Sleep issues and Ethernet

On my fp iMac, running 10.4.11:
A relatively new (roughly the past ten days) issue has arisen. I think I've narrowed it down to when the machine is woken up from sleep. I can't get on the internet nor can I connect to my other two machines from the 'Go > Connect to Server ...' command. A restart seems to temporarily sort the problem out.
System Preferences exhibits odd behaviour when I go to the Network Pane while being cut of from the internet. This machine is connected to an Airport Extreme Base Station via Ethernet cable. In the Network Status window, the Ethernet button is red instead of green, and the following message is displayed:
+The cable for Built-in Ethernet is connected, but your computer does not have an IP address and is not connected to the internet.+
When I try and close the System Preferences window, I get the spinning beach ball. I have to use Force Quit twice in order to quit System Preferences. It's at this point I do a restart.
In the past week I've used OnyX, DiskWarrior (twice), I've shut down and unplugged the AEBS and the broadband modem overnight as well as shutting down the computer, and yesterday I reset the PMU - almost in desperation. Two days ago I downloaded and installed the 10.4.11 combo updater.
At present I've got the machine set to screen sleep only, no hard disk sleep.
When it was set with hard disk sleep as well, it seemed that all was well until a few hours of normal use (including being woken from sleep) had passed before the problem arose.
I might be wrong about sleep being an issue, but certainly the behaviour from System Preferences > Network is consistently the same.
Can anyone shed some light here?

Ok for the sleep issue the link from fishcomputer has some steps in for these type of issues but there something that more then likely is causing isssue with sleep.
I would try the following
Remove the powermanagement.plist located in mac hd/ library/ preferences/ systemconfiguration/com.apple.powermanagement.plist delete that then restart
For Microsoft issue i would try the following
Boot into safe boot by holding shift at startup until you see apple and gear may also see loading bar once in safe boot remove the following folders
MacHD/System/Library/Caches
MacHD/Library/Caches
User library Caches and cookies folder
Restart.
Since you are in lion you can't remove the folders from Hd need to just remove contents of the folder

Sleep issue and USB 2.0 card

I recently installed an Allego 2.0 USB card, recommended by Apple, into my G4 1.25 Dual. The card works great but now I cannot put the computer to sleep. Whether by button or command the monitor goes dark but the G4 is still awake plus I can't bring it back without a cold boot. Tech support said this was an issue, offered some tips and said if all fails get a different card. I bought Iomega's as an experiement and same problem! Anybody else have this issue and could you solve it?
Thanks.
Bill

Hi Joe,
Yes, my mac usually sleeps just fine. My own sleep is another issue but that is for another forum.
A couple of years ago I was on another forum and saw a post claiming a fully functional usb2 card for $9. I bought it and it worked slick as could be. It was a no name, no box, no instructions, bare card but the price was good and it came with a usb2 cable. I then posted as many times as I could to others about that site and the card. About a year later the link broke and I went back to the site. The had a card that looked the same, had the same chipset, and was the same price but the manufacturer had changed some components. The second card did not work as well as the first.
Since then the same thing has happened to all of the makers of usb 2 cards. Something on the card changes and breaks sleep. It's not your fault. It's not the vendor's fault, it is the manufacturers fault. By the way, the manufacturers are usually not the name you see on the box. Companies buy from a manufacturer and slap their lable on the box.
Keep trying and you will eventually find one.
One guy went so far as to pay Belkin extra money for one of the older cards but it worked.

More no sleep issues and sleep troubleshooting

My one year old 20" Intel iMac Core 2 duo has just started not scheduled sleeping (will sleep when directed though...you know what I mean)...this really makes me mad because it's so hard to fix. I had this happen on my old G5 iMac and it took a month and two visits to the Mac geniuses to figure out. Anyway here are the things I tried with direction from this board and an Apple CS rep. (still no joy):
-removed all USB and firewire devices except keyboard and mouse
-made sure bluetooth is turned off (i had a bluetooth mouse that used to wake up my old G4 iBook)
-made sure that windows sharing is off as well as printer sharing and personal file sharing (even though OSX is perfectly capable of sleeping with printer sharing and personal file sharing on while other computers are not connected. Not so with Windows file sharing on in my experience)
-internet sharing off
-reset PRAM
-reset SMU
-deleted cache
-repaired disk permissions
-booted from install disk and repaired disk (no repairs were necessary according to disk utility)
-trashed preferences file (ouch, this really ***)
-created new user account to test and still won't sleep
-booted in safe mode (sleep works!!!!! but only in safe mode)
These are the thing's I've tried...if there's anything any one can recommend on top of these please reply. Since this has been such a pervasive problem with non-laptop Macs I'd really love to see a troubleshooting flow chart for these sleep issues. I'd write it myself if I could get some guidance on which procedure to try first and so on...
Dennis (den.thed) seems to be the sleep guru. If you've got time to weigh in I'd appreciate it before I format my HD and start from zero day.

One thing that work for me was the following: I did all the hints possible but nothing worked until I decided to look at the Console logs, something was preventing the system from going to sleep, I looked at the logs and I had a repeating message: "com.apple.nis.ypbind: domainnname not set. aborting...throttling respawn:will start in 10 sec" it means its an active process. In fact there is a thread here that points toward this message. The message went away with the following fix: in Terminal I typed: sudo domainname example.com ,upon entering I noticed that the Console messages stopped immediately. So the next step was to observe if the computer would sleep on its own and YES it did.
So this may not fix your sleep issues if there is another process involved, but I think the symptoms are very similar. I have also read that some caches folders are corrupt (if upgrading from Tiger) and since repairing permissions is a whole 'nother story these may not be purged at all thus causing conflicting processes and misdirected maintenance scripts that run in the background. If anything new I will kee posting. hope it works

Sleep issues and strange message in console

Hi all,
For the last month or so, the only way to sleep my Mac Pro is via the apple menu, it won´t sleep automatically as programmed by system preferences. I have read other posts, and the only solution seems to be the use of PleaseSleep, right?
I also have this console message every time I wake the computer or display from sleep: "loginwindow[48]: in pamsmauthenticate(): Failed to determine Kerberos principal name"
Does anybody know if this could be related to the sleep issues?
Thanks in advance

Hello:
Your English is excellent...far better than some who claim it is their mother tongue
My answer was a bit flippant, sorry
I looked at my own logs after reading your last post. I note all sorts of incomprehensible (to me) messages - some indicating errors. I have no clue what the sandbox messages indicate.
The other problems could be caused by a number of things - including hardware problems.
You might try resetting the PRAM and SMC. Those are not cure alls, but they cannot hurt anything either.

Sleep issue and hard disk tick?

I have been noticing a single tick everytime i put my iMac to sleep manualy. Also a while after it does it again about twice in a row (maybe when it is done falling asleep completely? lol) Anyways, this bothers me since it is a brand new 27 inch iMac and I fear it has a hardware problem. I dont exactly know when it started, or even if it has been doing it a lot. But it came to my attention when i started diagnosing my computer on a dialy basis to make sure everything is ok. Now, I also have this problem with a WD Passport External HD. When I connect it to my iMac it recognizes it just fine, but sometimes out of nowhere it starts beeping and when I try to open it from the iMac, the beach ball starts spinning untill i eject it. Notice that this does NOT happen when i connect it to a windows computer. At least i havent noticed. And this is a little strange, but when i grab the HD and flip it, it STOPS beeping! and it goes on to do the usual time machine backup. I bring this issue up because i read somewhere that the external hd could be causing the tick as i put my iMac to sleep, and also because it bothers me how it only has happened to me in this iMac and not on my parents windows computer. Maybe a compatiibily issue? Also i would like to run a hardware test but I cant seem to find an option. Thanks everyone! I hope i can resolve my problem without having to take my computer to an apple store.

By the way, other than this two issues, my iMac seems to be completely fine, exept for the fact that when i wake the iMac from sleep it makes some type of humming noise as if it was booting up (someone tell me if this is normal) and it also tells me that it couldnt find my network but at the same time i go on safari and can use it just fine. Weird

Sleep issues and failure code 0x00000200 0x11000000

hi.
I was wondering if anyone could shed some light on this error please.
I tried to wake my imac tonight and I was unable to and had to hold the power button to restart the computer, I have notice in the console log this error in the log.
Sleep failure code 0x00000200 0x11000000, Previous Shutdown Cause: 3 and BSD root: disk0s2, major 14, minor 2.
Any ideas? I might have to start shutting down my imac in future despite clearing out the SMC the other day.
I am running 10.6.1 snow leopard

Thanks for the message. This has happened a couple of times but this only happens when I switch user and the click on the sleep button on the login window. However I am running a hardware test and the quick one came back all ok. I am now running an extented one and will report back.
If it is a memory error I will see a genius my imac is still in warranty I don't have AppleCare as I thought it was not worth it. I am thinking it might be a software bug like what was reported if you have the guest account And then finding all your files deleted.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Battery and Sleep issues. Is this "normal"?

Hey guys, ever since day 1 My new MBP has been experiencing the sleep issue where in sleep the battery would lose about 1-2%/hour. I would go to sleep with the battery at 100%, and wake up to only about 87%. Also, when it was new the battery had about 4650 for full charge capacity, now its showing only 4540 after 10 cycles!!! Is this normal? Please help my MBP is less than 2 weeks old I have owned the previous MBP model, and the battery life during sleep was considerably better than this, and also it took less time to charge the battery!
Charge Information:
Charge remaining (mAh): 3463
Fully charged: No
Charging: Yes
Full charge capacity (mAh): 4540
Health Information:
Cycle count: 10
Condition: Good
Battery Installed: Yes
Amperage (mA): 881
Voltage (mV): 12070
*I have also just updated the upgrade to 10.5.6. Will update and report if this will help with the sleep/battery issue.
Thanks for your help!

Reset the SMC (System Management Controller) and re-calibrate the Battery then see how it behaves ...

Macbook Pro and external monitor sleep issues.

I recently upgraded to a new 13 inch MacBook Pro to replace my previous one. With the upgrade, I'm now on the latest OS and I have a Thunderbolt instead of Mini-displayport output. I have a Dell U2410 monitor which has worked great up until now, but I now have the following behavior:
When the laptop sleeps (or puts the display to sleep) the monitor begins to turn on and off. It goes to powersave mode and immediately wakes up, realizes there's no signal, and goes back to powersave mode, etc etc etc.
When I wake the computer up from sleep, the monitor's behavior stays the same. The laptop never detects the display and begins sending a signal.
If I unplug and replug the adapter, all is well.
There seem to be two separate issues: whatever signal the computer continues to send down the display cable after sleep seems to confuse my monitor, secondly, the computer never again sends a real video signal down the line after it wakes up.
I'm on the latest 10.8.3. My adapter is the same adapter I have been using for years, an apple mini-display port to DVI adapter. Supposedly this adapter is still compatible with the Thunderbolt port.
I've seen lots of issues online about wake up issues with the latest OS. Is there a workaround for this yet or do I have to uplug my monitor anytime I sleep the computer?

Hi Steve,
I have had the exact same issues after adding a WD Thunderbolt Duo external drive to a Mid 2011 iMac and then daisy chaining the Dell U2410 monitor off that.
My Mini DP to DVI cable ceased working properly - sleeps issues.
After buying one of these adapters of Ebay:
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/3-in-1-Mini-Displayport-to-HDMI-with-audio-DVI-DP-ada pter-3in1-convertor-Macbook-/110861703462?pt=US_Audio_Cables_Adapters&hash=item1 9cfdf5926
I then tried all the different cables that came originally with the Dell U2410 with that adapter, and none of then would put the U2410 to sleep properly. The backlight would stay on, or "No Displayport Cable" would float around the Dell display with the backlighting still on. Or otherwise the Dell would try to go to sleep and then wake up again and cycle like you found.
Apples Mini DP to VGA adapter was sleep successful with the VGA cable (Analogue) but the output picture was not as sharp as DVI or Displayport, plus there was RF interference with the cable.
After lots of internet searching I have found a near perfect solution:
A HDMI to DVI cable with the HDMI end connected to the Ebay 3 in 1 adapter, which then connects to the Thunderbolt port.
Connect this to DVI-D 1 on the Dell U2410.
On the Dell in Menu - Other Settings, disable DDC/CI
Now in OSX Settings - energy Saver you will have to tick:
"Put Hard Disks to sleep where possible" and select a short time frame for "Computer Sleep"
I have found that the display would go black but the backlighting on the Dell U2410 would stay on, when the display went to sleep on the Mac as per the Energy Saver "Display Sleep" setting.
The backlighting on the Dell would only turn off when the time for 'Computer Sleep" has elapsed and the external Thunderbolt hard disk went to sleep as well.
The Dell U2410 would then wake up correctly as well when my iMac woke, with this setup.
Cheapest solution for you would be to try an Apple or Ebay HDMI to DVI adapter and then use the DVI - DVI cable that came with the Dell.
If that fails get the 3 in one Adapter and use my Mini DP/Thunderbolt to Ebay Adapter to DVI-DVI cable setup.
I'm assuming your new Macbook Pro comes with the HDMI port ?
I believe the Sleep Issues with this monitor are all related to appropriate signal on the cable, and only the HDMI to DVI solution will work correctly on Mac's connected to the Dell U2410.
Good Luck. :-)

I am having issues with MLBtv, when I switch on my ATV it no longer comes up as an option nor does vimeo or the iTunes store, i've tried resets etc and after those they appear. put the tav into sleep mode and mysteriously they don't re appear. Any ideas?

I am having the same issue but mine is with Netflix. And there are only 4 categories now on the main menue when there used to be 5. Something went crazy with ATV software.

Windows 8.1, secureboot and sleep issues

Hi,
I'm a technet subscriber so have access to Win8.1. Just tried it and ran into some issues which I think are bios related. (My motherboard is X79A-GD65 (8D) and I'm running bios 4.3.)
First when I installed Win8.1 a watermark is stuck on the desktop which says "SecureBoot isn't configured correctly" along with the build number, 9600.
So I went to bios and saw Windows 8 settings and enabled them, now the watermark is gone but there is not sleep option in windows (which I use alot)
going back to bios and disabling Win8 features brings sleep back but also the secureboot watermark......
Anyone else run into this?

I can't help with the SecureBoot issue. I have the same problem with my videocard not being SecureBoot compatible (A GTX 670). The sleep issue though, is it an issue with like... you can only hibernate, but you can't sleep? Windows 8 didn't come with that for me, but I found a work around.
Open a command prompt with administrator privilege and type: powercfg /hibernate off
This should change the hibernate to sleep.
If you want an icon for it just make a batch file: rundll32 powrprof.dll,SetSuspendState (0,1,0)
And if you need a timer on it (I use this pretty often myself) use this: powershell sleep <seconds> | rundll32 powrprof.dll SetSuspendState (0,1,0)
And if you're curious about the (0,1,0) thing. It's all boolean, so 1 or 0. (A,B,C), A: Hibernate, B: Critical (in XP/2003 it forces the sleep, but in newer versions it asks for permission to suspend), C: Disable wake event (Wake on LAN would be disabled if this were 1, for example).

Gateway MD2614u sleep issues

Hello all and greetings (my first post),
Hopefully this is the right section, I recently installed Arch onto a Gateway MD2614u laptop, it utilizes a Crucial MX100 256GB SSD as its boot drive. I am pretty sure I have the required tweaks for that completed.
Performance is exellent, 30sec bootup (about 25 after factoring in my password) and 6sec shutdowns.
However I am having issues with sleeping/suspending this laptop. It utilizes a HD Radeon 3200 as its IGP code number RS780. I am trying to utilize pm-utils to suspend and hybernate this laptop. If I use "sudo pm-suspend" it suspends successfully but when I resume it shows a blinking cursor at the top left and nothing else works (no caps lock or anything). I've used these links to attempt troubleshooting http://chriseiffel.com/everything-linux … 4-mint-11/
http://www.ubuntugeek.com/fix-for-suspe … ment-53547
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pm … leshooting
Not sure if this is related but I have calise running as a daemon in systemd it mentioned about pm-utils and I figured install that too. My desktop environment is Cinnamon (very much like win7 but far more customizable).
My system utilizes these modules: (from sudo lspci -v)

Sorry about the huge mess before, I thought the [spoiler] tags were what was needed.

Well, that last idea of mine didn't work. Unless I did something wrong in the script. Perhaps I can tweak the script mentioned in the ubuntu url in my first post to include more modules as a diagnosis step.
Will post back on the results.
---Edit---
Just tried this file from /usr/lib/systemd/system-sleep/ and it didn't work. I added some more modules to the list than were originally in the script.

SMB Direct connect Issues and error -36 (work around?)

I use the SMB command to connect from a Imac, to a Windows 7 machine.   Typically on a fresh restart of both machines the connection would be quick and fast transfer speeds.   However after a while I would get disconnected and after logging back in, would get slow connections and typically get an error -36 when trying to transfer bigger files.     What I did notice was that when the Windows machine would go to sleep, and come back online, these symptoms would occur.
What I decided to do, was turn off any type of sleep mode and power saving options on the network device. for the windows machine.   As naturally I would still get disconnected every once in a while, once I connect I do not have anymore issues.    This has worked now for the last couple of days, so I assume I can consider this a work around.
It seems that if the SMB connection gets disconnected from the other computer, the Mac will start giving errors.    I am not sure if this is really the mac issue, but this has only happened when I updated to Yosemite.
Let me know if anyone else has this problem, and has success with this solution.

If your MacBook is using wifi, connect your ATV to it using an Ethernet cable and turn on Internet sharing in the Sharing section of the System Preferences for the Ethernet NIC in the MacBook, then set up the ATV for a TCP/IP connection in the General -> Network section of the ATV Settings menu.

Macbook Pro, 10.5.7 sleep issues..

Hello Everyone,
Getting some very strange behavior with sleep in 10.5.7. After a fresh reboot, I put the MBP to sleep…Goes to sleep no problem, Wake it up, no problem. Leave it up for a few mins and put it back to sleep..The MBP does NOT go to sleep. Open the lid and find that it’s in a hung state. Drive is running, light in the front still on but no response. I can reproduce this over and over again. To make sure it’s not a hardware issue I did an Archive and Re-install and a full rebuild of OS X. Works just fine, multiple sleeps no problem. Seems to be an issue with 10.5.7.
Anyone else seeing this?
Ps. I have the Macbook Pro model just before the Unibody model.
K.

This problem does appear to be related to 10.5.7. A fresh install will usually take care of the problem, but updating to 10.5.7 seems to bring the problem back (indicating that the problem is due to 10.5.7). Your description seems to match exactly what is mentioned at the link before.
You can try out the fix found here (please post back if this works for you):
http://www.macfixit.com/article.php?story=20090518095106449
+*According to several reports around support forums and from e-mail correspondence from our readers, this issue appears to be related to the Ethernet settings on notebooks.*+
+*MacFixIt reader "Andreas S." reports:*+
+*"It appears that if the Ethernet is not enabled (airport only network settings) that on the MacBook Pro the sleep only works once and crashes the second time."*+
+*To re-enable the Ethernet port settings:*+
+*1. Open System Preferences > Network*+
+*2-1. If you see your Ethernet port in your list of network ports (on the left-side of the window) and it says "Inactive," activate the port by clicking the gear wheel icon and selecting "Make Service Active." Click "Apply."*+
+*2-2. If you do not see your Ethernet port in your list of network ports (on the left-side of the window), click the "+" button in the bottom-left corner.*+
+*3. In the "Interface" drop-down menu, select "Ethernet."*+
+*4. Enter a name and select "Create." You should see your new Ethernet connection appear.*+
+*5. Click "Apply."*+
+*Note: If you are having this issue and your Ethernet port is already enabled, try disabling it (using the gear wheel icon menu > "Make Service Inactive"). Log out or restart your Mac, then enable it. Be sure to "Apply" your changes.*+
+*Test your MacBook or MacBook Pro by closing the clamshell. Be sure to try this twice as most reports point to the second attempt at sleep as being the culprit for the freeze. If it does not work, try resetting your Mac and test again.*+

Weird problem--lost network connectivity wifi and ethernet. Intermittent

I'm posting to this board because my Time Capsule is my router and I suspect this is a router table issue since it affects both wifi and ethernet computers in my household. It only affects the two computers on 10.8.3 at the moment.
Either just after waking from sleep or after working for quite some time on either of these computers, web sites will stop loading. It gives an SSL error but they are not secure sites. Mail stops coming in as well. This is true for any browser. The network connections test as "green" with the built-in diagnostics tools. The only fix I have found is to either restart the machine or simply log out and log back in from the user account. It is very frustrating because we are often working in real-time online. Standard things we use that are affected are Google Docs for schoolwork etc. and my son's Minecraft playing. It is especially frustrating for him because he could be in the middle of a "project" with some of his friends online and this essentially crashes what they were doing.
I have called Apple but it is very hard to explain the issue in an effective manner.
Both machines are logged in as managed accounts but unrestricted access. I just don't like my primary account to be an admin account. I don't want my kids to install stuff without my permission and the managed user allows me to inspect the logs of sites they have visited at the system level, even if they turn on private browsing in Safari or incognito in Chrome.
Does anyone here have any ideas?

It is possible that I upgraded the firmware on the router right when I upgraded the machine to Mountain Lion but I really don't think I did that. I also have a version of the OLD airport utility so I can see the Time Capsule in much more detail.
Linda
If it hasn't reminded you to upgrade the firmware in the last day or so it is already on 7.6.3.. Apple stuff is very insistent on upgrades..
In the old utility (excellent) take it back to 7.6.1. And turn off weekly upgrade reminders.. this will reduce the instances of upgrade reminders to weekly instead of daily.

Mac book pro 10.5.7 sleep issue..... not even sydney genius bar can help me

ok hey guys, this is my first ever post on a support forum so please help me out!
I'll give any specific hardware info if needed later on but this is the basics:
i have had my mbp for over a year and 6months into it my mbp started going into sleep mode for no reason ...and no im not simple the energy settings are set to never sleep so its not that. Since then i have tried and tested everything under the sun to resolve the issue i have been to the genius bar and booked it in several times, each time they tell me they can not find any problem. I have had the logic board replaced - i have tried removing the p.list files, resetting pram thingy the battery test thing....everything...i have looked on endless forums for a resolution but nothing works!, it will go to sleep at random times generally when im doing alot of things on it it can run fine for days maybe sometime weeks but then its starts playing up again. When it does sleep the screen goes blank and the power light pulses but worst it cuts the internet connection which is terrible coz i have a time capsule and it cuts that link as well and messes that up entirely! sometimes it will just keep cutting out every 20-40 seconds untill i wake it by tapping the space bar or moving my mouse sometimes it just shuts down completely - i have done a compete erase & reinstall but ill b honest i still reinstalled some programs from my backups that cant be downloaded anymore (isquint etc) coz the genius guys said maybe a program is corrupting the hardware but if anyone has any ANY ideas or has the same problem please! tell me - im sure i could add more info n stuff but if u want 2 ask me specifics then i will answer anything to help
thanx again guys.
i should say at this point the only relief im getting to stop it from sleeping is if i disconnect the power adapter and use the battery that seems to stop it, but it has crashed(slept) on battery power as well but as of today doing this seems to help ....hasn't crashed since writting this! LOL

Has anyone got any assumptions on suspect software that may cause my problem??
I see that louie has a possible response for you. I had forgotten about that problem.
lastfm, transmission or handbrake. Can anyone confim issues after installing these apps?
if not these softwares then im convinced im dealing with a power issue.
I would be doubtful (although not completely dismissive) of anything like these being the source of your problem.
the genius bar has said it may b an enviromental issue. this also may be the case, tho not so much recently. They said perhaps magnectic fields may cause it 2 go 2 sleep and its true moving my MBP around does seem to settle it for instance if i move it out of my room im yet to see any of my sleep issues occur
The movement sensor might be involved, as also louie's excellent suggestion of the temp sensor. It is difficult to know how to test these effectively and might need more tools than the GB can muster.
But i dont live in a electricity tower and i did move my MBP to the other side of my room where it worked for a good month - and then started again with the sparatic sleeping.
It is hard to disprove a negative. The only way to bring some sort of evidence to the table if there were some such interference would be to use the computer for an extended period away from where you are using it now. If it works without problem in (say) Starbucks or some other neutral area, and then fails within a few minutes of returning to your home, then there is something stronger to work with. Then you can start to track down some external source, I would guess.
So i will try a safe start as graham had suggetsed as this seems as a simple enough fix - but i do run a time capsule, ext 1TB HD, Wireless mouse etc ..which i presume will not work in safe mode .... and is the idea to just keep safe mode on untill it does crash again or will just starting up on safe mode then restarting solve the issue?
Time Machine ought to work in Safe Mode; and I would not suggest working that way for a lengthy period of time: just to start it up perhaps to clear something that is interfering. But what you write here is of interest: (A) The HD -- what is it (brand, etc, and how formatted) and how connected; plus the wireless mouse? What brand is that (and I presume you mean Bluetooth)?
As for A weak diode..I dunno what that is or how 2 check it
Right. I couldn't either, and most shops won't: they would just replace the board. There is a shop here . . . but that is too far for you.
i think the battery is ok ..as i said it performs better at this point when i disconnect the power...but not always... i had a terrible day yesterday when it would keep going to sleep everytime i reconnected the power, if i try 2 persist it will keep going back 2 sleep ever 30 seconds untill i eaither just leave it be for a while or untill it just turns off completely!
That suggests, as I mentioned earlier, something awry with the battery/power combination; especially if the performance is not consistent. A battery should deteriorate gradually, not come and go.
If it does turn off when i turn it back on it wont even get to the grey apple logo it just keeps turning off after 2-5 seconds (turning off not sleeping)
so im at a loss why that is!
No power. You have to wait a while until the power level is brought up to a workable level.
The power cord seems fine all the pins spring out - the middle spring is smaller than the others tho.
Mine too. That seems OK.
Do post those logs. Someone might see the answer.
