Turn Off Safe Sleep?

Does anybody know of a utility that can turn off Safe Sleep for a Mac Pro running Leopard?
I have used Leopard Cache Cleaner to do it successfully for my MacBook, but it doesn't seem to keep Safe Sleep turned off for a Mac Pro.

I am not a mind reader so bear with me. In order to answer that, I'd have to know how many and large the swap files are now, what apps you use, and open concurrently, plus how hard and large files you work on etc.
I'd remove the 2 x 512s or whatever and add 4 x 1GB or 4 x 2GB.

It's all in the details. Notice where this thread started, with "safe sleep" and the crux of the issues are low memory AND low disk space.

I will say that 5-6GB is probably fine for light work in Photoshop. And working on larger files you are headed for more than 8GB (10-16).

  • HT201635 Is there any way to turn off Safe Sleep?

    Is there any way to turn this off? Very annoying feature

    You could try a reboot:  Press and hold BOTH the power and home buttons at the SAME time for at least 10 seconds (ignore the red slider to shut down) until the Apple Logo appears, then let go of both buttons and your iPad should restart.  If that doesn't get rid of the volume control box on your screen, it's time to make an appointment with the Genius Bar at your Apple Store, and they can send your iPad off for service.

  • Turning off the sleep indicator in the display release latch.

    Can I turn off the sleep indicator in the display release latch even though it is still sleeping?

    Apple released an update a while back to control the brightness of the sleep indicator, but it was only for certain G5 models. Quick perusal of apple support didn't turn up anything. Coworker swears that the brightness is controlled by the ambient light sensor, but I certainly can't tell the difference in a bright vs dark room...

    Whoever told you that is wrong. The warranty on a repair or replacement iPhone is still 90 days minimum. Quoting from their Service FAQ:
    If defects arise as a result of service, Apple will cover the repair for the remaining term of the iPhone's warranty or 90 days after iPhone service, whichever provides longer coverage for you.
    Call Apple Support and discuss your problem with them. If they agree that it's a hardware problem, they can arrange for mail-in service.

  • I cannot get my add-ons (Just one in appreances) to come back, it says ...All addons have been disabled by safe mode? how do i turn off safe mode?

    Make sure that you do not press the Shift key if you start Firefox.
    It is possible that there is a problem with the file(s) that store the extensions registry.
    Delete the files extensions.* (e.g. extensions.sqlite, extensions.ini, extensions.cache) and compatibility.ini in the Firefox profile folder to reset the extensions registry.

    *https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Unable+to+install+add-ons
    If you see disabled, not compatible, extensions in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions" then click the Tools button at the left side of the Search Bar (or click the "Find Updates" button in older Firefox versions) to do a compatibility check or see if there is a compatibility update available.

  • It's so weird I can't turn off safe search for Google in new version of Firefox?

    I was able to turn off the Google safe search in old version but in new version I can’t. I tried IE and I can turn off safe search. I don’t know what is wrong and it’s so weird. When I go to the page of safe search setting it shows and says (Turn on safesearch to filter sexually explicit content from your search results.) but the safe search is on already. Please somebody say something I am driving out of my mind. And the stupid thing is that I have to use IE for searching and use Firefox for other stuffs.

    The problem is not Firefox - it's Google. They have changed the safesearch options.
    The way round it is to add the word 'nude' or similar to your keywords. Then you'll get taken to an 'are you sure' type option before finally showing you your results.

  • HT201262 turn off safe boot

    can you please tell me how to turn off safe boot

    If it was manually started up into Safe Mode, restart the computer. If it automatically did, restart it with the Option, Command, P, and R keys held down, releasing them after the second chime.

  • Monitor turns off to sleep but computer stays on???

    Monitor turns off to sleep but computer stays on???
    Any clues why? I can only shut-down and it gets annoying because I like to be working in less than a minute after powering up. Any things to look for to help?

    Thanks,
    don't know why it'd matter if I had a warranty or not since the function
    in question is apart of what I'm supposed to be getting w/ cost of computer.
    Time to load the overpriced 1 ton computer into the car and demand they fix it at the apple store. This is absurd since I originally bought this computer for music creating and it's the most unreliable computer EVER as far as stability for music. My audiophile records for like 10 sec. before the sound cuts out, everytime, but of course that's not apple's fault.
    Never buying apple again. This is straw that broke the camels back. Anyone wanna trade a pc for my G5?
    Sorry for the venting but this is where I draw the line!
    Thanks,

  • IMac turns off while sleeping

    My iMac sometimes turns off during sleep mode, I did call apple care and went through utilities and the tech support said that issue should be resolved, but it happen again today. Has anyone else had the same issues? Is this also the start of some bigger issues down the line?
    Thanks,
    BC

    HI BC,
    Check System Preferences/Energy Saver. Click the Schedule button bottom right in that pane and make sure it's not set to turn off at a certain time.
    According to this article, http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1237 Make sure your software is up to date.

  • 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..

  • Turn off deep sleep / hibernation

    Hi all,
    I do not want to let my MBP go to deep sleep mode every time I close its lid or send it to sleep by one of the other ways. Before the MBP I had a PowerBook G4 which went to "normal" sleep mode in 2-3 seconds. The MBP takes 20-30(!) seconds and I really don't need deep sleep.
    Is there any way to turn this feature off in order to get a faster sleep mode like my PBG4 had?
    Thanks everyone
    Björn

    Your MBP is not going into deep sleep. Normal sleep operation on the Intel laptops when you close the lid is:
    1. Write current state to the hibernation disk file.
    2. Enter "normal" sleep. Computer is not shut off and memory state is maintained (this is Safe Sleep.) Wake-up will be very quick.
    In Deep Sleep the following occurs:
    1. Current state is written to the hibernation disk file.
    2. Computer shuts off. Memory state is not preserved. Upon wake-up there will be a delay during which the operating system loads the saved state from the hibernation disk file. Usually a progress bar appears on the screen as the saved state is loaded into RAM.
    From what you describe your computer is set for normal sleep, not Deep sleep.

  • 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.

  • Airport Turns Off After Sleep

    After I sleep my Mac, sometimes Airport is turned off and I can't get on the Web. If I go to network preferences and view the airport connection, I can't turn airport on again. If I lock the connection to prevent further changes, once Airport turns itself off the lock is unlocked. Rebooting will turn Airport on and reestablish the connection. How can I prevent/circumvent this problem without having to reboot?
    Someone suggested that another network might be interfering and I should change the channel, but I don't know how to do this... Explanation or other ideas?

    I wish I could help, but I have the same problem. When my G5 Tower goes to sleep, I lose Airport connection. When it wakes, Airport is on but will not reconnect. Attempts to connect result in errors (trying again doesn't help). It's not the Airport Extreme, since that works fine with other computers. It's not this specific network (I have two parallel accounts on the Airport Extreme - one public, one private) and it won't connect at all. The only thing that works is a complete reboot. I've tried deleting preferences, resetting the network connection (ie wiping it out, re-establishing the network with password etc) and nothing happens. Is the card dying?

  • 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.
