How do I enable hibernation mode?!  Have checked the resources out there, no clue still...

So,
I noticed, when I went home for Thanksgiving, that my computer was no longer going into hibernation mode on battery.  So I entered "pmset -g" into terminal, to determine what the issue was, and these are my results:
standbydelay         4200
standby              0
womp                 0
halfdim              1
hibernatefile        /var/vm/sleepimage
sms                  1
networkoversleep     0
disksleep            10
sleep                120 (sleep prevented by iTunes, coreaudiod)
autopoweroffdelay    14400
hibernatemode        3
autopoweroff         1
ttyskeepawake        1
displaysleep         15
acwake               0
lidwake              1
I know that standbydelay is the delay for battery sleep, until it goes into hibernation mode.  Since I have hibernatemode 3 enabled, it should be fine.  However, standby shows a 0 next to it, suggesting to me that hibernation mode has been turned off somehow.  I see that autopoweroff (which is the hibernation mode for when the machine is plugged in), shows a 1 next to it, signifying that it is enabled.  And...like I would expect seeing these results, my computer hibernates fine after 14,400 seconds when plugged in...yet does not go into hibernation mode EVER when on battery.
How do I turn hibernation mode on for when the computer is on battery?  There is a 0 there, so there must be a terminal command to enable/disable it.  Not sure how it got jacked up?  It's kind of annoying, because it should be entering sleep mode after 4200 seconds to save me battery.

Thanks!

By what the terminal is telling me is that iTunes is blocking the change. So you would have to disable iTUnes and then activate Hibernation to be able to do this. However I would hesitate in doing this because iTunes is a very active program that downloads tunes to your computer 24-7 because of all those that are free and downloaded to all subscribers.

  • I am getting a warning need more space on my disk. I have checked the Console and there have been 4000 thousand messages in my system log in the last 2 days. I have emptied as many files as possible.

    Hi
    I am getting a warning on opening my mac saying I need more space as my setup disk is full.  I have emptied many files as well as my Trash.  I am planning to get an external drive for my photos, but it has been suggested that I check Console and under the system log the following message (of which they say 4000 messages have been logged in 2 days) '06/06/2014 16:08:23.341 com.apple.dynamic_pager: dynamic_pager: Need more space on the disk to enable swapping'.  This is a copy of one of the items.  It is from the system log.  I really do not think I have enough files to warrant this warning, with the exception of photos.  My storage shows 143 MB free out of 120.47. Thanks for any help.

    First off, no MacBook Air can run 10.3 or earlier.
    Secondly, are you sure you only have 143MB of storage free?  That's seriously low.  With MacBook Airs of 120 GB hard drives, or even 140 GB which is often the case when it says out of 120, you shouldn't allow your free space to go down below 20 GB.  MB is 1024 fold less than a GB.  So if you really have 143MB free on a MacBook Air, you are long past the minimum space you should be keeping it at, and need to start clearing a lot of space now*:

    I'm asking this thread be moved to the MacBook Air forum,a as we can't say for certain what you have when you post in the 10.3 or earlier forum.

  • HT3728 my airport express unit has suddenly failed No power. I have checked the fuse. Is it useless now?

    I have had this airport express for a couple of years and it suddenly just failed.
    The unit is not showing power is reaching it.
    No light
    I have checked the fuse
    Is there anything i can do or is it useless now?

    Try a Factory Default Reset as follows:
    Pull the Express from the power jack
    Wait a minute
    Hold in the reset button first, and continue to hold it in for 7-8 additional seconds while you simultaneously plug the Express back in to power
    Release the reset button after the hold period and see if the Express will restart in 40-45 seconds to a slow, blinking amber light
    If you try this a few times and the Express will still not power up, there is an internal electrical problem with the Express and it will need to be replaced.
    If you want to attempt a real longshot, carefully saw open the case of the Express along the center seam to open up the device and look for something obvious like a connector or wire that has come loose.

    After having upgraded my iPhone 4S to iOS 7.0.2, I can not turn on Wi-Fi or Bluetooth. After trying various tricks I found via online forums such as software reset, enable Airplane mode, and resetting the network settings, I have now also completed reset of the phone WITHOUT success.

    If you have tried all of the steps in this support document http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1559 and have completed all of the user troubleshooting, restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new, then make an appointment with the Apple store to have the hardware checked.

    There is no such option/setting on an iPhone to determine this. Whether you can view the attachment has more to do with your connection, WiFi or cellular, and the size of the attachment than anything else. There will be a paperclip indicating the message includes an attachment regardless if downloaded with the message or not. When connected to the cellular network, if an attachment is below a designated size the attachment will be downloaded automatically. If over a certain size, you must select the attached file icon in the body of the message to download the attachment. The size limit varies by carrier/provider.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Please take this step regardless of the results of Step 1.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    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.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

    I have installed the latest version of Apple but still can't see ICloud in System Preferences- how can I fix this?

    Lion is required to see the iCloud Preference Pane: this is an upgrade, not an update, and has to be paid for. If you want to install Lion, go to the Mac App Store and purchase and download it there ($29.99).
    First check that your Mac meets the requirements for Lion:
    Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
    2GB of memory
    OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
