Power Mac G5 Shuts Down When Waking From Sleep

I picked up a Power Mac G5 for a song at work. It had OS X Tiger 10.4.11, 1 GB RAM and 160 GB HDD, I've since upgraded the RAM to 2 GB, the HDD to 1 TB, and installed OS X Leopard 10.5 from an install disk I had bought when it first came out, and then upgraded to 10.5.8. It works and does what I want it to do.
It refuses to wake up from sleep since I first brought it home.
When it goes to sleep, the power light pulses like it should. However, when I move the mouse or press a key, it does a hard shutdown imediately. I've explored the suggestions here and searched on the internet for a solution.
Here is what I have done:
1.     Unplugged everything but the keyboard and monitor
2.     Replaced the keyboard with another white one that had never been used
3.     Replaced the battery on the Logic Board
4.     Pressed the SMC button on the Logic Board
5.     Did a PRAM reset
6.     Erased, partitioned the disk, and reinstalled Leopard from scratch
There are no extra programs loaded, only Leopard and the programs that came with it.
I've changed the Energy Saver Preference Pane to never sleep:
This is not going to kill me if the best option is to never sleep.
Everyone have a nice day.

It is on an APC ups, so it could be a flaky power supply. At least it doesn't do any spontaneous shutdowns, yet, so I can live with it. If it dies, I will buy a new MacMini.
I had a similar sporadic problem with my G5 on a UPS which was failing. The surge on wake was enough to sag the power causing the PSU to kill the power supply. The UPS finally tanked and getting a new one cured the problem. You might see how it reacts on normal mains power as an experiment.
Also, never underestimate the capacity of a G5 power supply to accumulate dust, which reminds me that it is time I blew out my power supply dust, since it's been about a year since the last cleaning.

X230 shuts down when return from sleep mode

Hi,
a week ago I am facing with a problem - I am entering the laptop in sleep mode, just closing the screen, and when I open the screen (expecting that the laptop should wake up) it starts usual OS boot from scratch, not hibernate.
How to troubleshoot?
win7 x64
As I remember about 2 weeks ago I installed new VMWare player, latest power manager drivers.

Hi Barabas,
Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
I’m sorry to hear that your Lenovo ThinkPad X230 is restarting while you try to wake it up from sleep.
Go to control panel -> Power options -> Click on choose what closing the lid does (on the left side of the window) -> Select sleep -> OK.
If the above settings are as recommended, update your BIOS and Intel Management Engine firmware to the latest versions from Lenovo Support page. Enter your MTM number in the “Quick Path” and download the drivers.
Try reseating your memory. Try running the system with only one memory if you have multiple RAM in your system.
Hope this helps!
Best regards,
Mithun.

Safari shuts down when I try to do anything connected with bookmarks...

I can't import any of them from IE nor add new ones...What to do?

There are experienced and helpful people here who run Safari under Windows. Be patient--this isn't chat and Monday mornings tend to keep people busy with work.
Allow me to offer a suggestion that might help you get noticed by the right contributors: Before 15 April 2011, there were separate forums for the Mac and Windows versions of Safari. The new forum software unfortunately lumped a lot of stuff together. So....
...were I using Safari for Windows, I would insert "Windows" in every title I posted here so those people most experienced with it can see your post at a glance, rather than having to open the hundreds of new posts every day to find the 20-40 that are about Safari for Windows.
For this thread, the title could look somthing like this:
safari (Windows) shuts down when i try to print
or
safari for Windows shuts down when i try to print
Hope this helps,

Why is my phone shutting down when the battery is @ 94% doing anything with it? Is the recent upgrade a chance to get us to buy and Iphone 4?

My I phone 3ga 16gb shuts down when I open any app and surf any webpage unless plugged in to the charger. I have 94% battery and as long as I don't do anything with the phone except answer it when I get a call it will stay on. I recently upgraded it to the 4.3.5 os and was wondering if that is my problem? if it is how do I get it back to an older operating system?

Highly unlikely that 4.3.5 itself is the problem as there would be millions with the same problem... there are not.
Restore your 3GS from your backup. If still a problem, restore as new, i.e. without your backup. One of those will most likely solve your problem. If not, you may have a defective battery.

Macbook Pro 5,1 issue with shutting down when lid closed - sleep issue

Here is the issue I hope someone has seen and figured out the cause. This is on a Macbook Pro 5,1 (2.8 Ghz Unibody). This doesn't appear to be the random shutdown issue.
My issue is when on AC power and you close the lid the mac sleeps. The light will blink indicating its sleeping. But at random time frames it shuts down. You open the lid and have to power on from a cold boot. Now if you hit sleep from the apple menu then close the lid everything is fine, it will sleep until the lid is opened. So its only when the lid is closed. And its random, sometimes it will stay in sleep mode for a few minutes or hours. But at some random point it will shutdown.
Any thoughts???
Thanks
jim

Hi and welcome to AD!
Try a SMC reset.

Boot Problem! Slow start up, shut down and wake from sleep mode.

I have a MBP late 2009. I used it a long time whit Snow Leopard, few month ago i did an upgrade to Mavericks.
To start up it takes 30-40 seconds until appear the apple logo. Then 2 minutes more to start up the sistem.
When I wake the machine from sleep mode it takes 40 seconds to be working.
Shut down 40 seconds.
Even sometime it get frezze using only Safari.
Things I have tried:
Reinstall Snow Leopard (clean install)
Install Mavericks (clean install)
Replace the HD
¿Any idea?
Sorry for mi poor English

Chepoka,
have you ensured that all of your installed software is compatible with Mavericks?
If you boot into Safe mode, does it still take 40 seconds to awaken from sleeping, or to shut down? (It will take longer to start up in Safe mode because it will perform “sanity checks” on your boot disk.)
If you have a bootable external disk with Mavericks installed, use Startup Manager to boot from the external disk. Does it take just as long to boot, awaken from sleep, and shut down from the external disk as it does from the internal disk?

Shuts down when put into sleep mode

Any idea why this is happening?
When my ipod touch locks itself or if I put it into sleep mode, it will not wake itself up with the press of a button - instead, it restarts (black screen with apple logo in centre).
It is only 12 hours old and was perfectly fine when running on the factory 1.xx software, it has only started happening since the 2.1 software was installed.
Since, I have Restored it through iTunes which performs another clean install of 2.1 and it is the same still
Weirdly, while it is connected to my PC through the USB cable, it behaves perfectly (waking up from sleep instantly with the press of the home button), but as soon as I disconnect it from the PC, it starts playing up again.
If I set the settings to never lock, it performs brilliantly which is annoying as I now have a taste of what this device can do, but I just cant put it into sleep mode.
Any ideas on what I need to do? Or is it a case of returning it to Apple?
Thanks for any response

Is the battery FULLY charged? If not, charge it and then see how it reacts...make sure Wi-Fi is off while you do this--I've noticed weird things when it's docked and plugged into my TV (with the new dock) and wi-fi is on--I get battery messages randomly and it eventually shuts down (even though it's plugged into a dock with power, that came from Apple and is the "latest and greatest"...)

G4 shuts down when trying to sleep or restart

Hello,
I've looked around on the forums but can't find the same problem as mine. When I try putting my G4 to sleep, it powers off right away. Same thing when trying to restart, it just shuts down. If it hasn't been on too long, I can press the power button and it will start. If it has been on a while, I have to wait 15 minutes or so until the power button will work. I tried replacing the PRAM battery and resetting the PRAM.
I'm running 10.4.11. Gigabit ethernet G4 running a single Sonnet 1.8Ghz, with 1.5GB RAM. Boot ROM 4.2.8f1. I have two hard drives, one 120GB and one 160GB. Haven't changed any hardware recently.
Is my power supply going bad? I replaced it about 3 1/2 years ago.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

MacBook Pro shuts down when put into sleep mode

Every time I put my Mac into sleep mode (plugged in or not, charged or not), it shuts itself down, and I have to restart it. I just got it (brand new) in August, so I know the battery shouldn't be bad.
It's been doing this for about a week... I just changed to Snow Leopard yesterday, and downloaded the software updates and everything, but it still shuts down.
Anyone know what I can do (short of sending it to Apple) to fix this?

Okay, well I already used smartsleep.
It fixed the problem I was having, but now my macbook started having the same issues again this weekend. It's happened twice tonight in the span of 3 hours.
Do I need to uninstall SmartSleep then?
And here is the report I get when the macbook reboots:

10.5.7 Shut down when put to sleep

I updated my macbook pro sr to 10.5.7 today and noticed that when i close the lid, it shuts down after about 5 minutes. My battery is about brand new with under 60 cycles on it. I am wondering if anyone else can verify if this problem is only mine or something others are dealing with. I am sure that this started today after the update, as I had the computer asleep all day yesterday while at school. BTW, the mac is unplugged when it shuts downs. Thanks for any feedback.

Here is a log of what happened last night. It shut down randomly today also but there was no error report that I could find. I deleted the plist file as suggested but have not yet restarted the system. I am trying it now. Hopefully you have some ideas from the log. If you need more info out of it, let me know. What I have gathered is firefox is what is crashing. Just updated that same day as 10.5.7 I believe. Will see if it still shuts down with firefox off. Thanks for your help again Yang.

Z1 shuts down when unplugging from power

Dear Sony-Members,
I have bought my Z1 some days ago. Every morning I wondered why my phone is shut down. Today I noticed why. I played around with my wallpaper (so not much CPU used) and then unplugged it from power. Immediatly it shuts down. Everything else works fine.
This just happens when it was a long time connected to the power (8 hours over night) - so every morning.
Some details:
Root: no
Android: 4.3
Build: 14.2.A.1.136
Device: C6903
Updates: the last available in my country installed
Can anyone help me?
Much thanks in advance!
Patrick

IMac shuts down when put in Sleep mode

Computer works fine but when I put it in "sleep" mode in shuts down and cannot be restarted without unplugging and starting over. Once started it works fine again until the next "sleep".
Anything I can try before backing everything up and heading for the Apple store ?

Disconnect all devices except for the keyboard & mouse if you have not done so.
Try this:
Change the energy saving options, to put the display to sleep and the computer to sleep at the same time.
Enable (check mark) put the hard disk to sleep when possible.
Lock the padlock.
Optional: Repair permissions &/or restart.
==============
Check your Energy Saver settings to make sure they are correct.
If your computer came w/a remote, test the remote sleep option to determine if your issue is repeated.
