"Deep" sleep mode has been happening lately

My PB has been waking up from sleep in the state that happens when your battery drains completely, however, I have it plugged in to the AC, and when it comes back to life, the battery charge is close to full. What I am calling "deep sleep", is the condition where the display is just barely visible in black and white when you wake the PB up, and there is a dotted progress bar at the bottom, which advances as the PB reloads it's last awake state of operation. I am assuming this is a function of the internal battery that retains vital data when the PB sleeps automatically due to an exhausted battery. But...the battery isn't exhausted, and, the AC is plugged in.
Any ideas on what might be going on?

Well, the "Safe Sleep" mode is if your battery ever runs down to zero, so you'll be safe (no pun intended) as long as you never let your battery run down to that.
Since the safe sleep mode kicks in when the AC is plugged in and/or when your power battery (not PRAM one) is not anywhere near empty, it's not really serving a purpose in that point in time--at least, I don't think it is--since you will always have your settings saved so as long as you shut down the computer while it is plugged in and/or the battery is in.
If you're having trouble with a faulty AC adapter, or your battery (not PRAM) is faulty then you would definitely want the "Safe Sleep" settings set to default and in place. But since that's not the case, you'd be safe turning it off if it was annoying you or a problem.

Why does FireFox freeze and the only way to unfreeze it is to open the task manager and close the plugin-container.exe file??? It has been happening more and more often and it is getting VERY AGGRAVATING!!!!!

When Firefox does freeze (not responding appears in parentheses in the page tab) I am not able to access any of the webpages (the entire webpage is hidden behind a vaguely white transparent foreground) and more often than not any files I might be downloading are stopped before the entire file has been transferred - which means that I have to start those downloads from the beginning AGAIN. This has been happening for quite some time and I AM SICK AND TIRED OF IT HAPPENING!!
If it continues to happen for much longer I will swear off FireFox FOREVER!!!!! Either a program works or it does not work and lately Firefox has not worked worth a damn...........
The ONLY way to force Firefox to allow me to access it is for me to end the plugin-container.exe file process using Task Manager. Clearing there is a SERIOUS problem here that has not been resolved - why not???

The pluging container opens up unnecessary copies as the cookies/history are cleared, this is a known issue, it might be what you are seeing, and it is hoped to be fixed in some future release of firerox.
There are some hangs affecting some users, with symptoms being high cpu usage, occurring as bookmark changes or syncing is in progress, there is a work around for that.
Firefox hanging as you close it see:
*[[firefox hangs]]
* [[firefox is already running but is not responding]]

I am getting an alert in my Antivirus for Buffer Overflow whenever I launch or close my Firefox Browser. This has been happening I upgraded to the latest FF

I am getting an alert in my Antivirus for Buffer Overflow whenever I launch or close my Firefox Browser. This has been happening since I upgraded to the Firefox 15. I didn't have this problem before. I having been using Firefox since many years & never faced such an issue. But this new issue has saddened me. Also whenever I close my Firefox browser the process is not getting ended in the Task Manager. When I try to launch again its throwing an alert saying that "the firefox is not responding. You must close the existing firefox process or else restart your system". Please debug this as I have been fellow open-source lover & would be happy if you guys release a fixed update & if no one else should starts facing this issue ever again. Thanks in Advance guys!!!

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do not click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

Deep Sleep Mode

My iPod keeps going into Deep Sleep mode regardless of how much battery is left. When it turns on the battery display is a lot lower. Is there any way of stopping this?
Thanks

Smae problem here, only i have it only when playing m4b files.
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=1279629&#1279629 is what i have happening.

My (2008) macbook pro, running 10.5.8 runs for about 30 seconds and then goes into deep sleep mode. After significant difficulty awakening, it runs for 30 seconds and....start repeating here. It did this once before about a year ago.

.....and then goes into deep sleep mode. When it (finally) awakens....it runs for about 30 seconds and.....start repeating here.
And yes, I've shut dwn and restarted multiple times, rebooted in terminal mode and run fsck, rebooted and reset the parameter ram, yadda-yadda......
Anybdy got any ideas?

Power or other problems related to unexpected system sleep, shutdown, lights or fans call for an SMC reset. Read all the steps.
Before Resetting the SMC
Try each of the following steps in this order before you reset the SMC. Test the issue after completing each troubleshooting step to determine if the issue still occurs.
Press Command + Option + Escape to force quit any application that is not responding.
Put your Mac to sleep by choosing the Apple () menu from the upper-left menu bar and then choosing Sleep. Wake the computer after it has gone to sleep.
Restart your Mac by choosing the Apple () menu from the upper-left menu bar and then choosing Restart.
Shut down your Mac by choosing the Apple () menu from the upper-left menu bar and then choosing Shut Down.
Resetting the SMC on Mac portables with a battery you can remove

MSI Z87 G45 DEEP SLEEP MODE

Hi i recently finished building my comp and tried to install realtek ethernet driver, at the near end of the installation a message pops up saying
"The RealTek Network Adapter/Controller was not found. If Deep Sleep Mode is enabled Please Plug the Cable"
I went into device manager and network adapters is missing, I've looked around online for solutions and tried them such as updating bios, taking out power supply plug for 10 mins, taking out ram, taking out motherboard battery and clearing cmos all to which doesnt work. Still cant install ethernet drivers. For 2 days i been looking and attempting to solve this and i now think it may be a hardware problem where the lan port doesnt work and is not detected. I'm quite sad because this is my first build and i have never experienced this problem before. Also i tried installing drivers from the MSI disc using the total installer and i see that lan,storage is greyed out unable to click where chipset and audio and other utilities can be installed. I have to manually open the disc and look for the drivers in the folders.
PLEASE HELP!! What should i do??? Is purchasing a PCI network adapter can connect to internet or it wont detect? i'm not sure. I want to avoid the possibility of RMA as i never done it before and would like to avoid the hassle. THANKS

You have to run the Killer "driver cleaner" available from the Utility downloads section of the Killer website. Once it cleans up your PC, the new drivers will install.

Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

My computer keeps crashing when I use Firefox. This has been happenning for the last 2 weeks, but as of 3 days ago it's just impossible. What can I do, I keep having to reload every 10 minutes because it freezes up and crashes.

This has been happening when I'm on Facebook and playing games. It just freezes up and not even the cursor moves. I have to hit Ctrl Alt Del in order to disconnect and reload. Every time it happens I have sent report , but nothing seems to help. Yesterday I went and I cleared out all my cookies to see if it would help; but today it's impossible.

the behavior you are reporting can be many things...so lets start asking a few questions. Did you remove or add anything to your computer before all this started ?...can you temporarily disable your anti virus and try again? is IE ( internet explorer ) working fine?

I continue to receive message that "We could not complete your iTunes Store request. An unknown error occurred (4002). Please try again later." This has been happening every time iTunes Match runs in background. Any suggestions for a cure?

Re: error 4002 in itunes match do you have a solution?
Sep 23, 2012 10:08 AM (in response to matracaelcan)
Hi All,
I had this problem today myself, and was frustrated repeatedly by the '4002' error.
I have literally just fixed the issue by doing the following steps:
1: Go to the 'Store' tab and select 'Turn Off iTunes Match'
2: Return to the 'Store' tab and select 'Update Genius'
3: Wait for this to complete succesfully, the return to the 'Store' tab once more and select 'Turn On iTunes Match'.
4: iTunes Match will now go through the motions and should succeed!
I hope this helps

Hi. I have an iPhone 4 and no data plan. When I'm not connected to wifi I don't receive iMessages, but later when I do connect to wifi, I get them telling me they were sent earlier. I don't remember how long this has been happening. Any Help?

Hi. I have an iPhone 4 with iOS7 and no data plan. When I am not connect to wifi I don't receive iMessages, but then when I do connect to wifi I get the messages telling me they were sent earlier. Is there any thing I can do to fix it? I don't remember how long this has been happening but it is very frustrating. Any suggestions would be great! Thanks!!!

If you don't have a cellular data plan, then why are you expecting that you will have an active internet connection unless you are connected to wi-fi?
iMessages require either wi-fi or a cellular data connection.

That is a very good warning provided by the Download Statusbar extension. Something like that should been built into Firefox. I filed this Bug report a couple of years ago, about the lack of a warning like that. 
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=480855 
I have looked everywhere that I can think of to find a list of '''IOfficeAntiVirus providers''' ''(as mentioned in the Bug report)'' that will work with Firefox, so I can't answer that for you.
You might want to ask the developer of the Download Statusbar extension about it. He might know which AV programs are compatible with the Windows API that Firefox uses for the download scan.
