MBP does not come back after hybernation

Hello everyone,
I am enjoying my MBP except for one problem. It does not come back after it hybernates sometimes.
I hit a key, hear the superdrive do it's "thing" and then after much waiting (approximately over 10 minutes) no picture or video on the screen!
I can tell that it's still powered on because it's plugged in and when I hit the Caps Lock key it lights on and off.
The only way that I can get it out of this state is to hold down the power button, unplug the power cord, take the battery out, hold in the power button for 4 seconds, reinsert the battery and power back on.
I have to then cycle the power back off because the first time it does not come back but I just get the blank white boot screen and no 'apple'.
When I turn it back on the second time, it boots up.
Anyone else have a problem with this?
Thanks for listening!
Mark

Hello Gweedo!
Yeah I have the same issue and am up to date. Apparently this is a pretty huge problem with the Macbook Pro since the last Graphics update after updating to 10.5.2.
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1394449
I have been perusing through that topic and hopefully they will come up with a fix for this.
The only work-a-round that I have found (but haven't tested extensively yet) is to disconnect to the wireless, turn off blue tooth, disconnect my external monitor and then go into sleep mode. Then it always comes back. But if I leave it connected to the wireless, bluetooth, and external monitor - it's a crap shoot as to weather or not it will come back up.
This is pretty frustrating because half of using a laptop is being able to hybernate and sleep properly.
I even have the 'smartsleep' installed.
Thanks for commenting everybody!
Mark

    The wish list only works on apps you have to pay for. To get it tap the icon of the app you want to save. After it opens at the upper right corner is a box with a arrow. Tap that then tap add to wish list list in the box that opens.

  • Full Screen Does Not Come Back After Minimizing Firefox to the Taskbar.

    Full Screen Does Not Come Back After Minimizing Firefox to the Taskbar.
    I work in full screen almost exclusively ... the toolbar and the URL are still displayed while in full screen.
    Before this version (30.0), when I minimized Firefox to the taskbar so that I could go to the desktop or to Windows Explorer, when I finished what I was doing and re-selected Firefox it would go back to full screen. Now, it does not go back to full screen. I can still see the taskbar. I have to press [f11] two more times to get back to full screen.
    I have tried with and without addons enabled. Same behavior. I have reset Firefox ... same behavior.
    I'm using Firefox 30.0 and Windows 7 (64 bit).
    Thanks.

    Hi moose53,
    Just tested it with a Logitech keyboard and you are right, what you are describing is not expected behavior. I see you do not have any add ons, however does this also reproduce in Safe Mode? [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]]
    If yes, try a new profile [[Use the Profile Manager to create and remove Firefox profiles]]

  • HDMI does not come back after disconnect

    Hello Archers,
    this one is bugging me for a while now, perhaps someone has an idea.
    I have a headless ARCH home server that mainly has the following purposes:
    1. being a 24/7 file/backup/ssh server for family and friends
    2. being an MPD server connected to my music system
    The setup may seem a bit exotic. The computer is connected to the music system via HDMI over an S/PDIF audio extractor to the music system. This is because the machine replaced a RaspberryPi that really had crappy analog audio output and my music system has an optical input and can perform the digital to analog conversion itself. I have not installed Pulse just alsa and jack2-dbus.
    aplay -l shows the following:
    **** Liste der Hardware-Geräte (PLAYBACK) ****
    Karte 0: PCH [HDA Intel PCH], Gerät 0: ALC887-VD Analog [ALC887-VD Analog]
    Sub-Geräte: 1/1
    Sub-Gerät #0: subdevice #0
    Karte 0: PCH [HDA Intel PCH], Gerät 3: HDMI 0 [HDMI 0]
    Sub-Geräte: 0/1
    Sub-Gerät #0: subdevice #0
    The Problem:
    Whenever I switch off the music system and later switch it back on, the HDMI-connection is lost and does not get reestablished. I tried various things but essentially only a reboot of the machine helps (which opposes purpose 1 of the machine). On the RaspberryPi I did not have that problem, probably due to the hdmi_force_hotplug=1 in /boot/config.txt.
    My Observations so far:
    The first problem that made the sound disappear was the screen blanker on the console after 10 minutes. This can be prevented with
    setterm --term linux --blank 0 >/dev/tty1 # You need write permission on /dev/tty1 for this to work!
    There are no appearant error or warning messages when using e.g. aplay or speaker-test, just no sound at all
    There are tipps in the forums/the internet sugesting to disable power management on the display involving xset and xrandr. However, I have no X running and the tools complain that they cannot find/open the display
    In /proc/asound/PCH/codec#2 I find the HDMI codec to show the following as long as it is connected after a reboot:

    I figured that the problem is probably related to powermanagement, so I experimented with powertop. This resulted in a reduced consumption of 1W when idle, which is nice but did not solve the original problem...
    The Questions
    Is there a way to completely reinit the HDMI subsystem just like on a reboot?
    Is there an option comparable to hdmi_force_hotplug=1 on the pi that forces the HDMI signal to stay up?
    Thank You for Your time!
    Best regards,
    Lars

    I can confirm what zofiel said. I have tested it by connecting a TV and HDMI reactivitated by switching from X to console. However, this option only works one time and requires X running in the first place, which I usually have not on a headless server, but it made me think: Obviousely the X server needs to activate the graphics in the first place. Then I came up with an idea for a really messy work around. I could try to remotely start X. Normally, this is not possible and you get:
    % startx
    /usr/lib/xorg-server/Xorg.wrap: Only console users are allowed to run the X server
    xinit: giving up
    xinit: unable to connect to X server: Connection refused
    xinit: server error
    You can force it to work:
    sudo startx
    You get lots of error messages, but HDMI audio is back, even if one kills the X process afterwards with Ctrl+C (Audio stops, but resumes two seconds later). The downside is that starting X with sudo messes up permissions with the x related files in your home directory and you will have problems to use startx afterwards, so it is probably better to use su instead of sudo. If root does not have a properly configured .xinitrc file then one can also just execute the desktop environment directly e.g., for XFCE:
    su - root -c "startxfce4"
    Then kill it with Ctrl+C and you should have HDMI Audio working.
    So now I could pack this in a script followed by some command to kill it, but, well, it is an ugly workaround
    Is there really no better way?

  • Satellite A30 does not come back after hibernation.

    If I don't touch the keys for 10 mins or so my laptop goes into hibernation. It will normally come back when I touch a key or the touch pad but sometimes nothing I do can get it back. I have to turn it off and then back on again. I was wondering if anyone had any ideas?
    I looked at the power management and I can turn off all hibernation but I like it to hibernate when I close the lid so is there any way to make it so it ONLY hibernates when I close the lid and at no other time?

    HI Clare,
    In the Toshiba Power Management utility you should click on the 'advanced' tab and about half way down the resultant window you should see an option for the action to be taken when you close the lid of your SA30.
    Make sure that this is set to 'hibernate'. Then go to the power save modes and click on the 'details' tab and then the 'Power Save Mode' tab and make sure that the 'Hibernate' option is set to 'never'.
    With these settings your notebook should go into 'hibernate' when you close the lid but not at any other time.
    Note that you can set the notebook to hibernate when running on battery when the bttery capacity reaches a pre-set value of your own choosing.
    regards,

    If you continue and you lose everything, you will be able to download most of the content again for free as long as you use the same Apple ID. You can read this about downloading past purchases.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
    But before you continue and lose everything, try this.
    Eject your iPad, quit iTunes and restart your computer. Then launch iTunes and go to Edit>Preferences>Devices. See if you have mutliple iPad backups showing in there. If you have multiple backups, delete all but one of them. Also check the box at the bottom that turns off auto sync .... Prevent iPods ......Click OK and Then quit iTunes.
    Connect the iPad again and launch iTunes. Right click on your iPad name on the left side of iTunes and select backup. See if the iTunes will create a backup. If it does, after it finishes, click on the Summary Pane on the right and click on check for update. Try to update again.
    If it all goes OK, after you update the iOS you can back to Edit>Preferences>Devices and turn on atuo sync again - assuming that is how you want to sync.

    Hello PearldiamondMD,
    I was thinking of a few recommendations for you. I recommend our iPhone Troubleshooting Assistant found here http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/assistant/phone/#section_1. Start at section 1, if that doesnt fix it, then section 3, and if all else does not work, section 5. At section 3 I recommend closing ALL the apps.
    Here is section 1 to get you started.
    Restart iPhone
    To restart iPhone, first turn iPhone off by pressing and holding the Sleep/Wake button until a red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider and iPhone will turn off after a few moments.
    Next, turn iPhone on by pressing and holding the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
    Is iPhone not responding? To reset iPhone, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least 10 seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If your device does not turn on or displays a red battery icon, try recharging next.
    All the very best,
    Sterling

    Please help me, what is the syntax to get the dump wihtout hanging the session.

    Hi Priya,
    It is always a better practice to call a batch file using the host command instead of hardcoding the command inside form. Which would help you to modify the batch file for any changes, without re-compiling the forms.
    In this case, create a batch script, which would set the ORACLE_HOME etc (to make sure the exp command is recognized, you need to add the DB ORACLE_HOME/bin to the PATH), and then call the command to export. You can also parameterize the batch script and pass the parameters from form, separated by space.

    Apple TV uses iTunes. The reason you can't rent through your ATV is because you can't rent movies through iTunes Canada. Sadly, as this is a user-to-user forum, no one here would know when or if rentals will come to Canada.
