IMAC gets stuck in sleep mode

Hi all!
Could somebody please advice me what is going on with my iMAC Intel Core i3. I have just installed new update for 10.6.8. iMAC gets stuck after sleep mode. Power on/off is only the way to get him alive.
I tried to 'google' this issue. Non of topics I found helped ;(
Please!!

You can try some basic troubleshooting:
First restart in Safe Mode this will clear some caches.
If that doesn't help then use Disk Utility (Applications - Utilities - Disk Utility) to Repair Disk Permissions
If that doesn't help then download and install the 10.6.8 Update Combo. Of course make sure you have a good backup before installing the Update Combo!

Macbook Pro 17" (Mid-2009) Randomly Getting Stuck in Sleep Mode when Unplugged

Hey guys, this is my first time posting so please excuse me if I do anything wrong. Here's the issue:
I have a Macbook Pro 17" (Mid-2009) that has had an issue with the whole computer shutting down at random, but only when unplugged from the MagSafe power adapter. Upon scouring all the forums and discussions I could, I haven't found anyone with the same exact circumstances as myself, hence this post. Let me explain.
Many say it's a battery issue. That can't be, because this has been happening for months, and after I finally got my laptop repaired a few days ago, it still occurs. I had sent it in for a logic board failure, but consented them to fix any other parts that weren't functioning properly. Upon the return of my machine, I found that they installed a fresh hard drive, new battery, new logic board, and a new speaker on the right side. This must mean that neither the logic board nor the battery are the issue.
What else can this point to? Again, it only occurs when the Mac is unplugged from a power source, and it doesn't totally shut down. It goes half way, essentially stuck in sleep mode. The white indicator light on the front freezes, and the power button has to be held to fully turn the laptop off, then pressed again to reboot. It can last anywhere from a single minute to a few hours before shutting off again, and it's always the exact same circumstance, no matter what kind of computing I'm doing at the time.
Note that while no one else has found the solution to lie within resetting the PRAM or SMC (in the discussions I read), I still need to try that tonight and see if it affects anything.
Thanks in advance,
Sean

Macs are having problems with SSD drives. The root cause is the OS X journaling file system. The Apple-written SATA controller driver can saturate the bus at times, inhibiting performance. Some manufactures are even selling special "Mac" versions of their SSD drives that are slowed down on purpose to compensate for this problem. Unfortunately, the problem still exists in Snow Leopard, from what I've read.
Also, I read that Apple has secretly slowed the recent new laptops down (3.0GB/s to 1.5GB/s) to compensate for the problem.

IMac Sleep problems. Mac gets stuck in sleep mode

My iMac has been having Sleep issues for a couple of months now. At First when you put it to sleep, you could hear it was still on. It would take about 15 minutes for it to go to sleep. During this time you could not wake it even by moving the mouse or keyboard. The screen also remained blank.
If you didn’t touch the machine, it would sleep after 15 minutes. If you moved the mouse/keyboard, after 15 minutes it would load to the last position.
Now the problem has worsened. When you put it to sleep the same above happens except it never sleeps. After 15 minutes it wakes itself automatically with the screen remaining blank. Then after 10 minutes or so it will try to go to sleep on its own but you can still hear the machine is on. This process repeats itself continuously. If you try and wake the computer it can take 5 – 10 minutes to come out of the cycle and then it works.
Any ideas?

My iMacG5 is getting stuck in sleep mode.

After my computer goes into sleep mode, I can't wake it up without having turn the computer off and on again. What should I do?

My 2009 iMac gets stuck on the grey Apple logo when booting up. It boots correctly when in safe mode. I have tried erasing the HD and re-installing from a USB installer. It says the install is complete, but after restarting it gets stuck on the Apple log

My late 2009 27" iMac gets stuck on the grey Apple logo when booting up. It boots correctly when in safe mode. I have tried erasing the HD and re-installing from a USB installer. It says the install is complete, but after restarting it gets stuck on the Apple logo again. This could possibly be an HD failure, but then why does Safe Mode still work and the USB install not work? Any ideas?

1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
Don't be put off merely by the seeming complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. All it does is to collect information about the state of the computer. That information goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. However, you should be cautious about running any kind of program (not just a shell script) at the behest of a stranger. If you have doubts, search this site for other discussions in which this procedure has been followed without any report of ill effects. If you can't satisfy yourself that the instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
☞ Paste into the window of another application.
☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
4. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
5. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
6. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
7. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
8. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "syntax error," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
9. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
10. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
[Process completed]
to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report the results. No harm will be done.
11. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with "Model Identifier." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
12. When you post the results, you might see the message, "You have included content in your post that is not permitted." It means that the forum software has misidentified something in the post as a violation of the rules. If that happens, please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
Note: This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

Wifi gets disconnected when iMac is restored after sleep mode.

Everytime my imac is restored from sleep mode I have to reconfigure my wifi settings, starting to become a pain.

HACKINT0SH wrote:
It's a known issue, engineering is working on it.
Do you know this as fact? For engineering to be working on it, they would have to admit they had a problem.
In the meantime, I would simply disable sleep mode. It's not like an iMac really needs it.
Also questionable. I've seen the electrolytics on the logic board "pop their tops" on an iMac that had sleep mode disabled.

MacBook Pro stuck in sleep mode: can't restart or shut down, black screen

I'm running the latest version of Snow Leopard on my mid-2009 MacBook Pro Unibody. After installing the latest Software Update, including a Firmware update for my SuperDrive, the following problem has occurred, for the very first time:
I closed the lid of my laptop for the night, as I do routinely every night, thus putting my MBP to sleep. I leave the various apps open, usually Firefox, iTunes and Entourage. The next morning my MBP felt hot and the screen remained black... it would not change. After repeatedly trying and failing to clear the black screen and bring my apps up, I held the power button down to do a complete Shut Down. My system turned off, but did not do an actual Shut Down. When I press the power button to turn it on, it comes right back into sleep mode with the screen remaining black. I cannot seem to force either a Shut Down or a Restart. I unplugged all peripherals and the power cord, let my MBP cool down completely--for a couple of hours-- and tried everything again. Still no change: I'm stuck in sleep mode with a black screen. I've also tried resetting the PRAM and the SMC, but neither works, probably because I'm not coming from a Shut Down. Is anybody else having this problem? Anyone have any suggestions? I think the problem must be somehow related to the latest update, but whatever it is, I'd like to resolve it.
Thanks in advance for any help.

I can't get into my system to see my update version, but I'm certain I'm running the most up-to-date version of Snow Leopard and all other latest updates applicable to my mid-2009 MBP, as I run Software Update routinely. I thoroughly completed all update installations, including the SuperDrive Firmware update, followed all instructions meticulously, including rebooting, and actually used my system for at least one full day without any problems. I'd even recently repaired all permissions. Everything was "humming" along very well. This problem came totally out of the blue. Because the screen is black, I can't actually see what's on it; however, I've put my MBP to sleep every night by closing the lid and it awakens in the morning when I raise the lid. This time the sleep light indicator is on, but nothing happens when I lift the lid, touch the track pad or a key. If I hold the power button down briefly, the sleep light goes out, but when I press the power button again, the light comes right back on. If I depress the power button for several seconds, to initiate a shutdown or restart, it simply shuts off the fan and refuses to completely shut down. This is evidenced by the fact that depressing the power button to start up brings the sleep light on very quickly. I can tell by the way the system sounds that it is on behind the blackened screen. Sorry I can't get you the update versions.
Thanks

My ipad 3 keeps getting stuck in headphone mode, i have tired many fixes - help!

So I as I said, my ipad keeps getting stuck in headphone mode. Sometimes I can get it out is I soft reset my phone (hold home and wake/sleep button) but other times not.
I have reinstalled my ipad software, cleaned the hole with a cotton bud, played with the mute button and put my headphone jack in and out many times.
What can I do?
Thank you,
Lucy

Have you tried a different set of headphones?

HP photosmart 6510 stuck in sleep mode

My 6510 once it has been idle anytime from a few hours to several days, the printer will not print anything in the que. I get the message "Printer not Responding". I assume that it is stuck in sleep mode. The only fix is to unplug the power cord and plug it back in. This doesn not solve the problem as I have to do it every time if I haven't printed in a while. I have disabled auto-off but that doesn't seem to work. Any fixes?

These settings are for setting up your wireless printer to stay connected to your router, keep wireless devices better connected and make your router secure and hack proof.
1. Set a static IP in the printer (click here) outside the DHCP range of the router (check your manual).
   This is for Linksys routers but can be used for all routers. Verify your DHCP range and change this
   first if needed. More Wireless Printing help is here.
2. Verify in the printer that 'Auto Off' is disabled. Use the Embedded Web Server (EWS) by going to the
   printers IP address in your browsers address bar, click Settings Tab/Auto Off. Or use the Printer
   Assistant, Printer Home Page (EWS).
In the router: (Refer to your router manual for information)
3. Use a fixed wireless channel like 1, 6 or 11, never 'auto', try channel 1 first then the rest.
4. Set router to 20Mhz only, or 145Mbps depending on router.
5. Always use WPA2-AES (Personal) encryption, but you can try ‘mixed’ mode.
6. Disable WPS and never use it and disable UPnP for the routers security. Nobody can hack your
   system now and helps with wireless connectivity (if you want to know why, search the web).
7. If you have a dual band router (2.4Ghz and 5.0Ghz bands), make sure the SSID’s are NOT the same,
   they must be different for all bands, even for any Guest networks.
8. Save all settings. Power off both, wait 2 mins. Power on router wait 2 mins.
9. Power on printer and verify it reconnects to router.

My Mac wont start, seems to be stuck in sleep mode

Hello there,
So just recently my computer died while in sleep mode. I put it on the charger and let it be. However, now when I turn on the power it seems like it is stuck in sleep mode, there is no connecting chime (when powered up) the keyboard fails to work as a means of getting the notebook to start up. The fan and or disk is running really slow at first but then gets louder. I am not skilled with my Mac, was wondering if there is an easy fix or I should get on my way to the repair store.
PS - I have tried the command+option+escape to kill all the apps running but that seems to not work? anything else i should try?
Please help.

Hold down the Power button for 10 or 15 seconds until the computer shuts down. Then restart it if possible. If it won't restart then make a Genius Appointment and take it in for service.

Iphone 6 gets stuck in landscape mode

Hello
iphone 6 or possibly the ios update has some bugs. For instance, it gets stuck in landscape mode even though the screen rotation is not locked.
In addition, safari does not react quickly when trying to access the menu to close a page or add a new one. It takes several attempts and after uing the home button several times, the menu finally appears.
Please advise

This is happening to me too. Some posts indicates that it is more likely to happen in zoom mode and switching to standard mode fixes it, but my phone has always been in standard mode. I am having this problem with an iPhone 6 128 GB phone with iOS 8.1. I hope this is only a software problem and not a hardware problem.

IPhone 6 getting stuck in landscape mode

My iPhone 6 keeps getting stuck in landscape mode. Also the camera will not always open from the locked screen, it just bounces up and down but does not slide all the way up to launch the camera app. Is apple working on a fix?

Hi Sunnifromlondon,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If your iPhone screen is not rotating as expected, there could be several potential causes. First, we can attempt some troubleshooting steps that may resolve the issue.
I recommend going through all of the steps in this support site article:

Samsung stratosphere keeps getting stuck in landscape mode?

All of a sudden a couple of days ago my phone started getting stuck in landscape mode, even when the auto rotation was off. I didn't mess with any of the settings to make this happen but sometimes I have to turn the screen on and off a couple of times before it goes back to regular mode. I even factory reset the phone today, but it is still going on.

Hmm it would do that too, but I actually just realized what the problem was when
I took the snap on case off. Apparently when I slide the keyboard down the
bottom part of the screen goes beyond the part where it's supposed to stop. I'm
guessing that caused some kind of censor to not work properly. But thanks for
the help.
