Several minutes until usable after wake from sleep

This problem has been dogging me since before Mavericks. My admin account (other accounts do not have this problem) can take up to five minutes to become fully usable. Some apps seem to work, others give me spinning beach ball. The network (wireless or ethernet) is included in the slow start. I have scoured these discussions, tried to compare Console logs and even gone to the Genuis bar for help (the recommended deleting bezel services which does not help). Once it wakes up fully the system seems to work just fine. Does anyone have an idea of what might be causing this?

Some of your user files (not system files) have incorrect permissions or are locked. This procedure will unlock all your user files, reset their ownership, and remove their access-control lists. If you've set special values for those attributes, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
Back up all data.
Step 1
If you have more than one user, and the one in question is not an administrator, then go to Step 2.
Enter the following command in the Terminal window in the same way as before (triple-click, copy, and paste):
{ sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR..; sudo chown -R $UID:staff ~ $_; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_; chmod -R -N ~ $_; } 2>&-
This time you'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The command may take several minutes to run, depending on how many files you have. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2 (optional)
Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1, if you prefer not to take it, or if it doesn't solve the problem.
Boot into Recovery. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open. In that window, type this:
res
Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
resetpassword
Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not  going to reset a password.
Select your startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
Select
 ▹ Restart
from the menu bar.

  • Left USB-Port dead after wake from sleep. Just restart helps.

    I hoped Apples keyboard-Update today would solve my biggest hate-bug in this buggy POS called Leopard. It didn't.
    As usual on my Leopard-Macbook Pro, no device will work on the left USB-Port after I waked the computer from sleep. Just a restart helps. I hoped this update to solve this, because it replaced among others "IOUSBFamily.kext".
    Terminal gives a timeout error for the internal USB-Hub after wake from sleep. I assumed this should be related.
    I'm really angry now.
    When will Apple solve the most urgent problems in Leopard?
    Was 10.5.1 just smoke and mirrors to make (fool people into...) people upgrade who intended to wait until the first maintenance-update?
    Was Leopard Apples attempt to make Windows-Users more comfortable by putting in some heavy extra-bugs and blue screens?
    FIX IT FINALLY! And f... don't wait for Macworld to release 10.5.2. It's desperately needed and the current state of Leopard will leave some people very sad at christmas after getting their first Mac. First impression counts and many more peoples first contact with the Mac will be at christmas...

    Apple knows the problem and for some reason they are stumped on fixing it. this is so bad I can't believe it. On my macbook pro with Leopard installed, USB left port is dead after sleep. Only restarting can power it back up. I have to restart every day to use my external hard drive for time machine or when putting my flash drive in the port.
    Come on already Apple. This is a SERIOUS, SERIOUS problem.
    Fix it.

  • BUG: Sandisk USB flash drive in "half-mounted" state after wake from sleep

    My Sandisk Cruzer Crossfire 4GB Flash Drive is left in a half-mounted state after wake from sleep. The Finder believes the drive is still mounted, the icon is on the Desktop. However opening a file on the drive, or trying to eject the drive, results in a long beach ball, followed by a message that I removed the drive without Ejecting it first. The same drive continues to work fine on my Tiger machine, and on PCs.
    Bug Report:
    Setup:
    Macbook 1st Gen (2.0 Ghz)
    Mac OS X Leopard 10.5 Clean Install
    Sandisk Cruzer Crossfire 4GB USB Flash Drive (in either port)
    Repro:
    Plug in the drive.
    Close the MacBook to put it to sleep
    Reopen the MacBook
    Result:
    The lights on the flash drive never light back up after wake from sleep. Navigating the drive, or trying to eject it results in a "you removed the device without ejecting it first" message.
    Expected:
    Drive should still be mounted and accessible after waking back up.

    It may be a design flaw in the device. Mac OS X does a lot more power management than most other OSes, including tearing devices down to little or no power during sleep. It is possible that the device simply misbehaves due to corrupted memory state or reports a substantially different GUID or something similarly bizarre upon wake. (Okay, that last one wouldn't technically be a power management issue....)
    If it doesn't have any problems except when sleeping the system, I would just make sure I unmounted it before putting the machine to sleep and wouldn't worry about it. Maybe check with Sandisk to see if they have a firmware updater for the device.

  • USB mouse freezes after wake from sleep.

    Since the 10.8.2 update my Logitech USB mouse freezes after waking up the computer from sleep or when it goes into energy save from non use. This also happens to my brand new MBPR. I tries repair permissions and reset the smc. Any suggestions?

    I get a frozen mouse (Microsoft Intellimouse Optical) on my 2012 Mac Mini running Mavericks (it did it with Mountain Lion also) when waking from sleep about 75% of the time which works again if I unplug/replug it (light is on and mouse buttons work when it's frozen, but the pointer won't move).  It does this whether I use a built-in USB3 port, a USB2 hub and now also with my new USB3 hub. 
    However, my 2008 Macbook Pro also has an Intellimouse connected to it when docked and it NEVER freezes when waking from sleep whether using the built-in USB2 port or a Gmyle USB3 card port.  Either way, the mouse wakes fine and it's the SAME MODEL MOUSE and SAME OSX verison.  I have no idea why the inconsistency.  It ***** because "Wake on Network Activity" FINALLY works right here in Mavericks with XBMC on my Mac Mini so there's a perfect opportunity to save some electricity.  I got excited when it woke up two times in a row with 10.9.1 and set up my sleep controls only to find it wouldn't go to sleep with the Energy Savings menu because I have an external USB3.0 3TB media drive connected (at all times).  I finally found out (through more patient testing) that once the drive spun down (possibly on its own power saving timer as I'm not sure the "Shut down hard drives when possible" setting works in Mavericks; it was messed up in Mountain Lion in 10.8.4 and even though 10.8.5 fixed it, I'm not sure Mavericks is using the same code.  It doesn't seem to shut down any faster with or without the setting on and shuts off several minutes after the computer attempts to go to sleep (on a 1 minute test setting; I think WD defaults to 10 minutes in firmware). 
    Anyway, once that was resolved and I saw it would go to sleep eventually once the drive spun down (it will sleep instantly if I select SLEEP from the Apple menu which I find odd if it's such a big deal that it's connected....), I thought OH BOY!  I'm all set.  Then I woke it from that sleep and found my mouse was frozen again..... :-(  What a PITA to unplug/plug the mouse every time it wakes from sleep.  It's not worth it.  I'll just have to pay the extra few bucks in electricity each month I could have saved to avoid such a freaking nightmare hassle.  Why on God's Green Earth, Apple CANNOT or WILL NOT fix their darn energy savings features is just beyond me.  Instead of spending all their time making horrible horrible ugly icon/GUI updates to iOS and making it slower and slower and slower, why don't they actually fix some darn bugs in OSX for once in their lives.... I'm starting to think I should give Windows another chance I'm so annoyed right now.  But then I think about having to run a malware program and have that program update and Windows software/security updates 3x a day and I think I can just deal with the Mini not sleeping.....
    I'd like to know why Apple couldn't figure out those of us with multiple monitors would want a dock on BOTH monitors all the time either (first side-mount docks wouldn't migrate and now in 10.9.1, bottom-mounted docks won't migrate here either, leaving a dock on one monitor all the time and if that's the monitor that is showing full-screen video, you lost your dock completely while the video is playing.  They finally figured out after a full decade that having a menu bar on both screens would be a good idea, but it just didn't occur to them that the same is true of the dock.  How much are they paying these guys?  Too much apparently (or is it too little to attract talented thinkers? Nah, it couldn't be since we give them feedback and they just ignore it).

  • 10.9.4 update causing internet browsing errors after wake from sleep

    Macbook Pro Late 2011, OS X 10.9.4
    So before the 10.9.4 update, I had no problems with Wifi and wake from sleep.
    Now, after the update, random web pages either don't load (Chrome & Firefox) or return a "Memory Not Allocated" error (Safari). Also, my Work VPN application stops being able to connect.  The related Console error is:
    acvpnagent[104]: Function: getInterfaces File: ../../vpn/Common/Utility/NetInterface_unix.cpp Line: 1277 missing PPP destination address for interface "utun0"
    The only solution I've found is restarting.
    Any ideas?

    Remove the Cisco VPN client. Use the built-in client, if possible.
    Any third-party software that doesn't install by drag-and-drop into the Applications folder, and uninstall by drag-and-drop to the Trash, is a system modification.
    Whenever you remove system modifications, they must be removed completely, and the only way to do that is to use the uninstallation tool, if any, provided by the developers, or to follow their instructions. If the software has been incompletely removed, you may have to re-download or even reinstall it in order to finish the job.
    I never install system modifications myself, and (unless otherwise specified in this comment) I don't know how to uninstall them. You'll have to do your own research to find that information.
    Here are some general guidelines to get you started. Suppose you want to remove something called “BrickMyMac” (a hypothetical example.) First, consult the product's Help menu, if there is one, for instructions. Finding none there, look on the developer's website, say www.brickmymac.com. (That may not be the actual name of the site; if necessary, search the Web for the product name.) If you don’t find anything on the website or in your search, contact the developer. While you're waiting for a response, download BrickMyMac.dmg and open it. There may be an application in there such as “Uninstall BrickMyMac.” If not, open “BrickMyMac.pkg” and look for an Uninstall button. The uninstaller might also be accessed by clicking the Customize button, if there is one.
    Back up all data before making any changes.
    You will generally have to restart the computer in order to complete an uninstallation. Until you do that, there may be no effect, or unpredictable effects.
    If you can’t remove software in any other way, you’ll have to erase and install OS X. Never install any third-party software unless you're sure you know how to uninstall it; otherwise you may create problems that are very hard to solve.
    WARNING: Trying to remove complex system modifications by hunting for files by name often will not work and may make the problem worse. The same goes for "utilities" such as "AppCleaner" and the like that purport to remove software.

  • Bluetooth devices lagging after wake from sleep sometimes.

    I have the Apple bluetooth keyboard, magic mouse, and magic trackpad. All batteries are charged and I have tried others by the way. This issue only happens sometimes, as it has happened before, but stopped for a few months, and now happened again tonight. What is happening is that my laptop (macbook late 2009 with  mac os x 10.7.2) wakes from sleep (all default energy saver settings set and I am able to wake the macbook with any of the bluetooth devices), and my bluetooth devices mentioned above are laggy for about 15-45 seconds. What i mean by laggy is that when moving the mouse across the desk after the login screen is already fully loaded, it jumps and is clearly not tracking like it usually does. The bluetooth trackpad and keyboard experience this same issue.
    Now the thing that leads me to believe it's bluetooth or software is that my macbook's built in keyboard and trackpad do not lag and function correctly as soon as the computer is woken from sleep and prompts me with my login screen. This also leads me to assume that it's not my computer running slowly or having too many processes or not enough memory. This problem happens even if I have no programs running (other than OS X's default processes). I have taken my macbook into the Apple genius bar thinking it was a bluetooth hardware issue, but they ran checks and confirmed that it was not and obciously, we could not get the issue to reproduce their at that time. I would love to hear from anyone who has experiecned this before, or is currently. We need to get Apple's attention with this issue because they have not listened to me when I submit a feekback form. This has been happening since 10.7.0 by the way. Thanks and happy holidays.

    I've got what sounds like the same problem with my new unibody MacBook Pro.
    I've had the problem with both 10.6.1 and 10.6.2.
    I also find that a reboot fixes things. In my case, I can sleep/wake multiple times with
    no problem, but once the BT goes unresponsive upon wake, every subsequent sleep/wake
    will suffer the problem until I next reboot.
    I also discovered that in my case I can re-pair the non-responsive devices (two flavors
    of Logitech mice and an Apple wireless keyboard) while in sick-BT mode and they will
    work until I next sleep/wake, whereupon they will again fail to connect and my
    choice is either to re-pair yet again, or reboot and have the problem go away, at least
    for awhile.

    it down definitively. I have one or two data points that make me suspect it goes south
    after I use VMware Fusion (Version 2), but I cannot yet rule that one completely in or out.

  • Bluetooth Unresponsive After Wake from Sleep

    I have an issue where when my macbook pro wakes from sleep, the bluetooth mouse will not connect, and BT becomes unresponsive. Sometimes I can turn bluetooth off then back on and be OK, BUT 95% of the time, I have to restart the computer to get bluetooth back.
    After waking, the BT appears to be on, I get the popup on the screen which tells me "connection lost" with a picture of a mouse. I can open BT preferences and turn BT off, but nothing happens. I can even recheck "on" but it is completely unresponsive.
    Things tried:
    Allow BT to wake this computer is UNCHECKED
    in activity monitor I have forced quit BLUED, but BT does not come back.
    I have trashed the BT preference file Mac HD/library/preferences/com.apple.bluetooth.plist
    I have reset SMC and PRAM
    Tried a Logitech V470 and mighty mouse
    Fresh install of 10.6.0, then upgraded to 10.6.1, then 10.6.2 (using combo)
    Tried disabling steermouse, fresh batteries, holding my mouth right...
    When the BT is not responding, the BT name either changes to 2.2.4f3 (which is the Apple BT software version), or it says "name not available".
    Also in system profiler, when BT is not responding the BT "Hardware settings" section is missing. It starts with "services".
    This is driving me crazy. Could this be hardware related? I feel it is more software, since on restart, the BT mice pair perfectly and work great. The never randomly disconnect.
    This issue only happens when the computer resumes/wakes from sleep.
    Everyone please provide feedback. I am the only one with this issue? I have scoured the net, and find very little regarding this exact issue. I am within my 90 days from buying, should I call Applecare or is it a waste of my time?
    Thanks for your help,

    This causes problems for IPv4 as well because apps like Firefox and Safari try using the IPv6 DNS servers and give up before falling back to the IPv4 servers.  So this problem breaks more than IPv6.
    Is this a bug or do I have something misconfigured?
    Thanks.
                                   --Tom

    I see this (sort of) behaviour as well. When I look into the tcp/ip tab of the network (system prefs) I see
    fe80::1:1 as router, that is why v6 stops working. After turning v6 off and on again the correct router IP appears.
    NB. this is on wifi

  • Finder stall after wake from sleep w/USB flash drive mounted

    Has anyone else experienced this? iMac works flawlessly while USB flash drive is mounted UNTIL iMac sleeps. Then as soon as the iMac wakes from sleep the finder is non-responsive (perpetually spinning beach ball) and other apps slow to a crawl and become non-responsive as well if they need the finder (i.e. to save, etc.). This only happens when the USB flash drive is mounted.
    Trying to force quit (relaunch) the Finder does not work, I always have to perform a hard restart.
    I have an external FireWire hard drive that works beautifully and does not cause these same symptoms.
    Any ideas?

    umm.. don't let the computer go to sleep with your jump drive connected? The mac will usually take a few seconds to get his gear together after waking up from a sleep sounds like he is having to gather additional things since the jump drive is in there. I don't have a REAL solution except don't let Mr. Mac sleep with the jump inserted....

  • Mail unresponsive after wake from sleep.

    When my Retina Macbook Pro wakes from sleep, when i go to mail, it will often become unresponsive for a period of a few minutes - if i go and use safari/ other apps, it will normally resume normal use in its own time, alternatively, i must force quit and reopen to gain use of mail again.
    I cant think of any configuration changes which caused this problem to begin, not after any particular software update of anything, am running the most up-to-date version of Mountain Lion - is anyone else seeing this problem and have a solution?

    my problem on mail, is that sometimes when i quit it (cmd + Q) it will not quit. although the mail window is gone, but the app is still running in background. and i have to force close it only i can re-open it. and if i didn't force close it, i can't turn off my mac. using MBPr as well in Mountain Lion. really hoping for a solution to this problem.

  • Password not required immediately after wake from sleep

    Every once in a while when my retina macbook pro wakes from sleep I do no need to enter my password immediately.  Instead it just starts with no password required and then 5-10 seconds later it takes me to the lock screen and asks for my password.  Other times it will ask for my password, start up after its entered and then 5-10 seconds later it takes me back to the lock screen and asks for my password again.  Usually when it "takes me back to the login screen" it actually just makes the screen black until I press a key or move the mouse and then it "wakes up" again and shows the login screen.
    Also is it common for it to hang for a while before allowing me to type my password after waking from sleep?  Frequently it will take 10+ seconds before I can start typing in the password field or the clock updates etc.  Its a 2.3ghz core i7 with 16GB of ram.
    I have installed all updates and it should be noted that I do have the "require password immediately after sleep or screen saver begins" option enabled in system preferences.

    Hi Kevin,
    You mention that you moved the TC's network up in priority, so you may have already done these things as well. Apologies in advance if that is the case.
    If you normally use your MBP with wireless, make sure that the AirPort connection is that top of the connections list in System Preferences > Network. Click on small gear icon at the bottom of list to put the Airport connection first in line to connect so the MBP will not look for an ethernet connection first.
    Click on the Airport connection to highlight it and then click Advanced. If you have other wireless networks that you can delete, use the - (minus) button to do so. Ideally, you'll only have a few networks displayed. Confirm that your wireless network name is first at the top of this network list.
    Make sure there is a check mark next to Remember Networks Joined. Leave the next two check boxes blank.
    Any help? My MBP connects consistently and quickly with these settings when the cover is opened.

  • Slow Wi-Fi Reconnect After Wake from Sleep (Macbook Pro Retina Mid 2012)

    Hello!
    I'm not sure if anyone has experienced this problem, maybe someone out there can help.
    The issue I'm having is with Wi-Fi taking a long time to reconnect after my Macbook Pro Retina wakes from sleep. Usually I need to go and reselet the network.
    I've gone through some trouble shooting forums and have had no success. I've tried turning off Wi-Fi and turning it back on after a couple minutes and it turns on right away.
    Has anyone experienced this problem?

  • Crashes after wake from Sleep after 10.8.1 update

    2.5 Ghz Mac Mini (mid 2011), 8 Gigs of RAM
    Since the day I upgraded to 10.8.1 I have had persistent crashes, 1 every 24 hours or so. It's always shortly after a wake from sleep. In all cases, it is impossible to switch to a random open application. But once I hit that application, no other application will respond to anything, including a Force Quit, or if it will force quit, it won't relaunch. A shut down will hang because an app refuses to quit. I can quit the Finder, but it won't relaunch. Have reinstalled Mountain Lion twice, zapped the PRAM, reset the SMC, checked and extensively tested the HD and RAM. Replaced RAM with original Apple RAM. Didn't help, so I swapped back to the RAM from Crucial. I can't think of anything else to try. Machine does not crash unless it has been asleep. Runs flawlessly when sleep is disabled. After a reboot (usually via a shut down via the power switch, start from scratch, check of the HD integrity, and then a clean restart) the machine will run fine, sleep and wake normally for about 24 hours. As near as I can tell from the logs, the hangs usually begin right after the Time Machine Backup after a wake from sleep finishes. If I don't allow the machine to sleep, there are no problems of any kind. Making me crazy. Did not occur under Lion or the .0 version of Mountain Lion. Is making me crazier than I normally am which is sorta serious.

    Any solutions to this problem?  I too have this kernel panic, however it only happens about once a week.  Always upon wake from sleep as you've indicated. 
    FYI I don't have intego software, or an APC installed.  Nor am I using filevault.
    This is on an up to date, MacBook Pro Retina.

  • External monitor flashes on and off randomly after wake from sleep

    I have a Mid-2009 13" MacBook Pro 2.26GHz hooked up to a Samsung SyncMaster 2033 External monitor via the MiniDisplayPort-DVI connector.
    After waking from sleep, the external monitor will go blank for a fraction of a second at random intervals (display on the MBP remains normal). The flickering clusters are about minutes apart, while flickers within a cluster (usually 2-3 flickers per cluster) is of order seconds apart. "Detect displays" will not make this go away. The only way I can make it go back to normal is to unplug-and re-plug the MiniDisplayPort connector on the MBP.
    Anyone else got a more elegant solution to this that does not involved wearing down the displayport?

    I tried this.  No change.  However, I did start playing with the Display settings.  Oddly enough, when I change the disfunctioning monitor to 720p it starts working again.  Does this mean anything to anyone?
