Satellite P100 will not stay in hibernate mode

Hi everyone~
Satellite P100
Vista
Before going to bed I always put my computer in hibernate mode. It won't stay in hibernate mode. I'm not talking about sleep mode here.
I click the start button then choose hibernate. It goes into hibernate and I go to bed so I don't know when it goes out of hibernate mode.
I used to have to press the power button to get it up and running after it went into hibernate. Along the front of the computer are 5 blue lights. I will call them a,b,c,d, and e.
d&e are generally off when I'm using the computer.
a, b, and c are lit up when I'm on the computer. When it goes into hibernate mode b goes out.
When I get up in the morning a,b and c are all back on and all I have to do is move my mouse around then log on instead of first pressing the power button.
I have some scheduled tasks but I've always had those.
Please help. Is there a setting I can do to take care of this issue? TIA

  • Satellite A660 does not go into hibernate mode

    My machine Satellite A660 no longer goes into hibernate mode. The action button is there and the screen goes blank but it goes no further. Sleep and shut down still operate OK.
    I tried everything I can see on Windows site to no avail.
    If anyone can help would be appreciated,
    Jeff

    Hi
    So new OS installation did not fix this?
    Strange!
    Try this:
    Type in Start menu: CMD and then hit Ctrl + Shift + Enter to open the Command Prompt with Admin rights.
    Now black DOS window should open.
    Now type: powercfg /hibernate on
    Then type: exit to leave the box
    Then type Power Options in Start menu and hit enter.
    Now choose the power plant you are using and click on Change plan settings
    Now choose Change Advanced Power settings.
    Then choose Sleep and choose ON for Allow hybrid sleep
    Now you should see in Start menu new Hibernate entry.
    This should help you to use hibernation mode.

  • TS3402 iMac with OS X 10.8.4 will not stay in sleep mode.

    After installing latest OS updates, 10.8.4,  we cannot get our iMac to stay in sleep mode.  Energy saving settings have computer sleep and display sleep set to15 minutes, put hard disks to sleep when possible and allow power button to put to sleep are selected.  Wake for network is not selected.  Also allow bluetooth devices to wake computer is not selected. We are using Time Machine using a USB connected seagate disk, USB connected keyboard and bluetooth mouse.  Sleep mode worked before applying latest OS update to 10.8.4 level, which was the only recent change. Now, if put to sleep, monitor goes black for a few seconds then back on.  Appears that something that I haven't identified wakes it up.

    The solution was found in another post.  The suggestion made by marks33 says: 
    My computer would not stay in sleep mode either since update Mac OS 10.8.4 and I tried resetting the SMC.
    Resetting SMC:
    Shut down the computer
    Unplug the power cord and ALL peripherals (mouse, keyboard + ethernet cable also)
    Wait 20 seconds
    Attach power cable and wait another 10 seconds
    Press power button
    Attach all other cables after desktop appears.
    Try it if you haven't already. It cured the sleep issue on my iMac.

  • Mac will not stay in sleep mode

    My IMac running system 10.5.8 will not remain in sleep mode. I have tried closing all running applications and this makes no difference. After restarting the computer it seemed to function correctly for a short time then once again would not remain in sleep mode. The energy saver has no wake options set.

    Here are 3 shots...of course things keep moving but I think I got most off.

  • Satellite P100 will not power up or has blank screen

    So I have this laptop that has failed me about 4 months ago. Will not power on anymore. I can press the start button and it sounds like its working but there is nothing on the screen. I can hear the fan every now and again and then a beep after about 1 min after "start up" but screen looks dead. Nothing appears on screen at all.
    I've tried the powering on with and without the battery.
    My laptop use to get very hot and freeze as far as I remember.
    I've replaced my Toshiba with other notebook but if my Satellite is not gonna work again is there a way I can get files off there still?
    Thanks for your help.

    Hi
    > I've replaced my Toshiba with other notebook but if my Satellite is not gonna work again is there a way I can get files off there still?
    You need the data and files from the internal HDD?
    You could access the data connecting the P100 HDD as an external USB HDD to the other computer.
    You could remove the HDD from the P100 and could insert it into a external USB caddy
    I think the HDD supports the SATA interface so you have to look for SATA USB caddies
    Regarding the P100 issue;
    Well it seems to be a hardware problem We can speculate only about the kind of malfunction but for me it looks like a serious issue
    The best is to get in contact with an notebook technician and to check the single parts
    Good luck

  • Ipod with sad face and will not stay in disk mode but hdd works

    Hi,
    I've got a problem with my ipod and i've tried everything to fix it and nothing works.
    So basically after my ipod gave me the sad face I tried putting it into disk mode and that worked successfully! However after I plugged it to my computer, it would (after a few moments and windows detects something being plugged in) it resets itself and gives me the sad face again and following that a sign comes up saying Please Wait Very Low Battery.
    I know its not a low battery problem since during disk mode the battery is full.
    Other strange things is that in Diagnostics mode the HDSpecs section just shows just a bunch on meaningless characters and numbers for each of the specs listed. I thought that this may have just meant I had a broken harddrive so i got one of those ipod harddrive to IDE converters and plugged by ipod harddrive in (yes i now have opened the ipod). Strangely enough the ipod hard drive appears on my computer and works beautifully and i can read and write to the drive.
    I went though the forums and found someone with the exact same problem and was solved:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=7244984&#7244984
    However the person never said how they solved it except that they followed the guide posted by Mitch 751 which I also tried to no success.
    Does anyone have any ideas what else I can try?
    Cheers,
    Victor

    same problem mate ???

  • Can't get online. Error message says current status is "offline." I uncheck "offline" in the File Menu but it goes back offline again immediately and will not stay in online mode..

    '''bold text'''

    Thanks for the response. Unfortunately, things have gotten progressively worse now in another direction. After I posted this, I shut down my computer to go to work. It had to "rebuild" the filevault sparseimage to recover space.
    Now when I restarted it, I am missing things from my dock, ? marks are in their place, all of my preferences have been set to some default AND this is the biggie - I have no mail accounts whatsoever. When I click on Mail, it asks me if I want to establish a new account. It looks like the FileVault action has totally screwed up my system.
    I tried rebuilding the permissions as recommended above using safe boot. Didn't help. I am now trying to repair the FileVault sparseimage as recommended elsewhere. I think I now see what the problem might be. I have two different sparseimages for the same account with the only difference is that a 1 is appended to the second one. Unfortunately I can't tell which it is. I have a feeling I should repair the 1st one (without the suffix 1). It must not be able to open that and hence that is why it made a second one.
    Any other help anyone?

  • Will not stay in sleep mode

    Using 10.6.7 on a 27" iMac. In the last couple of days, when I put it to sleep using the apple icon, it wakes up after about 5 seconds. No big changes or new software. Repaired permissions. Any thoughts on how to fix the issue would be appreciated.

    Unplug everything from the iMac except the original keyboard and mouse.
    If this stops the problem, then one of your external peripherals is to blame.

  • I asked this about a week ago and didn't get any replies.. Please help.. My macbook will not stay on unless plugged in...

    My macbook will not stay on without being plugged in. I had my macbook for about 3 years and the battery had less than 200 cycles on it and the computer suddenly would not stay on unless plugged in (went from holding about 1.5 hr charge to not holding charge at all). I purchased a new battery and this battery has 118 cycles on it. It is doing the same thing. When I unplug it the computer shuts off immediately. It will not stay in sleep mode either. What should I do? I assumed that it was because I tend to leave the computer plugged in so that the cycles stay low, but after only 118 cycles? (and the new battery is less than 8 months old). Could my computer be failing to register the battery? Please help me - I don't want to have to spend another $80 on a battery. (Just so you know, I have removed the battery and made sure the connection is good but this did not help.)

    If your problems with the new battery are the same as the old battery, it would seem your Mac isn't charging the battery properly.
    Perhaps it's a Magsafe/charger issue.
    Read through the power section of this User tip here, try everyting, including the SMU Reset and see if that makes any difference.

    We can't do too much more than that as it seems to be a hardware issue and we can't fix that too much.

  • Toshiba Satellite Laptop - Will Not Boot, Safe Mode Not Accessible

    Hi everyone, thanks in advance for your help.
    I am trying to help my mother-in-law (I know, who does that!?) with her laptop. Because of the boot problems, I can only offer you limited info on the specs, but here is what I do know.
    Toshiba Satellite
    Model Number PSAE6C-TJ908C
    2 Gig RAM (assuming DDR2)
    HDD is a Toshiba MK2035GSS 200Gig
    OS Windows Vista
    Bios Version 2.60
    Problem:
    First it would boot ok in one user account, but when booted in secondary account it would act odd, ie caps lock stayed on when not pressed, etc. Deleted secondary account, ran Windows repair function, now I cannot access the primary account, will not boot in safe mode, can not change boot sequence in setup to boot from cd or run restore disc. I have to use an external keyboard as the laptop keyboards enter key and "a" keys do not work. (New keyboard which was replaced in December, warranty has since run out, thank you Staples.)
    Any and all help greatly appreciated. I'll answer any other questions you have as they come up, I realize I may have left out some key details.
    I forgot to add a couple of details. When booting, it hangs at the Toshiba screen prompting for either F2 for setup or F12 for boot device selection, when you reach the log in screen it gives a number of odd sounding beeps (3 I believe), the Filter Keys box comes up, and when you try to enter the login password it will not recognize it.

    That's one sick laptop. If the thing beeps on startup and even the keyboard doesn't work, I'd figure on replacing it.
    Are there important files you need to rescue?

  • I've installed Mavericks on my Mac Pro. It works well, generally, but will not stay sleeping! Pressing the power button twice sometimes extends the sleep mode but even that seldom results in a full overnight sleep.  File sharing off. What else can help?

    I've installed Mavericks on my Mac Pro. It works well, generally, but will not stay asleep! Pressing the power button twice sometimes extends the sleep mode but even that seldom results in a full overnight sleep.  File sharing off. What else can help?

    Hi fremley,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    This article may be helpful with determining why your Mac Pro doesn't stay in sleep mode:
    Mac OS X: Why your Mac might not sleep or stay in sleep mode
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1776
    Some things reset the sleep timers, preventing the computer from sleeping:
    Hard drive access (even if you're not using the computer, a running application might be accessing your drive, such as when downloading a large file or listening to music in iTunes)
    Moving the mouse or using a portable Mac's trackpad, pressing a mouse button, or pressing a key on the keyboard
    Some System Preferences settings (see below)
    Open applications (see below)
    Input devices (see below)
    Expansion cards (see below)
    Additional drives, such as USB, FireWire, DVD, or CD drives (see below)

  • Why will my Mac 8,1 intel desktop not stay in sleep mode for more than 5 seconds?

    Why will my Mac 8,1 intel desktop not stay in sleep mode for more than 5 seconds?
    Have tried repeatedly and end up shutting down instead of "sleeping:.

    Hello, most usually it's some USB device causing that, but...
    One way to test is to Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, Test for problem in Safe Mode...
    PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive
    Reboot, test again.
    If it only does it in Regular Boot, then it could be some hardware problem like Video card, (Quartz is turned off in Safe Mode), or Airport, or some USB or Firewire device, or 3rd party add-on, Check System Preferences>Accounts (Users & Groups in later OSX versions)>Login Items window to see if it or something relevant is listed. Or an errant process eating up RAM.
    Check the System Preferences>Other Row, for 3rd party Pref Panes.
    Also look in these if they exist, some are invisible...

    LG Enact:  My camera mode setting will not stay at SPORTS.  It keeps jumping back to NORMAL.  Need help.

        Geo0319,
    Let's get you snapping those sports moments. Does any other camera mode stay on consistently or do you have to change it everytime. It sounds like it will allow you to take one photo and then it reverts back to normal.

  • After updating to 10.10.3, now my Macbook Pro will not stay logged in. I log in after restarting, and it will stay logged in for 3-5 seconds then immediately log off and go back to the login screen. Any help?

    After updating to 10.10.3, now my Macbook Pro 15" (mid-2014) will not stay logged in. I log in after restarting, and it will stay logged in for 3-5 seconds then immediately log off and go back to the login screen. Any help?
    By the way, I also updated my Macbook Pro 17" (mid-2009) and it seems to be running fine, though I haven't tried to restart it and log in. I'm afraid I won't be able to get this one to work either if I do.

    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, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    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 login 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 the test.
