OSX 10.7.5 How can I make my computer wake up from sleep?

My computer won't wake up from sleep whether I put it to sleep by a hot corner or by closing the lid.  Has anyone a solution, plezase?

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, by a peripheral device, or by corruption of certain system caches. 
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 and  Wi-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.

  • How can I make my computer not turn off (sleep mode, or hybernate)? While plugged into the wall.

    I have two dogs, and i am trying to see which one is tearing up my couch while im away by recording via my built in camera and "iMovie". But after a few times trying, I relised that my computer "sleeps" or "hybernates" after only a half an hour. It is plugged in, and i went to System Prefrences > energy saver > then clicked on power adapter and moved both "computer sleep and display sleep" to never. turned off my screen saver. and still having issues with this. Am i missing somthing?

    Thank you Courcoul, i appericate your help. but if you would have read my whole description, you would have noticed i already tried that. "It is plugged in, and i went to System Prefrences > energy saver > then clicked on power adapter and moved both "computer sleep and display sleep" to never." i also did check the schedule times, and it is off, both wake up times, and sleep times.

    shoo: if i had to do that for every file i get  i would go insane, as scott said, post contract: files that they (sub contractor) supply you, presume them ok unless you KNOW otherwise, or a copyright flag pops up contradicting ownership.

    How can I make my computer restart with all the same windows that were open when a shut it down?

    That is the way Mac OS X 10.8 (aka Mountain Lion) works by default. Are you actually running that system? (See About This Mac in the Apple menu.) If so, make sure the check box in the shut down alert is checked:

  • How can I change my computer's language from English to Spanish?

    How can I change my computer's language from English to Spanish? My computer is an iMac G3 (CRT) and it has Mac OS 9 installed.

    This isn't possible in Mac OS 9.2.2 and earlier without doing a full installation of the Spanish version of the OS, which requires an installation disk containing it.

  • How to take a photo after wake up from sleep

    There are two questions:
    how to create an automator to take a photo by isight in silent mode.
    How to run this automator during the machine wake up from sleep.
    Thanks a lot.

    How do you make iAlertU take a photo and email it to you whenever the computer wakes up? I only know how to use it when you "arm" it as an alarm, which can get annoying to do all the time. I just looked in their preferences and I don't think you can set it to email you a photo whenever it wakes up without being in alarm mode.

  • How can I make an editable pdf file from Indesign?

    I have created a Indesign dealer catalog for my company and exported it into a interactive PDF for the Engineers to use when helping a customer with ordering. Now they would like to be able to edit the PDF with notes whenever they want. How can they do this?

    PDFs are not designed to be editable. Your engineers can make comments using Adobe Reader without any extra steps provided they use the highlight and sticky note comments. If you want them to have access to the full range of comment markup you will need to use Acrobat to apply extended rights to the file.

  • How can I make a link to EBS from BIEE 11g?

    Hello, I have some trouble with BIEE.
    I tried to make a link to EBS from BIEE using Action, but it doesn't work.
    I read manual and set as it is written, but when I click the link I got
    message which says that "Oracle eBusiness Suite Server cannot be used now.
    Please try it again.
    If it won't be solved, contact to support desk".
    I tried to edit xml files in many ways, but it doesn't work...
    The document and posts about making link to EBS from BIEE 10g can be
    often found on internet but not about 11g.
    If anyone knows about this solution, please help me.
    Yuchi

    Hi Daan,
    Thank you for your reply!
    I construct the link by looking the document provided by Oracle.
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14571_01/bi.1111/e16364/ebs_actions.htm#CJAFDEIB
    In this document I followed the step to make database object and connection pool, set up
    authentication and modify xml files. Then I thought I could use BI Action Navigate to EBS,
    but it didn't work, then I asked coworkers and I've told to do "5.3 Embedding Links to Oracle Business Intelligence in Oracle E-Business Suite" in this document.
    At first I thought I need not do this setting because I would like to make action navigate from BI to EBS,
    not from EBS to BI.
    Although I managed to embed link to BI in EBS, it still doen't work.(but the connection from EBS to BI was successful)
    And I tried to verify BI and EBS are in same domain, but I have no idea how to verify.
    Could you please give me the way to check it?
    Sincerely,
    Yuchi

  • How can I make PSE8 to read "Rating" from XMP files?

    Hi, I'm trying to share "Rating" perameter between Lightroom2 and Photoshop Elements8.
    PSE8 can't seem to read the perameter from XMP files created by Lightroom2.
    I did following steps.
    1. (Lightroom2) Configure a camera RAW file named aaa.cr2 and rate it as five stars.(I use a Canon DSLR. )
    2. (Lightroom2) Make a XMP file corresponding to the file. aaa.xmp is created in the same directory.
    3. (Explorer and notepad) Open aaa.xmp with a notepad.exe and check "Rating" is set five.
    4. (PSE8) Open aaa.cr2 as PSE8 Organizer. Its thumbnail is applied configured parameters by Lightroom2 such as exposure compensation to.
    5. (PSE8) However, rating parameter in PSE8 orginizer still shows zero star.
    It'a feature? Or something is strange?
    Can someone help me?

    Hi, John.
    Follwing XML is one of my XMP file created by lightroom2.
    I rated this CR2 file as three stars and <xap:Rating>3</xap:Rating> means it,
    but PSE8 doesn't read this parameter even if I started Elements Orginizer.
    When I select "update thumnail", Orginizer applys lighturoom2's effect to thumnail,
    and Camera RAW plagin can open the file with all lightroom's effects applied. However, stars still shows zero.
    Shoud I do something to make PSE8 to read it?

  • How can I make another computer my main computer for sync use

    my main computer is going to be the one that generates the change to book marks and tabs. when I first
    set up sync I used a secondary computer not realizing it would be the main computer. how can i change
    the status of the computers. now that all of my data has merged I need to clean it up and maintain it for
    the new main computer. Thank you Miles

    If your secondary system don't want to SYNC. then try the following method to stop SYNC
    Type '''about:config''' in URL and search for '''services.sync.prefs.sync.''' and set the value as "fasle".

  • How can I make my computer recognize my iPod Nano?

    My computer was recognizing my nano until today when I unplugged it and plugged it back in a few hours later and now I can't get my computer to recognize my iPod. I took it to my parents house, loaded a bunch of songs to it and when I brought it back my computer did recognize it but then I unplugged it and it doesn't anymore. I uninstalled and reinstalled the iPod and iTunes software and did everything I could think of but since my computer isn't recognizing it, the software isn't either. I have read all online manuals and many, many posts and I can't find any answers but I have tried everything that I can think of.
    Thanks for any and all help you can give me.

    yeah imn having the exact same problem. mine never worked for about the first 10 times i tried it and then it worked one time all of a sudden and then the next time i plugged it back in (not changing anything) it just didnt work again. i have all the latest apple software and all that it just wont work.
