Hello all,
I have been using Apple Computers for quite a long time now and this is the first time I have run into a problem and have no idea how to solve it. The back story is that I purchased this MBP about a month ago while I was in the US for a meeting.
I didn't have any problems with it while I was in the US, but when I got back to Dubai, the computer would often refuse to go to sleep properly. If I close the lid it locks up, but the light on the front remains on. If I try to manually put it to sleep through the Apple Menu the front light comes on. In both instances it does not pulse. It just remains bright. Of course at first I didn't notice this, so the battery would just completely drain.
When I finally figured out what was happening, I did quite a lot of research online to see what the issue was. iStat Pro was the first thing I ran into that could be causing the problem. So I removed it, but the problem persisted. I also removed any software I had that I thought could have been the culprit.
At this point I am down to only software that should be on the computer, the only major installations being Office, iWork, and Aperture.
Has anyone had a similar problem? If so can you help me in a way to fix this. I am really interested in trying to get this resolved.
Thanks
