Does wake from sleep seem a little different in 10.5.6 from before?

I've noticed that wake from sleep seems a bit different than before. I use my MBP in closed-clamshell mode. Connected are the aluminum Apple keyboard, a Might Mouse (not wireless), and a 20" Apple Cinema Display.
What I've noticed is that upon waking, the backlight comes on (the screen is blank), then there's a slight delay, the display shows everything as it was before sleep, then it flashes blue (my background color) and refreshes, showing what I just saw. It's basically doing the same thing twice -- I guess it's being very sure to check to see whether a display was connected during sleep. There also wasn't the wakeup stage where the screen is dark but the backlight is obviously on.
Has anyone else noticed a change?

Hey guys I am new here but not new to macs. I have been using a mac for about 2 years now and when I saw the new Pro's I knew I had too have one. So far I haven't experienced any of the problems I keep hearing about in this forum which I'm glad. Unfortunately I am one of those guys who obsesses about the littlest things and can't let go until I find closure. That being said just about every issue that I have seen on this forum with the new MacBook Pro I have thoroughly checked mine to make sure it doesn't have it. So far so good. So yesterday I followed the update to 10.5.6 and everything seems find with the sleep accept the sleep light indictor doesn't seem to go out completely when sleeping. It dims to a very faint level but you can still see it. Is this a big deal or nothing to worry about?

  • More trouble with AVCHD (seems a little different from others though)

    I am trying to "log and transfer" my video from a Canon Vixia HF200. The video is in AVCHD format. It pulls up in the browser of the Log/Transfer just fine. Then when i add a clip to the queue section the Status thing spins for a second then just freezes. It then says "1 clip queued - idle." where do i go from here? It never completes the task or gives an error until i try to click the pause button, only then does the little "!" symbol pop up. Does anyone know why this isn't working? or what i'm talking about? i'm trying to explain my problem as best i can.

    I too have had Log and Capture issues importing AVCHD files from a Sony Produo Memory stick using a card reader. If the files are less than 4 minutes they import normally. If I try a file even as long as 6:49 m:s it seems to stop loading although the grey progress bar has progressed all the way across. The end result is the file is not transferred. and it is reported as idle. I have chosen the AIC and plain stereo preferences as I have referenced your ( Tom Wolsky's) book on FCE4. I am importing to a Capture Scratch disk on a fire wire external Western Digital 1 Terabyte HD. I even copied the entire Memory card successfully onto the WD HD as per the book but couldn't convert it with the Log and Capture process. I don't know what Perian is.-Joe

  • HP Envy 14 (2020NR) - randomly missed keystrokes after wake from sleep (on battery power only)

    While running on battery power, sometimes when I wake from sleep, keystrokes will randomly be missed. It doesn't always happen, and I need to do more experimentation to figure out just how often it occurs. To fix it, I just reboot the computer (while still on battery power), and the problem seems to be gone.  It can also be fixed by simply plugging in to A/C power. I am using Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit.
    I have seen similar threads where people say that repeated keystrokes are missed, or rapid keystrokes are missed -- but so far those threads have remained unanswered, and my problem seems a little different in that no one else has mentioned a correlation with running on battery power. The problem never occurs otherwise, for me.

    If you are still under warranty you need to return the laptop for service. If not I am afraid it is a motherboard issue requiring replacement. You have done all the diagnostics a professional would do. The fact that the battery works in another computer tells us it is not the battery.

    I have noticed my computer will fail to wake sometimes. This update also seems to have affected the use of external monitors, and this function too is acting strange.

  • Canon LiDE 100 does not respond after wake from sleep

    I have a Canon LiDE 100 flatbed scanner. I constantly put my iMac to sleep and only ever shut it down once every few weeks.
    When the computer wakes from sleep the scanner does not respond. Image Capture lists the scanner in the device list but reports the following error;
    "An error occurred whilst communicating with the scanner"
    I have to unplug the USB cable and plug it back in for it to work (or restart the computer, both always work).
    Since I only moved to the Macintosh in July I have no idea how to uninstall drivers to give myself a fresh start and the scanner does not come with an uninstall utility.
    Any suggestions on how to fix this little problem?
    Thanks.

    I am going to respond to my self and say I am nuts.
    Canon does not seem to have any uninstaller for this scanner on their site:
    http://www.usa.canon.com/consumer/controller?act=ModelInfoAct&tabact=DownloadDet ailTabAct&fcategoryid=351&modelid=17104
    Which is rather odd since they have installers. this is different from most of their other older scanners. But if you just plugged in our scanner and things worked in OSX, which it should have, then you should be OK.
    However I can confirm that others see this issue (like my dad) and here is the official Canon response to the issue:
    +Dear XXXX:+
    +In some cases, coming out of sleep mode may not properly reinitialize+
    +the USB bus on Macintosh Operating Systems. Unfortunately, the only+
    +work around when this happens is to restart the computer.+
    Of course this in not exactly true as logging out and back in fixes it.

  • TS4080 apple thunderbolt display image on display intermittently goes dark, does not wake from sleep after clicking mouse or keyboard, but there is "bonk" sound after clicking mouse or pressing keys. Rebooting by pressing the power button resolves issue.

    My apple thunderbolt display (which I purchased 1.5 years ago; OS 10.7.5 Mac Mini) intermittently goes dark, does not wake from sleep after clicking mouse or keyboard, but there is "bonk" sound after clicking mouse or pressing keys, so am thinking it is a hardware problem with the display. Rebooting by pressing the power button turns the screen back on, but the same phenomenon has occurred several times. Could this be a software issue, or do I need to have my display repaired? Your feedback would be appreciated.

    Hi ED, tough to tell, but it does sound like it's waking with the bonk, just not displaying.
    Long shot but...
    I wonder if it's a variation of this, of which I've seen many different symptoms...
    Resolution
    Move the mouse or trackpad cursor over the center area of the login window so you can see the user icons. Click on the icon of the user that you would like to login as, type in the user's password, and press Return.
    If the login window is configured to show only the name and password fields, type in the user's name and password into the fields, and press Return (even if you cannot see the rest of the login window).
    Additional Information
    This issue will not occur if the display is not sleeping when the account is logged out. Use the steps below to confirm that the account is not configured to log out automatically while the display is sleeping:
        1.    Open System Preferences > Security & Privacy > General.  Click the padlock to unlock the preference pane and enter your admin password. Click the Advanced button at the bottom, then see if the option "Log out after N minutes of inactivity" (where N is the number of minutes) is enabled.
        2.    Open System Preferences > Energy Saver and configure Display Sleep to occur after the account is logged out, by dragging the slider to a number of minutes that is greater than N was set to in the previous step.
    Important: If automatic log out is not needed, disable "Log out after Nminutes of inactivity" in System Preferences > Security & Privacy > General. This will also prevent the issue.

  • With Mountain Lion MacPro does not wake from sleep

    I have installed Mountain Lion (10.8.1) on a Mac Pro (Model appeared early 2008).
    However when the system is sleeping, Mac does not awake from sleep by pressing any key of the keyboard.
    The keyboard is inactive.

    That's interesting, I don't use the Apple->Sleep, but I tired it several times with 10.8.1 on my system and it woke up in a timely fashion.
    There is something strange going on with it being intermittent for me, a combo of always & intermittent for you.
    I suspect there is some combination of circumstances that's not obvious that's causing it.
    I've looked through the logs and don't see any clues.
    I submitted a bug report some time back.
    You might consider submitting one as your situation is a little different and you have a circumstance that always causes the problem.

  • Macbook does not wake from sleep properly.

    My macbook 2.0ghz core duo, 10.5.6 does not wake form sleep like it should. it behaves similar to when it runs out of battery with a pale screen and a loading bar, like it is restoring the system from the sleep image, although the battery is full. Has anyone else had this problem and been able to sort it out? Perhaps there is something wrong with the battery controller. Any advice appreciated as it is quite annoying.

    I am having this same problem. The computer itself is awake, but the display stays blank. I can restart it by pressing the power button then 'R' then 'return'. This just starting happening frequently recently for me. It may be the result of one of the more recent security updates.

  • My wake-up/sleep button does not work, but the serial is out from Apple list to repair. What i do now?

    The wake-up/ sleep iPhone 5 botton does not work, but the serial number is out of list to recall from Apple. The problem is so similar the described in the article in the site. I want to repair in the program, like other iPhones, how it is possible?
    Thanks.

    Then there isn't anything you can do about it then. Your only choice is to pay to have the device fixed or replaced. Apple is in charge of that, and as I said in the other thread, this is not Apple you are talking to, we are users like you and cannot do anything about that.

  • MacBook Pro display sometimes does not wake from sleep, display is blank

    My computer has been getting a lot of this weird issue that it is asleep, the light is pulsing. But when you go to wake it up, the keyboard lights up, caps light key will work, but the display is blank, nothing makes it turn back on.
    I had a friend using it who I let use the guest account, but since the issue kept happening and all the guest account data kept disappearing, I had to create her an account. It's annoying, and sometimes if I catch the crash happening while the unit is display active, I get the color wheel and all the apps freeze up really bad. I'm lucky if I can save my work.
    Sleep during this crash will also produce the error. Most recently I was trying to connect my bluetooth keyboard and it kept giving me an error. So I tried to turn off the bluetooth, no dice. Went into the root user, still no dice. Figured maybe the device didn't get reinitialized upon wake from sleep properly, put the unit to sleep and ding dong, wont wake up again!
    From the console logs I've been able to find this string:
    5/23/10 1:00:54 PM kernel Sleep failure code 0x00000000 0x21000000
    I've not used any hacks or sleep widgets, so I don't know what the issue is.
    Everytime I reboot from this I fsck the drive and repair permissions. I've tried zapping the PRAM also, next stop is delete the power management plist and reset the SMC. Who knows if any of it will work?
    Anyone have any ideas?

    Btw the machine is 10.6.3 I hadn't updated my settings before I posted the initial question.
    I was actually going to suggest that, but noticed in your later posts you had updated the info.
    As for the smc and pram both were done today, so we will see what the story is. I also deleted the energy .plist file and had it recreated from within root.
    Just curious why you're working in root? You should be able to do anything we've discussed from an admin account, and there's lots of potential for mishaps in root.
    As for dlrunning DU, I was under the impression that it just ran fsck through the DU GUI. At least that's what it looks like when you view the console log for DU. I'll give it a try though.
    I'm just repeating what Apple suggests.
    I'm just worried that the little glitches are adding up to something catastrophic.
    AppleCare.

  • MacBook Pro 10.5.2 Screen does not wake from sleep

    This is probably the 80th time this issue has been posted.
    I am hoping someone at Apple or otherwise can give me an answer on it.
    What is the deal with this? Why can't my Macbook wake properly?
    I thought this stuff was supposed to be "Reliable" and "easy to use" ?
    I love OS X, but this wake from sleep issue is making me second guess my decision to switch.

    I've been experiencing this issue 2-3 times a day, and it bugs the **** out of me.
    I've followed the steps on the link provided.
    I note there is no noise or visual indicator to suggest the reset took place (possibly because tehre is no power source there?) but I'll report back if I have any further hangs on the screen when waking up.
    Cheers!

  • Why do USB drives plugged into USB hubs make my Mac Book Pro (Retina late 2013) wake from sleep?

    I have 2 x USB hubs, a Logitech USB 2.0 hub and a Broway USB 3.0 hub. Tested both and both seem to be the cause of my late 2013 Mac Book Pro waking from sleep. I ran syslog to find out why (syslog |grep -i "Wake reason") and the reason I got back was "kernel[0] <Notice>: Wake reason: XHC1" - this means nothing to me, but it didn't take too much mucking about to hunt the problem down and figure out it was the USB hub with any USB drive attached. If the drive is attached directly to the computer. No problem, computer sleeps fine.
    This was a problem I encountered (and never solved) with OSX 10.6.8, a 2008 Macbook Pro the same Logitech USB 2.0 hub, but with different drives. I put the problem down to a bug that never got solved in an old system. But I am simply AMAZED after my update to a new MBP and new system that it is still about almost 6 years, a dozen MBP's and 4 systems later.
    The other problem is that not only does the USB drive/ USB hub combo wake the computer it also loses the drive upon sleep and mounts it again upon wake. Then repeats this process every couple of minutes. And it obviously doesn't eject the drives properly because each time I return to the computer after I put it to sleep or let it go to sleep I get a giant list of "Disk Not Ejected Properly" notifications about it. Which I'm guessing could eventually cause some file damage.
    I've tried combinations of different drives, different hubs (a Belkin and a no-name Chinese brand 2.0 hub) and the problem persists. Is there a solve to this problem? I'm surprised to see so little posts on forums about this. Am I just unlucky and got another combination of faulty/problematic hardware, or is this a real problem that exists for everyone? If not I would love to know if people have found winning combos of USB hubs and drives. But if it is, then it HAS to be solved.
    If you have a Macbook Pro, then you are limited to 2 USB outlets, this is obviously a bare minimum and I would say that 95% of people using their laptop computer in the office or at home have a hub, and very likely a USB drive attached to it. I know actual Apple reps don't really pay much attention to the community support posts, but I've got 6 months worth of Applecare left and would like suggestions about how to get Apple's attention about this problem.
    BTW Jettison (a 3rd party app that ejects drives properly before sleep) is not a solve. It is a 3rd party app that tries to fill a hole in a broken system. I don't want to eject my drive upon sleep, I want it to got the **** to sleep.

    Is there a pattern to the time of day or other detail that may be
    traced back to a OS X system cause of this odd phenomenon?
    Are there any copies of system files on any of the attached USB
    external drives? Any libraries, such as iTunes, iPhoto, etc?
    Once the drives are indexed by Spotlight, are their permissions
    ignored by the OS X? Content, if neutral, should not affect the
    wake or sleep cycle; especially if they're ignored by the OS X.
    Could there be a bad cable or other component? If so that would
    be a difficult process of elimination to detect it. Usually replacing
    most suspect components in the USB stream (external to Macs)
    is a rote way to mechanically test that idea; & not 100% sure.
    Does the equipment all have a good ground to the utility or house
    electrical field? An intermittent ground may affect more than sleep.
    Hard to say at this point. Maybe a late-night talk radio guru on
    remote viewing could peer into your situation and sleuth it out?
    Sorry to have run out of ideas, but the process must be electrical
    & mechanical to some extent. - Or perhaps odd software inspired.
    Do you have any phone-home spyware items inside, just jumping
    at the chance to spill your information? Little Snitch may help.
    PS: Perhaps the computer needs to go into Apple & have a genius
    or product specialist at AASP test the unit thoroughly... BlueTooth?

  • Mac Mini distored image on wake from sleep with HD TV

    I've got a Mac Mini that does this when it wakes from sleep:
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AlqYc8qH7ps
    The image is distorted for several minutes and eventually corrects itself. It happened in 10.6 and now happens in 10.7, it's actually worse in 10.7
    The Mini is connected to a Vizio 55" LED LCD TV via HDMI. I've had the logic board replaced twice and the RAM has also been replaced.
    If I change the resolution setting it also fixes the image.
    I was able to test it on another TV also a Vizio but different model. That was in 10.6 and the problem happened there too.
    Once the image is fixed it runs fine. Though I do find that movies play a little stutteringly particularly noticeable via slow pans but that may not be related to this issue.

  • I lose network connection after MacBook Wakes from Sleep

    I upgraded to Mountain Lion on my 27" iMac and 15" MacBook Pro. iMac is doing fine. MacBook Pro, however, when it wakes from sleep, seems to have the network untility crash.
    So the computer wakes from sleep, and the little status bar radar thing does its little sweep and doesn't just go solid. . If I click on it, it shows my Airport as connected, but after clicking, it freezes. the second to the bottom bar goes solid and the cursor becomes a spinning beachball. If I open system preferences, and select network, it freezes. The only way I can seem to get back on line is to reboot. I have an airport extreme with an older (g) airport express that I use to beam music to my stereo. The MacBook Pro is about 2009 vintage—you can still get to the battery, HD and memory—and the iMac is a bit later. One of the first 27" models, not quad core.
    Anyone else having this problem? What more info would you need to help resolve? I'm a novelist and this is killing my productivity.
