Thunderbolt Display in Bootcamp: Wont 'wake' after comp goes to sleep, and wont respond to dim controls.

Hi, I am using a 2011 iMac and my thunderbolt display arrived today.
I use bootcamp (win7) and the display works fine on start up, 2 issues though:
1. Keyboard brightness controls affect the main display but do not not change the thunderbolt display.
2. After the computer goes to sleep, apon waking the thunderbolt display stays off.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Cheers!
Sam

I have no idea about changing from Helpful to Correct. (but feel free to mark this one as correct).
Fixed in the next update in what way? So that the brightness buttons control both at the same time? Don't hold your breath waiting for it. This has been an issue with all the displays for a long time and I doubt this will happen. The problem is that the screens can get out of sync (like if you enable the option to automatically adjust based on the room brightness) so that the brightness wouldn't be the same between them. Who know, perhaps they will come up with this fix and allow them to sync properly.
I don't know of a Windows program but on OSX, I use ControllerMate to do this for me. CM allows you to customize all your buttons to do different (or additional) things. In my situation, I have the external keyboard attached to a 27" Cinema Display. When I press the brightness keys on the external, OSX detects the keys and adjusts only the CD brightness. However, CM is also monitoring the keys and when I use them, it emulates the same brightness keys being pressed on the laptop keyboard. This allows me to control the brightness on both at the same time. If needed, I can press the brightness keys on the laptop and adjust that screen seperately because I haven't programmed CM to monitor those keys.

Internet goes stale after computer goes to sleep and then needs to be rebooted to function properly

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

Request to Mods. re: Yoga Tablet pro 2 not wakeable after it goes to sleep

We have a number of posts regarding the Yoga Tablet Pro 2 going to sleep and not waking up. Can we get some kind of confirmation that this is actively being worked on or passed along? I feel most of us have tried to do a factory reset, for some it's worked for a time, others (such as myself) this has not worked at all. It is not a battery issue because when you hard power off the device and repower it back on, the battery still shows maybe a few percent less than when the device went to sleep.
I do know this is frustrating me and I'm tempted to walk away from this tablet for that reason.
Perhaps we can get a confirmation that this has been passed up the chain or any kind of other "official" recommendations to try. It's not fun having to come back to my tablet after it goes to sleep and having to hard power it off and then repower it back on - every 5th or 6th time.
Thank you,
Dan

I am bumping this. I'd like to see one thread or a sticky on this topic. There are too many threads on this issue and some of us are repeating the same information. I'd also like to know if any work is being done by Lenovo on this issue. The Factory reset seemed to work for a 2 weeks and now my tablet is back to sleeping and not waking.
If someone stumbles on this, the North American Number for Lenovo Tech Support is:
877-453-8686
If you call, Remind them that the Factory reset does not work.
Dont forget to be courteous!

My computer is going to sleep and wont wake up by touching keyboard or mouse. I have to use the power button

Can anybody help? My computer is going to sleep and I cant wake it(bit like a teenager) by using the mouse or keyboard. I have to use the power button. Any ideas?

Hmm, that support link doesn't like me.
Do you have the discs that came with the computer? If so, put Install Disc 1 into the combo drive and boot up while holding the C key. Does anything show up on the screen? Do you hear the fan running? When running from a CD or DVD, the fan usually runs at a fairly fast pace and should make some noise.
Keep in mind that you have a 1-year hardware warranty with any new or refurbished Mac, so if something has gone wrong, you should be able to have it replaced free of charge, unless the MacBook shows some form of damage.

After upgrade to Lion, iPhone won't charge after Mac goes to sleep

I did a clean install of Lion, and have run Software Update. There are no problems with the system, but I noticed that when I plug the iPhone in to the Mac, it won't charge when the Mac goes to sleep.
The iPhone gives the normal charging tone when it gets plugged in, and if I l press the Home button, it displays the charging screen. If I select Sleep from the Apple menu, the Mac goes to sleep and the screen on the iPhone blinks on as if not plugged in, showing the normal unlock screen. When I wake the Mac, the phone beeps and shows the charging screen.
Is there a setting I can change to get the iPhone to continue charging after the Mac goes to sleep?

This behavior is new in my experience, having been on Snow Leopard. I've always just plugged the iPhone into my keyboard since it is very convenient, and it has always charged overnight, even while the Mac slept. So this is not normal behavior for my system.
My question is, has this changed in Lion?

Gestures quit working after MBP goes to sleep

I have a MBP running the latest software-- 10.8.1. When my laptop goes to sleep and runs screen saver, I am no longer able to do trackpad gestures of any kind after it awakens from sleep. If I reboot or sign out, the gestures return. This does not happen, or didn't before I upgraded to 8.1 when screen saver functions were turned off... It's getting to be a pain. Any suggestions?

This is clearly related to the screen saver, because if I disable screen saver, let my MBP sleep, trackpad gestrues still work when it wakes. Anyone know what is causing this?

I have my AIR plugged into another monitor and after it goes to sleep sometimes it sounds like the system is running and it will not come back up.. I have to restart it. What is this.. Please help

Windows 7 Does Not Respond after it goes to sleep

We are using Windows 7 image distribution through SCCM for our entire organization. Lately, I came across this issue, now becoming more common on all
the systems. The computer won't wake up from sleep by pressing any key, if left unattended for more that 30 Mins (rather after it goes to sleep). A forced Restart is then necessary to return everything to normal. We are using Dell Latitude E series laptops,
as a standard all throughout our organization.
Already tried lot of option like - upgrading the drivers, changing the power plans etc. However, neither of them worked. Any suggestions in this regard
are highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Sam

These type of issues can be solved by performing a startup repair.

MBP goes to sleep and only wakes up for a moment... then sleeps?

My MBP started doing this today. Open the display, it wakes up for 1 second, then it goes to sleep and the screen disappears...? I tried to reboot in safe mode but it does the same thing again. Cant get it to stay on for more than a moment... any tips?

What new features are you mentioning, specifically?

Fans go on at full speed 1 min. after computer goes to sleep

Problem: Fans go to full speed 1 min. after it goes to sleep-mode. The fans will stay on until it wakes up from sleep-mode.
Computer: Apple Power Mac G5 Dual 2.3, OS 10.4.9, 4.5 GB RAM. 2 HD, late 2005 version.
The problem happens every time I put it to sleep, even right after it has been turned on.
I have measured the CPU temp to be as low as 36-40C and it will still turn the fans on high speed when put to sleep.
I have reset the P-RAM and the SMU.
I have installed a fresh version of OS 10.4.9 on second drive, booted from it and it still turn the fans on 1 minute after it goes to sleep.
I have had all the RAM out beside the original RAM. I did an extended Apple Hardware test which passed.
...any ideas ?
-e
5 Macs in total Mac OS X (10.4.9)

After trying all that, it sounds like it's hardware-related--possible logic board--but try this yet.
Do an Open Firmware reset: Hold the CommandOption+OF keys during startup. At the '>' prompt type:
>reset-nvram
Return
>set-defaults
Return
>reset-all
Return
The reason the fans are taking off, is because the OS stops communicating with the logic board.

Why does my iphone 3gs screen go white after it goes "to sleep" for the first time after turning it on?

Why does my iphone 3gs screen go white after it goes "to sleep" for the first time after turning it on?
The screen isn't broken because it works after i turn the device off and back on, but after it goes black once, it's only white again.
But it takes the touches although it's only white, because I can answer my phone when I slide my finger on the bottom of the screen, eventhough there in not the button to see.
This is so weird. I have already done everything I can think of that might help. But I cannot think of anything that might be causing it, because nothing has happened to the device.

Let me know if I should start a new discussion instead of opening a new topic here.
My wife's iPhone is the same vintage as mine 3Gs, but has never had the battery problem. Its affliction instead is that it cannot detect WiFi networks unless it is quite close to the source. Often, when my iPhone not only detects but shows a maximum cells connection with a network, hers cannot detect the network at all. In contrast, her iPhone seems to detect ourcellular carrier just as well as mine does.
Is there any help for this affliction?
