    Any ideas how to solve?

    You can go into the OS X Server Forum and search for this issue. I think there are some discussiom threads that discuss it and you can read some of the solutions.
    I'm also running Mountain Lion 10.8.2 and OS X Server on a Mac Mini and it won't sleep if I have the File Sharing, VPN and Printer Sharing services running. To me, this is a good thing as a server is usually available to client machines 24x7.
    I did experiment and turned off each service one at a time to see which ones deny the sleep function and I found all 3 do.
    Here's an example from my server. The bold entries are the culprits for my server.

  • Display won't sleep after upgrade to 10.4.4

    I ran the update to 10.4.4 today and now my display will not sleep. Since then, I have:
    1. Ran the fix permissions utility
    2. Restarted, zapped p-ram
    3. Deleted the preference file in /Library/Preferences that houses the energy saver configuration, then reconfigured.
    Any other ideas? I did not change any of my settings after running the updater and this had been working fine since purchasing the computer.

    A number of sleep-related issues can appear after incremental Mac OSX updates, including the inability to properly go to sleep, problems waking from sleep, and having your display go to sleep without your Mac going to sleep. The most common culprit is Bluetooth. Try these tips to fix your sleep problems.
    WAKE UP
    In System Preferences>Bluetooth, uncheck Allow Bluetooth Devices To Wake This Computer. If you are using a Bluetooth mouse and keyboard, you'll have to wake your Mac by pressing the power button.
    FILE CORRUPTION
    Your Bluetooth preference file may be corrupt-you'll need to delete it. Turn Bluetooth off, then go to the /Users/user name/Library/Preferences folder. Look for a file called com.apple.Bluetooth.plist and trash it.The OS will create a new preference file when you enable Bluetooth again.
    ENERGY SAVER
    If you have issues with a Mac or display that goes to sleep at inappropriate times, you may have a problem with Energy Saver. Delete the following .plist files and restart:
    -/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.PowerManagement.plist
    -/Users/username/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systemuiserver.plist--(username is your name or System Administrators name).
    -/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.AutoWake.plist
    A restart is very important after deleting these plists. After a reboot your Mac will then generate new ones.
    In some cases, running MacOS X's cron tasks-maintenance that the OS performs automatically if you leave your Mac on 24 hours a day-can resolve many sleep problems. If you don't want to leave your Mac on, you can use MacJanitor, Yasu, or OnyX free at Versiontracker.com.
    Some, in these forums, have had luck fixing sleep issues downloading the Combo update from this site (yours may be corrupt), not Software Update, disconnect all firewire + USB devices except keyboard + mouse, Repair Permissions, re-install update, Repair Permissions again + try.
    Yours would be the 10.4.4 Combo update. Others reading, download the combo update that applies to you!
    Cheers!

  • Display won't sleep after being in suspend once.

    When rebooting the computer, the display sleeps after set interval and can manually be put to sleep using shift+ctrl+eject.
    However if the computer goes to sleep or I myself close the lid to make it sleep, the display won't sleep again.
    The display won't sleep after set interval in power settings and when I press shift+ctrl+eject the keyboard backlit turns off but the screen stays on.
    The only way to make it sleep is to close the lid.
    I have tried resetting SMC and NVRAM but to no avail.
    I have the first generation aluminium macbook.
    Does anyone else have this problem?
    I have had this problem both in 10.6 and 10.8

  • HT6150 Single press of Power Button does not put my MacBook Pro to sleep after this update! Do I need to change anything in the settings? Any help please? Thank you!

    The title says it all! After installing the new Mavericks update, I cannot put my MacBook Pro to sleep after a single press of the Power Button like before. Does it have something to do with this update or my MacBook Pro? Or do I have to change something in Settings?
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Send your opinion to Apple.
    But remember that there are others.
    A moment is a medieval unit of time equal to 1.5 minutes or 1/40 of an hour. This reckoning is derived from the work of Bartholomeus Anglicus, writing in 1240 that each hour was divided into four points, each point into ten moments, each moment into twelve ounces, and each ounce into 47 atoms.
    In modern English it usually refers to "a short period of time",[2] the exact length remaining ambiguous.

  • ICloud email won't work after upgrade

    iCloud email won't work after upgrade to Mountain Lion.  Says pop 3 server is timing out. Solutions?

    I'm sorry, as I keep saying... in MAIL I get the message that it cannot cannot to server!? Did you read the initial problem at all! I know exactly where mail is, although, the diagram was wonderful.
    My problem is TWO FOLD.
    The MAIL app doesn't work with iCloud but does work with my POP3 email for my office.
    Second problem is the iCloud on Safari doesn't work as I get the error message as the screenshot above.
    There is NO reason why the @me.com email shouldn't work through the iCloud site, as you can see, there is a also a Mail icon.

  • Macbook Pro won't sleep after updating to 10.4.11

    Hi,
    I just updated to 10.4.11 reluctantly from 10.4.9 as whenever I do update I always have issues...I basically just went to software update last week and updated to everything I could. I've just been reading the forums and noted that updating is not always that easy...
    Well basically my computer won't sleep if the lid is left open, this is IMMENSELY annoying since I often leave my desk to work on drawings, and I don't want energy being wasted like it is at the minute. Call me picky but I just want my computer to work.
    I've reseted the PRAM, (option, alt, p and r), closed all applications, etc, but no luck...
    Its a 2.2ghz MacBook pro, 2GB. Thank you in advance
    Neal

    The important thing for the future imho, is to always Repair Permissions before & after any update... seems to ward off most of these problems. Of course that is only good if the disk is Verified once in awhile.
    Using Disk Utility in Mac OS X 10.4.3 or later to verify or repair disks...
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302672
    About Disk Utility's Repair Disk Permissions feature...
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=25751
    In fact I'd start with those 2 now, if that doesn't help you may need to reapply some updates by getting them directly from apple>downloads.

  • MacBook Pro spontaneously wakes from sleep after upgrading to Leopard?

    For some reason, after I upgraded to Leopard, then whenever I put my MacBook Pro to sleep, it spontaneously wakes up after some time (can be from a few minutes to an hour or two.) I don't know why this is happening, but I know for sure that it's related to Leopard since I put my laptop to sleep every night (it's in my bedroom) and after upgrading to Leopard, it started to just wake up a short while after putting it to sleep.
    At first I thought it could be Time Machine, so I disconnected all my external drives, but that didn't seem to work.
    Does anyone know why this is happening?
    Thanks in advance!

    I have the same issue. Installed Leopard last night on my first-gen 1.83 MacBook. The next morning the Mac was a little slow in wanting to wake up. After that it stalled on transferring a large file from my G5 and I had to issue a reboot command via the shell to get it out of that. A few minutes later the computer locked up when trying to apple > tab through the application.
    I put it to sleep after restarting the Mac from that freeze. A while later while walking out of the house I happened to glance at the Macbook and saw the apple glowing while the lid was shut and then it went back to sleep.
    Tonight I put the Macbook to sleep on the way out to dinner. I noted that I had 84% of my battery left. A few hours later when I got home the MB was warm, the apple was glowing and I had 9% of my battery left.
    Looks like there is some work to be done asap for 10.5.1

  • Macbook Pro 10.6.8 will not turn off, restart, or even sleep after upgrading to OS X Mavericks

    It was working fine for the first 4 days until now, the computer won't turn off, won't restart, and won't sleep. When click on those button, the computer has no response. Also the iMessage App appears to not working as well. I tried forced turn off by holding the power button, but then it takes about 1 to turn back on. And now after it is on ago, it won't turn off again. And the Imssage is not working again. Other apps seems works just fine. Any suggestion?

  • Macbook Pro won't sleep after installing Lion

    Hi,
    I have just installed Mac OSX Lion last night. Everything worked out fine until I realized that everytime I close the Lid or Press Sleep from the Apple menu, it will not actually Sleep. After I open up the lid, I actually have to press the brightness of the light for the light to comes up. Or else its just going to be blank/black. During I close the lid, I could actually see that the light isn't actually breathing and I wonder how do I fix this? I have tried resetting the PRAM though.

    I have the same issue with my MacBook.  I have it in a docking station hooked to an external monitor and after upgrading to Lion it will not go to sleep.  I can click the sleep button from the Apple menue, from the start menue where the password is entered, or even set up sleep hot corners and nothing works.  The only thing that worked for me was to take my computer out of the dock then restart.  Once I restarted I was able to put the computer to sleep, but only as long as it was no longer connected to the dock.  As soon as Lion recognizes there is an external monitor connected to my MacBook it prevents the sleep function.  I understand why they did this, because some people had issues with their computers going to sleep while plugged into an external monitor, but I'm not sure their solution is any better because they have now created several unnecessary steps for many people who use external monitors.  I hope Apple addresses this issue and comes up with a patch of some sort to give users the option to have it set up one way or another.  I'm also pretty ****** that they got rid of Front Row.
