No resume, hibernating or deep sleep?

My 5th gen Ipod (30Gb, video) goes into, from what I can tell, into something deeper than hibernation. It happens after about 12 hours after I turn it off using the Play button and holding it for a few seconds.
When I turn it on again I have to press the menu button. And then it boots to the main menu, and I have to select the playlist all over again, playing from the top.
Quite annoying when I want to listen to a certain album, because I get to hear the first tracks all over again when I was hoping to liste to the middle part of the album.
An by some means the randomness is weird. My 300 song playlist acts weird in conjunction with the above issue, it randomizes what feels like the 50 first tracks. So the next time I use the iPod, I get the same 50 or so songs all over again. It used to be a 500 song playlist but I have grown borde of what used to be the 200 first ones...
I've tried most things including resetting it to factory default but I might have done some setting I forgot about or overlooked some other setting.
Please help!

Thanks!
Sort of. I turn it off by holding down Play/pause button for a few seconds.
So it enters Rest-mode. And if I leave it that way it goes into Deep Rest-mode?
The issue for me, is that it doesn't resume play on the playlist I listened before I turned it off. Is that normal?
I have to power it up using the Menu button which sends me to the main menu and I have to select the playlist again upon the iPod starts all over again on that list, which I don't want it to.

Deep Sleep OSX then Boot Windows

I've recently installed Windows 7 using Boot Camp - like a lot of people, I just use it for gaming. It works well, but it'd be a thousand times more pleasant to switch between the two if I could have OSX boot back into the same state that I left it in; I know that deep sleep writes the state to the hard drive, so it should be possible to boot into Windows and then resume OSX from deep sleep later, but I can't seem to access the boot options after deep sleep - it automatically resumes the OSX session when I hit the power button.
I know it should be possible, perhaps using a little EFI trickery, but I'm at a loss for where to begin. Any ideas, anyone?

Just sharing. I had tried the following that does not work:
- While in OS X, start Terminal and run /efi/refit/enable.sh. Then put the Mac to deep sleep.
- When I power up the Mac, the efi menu will appear and I am able to select to boot OS X or Bootcamp.
- When I select OS X, the Mac will try to recover from the deep sleep mode, but it is never able to complete booting up successfully. The progress bar will get stuck just after the second indicator.
- I then have to hard shutdown the Mac.
- The next time when I power it up, it will boot normally into OS X as if the sleep image does not exist.

CRASH WHEN WAKING FROM HIBERNATION / DEEP SLEEP

Hi All,
2011 Macbook Pro 15", OS 10.6.8, 750GB Western Digital Black 7200rpm, 16GB RAM
I have searched and found several different discussions regarding this issue. When the battery gets low the OS forces a system hibernation / deep sleep. Once you connect the macbook pro into a charger and try to wake, it gets about 1/2 way through the grey bars and then crashes, and then keeps beeping indefinitely. The only thing you can do is to force a hard reset. Everyone seems to think it is related to an SSD Hard drive, but I have a traditional 7200rpm HDD and it still happens to me. The answer from Apple is "dont run your battery down that far". I am sorry but that is NOT a solution. I am on the road ALL day and sometimes I simply do NOT have access to recharging my macbook pro. The Hibernation / Deep Sleep feature should function correctly as it has done since TIGER 10.4. Can someone please chime in on how to ACTUALLY REPAIR this feature.

Yes I can confirm that this is what I was suspecting. When my Macbook Pro hibernates with Parallels running, it freezes with the RAM problem. When Parallels is off, if wakes normally, no problem at all. I am also getting constant bad RAM "access violation", "runtime", and "exception" errors when running RAM-intensive programs that crash whatever I was working on. This is really making Windows unuseable for me but I am struggling with it considering there is no alternative expect using an actual crappy PC.
I found an article on Parallels forum that describes this issue among others: http://forum.parallels.com/showthread.php?t=108735
Unfortunately, it's been an issue for almost a year now and no solution. Really bad support from Parallels if you ask me. Can't say anything about VMWare though, because I do not use that.

How do i awaken from a deep sleep/hibernation

I have many eMacs in a library I run at my school. On occassion they go into a deep sleep/hibernation that the only way I can awaken them is to pull the plug and then put plug back in and restart. They do not even respond to on/off button being depressed for 30 seconds. There must be a command or better way then unplugging. Thanks for any help.

G4 17"i Mac Mac OS X (10.4.4)

Thanks for the help. Of course I have tried to depress keys and combination of keys to wake but to no avail. The power light on the eMac "throbs" bright/low and no response when in the hibernation mode. At one station 6 eMacs are connected to a hub and the hub goes to an ethernet hook up to a T1 line through our school server. We have many of these types of arrangements throughout the school. Not all of the eMacs do this hibernation however, and is very puzzling has to when and why ones goes into the "deep sleep." I guess i am concerned with screen burn in and when the Mac is in a multiple user log in screen, the screen saver will not activate. Thanks and if you can think of anything else i would appreciate all suggestions.

T450S and WIN8.1, "resume from deep sleep" woes

I installed retail win 8.1 on my T450S. I prepared the "Intel resume" partition at the end of the disk.
Now when it returns from deep sleep it randomly selects between the intel partition (displays "resuming from deep sleep" in preboot screen) and Windows own deep sleep state. ( displays the Lenovo logo and the windows "rose" in preboot screen)
Maybe the intel partition is not needed on win 8.1 ?
Can someone please enlighten me?
PS, I run the Hyper-V hypervisor that presumably disables some of Windows sleep states.

I have a variatio of this issue. Brand new t450s ...arrived yesterday. Power management set to suspend when I close lid (battery or AC). However 50% of the time (randmonly distributed), it shuts down ... hence closes all applications etc. I called Lenovo tech support and they tried to defer me to the "premium OS support" to which I promptly declined. Its a frustrating issue as it defeats the purpose of the suspend function ... any thoughts ?

Turn off deep sleep / hibernation

Hi all,
I do not want to let my MBP go to deep sleep mode every time I close its lid or send it to sleep by one of the other ways. Before the MBP I had a PowerBook G4 which went to "normal" sleep mode in 2-3 seconds. The MBP takes 20-30(!) seconds and I really don't need deep sleep.
Is there any way to turn this feature off in order to get a faster sleep mode like my PBG4 had?
Thanks everyone
Björn

Your MBP is not going into deep sleep. Normal sleep operation on the Intel laptops when you close the lid is:
1. Write current state to the hibernation disk file.
2. Enter "normal" sleep. Computer is not shut off and memory state is maintained (this is Safe Sleep.) Wake-up will be very quick.
In Deep Sleep the following occurs:
1. Current state is written to the hibernation disk file.
2. Computer shuts off. Memory state is not preserved. Upon wake-up there will be a delay during which the operating system loads the saved state from the hibernation disk file. Usually a progress bar appears on the screen as the saved state is loaded into RAM.
From what you describe your computer is set for normal sleep, not Deep sleep.

SSD and corrupted menu after deep sleep

SSD and corrupted menu after deep sleep
Hi, I have a MacBook Pro mid 2012 13 inches (9,2).
I run it with 16GB of ram and OSX 10.8.4
I replaced the internal HD with an Adata SX-910 model (512GB) SSD.
(http://us.adata-group.com/index.php?...cid=3&piid=183)
It runs really fast! Boot time is 10 seconds! :-)
However I have a major problem! When I MacBook Pro will end the battery energy and will go below 3 percent, the Mac will go to sleep itself. When I will start back the Mac, with the power connected, every time I will see the desktop colors corrupted and the menu of Apple Safari, Apple Mail and few others gone! Only solution is to re-install Mac OSX!
I took the Mac to an Apple center and Apple did NOT find any problem with the Mac itself. I have returned the Adata to the vendor and got a new one (with latest firmware).... However I have discovered that the problem is happening again! :-(
I have tried to use Insomnia smartspleep tool, but does not work as expected.I think that only solution is to re-charge the battery before it goes below 3 percent.....
please note: using the trim enabler tool did NOT solved the issue:-(
Any suggestion?
Maybe it is indeed an issue related only to Adata SSD? I am confused and frustrated.

Clinton,
Apple hibernation has three modes. By default, on laptops it suspends the system and make a copy of RAM to disk for a completely safe hibernate. When you have 8 Gigabytes of RAM it takes twenty or thirty seconds to write that RAM image. I suspend/resume often during my day and don’t want to wait. This has worked really well for me.
You can change the Mac’s hibernate behavior using pmset; here’s the reference for it:
http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Darwin/Reference/ManPages/man1/pmset.1. html
“sudo pmset -a hibernatemode 0″ = suspend to RAM only (default on desktops)
“sudo pmset -a hibernatemode 1″ = suspend to disk only
“sudo pmset -a hibernatemode 3″ = suspend to disk + RAM (default on laptops)
How can I set my MacBook Pro to go into deep sleep, I guess it is mode 0, BEFORE the 3 minutes remaing time? I think to be safe, it should go to deep sleep automatically when it is around 15 percent batter level.....

HT2412 iMac "deep sleep" problem

Hi, I have a iMac 27" Late 2012 and it keeps going in "deep sleep" when I leave it unattended during the day. When I come back, I have to wait for my mac to load the saved state which is quite long. I had many macs in my life and it's the first time I encounter the problem. I've seen that sleep mode before when my MacBook would be out of battery, but never on a desktop... My energy saver settings are set to never sleep (computer) and 15 minutes (display). My setting in Privacy/Advanced/Log out after XX min of inactivity is also off. I checked my hibernation mode in the terminal and it is set to 0. Out of ideas. Anyone ?
Thank you !

I have the same problem on my black MacBook. My problem is intermittent. Sometimes restart works; sometimes I'll select restart, but after the logout it never really shuts down. Black screen, glowing status indicator, completely unresponsive. I've also left it overnight with no change. The only "fix" is to do a hard shut down with the power button, whereupon I'm presented with the annoying "computer wasn't shut down properly" message on startup. No kidding! But no matter how many times I report it, no response.
I've tried resetting the power manager, I've tried zapping the pram. I've tried reinstalling the system -- I just nuked and paved this weekend, with no change. So either it's a hardware problem, or something fundamentally wrong with the OS. But since I don't hear a lot of people complaining about this one, that makes me think it's specific to my (and your) computer...
I called Apple about it while still under warranty, but got no helpful suggestions. The nearest apple store is 7 hours away, so I can't just pop in and show off my problem

MacBook always needs to be woken from deep sleep twice

Whenever I wake my MacBook Pro (mid 2012) from "deep sleep"/"hibernation", it wakes up with the gray loading bar and brings me to the login screen as usual, but the keyboard and mouse remain unresponsive. The cursor is blinking in the "Enter Password" field and everything, but it won't recognize any input at all. It remains this way for 2 or 3 minutes, and then it shuts off again. Not just goes back to regular sleep, but back to "deep sleep", so I have to press the power button again, I get the mac chime, and the gray loading bar again, and this time it does this same thing but after about a minute it will suddenly start recognizing mouse and keyboard input.
What's up with this? Is it some driver that's taking a very very long time to load or something? This happens 100% of the time, every single time I wake my MacBook from deep sleep, without fail. Please help, this is extremely inconvenient.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Please take this step regardless of the results of Step 1.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup 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, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

MacBook reboots from Deep Sleep

Hi all,
Recently, my MacBook 13" (early 2009) has changed its default behaviour.
Previously, when the battery drained right down while it was in Sleep, it would enter Deep Sleep and when I pressed the power button it would wake from this state with a greyed out desktop and a progress bar, before restoring to its previously saved state.
Now, it progresses to about 2/3 of the progress bar, before rebooting completely. It no longer resumes from where it was.
I changed the hard drive to a larger model a little while ago and I'm wondering if this is the cause?
Is there another simple fix, or was the previous behaviour due to its original Apple drive (a 160GB Fujitsu MHZ2160BH FFS G1) and the new Hitachi (ZK5320-320) won't be able to do the same thing?
It was running Snow Leopard (10.6.8) before and after the hard drive switch. I simply restored from Time Machine.

Same issue here, iMac late 2012.
iMac is going to sleep, dont respond to Keyboard, Mouse wake call ... fast push to Power Button and the iMac start like it was turned off ....

Carrying around MBP in sleep or deep sleep

I can't seem to find a recent post about this issue, or one that answers my specific question, so here goes.
Numerous posts suggest that it has always been fine to carry a MB or MBP around in sleep mode (in a bag, to and from work for example). But the guy at the Mac store here in Taipei (not sure if he has the "genius" status or not) says that this my damage the hd, as it still spins very slowly during sleep. My first quesiton is, who's right on this point?
Second, other posts suggest that deep sleep is better than regular sleep if you don't mind waiting a bit longer to wake up, in that it saves the current state to hd memory instead of RAM. My second question is, does this make it any safer for carrying the computer around without shutting down?
Incidently, I found that the original Deep Sleep widget (Deep Sleep, last update Feb. 2009) doesn't seem to work with Snow Leopard, it just keeps asking me for my admin password, even after I enter it. I did find a new one that does, however, from Axonic Labs (Axonic Labs - DeepSleep Widget - Hibernate your Mac). Let me know if you have tried a different one, and which you prefer.
Thanks!

Hi; I don't use Hibernation myself; left Sleep as is. Also; from System Preferences > Hardware > Energy Saver > Power Adapter, be sure that the box is checked by "Put the hard disk to sleep when possible." If you want to see what Hibernation mode is, and give it a try:
sleep state (DeepSleep widget can automate this):
from Rob Griffiths, Mac911: Check the current sleep state with Terminal, in Applications > Utilities. After you launch Terminal, the first step is to determine which sleep mode your Mac is currently using (in case you wish to go back to it). You can both view and change the sleep mode using the Unix program pmset. To see your current settings, type (or copy and paste)
pmset -g | grep hibernatemode
You should see something like this:
$ pmset -g | grep hibernatemode
hibernatemode 3
Great, so your machine is using mode 3, whatever that might be. Well, thanks to the documentation for the handy Deep Sleep Dashboard widget, which puts your machine immediately into hibernation mode (so you don’t have to yank all the power sources to invoke it), we can tell exactly which mode is which:
* 1 - Hibernation mode, with RAM contents written to disk, system totally shut down while “sleeping,” and slower wake up, due to reading the contents of RAM off the hard drive.
* 3 - The default mode on machines introduced since about fall 2005. RAM is powered on while sleeping, but RAM contents are also written to disk before sleeping. In the event of total power loss, the system enters hibernation mode automatically.
Once you see which mode you’re presently using, make a note of it. To Change the sleep mode setting you use pmset again: to set to the hibernate sleep mode (which is mode 1 from the above list), enter this command:
sudo pmset -a hibernatemode 1
Press Return, and you’ll be asked for your password. Provide it, and your sleep mode has been changed. If you ever wish to go back to your previous setting, just repeat the above command, but replace 1 with 3.
And yes, this means you can also set your machine to always go directly into hibernation mode by running the above command with 1 at the end. I find it much simpler, though, to use the Deep Sleep widget — and the widget also returns the hibernatemode setting to its prior value, which means that you can use the widget for hibernation, and still enter normal sleep mode the next time you simply close the lid. Note that restarting is not required for these changes to take effect.
Wrap up: Personally, I find the new sleep mode (3) a blessing, and I’ve left my machine in that mode. If you prefer the old (1) hibernate behavior, however, now you know exactly how to go there. Yes, it requires a trip into Terminal land, but it’s really not that hard to do. from Rob Griffiths
Also, RT76, carrying the MBP in a bag:
have you a hard shell custom pack?
Should the lid open accidentally while in transport, you will have a hot MBP with battery run down, when you need the MBP and take it out of the bag.
I use this: Lidwake
go to Utilities > Terminal
type in (or, copy and paste)
sudo pmset lidwake 0
then Press Return
it will ask for your password. type it in, Press Return.
Now, when your computer is sleeping with the lid closed, as you open the lid nothing happens until you press any key ...
Where's the "anykey?" Homer Simpson
To put it back, run this: sudo pmset lidwake 1

Deep sleep (hibernate mode) instead sleep

Hello everyone,
I have a little problem with my macbook. When the battery reach 5% left, I get the usual warning. But if I continue to use my macbook, it doesn't go in sleep mode but in deep sleep mode when the battery reach 0%. And I'm pretty sure that's not the good behaviour because in the calibration guide from apple, it says
"At this point, save your work. Continue to use your computer; when the battery gets very low, the computer will automatically go to sleep."
I've already checked the hibernation mode. The value is 3. Wich is safe sleep.
Thank you.

Unfortunately, this problem seems to have begun shortly after I installed 10.6.1
but only seems to affect a Canon LiDE 200 scanner (other USB devices are fine).
And as others have reported, it doesn't happen every time - I can scan for 3 or
4 days in a row, and then not be able to scan. For example, I scanned 2
documents today before dinner, put my iMac to sleep for a few hours, and woke it
after dinner - and couldn't scan.
The only reliable solution is a restart, which I really don't want to do, since
I have many other apps running. I tried unplugging the scanner, put the system
to sleep, then wake it, and plugging the scanner back in, but no difference.
I used to have this scanner on a powered USB hub, but recently began to plug it
into a port on the back of the iMac - but again, same results (no scanning).
Any idea if this is the beginning of a failure in the USB part of the system
board? Or a failure of the scanner? Or bad Canon driver software? It's really
frustrating . . .
Thanks for any suggestions you-all may have . . .

What is the difference between these deep sleep methods?

I have found two ways to put the MBP into "Deep Sleep"/Hibernation but I am not sure what the difference is. Could you help me?

Is the latter even Hibernation? Thanks for any help.

Difference between Safe and Deep Sleep?

Hello everyone!
I recently added the Deep Sleep widget for times when I want to force my laptop to hibernate with some battery left and not completely shut it down, but recently it's just been going into hibernation mode when I leave my laptop alone for a few minutes. I clicked on the "info" button in the corner of the widget and discovered the reason: the "Regular Sleep Mode" was set to "deep".
I know quick sleep is the normal "pulsing/breathing" sleep function, but what's the difference between "Safe Sleep" and "Deep Sleep"?

http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1757
Deep Sleep is the equivalent of Windows hibernation. The state of the machine is written to the hard disk and the power is turned off.
Safe Sleep is the first part of Deep Sleep. Before the MBP goes into regular sleep the state of the machine is written to the hard disk. That's why it takes a while for the indicator to begin pulsing. If the battery dies while in regular sleep nothing is lost because of the write to the hard disk. Regular sleep becomes Deep sleep if the battery dies.

My iMac won't deep sleep/hibernate after last update

I use my iMac almost everyday (sometimes except of weekends) and one of first things I did when I bought it I somehow turned on hibernation function which I use on my MacBook (RAM->HDD and power off). It's very useful for me since the next day I get everything where I left it and it uses no energy during the night.
Yesterday I finally had to reboot my iMac for some reason and decided it would be a good time to make updates which needed the OS restart anyway - it was one Safari update and I think one OS update. After my iMac rebooted and I pressed power button - instead of showing the screen in gray and progress bar of saving RAM to HDD my screen turned off and I could turn on my Mac by just pressing any key on the keyboard - which means it just went to sleep mode - not "deep sleep" or "hibernate".
I don't remember how I made hibernation work on my iMac. I tried the "pmset -a hibernatemode 1" trick, few apps like InsomiaX, SmartSleep (showing "hibernate only"), Deep Sleep widgets but none of them works. Do you know any other way to turn on deep sleep/hibernation mode on my desktop mac?
PS. "pmset -g" returns:
Active Profiles:
AC Power -1*
Currently in use:

My connection works OK but I have the same problem you describe occasionally. Seems to be an intermittent problem with the HDMI socket in my PB.

No resume, hibernating or deep sleep?
