Yosemite Sleep Mode ain't really sleepy...
I upgraded to Mac OS X 10.10.1 (Yosemite) on my late 2009 21.5" iMac about a week ago and I have a slight problem.
With Mountain Lion, when I put my computer in sleep mode (alt + cmd + eject or Apple > Sleep), my two monitors would go black and a little hiss would let me know the hard drive had stopped. Now, with Yosemite, the monitors go black but the hard drive keep spining. It's not really loud, but my computer is sitting on my desk about 3 feet away from my bed and the low frequency sound can become really annoying.
In the settings, I tried to check the box "Put the hard disk(s) to sleep when possible" but it doesn't change a thing. To really put the HDD to sleep, I need to shut down my iMac. I hate to do so because the booting process is long and the Apple booting chime is loud when I need to turn my Mac on early (and trying not to wake up my girlfriend).
Is there a way to get the same sleep mode than on Mountain Lion ?
Thanks a lot and happy holidays !
I also performed more tests and experienced more failure and I noticed that this problem happen quite more frequently when I use my external display (Philips 274E). I can't be sure that it happens only with an external display because it happens randomly, but in the most of times I have my display connected.

My iphone 4s will not find my 6500A 710n-z when in powersave/sleep mode. I really don't want to disable the powersave mode...it already has latests firmware installed. Suggestions? It will print if I wake up the printer by hitting the power button to wake it manually.
I had this problem for about 3 months Now, but today I think I fix it, by clicking on SETTINGS and then DO NOT DISTURB and switching MANUAL from green to White, now I receive my calls, try this it worked for me..:)

Lenovo s10 3t sleeping mode not working???
I just received my lenovo ideapad 2 days ago and upgraded to ultimate.. my problem is , even before i upgraded it and it was on windows starter, whenever i put on sleeping or hibernate mode, it actually SHUTS DOWN? after putting/thinking it was on sleeping mode, i tried to turn it on again, hoping that it will go back to where it was before., then i realized, i have to go on the safe mode or start normally coz it said it didn't properly shuts down. BUT i didn't even shut it down.. i only put it on sleeping mode.. why is it so? anyone have the same prob? or am i pressing the wrong button (the power button) in order to turn it back on from the sleeping mode.. it really bugs me that it always kinda restarting when it is supposed to be asleep!!! i changed the power setting to having the sleep mode longer than an hour and tested it within few minutes by putting on the sleep mode and try to put it back on, it still goes into computer not properly shut down ---> safe mode or start normally window thingy.. what is wrong here???

IMac 2009 (21 inch) making hard drive noises during sleep mode - normal??
Hi there guys,
I have an iMac 21 inch (2009) , 3ghz C2D, 4GB Ram, 1TB hard drive (the hard drive was upgraded straight thru apple, when i bought it i paid extra for a 1tb hard drive, its not a DIY hard drive upgrade)
aniways, I recently noticed that during sleep mode, occasionally (not all the time) I can hear some faint clicking / hard drive noise, which is really weird because i put the imac in sleep mode and it really shouldnt be doing that no?
My 13 inch macbook pro 2010 never does this in sleep mode, its always dead silent
Im just wondering if this hard drive accessing / clicking noise during sleep mode is normal in imacs??Im just wondering if this hard drive accessing / clicking noise during sleep mode is normal in imacs?
No it should not be doing anything but sleeping. The SMC controls sleep, try resetting it.
Reset the SMC
• Shut down the computer.
• Detach the computer's power cord.
• Press and hold the power button for 5 seconds.
• Release the power button.
• Reattach the computers power cable.
• Turn on the computer.

Hi,
Since I did the Yosemite 'upgrade' last week I have been having problems with my MacBook Pro that never happened before. The most frustrating problems involve my keyboard which doesn't light up (checked my settings and they are correct) and the top row of function keys don't do anything so I can't adjust the volume, brightness, etc. Then if my screen goes into sleep mode, when I wake it back up I have to sign back in twice - I never had to sign in at all after sleep mode before.
I'm finding that in order to get it working properly I am having to completely shut down and start up again but when the keyboard problems are happening I can't get anything on the apple dropdown to work either (i.e. shut down, restart, etc) so I can only shut down by pressing and holding the on/off button.
I've never had problems with my Macbook before and feel like Apple have completely ruined it in one update! I've had a look through other posts on here but can't find anybody else having these problems so I would be really grateful if anyone could help me and offer me some advice on how to sort it out.
Thanks!Reset PRAM. http://support.apple.com/kb/PH18761

Macbook pro runs really slow after sleep mode
My MBP ( MacBook Pro (13-inch, medio 2012), 2,5 GHz Intel Core i5, 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3, Intel HD Graphics 4000 1024 MB), runs very slow after sleep mode. I notice that when I wake it up, my memory usage is nearly 8 GB. After a restart it is back no a normal level, between 2 and 5 GB depending on how many programs I am running. Any ideas what causes this? My IOS is Yosemite 10.10.2
Kind regardsHi Japib
Thanks for your reply. Here is my report:

After upgrading to Yosemite under sleep mode for few hrs battery is getting discharged fully.
System information
Mac book Pro 13 inch Retina Early 2013
Processor - 2.6 GHz Intel Core i5
Memory - 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Graphics - Intel HD Graphics 4000 1024 MB
Storage capacity - 500 GB
OSX - 10.10
Ever since I have upgraded from Mavericks to Yosemite - battery consumption has increased.
and MOST CRUCIAL ISSUE IS - under sleep mode battery is getting drained like anything ...
for eg - I had 70% charge last night and it got completely drained when I got up in the morning.
there was no charge left in the battery after 6 hrs under sleep mode and it is happening for last 5 days every night...
I have already tried various things as troubleshooting....
Apple hardware test.
SMC
emptying caches etc....
observing activity monitor and finding any program taking more energy etc... (nothing is found)..
L3 Cache: 3 MB
Memory: 8 GUPDATE: Resolved!
Disabled all login items but problem persisted on normal boot. Resetting SMC and PRAM had no effect. After booting into Safe Boot, problem did not exist. Looked in console logs and saw this right as problem started to occur:
10/20/14 6:49:07.004 PM com.apple.xpc.launchd[1]: (com.gspy.MO3V2Daemon[93967]) Could not find and/or execute program specified by service: 2: No such file or directory: /Library/MO3V2/MO3V2Daemon.app/Contents/MacOS/MO3V2Daemon
This pertains to the Steelseries WoW MMO gaming mouse. Ran the uninstall.command from Applications for this mouse software and rebooted. Fixed.
Light on MagSafe connector is orange, battery shows as charging, fan is not running constantly. I can't begin to understand how this would effect the battery charging functions but, after uninstalling this, the problem was resolved. Hope this will help someone else. -
Sleep mode crashed - Will not launch in regular or safe mode (Yosemite)
I put Yosemite to sleep last night, and woke up to a frozen screen the next day.
I hard rebooted the computer and the loading bar freezes at about 50%. I have tried multiple reboots and from time to time, the computer will make it to the desktop and the pinwheel but no icons or menu bar.
When booting in safe mode after a long time I also get to the desktop with the pinwheel and no icons or menu bars.
Very frustrating! 2012 Macbook pro i7 2.7.
Anyone have this - and or find a solution.
Thanks!Freezing on sleep wake up is a known concern. 2012 models seem to be the most affected. I have a late 2012 Mac Mini i5 and since upgrading to OS x Yosemite I've had to disable sleep mode. I have an open case with Apple about the concern and recommend you open one as well - as one user said an Apple tech stated it was a low priority concern. It's a very HIGH PRIORITY concern for me. My thoughts.

Why iMac shuts off when in sleep mode? Using latest System (Yosemite)
Can anyone tell me why my iMac 27", running on the latest system (Yosemite), all of a sudden started shutting off when put in the sleep mode?
Try resetting the SMC.
Additionally, look at the log files around the time the system shut down.
You might also take it in for testing/diagnosis.

Mac Mini i7 After Yosemite update, sleep mode affecting internet connection
Hi,
I got a Mac Mini i7 for July 2014 everything was awesome. On Monday, October 27th 2014, I notice the port where my Mac Mini is connected, the light is amber colour. When this happens there's no internet connection for the Mac Mini and affects the router has it slows the connection. After doing the following:
1. Turn off Modem for 20mins (hard reset)
2. Turn off Router for 20mins (hard reset)-Router Netgear WNDR4000
3. Set Service Order
4. Change Ethernet Cable
5. Renew the DHCP
I found out the when the Mac Mini goes to sleep mode thats when connections drops. I test where i set it to 1min and voila the port is now amber colour.
I don't want to keep the Mac Mini i7 in "never" status has it decrease life.
Put hard disk to sleep when possible and Wake for network access are checked.
Of course before the update, everything was working fine. Any ideas is appreciated.
Thanks,

Why iPad mini battery drain so quickly in sleep mode? about 35% in 7 days sleep mode (100% to 65%). Compare with my iPad 2, 7 days in sleep mode, only 2%! (100 - 98%). is it because differences in iOS? iPad mini iOS 6.0.1, iPad 2 iOS 4.3.3. I'm really frustating because of this. thanks for help
What kind of ipad mini / ipad 2 you got?
AFAIK,
1. ipads drain battery with 3g/4g on (regardless on wifi or not) 1% overnight.. so for 7 days .. 65 is about correct.
2. Are your ipads setup to receive remote push notification? (more push = more battery drain.. as the screen lit up)
3. With iOS 6 vs iOS 4 .. there are more stuff running in the background and more toggles.. that could also contribute to battery drain. -
After installing Yosemite, cannot login after wake from sleep mode
After upgrading to Yosemite this morning, I've had the problem that after the computer goes into sleep mode, I cannot log back in to use the computer because I can't enter my user password. The screen looks fine after I press a key on the keyboard or move the mouse (I see the users and where I would type my password), but mouse clicks do not allow me to activate the password box (however, I do see the mouse pointer and can move it), and any buttons pressed on the keyboard have no effect. If I shut the computer down, I can login without problem. Any thoughts on how to resolve this? I'd hate to have to turn the computer off every time I step away for 10 minutes...

Permissions and this check show no errors, the only error sleep mode failure. Boot up is very slow as well as wake up when possible is slow.

Display is all snow coming out of Sleep mode
Just replaced a 17" LCD (using the mini-DVI-to-VGA) with a new Acer 24" widescreen LCD (using mini-DVI-to-DVI). After a little fiddling with the profile, I've got a pretty nice picture. Problem: coming out of sleep mode, the screen is all snow. If I pop the monitor off and on, everything comes back normal. I did NOT have this problem with the older 17". This is more of an annoyance than a major issue, since just a couple of hits of the on-off button correct it. But it ain't right, so I'm hoping I can fix it for good. It happens whether the Mini goes to sleep by itself or if I put it to sleep. I don't know if it's a DVI issue, monitor issue, or something goofy with the Mini's video.
I did a search and found similar issues, but not exactly the same, and saw no suggested resolutions that fixed them. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks ...
EdThe 9400M device driver on our Macs appears to be really bad.
My buddy tried to put a Sharp LCD projector on the external port on his Mac laptop, which also had a Nvidia 9400M, and it was not usable. The picture kept coming and going. The projector screen would go blank, then a picture would come up, go blank, and then the picture would come back again, over and over. Being an experienced Mac, PC, and Linux user, I attempted to help him get it working using the display properties page in the System Preferences. Nothing helped.
I'm having similar troubles with the second port on my 9400M on my new Mac mini.
The primary display is fine. I have a 24" Acer LCD on the miniport to DVI converter for my second display, and it works most of the time, however the picture goes to snow fairly often, and blacks out sometimes, too. It usually comes back. Occasionally, I have to power cycle the LCD to get the picture back.
Seeing similar problems with two different DVI display devices, when these devices work fine on our PCs, seems to point the problem at the Mac Nvidia display driver. -
Yoga 2 Pro Draining Battery Fast in Sleep Mode
I have a new Yoga 2 Pro with i7 processor. It works great and normal battery life is about 4-5 hours. But with a fully charged battery, i can close the lid at night triggering sleep mode, and wake up to an almost dead battery.
Why is this happening? It's really dissapointing and I'm going to return it if I can't find a fix. I'm on the latest BIOS with all current updates. I am not using Hibernate mode.
Closing the lid shoud not cause battery to continue to drain at normal usage rates.
I'm hoping it's the WINDOWS 8 software but I've tried all the settings I can find.the OP said battery was draining overnight because y2p was not going into sleep mode. then op changed some settings and, as i understand it, now his y2p does not drain battery overnight because he pushes power button and it goes into hibernate mode before closing lid.
I would like to raise the issue of the difference between hibernate and sleep mode. I too find that if i put my y2p (and my mbp-bootcamp) into hibernate mode then my battery does not drain overnight. however, both my laptops drain the battery overnight in sleep mode... anyone have clear understanding of this? i've look at many articles on the web, but haven't found any that specifically indicate how fast sleep mode should drain batteries. I think my gf's mba-OSx also drains overnight in sleep mode and OSx doesn't even have a hibernate option (correct me if i'm wrong)...
