MacBook Pro shuts down instead of sleeping

My MacBook Pro was asleep on battery power with a near-full charge.
I was able to wake it 45 minutes ago, use it, and put it back to sleep with no problem.
Then, just a few minutes ago, I opened the screen and the computer had shut down.
Here's the console log from the time of the event.
Any ideas?

Thanks.
Hardware test reports an error 4MOT/1/40000002: Left_Middle-Front
However, this behavior began only after upgrade to Leopard, and is sporadic.
Taking it in for evaluation Monday, but I was wondering if someone else has experienced this problem and there might be a fix out there.

MacBook pro shuts down instead of sleeping while connected to power adapter

Hi there,
I am currently facing a rather strange issue. My old MacBook pro (about 2 years old) shuts down instead of sleeping but only when it is connected to the power adapter. I mean it goes to sleep mode perfectly well when it works only with the battery. Is it a know issue ? I'm running 10.5.6 and this problem is quite new to me (happened the first time some weeks ago).
Thank you in advance for your answer.

You might try resetting the SMC and see if this helps:

MacBook Pro shuts down instead of sleep

My daughter's macbook pro is supposed to sleep when the lid is closed but it usually shuts off the hard drive instead. She has a 15", 2010 model with the latest software and updates. Any suggestions?

Yes, sorry....I wasn't very clear on that. It doesn't sleep with the lid closed but the display goes off. Open the lid and the display comes on and then goes off after about 5 seconds. Then, the display won't come back on and I hear the hard drive running. Holding down the power button is needed to shut down the hard drive so it can be restarted. The hard drive just won't go to sleep - but I'm checking some other threads that say empty the printing que and uncheck "wake to LAN" in system preferences. I'll update if that works.

Macbook Pro shuts down when i sleep it

I've had some recent issues with my 2012 Macbook Pro. Each time I put my laptop on to sleep it shuts it's self down and when i log back in it sometimes makes me log in twice. When I log in the round symbol up top is not positioned directly over where I type my passcode. It's been really really frustrating ever since I updated the software to Yosemite. Very disappointing for me because I feel my Macbook isn't living up to the amazing Apple standards. If anyone knows how to fix these what I called glitches I would be very, very happy. Thanks

I'm running 10.7 as well. I had the same situation occur to me: I had put my MBP to sleep. The next day, I opened it up to find that it had shutdown overnight. Had to plug in the power adapter and push the "on" button to start-up machine. Strangely enough, the battery had 75%+ charge when it shutdown during sleep.

Mac Pro shuts down instead of sleeps.

I run a 2008 Mac with OSX10.5.8, with 2GB memory and 2x2.8Ghz Quad core processors
It works great! however recently it has started acting strangely. What i mean is it normally goes into sleep mode after 15 mins of inactivity or so.
However recently it sometimes seems to shut down after a period of inactivity .... Is there a setting which has somehow been changed or is it the signs of a more serious issue?
Any help appreciated!

Hopefully post stll being checked. I have just started to have the same issue with my Mac Pro 2008. It seems to be shutting down and starting fine but the last few times I put it to Sleep, it will eventully shut down on its own. Restarts fine with no message of on screen of improper shut down. I have: reset SMC, zapped Pram, checked Console. Will run Disk Utility this afternoon.
I can put it to Sleep and Wake it again with no problem. However, it seems after a longer time in Sleep mode is when I may have a problem
I shut down last night at 6 PM. When I Rebooted this morning (it had shut down) I can see Console notes a Sleep failure code and Improper shutdown detected but this is noted this morning when I am rebooting it.

Macbook Pro shutting off instead of sleeping

Hi my macbook pro is simply switching off when the battery is low rather than putting it self to sleep (and retaining contents of memory) its just clicking and dying instantly - is this a fault? My battery history as reported by coconut is 22 months old, 457 cycles, 79% capacity

I am having the same problem. This battery is the one that replaced the original when there was a recall (not all that long ago). According to coconut the capacity is only 13%.
Do you know if there's any way to salvage this or will I have to purchase a new one?

Macbook shuts down instead of sleeps

I have a 2ghz core duo macbook (modle No. A1181 (EMC 2092)) that I recently restored from a time machine backup. It was at 10.5.5 and now its at 10.6.8. So, right now I close the lid of the macbook and immediatly shuts down instead of sleeping. The previous macbook (the one I made the back up from) didn't have this problem and nor did this one before the upgrade. I have already tried resetting the smc and the pram. Anyone have any ideas?

Having never shutdown my laptop, I was guessing on its reaction to closing the lid. So, I shutdown my MBP and closed the lid. It did continue the shutdown, so there seems to be a problem with yours.
Sometimes, sleep and shutdown issues can be solved by resetting the SMC

My MacBook Pro shuts down whenever I put it to sleep then put it in my briefcase and transport it. Then I have to reboot it again. Why does this happen?

If it sounds like a RAM issue it could be one of the RAM chips has failed. You could try removing the RAM one at a time and see if it starts with one still installed.

MacBook Pro shuts down when i close the lid

Hey,
My MacBook Pro shuts down when i close the lid.
It started to do this one or two times, but now it is every time.
I have the latest battery update, so this should not be the issue here..
Any sugestions??
I have started to suspect the it might be some faulty conecctions or somthing..

If it's unable to go into the proper sleep state for some reason then it will do that.
Run /Utilities/Console and click 'All Messages' top left then close the lid, wait a minute then open it again - if it's shut down then reboot and open Console again and check the latest log lines looking for 'sleepimage' - it should give you an indication of what happened/didn't. If you're not sure what it all means post _just those lines_ here.

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 may 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.

Macbook pro shuts down unless i keep a key depressed. a pop up comes up saying " Are you sure you want to shut down your computer now? and gives you the option to choose restart | sleep | cancel | shutdown" but no matter what you select it still shuts off

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
This is just a wild guess on my part, but I have read that when a hard drive is beginning to fail, sometimes the optical drive will also malfunction. You can check out the physical health of your hard drive with the following utility:
http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/32454
You can download the demo and run it several times for free.
The instructions to restart your computer sounds like you might be experiencing a kernel panic. Here's a link to read about that:
http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/kernelpanics.html
It's also possible that the optical drive itself is going south. You could run the extended version of the Apple Hardware test to see if you get an error code that would indicate the optical drive.
Good luck!

My macbook pro shuts down OSX and all my programs when the lid is closed

Hi,
I am having a problem. My macbook pro shuts down OSX and all my programs when the lid is closed. I close the lid, and then I hear the shutdown music and then when I open it again it automatically restarts OSX and all my windows and programs are closed, any info gone.
This doesn't happen all the time. Just once a day or maybe twice a day. It seems like it happens basically when I have my computer just the way I want it, to keep an eye on things for the day.
I just recently switched to a mac and while somewhat savvy, I am not a programmer or techie, but it seems to me that when I shut the lid, it should do the same thing every time.
I have a intel core 2 duo 17 inch macbook pro with 2.33 processr and 2 gig ram, if that helps.
I am in alaska and there is no genius bar here and I am hoping to figure this out before I begin bugging our local independant mac store about this.
Thanks in advance,
Lylah
17 inch Macbook Pro Mac OS X (10.4.9) intel core 2 duo 2.33g. 2 gig ram

Ahhh, enlightenment!
That would make sense. What I usually do, after closing the lid, is to wait for the apple to turn off and then set it down on it's side leaning it against the side table. I will try to wait for it to indicate that it is fully asleep before I move it next time. Personally, I prefer my computer to NOT fall asleep at all, but I am told it is not an option. Apparently this function is hardware related accoring to my local mac shop. They tracked it down for me because I hated this feature when I first bought my computer and was trying some way around it.
The shutdown music I was refering to was that music the mac makes when shutting down, which doesnt usually occur when it goes to sleep, unless it is malfunctioning like this.
What does resetting the pmu do? (what is a pmu as well?)
Thank you very much.

My girlfriends Macbook Pro shuts down at the Apple Logo....

My girlfriends Macbook Pro shuts down at the Apple Logo....
1)I start the computer
2)It loads to the apple logo
3)A progress bar shows and loads about 5% then it dissappears and a few seconds later the macbook pro shuts down.
Any solutions?
If not, is there any way for me to reinstall the os without losing any files such as(any of her pictures, music, etc)?

Hi S,
See if you can run Repair Disk: Boot frominstall disc (insert disc > restart > immediately hold down c key andkeep holding it until you see “Preparing Installation”) > at first screenselect the language and click Continue > click on the Utilities Menu in themenu bar > open Disk Utility > select your HD in the panel on the leftside> click Repair Disk at bottom of main window. Run this at least twice,and keep running it until it says “appears ok” twice in a row. If that doesn’thappen, you may need a stronger utility such as DiskWarrior or if the directoryis damaged beyond repair, you may need to reinstall the OS, or you may have a damagedHD (repair utilities can only repair the directory structure, not the HDitself). When this is finished, quit Disk Utility, quit the installer, andrestart. Once booted normally, go to Applications > Utilities > DiskUtility and run Repair Permissions.

After installing Mac OS 10.5.8 my 2005 iMac G5 shuts down instead of sleeping

After install of OS 10.5.8 my iMac G5 - 2005 model, no Intel processor - whenever I choose sleep from the Apple menu or the time-out goes to sleep mode the computer shuts down instead of sleeping. Any insight would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Try using Disk Utility t repair your disk
   1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc that came with your computer, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
   2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
      Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
   3. Click the First Aid tab.
   4. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
   5. Select your Mac OS X volume.
   6. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk.
Then reboot and repair permissions from your internal drive.

Macbook Pro shutting down. Hardware error code 4MEM/62/40000000:0x7f537f90

Macbook Pro shutting down. Not the same action making it shutdown. Anywhere from being online to attaching a photo to an email to working in Word or Photoshop. Even after it's closed and not being used. I come back to it being shut off and saying it had to restart because of a problem. I ran the Hardware check and got the Hardware error code 4MEM/62/40000000:0x7f537f90.
I must say I am quite disappointed. I have used Mac for work but had a PC since day one, and I JUST got this Macbook Pro in Dec. I was delighted that Mac usually didn't have as many problems with viruses etc as PC. And now last couple days, constantly shutting itself down. The closest store to me is a few hrs away. I am in South Dakota, store is in Minnesota Any help would be appreciated.

Can you post a screen shot of About This Mac -> (More Info) -> System Report -> Memory and click on each DIMM and post the bottom right pane. You can also do the same without a screen shot using just text version using the following highlighted command in OSX Terminal. The output is also listed.
