sleep

My 1.8 single G5 won't go to full sleep mode. The monitor and Ethernet go down, but the fans keep spinning. The sleep light stays on. I suspect other things don't power down (maybe disks). After doing archive reinstall this problem is fixed, but eventually comes back again after SW...

Simple as that. Computer will sleep, and screen will turn off when it does, but my screen wont sleep on its own.

I have a 15" pb 867 MHz running 10.2. It froze (no cursor movement, no response to opt-cmd-esc or cmd-tab) so I powered down by holding the power button, then tried to start up again. It made several beeps and started flashing the sleep-indicator led in a pause-four(?) flashes-pause pattern...

I have an older 2000-era iMac running 10.2.8. I just added a Seagate 200GB external drive with a firewire interface. I've put two partitions on it. The drive itself seems to function normally. Here is the problem scenario: 1. logoff normally with external drive mounted 2. Allow the...

I am having a problem that I haven't heard of yet. My 1ghz dual G4 (mirrordoor) is going into sleep mode every chance it gets. I barely had enough time after I woke it back up to check my energy saver prefs, and it says it is set for "never". It's never done this before. Sometimes it won't...

My PB crashes on wake from sleep. It was fine when I run Jaguar. When I updated to Panther, that is when this started to happen. This also happen in Tiger. This is a random thing, but happens quite often. I have tried resseting PMU, PRam, I did repair permissiona and run FSCK and nothing has...

I've just added a LaCie firewire external hard drive to our xserve to make a backup of data. It seems fine and auto-mounts as /Volumes/LACIE. I have no graphics card or remote desktop, so in an SSH session, I then tried tar'ing our /Users folder to the external disc with gzip included: tar...

Is it possible to write a hook for Tiger to execute some mumbo jumbo when it goes to sleep and when it wakes up again? Basically, I have vpn issues when I shut the lid on my powerbook and I'd like to automate some applescripts I have. Any help would be appreciated.

I haven't been able to figure this one out: I have a Titanium PB G4, 867mhz, 512MB RAM. Currently running 10.4.0. I know that this problem never existed prior to the transtion from Panther to Tiger, but I am not sure that it has ALWAYS happened since the upgrade to Tiger... I use a...

Often, after log-out, or simply after closing powerbook, if I plug-in or unplug the power, the computer wakes up. I must re-open then close (or select "sleep") again before moving (taking computer home/to work). Has anybody experienced this problem? It's not a disastrous problem -- simply...

Hello, Here's the skinny: When my iMac G5 goes to sleep and is awakened, the airport connection is fine -I don't even need to manually select it. However, when I Manually sleep the machine, (apple/sleep), and wake the machine I have *no* connection at all. In fact, I can't even see my...
