No Airport After Waking Up From Sleep? - Snow Leopard

Hello:
After Leopard Upgrade a strange thing has been happening to my MBP. After I close the lid and computer sleeps for a couple of minutes, if i reopen the lid and MBP wakes up, No Wifi. It looks like the airport icon con bar is looking for network, but it never finds My WPA2 network, nor reconnects automatically.
At first i had to restart the MBP. But after a couple of restarts I found out that if I turn off Airport and Turn it on after a couple of seconds the Airport does reconnects to my Linksys Wireless.
Can Anyone tell me how to Solve That? Its Annoying, if computer goes to sleeps for any reason... no Wifi...
Thanks,
Stejimenez

That Did The Trick...
Putting Airport Service First, and the putting My Network First on the list.
Airport Service WAS NOT the first. That Was Bluetooth.
Computer Sleept and Woke Up... And Voila... Network in a Second.
!!! Thanks Guys !!!

Hello, I have a macbook pro late 2011 15 inch with 4 gb ram. My macbook runs extremely slow when logging in after waking up from sleep, locking up and I am unable to use the keyboard. Is there a fix?

My macbook runs extremely slow when logging in after waking up from sleep, locking up and I am unable to use the keyboard. Furthermore, when just using safari to watch streaming television, my computer gets really slow, and locks up, and the dock appears blank and I sit here frustrated. Anytime i wake up my computer, my keys don't respond and I've waited at most 3 minutes untill i can type in my password. Even sometimes when i type in my password and hit enter, it takes forever to open up my mac. I have barely used any storage in my macbook, since i only use it for college, and I have run clamscan wiht no viruses showing... Any ideas?

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output andWi-Fi on certain iMacs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

Ethernet interface disappears after waking up from sleep

Hi guys,
I've been trying to debug a networking problem without any luck and I think it's about time I ask the forum for help.
My ethernet interface no longer works after I wake up my computer from sleep. I have no idea why.
Before sleep:
# ls /sys/class/net
lo wlp2s0 enp3s0f2
After waking up from sleep,
ls /sys/class/net
lo wlp2s0
Here are the list of services I have running.

Furthermore, plugging in the ethernet cord after the computer has started doesn't connect to the internet, even when I have the ifplugd service running. I am forced to run:
sudo ip link set enp3s0f2 up
sudo dhcpcd enp3s0f2
However, I can't run these commands after the laptop wakes up from sleep since it no longer sees the ethernet interface.
I am thoroughly confused. Please help me.

It seems to be fixed after the kernel update. On an related note, I've switched from using dhcpcd to netctl. I've enabled netctl to automatically connect to the network using:
# systemctl enable [email protected]
# systemctl enable [email protected]
So when I check for the status of the ethernet profile, I get told that's it's inactive.
#netctl status ethernet-dhcp
netctl@ethernet\x2ddhcp.service - Networking for netctl profile ethernet-dhcp
Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/[email protected]; static)
Active: inactive (dead)
Docs: man:netctl.profile(5)
But I turned off the wireless, so I must be connected to the ethernet, So how do I know which profile I'm connected to?

W510 eSATA/USB2.0 combo port does not respond after waking up from sleep mode

Has anyone tried to connect external DVD/CD player or burner to the eSATA/USB combo port and experienced very slow system performance after waking up from sleep mode? It might takes minutes to launch an application program that usually takes just few seconds. My W510 can not even restart. It will just stop at the Thinkpad logo if I tried to restart after waking up from sleep.
The funny thing is if I moved the external DVD/CD player to the USB2.0 port in the back, everything went back to normal. I don't know if this has anything to do with the fact that the combo port has something to do with eSATA.
Thanks

It seems that this problem is unique to my system. I am hoping that one of the Mac Guru's will have at least a pointer in the right direction.
Thanks.

Lose connection to external USB hard drive after waking up from sleep

My Mac lost connection to the external USB hard drive after waking up from sleep. I can still see the folders in the hard drive in Finders, but when I double clip a folder no file within the folder is displayed. I have to reconnect the hard drive with iMac to read its contents.
May I ask how this happens and is there a solution?
I'm using Paragon NTFS for Mac OS X to read from and write to NTFS format of USB external hard drive.
Thanks!

... I un-ticked the "put hard disks to sleep when possible" option in the Energy Saver panel in the System Preferences, and it seems the problem is solved. will have to sleep and wake up my iMac to further verify if this is the solution ...
Alternative advices are always greatly appreciated!

Compaq C700 - CPU fan not running after waking up from Sleep mode

Hi guys,
Waking up from Sleep mode does not start the CPU fan.
Kernel: 2.6.32-ARCH
KDE : 4.4
Let me know what other details you need.

I was having the same problem after installing mountain lion.
What i did was in Finder went to /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/ and deleted all the networking plists (refer screen shot). Then restarted the Mac and in Network Preferences reconnected to my WLAN.
That solved the problem.

Hi,
I have almost the same problem with my T540p, except that there is no internet connection not only after waking up from the sleep mode, but also when starting windows and sometimes the internet connection will get suddenly lost during normal windows run.
I tried installing all kinds of drivers - latest from intel, latest from lenovo update (which is always different version from the one from intel), some older versions. Nothing helps.
Re-enabling the WiFi device like Aaziz1982 suggested, doesn't help.
Here is a more detailed description of my problem: http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/T400-T500-and-newer-T-series/T540p-WiFi-Connected-no-internet/m-p/177818...

Hi, Lately many times my MBP15 shuts down a few second after waking up from sleep mode. Any ideas why? I think it happens everytime I try to open safari right away...

I think it happens everytime I try to open safari right away, but I'm not sure. After shutting down it automatically restarts and gives me a message Ÿour computer had to shut down because of a problem, press any key to restart..." and when it comes on again it gives me an option to send an error report to apple.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Yeah your Mac is having a Kernel Panic and the option to Restart the system when that happens is checked. So the system Restarts Automatically. Uncheck that option. For some unknown reason it is located in the Energy Saver applet in System Preferences.
As to the ROOT cause it could be software or hardware problems. There should be a Kernel Panic report in the console logs.
But if you do a search of these forum you'll find many that are having these restarts waking from sleep. So it would seem to be a hardware problem.

After waking rMBP from sleep and typing password, rMBP goes back to sleep after a few seconds and won't wake for about 7-8 seconds.

Absolutely embarrassing. What is going on here? When will we see a fix?

This happens rarely but consistently! I't seems to happen about 5% of the time waking from sleep. It MAY be more prone to happen if I had been moving with it in my bag, but it can happen at any waking time after any duration of sleep.

Slow response time w/bluetooth after waking computer from sleep

     Hello everyone. I have an issues and here are the steps used to reproduce it as well as my specs and thoughts. I have taken this in to Apple retail to check, but the problem could not be re-produced (I think the computer as well as the bluetooth devices have to sleep for this to happen). By the way, does anyone know how long it take for the bluetooth Apple keyboard, mouse and trackpad take to auto-sleep after in-activity?
Hardware:
Macbook 6,1
2.26 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
NVIDIA GeForce 9400M 256 MB
Mac OS X Lion 10.7 (11A511)
Latest Apple bluetooth keyboard, trackpad, and mouse
     Basically, after the computer has been to sleep (and I think the bluetooth devices also because this does not happen instantly after sleep if you wake it back up as the Apple Genuis tried and could not get it to happen) and I wake it about 30 minutes or later with either the built in keyboard or any bluetooth device, all bluetooth devices are responding (connected for sure), but my cursor for exmaple jumps across the screen and the keyboard wont type and is super slow. Keep in mind that the whole time this is happening, the built in keyboard and trackpad work great (leads me to think this is bluetooth hardware or software related). After about 1 minute, I can move the mouse cursor normally and type in my password to login. I will eventually take a screen-recording and show my perspective. I have taken this into an Apple retail store, and they could not get it happen, but I think this has to do with the bluetooth devices sleeping, or the amount of time after sleep. We only waited for the front light on the Macbook to go bright and dim to confirm it was asleep and then woke it up and everything worked ok. The Genuis also check all hardware and confirmed the bluetooth hardware was working. I never had this problem at all with Snow Leopard. This happened as soon as I upgraded to Lion, I thought maybe I had a problem with the upgrade from SL to Lion, but I re-installed Lion (fresh) and still have the same exact problem.
     Please let me know if there is any thing I left out and I will be happy to edit. I don't always remember everything. Thanks!

I just had a similar issue and fixed it by turning off the keyboard, waiting for the computer to recognise that, then turned it back on, all better.
Last night I manually activated SLEEP from the Apple menu - I rarely do this but thought of it to kill the glare as I went to sleep. This morning it woke up ok, but typing on the BT keyboard was super slow (I was changing windows then watching the keypresses appear in the new field, about one per second) and a special-characters popup was appearing (never seen that before). The Magic Mouse was working fine, as were the onboard keyboard and trackpad.
My laptop (MBP 17" 2.53 i5) recently upgraded from SL10.6.8 to Lion 10.7.2, I have yet to apply the 10.7.3 patch.

Dead USB controller after waking up from sleep

Hi,
I posted this a while back but the issue is still unresolved. I am experiencing USB port sleep issues after upgrading to Tiger (currently running 10.4.8). Sometimes the build-in USB port that has my keyboard connected to literally wakes up dead from sleep. Here is the error message from the Console log
(XX-Computer kernel[0]: USBF: 24445.528 AppleUSBOHCI[0x15ab800] Watchdog detected dead controller (hcca #: 56759, hc #: 64465).
This happens with no set pattern, sometimes it wakes up fine, other times the port is dead. A restart is required to bring it back to life.
Any ideas why this is happening? If I plug in my keyboard to the other USB 1.1 port everything works fine (the port remains dead until the next restart). I also have a USB2 PCI card that works with the keyboard without any dead port issues but I can't use it for waking the computer (does not trigger wake up), but I simply prefer to use one of the equipped USB ports for my keyboard.
I have 2 external FireWire HD's connected at times, one daisy-chained to an external FireWire CD Burner. I have a USB 1.1 hub connected to the other equipped USB 1.1 port, and a USB 2 PCI card installed.
I run system maintenance tasks frequently (Onyx) and repair permissions prior and post SW installs and updates.
Thanks for any input.

It seems that this problem is unique to my system. I am hoping that one of the Mac Guru's will have at least a pointer in the right direction.
Thanks.

Bonjour services lost after waking up from sleep

My MacBook Air can initially see all the Bonjour Services from my NAS, Printer and PC in my local network.
When my IBook becomes awake after it was in sleep mode all the available Bonjour Services are not visible anymore.
My Wifi and internet are still working, but when I turns Wifi off and on, the services are visible again.
By the way my iPad doesn't have this kind of problems, Bonjour stays always visisble here.
What can I do to keep the Bonjour Services visible on my MacBook Air.

The previous solution only worked for a few days.
I have another fix from Apple that is working (for now):
Go to the network preference pane and create a new location by using the location pull-down menu. Call it whatever you want.
Select the new location. Choose the little tool icon dropdown under the left column of services and choose "set service order" Drag things around so that airport comes first and then ethernet. Save, apply, do what you need to do to save all of these settings. Restart the computer.
There might have been some other steps, but these are the main and most important parts.
The default configuration for service order is wrong and the computer gets hung looking around for a bluetooth or firewire network connection. After every major system update, check that the service order is set right--it could get overwritten.

Macbook connectivity lost after waking up from sleep mode or rebooting

Being an Ex-Microsoft user , I am sad to say that Microsoft products still beats Apple's MAC in stability for certain functions.
For instance, this Macbook laptop does not seem to be able to reconnect to the home's gateway/ router (or any other gateway, for the matter) after it wakes up from sleep mode or rebooting.
I've read several similar posts on this topic in the internet and am convince to say that it is not the gateway/ router that the Mac is connected to giving the problem as there are other computers(Microsoft-based) connected to the same gateway working perfectly fine.
Furthermore the Fujitsu laptop I was using previously had connected to the gateway flawlessly... until the darn-thing broke down (grumble....grumble...)
So far, it seemingly so, that no other person has managed to figure and resolve this one out yet. Also, no Apple support staff has responded nor helped resolved other related-connectivity problems.
Is there a real hope for us??
