Takes a long time to wake from sleep?

If my 2012 Mac Mini has gone into sleep mode for some time it takes forever to wake up and become responsive again. There is also a lot of disk activity for some time after it wakes and it is very sluggish.
It is like it has gone into hibernation?
Any ideas?

Checking Disk Utility there are no S.M.A.R.T. errors.
Activity Monitor the top item most of the time is Kernal Task with around 2.5% CPU.
There is 13.18 GB Free Ram and Page Outs are 0 bytes.
In Console there are several repeating messages:

Macbook Pro takes long time to wake from sleep

Hi, I have recently purchased the latest Macbook Pro (Mid-2012, not the Retina display version), and I've noticed if the Macbook is left switched on, with the lid down and not plugged into the mains, it will take a long time to wake from sleep. I've looked for similar posts, and everyone describes it as a long delay, but for me the screen is greyed out (but transparent) and a process bar appears, which fills up and then the display loads properly, but it takes a further 30-50 seconds to activate things like the mouse and wifi etc (it feels like it has completely frozen).
Has anyone experienced this and is it normal? I looked up standby mode, but am led to believe this is only with the retina display models, so am a bit worried.

Hi Thumbnut,

Macbook Pro takes a long time (41 secs) from start to reach log-in - It used to be almost instantaneous, I'm running Lion OS

My Macbook Pro takes a long time (41 secs) from start to reach log-in - It used to be almost instantaneous, I'm running Lion OS. I thought this might be because I'd used a lot of disk space but I've now reduced that - I'm only using 40 of the 320 gb available. I have no games and I've unchecked the "re-open windows" option on shutdown. The rest of the preformance (once in) remains good.

41 seconds is actually a little faster then normal. Boot from completely off is normally around 45-50 seconds.
Your computer never ever came on almost instantaneously from completely off. You are confusing waking up from sleep mode and booting the computer from completely off.

Takes a long time to wake up ??

hi all, i have just got a new MacBookPro (mid 2012) i previously had an early 2011 for over two years until it broke down !.
my new MBP takes a long time to wake up, it seems to have crashed when i first open the lid, but no, it isnt crashed, it takes about a minute or more to wake up properly, my previous MBP woke up immediately under exactly the same circumstances, they both have Mountain Lion etc. so i cannot for the life of me understand why they should be so different ?.

If the suggestions mentioned in KB Article http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1411 Apple Portables: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC) suggest you do the following:
You have 14 days to return the computer w/no questions asked. Plus you have 90 days of FREE phone tech support on top of your standard 1 year warranty unless you also purchased AppleCare which gives you an additional 2 years of coverage plus FREE phone support.
Strongly suggest that you take FULL advantage of the above before it runs out. Let Apple deal w/the problems.

What are the normal Boot time?/Wake from sleep time? for MB?

Looking to buy a MacBook for my wife to replace her old Dell D-420. The Dell still works fine but takes forever to boot and to wake from hibernation. I was given an old iBook a few weeks ago and was amazed at how fast it woke from sleep mode (the boot times were pretty snappy too). So my question is. What is the "normal" wake from sleep time on a MacBook? How long does a cold boot take?
BTW: Steve isn't going to surprise us with an updated MacBook next week is he??
Thanks
Soon to be MacBook owner.

lancia is right- 56 second sound about right, my 2.0 GHz MacBook boots in about 49 seconds.
If you want your MacBook to boot up faster, you can reset the PRAM (parameter random access memory). What this does is that it resets all the devices it searches for when it starts up: forgets about them, literally
To do this, press down the command (the buttons next to the space bar) , option, P, and R keys at the same time when you turn on your MacBook. Press these keys until you hear the tone a second time. Make sure to do it quick, because after you hear the tone it won't work.
Hope this helps,
Wookams
To your BTW question:
Almost certainly not, but I still recommend waiting a couple months extra because Apple notebooks usually update themselves every 200 days or so. I was disappointed from learning this, but hey...

Since upgrading to OSX Mavericks, my mbp retina will lose wi-fi every time it wakes from sleep.

When waking from sleep, my default home connection is lost, and it usually cannot re-connect until I turn off and back on wi-fi.

Hi. I'm experiencing the same problem, but it's on a 2007 iMac.
When it wakes from sleep, it does not connect to the preferred network. The preferred network is visible, yet when we select it, it asks for the password again -- which I know it is entered correctly -- but the password is refused. A full reboot is required for it to work properly.
It's an iMac, mid 2007, connecting to a Time Machine, using WPA/WPA2 security. All other devices (eg, iPad, iPhone and an other iMac) do not have this issue.
Workaround: I don't let that iMac go to sleep.
Speculation: It's as if when it wakes from sleep it thinks it a different type of security setting
I have not yet found a proper/permanent solution.
Note: I do have TrendMicro Internet security installed, but it is also on the the other iMac and I have tried it with it off and the problem still occurs, thus I doubt it has much to do with it.
Puzzled,
Mike.

Mac Pro restart every time it wakes from sleep

I wonder if anyone has this problem, it is not a big one but annoying. Every time I wake my Mac Pro from sleep it restarts, why is that and can it be fixed? Or there is something wrong with this model?
Model info:
Model Name: Mac Pro
Model Identifier: MacPro3,1
Processor Name: Quad-Core Intel Xeon
Processor Speed: 2.8 GHz
Number Of Processors: 2
Total Number Of Cores: 8
L2 Cache (per processor): 12 MB
Memory: 2 GB
Bus Speed: 1.6 GHz

It is big if the hard drive directory is corrupt in the process.
It was common when 2008 first came out, there is/was a firmware update to address this - and a long thread from March era 2008.
Underpowered UPS can also cause this behavior.

Excel files with fields linked to other excel files take a long time to open from SharePoint library

Trying to track a problem for a user.
Most of the documents opened from our SharePoint libraries appear to open in a timely fashion.
But...one user has noticed an issue, and I just noticed something with her files that are a little less common than other stuff we've seen.
she has a lot of pricelist excel files. there are some master price list files, and then other files that link to fields from within the master files.
the files that contain links to other files appear to be the ones that open very slowly.
the files are being opened via excel itself, not the owa viewer or editor.
is there a trick to setting up either the library, the site, site collection or web app... or some client-side setting that affects how quickly/efficiently excel will open files that link to other excel files shared within sharepoint?

Hi carphuntin_god,
According to your description, my understanding is that when you click a hyperlink which redirect to other files , the file are opened very slowly via excel client.
How about you download the same file and open it using excel client? If it is opened quite fast, the issue should be caused by some third-party add-ins in the office program or antivirus soft.
Here is a similar thread you can have a look:

If you want to open the files using excel service after click the link in the excel file, you can create the hyperlink in the following way:
General Syntax:
http://<server_name>/<site_name>/_layouts/ xlviewer.aspx?id=<workbook path>&range=<location>

If you want to open the files using Office Web Apps after click the link in the excel file, you can create the hyperlink in the following way:
http://<server name> / <site name> / <library name>/<your file name> ?web=1
For example:

My imac takes a long time to go to sleep.

I have a 27 inch iMac (circa 2010) OS 10.8.5 / 2.06GHz Intel Core 2 Duo / 4GB memory.
When I select SLEEP MODE it takes 30 seconds to go to sleep. It also seems to wake up all on its own?!
Any ideas as to how I can get it to sleep instantly like it used to do?
Thank you.

Hey Dan,
If you are having an issue with both slowness going to sleep and waking unexpectedly from sleep on your iMac, I would suggest that you reset the iMacs System Management Controller. See this article -
Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC) - Apple Support
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Be well,

"Connection lost" every time I wake from sleep

I bought my MBP with the wireless mighty mouse and for the past 2 or so months I've had no complaints about the bluetooth connection.
Now, every time I wake my computer from sleep the square comes up saying "Connection Lost" at the bottom center of my screen then about 5 seconds after my mouse pairs again.
Why's it doing this? Never did before...
I' not too sure if I'm being to nit-picking or a perfectionist but it just didn't do it before.
Am I crazy or does everyone's do this?
Thanks
-Mike

Hi MIke:
I do not have a similar configuration (I rarely turn mu desktop iMacs off). When I do shut them down, the wireless devices are connected automatically.
However, if your mouse does pair, I would try "normal" troubleshooting as that could possibly cause additional problems.

P.S. I am also curios about anomalies myself!

Why do hot corners break every time I wake from sleep?

Every time I open my computers, my set hot corners have stopped working. In the settings, they are still there, but I have to either change the settings and change them back, or use the terminal command 'killall Dock' to fix the issue. It's quite annoying to have to do this every single time I turn on my computer. Does anyone know a fix?

I have this same issue - after coming back from sleep hot corners stop working - this is a constant problem and I think having to type "killall Dock" is NOT a solution. I also have a rMBP with 10.8.2

Lync 2013 Client takes a long time to "restore" from taskbar

On many Windows 8 & 8.1 systems in our environment the Lync client will take anywhere from 2-10 seconds to pop up when clicked on in the taskbar. The application is running, logged in, and active. This is very frustrating to our userbase
as they will click on it multiple times and have it then act like a jackrabbit when it finally processes the requested actions.
The computers we have are brand new systems. Happens on freshly installed & updated versions of Lync 2013. Seems to be after the Lync client hasn't been clicked on, or utilized in a while. Other applications pop up instantly (zero delay)
and without any problems, it only affects Lync. I tried disabling UI animations such as fade, slide etc, which did nothing to help the issue.
This has me a bit stumped, and I'm wondering if this is a known issue or not? Hopefully there is a solution?

I wouldn't say it's dismissive, I was asking for more information. I wanted to know if it was potentially an overactive endpoint protection application or something similar, if it can't be reproduced on fresh build of Windows then something is interfering
and it's difficult to work out not knowing what all is installed. Most people don't experience the issue so I imagine another piece of software may likely be conflicting.
I do agree that it's not an answer, at the least not very useful answer. Occasionally items get marked as answer but they're more of a "closed" as the original poster never responds.
I'd suggest posting your issue in the Lync 2013 forums instead as people are less likely to watch this post now that it's already marked "answered". Work through it and see what can be found, hopefully you'll find some good information which will be
more helpful to others.

Wake from sleep volume extremely loud after 10.9.4 update

Every time I wake from sleep since the 10.9.4 update, my Mac Pro's volume to my speakers (via headphone jack) seems to be insanely loud despite system prefs showing the volume level at middle. Normally I like to keep my speaker's volume high and turn the system volume down, but it seems like the OSX is ignoring the system volume setting after waking up. It reverts to proper behavior when I hit volume up or down on the keyboard. Anyone notice this?

Reset the NVRAM.
NVRAM reset:
Shut down your Mac.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command (⌘), Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.
After resetting NVRAM or PRAM, you may need to reconfigure your settings for speaker volume, screen resolution, startup disk selection, and time zone information. If issues persist, your Mac's logic board battery (not a portable Mac's rechargeable battery) may need to be replaced. The logic board battery helps retain NVRAM/PRAM settings when your computer is shut down. You can take your Mac to a Mac Genius or Apple Authorized Service Provider to replace the battery on the logic board.

Audio volume low when computer wakes from sleep - os x yosemite

I've been having an issue ever since I upgraded to OS X Yosemite, where the audio volume coming out of my external speakers is extremely low after I wake my computer up from sleep. The only resolution I have found is restarting the computer. Once I do that, the audio volume is great. If I were to boot up my computer after it has been completely shut down, the audio volume is also great. The issue only occurs after sleep. Anyone else having a similar issue? Is there another fix besides restarting the computer?
Speakers: Bose Companion 2 Series II (these are wired, not bluetooth)
Computer: Mac Pro - late 2013 - running Yosemite

This is a BUG. It has been submitted to engineering many times - unfortunately Apple has not done anything about it.   We have 5 Mac Pros, all 5 do the same thing after updating to Yosemite.   The PRAM / SMC reset is useless - we even installed a fresh OS on one of the machines (a suggestion of the level 2 Apple tech) same problem.   Clearly this is a system level bug.   Only way to get it resolved is to keep pounding the bug report site with requests.     The squeaky wheel gets the oil.   The problem is 100% repeatable on the machines that exhibit the bug.
In the mean time set up an applescript with this command and it will reset the sound - do not include the brackets :
<do shell script "sudo killall coreaudiod" with administrator privileges>
Run it every time you wake from sleep and you won't have to deal with the problem ever again.
Pretty lame that Apple has not fixed it even though the problem appears to be pretty widespread.
