HUGES problems with display after waking up from hibernate mode

Hello everybody,
I hope that somebody can help me soon, because in the last 15 days I'm reaaaaallly annoyed with MAC's issues.
In the last 15 days it seemd I had to reboot it a lot of times, because it freezes, it crashes, etc...
Neverthless what happened today it passes all the limits: in the last period, because of these often crashes, I turn the mac off at night, on the other hand when I go to work I simply close the display and let it hibernates.
Today when I came back after work I opened it and it was amazing:
it has a different desktop!! With different icons in the dock, diferent icons in the top-right part, and it was freezed! I had to force it to shut down, restart it...and since then, I had huge problem with display.
It shakes everything while scrolling mails, web pages or icons in the dock. If I scroll between desktops, it takes year lights more than yesterday!!
Nothing happen if I restart as many time as I want.
In my simple opinion it seems a virus issue, but..as far as I know, there is no need to install an AV on a mac, right???
I tried to record some of these probls with the QT, but when you start recording all the desktop, it seems A LITTLE better, smoothing all these shaking effects. NEverthless they are still noticeable.
I'll try to attach a video as a dropbox link, 'cause I can't attach it on the message (it is denied)
PLEASE HELP MEEEEE!!!!

I am going to add my problem to this as I believe it fits and may add to the conversation.
I have a MacBook Pro, am using Parallels, and have an issue waking it up from sleep.
Circumstances:
I close the lid and walk away from the device in my office. When I return, (over night or an hour later) I open the lid, and if nothing happens swipe the touchpad or press a key, the power light changes from pulsating to steady. then in less than 15 seconds it goes back to pusating. The display never energizes, only remain black.
I usually try opening and closing several times, and occaisionally that will work. Other times, I hold the power key until I hear the drive halt, then turn it on. The grey screen will display, then blue, then just before it gets to the log in, the screen goes black (not energized) and the light pulsates.
I have tried the PRAM reset and Safe Mode starts with no luck.
*Now the really wierd thing.* I decieded to contact Apple support on line and pay for help (yes that is weird in an of itself for me). As I began the process it came to the part for me to enter my serial number. With the lid open, I turned the MacBook on its side to try to read the number and the screen energized and the password unlock prompt was waiting for me to enter the password.
Observations
I had read where the light sensor could be blocked by dirt or the light in the room was too dim, but I clean the screen and there is plenty of light. Dales Post is the first that I have seen Parallels and the Sudden Motion Sensor. That makes some sense to me because of what happened when I turned it on its side. I have verified that it happens regardless of using Parallels. as teh last time I did it I had closed out of all my VMs and I believe exited Parallels.
I am going to try the deleting the power preferences file and will report back.

  • W510 eSATA/USB2.0 combo port does not respond after waking up from sleep mode

    Has anyone tried to connect external DVD/CD player or burner to the eSATA/USB combo port and experienced very slow system performance after waking up from sleep mode?  It might takes minutes to launch an application program that usually takes just few seconds.  My W510 can not even restart.  It will just stop at the Thinkpad logo if I tried to restart after waking up from sleep.
    The funny thing is if I moved the external DVD/CD player to the USB2.0 port in the back, everything went back to normal.  I don't know if this has anything to do with the fact that the combo port has something to do with eSATA.
    Thanks

    It seems that this problem is unique to my system. I am hoping that one of the Mac Guru's will have at least a pointer in the right direction.
    Thanks.

  • Problem with internet after waking up (hp presario cq56)

    Hi.
    After waking up from "sleeping" state I can't connect to the internet, laptop just doesn't see the connection (wire). After rebooting everything turns back to normal.
    Can anyone help me?
    Thanks a lot!
    PS
    I'm using Gnome 3

    That message probably comes from whatever network utility is in use, and it does not answer my question. Can you check if the driver for your network card is still loaded when you resume?

  • T400 BSODs After Waking up from Hibernate - ati2dvag.d​ll

    My brand new T400 keeps crashing upon waking up from hibernate with a blue screen of death. The blue screen mentions each time ati2dvag.dll

    My model number is 2764-CTO and I am running XP Pro, SP3.
    Am I the only one with this issue?

    D,
    I had this exact same problem.  After talking with many reps at the Lenovo help center in ATL, one guy finally pointed me to the intel drivers.  Basically, from what I can tell, this is a problem associated with the switchable graphics.  After I downloaded the most recent ATI drivers, this happened to me, but only when I was not plugged into a power source.  My computer works fine after I disabled the switchable graphics, and installed the newest intel drivers.  I also have a 2764-CTO with XP.  Let me know if that helps, or you find another, better solution.
    -D
    EDIT: Also, I saw at least one other place in the forum where someone else solved this by downloading an older version of the drivers.  that might solve the problem as well, although I have not attempted this yet myself.

    Hi,
    I have almost the same problem with my T540p, except that there is no internet connection not only after waking up from the sleep mode, but also when starting windows and sometimes the internet connection will get suddenly lost during normal windows run.
    I tried installing all kinds of drivers - latest from intel, latest from lenovo update (which is always different version from the one from intel), some older versions. Nothing helps.
    Re-enabling the WiFi device like Aaziz1982 suggested, doesn't help.
    Here is a more detailed description of my problem: http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/T400-T500-and-newer-T-series/T540p-WiFi-Connected-no-internet/m-p/177818...

    Hi guys,
    Waking up from Sleep mode does not start the CPU fan.
    Kernel:  2.6.32-ARCH
    KDE : 4.4
    Let me know what other details you need.

    I was having the same problem after installing mountain lion.
    What i did was in Finder went to /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/  and deleted all the networking plists (refer screen shot). Then restarted the Mac and in Network Preferences reconnected to my WLAN.
    That solved the problem.

  • Problems with codepage after refreshing data from XML

    Hello,
    I've created a dashboard with XML connection.
    XML file with new data is created via macro in INPUT.xls Excel file. This INPUT.xls file was created through exporting spreadsheet from Xcelsius and then adding a macro to it, so text data should be this same codepade. Generated XML through macro have no errors and Flash file gets numeric data with no problems.
    But there is other problem with text's codepage. After reload there are some unidentified symbols in place of polish alphabet letters.
    What should I do to make it right? Is this a problem with codepage or something else?

  • Monitor does not correctly display after waking up from suspend

    Hello,
    Awesome WM. I use systemctl suspend to put my computer to sleep. It works fine, however, when I press the power button on my system unit, the computer wakes up but the image is distorted completely so I cannot see what is where... Quiting Awesome WM (win + shift + q, if I remember correctly) and logging back helps, but is not really convenient. I have tried to find a solution for the problem and, as you most likely surmised, with no success.

  • Horizontal shifting bars on MBP 15 after disconnecting 24" LED cinema display and waking up from clamshell mode.

    I use my MBP 15 (late 2011) with 24" Apple LED Cinema display in a clamshell mode. After disconnecting external display, and opening display, it shows horizontal shifted bars, so it becomes completely unusable. Have to hard reset laptop. Any hints on how to resolve this? Thanks.

    Ok, more information for anyone that might care. The wake-up seems to be the familiar dark wake in order to go into hibernate mode. Except now, it's a death wake. Looking at the logs, I see that it happens exactly 70 minutes after sleeping, even though hibernatemode = 0 (which shouldn't hibernate at all!)
    So my power settings look like this:
    Currently in use:
    standbydelay         4200
    standby              1
    halfdim              1
    hibernatefile        /var/vm/sleepimage
    darkwakes            0
    gpuswitch            2
    disksleep            10
    sleep                10
    autopoweroffdelay    14400
    hibernatemode        0
    autopoweroff         1
    ttyskeepawake        1
    displaysleep         2
    acwake               0
    lidwake              1
    standbymode is 70 minutes, what a coincidence. I'm going to try setting it to 0 and see what that does.

  • Problems with charts after upgrading APEX from 3.2 to 4.1

    After upgrading apex from 3.2 to 4.1 the combination stacked bar/Stepline charts no longer works. Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Hi "904055",
    I believe the reason your chart is no longer working is because you are attempting to generate a chart type that is not covered by our AnyChart Flash charts license i.e. Stepline charts are not one of our support chart types. We only support the chart types exposed via the Application Express UI i.e. the chart types listed in the Create wizards. If you wish to create other AnyChart chart types, you will need to contact AnyChart directly, in order to obtain a separate license and swf file.
    If you believe that your chart is only using chart types covered by our license, but are still experiencing issues, then please place a testcase on apex.oracle.com, post some login credentials, and I'd be happy to take a look.

  • HP ZBook 15 freezes after waking up from Sleep Mode

    I've got a brand new HP ZBook 15. It arrived with Windows 7 and a HP Windows 8 DVD. I installed windows 8 on it immediately using the DVD and installed all drivers with the HP Support Assistant. Apart from having a lot of problems with the Ethernet, which are now partially resolved, I've got a huge issue when putting the Laptop into sleep mode and waking it up after 1-2 hours. Everything will start normal, and I can see the start screen image (the image which appears before you log in with your PW or PIN), but it will then immediatly freeze. This can only be resolved with a restart. Sometimes, even after restarting, I will be able to log in normally, but the system freezes again after reaching the desktop. I've tried talking to HP Support but they just gave me some drivers to install (i.e downgrade my drivers) which did not resolve the issue. BIOS is L70 Ver. 01.07 Does anybody know how to resolve this?

    Hi BananaCode, To get your issue more exposure I would suggest posting it in the commercial forums since this is a commercial product. You can do this at Commercial Forums.
    Thanks. 

  • Screen remains blacks even after waking up from Sleep mode

    Hi,
    I've had my Macbook Pro for over a year now and it hasn't given me any problems until recently. The screen would remain black when I open up the laptop to wake it up from sleep mode. There would be no response even when I press random keys. When I close the laptop again, the white light at the bottom right corner lights on (when it's supposed to "breathe" while sleeping). The light goes out when I open up the laptop. The only thing I could do is to restart the computer.
    What is the problem? Are there any ways to rectify this?

    I am going to add my problem to this as I believe it fits and may add to the conversation.

  • Ps4 Not reading discs after waking up from rest mode

    I'm having a really weird issue with my PS4, it seemed to have started after the 2.50 update.
    It's happened about twice and is starting to make me think something might be wrong with my disc drive, which I certainly hope isn't the case since it had no issues before.
    The issue is pretty much described in the subject. Rarely, but enough to be an annoyance, when I start my ps4 from rest mode and change discs, the disc won't read. I've sat waiting a while and nothing happens.
    I try cleaning the disc and all that but it doesn't fix the problem, the only way to fix it is to turn off or reset the console.
    Any ideas? Hoping its a software issue, as like I said, it only started AFTER the 2.50 update. It's done it on 2.51 already. EDIT: I've seem to be able to replicate it, when the console is in rest mode and I swipe on the disc button and it starts up, it doesn't read the disc, but after waiting a couple of mins it seems to be reading the disc.

    This problem started after the 2.51 update for me. It will read old discs but not the two new ones I've bought ( and replaced after ps told me it was the discs). The only thing that fixes it ( and only temporarily ) is to go into safe mode and reinstall the update. After that it reads the disc but only for a bit, eventually it just stops running and tells you to check the disc. As I said these are brand new discs. The last thing I was told to try by PS was to go online and load system software on to a jump drive and try to reinstall whole system. Unfortunately I will first have to download all profiles games onto jump drives, unless you pay for PSplus. NIf anyone out there no of a better way to do this, or if there is a way to go back to the system before the 2.51 update, please let me know?

  • Satellite P200D-11R sound and graphics crash after waking up from sleep mode

    Hi,
    I am wondering if anyone here has had similar experiences to mine (below) or can offer any solutions.
    I have upgraded my P200D-11R OS to Vista 64 Ultimate to take advantage of the extra performance. I also add that the BIOS has already been updated to version 1.4.
    Well, everything works fine with the standard 2Gig of RAM which the laptop was supplied with originally, however, when I upgrade the RAM to 4Gig (2 x 2GB Samsung 667mHz modules), sound and graphics problems appear every time the machine is brought back from sleep mode.
    The sound card makes a very laud fuzzy noise every time it wants to play a sound and the graphics produce lots of horizontal lines on the screen. I then just have to restart the machine which means loosing all my unsaved work.
    Everything works fine as long as the machine does not enter sleep mode. I have currently disabled the sleep mode to prevent the machine from entering it but I am finding life very hard without it.
    I am very surprised and also disappointed at the fact that Toshiba did not test these machines with Vista 64 Ultimate and 4Gig of RAM!
    Extra info:
    The memory is the same Samsung type as the 1Gig modules supplied by Toshiba originally with the machine, and the part number Toshiba recommends.
    I have tried installing other (more recent) device drivers by Realtek and ATI without any improvements.
    The memory modules pass all tests and are not defective. They have also been tested on my friends Dell notebook with no problems even in sleep mode.
    I have installed my friends Dell 2Gig memory modules in my P200D and they too produce exactly the same results with post-sleep crashes.
    My thoughts are that this must be another BIOS issue unless anyone can shed some light on the issue from another angle.
    Please help! Many thanks in advance.

    Hi Sascha
    Since you are running a Vista 32bit version, the upper limit of the memory recocnised by the machine is 3.2gb which is the maximum a 32bit operating system can address and use. The diffrence here is that I also upgraded my OS to Vista Ultimate 64bit to get yet better performance out of the 64bit dual AMD processor.
    3.2gb of RAM on 32bit OS does not necessarily increase the performance. However, it keeps the performance stable when you open many more programs at the same time since the machine has more RAM to play with before staring to use the much slower hard drive as operating memory (Page File), to keep all thoes open programs running.
    A 64bit OS such as Vista Ultimate 64, recognises the whole 4gb of RAM and much more (for instance, 8gb with 2 x 4gb RAM modules). The 64bit OS itself would generally consume more RAM to start with, however, with 4gb I found the general performance to be much better. Going back to the problem however, my P200D-11R with Ultimate 64 and 4gb RAM refuses to wake up from sleep mode gracefully and the graphics and sound crash every time, forcing me to restart.
    My feelings at present is that eventhough your machine may be slightly different, I bet if you upgrade your OS to 64bit, the machine will start recognising all of the 4gb of RAM and post-sleep crashes will start to appear!

  • Macbook connectivity lost after waking up from sleep mode or rebooting

    Being an Ex-Microsoft user , I am sad to say that Microsoft products still beats Apple's MAC in stability for certain functions.
    For instance, this Macbook laptop does not seem to be able to reconnect to the home's gateway/ router (or any other gateway, for the matter) after it wakes up from sleep mode or rebooting.
    I've read several similar posts on this topic in the internet and am convince to say that it is not the gateway/ router that the Mac is connected to giving the problem as there are other computers(Microsoft-based) connected to the same gateway working perfectly fine.
    Furthermore the Fujitsu laptop I was using previously had connected to the gateway flawlessly... until the darn-thing broke down (grumble....grumble...)
    So far, it seemingly so, that no other person has managed to figure and resolve this one out yet. Also, no Apple support staff has responded nor helped resolved other related-connectivity problems.
    Is there a real hope for us??

    The previous solution only worked for a few days.
    I have another fix from Apple that is working (for now):
    Go to the network preference pane and create a new location by using the location pull-down menu. Call it whatever you want.
    Select the new location. Choose the little tool icon dropdown under the left column of services and choose "set service order" Drag things around so that airport comes first and then ethernet. Save, apply, do what you need to do to save all of these settings. Restart the computer.
    There might have been some other steps, but these are the main and most important parts.
    The default configuration for service order is wrong and the computer gets hung looking around for a bluetooth or firewire network connection. After every major system update, check that the service order is set right--it could get overwritten.
