Switching off 8520 (Full off or Sleep mode?)

Hi,
Are these 2 different 'types' of switching off?
When I press the right hand RED power key,
I get the following:
TURNING HANHELD OFF - press any key to abort
then
TURNING HANDHELD OFF
If after a minute or so I move and accidentally catch the power on key,
the whole thing becomes immediately on.
Am I perhaps putting it to SLEEP and not really full OFF?
Thanks,
Donald

Sleep would lock the keyboard, so that pressing anything but the mute button again wouldn't wake it up.
A blackberry is never really OFF unless the battery is out.
It takes very little to push the power on button and for it to come to life.

PowerNap Time Machine backup? USB Data shuts off in sleep mode!

So how is PowerNap supposed to do a Time Machine backup when USB is turned off in sleep mode? Everything else seems to work, but when I wake my computer back up, I am greeted with a message that the external hard drive was removed improperly, and no backups were completed overnight.
I'm using a MacBook Air Mid-2012 and a 2TB WD External HDD that uses it's own power supply.

A USB drive should be fine.
Right before going to bed, I duplicated a bunch of large files and then went to sleep with my USB hard drive plugged in. When I woke up I realized that Time Machine did back up about one hour after the computer was asleep.

Bluetooth powers off in sleep mode

My bluetooth is powering off during sleep mode on my 2.93 ghz iMac, core 2 duo. It does not happen everytime, but 2x in the last week. The only way I can get it back on is to reboot. Any suggestions as to reason, and possible fix?

Try doing a smc and pram reset.

Ipod music turns off in sleep mode

Ipod nano 6th gen music turns off in sleep mode or when you turn it off. It always continued to play until I paused it before.

By the way all you guys freaking out about this, go to home screen. click settings. go to music. go to the sleep/wake button section. change double clikc for: to Play/Pause. Now when you wanna listen to songs, click power button 1nce to put in sleep mode, then double-click power button really fast once in sleep mode to unpause your song and resume listening. lol, i figured this out 2 days after 1.1 update..

Power supply vs. logic board? turns off in sleep mode.

My imac g5 (2004 - 1st generation?) is either turning completely off or going into some un-wake-up-able mode after it's put to sleep. (I have to switch off/on the power strip and turn the computer on all over again.) And sometimes if it's sleeping (power light pulsing on front) it may or may not wake from sleep by pushing the power button. Often touching a key in that circumstance will cause it to crash, so I've quit using that altogether as a method of waking it up. I've reset the SMU a number of times throughout the past few months and it has not cleared up this problem.
Last night after I put it to sleep it switched in to the un-wake-up-able mode. I could still hear something running (not a fan, just an electrical hum) where it seems like it's crashed and can't shut itself off. I had to turn off the power and try to turn the computer back on. It wouldn't respond the first couple times. Then the power light glowed for a while but it still didn't turn on completely. After a few more minutes I tried again. Maybe I held the power button for too long, but I heard a long single beep, the fans whirred, and then everything started up as usual.
I've read a number of threads seemingly related to these issues, but am now not clear about whether this is a power supply issue or a logic board issue. I have yet to open the back and check for bulging capacitors. Just thought I'd ask here first.

I am having a very close issue too (posted also in a more recent thread about power button not functioning). My old iMac G5 20 inches got a power supply that went bad two years ago. I had it replaced and all went fine until two weeks ago.
My wife was using it, while I was away: machine shut down with a 'pop!' sound.
She tried to start it up again, but after pressing the button a couple of times - the last one longer - she had a long strong peep. The machine went on for a while and then off again. Scared, she left it off.
After checking, no reported issue seems to fit to the problems shown: power supply is working; logic board too. The machine is working fine, but on sleep, it dies out. While doing tasks, at undetermined times, it shuts down with a 'pop!'. Sometimes you can restart it immediately. Sometimes you can't and have to wait one or more hours. No evidently bad caps on board, led check returns 1 (no 2 flashing or attempting to turn on) with dead computer, otherwise all working fine. Hardware test also passed. Console messages have nothing relevant or clearly understandable to offer.
Still can't figure out a solution. Many user are pretty fast in suggesting to bringing the machine to Apple. Unfortunately not all around the world we have/need cars. And getting the 20 kg of iMac by feet/metro to the shop it ain't such a nice walk. When I fried the power supply, there was no sufficiently large box on sale to pack the computer and have it send to the shop. I had to wait for the technician - on a convenient day - do drop by and take it (and he knew he was going to repair it)!
Will post, if I have further developments.

Phone shuts off in sleep mode

over the past few days, when the iphone goes into sleep mode, it shuts down completely. This only happens in the sleep mode. If the leave the display on, without putting it in the sleep mode, the phone stays on. Also, the battery level indicators shows full strength, but in the setting mode, under usage, the usage and standby times are blank. It indicates that the usage and standby times will be displayed after iphone is fully charged. Is there a problem with the battery? Is that why the iphone keeps shutting off. I tried to reset the phone, but the problem presists. Do I need to completely reset it using itunes?

Exactly the same thing happened to me after upgrading to 1.1.4 firm. Did you solve it? I can't take the phone right now to the Apple Store, as I'm working in Spain. It seems to be a software problem, as it was working fine with firm 1.1.3.
Need help, don't want to be without my iPhone so much time...

G4 Dual 450 Shuts Itself Off in Sleep Mode

It's been a long time since I've posted here. Got interested in digital photography and haven't had the time to check these boards like I used to.
Anyway, the title says it all. After my G4 Dual 450 has been in sleep mode a while, it shuts itself off. On startup, occasionally the power button doesn't seem to engage-- you press it and nothing happens. Other times the power button functions normally. Could a dying power switch cause the computer to shut down in sleep mode? This is a third computer in the house and is only used by my wife to play some simple games, including some old OS9 ones, so it'd definitely not want to put much money into repairing it.
One of my wife's favorite games is called Mombasa. It's a tile match shareware game in OS9 with an African theme. Does anyone know if it ever got ported to OSX. I tried a Google search but kept coming up with Mobasa Africa.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

How can I turn off the sleep mode on my B209a

I need to turn the sleep mode off on my B209a printer,every time my computer updates and printer is in sleep mode , my computer does not reinstall printer.
usally its at a time where I need to print and I have to stop and reboot system with the printer on.

HI,
Go into the setup menu from the display of the unit and find prefferances. In there is the option called "energy save mode". You should be able to turn it off there.

Qosmio X500-11G - Incrorrect turning off from sleeping mode

Hello everebody,
When I leave my X500-11G (Windows 7 64bit) in turning on condition and no one process is working computer is turning off incorectly in stead of go to sleeping mode. After that X500 don't responce for keyboard and mouse and I have to push power button for continue. X500 is turning on but BIOS informs about incorrect turning off Windows and propose different ways of restart Windows: normal start or safety modes.
Is this problerm famous and how to fix it?
Thank you,
iPal

Hi buddy,
To be honest I also dont know why it happens but theoretically this problem could be caused by software... Are you using preinstalled Windows version or have you installed your own Windows version?
Furthermore I would recommend loading the default settings in BIOS. Therefore press F9 key in BIOS setup.
Have also a look in Windows Event Viewer. Usually you can find a log file about all errors and maybe you can find an interesting information about this problem.

If a stolen iPhone was in airplane mode will a find my iPhone passcode lock apply itself when the hone is switched off of airplane mode?

My girlfriend's iPhone was stolen whilst on holiday in London. The phone was in airplane mode and didn't appear on Find My IPhone, which was installed and enabled (all set tis correct other than airplane mode). I sent a remote passcode lock to the phone.
The next day the iPhone appeared on the map, obviously having been switched on and had airplane mode switched off. My question is, will the remote lock apply immediately the phone comes back online?
I assume their only opting at that point is to do a factory restore which would wipe all the data anyway, right?
Also, can't Apple track the IMEI number regardless of a restore and a new SIM? Or the network operator that the phone was originally connected to?

This notion that is being floated around that Apple's hands are tied due to privacy and legal concerns doesn't impress me much at all. My iPad was stolen about a month ago. I have the receipt, the serial number (from my box), and the MAC address (from my home router's log). Armed with that information it's technologically feasible to track, deauthorize, and eventually recover my device. But for reasons I have been unable to ascertain Apple refuses to provide anything like this for their customers. And as their devices become increasingly smaller, more desirable, and more expensive theft of them will also increase.
But to my point about legalities and privacy concerns: whether they are true or not, it certainly doesn't stop Barnes and Noble from blacklisting their Nooks when they are reported stolen. At least, that's what I found after buying a Nook color off craigslist. When I tried to register it online it refused. When I called in to customer support they informed me that it was a stolen device. If I wanted to remove the blacklist, they explained, simply provide the last 4 digits of the credit card, the name on the receipt, and the total dollar amount of the store along with store number where the device was purchased. If I lacked any of that information, I could simply contact the store and retreive it from their records. Since I was not the original owner, however, my option was to turn the device over to the police and hope they returned it to the rightful owner.
When I explained this scenario to Apple Care he insisted the limitation was due to privacy concerns. That defies logic, however, when one considers that it's the original owner (and only through the poilce and Apple's legal department) who must report the device stolen. And, like B&N, it's the customer who is able to provide personal information to blacklist (as well as unblacklist) a device according to his or her own volition.
I've been thinking a bit about this for some time...plenty of time to think on the couch sans iPad anway...and I've been wondering why in the world does Apple not allow users to deauthorize and blacklist iDevices through iTunes itself. At that point Apple has no involvement in the process and even the barest of legalities are irrelevant. My assumption is that Jobs has thought long and hard about these issues, including my described resolution, so it begs the question as to why Apple refuses to do anything about stolen devices. I hope one day I can ask him because that is a question I would like answered more than anything: what is the rationale for the hands-offs approach to this? I can't fathom one myself but I have to guess there is one. Apple hasn't come across to me as a callous company so I'm reluctant to attribute it to that.

Turn off or sleep mode

hello
is it fine to keep the mac in sleep mode all the time or to shut down the mac every time that i'm finish to use?

Sleep mode is fine. If you're not going to be using the Mac for several days the recommendation is to turn it off. I rarely turn mine off.
Regards

Pismo shuts off during sleep-mode

Hi
I realized that my Pismo occasionally shuts off while in sleep mode. When I press a key to wake it up the pulsating green light turns off and I need to press the on/off-key. The computer then reboots normally.
Thanks! Felix

Hi
In meantime, it is not "occasionally" but always.
1. PMU-reset with the small button on the rear did not help either.
2. I believe I cannot hear the HD after opening the lid. The flashing green light turns off. I simply press the on/off-button and the Pismo starts up as if I turned it off.
3. HDD is new, Seagate 120 GByte.
Actually a few weeks ago I obtained a Pismo with a defect power borad and swapped CPU-cards due to my bad L2-cache. Worked great!
Afterwards I realized, that the casing of the other Pismo was in much better shape (mine has a crack next to the bottom Apple-logo and a very shiny upper part). What I finally did was the following:
Stripped both down to the point where practically the logic board and metal frame was the last part in there.
Built up on the lower part of the ebay-Pismo with my power-board and practically all other parts from my own functioning Pismo and with the new HDD. Upper case and keyboard is from the ebay-Pismo, which was apparently used very little.
I guess I will take everything apart again and make sure that my own logic board runs in there. Maybe the logicboard of the eBay-Pismo was damaged together with the power boards and AHT doesn´t recognize it (System Profiler shows an error with regards to the sound system, but sound works).
Strange, if I could only tell whether this is hardware related.
Thanks for any input
Felix

Imac shuts off during sleep mode

when in sleep mode my 2010 imac 21" shuts off after a couple of hours? It starts up fine but happens evertime its in sleep mode.

You may improve some of your power issues by resetting the SMC on your iMac by using the instructions found here: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303446
The only other thing I can think of, outside hardware/power supply problems, is your power is getting cut off for a brief period. You can go to System Preferences > Energy Saver > Options > you can CHECK 'restart automatically after power failure' - if this is already selected, then I would think it maybe a hardware issue... let us know
