Latest Update does not fix Sleep when lid is closed.

I updated my Macbook Pro Retina with latest fix for Sleep + Nap. Today on my way to work, I closed the lid of the Macbook Pro, and when I got into the office, I took it out my bag and it was running extremely hot! I was surprised, as closing the lid should put it to sleep and not consume so much power. This is extremely dangerous for such an expensive laptop and should be fixed asap, this is unacceptable Apple, please fix this asap.
I run
OSX Mountain Lion 10.8 (All UPDATES are installed)
Parellels
Carbon Copy
Diablo
No other custom software.

Latest Update does not fix unresponsive settings

I have upgraded to the latest version of the Flash Player for Mac OS X Lion (v10.3.183.7) and I am still experiencing the unresponsive settings screen. I have made sure to completely uninstalled the prior verson, reboot and install the latest version. When I attempt to click the settings menu... it does not respond to mouse clicks. I have read that others have updated and still have this same issue. What is the fix??

This can normally be fixed by deleting the folders where Flash Player settings are kept.
On Windows see http://forums.adobe.com/thread/892474
Unfortunately I do not know where these are kept on a Mac, something 'Library'...?

How can i get my macbook pro too stay on and not sleep when lid is closed?

how can i get my macbook pro too stay on and not sleep when lid is closed?

If the machine is asleep, lid closed, and you plug in to an external monitor and an external USB keyboard, the machine will wake, anbd reconfigure the screen resolution for the external monitor, Once it has made this configuration change, you can open the lid and it will continue to address only the external monitor. At least that's how my early MacBook Pro unibody 13" works. It seems to run a bit cooler this way. It gets quite toasty with the lid closed while doing anything demanding and you are more likely to hear the fan come on. I have not seen any temps that would cause alarm, but I do get a high speed (6000 rpm), noisy fan sometimes with the lid closed, .
If you operate in the open-lid, external monitor only mode, if you deactivate the monitor for any reason, when it reactivates it will be running both screens, with all the navigation hassles this entails, so I generally set it not to deactivate the screen when in this mode.
Thus I agree with those who say that some of the cooling air is drawn in around the keyboard, the difference in cooling performance is observable. If you activate istat pro, get the computer hot running in clamshell mode, and open the lid, you can watch the CPU temp drop by a few degrees C within a couple minutes. It isn't a huge difference, but enough the lower the fan speeds.

Bridge update does not fix caching problems.

Dear Adobe,
The 5.0.1.23 update for Bridge CS6 does NOT fix the problem of constantly re-caching layered TIF files.
I originaly reported the problem here on May 16, 2012.
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1007560
At that time I also submitted a bug report via photoshop.com, and received an e-mail response from Adobe support confirming the problem had been replicated in their lab and promising a fix in the next update.
I've since tracked several other reports of this bug and related cache problems.
I assume that, at best, we will have to wait another 6 months or more for the next update. How can I assure this bug will be addressed?

Thank you for this bit of information. Maybe it means I can stop the deactivations/uninstall/reinstall/reactivate cycle to try yet another solution. And hopefully, this will stop the re-caching problem with other than tif files.

Air does not sleep when lid is closed?

My friend just bought a new 13" Air and it works great except he was confused at the fact that when he closes the lid the laptop does not go to sleep. He noticed this when he closed the laptop in a dark room and the light from the screen was leaking out. Has anyone else experienced this problem? I know on older Apple laptops sleep mode was activated when a magnet in the LCD housing hit a sensor in the upper case when you closed the lid; is this still the case? And if so anyone know where the sensor is located just so I can run a magnet over it to see what happens?

I don't see this behavior at all, but I'm wondering how does he know it's on? When closed the screen virtually seals against the bottom. If the Apple logos lit up? If so then it's obviously on. If not then it's not on.
If it's staying on, it's likely a software problem. Either there is an app or something installed than isn't sleeping or an OS problem. If it really isn't sleeping and no questionable apps have been installed, backing up and reinstalling the OS would likely fix it.

Alum Powerbook 1ghz Does not Sleep when Lid is Closed

Hi,
I have a 1ghz Aluminum Powerbook with the lower memory slot issue. Everything is working great (besides the memory issue of course), and this one other bug: When I close the lid, the powerbook does not go to sleep. I have to manually select "Sleep" for it to go to sleep. The sleep light comes on and all, but I guess it just doesn't recognize the display lid shut.
The sleep issue is not the biggest thing, but is this a sign of a bigger issue, like logic board failure? Or is it simply a sensor that is not recognizing the powerbook lid shut?
Please let me know. I'm really enjoying my "new" powerbook after selling my titanium.
Thanks!

Hi Steve,
Hmm, the lid problem is interesting - if the Powerbook doesn't wake up from opening the lid, however, then it's most likely a sensor problem, which as you found has an easy workaround. YOu could always go to the Power Section of the System Profiler and seeing if the "wake on Clamshell open" and "Wake on Clamshell Closed" are set to Yes and No respectively. If they aren't those settings, then resetting the Power Management Unit might help, or just reset the PMU and see what happens (info here: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=14449)
As far as I know, (which probably isn't much!) the memory slot issue is just annoying, and probably won't do much damage to your computer. However, (and probably what you don't want to hear!) when my computer suffered the problem 2 weeks ago, I noticed that the memory door seemed to be a little bit warmer than usual and the rest of the computer in general. So I took it to the Mac Genius in the Birmingham Apple Store and they had the logic board replaced. Now, it seems to be running at a normal temperature. But looking back on it now, the temperature change may have been just subjective - ah well, your mileage may vary.

Satellite P50T - does not sleep when lid is closed

I have a new P50T with Windows 8.1. When I close the lid it does not sleep despite
my power options being set that way. I have closed the lid, unplugged and put in my bag
just to find it on an hour later and too hot to touch.
Any information would be appreciated.
Thanks

Similar to this one. Compare wth the spec.

Change that setting, "Restart" Windows (don't shut down), restore the setting, and Restart again. Sometimes clears cobwebs in the registry.

Computer does not sleep when lid is closed

Hey everyone,
Until about 15 minutes ago I had my powerbook G4 set to sleep whenever I closed the lid. Well, now it does not want to.
I installed a screensaver and used it for a little bit, and now uninstalled it.
The problem is, ever since installing and selecting that screensaver my computer won't sleep when I close the lid.
What is the process to restore this and get it so that it sleeps when I close the lid?
Thanks in advance!

Latest update does not work and corrupted my computer

The latest update caused all my applications to stop operating. Whenever I try to open any application, I get the message "This file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action." In addition, all program shortcut icons on my desktop look like they are PDF files.
When I uninstall the reader program, my computer returns to normal.
Is there a fix or do I stop reading PDF files?

Something to look over: Application, file icons change to Acrobat/Reader icon

MacBook will not sleep when lid is closed

I just noticed in the last few weeks that whenever I close my MacBook it will not go to sleep. I've had it only a year and protect it like a baby so I'm not sure what happened (maybe a recent update is buggy).
I've done some research and it seems that there are some problems with MacBook Pros but not so much with MacBooks.
Is there anyone out there that is having the same problem or has had the same problem and has fixed it?
I've tried reseting the SMC and PRAM and repairing the permissions...any other suggestions? I don't feel like going down to the Apple Store unless my baby is in immediate danger.
Thanks

Console.app will allow you to check various logs. The root system one should be reflecting any major issues, though be aware the description may not be in plain english.
Another issue I found is that certain classes of USB storage devices can wake the mac back up immediately after it sleeps on lid shut, especially external multicard readers (sd/mmc combo etc). If there is any USB equipment, try unplugging it all first before closing the lid and see if you have a different outcome.

IWeb update does not fix nav bar problem

The subject says it. Downloaded 2.0.1 with hope, republished and uploaded pages, but nav bar still does not appear. Only black dot. Wish I could revert to previous version.

I don't know if this will solve your problem but I had the exact same experience. I have a site which I publish to a folder and then use transmit to ftp to a server. I also have the same site published to .mac. The black dot problem was only affecting the non.mac site. After iWeb 08 update I noticed a scripts folder and a feed.xml file in the site folder which I'm sure wasn't there before??? When I uploaded this folder and file as well as the index.html file it solved my problem. I'm no expert and I'm not sure why!!! but it might help...

Screen replaced on 17in--now PB will not sleep when lid is closed

I recently replaced my screen to a glossier LG Philips lp171w02 screen. My problems are that my pb will not go to sleep when I close the lid and the brightness keys also are not functioning. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Is there a way to non-destructively remove this magnet from my 17" PowerBook (older one with 1440x900 display)? I don't like that my PowerBook sleeps when I close it, and I've asked Apple if there is a way to disable this functionality. Short of plugging in an external display, they told me no.
This option is built in to the Windows OS, and I've grown quite accustomed to putting my laptops to sleep manually. I'd really like to be able to have the lid closed and still let programs run, downloads continue, etc.

HT4623 Software update does not come up when I go into settings/gereral, anyone know what to do?

Y

Software Update did not appear in Settings until iOS 5. You need to start iTunes on the computer you normally sync with, connect your iPad oto that computer, select your iPad in iTunes and then select the General tab.
Scroll down under General until you find the check for update choice. Select that and follow the prompts.
