Macbook pro (early 2011) takes multiple attempts to wake from sleep and turn on.

I've had a MPB since April 2011 and since I've gotten it I've had this problem. When I want to use the computer, whether from deep sleep or simply turning it on, it sounds like its beginning to turn on but then it makes this clicking noise and stops.
My computer does not wake up from sleep with the press of buttons like it should. I have to press the power button to get any sort of reaction, and as I press the power button multiple times the problem occurs.
It does this multiple times in one setting, varying from once all the way to 10 or 15 times until it actually turns on. The thing is, it ALWAYS turns on eventually. I took it to the Apple Store while it was still in warranty (several times, actually) and they weren't able to find anything wrong. Honestly they thought I was making it up even when I had several people with me agree that they saw the problem happen. I left it at the Apple Store for repair and they did tests, reinstalled the software, but once I took it home the problem still remained. Because they didn't find anything and didn't seem adamant that anything was wrong, I just felt frustrated and left it, since the computer still functions fine otherwise. Now my computer is out of warranty but the problem is becoming more of a pest now that I'm in college. I do everything on it and I'm worried that one day it won't turn on. I took it to the Apple Store again and they told me they couldn't do anything for me now since warranty is out, despite the fact I took it to them expecting good service while it was in warranty and they did absolutely nothing!
I just need some answers. Whether a self fix or from Apple. I feel that Apple should help me solve this problem since they failed to do so before. I'm only 6 months out of warranty, too.
My computer has all the latest firmware and software, running on Lion Mac OS X 10.7.5

BUMP.
I actually showed this to Apple geniuses when I took my computer to the apple store, and it's still here. In console it says:
kernel[0]: Previous Shutdown Cause: -128
I don't know if that's related or not, but maybe helps?

  • Connecting my MacBook Pro (early 2011) to my Sony LCD TV (KDL-46XBR6) and listening to Multichannel surround sound.

    Dear all,
    I am attempting to connect my MacBook Pro (early 2011) to my Sony LCD TV (KDL-46XBR6) via the Mini DisplayPort to HDMI. I have successfully connected the two devices and can select "SONY TV XV" in the sound preference pane. I can see and hear what I'd like, however, I can only monitor the sound in 2 channel stereo. I have my TV connected to a Sony 7.1 audio receiver via an optical cable and can monitor 7.1 sound via other sources (Blu-ray, broadcast, etc). When I go into the Audio Midi Setup utility, I am unable to configure my speakers to be anything but 2 channel stereo. I am given the options for "2ch-16bit", "2ch-20bit", "2ch-24bit" and "Encoded Digital Audio". When I select "Encoded Digital Audio", my output automatically changes to Built-in Output. Has anyone been able to successfully resolve this issue? Thanks for all your help!
    Gregg

    You should also ask this in the MacBook Pro forum. This is the forum for the 13” white and black plastic MacBooks that were discontinued in 2010. You should also post this question there to increase your chances of getting an answer.

  • MacBook Pro 10.5.2 Screen does not wake from sleep

    This is probably the 80th time this issue has been posted.
    I am hoping someone at Apple or otherwise can give me an answer on it.
    What is the deal with this? Why can't my Macbook wake properly?
    I thought this stuff was supposed to be "Reliable" and "easy to use" ?
    I love OS X, but this wake from sleep issue is making me second guess my decision to switch.

    I've been experiencing this issue 2-3 times a day, and it bugs the **** out of me.
    I've followed the steps on the link provided.
    I note there is no noise or visual indicator to suggest the reset took place (possibly because tehre is no power source there?) but I'll report back if I have any further hangs on the screen when waking up.
    Cheers!

  • Mac takes 5 mins to wake from sleep and I have bizarre log files

    Can anyone help me figure out what is plaguing my mac. Is it haunted?
    My Macbook Pro (mid 2012 ish) is behaving very strangely. When I wake it up from sleep, it takes five minutes before it is responsive and lets me log in. The progress bar at the bottom rapidly moves to the last bar, then freezes for five minutes.
    When I look at the logs, there is bizarre behavior. I get pages and pages of these kind of events:
    Jan 28 12:13:18 Matts-MacBook-Pro-2 kernel[0]: [0x8076547000, 0x1000]

    Like, 20 or thirty pages.
    My Mac wakes itself up in the middle of the night for no apparent reason, performs some operations, and then logs thousands of the kernel events like the one above.
    My Mac also seems to be trying to connect to strange DNS addresses.
    I uploaded a copy of the bizarre log files here.
    https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/59141003/Bizarre%20logs.rtf
    It is malware? Is it a configuration issue? Is there a ghost in the machine?
    Appreciate anyone's help with this.
    Thanks much,
    Matt

    Unfortunately that didn't fix it. I removed the network drive (and everything else) from login items and there are still problems. The Macbook only takes 2-3 minutes to wake, but this is still a long time. (Strangely, immediately after I removed the login item, the Mac woke up in ~30 seconds). There is also some sort of kernel that is occurring thousands of times while the Mac is sleeping. No idea why.
    Any ideas? Log files below:

  • My MacBook Pro (Early 2011) keeps freezing, the fan becomes extremely loud and the laptop gets very hot, what can I do?

    Hi there,
    I would be grateful if any one could help me. I purchased my MacBook Pro  13 Inch in August 2011, it was the "Early 2011" version, which was shipped with Lion (I have now upgraded it to Mountain Lion last year).
    Up until a few weeks ago, it was running fine. But recently my MacBook keeps freezing (A circular rainbow appears on the cursor), slowing down, the fan gets very loud and I often have to restart the whole machine. This usually happens when I'm running programs such as Safari, Preview or Microsoft Word
    I only use my MacBook for university work so I only have Microsoft Office and iWork installed, nothing else. I've only used 19gb out of the 320gb available. I've also reseted my MacBook to its factory settings but that hasn't fixed the problem.
    I've checked my AppleCare status and it says:
    Repairs and Service Coverage: Active
    Your product is covered for eligible hardware repairs and service under a custom agreement.
    For more information about your coverage, please contact us.
    Estimated Expiration Date: 24 August 2014
    I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions to how I can resolve these problems, as it is stopping me from doing my work?
    Many thanks.

    Call Apple and make a appointment, backup your use data off the machine to a external drive.
    Don't bother with TimeMachine if it asks, too long and likley be corrupted and unable to restore, just drag and drop your Users folder to the external drive.

  • Connecting my MacBook Pro (early 2011) to my Sony LCD TV (KDL-46XBR6) via the Mini DisplayPort and listening to Multichannel surround sound.

    Dear all,
    I am attempting to connect my MacBook Pro (early 2011) to my Sony LCD TV (KDL-46XBR6) via the Mini DisplayPort to HDMI. I have successfully connected the two devices and can select "SONY TV XV" in the sound preference pane. I can see and hear what I'd like, however, I can only monitor the sound in 2 channel stereo. I have my TV connected to a Sony 7.1 audio receiver via an optical cable and can monitor 7.1 sound via other sources (Blu-ray, broadcast, etc). When I go into the Audio Midi Setup utility, I am unable to configure my speakers to be anything but 2 channel stereo. I am given the options for "2ch-16bit", "2ch-20bit", "2ch-24bit" and "Encoded Digital Audio". When I select "Encoded Digital Audio", my output automatically changes to Built-in Output. Has anyone been able to successfully resolve this issue? Thanks for all your help!

    I have tested it with the Moshi (http://store.apple.com/us/product/H1824ZM/A/moshi-mini-dp-to-hdmi-adapter-with-a udio-support) and Belkin (http://store.apple.com/us/product/HA342ZM/A/belkin-mini-displayport-to-hdmi-adap ter) adapters, both purchased from the Apple Store with no such luck. Have you or anyone else had success with any other third-party adapters?

  • 15in Macbook Pro early 2011 won't shutoff nor can I run disk utilities. Any suggestions?

    Situation:
    I have a 15in Macbook Pro early 2011 that I can not shutdown nor can I run disk utility to repair any issues. I recently had it serviced to replace a failing hard drive.
    Known issues:
         - Disk Utility: Will not respond. A couple days ago I had to run it to repair some damage to harddrive. When I try to open it, it is frozen with the rainbow ball.
         - Shutdown: I can not shutdown or restart my computer as it freezes during shutdown with grey screen. I can manually turn it on and off by holding down the      power button.
         - Disc Drive: This may not be related but I can not eject DVD in the disc drive.
    Any thoughts or advice would be greatly appreciated. I currently live overseas (for school) so just going to an Apple store is not really a realistic option for me at this time. Thanks

    Take it back to where you had it serviced, there is usually a ~90 day guarantee
    you can force a shutdown by holding the power button for longer than usual.

  • Macbook Pro Early 2011 having issues

    Hi all
    I hope this message finds you all well.
    Sorry that my first post is one begging for help but with a gig 3 weeks away i am bricking it due to the fact that my macbook pro, early 2011 has been playing up of late. It first started having problems when the L shift key became stuck, not physically but after some investigation on here I used Karabiner software to ascertain the issue and disable the key.  However since then the computer hasnt run properly at all.
    I have tried disk repair and so forth, also run Avast virus check but the issues still persist.
    I run Traktor DJ software and for no reason the macbook has started glitching, spinning wheel of doom comes and everything slows down. I can't run simultaneous programmes and certainly can't run my Arkaos Grand VJ software at all which isn't good when we have a big gig in 3 weeks time.
    I have run the Etrecheck as shown below but I dont know what to make of it?!
    Can someone please give me some advice as I am stuck and cant rely on the laptop for the gig which will throw a real spanner in the works.
    Problem description:
    Runs slow, spinning wheel frequently, cannot run arkaos software, tractor software glitches regularly, L shift is stuck on (presently disabled using Karabiner software

    You  have Avast installed which could be causing some problems for your Mac's operation. Use the Avast uninstaller and get rid of it.
    Boot into Recovery mode by holding down the Command and R keys together and use Disk Utility there to Repair your hard drive and repair disk permissions.
    Hope that helps.
    As for the shift key, you should take the computer to the Apple Genius Bar and have them look at it.

  • Macbook pro (early 2011) won't boot after sleep. Black screen with chime

    I put my macbook pro early 2011 (Quad, 8 Gb RAM, 2 x SSD-disks, external 27" LED-screen) into sleep mode a couple of days ago. Everything was fine then.
    However, the morning after it wouldn't wake up - this is the bootup process:
    - Black screen
    - Chime
    - Still black screen, nothing happens.
    So I've tried resetting NVRAM, SMC etc - no luck. Even tried the "Powerbutton" + "S" + Enter but to no avail.So I immediately began dd:ing my SSD-disk before trying anything else, figured it might be some preboot-corruption of some sort since I'm running FileVault2 with full AES-encryption.
    Now, the problem (after some troubleshooting) doesn't seem to be disk-oriented. Remember the black screen? I've tried pulling the SATA-cables one by one on the motherboard of the Macbook pro and discovered that when I pulled the cable which reaches over the optical device (just above the SATA-cable for the optical device) then I get a white screen and I'm able to get as far as boot-option, or even disk repair (if I run my SSD-disk over USB and without any cables (three of them) attacked to the motherboard).
    So since nothing works when I have disks connected or that third cable (some kind of logic board bridge? Reaches through the screen over to the other side of the mother board).
    Also worth noting is that I was running out of free disk-space on my system disk. The disk is 250 Gb and free space was about 5-10 Gb (less than 5%). I also make the macbook pro dump contents of memory to disk (since my disk is encrypted it resides safely there).
    So, my fear is that Apple hasn't used A-grade controllers for the disk drives (I've had drive corruption before, a Crucial 6 GB/s drive trashed less than a week before a presentation) and doesn't handle "unexpected events" nor signal/noise ratio very well. Maybe free space on disk was less than the 8 Gb needed to dump RAM (shouldn't have needed the full 8 Gb though) and this caused some kind of panic overwrite which trashed the controller?
    Anyways, I've attached an image of the motherboard and I am wondering - what does the top cable which reaches over the optical drive do? Is it connected to the logic-board?

    Looks to me like a fatal error on the hard disk. IMHO, the only solution is to boot from an external device, reformat the hard drive, and restore from backup. If you don't have a backup, you're in trouble. Boot from the external device, try to mount the int'l drive, and, if successful, back up as much as possible. Also, try running Disk Utility—it may be possible to fix it while booted from a different device, thought I wouldn't bank on it. At any rate, make sure to run an AHT afterwards, to check for possible hardware issues with the drive.
    If the machine is still covered by AppleCare, take it to the store by all means. But they won't try to recover anything from the int'l drive, just check it, erase it if they don't find hardware issues, and re-install a fresh copy of the OS.
    That's why you should always have at least 1 up-to-date backup (2, with one kept off-site, is better).

  • Will a Macbook pro early 2011 installation disc work on a 2007 or 2008 Macbook pro 15

    My collegue's 2007 or 2008 Macbook pro 15 inch keeps getting stuck on the apple load up screen everytime he hits the power button. He doesnt know what version it is and I forgot to write down the model number of it(Ill update May 16 at 10am PST). I tried safe mode, it worked but after the loading bar gets close to 1/2 it freezes up. He can not find his installation disc that came with the computer. I have mine but its for Model # A1278 I think its snow leopard. Will the installation disc and application disc run successfully on my collegue's 2007 or 2008 Macbook pro?
    I apologize if there's a similar thread out there, I couldnt find one. -

    Will a MacBook Pro Early 2011 installation disc work on a 2007 or 2008 MacBook Pro 15?
    No it will not.
    Machine specific gray/back disks are for one model of Mac only as they only contain hardware drivers for that model, not previous ones.
    The 10.6.3 white Snow Leopard retail disk will work and it's available from Apple online for a small charge.
    My collegue's 2007 or 2008 Macbook pro 15 inch keeps getting stuck on the apple load up screen everytime he hits the power button.
    I tried safe mode, it worked but after the loading bar gets close to 1/2 it freezes up.
    This is indicative of a problem with the boot drive and the file structure retaining data on the drive.
    The progress bar progressing and stopping means the fsck drive repair is failing, likley the drive incurred head shock damage at that point.
    The boot drive itself is likely fine and the problem can be resolved but the disks are going to be required if it's running Snow Leopard.
    First get the disks, then attempt Disk Utility > Repair Disk and check the SMART status if the drive is still good.
    If there is no backup of data, get that off the machine using a external boot drive.
    To fix that problem of a bad sectors, unfortutly the entire drive will need to be Zero Erased (security option > zero all data) using Disk Uility while c or option/alt key booted from the 10.6 disks (using a wired or built in keyboard), it's the only way.
    This means all programs, files (remaining) and OS X will be removed in the process. You could replace the drive also.

  • Problem installing Yosemite on Macbook pro early 2011 10.7.5.

    When the installation on my Macbook Pro early 2011 OS X 10.7.5. goes to the page for installing Yosemite, nothing happens and after several minutes it says, "File system verify or repair failed" "Quit the installer to restart your compuer and try again"  I have restarted 4 times with the same result

  • Macbook pro early 2011 freezes, slow, weird fan noise + trackpad jumping around

    Hi guys, see the Etrecheck report below. My 13' Macbook pro (early 2011) has been very slow for the last few months, the fan makes a weird blowing noise (several fellow students have looked around what the **** that noise was when it started doing it), and recently started freezing when opening iTunes, OpenOffice and even Firefox.
    OH AND my trackpad has jumping around without me even touching it.
    What do you guys think? What's the problem, what can I do? IF I take it in how much do you think it might cost?

    I did as you suggested and it it's definitely not freezing as much, though a little bit still. Thanks though!
    Trackpad is also still jumping around, but I figured that might have to be replaced anyways.
    Anything else you recommend that I could / should do?

    Problem wit Macbook pro (early 2011). Logic Board. It is a problem from apple o i will have to buy a new logic board??????
    I know that people have a same problem ... What I can do????????

    Take it to an Apple Genius bar for a FREE diagnosis, they will then give you your options. Make an appointment first so as to not spend time waiting.

  • MacBook Pro (Early 2011) Freeze - How to collect system logs?

    Hello,
    My MacBook Pro (Early 2011) keep freezes at all times and hard reboot is only the available solution at. I'm having this problem from day one and spoke to AppleCare couple of times, but unable to resolve! Is there anyway to collect system logs from MacBook Pro running OS X Lion 10.7.2 to show it to Genius people at local Store?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

    How to run hardware diagnostics for an Intel Mac
    Boot from your original OS X Installer Disc One that came with your computer.  After the chime press and hold down the "D" key until the diagnostic screen appears.  Run the extended tests for a minimum of two or three hours.  If any error messages appear note them down as you will need to report them to the service tech when you take the computer in for repair.
    Some "common" error indicators:
    SNS - sensor error
    MEM - memory error
    HDD - hard disk drive error
    MOT - fan error

  • Permissions Issue on my MacBook Pro (early) 2011

    I am having the following issue on my MacBook Pro (early) 2011 -
    Verifying permissions for “Macintosh HD”
    ACL found but not expected on “private/var/db/launchd.db/com.apple.launchd”
    Permissions verification complete
    Repairing permissions for “Macintosh HD”
    ACL found but not expected on “private/var/db/launchd.db/com.apple.launchd”
    Repaired “private/var/db/launchd.db/com.apple.launchd”
    Permissions repair complete
    Verifying permissions for “Macintosh HD”
    ACL found but not expected on “private/var/db/launchd.db/com.apple.launchd”
    Permissions verification complete
    - As you can see I have Verified the Permissions and attempted to repair them; only to see the same issue pop up again.
    Does anyone know how to fix this situation?
    Thanks

    Ignore them; they don't represent problems, and running repair permissions more than once per incident is a waste of time.
