IBook G4 / 800 - Sleep = Off ??

I had to replace the hard drive in my iBook. After reinstalling Tiger, the machine has developed an issue where it does not sleep correctly - instead it completely powers off.
Whether I choose "Sleep" or close the lid, the machine appears to go to sleep, the white LED comes on for a short time (under 1/2 a second), and then immediately goes out. If it matters, the LED doesn't fade out, it just shuts off.
At this point, pressing any key (as you would if the machine were sleeping), does not do anything.
If I press the power button momentarily, the machine bongs and starts up normally. This is opposed to having to hold the power button due to a kernel panic.
Any ideas on what could be causing this?
Thanks!

Hi,
Resetting the PMU may resolve it. Do that by simultaneously pressing and then releasing Shift-Control-Option-Power on the keyboard. Wait 5 seconds and start the iBook.

Lumia 800 turning off randomly

hi All
I'm having an odd problem with my Lumia 800, that I hope you can help with. The phone randomly shuts down, it doesn't seem to be related to the power levels as it does it when fully charged. It can go 2 days or 5 minutes before doing this. The odd thing is that to turn it back on I have to plug it into my PC, it comes back on immediately... it does not seem to come on if I plug it into the mains. This is a recent issue it worked for a couple of months without any issues.
Any ideas? I'm based in london on an Orange contract. Thanks for you help in advance.

I'm having a similar problem, my 800 switches off in mid conversation sometimes and restarts. This is very frustrating as most of my calls are to clients of my small business. However the caller ID from that call doesn't record as would usually happen.This is not so bad if it's a current client as I can call them straight back on the landline but if it is new business I don't have that option as I have no number :-( (therefore lost business)
I am getting really hacked off with it and could do with a proper answer.

IBook will not sleep with clamshell open -

I have been using this iBook for years with no problems until the system updater updated to 10.4.9 on 4/24/07. Ever since then the iBook will not sleep on its own, I have to shut the clamshell or use the sleep command from the Apple menu.
I have tried disabling all sharing (file printer internet).
I have reset the PMU multiple times.
I have tried several different settings in the energy saver panel.
I have used "sudo periodic daily weekly monthly."
I have verified and repaired permissions.
Here is my console log from today:

Looking back several days seems the "lookupd" hangs up quite often and the Sound assertion always fails.
Any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Does this happen when running from the AC adapter or from the battery, or does that not matter?
Try booting into Safe Mode. This will take quite awhile longer than a normal startup because it does a file check and repair of the hard disk.
You will see your normal desktop. Once completely started up in Safe Mode, restart normally, and go to Applications > Utilities > Disk Utility. Select the named boot volume in the left sidebar, ("Macintosh HD" unless you've renamed it). Repair permissions on it.
Recheck the settings in Energy Saver in System Preferences.
See if a little hard drive maintenance helps.

IBook will not sleep when lid closed

Hi,
I recently had my Hard Drive replaced, the old one died. It was all covered by AppleCare and the repairs done at a Apple Authorised Outlet. After installing everything again I just found out that my iBook will not sleep when the lid is closed. The screen is still on and bright. Any ideas why? Is this dangerous? Any quick fixes?
Cheers,
Jack

Jack,
Welcome to Apple Discussions.
You need to give the Apple Authorized Repair center a call back and let them know what's going on. I've seen this before here on the forums, and it was attributed to a sleep magnet not being put back in. It's most likely this. Apparently, putting this magnet back in can be easily overlooked.

Clicking Hdd when my ibook is on sleep mode

I have a problem with my ibook.
When it goes in sleep option from time to time, I can hear the HDD drive heads clicking, like when you start it,every 5 minutes.
What is it? Is my hdd going to die soon??
Cheers
Luca

Both
Sorry for the late reply
Here is what happens:
Scenario 1: battery in, I choose sleep from the apple menu. The poor thing goes to sleep and stay with its black monitor but, from time to time the hdd makes noise like when the ibook it’s starting, a sort of buzz it goes on like this every 5 min. If I choose from the System Options to never put the hdd at sleep it doesn’t make noise.
Scenario 2: no battery, AC adapter in. I choose sleep and ibook goes to sleep, after 5 min it turns the display on and stays like that for good.
What’s going on??

My ipod has a black screen. I have tried to hold the sleep/off button and menu button at the same time with no luck. I connected to my computer and tried restore on itunes - still with a black screen a voice said "screen locked' code 542

Is the iPad charged? Plug it in with the charger/wall outlet for half an hour and try again to reboot by holding both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears.

IBook g4 only sleeps on battery power. Other than putting never sleep in the energy saver what else can be done?

iBook g4 only sleeps on battery power. Other than putting never sleep in the energy saver what else can be done?

Do you mean it will only go to sleep when running from the battery? Or do you mean it won't do anything except sleep when running from the battery?
You could try resetting the PMU. The PMU has control over the Sleep function, so resetting it may help.

Booting from old iBook G4 800 HD

I have my old 40GB HD that i salvaged from my iBook G4 800, that i recovered and directly installed (no formatting or reinstallation) in a macAlly firewire/usb 2.0 (PHR-250CC) external case.
my goal is to be able to boot from the drive with my apps like i used to on my iBook, but so far i haven't been able to get it to boot.
i've run disk utility on the drive, but it hasn't found anything wrong.
one supplier here told me i won't be able to boot from a 5400rpm laptop drive, and that it'll have to be 7200rpm.
is this true?
dual 450 G4 Mac OS X (10.3.9)
dual 450 G4 (OS 9.2.2); 12 iBook G4

That generally means there is no valid boot system on the drive or the system on the drive is corrupt.
You can try the following but no guarantees:
Boot from the G4's main drive into OS X (which I assume will be 10.3.x.) Open Disk Utility from the Utilities folder. After DU opens select the Firewire volume from the left side list, then click on the First Aid tab in the DU main window. Click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors it has fixed then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. Once the disk repair is completed click on the Repair Permissions button. After permissions repair has completed quit DU, reselect the external drive in Startup Disk and give it another try. If it still hangs at the same place then the OS on the drive isn't functional.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need to use either Disk Warrior or TechTool Pro to repair the drive. If neither of them is able to repair the drive then you will have to erase the drive and reinstall.
If the drive is OK you can reinstall OS X using Archive and Install. This way you won't have to erase the drive and lose all the other files on it. Be sure to read the Archive and Install document carefully to understand your options and what to expect.

IBook won't sleep when cover is closed

When I close the cover it will not sleep. Only after a time it will sleep per settings in the energy saver. When I open the cover, it will not automatically awaken. Have to hit apple key a few times to awaken? Not the end of the world but would like to know why.

The reed switch is the likely culprit. It's in the right side of the display bezel, and is activated by a magnet in the right lower edge of the iBook. Unless you are rolling in dough, it's likely not to be worth the cost of repair. Probably money would be better spent toward a new MacBook if you can't tolerate the situation as it now exists.
Sometimes the reed switch sticks in the off position. At least, you can consider yourself lucky that the one in your iBook has stuck in the on position, so it's on all the time instead of off.
You can set the Energy Saver preferences to have it sleep quickly or simply remember to put it to sleep manually before closing the iBook if you decide to live with it, as-is.

IPod USB charging when iBook/Powerbook is sleeping

Hello all.
We've got two iPods (a 5G and a 4G) and two portable Macs (PowerBook and iBook).
Here's the issue: when our computers are sleeping (ie. the lids are closed), but also plugged into the wall, we could charge our old 4G iPods using the FireWire cables.
Now that one of us has upgraded to a 5G (which doesn't sync through FireWire), and the other has switched to using the USB cable to sync/charge, we've noticed that the iPods don't charge through USB when the computers are asleep but plugged in.
Is this the experience that other iPod/Mac users are having? Is there a way to force the iPods to charge when the computers are sleeping AND powered, or do iBooks and Powerbooks need to be awake to charge an iPod through USB?
I understand why a sleeping iBook or Powerbook that's NOT plugged in wouldn't charge an iPod -- it doesn't with FireWire, after all. But a computer that IS plugged in? How inconvenient if I had to open my computer every time I'm trying to charge up the iPod!
Please advise. Thanks.

Powering a device through the USB bus requires that the CPU on the host machine be active in order to arbitrate power for different devices and warn the operator if a device is drawing too much power from the bus. Since the CPU doesn't do anything while the computer is asleep, devices cannot be powered while the host is asleep. Power used by FireWire devices is drawn directly from the power supply and doesn't need any information from the CPU while the computer is plugged in. When on battery power, FireWire ports are shut off while the computer is asleep to save battery time.

Ibook cycles from sleep to wake (only when closed and charging)

I have been having an issue with my 12' iBook g4 for about 6 months or so. It will operate just fine on battery power, but when I plug it in it will start to act up. The screen will flicker as it charges for a few seconds, then it stops charging. Then it starts, stops, starts, stops. I have found that it happens when the battery is lower (under 20%) and if I turn the backlight down or off that it will charge for a few seconds longer each cycle.
In addition to this if I close the computer when it is charging it will not sleep, just cycle back and forth. The only fix I have found it to leave the lid open and put it to sleep from the apple menu. As long as it is open it charges fine.
I now have a new macbook, but I wanted to sell this one and would rather not have this problem. Any ideas?

Have you tried resetting the PMU?
Also for the problem with it not sleeping properly while closed, if you are still seeing this behavior after resetting the PMU, try removing the keyboard and replacing it again. Sometimes this happens if the keyboard is not properly seated.

IBook Won't turn Off.

Yes, Werid, But My iBook G3 won't turn off. When i Go and click on the apple To "log off, Restart, Sleep Or Shut down" The menu closes and The computer Stays on and does not shut down. I then force Quit all the Programs Runing, And tryed to shut down again, No shut down.
I have to Press and hold the power button And hold it til' it shuts down or Remove the Battery.
I know this is not good for the Hard Drive so I run Safe Boot Regerly, But I really what it to shut down again.
Can anyone help me?
iBook G3, 128MB RAM, 30GB HD,12"in.,800MHz, Dual usb, 10.3.9

Do you have to use Force Quit to quit applications? Can you quit applications normally (from the Menu Bar contextual drop-down or using Command + q)?
Do you still have your OS 9 startup volume? If you're not sure, go to System Preferences > Startup Disk and see if it shows up as a startup option. If it does, select it as your startup disk and shut down. Then start up in OS 9 and see if you are able to shut down normally from there. (This eliminates the possibility of a hardware problem if you are able to shut down normally in OS 9.)
If you no longer have the OS 9 installation, try creating a new user (System Preferences > Accounts). Log out and log in as the new user. Is the new user able to shut down normally?

Ibook crashes on sleep

recently, my ibook g3 has been crashing when i shut the lid, it does not go to sleep, the light at the front stays off and the fan still spins. when i open the lid again, i have a black screen so i have to force shutdown. when i restart, it tells me that os x has crashed. If someone would tell me where to find the log, i can post it.

Ibook goes to sleep?

My ibook when you close the lid or put it to sleep. The screen goes black but the pulsing light by the lock doesn't come on now. I am unable to wake it up but I know it's still 'on' because if you put caps lock or number lock on the lights illuminate. It will not wake up I have to turn it off and then back on??
HELP!!!!! Please

Is it on AC power? The only time I have had that happen to my ibook was when the battery was out of power.
