Why does my computer keep freezing after waking from "sleeping"?
I'm running Lion (10.7.2) and frequently, not everytime, but often, the computer will freeze about 1-2 min after I've woken it from sleep – there are usually 1-2 applications open and then I can work for about a couple minutes and then it freezes and the only way to resolve it is to power it off w/ the power button and then restart.
I've got a late 2008 15" MacBook Pro, 2.4Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo, 4GB RAM – there is very little on the hard drive, but that seems irrelevant here anyway.
Thanks for any tips/help!

After upgrading to Tiger, freeze after waking from sleep on PM G4
My experience with Tiger in the past week as not been great. The reason I upgraded was to get iSync 2.1, so that my Moto E815 phone could be sync'd with my OSX AddresBook and iCal. This wasn't possible with the latest version of Panther.
So, I upgraded to Tiger 10.4.3, and now my G4 freezes immediately after waking from sleep. After pressing the 'return' key to wake the computer, the G4 sends a signal to wake the monitor, but on top of the screen saver is a black text box which states there was a problem I must press (and hold) the power button to restart the Mac. It's written in four languages.
When I installed Tiger, I used the 'archive' option.
My computer is a bit of a FrankenMac: Originally a G4/350 with AGP, upgraded with a Sonnet 1GHz G4 processor card, 1.12GB RAM, a 160GB HDD, an nVidia GeForce3 64MB AGP video card, Samsung DVD/CR-RW drive (Patchburn3) and a Belkin PCI card with 2 additional Firewire ports and 3 additional USB 2.0 ports. When I performed the upgrade, I had the keyboard and mouse plugged into the case USB 1.1 ports, a Logitech Notebook Pro USB camera plugged into the other case USB 1.1 port, and a D-Link BT120 USB->BT adapter plugged into one of the three USB 2.0 ports on the Belkin PCI card.
When I check the Console logs after the rebooting, I see a kernal panic in the panic.log. Apple has received this a number of times from me in the past week as I keep sending them 'talkback' logs after the fact.
I also see an error in the system.log which may reveal what is going on:

I suspect the problem where the USB devices are started, because I had that Bluetooth adapter plugged in at the time of the upgrade. I'm speaking of the lines in the log which start with 'USBF'. The keyboard and mouse are useless when the black screen shows up after waking from sleep.
I've tried some of the suggestions I've found for the iBook 'wake from sleep' postings on macfixit.com and here - resetting NVRAM and removing a few of the .plist files. This didn't seem to help.
I would greatly appreciate help in resolving this issue. I've been a Mac owner since the original Macintosh (it's still in my house) and am frustrated that this is the first problem I've encountered.
Thanks in advance for your help.Thanks. In fact I had bought a new keyboard and mouse (Macally) and sure enough, if I unplug it before it reboots, the CD drive door stays closed and I can boot from a CD! I did not try any of the other stuff. Is there any way to get it to stop this? Why does a USB peripheral cause the CD to eject anyway? Would love to know!

Freeze after waking from sleep mode on MBP retina
After waking from sleep mode my MBP retina freezes for 3-5 seconds. Mouse and touchpad don't work. I wonder if it's mountain lion problem or hardware problem. Anyone faced this?
Just got a brand new model and OS X 10.8.2 (12C3012) and face the same issue, almost everytime it sleeps for too long. This is not a 3rd type SDD, this is a standard Apple SSD. I turned off the BT, I removed the almost every option from the battery saver mode. The current test is to disable the power nap - I will let you all know the result in a few hours.

Freeze after waking from sleep
hi, it's been happening only in the past 3 days.
my mac pro is less than a month old.
3 gig ram, dual 2.66mhz processor, 120G hd with more of a third free disk space.
this's what happens: if the computer is in sleep mode, and if after few hours i wake it back up, it freezes.
for the first 10 seconds, the computer apparently works fine, but after that the curson stops responding, as well as all apps.
i can't quit applications, or esc...
all i can do is to powerboot it again.
i've run disk utility and verified disk and repaired permissions.
as it is now all is in check.
can you please let me know what i can do?
on my other systems i used to run Cocktail, but i haven't installed it or run on this intel machine yet, not to screw things up.
can anyone tell me what i should do for this freeze issue, and what's the best system management utility for intel machines?
thanks in advance
millyCocktail is not a system management utility, but rather a troubleshooting only utility. Freezes can happen waking from sleep often if there is a third party USB device connected or a PCI adapter to USB that is not familiar with Apple's Energy Saver low power mode. Before proceeding with this experiment, it is important to backup your data*:
http://www.macmaps.com/backup.html
Dismount (if a volume), and disconnect all third party USB devices and see if it freezes. If it does, make sure the hard disk is less than 85% full (an arbitrary number most have found to be safe for Mac OS X) using my http://www.macmaps.com/diskfull.html FAQ as a guide. And if it still freezes waking from sleep, repair the directory:
http://www.macmaps.com/directoryfaq.html
Cocktail, and other cache cleaning utilities should be avoided unless an obvious cache problem exists. You can use Cocktail also to delete files no other programs will delete, but only after backing up your data, to ensure you don't delete the wrong file.

Why does my macbook keep crashing after login and sleep mode?
For some time I've experienced my MacBook restart shortly after turning it on or awakening it from sleep. Today it did it repeatedly several times.
Anyone knows why?

Reinstalling Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing the Drive
Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless. -
Wifi/System Preferences Freezes After Waking From Sleep Mode.
Every since I installed Mountain Lion, I've had the issue of my MacBook Pro freezing up while it checks for Wifi after waking up from sleep mode. I have to constantly restart my computer. I'm wondering if Apple is aware of this happening on other computers and not just mine.
Also, my laptop is considerably slower since installing the OS update, especially when I turn on my computer.
- Rog!!!!!!!!!!!So far only this has worked for me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Go to System Preferences -> Energy Saver -> and UNcheck the box that says "Put hard disk(s) to sleep when possible on BOTH the Battery and Power Adaptor tabs.
I had this issue when I first installed Mountion Lion on my Aluminum MB 2008. Thought it was 10.8 so I down graded to 10.7 Lion, issue still happened. But after I applied this setting the issue seemed to go away. Before this I also deleted the old wifi settings in Network Utilities and added the Wifi device, ssid, and wep key again (not using WPA2). I will continue testing through the night and will update once I can determine the issue is gone.
Hopefully this works for others too. -
MacBook Pro late 2013 does not show login window after waking from sleep
MacBook Pro late 2013 does not always prompt for login, but opens directly to desktop, even though security settings are setup to prompt for password after 5 minutes. Up to now, this only has happened on battery, machine goes to sleep or lid is closed, 10 minutes pass, lid is opened and desktop is shown instead of lock screen. Console shows, that the machine was actually sleeping (10 min no log entries) and also does not show any error in regards to login window.
This behaviour occurs randomly and I could not track down any root cause/behaviour, yet. Sometimes everything behaves as it should.
Any ideas?
Thanks
marcusCount me in, I have the same issue, and from what I read here, it looks like a Yosemite/SSD related issue ?
I'm not 100% sure if it started when I put a SSD in my old iMac 2009 (as a fusion drive) or if that's after that when I upgraded to Yosemite...
I did disable auto poweroff like suggested in another thread : Mac freeze during the night sleep.
sudo pmset -a autopoweroff 0
We'll see if it helps.
It happens toughly a couple of times a week. -
2009 Quad MP freezes after waking from sleep
Hey again.
I've read numerous reports about the sleep/waking problem but mine seems to be different. I even created a new main admin account to see if some of my preferences (I migrated my user accounts from an iMac over to the new MP) and still having the same issues.
If I let the system go to sleep it will on its own but when I wake it up the keyboard and mouse don't do anything. I even unplugged the mouse/keyboard and plugged them back in and still nothing. I have to hold the power button down to shutdown. Upon restarting everything is fine again.
Now if I put the system to sleep manually it will sleep and wake perfectly!! I know I can work around this by not letting it go to sleep on it's own but why would be wake from sleep one way but not the other?
Any help welcome.
PS. I have a OWC 1TB FW800 hooked up, Wacom tablet/pen, keyboard and that is it. I have the hard drives set to 'sleep', and only have istat menu bar running. I've tried it with that off and no programs running and still have the same results.but after I bought this MP it's been headache after headache. (Sleep issues, monitor issues..)
Are you still under warranty? Can you have the machine replaced? I would try to do that... No reason for bad experiences from a brand new machine. No one deserves that and you may just have gotten a machine by nature that is a bit buggy. Granted the dust is still settling about these Macs and how they play out in the real world. But consistent problems like yours, are worth fixing. Getting the Mac replaced would be ideal.
JM is probably right about the driver, I forgot that too. One removes everything except the kernel of trouble in the first place. It's a shot anyway. There could be more going on. -
Programs freeze after waking from sleep mode
For some reason if I put my MBP into sleep mode (10.6.3), any programs I try to start up will freeze (I would to force quit since nothing opens). Any programs that were open prior to going into sleep mode working fine, unless quit it and then try to restart the program same problem (so if firefox open before sleep placed my laptop in sleep mode then I wake the laptop, firefox works fine. Now if I were to quit firefox after my laptop was turned on from sleep mode then I quit firefox and try to reopen it, then firefox icon just bounces up and down and nothing happens and it freeze and I have to force quit). The only way is for me restart the laptop, but even then its a temp fix.
Try using Disk Utility to do a Disk Repair, as shown in this link, while booted up on your install disk.
You could have some directory corruption. Let us know what errors Disk Utility reports and if DU was able to repair them. Disk Utility's Disk Repair is not perfect and may not find or repair all directory issues. A stronger utility may be required to finish the job.
After that Repair Permissions.
No need to report Permissions errors....we all get them.

Macbook freezing after waking from sleep
My 4 GB RAM macbook freezes for 30 seconds after I wake it from sleep mode. Sometimes it is unresponsive and sometimes the beachball comes up. I have 200 gigs of free space and no login items. The bluetooth wake is also turned off. What is the problem?
I have noticed similar behaviour. I think it depends on the network activity being carried out when I closed the lid, and maybe it has to wait for something to time out. I don't really know, I'm just guessing.
I have noticed that when it happens, I have to close the lid and watch the light on the front. This will be solidly lit. When it starts "breathing" I can open my MacBook again and it will work ok.

I have 10.6.8 on my iMAC. I have been shutting down my iMAC partly because I often get freezes a few seconds after the mac wakes. The freezes also occur at random. There is seldom any way to shut down the MAC except by pulling the power cord, though very rarely I am able to finally achieve a normal shutdown. I have tried fixing permissions as well starting in Safe Mode, and while these seemed to help at first, they no longer seem to have any affect.
I thought that maybe I got some kind of virus/trojan/etc., but from what I have read here that very likely is not the case.
I have also read here that the issue could be "hardware." Does this mean things like my printer or external speaker, or external hardrive? or does it mean the hardware of the computer itself? I have read about a "Hardware Test." Does this "Apple Hardware Test" have a benefit here in figuring out the problem?
Does anyone have any suggestions? I certainly can't keep 'pulling the plug,' and I know now from these discussions that shutting down (vs. sleep) on a regular basis is not best either for the imac. (I am loathe to upgrade to LION until I get this problem resolved, though, interestingly, I seem to see that a number of LION folks have the same or similar problem.)FussGus,
Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
What periherals, especially USB ones, do you have attached to your Mac? Does the problem persist with everything other than the Apple keyboard and mouse disconnected?
Does the problem persist if you Start Up in Safe Mode? If so, check what items are in /Library/StartupItems and /Library/PreferencePanes.
As generic advice for sleep-related issues:
For a Mac OS X with sleep problems (file names and locations are for 10.4.x):
-- trash /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.PowerManagement.plist
-- trash /Users/[username]/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systemuiserver.plist
-- reboot while resetting PRAM (restaqrt while holding down command-option-p-r until you hear three sets of chimes, then release the keys)
While not directly related, since your wakes before freezing, also refer to Computer Will Not Wake From Sleep -
Why does my macbook Pro pinwheel after reopening from sleep?
I have a 2.4 i5 MBP with 8GB Ram running 10.6.7. It is attached to my work exchange server with authenicates my login and network.
My problem is that often, but not always, when i reopen the lid of my MBP awaking it from an overnight sleep, programs are unresponsive and even basic finder/OS functions are not available, like force quit or system preferences. The pinwheel usually starts when I click the wifi icon in the top bar. The only way out of this is to hard reset the machine. Today I had to hard reset it twice because even after a reboot the machine was unresponsive for a long period of time. (20 minutes maybe).
Could this be an exchange problem? I never have trouble connecting to the exchange while the computer is awake, and i am connected to the ethernet and wifi.
Help! If I go to the IT guy he'll just want to wipe my mahcine rather than troubleshoot.Shutdown the machine nightly instead of using sleep.
Try running all of OnyX cleaning and maintenance features and rebooting.
http://www.titanium.free.fr/
Also use the Verify Preferences (check show only corrupted plist) and make a not of which ones are bad, seek and move these to the desktop and reboot, they will automatically rebuild.
If everythign is fine, then move the bad plists to the Trash and empty. -
System Freeze after Waking from Sleep
Hi,
I have seen a few other posts out there with similar issues however mine is a little different. I have been noticing a few oddities since updating to Mac OS X.5, and finally X.5.1. The first challenge I noticed was that my machine does not go to sleep all of the time now, and it might be because I have a HD plugged in at night for Time Machine, but I am not sure because I seem to remember it doing this before.
Secondly I have noticed that when it would fall asleep, and then I would wake it up it would take some time before I gained control of the track pad and the keyboard. I chalked it up to the OS doing what it needed to do to get the machine ready. The times seemed to vary and it didn't happen all of the time.
However this last time I opened the machine and it gave me the desktop, and an iCal alert but the Finder was the fore most application. I waited but never gained control of the input devices and was forced to restart the machine.
I was wondering if anyone else had seen this or has any ideas of what might help.
Thanks
PatrickA PMU reset might help.
Sounds like you should try using Disk Utility to do a Disk Repair, as shown in this link, while booted up on your install disk also.
You could have some directory corruption. Let us know what errors Disk Utility reports and if DU was able to repair them.

HT4623 Why does my ipad3 keep freezing up?
Why does my ipad3 keep freezing up after the latest version was installed?
It might or your system may be low on RAM. Open Activity Monitor (Applications - Utilities - Activity Monitor) while operating the computer normally. Then click the System Memory tab, under normal usage a general rule is if they system has 500MB or more or FREE RAM it's OK, if it's below that yup you could use a RAM upgrade. It will look similar to:
While you are in Activity Monitor also check the %CPU column and look to see if you have any processes using large amounts of the CPU. -
Why does my computer keep disconnecting from my wifi?
Why does my computer keep disconnecting from my wifi?
Some users with various Wi-Fi problems have reported that they were given the following instructions by Apple Support, sometimes with success. After completing the procedure, you'll have to recreate all your settings in the Networkpreference pane. Make sure you know how to do that before you begin. Taking screenshots of the preference pane may be helpful.
Step 1
Back up all data.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Reveal
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item named "SystemConfiguration" selected. Move the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator password. Reboot and recreate the network settings.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combinationcommand-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
Step 2
Reset the System Management Controller.
Step 3
Reset the PRAM.
