Resume From Sleep Login UI Problem

I'll keep this short and sharp.
Previously, when I would resume my mac from sleep, it would make the screen look similar to the normal login screen. With things spread out and nicly formatted. With the menu bar showing the essentials like network, time, and battery in the upper left.
Now, when I resume from sleep a small window appears telling me I need to enter my password to "unlock the screen".
What would cause this? Any applications that I might have installed without being aware?
I have restarted 2/3 times, and I will continue to do so for a short while more, in the hope that it can help me.
Oh. This is after resuming from sleep only. When I get to the normal login screen after turning it on, it's fine, and just as normal.
Thanks in advance!

Hi buddy,
Its really hard to say something about this I can only say that I cant notice this problem on my Windows installation.
By the way: Do you use the Windows version from Toshiba or your own Windows installation?
Theoretically it could be a problem of your Windows installation or HDD itself Are you able to test another HDD or Windows installation that you can make sure its not a software problem?

T60 Type 2623 Blue Screen on Resume from Sleep Mode problem solved - XP Pro

I hope that this post ends some frustrations for some people.
I hope that IBM deals with this issue by getting ATI to fix the video driver issue.
After three months of tracking down blue screens when resuming from Sleep Mode and some lockups while working, I have identified the problem on my T60 Type 2623 running Windows XP-Pro and all service packs and updates. The Sleep Mode resume issues were intermittant and it would be fine for a day or two and then reboot on Resume or reboot every time I used Resume for a while. For months the Blue Screen would reboot and attempt to send the message to Microsoft using the logs, but the logs were always corrupted. I disabled every driver that I could and the problem continued for months.
The problem solution came about when I decided to try my Rhapsody Music account after many months of not using it. I kept getting a message about DRM (Digital Right Management) being disabled and Rhapsody software could not self-fix this. So I finally called Rhapsody and they spent over an hour with me trying to get Rhapsody to work. The support person asked me about my computer and I noted that it was an IBM T60. He then asked about my Video Card and I responded that it was an ATI Mobility Radeon X1300. After a few minutes on hold he asked about my driver version which was 8.442.3-080103a1-057754C the set from January 31, 2008. He noted that there is a known problem wit the 8.4 driver and it interferes with DRM. He had me go to control panel Settings and Hardware and then roll-back the driver to the prior version.
After a reboot, the DRM issue was solved and I soon discovered that my resume from Sleep mode no longer crashed. In fact it has been fine and crash free for over a month now. I have noted that the older driver can sometimes resize my screen to something like 600 X 800 if I close the lid under certain circumstances, but that is just a function key reset to get my normal desktop resolution back. At least it is not a blue screen reboot with a corrupted log file.

Solved!
Go to Solution.

Unfortunately I could not fix the problem so I wiped my system and loaded all new drivers before I found this posting.
Is there a way to get the old ATI driver that works? The only one available on the ATI and Lenovo website is the latest one with the problem. I agree with you David, Lenovo should have fixed this problem already with ATI.

A problem with a macbook retina when resuming from sleep.

After many questions and a complete reinstall at an apple store I stil have the problem. When resuming from sleep, and sometimes seemingly at random, the machine swaps to a different application. I run several desktops full screen and it will swap to a different desktop virtually every time I resume. Not a huge deal but annoying. It seemed to start happening when I installed Office for Mac, but that might just be coincidence. I'm not running anything weird in the background, just a utility to show when the graphics card is active. Any help would he greatly appreciated.

Running games at full resolution may produce occasionally-choppy video, but nothing that would prevent you from playing. I mayself have played Portal and Left 4 Dead 2 on mine, and I haven't noticed any problems.

Touchpad and trackpoint problems, especially when resuming from sleep

I am having persistent problems with the touchpad and trackpoint on my L530. I prefer to use the trackpoint usually, and found that the touchpad was super-sensitive and caused the cursor to jump around during normal (touch) typing so I disabled the touchpad. Next time the thinkpad resumed from sleep mode, the mouse was frozen. Nothing would reactivate it. I had to switch user, which temporarily fixed it, and then reactivate the touchpad.
If I try and change trackpad settings at any time other than directly after a reboot, the settings are greyed-out and I can't touch them. Right now, both trackpad and trackpoint are completely dead again, but I've plugged in a USB mouse and that seems to be working, so I've given up fiddling with it. This will be a pain when I'm moving around with the laptop though!
The OS is Windows 7. Yesterday I went looking for the most recent driver, uninstalled the existing one (as per guidance) and installed the new driver. No luck.
I've heard this is a common problem and apparently installing a generic driver works, but I'm not completely sure what to use. Anyone know?
Oh, and I'm not sure if this is related, but quite often when I resume from sleep mode the keyboard is also dead. However, if I switch user it comes back to life. So annoying but not the end of the world.

Thanks for posting this information in this forum. You just saved me a couple thousand dollars!
Based on my experience if you want to get this problem fixed as soon as possible you need to do the following:
1. www.apple.com/feedback
2. Post a video of the problem on www.youtube.com
3. Send www.apple.com/feedback a link to the video on youtube.
4. Encourage others to visit your youtube video and to post their own.
Good luck!

Lenovo n200 - problems resuming from sleep on Win7

Ok, so I have a 3000 series n200(the so-called ValueLine nowadays), and I just installed Win7. All good til now. Just that when I resume my laptop from sleep, the screen won't light up. All the other functions seem to start pretty good, but not the display, it remains black, no change. And I don't know for sure if it's sleep or hibernate, just that I'm pressing the power button, so this must mean sleep.
Oh, and another thing, I cannot find the correct and up-to-date drivers and software for the fingerprint reader on this model for Win7.
Anybody got any ideas about these 2 issues? Many thx in advance, guys!

I had that problem on two Lenovo laptops - R500 and now T500, but I only have it when the system goes to sleep because of inactivity, when it goes to sleep on-demand everything works. Both laptops have ATI 3xxx gfx cards and I suspect that that has something to do with it. The solution that works for me is whenever it resumes from sleep with a black screen I wait for it to fully start (about 3-5 secs), then hit Fn+F4 to put it to sleep on-demand and then wake it up again via the power button. It's a long way around but it saves me from rebooting.
Regarding the fingerprint reader, I don't know what hardware does your laptop have, but if it is AuthenTec AES 2810 you can download W7 driver from http://www.authentec.com/win7beta32.cfm. It works great and uses Windows 7 integrated Biometrics platform instead of the ThinkVantage kludge. If you have 64bit windows just replace 32 with 64 in the link URL.

GTX660 Twin Frozr 3 OC and resume from sleep problem

Hi,
My 660 twin frozr performs perfectly in game/bench and standard operation but I get consistent error messages when resuming from sleep 'hybrid, S3).
Messages are : either "the graphic driver did not respond and has recovered" or a BSOD "driver verifier has detected violation" or "DPC watchdog violation"
My system :
-Windows 8 64bits
-MSI 660 TF3 OC at stock speed
-MB: Gigabyte H77N WiFi, BIOS F2 then F3C
-i5 3470 at stock speed
-RAM: 2x4GB Crucial ballistic tactical low profile 12800 (XMP profile 1 at 1600MHz 1.35V), OK for hours at memtest86
-PSU: Seasonic G-360. 360W seem low power but 12V single rail is 30A and it powers my system at full load flawlessly (OCCT, game, unigine bench and so on)
What I have tried :
-reinstall windows 8, MB drivers (chipset, WiFi...)
-updated the bios from F2 to latest (but beta) F3C
-nvidia 310.90whql, then 314.07whql (using driver fusion for cleaning)
The resume from sleep issue is still there
Then I tried:
-the 660 TF in a old core2duo with a MSI P35neo MB and vista 32bits. It resumes with the notification "the driver did not respond and has recovered successfully. nvlddmkm..." No BSOD but got this notification each time
-then I tried the old ATI HD4670 in my new PC and the resume/sleep works like a charm.

OK, I had to make a bootable USB drive with DOS because nvflash is not 64bits compatible.
My S/N is 602-v287-050B1212022370 (checked on the box).

Black screen on resume from sleep using open source AMD/ATI driver

When waking from sleep using systemctl suspend or pm-suspend , I am presented with a black screen. I can still open programs, type, etc. but cannot see what I am doing. I usually just wind up rebooting from whatever terminal I had open, but again I can't see what I am typing. Upon reboot, the screen starts back up again. Everything else seems to resume from sleep just fine, it's just the screen that won't turn back on.
I came from Ubuntu and had this same problem there. However, I only had this problem when using the open source xf86-video driver; when using the proprietary drivers, I was able to suspend/resume just fine. So it seems this problem is specific to the open source drivers.
If I'm using an external monitor, my external monitor will resume just fine after waking from sleep, but the laptop screen will not.
Googling around shows this is a common problem with AMD/ATI cards, and after a lot of attempts and failures I'm interested in knowing if anyone else has solved this problem.
What I've tried so far (without success):
-various quirks included with pm-utils to turn on dpms after resume
-xrandr after resumption from sleep
==xrandr --output LVDS --off (If used without suspending (so while the screen still works) this seems to crash Gnome the first time around, but Gnome automatically restarts. If used a second time, it completely blanks the screen and requires a reboot)
==xrandr --output LVDS --mode 1600x900
-xset dpms force on or xset dpms force off after resumption from sleep
-vbetool dpms off and vbetool dpms on results in error message "Real mode call failed"
-scripts using vbetool or xrandr when resuming from sleep
-switching between virtual consoles and gnome using alt-ctrl-fn-f1 and alt-ctrl-fn-f2 keys
My setup:
-HP Envy dv7
-UEFI dual-boot with Windows 8
-AMD Radeon HD 7640G
-xf86-video-ati 1:7.2.0-1 driver
-Gnome DE using GDM login manager
Thank you.
EDIT: I did try using the proprietary drivers for a time, but found I couldn't adjust my brightness. At first I thought working suspension > adjustable brightness, but I quickly changed my mind after one night of trying to work on an unadjustable maximally bright screen.

Update to 10.6.8 - system hang (mouse issue) after resume from sleep

I am on older
MacBook Pro3.1
Intel Core 2 Duo
2.6GHz
Run on 10.6.8 almost flawelessly. Shortly after upgrade to 10.6.8 system started to hang periodically after resuming from sleep. Symptoms are that it stops responding to mouse (be it touch pad or USB mouse). Keyboard seems to be ok but system doesn't seem to be fully functional. I am able to ssh from the other computer and 'shutdown -r now' after reboot system seem to be ok until next resume from sleep. What interesting though is that this problem newer manifests then I am using external monitor.

Found problem. It was due to magic mouse that I left on. I carry this mouse in the laptop bag but rarely use it. Last time I used it (around the same time I install the update) I left it on in the bag. It was apparently disconnecting/connecting on its own and by some reason sometimes was breaking touch pad and other usb mouse connected to laptop, as soon as I switched magic mouse off broblem was fixed

X120E Touchpad inoperable after resuming from sleep

hello friends I'm a happy X120E user and a tech [pc's, mac's, lans, etc] - I do all sorts of tasks with my x120e and its been great. I recently "upgraded" my SSD so a fresh new install of Windows 7 was in order. After updating everything I have a problem I did not experience previously at all - not once in 3 years of use.
Upon resuming from sleep [and as far as I can remember this only occurs when resuming on battery], the touchpad/cursor is inoperable, frozen in the centered position, and I have found no way to 'wake' it. I finally have to shutdown/restart to get things functioning again. Keyboard works fine, but not touchpad or trackpoint [either/both].
maddeningly, its not consistent in this. sometimes it works, sometimes it does not.
I have seen the same issue with, and without, the supplied Lenovo Ultranav driver installed.
Question: in the X120E implementation, is the touchpad a PCI bus device or a USB device? I see no power plan options [i.e. "Advanced" >"Allow this device to wake the computer"] available via Device properties. There are no pointer/mouse/touchpad options whatsoever under Power Plan Settings.
Will Fn+F8 enable/disable the touchpad on this notebook? or,... should it?

No. Powering off and on again didn't work. My drive is a Seagate 750GB internal SATA drive in a Vantec NexStar-3 external enclosure. I don't think it is a driver issue. After the device removal error it won't mount on my PC or my Mac via FireWire or USB.
What I need to know is if there is some way to connect to the drive and make it mount with other software, using some kind of keystroke during startup, or maybe through terminal or something. I can't even try to repair the drive because it won't show up in disk utility.

Airport no longer works after resuming from sleep

I got a new MacIntel a month or so ago, and it has always done this, under 10.4.4 and now 10.5.5
When resuming from sleep, airport shows full strength for second, then the signal disappears. NOTHING in settings, reconnecting etc will get it to work again. (this is 'deep' sleep, not just the display turning off)
If you restart (restart not shut down), then when it comes back, airport is just gone - even the menu bar indicator. The computer now thinks it has no airport installed at all. No matter how many times you restart, there is no longer any airport.
If you shut down, wait a minute and restart, it works as normal.
Since airport is the only way I connect to the network, and I don't want to waste electricity, this is unacceptable and clearly a flaw.
I called tech support and they had me move airport to the top of the list, delete plists and other stuff, none of which made any difference. I'm thinking this is a low level system software fault, and I hope I don't have to take it back for a motherboard replacement.

I also have this problem, although, not very often.
I'm still running 10.4.4. This never happened with
prior versions. Rebooting is the only way to
correct the problem. Simply turning off Airport and
turning it back on does not help.
Thats interesting actually because I Never had any trouble on my G5 iMac of otherwise identical specification, on on intel. Hmm. I was thinking this was an intel issue.
Wonder if its a hardware problem (though I suspect not).

Crashes when resuming from sleep.

I just bought my macbook 6 days ago. Occasionally, upon opening the macbook it will not be resuming from sleep but the OS will actually be rebooting itself. This happens very infrequently. In the 6 days I've been using it (and I've been using it a lot) I've only noticed this happening twice. Though this is my first Mac, I am by no means a computer novice and I'm sure I'm not shutting down the OS, especially since I didn't have to press the power button to turn it back on. Is this something I should be concerned about? Or is it just one of those rare quirks I have to live with? Any input is appreciated. Thanks!

It really shouldn't reeboot from scratch when just waking from sleep!
The only time it would, is if the battery power drained completely before re-charge (even while sleeping), or if it was actually shut down purposely/accidently.
Quick question: assume you are just closing your macbook to put to sleep? Not pressing pressing power button or selcting sleep in the finder? Although you can use both the latter, they do offer opportunity to shut down 'accidently'.
Only other though; Check the following: "System Preferences"/Energy Saver/Sleep-Schedule (=button bottom right) , here you can set scheduled start up and wake options... by default they would not be activated.
If all above is as suggested then I suspect a problem.

Resume from sleep causes total Interent connectivity loss

This just started happening about a week ago. I used to be able to close the lid on my iBook, open it later and resume working online normally. Now when I open the lid or resume from sleep mode, the airport shows that it is connected, but I have no Internet access (server not found messages). I've tried turning the Airport off and on, but this doesn't seem to fix the issue. I have to totally restart the iBook to regain any Internet connectivity. Any ideas if this is due to a recent update? Anyone else having this problem? The most recent update I remember install was one for MS Office 2004, but it's not just affecting Entourage, no Interent apps will connect after sleeping.

Hi Kib,
I've had the same exact problem intermittently for the entire time i've owned my ibook (1 year). The problem was intermittent enough that I never took it too seriously. But, just this morning it would appear my internet connection is permanently gone. No amount of restarting or renewing the DHCP will work. And, as in your case, airport indicates that it is "connected". Seems like a degenerative condition. I'm going to call apple and get some help. I just got apple care and I'm going to take full advantage of it, especially after all the trouble i had with my ibook display.

Minor lag from GUI when resume from sleep

Hey people!
I've been on archlinux for a couple of months now and I have fixed bugs here and there but something I have just noticed yesterday (it would happen before but I couldn't say when it would occur) is that after my system resume from sleep (it's not slow, it takes 1 or 2 secs) gnome GUI is a bit slow and it doesn't stop till I reboot my pc (it doesn't occur until my pc resumes from sleep).
It's not that bad but quite annoying. I don't really know how to approach that kind of problem. I think it would be related to something like "gnome is not completly reloaded when resume from sleep and there are some infinite loop going on"...
I hope someone has a clue in here!

hey, sorry to revive an old thread, but this was the only other person I could find with this issue.
I had originally reinstalled power manager and the the pm driver because it wouldn't save any custom power settings. When I finally got it working, it wouldnt wake up from sleep just like the above user's issue.
Machine is relatively new win7x64 install with all updates (lenovo updates too) installed.
Would like to avoid a total reinstall if at all possible.

T61p: Vista - BSOD when resume from sleep / hibernate, casued by classpnp.sys

I've got a T61p (Type: 6457) with preinstalled Vista, later upgraded with SP1. Everything worked like a charm, untill a week or so, when the BSOD appeared when either resuming from sleep or hibernation.
I've checked the minidump, and it seems as the classpnp.sys is causing the trouble, however, I've yet not found a good solution to fix the problem (I'm close to doing a restore to factory install, but would like to avoid if possible
Anyone?

There's an issue with your GPU, video driver or both...try running this for a while:
http://freestone-group.com/video-card-stability-test.htm
If there's an underlying problem, this test will reveal it. And when I say "a while" I mean for an hour or more...
Please be advised that if your GPU is on its way out (I've had them fail on T60p due to VRAM corruption) this test might just finish it and push it over the edge. Proceed at your own risk.
Good luck.
