MacBook :: Keeps Awaking Itself Up When Put To Sleep
Nov 27, 2010For info, I have a 2006 Macbook running Snow Leopard. Whenever I put my Macbook to sleep, it keeps waking itself up. I tried the ethernet solution, resetting PRAM, even disabling the Bluetooth device. They've been short fixes but end up coming back a while later. For the record, Bluetooth is listed as "unavailable." To add, I don't have anything plugged in barring my charger. Also, this showed on my console, the bolded parts are interesting:

MacBook Pro :: Awaking From Sleep When Closed
May 3, 2012Looking through some previous threads, I couldn't seem to find a set of circumstances that exactly mirrored what I'm encountering. I have reset the SMC and disabled the "awake with lid opening" function in terminal to no avail. Hoping to find any insight. So this is the typical path leading up to the symptom.Â
End of the day. Shut down all of my programs save for Finder. Eject all drives. Unplug the computer and put it to sleep. (The symptom occurs whether I put the system to sleep through the OS or simply close the lid.)Â
I put the computer in my briefcase and drive home. Occasionally, I'll open up my briefcase to find the computer is incredibly hot and running while closed and enclosed in said briefcase. It's been a minor annoyance up to this point, but yesterday I found it literally hot to the touch and with a completely discharged battery when I went to grab it yesterday. Â

Hardware :: Bluetooth Mice Awaking From Sleep Mode?
Nov 28, 2009I am looking to get a bluetooth mouse soon. Im not the biggest fan of the apple mouse because I personally don't like how it fits to my hand. I like logitech mice alot, their nano ones are nice. My only question is that theres some issues with bluetooth mice awaking from sleep mode. The reason why I'd prefer bluetooth is so I can always have the two usb ports open on my macbook. I have a usb hub but I don't want to take it anywhere.

PowerPC :: G4 That Goes To Sleep Every 10 Seconds
Jan 25, 2007My roomate as a powerbook g4 1.5ghz, it had been running 10.4.8. The computer will go into sleep mode randomly about every 10-15 seconds. Doesn't matter what program he's using. If he leaves the comp off for a few hours, it wont do it for a while and he can use it. Only thing we've found online is that people had that problem when they had faulty trackpads/trackpad sensors. But we don't think that is the issue we weren't getting an error message as they were in the console when it would occur. We called a local mac shop and they said it'd be 100 bucks to diagnose the problem, and probably it sounded like he would need a new logic board for another 700 + Labour.
A friend at school had the Apple Service Diagnostics 2.5.8 boot disk. He told us to give it a shot rather than paying the 100 bucks to get it "checked out" as it would most likely tell us what, if anything was wrong. We ran it, all hardware and software tests passed w/o any errors. We even tried doing a full format and reinstall of OS X 10.4.1, it got through the install procedure, and it seemed to be working ok for about 30 minutes, then suddenly the problem started again! So I that makes me think its not software related. So far two software "tests" and one full ASD hardware test got us nowhere. He's tried a lot of stuff he found online, but nothing has worked. Such as resetting all the various rams and sensors and PMU.

Jun 21, 2012Several times my MBA (mid 2011) woke up by itself after setting it to sleep within a few seconds. Following appeared in the console:
kernel: Wake reason: EHC2kernel: The USB device HubDevice (Port 1 of Hub at 0xfa000000) may have caused a wake by issuing a remote wakeup (2)kernel: The USB device Apple Internal Keyboard / Trackpad (Port 2 of Hub at 0xfa100000) may have caused a wake by issuing a remote wakeup (3)
I did a few resets (SMC etc.) and reinstalled Mac OS the first time. It didn't work. Then I did this all again and reinstalled Mac OS a second time. Both times I wiped the SSD. Now my MBA doesn't wake up again by itself. The Apple Hardware Test also was completed with no issues. But the above posted logs still show up when a wake it up by hitting the keyboard. Are these logs failure warnings or normal entries?

Dec 9, 2014Since I've upgraded from MacOSX 10.9 to Yosemite, my MacBook Pro wakes from sleep within 30 seconds. I've tried solutions suggested on Google, but they have had no effect (and usually are about MacBook's waking up after 2 hours).Â

OS X :: Wake Up Seconds After Putting It To Sleep - Another Snow Leopard Bug?
Nov 17, 2009I had a problem over the weekend where my iMac would wake up seconds after putting it to sleep, and also rebooting after shutting it down. The full story can be seen on this thread here: [URL] At first I thought it was caused by an installation of iMagneto, but it eventually becomes clear that it was caused by what I presume was a corrupted folder (Application Support).
I've not been able to find out any more info about this bug outside of the Apple support forums so I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem. The original thread in the Apple forums dates back to early September so it looks like the 10.6.1 and 10.6.2 updates didn't address it. Is it a very rare bug I wonder?
OS X :: Folders And Webpages Go Back To The First Page After 3 Seconds?
Nov 17, 2008My Mac has this weird disease that it returns to the first screen by itself after I've opened a couple of windows no mather what software or program I use.
It has nothing to do with my keyboard or mouse, because this problem occurs even when I've pulled everything out of the USB socket.
For example, when I start a movie with VLC Media player it starts over after 3 seconds and it goed to the start of the movie.
Anybody who knows the solution, I just can't find anything about this issue.
MacBook Pro :: Black Screen With Cursor For 5-10 Seconds When Trying To Wake Immediately After Display Sleep
Jun 23, 2014I've noticed that when my rMBP (late 2013, Mavericks) turns off the display automatically while on battery (as configured via Energy Saver) and I try to wake it immediately, I get a black screen with the cursor, rather than my password/unlock screen. It remains a black screen, with the cursor moveable, for 5-10 seconds or so, and then the password/unlock screen will appear as usual.Â
This does not happen if:I don't try to wake the display/computer immediately after automatic display sleep (e.g., I wait 5-10 seconds and it's fine)I turn off the display using a hot corner and immediately wake the displayI put the computer to sleep by closing the lid and immediately wake it by opening the lidI select Sleep from the System/Apple menu and immediately wake it by pressing a key or clicking on the trackpadÂ
Why automatic display sleep is causing this temporary black screen? I currently get around it by setting the time for automatic display sleep while on battery to 10 minutes instead of the default 3 minutes to minimize the chances of needing to immediately wake the screen. I'd like to keep it at 3 minutes if possible to maximize energy savings, but the temporary black screen is really annoying if I didn't really want display sleep and consequently have to wake immediately.

View 5 Replies View RelatedSoftware :: System Not Exiting Sleep Mode / Kicks Back Into Sleep Mode
Dec 29, 2009As of last night, my MBP started acting very strangely. After entering my username and password, it would enter the desktop for a short period of time and then kick back into sleep mode; the screen would turn back to black. Sometimes it will let me stay on the desktop for a long time and other times it will hardly let me stay on the desktop. I called apple support and they had me start the computer in safe mode; even then it occasionally kicks me out.
The tech guy said that it was a "strange software issue" and not a hardware issue. I thought it was a hard drive issue; my hard drive makes an odd sound when it unlocks (a grinding sound), but it has been doing that for quite some time with no issues. I tried to reset the SMC and it didn't do anything.
How should I remedy this problem? Is this a hard drive issue? Hard drive failure? Has the grinding sound finally caught up with me? I am running OS X; not leopard or snow leopard. I know I need to upgrade, but this shouldn't be happening.

IMac :: Goes Right Back To Sleep After Wake - Up
Aug 13, 2010I have an older iMac (MA589LL) that I recently upgraded to 4GB and Snow Leopard which is running beautifully. I do have an issue with it though, and it's been occurring for a while: Whenever the machine goes to sleep and I wake it up, the monitor turns on just fine but after about 5 seconds it goes back to sleep. I have to repeat this about 3 times and then it is fine. It's an annoying issue but not a deal breaker as I can just turn it off. I searched for sleep issues/turn off issues and have not found anything.
NOTE: Issue occurred before the upgrades. I've also tried resetting the PRAM and NVRAM. I have also used different keyboards/mouses.
Mac Mini :: Display Won't Come Back From Sleep?
Aug 20, 2010About a year ago, I convinced my mom to replace her old Flat Screen iMac G4 for a Mac Mini. We decided to buy a 23" HANNSpree LCD display, connected via Mini DisplayPort to VGA. Since then, my mom has often experienced the same issue: It is often unresponsive to waking from sleep, and sometimes it takes *ages* to come back to life, especially after the computer has fallen asleep for a long time (overnight).Sometimes, though I know the mini is awake, the display says that it cannot detect a signal coming from the mini.

Intel Mac :: Certain Webpages Won't Load For 60 Seconds?
Apr 22, 2012I was tempted to put this in the 'Safari' section, but after a little more trial I thought it went deeper than that. The issue is, for about two weeks now, i'll be surfing the web and then head to one of my commonly visited websites (namely Wikipedia, Google, Huffington Post, and this website) and though I'm fully connected to the internet, the pages won't load and i get the "Server Not Found" noitce.Â
I don't, however, have this problem with ALL webpages when this is happening to the others. Gmail, Facebook, Mediaite, etc. all have no issue and they work just fine. Â
Primarily I use Google Chrome as my browser. So the first thing i did was clear the cache to see if it would help, but nothing changed. So i opened both Safari and Firefox and they both suffer the same problem. After about 60 seconds the issue goes away and all things are normal again. About 10 to 15 minutes later, if I'm still surfing the web, the problem may creep back up again. I can't say for sure but I've noticed that this typically happens when I first try to go to those pages after a few hours of not using the net.Â
When this happens, I've also tried loading these pages on my iPhone and iPad during the 60 seconds and have encountered the same problem. Using a Wireless internet connection thru a cable modem.
