Upgraded to Catalina several hours ago. iMac has gone to "sleep" 4 times and each time failed to "wake". Had to do "hard reboot". Anyone else?
Same here. After update to Catalina my Mac will not wake from sleep following inactivity or forced sleep. Ran first aid with no problems detected, and energy saver settings are set to default. Not good.
MB Pro Retina Early 2013.
MB PRO 2018 just installed CATALINA, reset NVRAM, SMC, still no luck with wake after sleep without having to to do a hard reset. major problem!
Glad that worked, you're welcome!
I’ve tried both of these suggestions with no luck, what now?
I reset the NVRAM and it now appears to be working.
Thanks!!
I tried both suggestions on this thread. Neither worked. Any other options people've used?
Tried both suggestions and neither worked for me either.
Try safe mode and have your Mac go to sleep a few ways then restart, this worked for me after trying the steps above.

Safe mode trick didn't work either for me.
Tried safe mode and put my Mac to sleep but then it freezes unresponsive so can't restart.
Glad to hear I'm not the only one having this issue. Installed Catalina and haven't been able to wake my iMac after it's been left for a while. Hope they sort this out quickly.
Same here, macbook pro mid 2014. NVRAM reset didn't help neither safe mode this is so bad!
Has anyone wiped and did a fresh install of Catalina and have it work? That's my next step, if that doesnt work I'm going back to Mojave. Ugh, this is so frustrating!
I'm going to give it a go and if it doesn't work, fresh install of mojave. There is a thread on reddit as well and they are reporting that a wipe and fresh install of catalina has totally fixed it.
they should have emailed ya a chat transcript after the support session.. help up! we need details! lol
