Lion tabs to a different app on wakeup from sleep

I'm seeing this issue on both my MBP and Air which are shut and opened with some regularity. Both machines are on 10.7.2. I can have any number of applications open but say I've just got two open, Terminal and TextEdit (although it happens with any two apps).
1. Use Terminal
2. Switch to TextEdit as the active app
3. Close the computer, it goes to sleep
4. Open the computer, it wakes up, shows TextEdit briefly before it automatically switches back to Terminal
This happens with any apps, full-screen mode or not, different desktop spaces or not. It's minor but annoying when you're using it to take notes and it keeps switching to another application. I've searched the web and the forums and I've only seen one other person mention this, so I'm hopeful that there's a trivial solution for this. Does anyone know?

I feel your pain. I have the same problem since I bought this machine: MacBook Air 2011 version with Lion.
Already wrote Apple about this like three times.
In addition to this, waking-up takes forever when compared to Snow Leopard in my 2008 MBA.
Today's update 10.7.4 unfortunately did not solve this problem.
UPDATE: I found the solution here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/15949817

I have problem with WIFI every wakeup from sleep after 10.7.3 (21.5-inch, Mid 2011)

Since 10.7.3 update, i have to manually reconnect to my WiFi network at every wakeup from sleep in 21.5-inch, 2011 (intel i5)!
Apple fix it!

The App Switcher of Mac OS X Lion doesn't display properly after waking up from sleep

Hey guys,
I have a MacBook Pro15 inch Core2Duo 2.66GHz running Mac OS X 10.7.2.
When my Mac woke up from sleep, sometime the Application Switcher doesn't show the iconc properly like this.
Other time, it shows the dark icon.
The color profile setting seems to be messed up. But it only affects certain apps.
Some of my affected apps are
Application Switcher
like attached image
Icons got darker
TweetDeckThe app becomes darker overall
Gaicho Software's XRGThe supposed-to-be orange indicater became red
Is there any solution to this?
Thanks in advanced!

Yes, change your display / colour profile to a different (or the default) profile. Has worked for myself, and many others on other forums.
Hope that helps...

I upgraded to Mountain Lion.Now I have trouble waking it up from sleep mode. Why?

I upgraded to Mountain Lion on my MacBook. I am now having trouble waking it up from sleep mode. Does anyone know why or how to wake it up. I try tapping the space bar, trackpad & other keys. Sometimes I think it's never going to wake up.

I'm not certain but my new MBA 13...when in sleep mode comes back on from a black screen when I simply click on the left mouse button. Also, one time I did a SECURE EMPTY TRASH on files that totalled more than 1GB and it took so long that the fan kept increasing in speed so I pressed on the POWER button and the MBA shut...I was able to boot up with no problem. As a rule, I now only do secured erases for trash bin data totalling 500mb or less...anything above that gets a regular erase (dump).

Thin vertical lines appearing on screen, since wakeup from sleep mode.

My Mac G5, 2GHz, DVD-R, 1GB DDR RAM, OSX 10.4.10, ATI RADEON X800 XT has recently developed a display issue. On start-up the screen shows vertical lines across the entire screen. The colors of theses lines is varying from green to black, depending of the background color. The lines are appearing from the grey loading screen and when a profile is logged in.
Shutting down and restarting doesn't cure the problem, nor does staring in safe mode nor starting up from an install CD. I also tried re-installing the operating system, but I get the same result. I tried another monitor but I also get the lines on screen. I verified all the cables and that the graphic card is well in place in the pci slot.
If I change the resolution, I also get thoses lines but they change place on screen. Also, if I set the colors level to 256 colors, I get very little single lines but If I set the color level to the highest (36,7 Millions), the lines appears in group of 5+ and are all over the screen.
I tried taking a screenshot using the shortcut cmd-shift-3 and I can see the line in the pictures. Also, if I take a screenshot of a window that is behind the window in the front ( using cmd-shift-4-space ), I dont see the line on the screen shot.
I started to have this problem when my mac was woke up from sleep mode and the problem has persisted since then.
I guess my problem is the graphic card but I would like an external opinion before I got buy another one.
Thanks

Any new results?
I'm having the same issue. Looks like this, but at a slight angle and different RGB colors (almost like JPG artifacting).
Started this evening after a cold boot. I just put my X800 XT Mac G5 edition in 2 weeks ago. No real heavy use either, as I've been gone for a week.
Looks to me like bad VRAM (according to TechTool Deluxe). I'm running the AHT now and will hopefully come to a final conclusion soon. I did test my 20" Apple monitor (DVI) with my laptop and there was no problem...so it is definitely the video card. Not sure if the aforementioned ATI ROM extender will fix it or not.
Much luck to all of us who are having this problem.

After installing Lion OSX on Macbook Air, no longer wakes from sleep

Since installing Lion and after update to 10.7.4, Mac book Air no longer wakes from sleep. Have to hold pwr key for a few seconds and restart. Tried resetting SMC and PRAM but no effect.

Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
If there's no change, do as follows.
Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
If you are prompted to log in, type your password, and then hold down the shift key again as you click Log in.
*Note: If FileVault is enabled under OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode. Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

Mavericks Second monitor not detected after wakeup from sleep

Hi everybody,
seems like my problem is getting worse after updating to the latest Mavericks (10.9.5), but the general problem came up with upgrading to Mavericks.
I have two monitors connectet to my 3,1 MacPro with ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT 256 MB, which worked without any problems for years (since SnowLeopard).
After upgrading to Mavericks the Mac started loosing the connection to the second monitor after waking up from sleep.
At first only sporadically and then coming up more often. Some Google search showed that I wasn't alone with this problem. When I first started to find a solution for this, some of the workarounds others recommended seemed to help like resetting the PRAM, choosing another resolution with pressed alt button etc. but over time nothing really solved the problem. I only had a chance to get back my second monitor whenever the problem ocurred. Today none of these procedures seem to help, so I give it a shot with this post...maybe someone has a real solution for this (or at least can confirm exactly the same problem so that I can rule out some other reason than a buggy Mavericks?!?).
What I can rule out from trying different setups:
- It is not a problem of monitor brand (no NEC, both same model Xerox brand) nor size (both same resolution and 22")
- it is not a problem of connections and cables (switching the pluging switches the problem to the other monitor)
-> which brings me to the idea that the problem occurs with just one of the graphic cards ports. But since I have no other card available I'd like to rule out software problems before buying new hardware!
- The problem comes up only when waking up from sleep (immediately trying to reboot after the problem has ocurred brings no solution, the secon monitor stays undetected). Shutting down the Mac and booting up after a while (no specific time, but at least a couple of minutes) brings up both monitors perfectly.
- The monitrs try to get through to the Mac: when switching off the undetected monitor manually and switching it on again, it displays: No signal, going to sleep
Hope there is some help around here...this is really getting annoying!
Yours,
Ray

The weird thing is that every morning, when I move my mouse to wake the computer, both displays go from black to show the desktop but the second display immediately goes back to black. Unplugging it and plugging it back in eventually works after multiple trys. Restarting the computer sometimes works but not always.
The only other major change to my computer before this started happening is that I installed Leopard.
So far I've tried setting my Macbook Pro not to go to sleep but that didn't change anything.
Should I try setting my displays not to go to sleep either? I haven't tried that because Energy Saver warned me that it could reduce the lifespan of the display.

Spinning Ball after wakeup from Sleep for a long time

If I wakeup my iMac after it has been a sleep overnight, the spinning ball appears does not stop. I am not able to click on anything with the mouse and the keyboard is not responsive. In other words, everything freezes up.
I have an external hard drive hooked up to the computer, if that is relevant.
Any suggestions on how to fix this?

I have 3 GBs of RAM. I typically have 3-4 apps running such as Safari, Firefox, and Word. This morning my computer woke up fine and there wasn't a spinning ball. I don't think I did anything yesterday that would have fixed the problem. Prior to this morning, I was having the spinning ball/freeze problem for the previous 4 days.
If the problem goes away, I'll post back to this forum.

Why do I get a blank white screen on wakeup from sleep?

When my iMac wakes from s sleep lasting more than 10 minutes, I get a completely white screen. Everything is working well: when I move the cursor to the screen bottom, my toolbar appears, and when I click on an app icon, the part of the screen in and around its windows refreshes. (If I click on Launchpad, the entire screen refreshes). Is this a new bug? Advice on fixes, please?
God Bless,
Ken Franklin

Upon wakeup from sleep, external display is not detected

Hello. I have a mini display port to vga and have an external display hooked up to my 15" macbook pro. Once I put the macbook pro to sleep, and then wake it up, it turns to a blue screen (the kind when you plug in or remove an external monitor), and then prompts me for my password. Does anyone else have this issue? I think it might be because I did not buy the "official" mini display port to vga adapter (got mine from monoprice), and want to know if anyone has this issue using the official adapter. Thanks.

Exactly the same issue. My Eizo Coloredge was working fine after installation until (just now) I dared to do a restart...
I have tried various different displays and connections over the past 20 minutes and have restarted my mac (late 2013 MBP 15' Retina) and connected / disconnected multiple times. Neither my Coloredge via Thunderbolt or HDMI (no signal detected) is recognised, nor a Samsung LCD via HDMI.
SO frustrating that something this basic should now be 'broken' when it was fine under Mavericks (and earlier OS). Come on Apple, let's get a fix. Plenty of people rely on external monitors.
Sigh.

Windows 7 – 802.1x Authentication fails after wakeup from Sleep/Hibernation

In our environment we randomly have issues with 802.1x authentications after Sleep or Hibernation of our client-systems.
Clients have Windows 7 as OS and are up-to-date regarding regular updates/patches. Drivers (at least
network and chipset) on affected machines have also been updated.
802.1x authentication method is PEAP (EAP-MSCHAPv2) and systems are validated
against Active Directory by RADIUS.
Analyzing the logs of our RADIUS-Server you can see that the client trys to authenticate
via MAC instead of its DNS-Name/FQDN (desired method). So the request fails and the client is assigned to a different VLAN without access to the company’s resources. Following steps like DHCP work correctly.
We have enabled the tracing of RAS-components on some of our clients by executing the following command-line: netsh ras set tracing
* enabled
Analyzing the client’s log-file “C:\Windows\tracing\svchost_RASCHAP.LOG” it looks like that the
component is simply not up at that point in time, because there are absolutely no entries making it impossible to search for a specific error/error-code. Side-fact: unplugging the network-cable and plugging it in again forces the client to
authenticate again – successfully and with entries in the given log.
There has been an article KB980295 describing my issue but that does not apply to Windows 7. Hotfix KB2736878 cannot be applied (0x80240017
- install is not needed because no updates are applicable).
Does anyone have an idea how you could force the component to initialize earlier (if it is possible at all)?
Any other advice is highly appreciated as well!
Thanks a lot

Hi Deason,
sorry for my very very late reply on this.
Even if I could not solve the problem yet, I can tell about some progress.
As both KB-Files (980295 and 2481614) sadly did not help with this at all and even setting the blockperiod to 1 (I saw that 0 doesn't seem to be supported here: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh831813.aspx) didn't make any difference I
have been working on how to reproduce the issue. So I wrote a tiny script disabling and enabling the client's network-port on and on (I have removed outputs and logging to keep it short):
$doAllTheTime = $true
$i = 0
$DomainName = (Get-WmiObject -Class Win32_ComputerSystem).domain
$NWAdapter = Get-WmiObject -Class Win32_NetworkAdapter | ? {$_.name -like "*gigabit*"}
while ($doAllTheTime -eq $true)
$i++
$NWAdapter.disable() | out-null; Start-Sleep -Seconds 10
$NWAdapter.enable() | out-null; Start-Sleep -Seconds 10
$ping = $null
$ping = test-connection $DomainName -count 1
if ($ping -eq $null)
"Error with connection"; return
So I kept it running and after a dozens of loops the issue reoccurred. I could see that it is the dot3svc-Service that does not response anymore by the RASCHAP-log given above. Restarting the service manually triggered a re-authentication that was then successful.
So I added the restart-service-cmdlet to my script in case that the error was detected and configured a Scheduled Task triggered by the event that a network-cable has been plugged in (has to be provided by the driver). Script and Scheduled Task
have then been deployed to our clients.
Even if this is no solution it definitely helps with a high rate of incidents -
but not entirely... so I am still looking for further steps to
solve this. Any ideas are highly appreciated.
Thank you very much for your support!!! Uhle

Apple wired keyboard cause unwanted wakeup from sleep

Hi,
when I want to sleep (either by keyboard or power button) Mac mini, the computer enters sleep.
Unfortunately, after a few seconds, the computer wakes up without interference.
I've tried all the recommended procedures to fix problems with sleeping/waking without success.
When I disconnect the keyboard and press power button, the computer falls to sleep and remains in sleep.
When I connect this keyboard to another Mac Mini, this is also self-awakening.
Please, can anybody help me with this strange problem?
Thanks

========================================

As I noted above, computer goes to sleep by every way - power button, sleep timer, shortcut or menu.
But remains sleeping ONLY with keyboard unconnected.
Problematic keyboard worked well for many months until recently.
Same situation is on another Mac mini.
With another keyboard (from old PC) everything works fine (except hibernating shortcut, of course).

Crashes after wakeup from sleep - due to Flash?

Every time I wake up my iMac, Safari crashes. It won't even send a report. Deleting caches didn't help. I refuse to delete prefs, cookies etc. as well.
Anyone who can interpret the crash log? The culprit may be the new Flash plugin...
Thanks a lot!

Hi Peter
could you post the whole crash log? - esp the 'binary images' part.
You say the "new" flash plug-in ? which version do you have?
There's general advice on Safari -fixing in this thread
To temporarily disable Flash plug-ins - Try quitting Safari & moving the Flash files from /HD/Library/Internet Plug-ins/ to your desktop, then testing again. You can Quit safari/move them back again if no improvement.

Question about HP 2311xi - auto-switch source and delay wakeup from sleep

I recently purchased this monitor and noticed that when it wakes from sleep it will take about 5-10 seconds for it to wake whereas other monitors I've owned they have gone on immediately. I was just wondering if this is how this monitor is or if I have an issue with it.
Secondly, how is the auto-switch source suppose to work? I have my PC set to DVI and I have the default source set to my 360 through the HDMI connection. I would assume that when the 360 goes on it would go to the default source and switch over to the hdmi connection. However, my monitor does nothing. What does the auto-switch source actually do or is mine just defective?
Thanks in advance for any help on this monitor.
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Auto-switch source only works if there is no signal as it detects the port with a signal and auto switches to that port. However, the monitor has no way of knowing exactly which port the user wants when two signals are present.
Default port setting is what the monitor will look for first when being turned on and doesn't necessarily give that port override capabilities.
Taking 5-10 seconds can be normal. My third-party monitor at home generally takes about 5 seconds before displaying a signal, but this may have more to do with the HDMI connection (I haven't tested this with the VGA port). I don't believe this is a cause for concern.
Let me know if I answered your questions.

Erratic wakeup from sleep after 10.9.2 - 2012 Mac Pro

I completed the most recent OS X upgrade yesterday on my 2012 Mac Pro and now "wake from sleep" seems to work erratically (much more often not waking up and requiring a reboot). Occasionally a quick push of the front panel power button will produce results. Nothing else has been changed on the computer so I can only believe that this upgrade has been the cause.
Anyone else having this problem? Suggestions or things to reset/check?
