Power USB Hub shutting down iMac while in sleep
Hello,
First time using the forums here and I do apologized if this has been discussed before. I recently purchased a power 7 port USB hub (Newer Technology) from OWC. I plugged it in and everything seems to work great. However, when my iMac goes to sleep, it completely shuts off my iMac? I've verified that this is the issue and tested several times to confirm. I did a SMC reset and that did not work.
I was hoping if anyone who may have input in this matter or experience what I'm experiencing? I could return the usb hub and find a replacement but I was wondering if there is a solution for this. Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you.
If you installed Mac OS X 10.6.6 using Software Update then I would try installing the 10.6.6 Combo manually. Occasionally the Combo can install any missing pieces in your OS.

Power Mac G5 Shuts Down When Waking From Sleep
I picked up a Power Mac G5 for a song at work. It had OS X Tiger 10.4.11, 1 GB RAM and 160 GB HDD, I've since upgraded the RAM to 2 GB, the HDD to 1 TB, and installed OS X Leopard 10.5 from an install disk I had bought when it first came out, and then upgraded to 10.5.8. It works and does what I want it to do.
It refuses to wake up from sleep since I first brought it home.
When it goes to sleep, the power light pulses like it should. However, when I move the mouse or press a key, it does a hard shutdown imediately. I've explored the suggestions here and searched on the internet for a solution.
Here is what I have done:
1. Unplugged everything but the keyboard and monitor
2. Replaced the keyboard with another white one that had never been used
3. Replaced the battery on the Logic Board
4. Pressed the SMC button on the Logic Board
5. Did a PRAM reset
6. Erased, partitioned the disk, and reinstalled Leopard from scratch
There are no extra programs loaded, only Leopard and the programs that came with it.
I've changed the Energy Saver Preference Pane to never sleep:
This is not going to kill me if the best option is to never sleep.
Everyone have a nice day.

It is on an APC ups, so it could be a flaky power supply. At least it doesn't do any spontaneous shutdowns, yet, so I can live with it. If it dies, I will buy a new MacMini.
I had a similar sporadic problem with my G5 on a UPS which was failing. The surge on wake was enough to sag the power causing the PSU to kill the power supply. The UPS finally tanked and getting a new one cured the problem. You might see how it reacts on normal mains power as an experiment.
Also, never underestimate the capacity of a G5 power supply to accumulate dust, which reminds me that it is time I blew out my power supply dust, since it's been about a year since the last cleaning. -

Purchased "high power" USB hub, still doesn't charge.
I found a 4-port USB hub with two "high power" ports (Targus ACH80US), but my iPad still won't charge when attached (yes, to the high power port, yes it's plugged into the wall too).
Anyone have any ideas? I'm using an older G5 iMac, but it's going through the new "high power" USB hub.Copied from this link.
http://www.apple.com/batteries/ipad.html
The quickest way to charge your iPad is with the included 10W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter. *When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge, but only when it's in sleep mode.* Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
Does your iPad not charge when the iPad is in sleep mode? -
Firefox is frozen, will not open, and will not let me shut down iMac.
A couple of days ago, I installed Evernote. That made it so that my iMac would never shut down or go to sleep or restart because Evernote wanted to remain running all the time. Now Firefox has stopped responding. I cannot open Firefox, nor can I close it, nor can I shut down, restart, or log off of my iMac. I guess this might be related to Evernote, but I cannot find a way to uninstall Evernote. I do not know how to go into Safe Mode on the iMac. Two months ago, I upgraded the software to Mavericks and have had problems ever since. The only browser now working is Safari. I read that I should uninstall and reinstall Firefox, but do not see how, because I cannot open Firefox to get to Help on the Firefox toolbar. I see only the Safari toolbar. I cannot open Help and see Troubleshooting Information because I am not in Firefox, I am in Safari.
Hi,<br>
It sounds like you have several programs that are stuck (not responding). Here are Apple's instructions for "force quitting" applications that are not responding - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3411
If you still can't shutdown your computer after trying that, you can press and hold the power button for several seconds and the computer will shut off.
It's likely that once you can shut the computer down and then restart it, that Evernote and Firefox and other programs will behave normally. -
While I'm using safari, it will freeze up. When I force quit safari and reopen it, I find that I'm back to where I was when I did the force quit and safari remains locked up. When I try to restart the computer, I get a pop up that says that safari cancelled my restart. I then press the power button to shut down the computer. When I reboot the computer and open safari, I see all the tabs and windows that were opened when this issue began, only this time safari isn't frozen. This problem started yesterday.
Has anyone experienced the same problem? Is there a fix for this problem?Try Resetting Safari: Open Safari. Cick on the name Safari in the menu bar. In the drop down menu click Reset Safari.

How to set up password from power on (from shut down)
I have 2 powerbooks and set up passwords for them. For older PBG3, it seems working the password from power on from shut down. But, PBG4 doesn't show up to input password when power on from shut down. It just asks from wake of sleep.
Where can I set up password for this?842/3288
Hi Blue Sky,
- Check in System Preferences > Accounts > Login Options
if the option "Automatically log in as" is disabled.
- Another matter, about increasing security with PowerBooks:
Read it carefully before using it, but this can be useful:
- Setting up firmware password protection in Mac OS X 10.1 or later

Have an iPod touch 4th gen. It is completely charged, but once I disconnect from a power source it shuts down and then the apple logo just keeps reappearing. I have restored via iTunes and reset all the settings. Any suggestions?
If you restored to factory settings/new iPod via iTunes (Not via Settings>General>Reset>Erase all Content and Setting) and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem.
Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store..

My ipod Nano generation 7 shuts down unexpectedly while using the NIKE app, has anyone experienced this problem?
This is not a problem I have only had with 7th gen. iPod. I have had this problem with the 5th gen. It goes back a few years. Nike and Apple are aware of this. Nothing has been done. It appears that when the iPod voice commences (whether to update you on the status of your run) and you touch a button to prompt a mileage update or song change yourself (or even brush the device wrong when taking off a jacket), the operating system overloads and cannot sort it out. It then shuts down and reboots. Your mileage is lost. So sorry. Have a nice day.
Love the other aspects of running with a nano (small and light weight). I can keep it high and dry and out of the way. Like the software. Use it almost everyday. Hate the unknown dropped runs. I have logged over 2,000 miles with these devices. Today I lost another 3 miles - probably the 30-40th time it has happened. Frustration is somewhere between time for another device to time for another system - Map My Run indeed!
This probably occurs with my iPod once or twice a month. Went to the Apple Store - three times. The first time was maybe two years ago and they first tried some magic dust and then on the second visit, they swapped out my nano - it was a bit flimsy. The problem returned. I then upgraded. The problem returned. The third time they did a reset and it seemed to help. Then, it returned. But to download an older software version, verify the fidelity of the UBS cable, jump from computer to computer, make a trip to the Apple store, and perform so many two steps on one leg just to get what we paid for seems . . . well, lame. And, Apple told us the thingy would work using all the different computers and software (Vista, Nike, etc. etc.).
Oh, one other thing. The Apple Store told me to complain to Nike. Nike said their software is fine. This is like dealing with General Motors or the government - but, worse. Not my problem man. See the guy over there. Got it.
I note that no one from Apple is jumping in the chain here with a fix. So much for customer exuberance. Generally like Apple. We have about 20 Apple devices in our family (desktops, portables, phones, pods, tablets) and are lining up for the watches . . . but, maybe Apple is an idea who time has come and gone, . . . like the wind. -
Now that I upgraded to Maverick on my Mac air, I can not use the power button to shut down the computer anymore. I now have to go to the apple icon in the upper left corner. Any short cuts instead of going to the apple in the top left corner and hitting shut down. Doing that all the time, I feel like I am back at work using a "Windows" computer.
This a is tricky one, but you can still do it. Instead of pressing the power button, hold it down for a few seconds and then you'll see the shut down options dialog pop up.
I guess they were trying to prevent accidental touching of that button. They did something similar with the Eject button a few versions ago, where you have to hold down Eject instead of just tapping it so that you don't pop out a CD by mistake. -
This is a freeze, not a crash, so I can't submit info to Mozilla. I've been through this in repeated updates, and it's only getting worse. FF used to be stable, now it's unreliable. I have OS X 10.6.8, fully updated. I have only 2 add-ons: Jave Applet Plug-in 13.8.3 and Shockwave Flash 11.4.402.265. It's entirely random, and usually with an ordinary site, with no video or pop-ups or anything moving. Force-quitting doesn't work; FF shows it's closed in the dock but the window is still open on the screen, and the beachball is spinning. It progressively freezes each app I click on, and finally I have to use the power button to shut down and restart. Again, this is getting worse, not better. I moved to FF because IE and Safari were so bad, but now FF is no better. Thankfully Word seems to save whatever I'm working on if I have to shut down, but email doesn't. With this kind of freeze, I'm not given the option to submit info to Mozilla - everything is frozen, the submit window doesn't even appear.
I spent many years on OSX 10.4 using FF with little problem. It was a bit bloated but worked fine.
Once I got a new machine and went to 10.6, my FF experience went downhill fast. I'm now on 10.6.8 and FF15 and it's by far the worst experience I've ever had with a browser.
It is, frankly, abysmal.
It locks up constantly, grinds away on the hard drive, seems unable to deal with javascript without slowing to a turgid crawl. It freezes seemingly at random and ties up my whole machine.
In the course of a typical working day, I estimate I have to force quit FF around 40 - 50 times. If I start or quit any other app, FF locks up shortly after. -
MacBook will not shut down or go to sleep
My MacBook is not shutting down or going to sleep.
When I try to shut down: The desktop disappears as normal but then the plain blue screens appears (with the little circle down the bottom which spins (not the beach ball)) and it just stays there forever. To shut down I need to hold the power button for 10 seconds.
When I try to put the MacBook to sleep by closing the lid: The light in the bottom right hand corner comes on but it does not "pulse" - suggesting it has not gone to sleep.
When I try to put the MacBook to sleep using the Apple (top left hand) menu: Nothing happens.
I am not 100% sure when this started happening, but I believe it either started happening after:
a) The firmware update which was supposed to fix the "mooing" problem"; or
b) One of the system software updates.
If you need my current system/firmware version, you will have to tell me how to do this because I don't know how to find these numbers.
This is really frustrating because I move my laptop around a lot so I would like to be able to use the shut down/sleep functions. Any help would be greatly appreciated.First couple things to check is do you have any external drives plugged into the Macbook? My macbook would sleep because I had an external drive that prevented it from sleeping.
Also, check what's loading at Startup. There might be a program that's preventing this. Something that constantly needs internet access would cause this. Open up your System Preferences/Accounts/Login Items. See if something in there could be causing the problem.
Hope that helps a little.

Computer shuts down without going to sleep
hello,
i've had an increasingly swollen battery with a corresponding diminished life. to a point that it barely fit, lasted ten minutes on its own and when it became depleted, the macbook pro would just shut down without a warning.
so i bought a new one and although it lasted about 2h30 on its first cycle, when it displayed the low battery warning, the computer shut down without going to sleep...
tried resetting PRAM, and SMC to no avail.
i charged it back up a bit and it shut down again.
it's on its 3rd cycle and battery health already dropped from 100% to 94%.
anything i can do?
thanks...Are you sure it is shutting down and not going to sleep "permanently"? I say this because I have (and others) a somewhat similar problem but it's not shutting down, it sleeps forever:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1400708
Also, I was going to suggest maybe your battery has died out, but you said it is plugged in, so probably not your battery as the problem. -
My MacBook Pro 13'' shuts down randomly while connected to the power cord.
Alright, so my Mac is shutting down while being connected to the power cord. Though, when I unplugged it, it runs just fine.
I've read up on the other random shut downs but they seem to be different in my case. I was only surfing youtuve on Firefox, granted I had a few other tabs open but they weren't doing anything that would run the computer hot, and it shut down out of no where. The battery was full and it was still connected to my power cable. The screen went blank and the computer was completely off. I noticed that the light on the plug in wasn't on and switch the outlet that the computer was plugged into and replugged it into my computer. The light came on and after about three or so times of pressing the power on button it came back to life. Though, it stayed on the start up, white apple page and just spun. After a while it looked as if it was about to go to my password page but it shut down after gently moving the computer. The power cable light went off once again. I unplugged it and replugged it into my computer but the light would not come back on. After just removing the cord and pushing the button a few times my computer came back to life and I logged in as normal except for the fact that after it came back on the date and time was reset and several applications needed permissions. It also randomly logged me out of my Facetime account as well.
All in all I was wondering if anyone else had a similar problem and know what's going on or if this is new. Could it be some kind of spark in the power cable from a broken wire that made my computer shut down or is it something attacking my computer?Please make a Genius Appointment and take it in for service.
