HP Envy shutting down after going into sleep mode

Hi. I'm not sure where to post this so I'll try it here.
My laptop shut downs automatically when it goes into sleep mode. Not right away when going into sleep mode. Maybe like an hour later after going into sleep mode.
I'm not sure it's overheating because it never shuts down while I'm actually using the laptop.
Do you guy have any idea how to fix this?

Any changes to your system before problem occurred: No

Hey Tecmo_SB_Guy,
I would suggest you take a look at advanced power settings. It can seem like the notebook is turning off when it is actually just hibernating. You can set it to not hibernate.
1. Windows key + Q to open the Search Bar
2. Type "power"
3. Click Settings under the Search Bar
4. Select Power Options from the results on the left.
5. In Power Options, Click Change when the computer sleeps, on the left.
6. Set the Put the computer to sleep setting so that it fits your usage best.
7. Click Change advanced power settings, at the bottom.
8. Expand Sleep and expand Hibernate after. If you want you can change the hibernation setting to Never by typing "Never" into the minutes field. See attached picture. You can do this for battery and/or plugged in.
9. Click Apply to save changes.
If you don't already shut it down periodically, I would suggest shutting it down at least 2-3 times a week if you use it daily. Leaving the computer running continuously can shorten its lifespan. Hard drive failures and motherboard issues are seen much more often on machines that are left running constantly. Computers get bogged down and run slowly when the memory is full. Memory only clears out and resets itself when the computer is shut down. Here is a link explaining more about memory accumulation and hardware aging.
I hope these suggestions help! Please let me know if you have any questions

What do I do if an iPod shuts down after going into sleep mode

My friends iPod keeps shutting down after it goes into sleep mode. I just fixed it up (restored it, had to dry it out after it fell into water) and now it does that. Everything else works fine but if I put it in sleep mode or put it into sleep mode it shuts down. How do I fix this because I've never seen this happen before.

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:

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"...)

Dual boot computer restarts by itself shortly after it has been shut down or put into sleep mode

Hello,
I have Toshiba Equium L40-14I (old) and dual boot Vista and Linux.
A few days ago I noticed that while in a Linux operating system and when I put it to sleep (suspend) it would do so, but then immediately come alive again. The same thing happens with the shut down option. In Windows Vista it is the same. It does shut down, but in a few seconds restarts again and shows the normal options of choosing which operating system I want to boot. The computer only stays shut if I pull the power cord (it has no functioning battery) or it I forcefully shut it by pressing the power button for a few seconds.
So far I tried this:
- BIOS: 1. Changed to default factory settings. 2. Disabled wake-up on LAN and disabled wake up on keyboard.
- Device Manager, Network adapters, NIC, Properties, Power management: unticked the option that allows the adapter to wake the computer
- Device Manager: all drivers seem to be ok
- Virus scan: although this is probably not the issue as it happens independently of which operating system I am using. I have not installed any strange programs.
- I started from the Safe mode and then shut down. Same thing happened: it restarted automatically after a few seconds.
- Disabled automatic restart on system failure. It didn't help.
English is not my first language, sorry for the perhaps unclear way of describing this issue. I would appreciate any help. Thank you.

You have done just about everything I can think of. You didn't mention doing a System Restore. If you haven't done one or even if you have, do a System Restore back to at least sometime before this started happening. If the first one doesn't work, try a different restore point and do it again. If that doesn't work, you need to consider a full HDD recovery to out-of-box condition which procedure is fully covered in your User's Guide. I'm sorry I don't have a link for it but yours is not a U.S. machine and this site is for U.S. machines. It appears to be a U.K. model with support covered by THIS site.
BTW, I wish the native Americans who post on here did as well as you have so you have to make no excuses for your English.

Computer freezes after going into sleep mode

My computer freezes after being left idle and I am prompted to restart. I have the screen saver set to view the nature pictures, but that doesn't show. The screen goes blank and then I have to restart. I've read about sleep problems, but not a solution. Have any? Thanks! ~M

Yes, the restart prompt looks like the kernel panic alert screen. And I did accesss the panic.log and it doesn't mean much to me! Here is what I copied from the two crashes today:

Dual 867 G4 Mac OS X (10.4.3)

Late 2012 Mac mini with OSX 10.8.2 has started shutting down instead of going into sleep mode.

Sometime in the last week or so my mac mini has started going into full shut down instead of sleep mode.
I have tried checking and unchecking energy saver boxes but haven't found anything which will get me back to where I used to be - and I haven't knowingly changed anything to make this happen.- maybe an OS update caused it?
The machine will fire up with a tablet click rather than needing the reset button to be pushed so clearly the machine is sort of halfway between sleep and full 'off'. Most frustrating as one of the key issues for me in getting this my first mac was its easy sleep and super quick fire up compared to windows.
Any help appreciated
Oh yes I just remembered that I did just install 2 8gb of crucial RAM (to replace the supplied 2 2gb but surely that can't have anything to do with it - can it)?

Adding to my first post I can now advise that when the mac goes into sleep mode the light on the front stays on (it does not pulse so clearly it is not really sleeping).
When i click the tablet / keyboard this is actually what triggers the mac to reboot
I have tried resetting the SMC as per the following link to no avail
http://macs.about.com/od/usingyourmac/qt/Resetting-The-Smc-System-Management-Con troller-On-Your-Mac.htm
Help please!

When the system goes into sleep mode it keeps making a beeping noise. The system is shut down by holding the button in

When the system goes into sleep mode it keeps making a beeping noise. The system is shut down by holding the button in
and will then boot up again without any errors.
I Have replace RAMS, Motherboard and Power Supply. I have check the Bio's and Power setting on the unit. there is no place to cause this issue.
Please help
PC Power Tech

Syamak,
You didn’t specify where the beeping noise is coming from.
If it’s coming through your speakers, you could try to update your audio drivers since it’s possible they’re incorrectly sending a signal to the speakers as the audio chipset enters standby.
If the noise is coming from the motherboard, you’ll need to take a closer look at your system’s configuration or contact the manufacturer.
I hope this helps.

B8000 syas its shutting down but goes into Shutdown

I have recentyl bought the above model and have used it for a week and was very pleased.
I charged it 100% before a long haul flight and did not use it however when I got home it was dead plugged in the charger and it starts to charge all ok.
I have noticed now that when I go to shut down it seems to do so but if say after 5 hours I take it from case its warm and when it starts up power is at 50% and thats from 100% charge.
In addition once fully flat I notice when I plug in charger I get the battery charging icon but when doing this from Shut down I do not when recharging
It seems to me that when I choose shutdown its really going into sleep mode hence the battery drain
Any help much appreciated

I think so...I've been doing some experimenting...the first time this happened, I thought that it was just a glitch in something. After I shut down the computer completely, it doesn't do it...a day or so ago, there was an update applied by firefox and it seemed that it started doing it again after that. However, this doesn't make sense to me. I shut the computer down a while ago and now it is hibernating fine again. I tried shutting it down after I logged on and it worked fine. I've opened firefox and it is still working fine. I've also opened my outlook and it doesn't appear to be causing it. I believe that something I am opening might be doing this even though the program itself is shut down, although I have no idea how unless the computer believes it is still on. The only other program I run, is MSWord and MSN messenger, which is open now and I can still hibernate. I figured that the this was a long shot but thought I would ask. So I think the answer to your question is yes, it happens even when I don't have firefox open. I've shut everything down and tried to hibernate it and it won't do it once this starts happening. I'm completely out of ideas.

Computer shuts down without going to sleep

hello,
i've had an increasingly swollen battery with a corresponding diminished life. to a point that it barely fit, lasted ten minutes on its own and when it became depleted, the macbook pro would just shut down without a warning.
so i bought a new one and although it lasted about 2h30 on its first cycle, when it displayed the low battery warning, the computer shut down without going to sleep...
tried resetting PRAM, and SMC to no avail.
i charged it back up a bit and it shut down again.
it's on its 3rd cycle and battery health already dropped from 100% to 94%.
anything i can do?
thanks...

Are you sure it is shutting down and not going to sleep "permanently"? I say this because I have (and others) a somewhat similar problem but it's not shutting down, it sleeps forever:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1400708
Also, I was going to suggest maybe your battery has died out, but you said it is plugged in, so probably not your battery as the problem.

Streaming audio from my IPAD to my Apple TV from Rhapsody application. when Apple TV go into Screen Saver mode, about 5 minutes after that it stops playing the Audio Stream and goes into Sleep mode.

I am Streaming audio from my IPAD to my Apple TV from Rhapsody application. when Apple TV go into Screen Saver mode, about 5 minutes after that it stops playing the Audio Stream and goes into Sleep mode. I am using the Optical Out from the Apple TV to my receiver, the Apple TV is hard Wired to the Network, the IPAD is Wirelessly attached to the network (it continues to play the Audio Stream). When the Apple TV is turned back on it resumes playing once I manual select it for output from the IPAD. All device are on current releases of software. I have no Video hooked up to the Apple TV. How do I correct this?

Intermittent problems are often a result of interference. Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel or adjusting your multicast rate.
There are other types of problems that can affect networks, but this is by far the most common, hence worth mentioning first. Networks that have inherent issues can be seen to work differently with different versions of the same software. You might also try moving the Apple TV away from other electrical equipment.

Mini goes into sleep mode after login on

I put my mini into sleep mode after logging out. Then, when I log back in, after a few seconds, it goes into sleep mode again. I have to re-awaken it.
This is not the way the computer should work.
Is this a configuration issue, any ideas????
I use Apple's bluetooth wireless keyboard and mouse combination.
Thanks

It sounds obvious but are you sure your power adapter is ok and the battery is charged. The behaviour sounds a lot like low battery sleep.
Press the check button on your battery pack - do you get plenty of lights?

Mac Tower Pro 10.8.5 keeps going into sleep mode

Purchased from Apple, refurbished 2012 Mac Tower Pro. At the same time, purchased a new Dell U2713HM, 27" monitor.
Have been operating on this new system since about the first week of December 2013.
Issue:
The computer has constantly gone into sleep mode after a few minutes of no activity. I can have iTunes radio playing, but the system still goes into sleep mode. As I am typing and moving the curser, the machine stays awake.
This has caused much frustration because when it goes into auto sleep mode, it quits all programs that I am in, and when it does this, I lose all the work I had accomplished. It litterally closes everything and goes to sleep in about 2-3 minutes of no activity.
BTW: the computer and monitor have all its new OEM cables that came in the box, when I purchased the units.
Solutions attempted:
System Preferences — Energy Saver: computer sleep and display sleep set to "never" and unclicked the box "Put hard disks to sleep when possible."
Dell settings: Turned off all energy savers.
Results:
Nothing. Problem persists.

I apologize for the angst. The problem has cost too much money in lost time and material because when it would automatically shut down after a few minutes, all my work was lost.
I misunderstood the terms of the warranty. Thank you for your input and patience. Much appreciated. For the benefit of others that experience this with a new Mac that auto shuts down. Check the following:
1. Go to System Preferences.
2. Click on Security and Privacy.
3. Click on Advanced (bottom right corner)
4. If the first line is checked (Log out after 5 minutes of inactivity); uncheck it and then click OK button.
5. Be sure to click the lock before existing Security and Privacy.
Now the machine will cease shutting down programs to go into sleep mode as soon as machine is inactive for a few minutes.

Continuously goes into sleep mode

my computer worked perfectly fine until the day in literally blew up from the logic board b.s. ... so i got it replaced probably like back in febuary and have nothing but problems since and when i bring in to apple they cant do jack about it.
my fans run excessivly and the computer will start to go into sleep mode after being on for maybe 30 mins and then just keep doing it right when i start it back up. has anyone else had this problem?!?!?!

I too am having the same problem with my G5 going into sleep mode, although I must be lucky because I get about ah hour out of it before it shuts down. The problem appeared after replacing a logic board with blown capacitors at an approved service center. Since then they have also replaced the power supply and it is in shop now getting it's third logic board?!*@#! I do have to admit though that apple has coverd the cost of all repairs so far in spite of expired warranty.
All those MAC commercials are driving me crazy... "Hi, I'm a mac. Hi, I'm a PC. Neither of us work, but at least it's fairly easy to fix a PC."
Is there a point dealing with apple through phone directly or is going through a service center just as good?

How can I select shutdown & close the display w/o going into sleep mode?

I have learned to wait untill the MBP full shuts down before closing the display. In the past I have pressed shutdown closed the display only to find out later the MBP goes into sleep mode before fully shuting down. When I reopen the display the computer finishes the shutdown process or worse the battery is dead.
I would like to select shut down, close the display and walk away while the computer completes the shutdown process.
Is there any setup options or apps. that will allow this?
Thanks, Joe

Well hello there, and welcome to Macintosh.
Unfortunately you can't change anything to stop this from happening. The shutdwn process goes about its business killing processes and applications that have been running. The sleep process interrupts ALL business going on in the OS, and puts the machine into low power mode, as it is not aware of the nature of the running processes (in this case, the shutdown process), knowing only that they must be slept and the machine dropped into sleep mode. You gotta wait it out before you close the lid.
I would suggest sending a message in OS X feedback requesting this as a feature!
