Solution for sleep issues with external display?

I had an Early 2011 Macbook Pro that worked quite well with an external display. I now have a Mid 2012 Macbook Pro (bought 5 days ago, and running 10.10.3) that will not consistently work with the same external monitor.
I had it working yesterday for a few hours only if I left the MBP with the top open (both the MBP screen and external monitor stayed lit). But, today it is back to freezing each time the monitor is connected to it.
I have tried:
1. Connecting the external monitor to the MBP with the top open. Results in the MBP screen now going dark and no signal being passed to the external monitor. If the external monitor is disconnected, the MBP screens stays dark and the computer is unresponsive requiring a hard restart.
2. Connecting the external monitor to the MBP with the top closed. Results in no signal being sent to the external monitor. Disconnecting the external monitor and reopening the MBP yields, again, and unresponsive computer which requires a hard restart.
I have tried three different external monitors, all giving the same result. The MBP is connect to external power, and I am running the latest OS (10.10.3).
Any suggestions before I return this to the Apple store in a rage? :-)

Hello there, Gaflin.
I'm sorry to hear you're having so much trouble getting your external display to work the way you are expecting with your new MacBook Pro. The following Knowledge Base article provides a great checklist of steps for troubleshooting the issue you seem to be describing:
Apple computers: Troubleshooting issues with video on internal or external displays - Apple Support
No video or no signal, image distortion, "snow," or flickering
Check connections
When using an external display be sure to check the following:
If you're using an Apple notebook, confirm the AC power cable or adapter is securely connected to the computer and the cable providing power to the display is also secure. It is always good to have your notebook connected to AC power when an external display is in use.
Confirm display adapters are fully seated in their respective connections and that they are supported models and for the computer and display. Refer to these articles to assist you with adapter compatibility and further configuration information:
Monitor and Display Adapter Table
About Mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapters
Apple Mini DisplayPort adapters: Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
Thunderbolt ports and displays: Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
Remove all display cable extenders, KVM switches, or other like devices and retest to determine if the issue is resolved.
Try unplugging the video adapter or cable and then plug it back in.
If more than one video adapter is in use (or "daisy-chained"), troubleshoot by using only one adapter.
Example: A mini DisplayPort to DVI adapter connected to a DVI to HDMI adapter is an unsupported configuration because there is a series of adapters in use.
If available, try using a different display and or adapter (or use a different connector by using DVI instead of VGA, for instance).
Reset the system
You can reset the Mac's parameter RAM and SMC.Reset the resolution
Start by resetting the Mac's parameter RAM. If the display does not come up, was previously set to an unsupported resolution, and still results in no video:
Start up in Safe Mode.
From the Apple () menu, choose System Preferences.
Choose Displays from the View menu to open the preferences pane.
Select any resolution and refresh rate that your display supports.
Restart your computer.
Using Closed lid, Extended Desktop, or Mirroring display modes
When using multiple displays, information can be presented in a number of ways. For more information and what modes are supported by your Apple product refer to:
Apple Portables: How to use your computer in closed lid (display closed) mode with an external display
How to use multiple displays with your Mac
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,

How to stop sleep/hibernation with external display & lid down

What is the proper way to get my MBA to not sleep, hibernate, etc. when I have an external display attached and lid closed while watching a movie or webcast. In such a case I am not touching the mouse, trackpad, or keyboard.
I have bluetooth keyboard and usb wireless mouse attached.
I also disabled the sleep/poweroff options in the energy settings while watching.
The MBA still would go to sleep or something after 10 or 15 minutes of no agitation.
Also, the Monitor goes blank since their is not signal coming through to it.
Was this just not a use case that was thought through: Watch video stream with external monitor and lid closed? Make sure the MBA knows this scenario invalidates the powersave options????? And yes, the power was plugged.
Thanks

Caffeine puts a little coffee cup icon at the top bar. Click to turn it off and on - it is on when the cup is dark, ie has coffee in it. However, this won't solve your problem - the MBA will still sleep with the lid closed. There are settings to allow use of an external monitor but what I did was download InsomniaX. This little free app keeps your computer from going to sleep when you close the lid. That way you can close the lid, walk down a hall or do something, then open the lid and keep working. Just don't forget it is on and leave the Mac too long or it will run out of battery.
Insomnia isn't in the App store, had to download it at http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/22211/insomniax

Issues with External Displays on my Macbook Pro Retina

Hello -
My apologies for starting a second thread back to back, but I thought I'd keep these two issues separate
I've been using two external displays off of my Macbook Pro Retina for some time - one off of the HDMI port and the other off of a Thunderbolt to HDMI adapter. Everything was absolutely perfect until the most recent update. Immediately after that, whenever the macbook wakes up, the two external displays go into this black and white snowy mode (like the HBO logo, or that thing from poltergeist) and takes a minute or two to start working properly. Any suggestions on how I can fix this?
Thanks.

Hi there,
Just browsed the forum and found a fix which solve the issue in my context: Google Chrome Play Music app was actually swallowing the media keys events, preventing iTunes to get them.
Still don't really understand why it impacts only iTunes in my case, however once the Play Music app uninstalled from Chrome via the Extensions pane of the Settings page, iTunes got its media keys events back.
See this thread for reference:
Media keys not working on MacBook Air

Possible issue with external displays

Ive been looking into why my latest and greatest g4 1.67 17" powerbook runs my copy of Aperture like a dog with 1 leg and i think it could be due to the external 23" display i use with this laptop.
With that amount of screen, the GPU must have to allocate a fair amount just to run the display needed, thus distracting from the overall amount that Aperture is allocated.
I know apple mentioned that external displays work well with the powerbook series, but what i feel they forget to mention that if you expect to run aperture with this kind of setup, your looking at a pretty slow machine full stop.
Digging through the apple developer notes seems to confirm this and at the moment ive not been able to get any information from apple regarding this issue

I doubt it. Your machine should have the 128MB graphics card.
Internal screen 1680x1050x3 = 5.292MB for the main screen buffer.
External screen 1920x1200x3 = 6.912MB for the main screen buffer.
Even with extra VRAM taken up by Quartz Extreme, the external screen isn't going to be using a huge amount of VRAM out of 128MB.
The real test, of course, is to see if the performance is the same without the external display.

Solution for sound issue with MCP78S chip

I have had sound problems where sound would work sometimes then stop working for no reason. Or it would work after I changed the device order in KDE4 but it would only work for KDE4 programs not VLC or console apps.
Output of
# lspci
is
00:07.0 Audio device: nVidia Corporation MCP78S [GeForce 8200] High Definition Audio (rev a1)
I installed the alsa package with pacman and noticed that alsamixer would use my PC speaker as the default device.
So my solution to this issue is to blacklist the pc speaker module, this will stop the damn beeping when I use the console and fixed the sound issue.
Open rc.conf and blacklist the modules
MODULES=( !pcspkr !snd_pcsp )
That is it, the modules will no longer be loaded and sound should be working fine after a reboot.

i am having problems with this same chipset on my laptop, it plays but it skips some sound, and sometimes it stops completely, very annoying, i have not found any solution to this problem as yet

Trouble getting out sleep mode with external display

My 15" ALPB si connected in closed mode to a Viewsonic external monitor. When not used for a while, the Powerbook will of course get to sleep. But then there is no way to make it wake up again. Disconneting screen and other devices won't help. Only a restart will do, thereby losing all ongoing work. (BTW, never had this problem with a 12" ALPB also connected to the same type of display).
I know that by removing the monitor shutdown option in the energy saving preference panel it will dissapear. But I really need the display sleep option to work.
Someone experiencing this problem? Any solution?
Thanks. Mark

Thanks for your suggestion. That's actually a workaround I've used. The only problem is, the display isn't really put to sleep. The result: I still get an extended desktop and occasionally I "lose" my pointer. A bit annoying, but thus far the only solution I've come up with.

Issue with external display darkening via HDMI on macbook air using VLC

I had a 2010 macbook pro which never had this issue.
When I play a downloaded movie on macbook air in VLC anywhere from 45 min to 1 hour the tv will darken to barely see anything, I then have to hit esc to take VLC out of full screen mode then select full screen mode again and the tv is back to normal brightness showing movie.
This does not happen with Miro, but most of the downloaded movies (avi) do not have sound in Miro which is why I use VLC when Miro has no sound for a particular movie.
Anyone run into this issue before with VLC on a macbook air using mini display port to HDMI on a TV?
This wouldnt be an issue if the sound worked in Miro for these movies! Some AVI files do have sound in Miro but most do not.
Thanks!!!

Bought the mini display port -> dvi adaptor, plugged in the dvi and everything seems to be fixed.
Nice crisp 1920x1080 display, no shivers...
Looks like the signal from vga is not robust enough for this resolution.
Solved.

Backup solutions for FCP 5 with external FireWire LaCie disks

Hi guys!
I'm using a G4 mirrored door Dual and OS 10.4.8.
On external LaCiel d2 disk (160 to 300 GB) I store my footage, project files and other assets for different projects.
After having some trouble with lost "partitition table" on one disk and accidentally replacing an existing Capture Scratch with an emtpy one, I realise I must look for a system to backup my disks.
What do you suggest? I guess a disk-based system is cheaper, but tape feels more reliable.
What tape format should I look into?
All suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Listen to Shane.
You've already got all your footage on Betacam... hang on to it. It may not be environmentally friendly, but tape is cheap and when stored properly, lasts a long time. I can go back a recapture things I shot on Betacam long before the concept of footage on hard drives existed, and believe me, it comes in handy when a client wants to put a corporate history show together.
The only thing I put to tape for archive is a DV copy of my completed timelines. I find these come in handy when a client wants a simple change (cut out Joe cause we fired him last week) If it's simple enough I simply recapture that master tape and edit using it rather than re-capture all the footage necessary to recreate a timeline.
Have fun

No Wireless Internet with External Display, Other Issues

Hello,
When I connect an external monitor to my MBA, I lose my connection to the Internet. The wi-fi signal remains strong, but pages will not load (I tried many) and I cannot retrieve email. The connection times out when I try to ping as well. This occurs whether I have the MBA open or closed. The loss of Internet happens immediately when I connect an external display using the supplied dongle, and returns the moment I disconnect it. It is clearly an issue with external displays.
On the advice of an Apple Genius, I also tried disabling bluetooth. I did so, and turned off all my bluetooth devices (Apple keyboard and mouse, iPhone), but the problems persist.
The other trouble I am having is difficulty connecting to a network for the first time in a session. In other words, I was connected all day yesterday, take the MBA home, and return to the office the next day. MBA takes a long time to see the network, then fails to accept the password. If I carry the MBA closer to the wireless router, it finds and connects automatically as I'd saved my password. When I return to my desk, I remain connected with full signal strength. This has happened in two locations, one with an Airport Extreme, the other with a Netopia 802.11g router. When my Macbook Pro is sitting right next to the MBA, it recognizes and connects to the same networks almost instantaneously.
Anyone have any suggestions? Much appreciated.

Just a quick update... I was on the phone with Apple Support on Saturday morning and I thought we were making progress. The basic idea behind the proposed solution was that there was some "Preferences" that were causing the problem. We started over with a clean Preferences folder and tried connecting up the external monitor. At first, this approach was showing progress. The suggestion was to copy over my original Preferences (I had made a backup copy) just a few at a time until we figured out which ones caused the problem. The problem with this approach is that immediately after I got off the phone, the internet started not to work again. So, even with a clean Preferences folder, the internet would quit working after connecting up the external monitor.
So, I'm back to the drawing board. I have since restored my Preferences folder and I don't have my external monitor and internet working at the same time. BTW, I also upgraded to 10.5.3 and it didn't help.
Still bummed,
Kevin

Issues with External Hard Drives

I hope this is the right forum for this one - please give me a steer if not! I've also posted it in 'Dock and Finder', but this forum seems equally appropriate, if not more so.
I'm getting repeated issues with External Hard Drives, including ones that I have been using successfully for months/years, suddenly failing to mount and then becoming 'unknown device' through the firewire branch of 'About This Mac'.
I've just bought a new hard drive on the grounds that the others had somehow failed, and the same problems are emerging. I decided to Repair Permissions on my iMac's internal drive, and am copying the results below, from repair runs conducted yesterday and today:

Permissions repair complete
My concerns are:
* Some of the permissions repaired yesterday appear to have needed to be repaired again today
* There are several files which carry a warning that they won't be repaired as they have been 'modified', and some of these clearly relate to disk management.
Does anyone have any ideas what is going on???
Thanks!!

Many problems with the 10.5.7 update have been fixed by a Restart.
If that doesn't help, something may have gone wrong with the update. Download and install the "combo" update, from: http://support.apple.com/downloads/MacOS_X_10_5_7_ComboUpdate
If that doesn't help, try running the Apple Hardware Test, on the disc that came with your computer.
1. Disconnect all external devices (including the Ethernet cable) except the keyboard and mouse.
2. Insert the "Additional Software & Apple Hardware Test" disc that came with your computer.
3. Restart while holding down the "C" key. When the list of available startup volumes appears, click Apple Hardware Test and the right arrow.
4. When the Apple Hardware Test main screen comes up (after a moment), follow the on screen instructions.
5. If it detects a problem, an error code will be displayed. Make a note of it.

Major Issues with Thunderbolt Display in Yosemite

I have a MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Early 2013). I'm having issues with thunderbolt display connectivity despite recent Thunderbolt Firmware update. The sleep wake function is not working and display with shut off sporadically.
MacBookPro10,2 Processor Name: Intel Core i7 Processor Speed: 3 GHz Number of Processors: 1 Total Number of Cores: 2 L2 Cache (per Core): 256 KB L3 Cache: 4 MB Memory: 8 GB

Same problem here. I was so excited to see a firmware update this morning for my mac pro, and sure enough as i sat here, the display went black again.

Final Cut 7 audio sync issue with external audio

Ok, I've seached around a lot and still haven't found the solution for this common issue, which is sync between video and audio wich were recorded in two different devices.
My video is from a conference (a lady speaking all the time) ProRess 29.97 and my audio is wav recorded at 44.1 Khz. I have already converted my external audio to a fine AIFF 48 Khz, and I have already re-imported it with the correct 29.97 easy setup, as it shows on this video www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nt-nfelM8KA. That helped a lot but audio still goes out on sync when playback goes further (not that much, but it shows).
On Premiere Pro, that wav file a correctly in sync, and I have had this issue before with FCP and now it has come back! help!
Anyone found a real solution for this issue?

Why not just use Premier? FCP is going to slowly die out anyways....
Anyhow, a work around... using the speed change tool (sss) adjust the audio to be the same length of the video so it is in sync... Press command-J, make note of the percentage you sped up your audio. Now open your audio in STP, select all of your audio go to Process>Timestretch and adjust the audio and apply the same percentage.
Listen to your audio. STP's time stretch is excellent because it adjusts the speed without changing the pitch.
Save as, re-import your audio.

MBP Retina low performance with external displays

Hi everyone!
I have a very bad performance with my MBP 15´´ retina display when it comes to ad an external display. I have a FUL HD LG monitor that looks very bad when i connect the HDMI or the thunderbot port with the proper adapter (as bad as you can´t even read). I want to know if this may ba a hardware problem just with my computer or if it is a software problem, any ideas? does anyone have the same issue?
How can i update my NVIDIA card???
Thanks a lot!

Topic seems to come up here often. Apple has a tendency to dismiss the issue.
Its a pretty well known problem that Mac font smoothing doesn't seem to work well on high resolution third party external displays, making text hard to read. In addition, I think the Mac HDMI resolution support is limited to 1080p, so you must use DP or DVI video interfaces to see full monitor resolution.
The OS default is no font smoothing on external displays (except perhaps the apple display). There is a terminal command that will enable font smoothing for any external monitor, but it often doesn't work well enough. I found that using the OS zoom feature magnifies text to the point to be easily readable. You can set zoom parameters in the accessibility systems preference panel.
For some reason, sometimes the Mac OS thinks some monitors are TVs and use YCbCr instead of RGB. You can open the color sync utility and brouse the settings to see what is being used. There are scripts available that can fix that but are more complicated to install than an app.
It seems that PCs are way ahead of Macs with external display implementation. Most folks having monitor problems with a Mac do not see the same issue with PCs or Unix/Linux OSs.
Oh as far as updating the video card, can't. The monitor "drivers" are built into the OS. When a new display is connected, the OS finds the profile for it.
