Sep 12, 2013 12:17 AM in response to chocobananaby Jborget,I'm having the same problem. I've taken it to the genius bar three times and no one knows what I'm talking about. I have AppleCare. Going to call tomorrow and reference these forums. Thanks!

Confirmed.
Contrary to my last posting, allegedly "standby" does apply to my MacBookPro (mid-2012, no Retina).
Apple Support suggested that I should enable "standby" as this is the standard setting (as "shipped by Apple").
So I ran "sudo pmset -a standby 1" and now my MacBook enters into a "standby mode" (which feels like something in between hibernation and sleep mode) both when on battery and when connected to charger. -
Oct 24, 2013 12:34 PM in response to chocobananaby koreanricequeen,Update:
I was having the hibernation issue on my Jan 2013 MBP running Mountain Lion. I used the terminal command "sudo pmset -a autopoweroffdelay 86400" to correct the issue.
I just updated to Maverick yesterday and this morning when I opened my computer, it was in hibernation. Assuming the autopoweroffdelay was reset, I have again set it to 86400 minutes. I'll update if this fix doesn't work.
In short--if you update to Maverick after using one of the fixes listed here, you may need to redo the fix.

Oct 24, 2013 7:26 PM in response to koreanricequeenby egsl,Thanks for your update!
Looks like the hibernation issue is not addressed in the latest update. We have to fix it ourselves again.
Please also share if you encounter any other problems with the new mavericks update.
Any lag as compared to mountain lion? Any other issues?

Oct 24, 2013 9:43 PM in response to chocobananaby Monsignor Paolo,According
man pmset
"autopoweroff - Where supported, enabled per default as an implementation of Lot 6 to the European Energy-related Products Directive."
So, it's just a European Commission requirement, Apple don't want to irritate the greens, therefore it silently resets hidden power settings after OS upgrade.
It's interesting,
"autopoweroffdelay - delay before entering autopoweroff mode. (Value = integer, in minutes)"
is it a mistake about minutes?

Oct 25, 2013 8:18 PM in response to egslby koreanricequeen,So my computer hasn't gone into hibernation since I re entered the fix, post maverick update. Glad to see the same easy fix resolved this nuissance.
I haven't noticed any other issues while running Maverick. Seems like business as usual.

Oct 26, 2013 9:01 AM in response to chocobananaby hockeymagnet,I'm just revisiting this thread. After the Mavericks update i've re set the autopoweroff delay to 86400 (24 hours) BUT I'm still trying o figure out how to get my MBP (mid 2012 non retina - HDD) to go into hibernate when sleeping on battery. I'd like it to hibernate if sleeping on battery for more than say 12 hours. I've looked at a lot of info on this but can't figure this command out.
Thanks

Oct 26, 2013 9:50 AM in response to hockeymagnetby emailsfh,hockeymagnet, Look back a few pages at some of my posts (pg. 11). You need to set the standby to 1 in battery, and standbydelay to whatever 12 hours is. Apparently that is the same thing as hibernate in battery mode. To adjust just the battery mode, you use sudo pmset -b (for example "sudo pmset -b standby 1"). Try that and let us know if it does what you want. I haven't tested.

Oct 26, 2013 6:22 PM in response to hockeymagnetby Monsignor Paolo,86400 is now 60 days, not 24 hours, see "man pmset".
autopoweroffdelay - delay before entering autopoweroff mode. (Value = integer, in minutes)
You should set:
sudo pmset -b autopoweroffdelay 660
to hibernate it on battery after 12 hours.

I have the impression that "standby" does not apply to my MacBook Pro(mid-2012, no Retina). According to Apple at http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4392 , "standby" is a feature only available to newer MacBooks Pro with Retina display.
That's incorrect. I have standby enabled on mine and it works fine... both in ML and Mav now.

Well, if it truly has been changed to minutes, they're idiots because they left the autopoweroffdelay to the old 14400 setting which was like 7 hours or something.

It's visible in my Mabook Pro 13 non-retina with HDD.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4392 tells me, that my Mac haven't.
Let's try to use it!

You are correct.
As I wrote a couple of postings above, I can confirm that "standby" does apply to MacBookPro (mid-2012, no Retina).
