Q: El Capitan Frozen After Sleep

I am finding a similar problem.  After the MBP goes to sleep for more than an hour when I wake it I am finding it has rebooted.  I am not seeing any error messages.

It went to sleep last night and when I tried to wake it this morning it didn't.  I had to use the power button and had a "Sleep Wake Failure" error message that the system had to reboot.

El Capitan seem pretty buggy so far.  Sleep/wake is a definite major issue in my book.  I've had daily unscheduled reboots since upgrading.

Same problem here. Sleeping for a short period of time works fine, but if my mac sleeps for a longer period of time it freezes and I have to reboot using the power button.

      Reset SMC. Choose the method for “On Mac notebooks with non-removable battery”.

I have the same problem on my MacBook Air and its always making me to forcefully restart, thereby losing all my work

Reseting SMC did not solve the issue for me. I am still waking from sleep with a Frozen trackpad and keyboard. I still receive all notifications at lock screen but can not login until I do a physical shut down and restart.

2012 Macbook pro retina here and same problem!

Same problem. Lift lid after long(ish) sleep - screen wakes, notifications etc. come through but the keyboard and trackpad are frozen.

Tried connecting two different USB keyboards, neither of these work. So it appears to be a wider hardware error.

Force restart "works".

I have a similar issue in a thread in the El Capitan forum. This breaks MacOS.

Mouse and Touchpad not clicking after sleep - hard restart needed

Please support the thread.

Same thing here, regretting the update.

I have the exact problem as "Weirdbeardmt". Seriously how could Apple miss this.

Do you use VMWare Fusion?

I do actually. Do you think this bug might be related to that?

Other stuff I've suggested points to it. The test is to shut down all your VMs (possibly kill Fusion altogether) before you let the machine sleep for a while. See if it persists. That's what I'm trying at present.. so far it seems to comply.
