Help: Macbook goes into deep sleep instead of sleeping

Any time my Mac is supposed to go into sleep, like when I leave it alone for 15 mins or close the lid, it goes into deep sleep (hibernates). How do I fix this?
Also, it started happening after I changed the starup disk from Windows to OS X through the boot camp control panel in Windows.

Just reset the SMB following these instructions: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964 and still having the same problem. However I realized two key things:
The computer goes into Deep Sleep mode whenever I tell it to Sleep (Even if I use the Sleep button in the Apple menu)
The above only happens when the power adaptor is plugged in. When running on batteries Sleep seems to work properly
While typing this up I just realized that a widget I have called Deep Sleep for dashboard might be causing my problems, and sure enough... it is. Apparently there is a setting on there that lets you make your Mac's "regular" sleep mode Deep Sleep and I probably turned this on without realizing it. For anyone who's reading this I'll try to keep you posted on if this fixed the problem or not... if I don't post anything else on here you can assume it's fixed. Watch out if you use the Deep Sleep widget

I have a new MacBook Pro Mid 2012 and it goes into deep sleep when I disconnect if from AC power.

I have a new 13" MacBook Pro mid 2012 and it goes into deep sleep when it is disconnected from AC power. I have to press the power button to wake it up. Is this a known issue or is there something wrong with the MacBook Pro?

There are a few threads about this around. Its a known issue for 2012 non retina users, not sure about Apple. It should not work this way and Apple has not put out an update to fix it yet. Check out these threads for some workarounds. I think I saw if you reinstall and don't update one of the updates you get normal functionality back. Otherwise there are some terminal changes you can make to make it operate mostly normally. I made some changes in terminal.

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
Shut down the computer.
Disconnect the MagSafe power adapter from the computer, if it's connected.
Remove the battery (to remove the battery - click here: MacBook or MacBook Pro).
Press and hold the power button for 5 seconds.
Release the power button.
Reconnect the battery and MagSafe power adapter.
Press the power button to turn on the computer.
Still having problems? Replace steps 6 and 7 with the following:
Reconnect just the MagSafe power adapter.
Press the power button to turn on the computer,
Then reconnect the battery.
Resetting the SMC on portables with a battery you should not remove on your own
Shut down the computer.
Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if it's not already connected.
On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time. The power adapter indicator light may cycle off / on once.
Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
Press the power button to turn on the computer.

Mountain Lion crashes when going into deep sleep?

Hey guys,
I recently upgraded to mountain lion from lion on a late 2011 MBP.
I have no problems during the day time with anything, but when I leave the computer to sleep overnight it doesn't wake up in the morning.
It shuts down and when I try to turn it on it gives me a pattern of 3 consecutive beeps. Sometimes it doesn't give me any beeps and just gives me a grayed out login screen and a bar loading on the bottom. In the latter case, it does eventually wake up but with the beeps it's a no go and I have to hold the power button to restart it. I never had any of these problems in Lion. Any thoughts as to what this could be?
I tried PRAM, SMC Reset and creating a new user account. I also ran an extended Apple hardware test which reported no issues.
This is the log preceding the crash/shutdown:

I can't deal with this issue, because I like to use my macbook to charge devices overnight and that's not possible with it shutting down. So if there is no solution what's the best way to go back to Lion?
Am I the only one with this issue?
Thanks for any help.

It sure would be useful to be able to look up these Failure codes. Searching apple's site like this produces strange, useless results.
I see Failure code:0x1F006500, like the OP; googling for it brought me here.
Similarly:
I recently upgraded to mountain lion from SL on a MacBookPro4,1 -early 2008 MBP (expired AppleCare), and switched to booting off an SSD in the ExpressCard/34 slot.
When I leave the computer to sleep overnight it doesn't wake up in the morning. It is completely off, and boots from scratch when I turn it on. It can sleep briefly.
I have NOT tried PRAM, SMC Reset or creating a new user account, or run an extended Apple hardware test.
From the output of pmset -g log
9/27/12 7:39:04 AM PDT   Sleep

Strangely, there's no mention of 'hibernate' in my log files after 19:03 last night, even though I was up 'till 'round midnight.

MacBook goes into Sleep Mode w/o me telling it to

An iPod-like image pops onto my screen with "Zzzz" coming out of it. Then my computer goes into sleep mode.
This has happened a couple times. Once, I did not have it plugged in. The other time (just now), it was plugged in. Neither time was my battery even close to low power. Neither time did I come close to touching something that would put the Mac to sleep. I have checked my power settings, and they are all correct. For instance, I have the power/screen not shutting off when it is plugged in.
Any ideas???

Got the exact same problem here - I have it plugged into power and my on-power setting says "never sleep" and yet keeps trying to go to sleep (actually I think it is shutdown) when I leave it alone for a hour or two. Most of the time I have stuff running that it can't close automatically so I come back to a window full off dialogs asking for quit confirmation.
Very irritating - is my Mac just trying to be green? Is it somehow thinking its in battery mode? Is there some more obscure setting that will prevent this?
Or is it just a bug...

Why does my macbook pro safe sleep instead of sleep?

After upgrading to OSX Lion, I found the performance of my 13" Core2 Duo 2.53 Macbook pro to be somewhat slow, so I upgraded the memory to 8Gb. While this seems to have made the machine a little faster, it's given me a new problem: When I "sleep" the machine, either from the menu or closing the lid, it actually goes into safe sleep. This then takes quite some time to wake up again. If I disable safe sleep with sudo pmset hibernatemode 0, the computer simply reboots.
It seems that when sleep is activated, it sleeps for a few seconds then simply powers off. I can't figure this out. I've reset the PRAM and checked all permissions. I even removed /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.PowerManagement.plist to no avail. There's nothing obvious (at least to me) in the console either.
Logically, the RAM may be a problem, but I am loathe to go back to being so slow. the RAM was sold to me as being Apple compatible but maybe my local dealer lied to me? Perhaps it's something related to the battery?
Can anyone give me any tips or other ideas to pursue?

Same issue when I upgraded from 4GB to 8GB. I used Kingston's, and followed every Apple memory specs.
I don't know how to solve this. Already tried pmset, and other stuff. MacBook works fine, but this is annoying.
It is sleeping, showing the breathing light, but when I open the lid, light stops and have to force shutdown and turn it on again. When I start the system, it recovers files from disk, what means that it already was in safe sleep mode.

E-mail going into trash folder instead of the normal destination

Hello James.
You should ask your email service provider for support. Firefox rarely has any kind of influence over this matters.

MBA goes into deep sleep on OSX, wakes up and boots Win7??

I recently picked up my new 11" MacBook Air (1.6, 4GB RAM, 128 GB HD) and because I'm graduated student, there are a few programs that I need to run under Windows 7. So I used boot camp to install a legit copy of Windows 7. That all went fine, so now i have a nice dual-boot MBA.
Here's the problem. I know that the new MBA models have a new sleep mode when you close the lid. there's a short-term sleep and a long-term sleep as far as i know. 90% of the time i'm in OSX (10% in Win7). When I close the lid for a short amount of time (up to an hour maybe?) and then open it back up again, it comes right up, no problem. But whenever its been closed for a longer period of time and I open it back up, instead of it OSX popping back up on the screen, it starts booting Windows!! VERY frustrating! What the heck is going on here?? This happens pretty much every time without fail and is very easy to replicate, you just have to wait the requisite hour or so until i know the MBA has gone into the deeper sleep mode.
Anyone else running Boot Camp and running into this problem?

Hi kdolson,
Interesting issue you're experiencing. I have the new MBA as well, as well as several machines configured for Boot Camp, and none of them experience this issue. I've let my new MBA sleep for 10+ hours undisturbed and OSX fired right up. I'm wonder if something funky is up with the partition map on your HD.
What is set for your default startup volume, Windows or Mac? By default when you Boot Camp the machine and install the drivers/Boot Camp support files it sets the Boot Camp volume to be the default startup volume. I wonder if that's perhaps the issue. Regardless, this shouldn't happen (deep sleep the machine and have it wake to another boot volume)
It's probably worth reaching out to Apple on this.

Qosmio X500-116 - goes into deep sleep

I have had the above computer since February 2010, and over the years I have had many problems. I have been inclined not to use it as each time it gives me problems.
Today I thought I would try to see if I can find a solution. I switched on after charging the battery for about an hour and it booted up in around a minute, not bad. I updated my Norton Internet Security, this completed and I checked my incoming emails and sorted them. I left it for about 10 min (had a quick coffee). on my return the screen was blank and I just can't get the screen to come on at all. This happens almost6 every time I try to use this computer.
The only was to get things going is to hold the start button down till the laptop shuts down. then press the button to start it, It then runs through all the loading of windows files after I select "Safe Mode" I have tried all the suggestion of options and never got anywhere. If I just select restart things go back to normal. I can log in and all seems ok. and I can do what ever I need t do.
I try to keep it active, If I leave it for any time it goes back into the unrecoverable sleep.
I have run Norton "Scan Now" on both hard drives, no problems found.
One a few occasions I have seen an odd coloured screen (multicolour) not what I would describe as a Blur screen. I did wonder if it could be a graphics card issue, perhaps not.
Any suggestions?

Hi Ivan 25, thanks for your interest.
Currently I have the on battery setting:- Dim the display 1 min, Turn off display 2 min, Put the computer to sleep Never
and
Plugged in to the mains: All NEVER.
I never run it to battery only it will go into a "deep sleep" and nothing apart from a Hard shut down will allow me get it up and running again.
Plugged in to the mains allows it to keep on with no problems.
To be honest since new this has been an issue since new, but it was not so bad in the early days. Hence my reluctance to use it very much.
Sorry I did not say, it's the screen that goes to sleep NOT the hard drive.

My EE box keeps going into deep sleep cant turn on tv for ages

brightbox wont come out of deep sleep for ages

You need to give us more information, otherwise we cannot help. My EE TV has not done that, but if it is your EE TV box, have you tried resetting it? There is a reset button under the box, small, and you will need something like a pen to push it to restart and reset. You will have to put your wifi details back in etc.

My macbook goes into 'sleep' mode when my mobile runs over the bottom left corner, next to the trackpad, does anyone else have this problem?

Not sure if anyone else has this problem. I only noticed it a few weeks ago when I left my mobile on the keyboard, towards the left of the trackpad. When I started typing I accidentally nudged my phone off the board and then everything went black. I hit any button and everything turned back on again. I'll assume that it went into 'sleep' mode. Is this normal or should I be worried about the health of my mac?

I am facing pretty much the same problem ... although sometimes the click does work on other parts of the trackpad, but largely I have to stay focused on the left bottom corner. It's getting slightly frustrating esp. because I like the click better than the "tap" and my MAC is only a month old!!
Is this a software issue or a h/w problem?

Macbook goes into coma after battery drained

After going to sleep and closing my MBP lid last night which had very little power left I was expecting it to have completely drained when I opened it this morning. However, when I opened the lid (and connected the power) and tried to press the power button on nothing happend, tried different keyboard combinations with no luck aswell. The machine had completely died and there was no power to it. Taking the battery out etc didn't help either. I thought the macbook had just become an expensive paperweight. But... 20mins or so later is mysteriously powered back on restoring the session. I have repeated this again by draining the power and it does it each time, sometimes restoring the session a bit fast from 5mins to 25mins. Any ideas what is going on here?

This often happens. After a complete discharge of a battery you need to let the battery get some charge before the system will let you boot.
The reason is simple, the MBP on maximum load actually tops its power requirements from the battery. While it is very small and momentary it does happen. If it's fully discharges your MBP can't do this. And, one of the times your MBP is under heavily load is at boot time which is why it won't boot without a battery.

Update date approaching want some help before going into store

Hi my renew date is approaching (22nd of this month) I currently have 3 phones on my family plan 1 of which I do not want to have removed and have my current plan downgraded as I wont need as many minutes should this create any problems when I go to renew the other 2 lines on the phone? Thanks for any help just dont want to go to the store and look like an idiot in 3 weeks.

Well you answered part which I kinda new but I'm I able to cancel my that 1 line at the same time which would be the 20th month of the 2 year contract
You cannot cancel the 2 year contract without an Early Termination Fee (ETF) until after the end of 24 months. Typical ETF's at the 20th month mark are $75 0r $150 depending on the type of phone purchased with the original upgrade. It will probably be cheaper to maintain the line throught he 24th month.

When I start my Macbook it tries to start in Safe Boot mode and it will not accept my password. I have tried to reset the password by inserting the "Mac OS X Install" disk and restarting while pressing C but that process has no effect. The same Safe Boot screen appears and again it will not accept my password.
I am not sure what version of MacOS X I have as the disk is now in the machine and it will not eject.
Any suggestions?

You can eject the disc by depressing the track pad/mouse at startup.
Are you depressing the Shift key at startup to make the Mac boot in Safe Mode?
Here's the instructions if you have the discs.
