[T61p] Doesn't hibernate, only logs out

Hi,
I have a not even 1 week old T61p with Vista Ultimate preinstalled. After doing all the Windows and Lenovo updates, I noticed that hibernation didn't work (and still doesn't).
Here's what happens: I click on Start->Hibernate (or other ways to achieve it) and then the screen goes black, hard drive becomes active, then after 2-5 seconds the displays flickers and then comes back to the login screen.
I tried to disable / reenable hibernation with the powercfg -h ON|OFF command and restarting before,during and afterwards, with no effect.
The event viewer shows an error:
Source: volmgr
Event ID: 45
The system could not sucessfully load the crash dump driver.
I searched the web the last few days and came across other people that have the same symptoms.
First one:
http://neosmart.net/forums/showthread.php?t=1338
Guy who has exactly same symptoms after installing xp on another partition, no resolutions found besides clean install.
They suspected problems with the volume manager (volmgr) or Bitlocker, but couldn't confirm or fix anything.
Second one:
http://forum.thinkpads.com/viewtopic.php?t=49155
Same symptoms, dual boot with Linux.
He found that his Vista partition wasn't marked as active, which caused the hibernation problem.
In my case, I don't have another operating system installed, but I used Paragon Partition Manager 8.5 to shrink the preinstalled Vista partition to 60GB and created a new 120GB one at the end. Because I initially tried to use Vista's partitioning tool, I deactivated the system restore points and the paging file in order to free some space in the middle of the drive that prevented Vista from shrinking it beyond their locations. Didn't work of course, even after using various defragmentation tools. Then I used Paragon's tool and it took care of moving the overlapping files.
My Vista partition is marked as active. The second one (containing installed programs) is not active. Vista tells me that only partitions with an operational OS should be marked active.
Bitlocker is installed but I never used it.
I think hibernation didn't even work after doing the updates at first, but I'm not really sure anymore whether I tried it then. Definately after the repartitioning, it didn't work. Standby, shutdown, restart work all as expected.
Thank you,
Jo

I did a clean install of Vista after I could not stop more and more problems from appearing.
First hibernation, then SP1 messed things up even more, and so on.. 
After a clean installation as described in another forum, all the power states work fine again. I would not recommend using the preinstalled system. Just make an image of it for emergency backup reasons and then put your own system on it.

    These files were lost two years ago.
    That's not consistent with what you wrote in your first message. I can't help you unless I know what's going on. Either you do, or do not, have backups of all the data you want to keep. If you do not, then the first thing you need to do is back up those files. It makes zero sense to do anything else. In order to back up, you'll need either of two things: another Mac, in working order, with a FireWire port and enough space on its internal drive to hold your files; or an external drive, also with enough space.
    On the other hand, if you do have backups, or if you simply don't care about any of the data, then the solution to your problem may be quite simple. All you have to do is boot from your installation disc (your profile says you're running Mac OS 10.5), erase your internal drive, reinstall the Mac OS, then restore your data from backup. You will need to be selective in restoring software, because incompatible software may be what caused the issue.
    But it's also possible that you have a hardware failure, in which case you can't get your computer working again until it's repaired.

  • MacBook Pro doesn't hibernate when runs out of battery

    Dear all,
    I've been experiencyng this issue for quite a while now and is very frustrating. My MacBook Pro (Early 2011) doens't go to sleep as it should when runs out of battery. It simply dies. This is not a continuous issues as it happens 1/2 oh the times that battery runs out and I cannot connect it to power (low battery warning is also working perfectly).
    Mac is stock besides HDD (now SSD) and RAMs. Battery stock as well and loks good in sysinfo (attached):

    It doesn't at all appear to be a HW issues, as batteries behaves normally and system sleeps corretcly at times. Indeed, seems to be a software issue as also running a pm set command in terminal after mac died returned this result:

    Hi all,
    Thnk you for the reply.
    @andyBall: I though that the battery might run out sooner than what it reports, however it typically behaves behaves quite well - 5+ hours after fully charged and approximately 10 minutes of operation after low battery warning. Very hard that battery is running out before the system realize that. Yet I have to try the SMC reset. Will revert.
    @SilverSkyRat: I have one iCloud and one Gmail for work. Today I have disabled both and OS hibernated well (no failure). Later in the day I reactivated Gmail and system still hibernated fine. I mainly use the Mac for work therefore it's rather difficult to perform continus test of this kind. Although, system somtimes hibernates fine with also all account active.
    General question, which are the program associated with "Address Book Source Sync"? Only "Contacts"?
    Also, I have Little Snitch on the computer, may this be anyhow linked with this issue in your opinion/experience?
    Best regards,
    Alex

  • HT201356 I have accidentally deleted my alternate iCloud (email) address. Are there any possibilities to retrieve it back because my iPad is connected to that email address, and now, I can't log out from it on my iPad, because it doesn't exist?

    I have accidentally deleted my alternate iCloud (email) address. Are there any possibilities to retrieve it back because my iPad is connected to that email address, and now, I can't log out from it on my iPad, because it doesn't exist.
    I have alternate icloud email attached to my iPad and I accidentally delete it from appleid.apple.com. And now I can't log out that iCloud account because it doesn't exist and it can't recognize my password.

    If you mean that Find My Phone is asking for a password to a different Apple ID to your current Apple IDand that ID is a previous version of your current ID, not an entirely different one.
    This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
    However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7, or if you restore from a previous back up made before you changed your details and some other circumstances.
    The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID using your current password, you don’t need access to this address if it’s previously been used with your Apple ID, once you have saved these details enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone" and delete the account from your device. It may take a short while to remove the account.
    You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, save it once again and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.

    How do I "log out" or "sign out" of iCloud on my iPhone? There is an option to delete the account, but I just want to log off. I want to keep the account name for future use.

    It looks like the article below has the information you are looking for.
    iCloud: Change iCloud feature settings
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2613
    Turn off iCloud completely
    Depending on whether you want to stop using iCloud on all or only some devices, do one or more of the following:
    On your iOS device’s Home screen, go to Settings > iCloud, then at the bottom of the screen, tap Delete Account.
    Note:   If you delete your iCloud account, iCloud will no longer back up your iOS data. You can still back up your device in iTunes (for more information, open iTunes and choose iTunes > Help). 
    On your Mac, open iCloud preferences, then click Sign Out.
    If your Mac has OS X v10.7.5 and you turn off iCloud, your calendar information and reminders aren’t stored locally in iCal. If you want to retain your calendar and reminder information, you need to back it up before turning off iCloud. For more information, see the Apple Support article iCloud: Calendar & reminder data removed from Calendar and Reminders or iCal when disabling iCloud Calendar.
    On your Windows computer, open the iCloud Control Panel, then click Sign Out.
    Note:   If you turned on automatic download of music, app, or book purchases (in iTunes preferences or in Settings on your iOS device), your iTunes purchases are still downloaded to your devices.

  • I have qualitynet either wired internet. I buy a card good for a month at a time, I can only log into one device at any one time.  Are there settings I can adjust on my airport express to allow all my devices to connect to wi-fi without having to log out.

    I have qualitynet either wired internet. I buy a card good for a month at a time, I can only log into one device at any one time.  Are there settings I can adjust on my airport express to allow all my devices to connect to wi-fi without having to log out of one devise before using another?

    Some Internet providers that limit access to a single device at a time do so by the device's hardware MAC address. If your ISP is one of those, you may be able to substitute the MAC address of your AirPort Express base station for the computer. I would suggest that you contact them to find out if this is allowable.

  • Some users don't appear at the login screen when restarting, only upon logging in as a user who does appear, then logging out. How can I make all users appear on the initial list?

    I've inherited a previously used early 2011 13-inch MacBook Pro at work.
    I now have my own account on the computer, however the account does not show up on the list of users to log in as in the start up log in screen. It will only appear if I first log in as one of the users who do appear, then logout. The background also changes between these two log in screens - the start up one is white whereas after logging out of one user it's the brushed steel background. My account has admin powers.
    Anyone have any ideas how I can make this account also show up on the start up screen?
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    I do think it has something to do with FileVault.
    Under System Preferences -> Security & Privacy -> FileVault I try and click "Enable users" near the bottom (after unlocking with an admin password). If I do this from my own account a green check mark appears next to my name, but upon clicking "done" I received this message after a brief loading period:
    The following users weren’t allowed to unlock this disk because an unknown error occurred: (myusername).
    I tried going into the root account and performing this same process, the first time System Prefences unexpectedly quit, and the second I received the same error as above after clicking the "Enable User..." button next to my account and trying to hit "Done".

  • Why do I get logged out only for some threads?

    I am presently logged in (obviously), but if I visit this thread:
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/6664623
    The screen suddenly changes to "welcome guest | login" in the upper left corner.   If I click on login, I'm taken to the main welcome page for this site, and in the corner it says "welcome augratin | logout" which I suppose means I was actually logged-in already.  But going back to that same thread, and I'm suddenly a guest again.  This happens using chrome, opera and safari on both PC and iPad.  What's going on?

    Forum glitch. It happens to all of us every now and then.
    I think the only way I was able to get around it once - it was showing the logged out thing on my computer, but if I logged in and went to the thread on my iPad then I could post.

    In your first post you mention you have done a reset and a restore. Those are the last two processes in the user troubleshooting. If those do not work, then the last thing is to go to the Genius Bar. You say you went to Apple and they opened the phone and re-seated the connectors? That sounds unusual, because if there was a hardware issue,they would replace the hardware. You say you cannot get a replacement, is that because you are out of warranty? An out of warranty replacement is only $199 plus tax. It seems to me since you mention the fact you need to press hard to get the screen to react there is something going on with the hardware. If this problem has been going on for over a year, have you been reporting this to Apple. You say you cannot get a replacement and you are on the second phone, I wonder why they are denying you a replacement. Is there something you are not telling us??

  • IPhone 4 apps not updating that require wifi. They get only so far and then start over again. Now they won't even attempt to update. Given the 'done' or 'retry' option and they're still unusable. I've tried logging out of app store, rebooting, and reset.

    I have 4 apps that will not update. Im mostly concerned with one, as it has a good amount of in-app purchases. It started to
    Update and got 3/4 done then started over again. now im given the 'done/retry' option shortly after attempting an update. I've rebooted, reset(lost all my phone contacts thanks very much....), logged out of app store....
    Perhaps its the wifi I'm using (cruise ship worker here), and will try again on a land wifi signal before worrying a lot. any help would be great.
    In-store helper had me double click home and clear out all opened apps and that worked then , but not now.

    Also, just as a note, I restored my iphone last night, and it has made no difference.
    One last thing... On itunes, when i click 'info' on apps that are said to be under my friends account (ie they will only update when he is logged in), it says that i purchased them under my account, yet it won't let me update them.

  • Adobe Flash can be installed, but must be install EVERY time I log out and log back in. Why doesn't it stay? How can I fix this? (I have Firefox 6.0.2 and Flash 10.3)

    I have searched through the FAQs and find stuff on "crashing". I have not had any trouble with flash crashing, but I can't keep it installed.
    If I install flash, then it stays as long as I am logged in, even if I close firefox. Once I log out and log back in, I lose Flash and have to re-install it.

    I was having the same issue with installing Flash player 10.3.183.10 in both Firefox 6.0.2 and Explorer 9 -- the Task Manager would show the installer running as a process, but it would never actually install anything. It would just sit there until I killed it or rebooted.
    It seems that there are multiple versions of the separate installers needed. The installer that worked for me in Firefox was
    install_flash_player_10.exe -- a 3,017KB file
    and for Explorer, it was:
    install_flash_player_10_active_x.exe -- a 3,054KB file.
    Neither of those files was sent by the main updater page, nor did that page offer the 239KB uninstall_flash_player.exe, which is needed to uninstall the previous Flash version before one can even begin to try to update it. I had to pound through the messages in the forums to find links to those "full" installers.
    It is working now in both browsers, but jeepers creepers, it shouldn't take all day to find the installers for something that gets updated as often as Flash does.
