IMac7.1 (10.7.5) Random Sleep Cause:-100

I have an iMac 7.1 (2007) The OS is (10.7.5). It has taken to going to sleep periodically. When I click the mouse, it will wake back up. Of course whatever was processing is halted and the wireless connection is dropped.
Whenever this happens, if I check the console logs, I get a log statement such as:
                   kernel: Previous Sleep Cause: -100
This is not the power management settings, the computer is set to never sleep and to not dim the display for hours. The sleep will happen when using the system. I had thought it was related to graphics as it had happened more with the videos. It has since proven to happen even if just listening to music on iTunes. (I think I have noticed it happens more frequently when synching an iPhone/iPod but not all of the time.)
I haven taken into the geniuses twice and left it overnight. The issue could not be replicated at the store. The system diagnostic scan shows the components as healthy. I was encouraged to look for something environmental. There was some thought that it may be a power supply but this was just a guess and the power supply does not fail diagnostics.
Virus scanning turns up nothing.
I have taken all accessorries off the system other than the USB keyboard and mouse and a single USB cable for iPhone/iPod. This includes disabling and unplugging the time machine.
I have put a UPS between the system and the wall with no other components on the UPS to rule out poor power input or low quality power. This shows the output remains between 121 and 125 V and 0.105 Kw at 60 Hz.
Using istat pro from bjango, i see no particular pattern on the system operating conditions when the failure occurs.
After the above, the problem has become less frequent but still occurs.
output from pmset -g is:

The memory, disks, etc, have not changed. The only changes have been periodic S/W updates and time. Powersupply was replaced by Apple 25 months ago.
Any suggestions?

After reading other threads, I decided to run memtest to verify the memory in single user mode. The system passed.
I also upgraded to Mountain Lion 10.8.2 and applied any subsequent updates. I also re-enabled the timemachine.
I noticed this changes the type of messages in the logs. I have had one failure after the update:

  • IMac randomly goes to sleep / Previous Sleep Cause: -100

    iMac (24 inch Early 2009, 2.93 GHz Core 2 Duo, Lion 10.7.3) randomly goes sleep.
    No hot corners, never sleep setting.
    It seems it goes to sleep more often when CPU is busy and graphic intensive jobs running (videos, gaming).
    I cleaned up air ways by vaccume, but it did not help.
    Temp monitor showed
      CPU 55C
      power supply 95C
      northbridge 89C
      graphic processer goes up to 86C
    when it went to sleep for no apparent reason. Are those causing issue? If so what can I do?
    /private/var/log/kernel.log says
       "Previous Sleep Cause: -100"
    Any idea what this is?
    Thanks!

    I took the iMac to nearest AppleStore and they opened it and cleaned up inside.
    After that, it has not yet gone to random sleep yet while I've been trying to reproduce heavy CPU/GPU load for ~1h (while I could make it happen in 15min this morning).
    So far highest temp went down to:
      CPU 55C             => 44C
      power supply 95C => 72C
      northbridge 89C     => 82C
      graphic processer 86C => 70C
    Tech at AppleStore bar didn't know what Sleep Cause: -100 is.

  • Macbook Pro Early 2009 Randomly Sleeps / Black Screen While In use

    My macbook pro Early 2009, randomly goes to sleep while I am using the computer, I first noticed it occuring while I was using the mini display adapter to a computer monitor, and using a second monitor and watching a movie, the screen would go blank and I would have to wake it from sleep for it to come back on, sometimes closing the lid, sometimes pressing the trackpad, or keyboard to get it to work again, sometimes it would go back to sleep within 1 minute of waking.
    I assume the problem could have been from perhaps water damage, as I recently used a wet paper towel to clean my keyboard, and perhaps the paper towel was a little to moist, not overly but perhaps just enough to damage the sleep sensor. I am still unsure where that is located, the only other problem I have noticed with the computer is my [battery service indicator] notification has been on for the last year, but since I never used the battery, I always have it plugged in at the desk I never bothered getting it serviced. So
    I'm assuming its the Sleep Sensor? but here is what I hace done, just to make sure its not software. I was orignaly running 10.8, and after being frustrated while watching a movie and having my computer sleep every 2 minutes, I whipped my hardrive, put 10.9 developers preview on a usb and installed that.
    On 10.9 I can swipe with 3 fingers on the trackpad and the display appears but if i let go of the swipe it goes back to black screen.
    I can see Icons like, brightness, and sound, when adjusting the levels, but screen is black behind the icons
    The mouse pointer cursor is visible but the screen is black
    I can move the mouse and hear system sounds, but screen is black. Now I have to actually restart the computer because It seems like I cannot wake it up at all.
    So I formatted the hardrive again and
    I tried reinstalling Leopard OSX , as that was the disc that came with the mac,
    but have Same problems in 10.5, 10.6, 10.7, 10.8 I upgraged to developer 10.9 to see if the problem would fix, but still occurs.
    I ran hardware diagnostic off the leopard disc 2, by pressing the D key on startup with disc in drive, extended hardware test reported no problems.
    I SMC reset and PRAM reset,  [control]+[option]+[shift]+[powerbutton] while computer is turned off with power plugged in
    and after that failed I tried pressing [Option]+[Command]+[P]+[R] before startup chime, chime repeat let go of keys and it booted normally.
    Then computer randomly sleeps while in use, while using safari and it has happened 3 times within 2 minutes of typing this.
    I have downloaded a program called InsomniaX, and activated the disable sleep for Lid and Idle, but now the screen will randomly just go black and then turn back on, sometimes it will just black screen for 10 seconds and come back on, altho after changing some more of the settings It appears to be not as frequent. It hasen't gone to sleep since writing this entire paragraph, so thats a good sign.
    I was going to take it into the apple store, and have them run diagnostics, but I hate going into those stores because of all the iphone people, crowding the place.
    Well my screen just blacked and came back within 10 seconds on while I typing this line so InsomniaX didn't work. I hope having the sleep sensor replaced isn't too expensive, or if my model even has such a sensor.
    I read on another topic that this problem can be replicated by users putting a magnet on their laptop, something like an iphone or a money clip or even having one of these in their pocket while using the macbook on their lap. I have not had anything near the computer, so I have a different problem.
    Just thought Id document this, will let you know what happens after the diagnostic, I tried apple support, and they said I did more than they would have done, so he couldn't really tell me anything besides take it into genius bar, (is that what its still called) and have them run diagnostic, [note its different than the hardware test on the cd]
    and my computer screen goes black again, wow..

    Hi pictureswithPS, welcome to Apple Discussions!
    1. I have an original late-2008 unibody MBP that was purchased a week after the introduction. I have never had a single "black screen of death" ever, and I do some gaming under OS X on my machine. The heat issues are, in my humble opinion, greatly exaggerated. Does the machine get warm? Yes. However, any computer with this much power in this thin of an enclosure is going to get warm. Mine has never crashed, frozen, black screened, etc. once.
    2. I don't think PS is particularly intensive on the graphics card. It may use the graphics card, yes, but I don't think it will be quite as intensive as a 3D modeling application or 3D games. I would doubt you would ever run into problems anyway.
    3. Lastly I am aware that their are tools to manage fan speed behavior - as a workaround to cool down temperatures. Using this software would it void the warranty that is provided by Apple?
    No, it wouldn't likely void the warranty. However, if your fans die prematurely as a result of running them at high speeds for extended periods of time, I doubt Apple would be especially happy about replacing them. I do not use any 3rd party tools to manage my fans, and never will. It is simply not necessary.

  • Mac goes to repeated sleep/instant-wake at night, Sleep Cause 5

    Hi There
    i have a new MacBook Pro 15" 16GB.
    - No USB Disks attached
    - Thunderbolt Display
    - Thunderbolt Gigabit Ethernet
    - USB Mice and Keyboards
    - Synology NAS for Shares and TimeMachine over Gigabit Ethernet Adapter not WLan
    My macbook has to run overnight sometimes to do some monitoring and other tasks. It's configured to stay awake but in the morning the MBP was not connected to the internet. I had to replug the Adapter to get networks back online.
    After this happened the second time i reviewed the systems log and found repeating sleep events at night:

    Any help would be nice
    thanks

    Sleep Cause: 5 is normal system sleep initiated by Energy Saver. Grep "wake reason". It will result in extracting additional helpful log entries.
    There are numerous causes for the system to wake periodically but obviously its Internet connection should not be lost upon waking, and it should not be required for you to disconnect / reconnect the Thunderbolt to Ethernet connector to reestablish connection. The usual first step in resolving a problem such as that would be an SMC reset. Try that, followed by an NVRAM reset according to the instructions below.
    It may have no effect on the problem but it's the first thing AppleCare would have you do, so you might as well try it before resorting to calling them.
    Power or other problems related to unexpected system sleep, shutdown, lights or fans call for an SMC reset. Read all the steps.
    Before Resetting the SMC
    Try each of the following steps in this order before you reset the SMC. Test the issue after completing each troubleshooting step to determine if the issue still occurs.
    Press Command + Option + Escape to force quit any application that is not responding.
    Put your Mac to sleep by choosing the Apple () menu from the upper-left menu bar and then choosing Sleep. Wake the computer after it has gone to sleep.
    Restart your Mac by choosing the Apple () menu from the upper-left menu bar and then choosing Restart.
    Shut down your Mac by choosing the Apple () menu from the upper-left menu bar and then choosing Shut Down.
    Resetting the SMC on portables with a battery you should not remove on your own
    Shut down the computer.
    Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if it's not already connected.
    On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time. The power adapter indicator light will cycle off / on once.
    Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
    Press the power button to turn on the computer.
    NVRAM reset:
    Shut down your Mac.
    Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command (⌘), Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
    Turn on the computer.
    Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys before the gray screen appears.
    Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
    Release the keys.
    After resetting NVRAM or PRAM, you may need to reconfigure your settings for speaker volume, screen resolution, startup disk selection, and time zone information. If issues persist, your Mac's logic board battery (not a portable Mac's rechargeable battery) may need to be replaced. The logic board battery helps retain NVRAM/PRAM settings when your computer is shut down. You can take your Mac to a Mac Genius or Apple Authorized Service Provider to replace the battery on the logic board.
    - Synology NAS for Shares and TimeMachine over Gigabit Ethernet Adapter not WLan
    It may not be related to the problem you describe, but you should know this is not a supported Time Machine configuration, and the Time Machine backups being created with that configuration should not be considered reliable.
    The exhaustive list of devices supported by Time Machine amounts to the following:
    AirPort Time Capsule's built-in hard disk (any model)
    External USB hard disk drive connected to a Time Capsule (any model)
    External USB hard disk drive connected to an AirPort Extreme (current model only)
    A hard disk drive directly connected either to the source Mac, or a Mac on your local network.
    That is all.
    Use whatever backup device you want, but you should be aware that this site is full of reports of misery from hapless individuals who had been using third party NAS devices for Time Machine backups, only to find that they were incomplete, corrupted, or useless in the dire circumstances in which they were required. Apple won't care if you lose your data while using a Time Machine configuration specifically excluded from their technical support documents.

  • Random sleep mode after Mountain Lion install

    Hello, I have a MacBook air 11" late 2011.
    after installing Mountain Lion I get random sleep modes, usually right after a waking up the computer.
    that has never happened before so I assume that it is a sotware issue.
    I do not have a hot corner for sleep (have checked)
    anybody else has the same problem

    It goes to sleep sometimes right after I wake up the computer ..
    wake up , 3-5 seconds .. I click somewhere.. it goes to sleep
    any downsides of resetting the PRAM and SMC

  • Display randomly sleep at times?

    At odd times, the display and keyboard backlight of my Macbook randomly sleep. The computer continues to wake after I click the trackpad, or press a few keys. The display sleep is not as a result of inactivity, while I am using it, typing, surfing or otherwise, it will sleep. It sometimes acts as a flicker because I am typing as it sleeps and wakes. The same thing can be reproduced by pressing the controlshifteject buttons.
    Do I need my logic board replaced? Should I just return it?

    Apparently, the issue deals with the Logic board, and the motion sensor. I'm sure its repairable, unfortunately, Apple has lost me as a customer. I found that the audio device in my new Macs powersaves, making an annoying poping sound, that can be found here > http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2108844&tstart=0 .
    Other than that, for anyone reading this, the "display sleeps while im typing" glich is a hardware issue.

  • W520 random sleeping and black screens - videos of issue attached

    Btw my mobo,cpu,memory i believe were all replaced last time i took it in with this issue...
    Still getting it consistantly:
    Random Black Screens and Random Sleeping:
    www.youtube.com/watch?v=AvWl9ck26xI
    Black Screen:
    www.youtube.com/watch?v=7A3NqnC80iU
    I thought before maybe its Bluetooth related as sometimes when screen would turn black and then come back, I would get a 'Bluetooth Device Not Discoverable'. So turned off Bluetooth in the BIOS, but still having display/sleep issues.
    I removed hte Lenovo Power Manager/PM Driver, and turned off sleeping in the Windows power settings (in every setting including if Low Battery Action). Any ideas?
    I just upgraded to a 3 year warranty (the more expensive one), should i just ask to replace mobo/cpu/memory again or will Lenovo actually test it for other issues?
    Thanks,
    Ari
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Well my issue wasn't an external monitor... it would goto sleep by itself when Im trying to write code/programming... then randomly wake and go back to sleep up constantly ruining workflow (or wait a few hours Im sleeping at odd times in the morning lol). or the monitor would turn black suddenly. I think I tested via external monitor but didn't matter what result was, the random sleeping issues indicated a larger issue.
    It was a crimped connector the 1st time it went back to Lenovo. the past 4/5 times its gone back i think they are stumped. For me, Im honestly not sure... it might be the OS is on a mSATA instead of the regular hard drive and Windows doesnt know how to handle that hardware.
    Their newer W540 manual seems to indicate do an OS on mSATA at your expense.
    Do you have an mSATA OS? Anyway, thats a very small chance. not sure.

  • Random sleeping, sporatic battery

    Well maybe not random sleeping....
    So I have been having some battery issues lately, and as such I have been re-calibrating the battery often. Right when I started having the battery issues, i started having the following problem:
    Usually, when my battery gets at about 10%, I get a warning that lets me know that I need to plug in my macbook before it dies. Lately, I get no warning and it goes to sleep at around 20-30%

  • Random Sleep/Shutdown

    As of recent my mini has started to randomly sleep and shutdown for no apparent reason. I have disabled all sleep options in energy savings, I have rebooted, I've removed all hardware, and still I get a shutdown or sleep every 20 seconds or so. I have no idea what to do.
    Any ideas/solutions?

    I had this same problem today, and I found that if the cable wire has broken away from it's solder that the fan likes to simulate a button press. Since you have to buy the entire bottom frame for the modular button I found a temporary solution that will work for now.
    However, I am still having the same problem, so I am going to check the switch again, but something is fishy.

  • Kernel - "Previous Sleep Cause: -60"  - WHAT DOES IT MEAN?

    Occasionally my macbook will simply 'black screen' itself, putting itself to sleep while im using it....
    waiting a while and closing/opening the screen wakes it but i cant figure out whats causing it...
    the console gives me(i think) the following reasoning...but i cant find a 'sleep cause' list of the error codes...
    one of these was:
    "5/12/08 6:06:54 PM kernel Previous Sleep Cause: -60 "
    what does this mean? it seems to only happen on battery but its annoying me ....
    any help?

    My Macbook Air also has sporadic narcolepsy. Mostly it's with the same previous sleep cause (-60), but this morning it had mysterious cause #5.
    I'm posting not in hope of a cure, but so that the folks at Apple will have two different models reported with the same problem. Should narrow it to firmware/software/shared-component issue.

    A shutdown cause of 5 is usually an OS-initiated shutdown.
    It results either from pressing the power button and then clicking 'Shutdown', or selecting Shutdown from the Apple menu.
    Shut your computer down normally, then power back up and look in Console.
    0 and 2 can indicate power loss, usually anything that's negative, like -128 or -60 is abnormal.
    If it's heat or battery related, you'll have a different code. The fact that it's showing up as 5 makes me wonder if the computer is experiencing a sudden loss of power...is it a laptop?
    A disclaimer: the codes differ slightly between models, I'm speaking from my experience, but Apple doesn't publish the meaning of the codes, so there's not a good way to be certain.

  • Random stalls caused by khugepaged?

    I have a fairly beefy Arch Linux computer, kernel 3.7.7-1-ARCH. However, recently it's been having random freeze ups. Never common, but it'd freeze for a good 15 seconds where no program is responsive. Sometimes the mouse freezes with it and the cursor doesn't move. After this happens, it'll usually happen 2 or 3 more times until I decide to just restart my computer.
    It just happened again a few minutes ago and this time I traced it using top. Whenever my computer would freeze, khugepaged CPU usage would randomly rise to 100%.
    I run VMWare with 7 gigs of RAM assigned to it, however, my computer has 16G of RAM. When this last freeze up happened, I had 6G of RAM free. To give an idea, heres the header of top
    KiB Mem: 16394208 total, 10194584 used, 6199624 free, 4 buffers
    KiB Swap: 8388604 total, 103916 used, 8284688 free, 8788952 cached
    I've seen some ways to disable khugepaged, but what bad effects could this cause? How can I just get it to behave better?

  • Connecting power source while sleep causes issue

    My macbook pro often lags when I connect or disconnect the power source while the lid is closed (sleeping).
    In other words, when I oppen it after a sleep, the screen stays black but I can hear the fans turn and see the little activity light in front.
    Is it normal, and if not, how can it be solved ?
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    After cleaning coolers my problem is still same. But when I disabled Lenovo / ThinkPad PM driver I think my problem is gone... I had random sleep problems or hibernation without reasons and temperatures are ok..
    Clean install of windows didn't help, updated drivers of any kind didn't help....
    First I assumed that is hardware problem but after driver update T400 started to goes into sleep mode when dvd is inside and I open lid goes into system and suddenly when there is notification near clock about founded new hardware in this case DVD he goes into sleep mode again...
    once agian disabled tpm driver I think fixed this problem... Now I m confused laptop worked half or year without any changes and suddenly this problem comes out of nothing...
    Is this problem of any kind of hardware or just some problem with lenovo drivers?
    thanx

  • G5 Quad, fans @ full blast & random sleeping..

    I'm using a PowerMac G5 Quad, 2.5ghz, running OS x 10.5.8 I have a problem with random sleeping,
    (the Mac, not me LOL). Sometimes it will go for days, run all night, with no problems.
    Then it suddenly goes to sleep. It's not overheating, I've cleaned it out regularly & have temp monitor running.
    It has done it within minutes of starting up. After it goes to sleep it can be woken with a mouse click of keyboard stroke,
    and 9/10 times everything is where it left off. It has crashed, but comes back OK.
    I have read a lot of stuff about firmware updates, but not sure wether to proceed.
    Another symptom is constantly noisy fans.
    How can I tell which firmware is running on the machine now?
    Can anybody advise a course of action?

    OK I,ve found my boot ROM version, It's 5.2.7f1 which is higher than any mentioned in any updates.
    I've zapped the P RAM and Reset the NV RAM...
    Still have fans @full blast at all times.
    What controls the fans? Is there somthing else I can re-load or reset?
    There's always the SMU reset: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1436
    The fans are controlled via the SMU, which has a watchdog timer running which is reset when control comes from the CPU running the system piece that monitors the thermal state of the machine.  That is why, when the system tanks, the fans will firewall as a safety measure.

  • Some web pages causing 100% CPU use of iexplore.exe since Flash update

    I'm having a problem with certain Amazon.com pages hanging my
    Internet Explorer 6 using Flash Player 10,0,12,36, causing 100% CPU
    use for iexplore.exe and requiring me to End Task to quit. All the
    pages effected have an interactive mouseover Size and Color chart
    that intially says "Loading" but then says "Select Size and Color"
    once loaded. One mouseovers the various color patches and size
    options, each time giving item availability in that option. When
    the pages hang the IE browser with 100% CPU use that chart never
    gets to the "Select Size and Color" point, instead stuck at the
    "Loading" status. This happens most times, but not every time.
    Sometimes the pages load correctly, after a brief lag as it loads
    the chart.
    Amazon pages without this chart load fine.
    The start of this problem coincides with updating Flash.
    I can prevent the problem from happening almost every time if
    I can quickly get my cursor into that chart area while the page
    begins loading. If I allow the pages to load fully with no
    interaction they will hang almost every time.
    I have not noticed any problems on those same web pages using
    Firefox using Flash Player 9,0,124,0
    I also have not noticed any issues with other sites using
    Internet Explorer either. (YouTube, QVC, CNN...etc, all OK.)
    I had posted for assistance on the Experts Exchange site and
    there was some debate on whether the chart was a Java or
    Flash-based chart, so initially it was being approached as a
    possible Java issue, so I removed all Java versions on the system
    and installed various versions, but the same problem persists.
    I've downloaded but not run the Flash Uninstaller, as I'm
    reluctant to uninstall the Firefox Flash version without knowing
    for sure I could install 9,0,124,0 again.
    I've downloaded an archived fp9_archive.zip, which seems to
    indicate the contained files flashplayer9r124_winax.exe (Internet
    Explorer) and flashplayer9r124_win.exe (Netscape) would be versions
    9,0,124,0 to install after running the uninstaller.
    Can anyone check a few of the links below and see if the
    "Select Size and Color" chart is Flash based? If so, would
    executing the files listed above install 9,0,124,0 into my
    respective browsers again?
