it an SSD/Apple hardware issue??
    THANKS

    Disconnect all peripherals from your computer & try the suggestions mentioned in User Tips: Kernel Panics.
