Macbook insomnia (doesn't sleep)

So.
My MacBook doesn't go to sleep anymore if I close the lid. Wel, not automatically, I can just put it to sleep, close the lid; and then it'll stay in sleep mode; but it still is annoying and just want it to sleep if I close the lid.
Any suggestions? tricks or tips or whatever? ("bringing it in" is an answer I could come up with myself)
Oh; and besides that it is getting far too hot. Can't get to play any simple flash-movies (youtube); without the fans making a lot of noise and the mac getting really hot. Or just using iTunes for half an hour.

with a noise so loud that it oversounds the sound of the speakers...
Considering the volume of the Macbook speakers that's not saying much ...aside from possibly trying an SMC reset I can't suggest anything more than bringing it in - at least to compare the fan activity with other Macbooks running the same type of files. They could also test the lid/cover magnets as well.
Their response may be to do a fresh install ...so make sure you have everything backed-up before.

  • MacBook (Lion) doesn't sleep even after closing lid

    Is anyone experiencing this as well? I have encounter the same problem a few times now. My macbook would have it's fan keep running even when the lid is closed. Isn't it strange? I haven't had this problem before in Snow Leopard.
    In snow leopard, even when the fan is running at 6200rpm, as soon as I close the lid. My macbook would be quiet almost instantly. However, with Lion my fan and processor would keep running. Anyone else? any idea?

    Hey Pascale,
    I am not sure if you have fixed this but I had the same problem and found some advice from another website...
    http://www.adeepbite.com/lion-seems-having-insomnia-it-doesnt-sleep-easily/
    All I had to do was turn off my "internet sharing"  (System preferences -> Sharing -> Internet Sharing (uncheck) )
    and presto, no more closing lid problems. 
    If your internet sharing wasn't the issue then I don' t know what is.
    Cheers

  • MacBook dies doesn't "sleep" when battery is low.

    When my battery is drained to about 10% of power, my MacBook "dies" instead of going into "sleep mode". When I plug it back in, I have to reboot.
    Somebody suggested to reset the SMC <http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303319> ,and to calibrate the battery. I tried but I don't think it worked.
    After resetting the SMC I tried to calibrate, but when the MacBook was still showing 10% of power it shut down. After a few minutes, without plugging the adapter, I turned it on again and it lasted 3 more minutes and shut down again.
    Then I just left it off for five hours and I'm charging it now.
    Any ideas on how to solve this problem? Is this a battery problem, or a computer problem?

  • My Macbook Pro doesn't sleep anymore :(

    So I use my Macbook Pro sort of as a desktop connected to my hdtv since I've had my Macbook Air for traveling.
    Over the past 6 months or so, it has remained closed, connected to my hdtv and connected to wireless keyboard/mouse.
    Anytime I needed it, I would tap on the keyboard and it would wake up (lid still closed) and I would do my thing on the tv and put it back to sleep via the menu way. So on and so forth.
    Now, when I try to put it to sleep, the tv just goes black and the Macbook Pro just sits there and runs without actually sleeping. TV totally black, fans are purring, indication light in the front not dimming.
    Everything is up to date.
    Any idea how to fix this? God I hope its okay because I could not afford Applecare. :-/

    Okay, it was a software issue. They did a "Install from Archive" restore which basically reinstalls Mac OS X without removing applications and settings and it worked fine. Fortunately it was only software, there's a "sleep file" that can become corrupted and make sleeping act funky.
    If you can't make it to an Apple store, you can reinstall Mac OS X and restore from Time Machine as another option.
    Another possibility would have been hardware. There's something on the logic board, I think he called it a "sleep circuit" or "sleep switch" that can become bad, which results in a logic board swap out which can cost like $700-$900 bucks.
    Phew!
    Thanks again guys.

  • MacBook insomnia; it doesn't sleep.

    My MacBook doesn't go to sleep, unless I press the power button and select Sleep.
    Neither in battery mode, nor in AC mode. I tried closing all the opened programs (QuickSilver, Safari, iTunes, iTerm), and put the time to 1 minute to make quick tests. In both AC and battery modes, the screen just goes blank, but the thing is still on (I move the mouse and it's there -- in sleep mode I have to press Space bar or something; I left it there for 7 hours with the blank screen, and the computer was still hot in the morning.... so no sleep).
    I run the extended hardware test, and it says everything is OK.
    I have had 2 sudden shutdowns this month (always with AC plugged in, computer cold, just turned in, and in 2 or 3 minutes it turns off).
    Any idea?

    Solution to No sleep after improper shutdown
    Re: MacBook insomnia; it doesn't sleep.
    (Use any and/or all of these steps at your own risk
    (Warning this will erase your osx volume !!!)
    Use only If you are very familiar with the Apple Disk
    Utility,
    I have a possible work around.
    This may resolve only the "insomnia" issue and, may
    forego the “manual reinstall” of all your
    applications, music, document, files, etc..
    (this process does take time, but you are making a
    valuable backup)
    This will not resolve any random powering off issue.
    ((BTW just reinstalling osx “with the erase first”
    option did also fix the insomnia issue on my MBP.
    Though I did spend a lot more time reinstalling all
    of my app, docs, and geting all the setting just
    right)) hopefully the following workaround will be at
    very least much more simple than a full reinstall
    from scratch.
    This work around requires an external backup
    hard-drive.
    Step 1: First, using Disk Utility Restore(meaning
    backup), backup your source "Macintosh" Volume, to an
    external hard-disk Volume (destination).
    (this, step 1, may take 2-hours+ for ~80GB of data,
    via FW400 speeds.)
    Step 2: Next, hold "option" while Booting, select
    external hard-drive Volume. (the external backup
    volume you created in step 1)
    (You should now have booted into your mac OSX
    external hard-disk backup volume.)
    Step 3: From your external macOS volume, use Disk
    Utility to erase your "Macintosh" Volume. (the one
    inside your Macbook pro ! ).
    Step 4: using Disk Utility Restore(now meaning
    restore), restore your external backup volume (from
    the external Hard-disk source) to destination
    internal "Macintosh" volume.
    (This, step 4, may take an additional 2-hours+ via
    FW400 speeds.)
    (Use all and/or any of these steps at your own risk
    Good luck.

    Solution to No sleep after improper shutdown Re: MacBook insomnia; it doesn't sleep.
    Re: the previous post.
    The insomnia issue is probably caused by an "improper shutdown/power loss".
    So this workaround will only be permanent, if you resolve the "random shutdown" issue.
    As I think the "random shutdown" issue may be causing the "insomnia" issue.
    After a "random shutdown" has occurred, causing "insomnia", the workaround will fix the insomnia. (the make this fix permanent though, the random shutdown must be addressed)
    Hope this helps clarify (which one created the other, the chicken vs. the egg)
    And gets you, at lease closer, to a full (no random shutdowns and no insomnia) solution.
    Take care

    The resolution available with the Apple Mini DisplayPort to VGA Adapter is 1920 x 1200. VGA displays that use higher refresh rates (such as 85 Hz) at resolutions of 1600 x 1200 or greater may not generate video properly until you lower the refresh rate.

    How do I select additional resolutions on my display?
    You can use the Display pane of System Preferences to specify how your display works. Not all options appear for all display models. By default the best resolution for your display will already be selected in System Preferences.
    To select a different resolution, use the Scaled option. Some additional resolutions may be available when you hold the Option button.

  • MacBook Pro doesn't go to sleep

    Hello,
    Since I installed Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard (clean install) my MacBook Pro never goes to sleep alone. If I select "Sleep" from the Apple menu or if I close down the monitor it goes normally to sleep but if I leave it on, it never goes to sleep (with Leopard I didn't have any problem).
    I tried to turn off WiFi and Bluetooth connection, checked the Power Setting options when MBP isn't attached to power supply but simply it stand up ever, just the monitor goes to sleep but not the mac.
    The only thing I can guess can be useful for understand the cause of the problem is my hard disk: I've changed it from the 120 GB original one with this one: http://www.wdc.com/en/products/products.asp?driveid=482 (model: WD3200BEKT).
    Can someone help me?
    Thanks and best regards

    Hi, My new Macbook pro (10.6.4, 13") has exactly problem with your Mac, whatever I do, it just doesn't sleep base on energy saver (as you said" if leave it on, the mac never goes to sleep, just the display goes to sleep), but if i select sleep from the apple menu or close down the lid, both of the Mac or display goest to sleep.
    I called Apple expert, but the problem is still here. I just bought it a few days ago, so I can apply a DOA replacement for a new Mac, but I don't know if I should do that, also i am worrying the new mac will still has the same or other problem!
    Anyway, i am going to talk to Apple expert today again about this! if you have any news keep me inform,So do I!
    I appreciate!

    PLEASE HELP!!! I NEED HELP

    Please test after taking each of the following steps. Back up all data before you begin.
    Step 1
    Quit the Contacts or Address Book application if it's running.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:
    ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.AddressBookSourceSync
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
              Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
    from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item selected. Move the selected item to the Trash.
    Repeat with this line:
    ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.AddressBook
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
              Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
    Step 2
    If you use iCloud, uncheck the box marked Contacts in the iCloud preference pane. Press return to confirm, or click Keep on Mac in the dialog that opens.
    If you synchronize contacts with any other network service, disable that synchronization in the Internet Accounts  preference pane.
    Step 3
    From the list of groups on the left side of the Contacts window, select All On My Mac. If that group doesn't exist or is empty, skip this step. Otherwise, from the menu bar, select
              File ▹ Export... ▹ Contacts Archive...
    Save the exported archive to the Desktop.
    Step 4
    Quit Contacts. Reveal the following item in the Finder as you did in Step 1:
    ~/Library/Application Support/AddressBook
    If you know when the problem started, and you can restore that folder from an earlier backup without losing any contacts, do so and test. Otherwise, move the folder to the Desktop, leaving the window open for now.
    Step 5
    Launch Contacts. Your contacts and groups will be gone. If you took Step 3, then double-click the file you created in that step and confirm that you want to import from it. Your contacts and groups will reappear.
    Step 6
    If you took Step 2, reverse it. Test. If the issue is resolved, delete the AddressBook folder and the archive file on the Desktop and close the open folder window.
    Otherwise, quit Contacts again and put the AddressBook folder back where it was, overwriting the newer one that will have been created in its place.
    Step 7
    Go back to Step 3, but this time choose Export vCard... from the Export menu. Continue as in Steps 4-6. All contacts should be preserved, but you may lose some metadata such as group membership.

  • My macbook pro doesn't wake up after sleep

    my macbook pro doesn't wake up after sleep

    I'm having the same issue. I've had my logic board replaced twice now, which I did last week and then Monday I had to take it to a Genius Bar again because my hard drive cable was malfunctioning. I don't know why it's happening but I'm really starting to get frustrated with my machine. I bought my MacBook Pro brand new last year in September and ever since I've dropped it in November, it's been really glitchy. After I dropped it, I had to replace my Logic board, graphics card, and hard drive and they covered it.

  • MacBook doesn't sleep since Mountain Lion

    Since I installed Mountain Lion on my MacBook (alu, late '08), it doesn't sleep anymore. When I enter sleep mode, it looks like it's entering sleep mode, but it doesn't fall asleep properly. The screen turns off, but the fans keep blowing and it won't go "off".
    Have tried SMC & PRAM rest, no luck. Also tried deleting some dock files (read that in another discussion), no luck either.
    Any ideas?

  • Macbook pro goes to sleep doesn't wake up...noticed the light on the power cord not on...

    My MacBook Pro goes to sleep and this time will not wake up. I hold the start button down for count of 10 without results. I noticed the light on my power cord isn't on...and I've jiggled the cord and plugged it into a working outlet. Help!

    All Apple laptops will go to sleep when the battery gets low, during this sleep you will not be able to wake it up.  based on what you are saying, to me it sounds like the battery is low because your power supply failed.  I would recommend either barrowing power supply from a friend, or bring it to the apple store, that way you can test it with a good power supply, it that is the case, replace it.

  • Macbook Pro Randomly Enters Sleep Mode For A Few Seconds

    Hi All,
    My Macbook Pro has had this problem since a few months after I purchased it. While working or playing the laptop will randomly go into what seems like sleep mode. The screen turns off, I hear the hard drive stop and then a couple seconds later it starts back up on its own. Any Internet connection I had disconnects, but other than that it starts up as normal.
    The problem comes and goes and doesn't seem to be consistent with anything that I'm aware of. Sometimes it happens once, then doesn't happen for days. Often it will happen several times in a row over the course of an hour.
    I've called support and brought the laptop to the genius bar where they ran several tests, but were unable to figure anything out. Research online has shown similar issues with other users, but no solutions. The laptop is not stacked on anything magnetic, the issue occurs when running hot or cold and whether I'm on battery power or plugged in.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated. If this can't be resolved is it something I can bring to apple and get a replacement under my year warranty?

  • MacBook Pro won't sleep with external monitor

    Hello,
    have a problem. I'm using external monitor with my MacBook Pro. If I close the lid, I see all windows on external monitor and Yosemite won't sleep. Can you help me please? My external monitor is Samsung 21.5" and I'm connecting it to MacBook Pro via DVI.
    Thank you

    Hey Renecek,
    My first thought was, "Hey, you are using closed-clamshell mode".
    How to use your Mac notebook computer in closed-clamshell (display closed) mode with an external display - Apple Support
    But then I realized, wait, you want it to sleep.
    For that, check out the suggestions in these articles.

    Take care,
