Imac and Forced to Restart after Coming out of Sleep ModeI

I am having an intermittent issue on an with an iMac, last generation G4 lampshade, and 10.4.6.
I upgraded the machine with the combo update. At certain times when the machine comes out of sleep mode. I am forced to restart the machine. I get a dialog box for this.
I was able to get this out of the log.

I have tried both remedies mentioned above. I double-checked and my network is listed in the wireless advanced settings. It's the only network in my list. Airport is at the top in my Network Preferences as well.
I was hoping the update to 10.5.8 would help but the problem keeps occurring. One thing I have tried is leaving the "Closed Network Option" unchecked for my AE. Now, I am discovering when exiting sleep mode, I see my network but when it tries to connect, I receive the error "Connection Timeout". This happens on both computers.
The only thing that works the most consistently is unplugging the AE and plugging back in. Once I'm connected, it works great.
I tried using iStumbler to see if there were any other networks using the same channel but that looks okay.
I guess I can try using a different security setting other than WPA2, but then that is not really a solution. I'm about ready to just try some other newer wireless solution. It used to work flawlessly. I think until 10.5.4, I had no issues.

  • Apple app windows disappear after coming out of sleep

    In Yosemite, after coming out of sleep, some Apple apps are still active but the windows have disappeared. I have noticed this with the Activity Monitor and with the Calculator. I played around with Hide/Show Windows, etc and was finally able to make the Activity Monitor window show up. I was unable to get the window to show up in the Calculator. Killing and restarting the app resolved the issue.
    I have not had any problems with non-Apple apps, and Finder and Safari seem to be OK.

    Further correction: Even when initially launched, after a restart Activity Monitor and Settings will both launch with no windows. There is a window name shown when right clicking on the icon in the Dock and in the application menu, but clicking on the window does not bring it up for display. With no Activity Monitor, you have to use command line, ps command and kill to clear the processes, following which they can be relaunched with all windows displayed.

  • Windows 7 Sleep issues--freezes after coming out of sleep

    Running Windows 7 rig with MSI MS-7511 Mobo. Back in October, I purchased a refurb Microsoft Wireless 6000 keyboard and installed it. I THINK this is what started my problems. Since then, computer will go into sleep mode as usual, but at some point after coming out of sleep (maybe a few seconds, maybe an hour) it will totally freeze. The only way to get the system back up is to unplug it and re-start.
    I have since uninstalled the keyboard, and tried to restore, but still having the problem. Pretty sure it's a USB problem, but I have tried re-installing drivers (mcp732) and even the MB BIOS. If I run the system without my wireless mouse and with no USB devices, it works fine. I have also tried switching USB devices to different ports, to no avail.
    It's not just the mouse that causes the issues, it seems to be any connected USB device.
    Also--and I think this is weird-I installed a PCI USB card in one of the slots and transferred my mouse to that and the same thing still happens. Wouldn't that be a totally different set of drivers than the ones that drive the main MB USB devices?
    Don't know what to try next . . . want to avoid having to do a Windows re-install if possible.
    Below are the errors I get when I run powercfg -ENERGY.
    Any ideas? Would like to avoid giving away another two days of my life re-installing my software.

    I don't think I've had a setup yet where sleepmode wasn't causing issues, I shut it off.
    Sleep has only become an issue with Windows 7, where MS got so aggressive about it, and caused so many problems for so many people, that many have done as you and turned it off! Shame on you Microsoft! Instead of saving energy your customers are leaving their PCs on!
    I suspect the OP's problem is with (of all things) the MS wireless mouse/kb driver(s). At first my setup wouldn't work at all, then I dl'ed the newest Intellimouse drivers/software and it worked "better", but I have never been able to get Sleep to work reliably. I finally found that Hibernate works reliably, so that is all I do now. When the PC is done working, it saves to HDD and shuts off. Resuming from this state takes longer than resuming from Sleep, but at least it Works Every Time.

  • Locked out of machine after coming out of sleep mode (passwd not accepted)

    info macbook (intel) 10.5.1 (was upgraded from Tiger)
    single user setup
    after waking up machine or coming out of sleep mode (i.e lifting lid) occasionally cannot login at all, password is refused. Multiple failed attempts. Its not a problem of caps lock on.
    Only solution is to force power down of machine and then OS comes back up, HOWEVER, without demanding a password after power up (hardly very secure), afterwards it may work OK for a few days (with a number of sleep cycles) before same login problem happens again.
    Is this a known problem?

    Please do both of the following:
    1) Turn the computer off. Press and hold shift. Turn the computer on. Continue to hold shift until you see the spinning gear below the Apple logo. Once it is started up, log in. Does it do the same thing here? If it works, please know this is not a fix, just an isolation step.
    2) Test this in another user account on the computer. If you don't have one, create one in: Apple menu> System Preferences> Accounts. Click the lock in the lower left corner if it is locked and enter your password. Click the + just above the lock and type in "test" for all the fields it asks for. If you are on 10.4 or earlier, check off "Allow user to administer this computer". If you are on Leopard, make the account type an Administrator. Click "Create account". Click the Apple menu and select the last item ("Log Out" Account name). Log in as the test account and test. Note: You will have to set it to ask you for a password when waking from sleep (Apple> System Prefernces> Security> Require password to wake this computer from sleep or screen saver)
    Let me know the result of those tests. Please make sure to try both, as they will allow me to see what may be causing the issue.

  • Airport doesn't locate my network after coming out of sleep mode

    Hi, seems that my imac has a hard time connecting with my network when coming out of sleep mode. Even when I choose the proper network, it still asks for my password (even thought it's populated in teh password field) and when I choose OK, it still times out quite often. Eventually if I turn it off and on or restart comp, it comes up OK.
    I'm a little afraid to repair permissions as I have a HP C7280 all in one that the general school of thought is don't repair permissions as Leopard thinks they need repair, but in fact are OK and when "repaired" stop the machine from working properly. It took me a while to get it going in the first place, I dont want to break it again! Any ideas?? Thanks, Dan

  • Cannot Connect to AE After Coming out of Sleep Mode

    This happens on both my iMac and Powerbook. I don't normally use wireless on the iMac but I discovered that both computers are having the same issue when troubleshooting. When coming out of Sleep mode, the Airport device cannot connect to the Airport Express. The only thing that can consistently connect is my Blackberry.
    I know it's not a reception problem as when I am able to connect, the signal is strong and speeds are very good.
    Some things I have tried to fix the problem have worked but not consistently as the problem keeps happening:
    -Turn Airport off and back on (On the computer)
    -Unplug and plug back in the AE
    -Turn off MAC Address Filtering
    -Factory reset the Airport Express
    -Select the Join Other Network option and re-enter my wpa2 credentials
    -Uncheck Closed Network option
    What could be the problem? I'm really thinking there is a software bug somewhere. I have also noticed if I make any changes in the Airport Utility the AE never recovers as it stays a solid amber. I have to power cycle the device.
    It's using software version 6.3 and all my OS X updates are the latest. This is very frustrating. Any help appreciated.

    I have tried both remedies mentioned above. I double-checked and my network is listed in the wireless advanced settings. It's the only network in my list. Airport is at the top in my Network Preferences as well.

  • Shuts down after coming out of sleep mode

    When my imac comes out of sleep mode it keeps shutting down and does a restart.

    On restart, are you getting any error messages?
    I would test this issue in safe mode and then reset the smc as well

  • Fixed my router 'connect' problem after coming out of sleep

    After almost 2 weeks of agonizing over this, I think I finally fixed the problem that I was having of my Macbook Pro not wanting to reconnect to my router after being brought out of sleep.
    Simply, all I did was try a Wireless G router instead of the N one that I had been using and I have yet to experience the problem again! I had been using a Netgear Wireless N (even forcing it to G did not help) and am now using a Linksys Wireless G instead. Not one issue so far!!

    Apple Store currently thinks it's a hardware problem

  • Device Removal message for internal hard drive after coming out of sleep

    Hi,
    I have search the forums and all the info I can find seems to just refer to external hard drives, how ever the problem I am having is with the internal drive.
    When my G5 comes out of sleep mode, shortly after, I get a Device Removal error message then I loose my second drives and have to reboot for them to return. The drive is a 500 GB divided in two partitions, Mac OS Extended (Journaled), in slot B.
    I have used Disk Utility and Tech Tools to check the drive, and the drive passes with no errors. I can't check file permissions as the drive is not a start-up drive.
    This problem just started not long after using a USB thumb drive in the front, maybe just a coincidence or something went haywire after ejecting the USB drive?
    Thanks,
    Bill...

    Do you have a USB hub to try?
    Have you checked the disk manufacturer's website to see if there are any updated drivers or firmware available and/or needed?

    I have two Western Digital drives in the computer, both partitioned into two drives. One is a 1 TB the other a 500 GB. The 1 TB drive is the boot drive and I installed it about 2 months ago. The 500 GB drive, the one that is disappearing, I installed it about 6 months ago. Both drives pass Disk Utility, and TechTools testing (that is before the one disappears).
    I do not have a USB hub, I have a DVD/RW connected via Firewire, and I have a USB external 320 GB to use for whatever.
    No, I didn't think to check the manufacturer's web site for updates as the drives work fine, just the one 500 MB drive out of the blue I get the Device Removal message. And I am using the G5 at this moment replying here, and so far today I have connected my camera via usb with out issues.

  • A665-s6065 crashes after coming out of sleep mode

    I recently upgraded up to 8gb of RAM.  Ever since I did this, when my computer comes out of sleep mode, it crashes within a matter of seconds.  To get the 8gb of RAM to work in the first place, I had to update my BIOS.  So I know that is not the issue.

  • Restart when coming out of sleep mode

    I have an early 2006 core duo 20" iMac that has been rock solid. Normally it will go into sleep mode if left unattended for a lengthy time and I typically just hit the shift key when I return to the computer to bring it back from sleep.
    This week on 2 occasions I have come back, hit the shift key and heard the restart chord and then watched the iMac restart, ending up at the login screen. The iMac is on a UPS which did NOT beep to tell me it has lost power, nor did any of the other stuff in the house indicate a loss of power, so no explanation of why the iMac had to start up. Also I can not understand how hitting the shift key could get it to initiate the start sequence anyway.
    It has been unusually hot and humid here (30 degrees C and 65%) but that is probably nothing compared to where some people live and operate, and at no time have I heard the fans even ramp up to cope with the raised external temperature.
    My searches here for a similar occurrence did not find anything exactly the same.
    Any thoughts?

    Hello WebSailor
    I would reset the iMac's SMC exactly as described in the following article, then bypass the UPS and test it for a day or so with the iMac plugged into only a surge protector.

  • Monitor black after coming out of sleep mode

    Every time my computer goes into sleep mode, after 5 minutes i think is what it set at, the screen is black.  I can see the desktop on each side of the black part of the screen, but only about a 1/16th of an inch.  I have to turn off, then back on the screen to get the picture.  It doesnt seem to make any difference what i have for settings for the sleep time.  Only if i turn off sleep mode of course.  Ive downloaded all the updates but no success.  This is a problem ive had for years just thought id take another crack at it.  The monitor is a 2159m.  Its about 6 or 7 years old now, but still this is very annoying.  Any thing you can do to help would be greatly appreciated.  
    This question was solved.

    Thank you for the response. This issue could potentially have numerous causes, so I will suggest multiple troubleshooting avenues.
    First, your Windows 7 might perform "hybrid sleep" instead of the regular sleep mode. This would illustrate the exact situation you have explained. For instructions on verifying, enabling, and disabling hybrid sleep mode, please reference this website: http://maximumpcguides.com/windows-7/turn-off-hybrid-sleep-in-windows-7/
    If this does not resolve the issue, the next troubleshooting step will be restoring the power defaults to normal settings. To perform this task, go to the start menu, type “CMD” in the search bar. Now, you should see a shortcut for CMD above. Right click on it, and click “run as administrator”. If it asks you for administrative permission, please allow permission.
    You should see Command Prompt open. Type the following command in this window and hit Enter afterward (without the quotations): "powercfg -restoredefaultschemes"
    Restart the computer afterward and observe what happens. If the issue persists, this is next command I require you to enter in Command Prompt as administrator (without the quotations): "sfc /scannow".
    This will take a series of minutes to complete. Running this might find a corrupted file or service and repair it. After it completes it will basically say either no corrupted files were found, corrupted files were found and repaired, or corrupted files were found but were unable to be repaired. Restart after this completes and observe the results.
    If the issue still persists, the next step will be performing a hard reset on the desktop. To do this, turn off the computer, and unplug all cables attached to the tower and monitor (including all power sources) for a few minutes. Plug all the cables back in and turn on the computer, and see if the issue persists.
    if the issue is not eliminated, I would attempt all pertinent troubleshooting steps in these HP documents below (since they address causes for black screens in various situations):
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&lc=en&docname=c01881110 (this document is specific to notebooks, so please follow all relevant troubleshooting)
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&lc=en&docname=bph04760
    If the issue is not resolved, you are likely experiencing a hardware failure. At that point you should contact HP technical support for additional information. You can utilize this website to locate the most suitable number, based on your region: http://www8.hp.com/us/en/contact-hp/ww-contact-us.html
    Please let me know if you found this information useful by marking it with a Kudos and Accepted Solution, and others will be able to locate this information easier. Please inform me with your results, and any additional questions or concerns. I will look forward to your response.

  • Wireless Network Does Not Work After Coming Out of Sleep

    I have a WEP connection that does not broadcast. My Airport connects to it fine. When the MacBook comes out of sleep mode, sometimes it cannot connect and does not show the network in the list of available networks (because it doesn't broadcast, but the network is setup so it should show). If I turn off Airport and then immediately turn it back on, it connects right away.
    Has anyone else had this problem? Does anyone know of a fix?

    Thanks for the reply. I don't think I need to delete and recreate the connection because just bouncing the Airport on the MacBook brings the connection back online... so I don't think there is anything wrong with the connection per se. It doesn't happen every time I come backup from sleep, just often enough that it's something I'd like to see them fix in an update if it's a problem that other people are having too.
    As for switching from WEP, I have a many wireless clients in my house including laptops, desktops, printers, console systems, and iPhones/Smart-Phones. They all support WEP, but they don't all support WPA. I'd rather try to keep from buying new network cards or new printers.
