OS X :: 10.5.6 New Macbook Won't Auto Sleep?
Feb 2, 2009I've actually got two new Macbooks with the same problem running 10.5.6. That is, neither will go into auto sleep. I've tried killing all running processes, etc. and nothing seems to work. I'm wondering if anyone else is experiencing this problem. I think I'm going back to 10.5.5 until some of these bugs get sorted out.

Feb 13, 2009I have my iMac scheduled to shut down everyday at 12:30 am. Sometimes it will shut down and sometimes it won't. I've only had my iMac for about a month, but am I missing something here? Why won't it shut down automatically.
I had it scheduled to shut down at 12:30am, and I was already asleep. I woke up about 3am to get a glass of water and I checked my iMac and I was able to wake it up. What am I doing wrong, why won't it auto shut down?

MacBook Pro :: Shut Down Instead Of Going To Sleep?
Jun 16, 2012I had some weird issue with my MBP last night. I let it running when I went to sleep so it could finish a download for me. The battery was fully charged, and I've done it in the past, and MBP would just go to stand by after it finished the download. But this time when I woke up it was turned off completey. I thought it was the battery, so I connected it to power to charge it again, and all of a sudden my MBP turned back on without me pushing any buttons or so. I than had to sign on again and when I checked the battery it wasn't empty, so MBP should have gone to sleep instead of shutting down.
After I signed on I was told that date and time had been set back to the original settings and I had troubles connecting to the internet. When it finally worked again after about 45 minutes I was asked to allow configd and mDNSresponder access, that also never happened before...
Is there anyone who could explain to me what happened or what might have caused this?

MacBook Pro :: Reset SMC And PRAM - Still No Ability To Auto Sleep
Aug 22, 2010Today I noticed that my mid 2010 MBP is not automatically sleeping. I ran Apple's extended hardware test, along with TechTools Pro 5 from AppleCare disk. Both passed. Reset the SMC and PRAM. I'm still not able to auto sleep. Is there a way to see what exactly is causing my computer to not automatically sleep? Console messages or something?

MacBook Pro :: 17 I5 - Battery Calibration - Shut Off Rather Than Going Into Sleep?
Jun 23, 2010I just bought MBP 17 i5 model a couple days ago from a local apple store(Keystone Mall). and I calibrated my battery yesterday. The thing is I know MBP should sleep when the battery is really low(running off reserve) then when the battery drains out, MBP should do the "safesleep" thing where it stores the current state of the machine so that upon turning the machine back on by supplying the power to it or after charging, MBP returns to the stored state.
But, when i was calibrating my battery, I did get the low battery warning(reserve battery blah blah) but then it drained down to 0 then the screen flickered(literally made a flicking sound) and went dead. When I got up in the morning I plug the adapter on and turned the MBP on and MBP just freshly boots.. rather than restoring the previous state..................

Oct 3, 2009My macbook has developed a problem where when the lid is shut and the power is connected it wakes up from sleep and then goes back to sleep and repeats this process every 30-60 seconds.
What's weird is it doesn't wake from sleep and get stuck in this loop when�the lid is open and the power is connected and I select sleep from the Apple menu�when the lid is shut and the power is NOT connected and is running from the battery
I recently updated my mac to Snow Leopard and put in a new HDD and since doing so the problem has been occurring.
MacBook Air :: Closing The Lid To Sleep Makes Air Panic And Shut Down?
Apr 24, 2010I have a first gen MBA 1.6, and recently (like two days ago) every time I close the lid it shuts down. It doesn't happen all the time, but it does happen more times than it doesn't. Booting it up after, a window tells me a kernel problem has occurred.
Sorry, no real knowledge of the underpinnings of how software works - so if any of you have ever experienced this, or have some tips or diagnoses, I will certainly be thankful for it.
MacBook Pro :: Double Tap Restarting After Sleep Mode / Restart / Shut Down
Oct 23, 2010so i've been having an issue with the double tap to hi-light any text i wish to copy. Such things as double tapping the URL bar to hi-light the whole url so i can just retype w/e site i want to go to. Every time i restart or turn off or my mbp goes to sleep and i reopen it, the double tap function resets. So i'm forced to go to the system preferences > trackpad> "double-click speed" to slowest in order to get my double tap to hi-light anything again. Is there something wrong with my mbp? Or is there a way i can save the settings when i put the double-click speed to slow so that it wont reset every time my mbp needs to be woken up or restarted?
View 2 Replies View RelatedMacBook :: Laptop Holds Charge Only In Sleep Mode / Shut Down
Jul 3, 2010I tried SMC resets and everything. The Macbook takes a charge and charges normally when it is asleep, or off. It will charge to the max (96%). Battery has 349h load cycles. Charges when asleep or off. As soon as I power on the laptop or wake it up, it will stop charging. Battery holds the normal charge I usually get (3ish hours). Tried a few pram and smc zaps. Battery charger is a Hong Kong knockoff. Battery inside is genuine. 2008 Aluminum Macbook. Cleaned magsafe and port with q-tip and still to no avail.
When plugged in, it will run *off the battery* and the charger will show a green light and not trickle charge the battery. It will drain the battery, and then when it is drained it will run off the power. Check the screen shot. I am thinking that the charger is the culprit. Because it holds a charge when I let it charge while it is off. It will charge up just fine, in the two hours or whatever it takes to charge itself up. Battery usage is normal when it is running off the battery.

Jul 27, 2006my friend owns a MacBook Pro and he has been having troubles with his new computer. He loves it all in all, but finds it frustrating that he can't turn the screen off without putting the computer to sleep. He says it's cause he wants his Adium away message to stay up for his friends, but can't find a way to do so, everyone I've asked has no clue.
Has Apple made a way to do this? Or is it this, as of now, cannot be done?
IMac :: (2007) Aluminum Won't Auto Sleep?
Jan 31, 2009I have an aluminum Intel (2007) iMac and I have had it for two years now. I love my Mac and would never go back to a PC now, BUT (you knew that was coming) I have recently (unfortunately I don't know exactly when) developed a problem in that my iMac will not auto sleep. The screensaver will kick in OK, but it will not go to sleep on its own. I can put it to sleep from the menu manually, but not by the setting in System Preferences. I have reset the PRAM, and the SMC and neither of those changes have worked. Have any of you had this issue and solved it?

Nov 14, 2008Could someone please explain to me why my computer is shutting down in sleep-mode. In addition, when it happens, the fan goes into hyperblow, which doesn't make sense because it would not be operating if the system were completely shut down. It acts like it is shut down but won't respond or wake up, etc. I re-loaded my system software per the Mac Store Genius' advice, but that didn't work. Is it possible that my power supply is going?

Hardware :: Disabling Hard Drive Auto Sleep
Jun 4, 2010Is there a way to disable hard drives from automatically going to sleep mode (spinning down). Energy saver (System preferences) already has "put hard disk(s) to sleep whenever possible) turned off, so this must be done from the drive itself. The drives in question are a 3.5" ATA drive from Western Digital (WD5000AAKB) and a 2.5" Seagate SATA drive (Disk utility doesn't tell me which drive model it is, so I have to physically open the enclosure to find out). They're both placed inside external Firewire 800/USB enclosures.

Apr 8, 2010I have an Intel Imac G5 2.66 gHz 2 core duo running 10.6.3. I am unable to get it shut down or sleep. Choosing either results in the display blacking out, the fans run for about 1 second and then everything come back on as if nothing has happened. I've reset the Pram and Vram, disconnected all USB and Firewire devices, tried it with and without file sharing and Airport operating. A 'hard' shutdown with the power button works fine. I have checked for any firmware updates but mine is fine. This happened once before and clearing out some files from deleted apps cured the problem but it's back now.
