Will Not Sleep In Energy Saver Mode

My iMac G5 20" 1.8Ghz will not sleep when I set it to sleep in the energy saver panel. This just started for no specific reason a few months ago. It will sleep fine when selected from the Apple menu. I have been through the discussions and no one seems to have a good fix for this. I have repaired permissions, reset the PRAM and SMU, and tried all the different configurations in energy saver. I called AppleCare and they seemed not to know anything about this issue. They recommened an archive and reinstall of the operating system. I feel this is kind of drastic for this and I have not yet tried it unless I can see that other people have done it and it works. My computer is in the repair program for the power supply problem and it has an updated power supply since the original actually smoked and Apple replaced it. I was wondering if anyone out there has had this same sleep issue and got it resolved?

Well I finally decided to try and delete an application that I suspected could be a problem not allowing my computer to sleep automatically. That application is LAST FM a music service from the UK which is actually quite good. I suspected it was a problem since it would always launch when I opened iTunes and asked if I wanted to share my iTunes library with the LAST FM group which I did not. I selected I did not want to share in the LAST FM preferences but it still opened anyway when I launched iTunes. I deleted the program and repaired disk permissions and *It Worked*, my computer will now go to sleep with the settings I selected in energy saver. I know there are other people out there with this problem I would first look at this application and others that are probably running in the backround causing your computer not to sleep automatically. I am a firm believer in trying to work up from the easiest solution before taking the drastic approach, such as a system reinstall, or a logic board replacement. I did take Nikki's suggestion seriously. My power supply had been replaced in the repair program and my logic board did not meet the criteria for replacement since it was not exibiting the symptoms that required its replacement such as video and power problems.

  • Computer won't sleep on Energy Saver mode

    All of a sudden, the computer will not sleep while on Energy Saver mode. Any ideas on how to locate the culprit?
    Thanks!

    Hi, seb29. One possible culprit is a fax software setting: if the computer is set up to receive faxes, it either won't sleep at all or won't stay asleep for long. In the Print & Fax pane of System Prefs, click the Faxing tab and make sure "Receive faxes on this computer" is not checked.

  • MacBook Pro 15" Retina Not Sleeping by Energy Saver

    I set both the sleep timer for battery and power adapter to one minute, but the only thing that appears to happen is a dim screen on power or battery.  This is not the same as closing the lid or choosing Apple and sleep.  This is the same thing happens if I just have the timer to only dim the screen after one minute.  I have reset the power manager and booted to safe mode, same thing.  Tried clean install on external hard drive and booted, same problem.  Is this working correctly for anyone on the new MacBook Pro Retina computer?  Since the LED power light is gone on this model, a good way to test sleep is to have the caps lock key on as it has a light on it.

    You might not need a whole new charger.
    It's common for the fuse to blow, and that's in the detachable plug - the bit with the prongs, that goes into the power socket.
    So, you might just need to buy a new plug (about £15) or replace the fuse (a couple of quid and a few minutes fiddling).  You can find tutorials on YouTube.

    And will not start up in safe mode. I have reset PRAM and SMC. Also restarted with no startup items, no luck. Had the problem of waking from sleep and not shutting down in 10.7, updated to 10.8 hoping for fix, no luck. Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    Hi, this log has some similarities to my ipod touch which seems to be not sleeping properly due to wireless issues. Can I check - are you using a wifi connection - if so have you tried ethernet?

  • Does iPad Air have a sleep/energy saver mode?

    Hello~
    I just bought this iPad (first one) and can't find anything about a "sleep" or "battery saver" mode.  I don't want to turn it off, but I don't need it sitting there glowing.  Plus, can't that hurt the screen?
    Thanks!
       Jenny

    OMG.  I feel like an idiot.  I've looked everywhere, but for some reason never opened that menu item.  THANK YOU SOOOOOOOO MUCH!!!!!  You ROCK!!!!

  • Will not sleep after OS 10.9.4 update

    Mac Pro 2013 will not sleep, either manually or through Energy Saver. It sleeps for about 2 seconds, then back on. It worked fine before the update!

    Test after each of the following steps that you haven’t already tried:
    Step 1
    Take all the steps suggested in this support article. That's the starting point for any further effort to solve the problem. Skipping any of those steps may mean that the problem won't be solved. Note that, as stated in the article, the computer will not sleep if Internet Sharing is enabled.
    Step 2
    From the menu bar, select
               ▹ System Preferences ▹ Accessibility ▹ Speakable Items: Off
    Step 3
    Select
               ▹ System Preferences ▹ Bluetooth ▹ Advanced...
    and uncheck both boxes marked
              Open Bluetooth Setup Assistant at startup if...
    Step 4
    Reset the SMC.
    Step 5
    Disconnect all wired peripherals and test. If you use a wired keyboard and/or mouse, use different ones. You must rule out the wired keyboard and mouse as possible causes of the problem.
    Step 6
    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, 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.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in 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.
    Safe mode is much slower to start and run than normal. Don’t launch any applications at first. If sleep still doesn’t work properly, back up all data andreinstall the OS. After that, if you still have the issue, make a “Genius” appointment at an Apple Store to have the machine tested.
    If sleep now works as expected, go on to the next step.
    Step 7
    Still in safe mode, launch the usual set of applications that are running when you have the problem, including your login items, one at a time, testing after each one. Some applications may not work; skip them. You might be able to identify the cause of the problem this way.
    Step 8
    If sleep is still working after you’ve launched all the usual applications, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and test again. If sleep still works, you’re done, at least for the moment.
    If you still have the sleep issue after restarting out of safe mode, post again.

  • IBook will not sleep with clamshell open -

    I have been using this iBook for years with no problems until the system updater updated to 10.4.9 on 4/24/07. Ever since then the iBook will not sleep on its own, I have to shut the clamshell or use the sleep command from the Apple menu.
    I have tried disabling all sharing (file printer internet).
    I have reset the PMU multiple times.
    I have tried several different settings in the energy saver panel.
    I have used "sudo periodic daily weekly monthly."
    I have verified and repaired permissions.
    Here is my console log from today:
    May 11 05:07:31 ibook kernel[0]: System Sleep

    Looking back several days seems the "lookupd" hangs up quite often and the Sound assertion always fails.
    Any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Does this happen when running from the AC adapter or from the battery, or does that not matter?
    Try booting into Safe Mode. This will take quite awhile longer than a normal startup because it does a file check and repair of the hard disk.
    You will see your normal desktop. Once completely started up in Safe Mode, restart normally, and go to Applications > Utilities > Disk Utility. Select the named boot volume in the left sidebar, ("Macintosh HD" unless you've renamed it). Repair permissions on it.
    Recheck the settings in Energy Saver in System Preferences.
    See if a little hard drive maintenance helps.

  • IBook will not sleep

    Since upgrading to Tiger, now when I close my iBook lid, the computer will not sleep. The only way I can get it to sleep is to unplug all peripheral devices (including my power cord) and select sleep. It used to sleep automatically on closing. I've tried adjusting my energy saver choices in System Prefs, unclicking receive faxes in System Prefs, and all other funky suggestions I found online but to no avail-it will still not sleep when I close the lid. Does anyone have more suggestions? I travel a lot and like to store my computer in sleep mode in my computer case, but now it runs instead and wears my battery down!

    Hello,
    Unfortunately, I think your problem is hardware related. From your logic board, running through the right hinge of your display, there is a cable that is connected to your display inverter board, and a device in the display, called a reed switch. This cable contains several wires (6). The reed switch is a device that, when nearby a magnet sets the computer to sleep. The magnet is positioned underneath the keyboard so that when the lid is closed, the computer is set to sleep. If a wire is broken (most likely in the hinge), you may have one of several problems. For example, your sleep function will not work. Or, as in my case, the backlight does not work, so the display goes dark. Only time will tell which cable will break first, so in your case it was the one to the reed switch.
    What you need is a 076-1073 PCEBA Reed Switch with Cable for
    dual USB white iBook. It is an original Apple part and can be purchased from http://www.smalldog.com for $20. However, replacing the cable is somewhat tricky, but not impossible. I did it without previous laptop surgery.
    There is also another discussion thread on the backlight issue. It has some good links.
    This is what I think is the problem.
    Good luck

  • HP Envy Will Not Sleep Automatica​lly

    My computer will sleep fine if I tell it to, but it won't do it automatically. That function is critical to my computer's security.
    I confirm that I've told it to sleep after 1 minute, whether on battery or plugged in. If I tell it to dim the screen after a minute, that works fine, but it will not sleep.
    Below is the Power Efficiency Diagnostics Report (Forum removed HTML) -- note the errors.
    I have unplugged all USB devices. I have stopped the WIndows Media Network Sharing Service. I have disconnected from the network (airplane mode). It still will not sleep.
    Please tell me what else to try.

  • After installing recent java update, computer will not sleep.

    After installing the recent java, daylight savings, and the security update. my computer will not sleep. Does anyone else have this problem? I do have an adaptec usb2 card installed but nothing is plugged into it. Also i don't have any Ipods or external things plugged in. I have had the same setup for the past year with no problems, now it will not sleep. I have also tried repairing the permissions. Please help

    A number of sleep-related issues can appear after incremental Mac OSX updates, including the inability to properly go to sleep, problems waking from sleep, and having your display go to sleep without your Mac going to sleep. The most common culprit is Bluetooth. Try these tips to fix your sleep problems.
    WAKE UP
    In System Preferences>Bluetooth, uncheck Allow Bluetooth Devices To Wake This Computer. If you are using a Bluetooth mouse and keyboard, you'll have to wake your Mac by pressing the power button.
    FILE CORRUPTION
    Your Bluetooth preference file may be corrupt-you'll need to delete it. Turn Bluetooth off, then go to the /Users/user name/Library/Preferences folder. Look for a file called com.apple.Bluetooth.plist and trash it.The OS will create a new preference file when you enable Bluetooth again.
    ENERGY SAVER
    If you have issues with a Mac or display that goes to sleep at inappropriate times, you may have a problem with Energy Saver. Delete the following .plist files and restart:
    -/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.PowerManagement.plist
    -/Users/username/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systemuiserver.plist--
    (username is your name or System Administrators name)
    -/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.AutoWake.plist
    A restart is very important after deleting these plists. After a reboot your Mac will then generate new ones.
    Some, in these forums, have had luck fixing sleep issues downloading the Combo update from this site (yours may be corrupt), not Software Update, disconnect all firewire + USB devices except keyboard + mouse, Repair Permissions, re-install update, Repair Permissions again + try.
    Yours would be the 10.4.8 Combo update. Others reading, download the combo update that applies to you!
    Cheers!

  • MacBook will not sleep automatically since Snow Leopard install

    Hello. I am having a serious issue with my MacBook since upgrading to Mac OS X Snow Leopard. My MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, 2.4 GHz) will not go to sleep automatically anymore. If I select "Sleep" from the Apple menu it will sleep fine. However, it will not sleep according to my Energy Saver preference pane which says sleep at 1 min each (Display and Computer). Another thing to keep in mind is that my display sleeps perfectly normally. However, the computer itself will not sleep.
    Here are the things that I have tried so far:
    - Reinstall 10.6.2 combo updater
    - Remove Energy Saver preferences and entire System Configuration folder
    - Made sure that no hardware or software is interrupting sleep
    - Reset PRAM and SMC
    I am running Mac OS X 10.6.2 with ALL updates and firmware installed.
    Please help me figure this out as it is a serious issue. Thanks.

  • MacBook Pro will not sleep with lid open, but now solved, very odd.

    I bought a 2.4 GHz MBP about a week ago, as soon as I got it home I reinstalled the OS and zero-out the drive. Everything appears to work perfect until I noticed that the MBP will not sleep with the lid open.
    But...
    Close the lid, it sleeps.
    Select sleep from menu, it sleeps.
    Let the battery drain down with lid open, laptop sleeps.
    Whent thru painful troubleshooting process, reseting things, permissions, what is installed, running programs...blah blah blah, nothing no difference.
    So, backup the drive using superduper to external firewire and reinstall all over again, just like i did when i first got home, except I did not let it connect to the internet. I went thru and setup everything then connected and performed each update, one at a time looking for what might hinder the sleep process.
    And the result is a big fat zero.
    Same install process as i did the first time, and same updates as the first time. But now the laptop sleeps perfectly.
    Gotta love computers, so very consistant
    Just my .02 input on this wacky issue.

    Try trashing these 3 .plist preferences and reboot. Reset your Energy Saver preferences.
    HD > Library > Preferences > SystemConfiguration > com.apple.AutoWake.plist & com.apple.PowerManagement.plist
    User > Library > Preferences > com.apple.systemuiserver.plist
    Also, look at your system logs in your Console application and see what is causing the "wake event." It could be hardware-related. Do you have any external devices attached, such as a mouse or hub? I've seen Bluetooth problems with wireless BT mice.

  • MBP 2011, Screen Brightness in Energy Saver mode issue?

    hi,
    got a new 2011 MBP 17', setup dim in energy saver mode & plugged in an external DVI monitor via Thunderbolt port.  energy mode dims & blanks LCD but the external screen does not.  It does however then turn off and lock when display sleep is reached.
    anyone any ideas if this is just a "feature of the new port" that we need to ask apple about or have i missed something?
    FYI,  energy saver pref screen pops up only on 1 screen.  displays pref pops up on both but currently only the MBP LCD screen has a brightness and auto adj settings.  external screen just has resolutions & refresh rate options.
    thanks,
    Simon.

    Nope - on my wife's MB (i.e. 13" MacBook, unibody/late 2008), there's no 'custom setting' or 'Details' when clicking on the menu bar battery icon. There is a shortcut to the Energy Saver preference pane, but no option to control brightness in that preference pane other than the checkbox I mentioned above. You can set timers for display sleep, etc., of course.
    So, what I see on my MBP, what I see on my wife's MB, and what you're seeing on your MBP seem to be the same. If you have access to a MacBook, check again - if you find the setting your thinking of, post a screenshot...

  • Mac Pro will not sleep in Lion

    I know, there are plenty of threads dealing with sleep issues, but they get confused with all sorts of different situations, so I'd like to present my very specific problem with the hope that someone will have a bright idea about what I might try to solve it.
    As the title states I am running a Mac Pro and Lion.  I've been running from my Snow Leopard partition for several months because I couldn't solve this problem, but today I decided to have another go at it. Under Snow Leopard, there is no problem with sleep.  Under Lion,the computer will sleep via power button, menu, or keyboard shortcut, but absolutely refuses to sleep via energy saver settings. I have:
    1. Reset PRAM.
    2. Rest SMU.
    3. Fixed prefs.
    4. Cleared all print queues.
    5. Turned off all sharing.
    6. Trashed SystemConfiguration folder.
    7. Checked Console logs from any strange activities (nothing)
    8. Ran pmset -g (nothing shows preventing sleep)
    I tried PleaseSleep, but I don't like it as a solution because there are too many programs that I would need to exclude (EyeTV, Audio Hijack, HandBrake, etc.), so the machine would remain awake a lot of the time anyway. Is there anything I've missed here?

    Try reinstalling.
    Reinstalling Lion Without the Installer
    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. Alterhatively, 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: Select Reinstall Lion and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You can also re-download the Lion installer by opening the App Store application. Hold down the OPTION key and click on the Purchases icon in the toolbar. You should now see an active Install button to the right of your Lion purchase entry. There are situations in which this will not work. For example, if you are already booted into the Lion you originally purchased with your Apple ID or if an instance of the Lion installer is located anywhere on your computer.

  • Enable Energy Saver mode on a schedule

    Hello- 
    Is there a way to set the Energy Saver mode on a Canon iR-ADV C2220 to turn on and off on a schedule? I'm hoping to set it so it is on Monday through Friday 8am to 6pm. Is this at all possible?
    Solved!
