Macbook Sleep Wake failure in EFI (Failure code:: 0xffffffff 0x0000001f)

I have two macbook's, one model end 2018 and one model begin 2019.

They both suffer from the same problem with a fresh installation (also reset NVRAM, PRAM, SMC).


The crash reason: Sleep Wake failure in EFI

Failure code:: 0xffffffff 0x0000001f


I already contacted Senior Support for this and have a running case for both.


If you run into the same problem, please let me know here.

To trace down the problem more info of different devices can be useful.


If I get feedback that solves it, I'll post it here.

I had the same problem, and finally found a very odd solution. In my case, after a lot of frustrating work, I traced the problem to an old USB hub I was using on my new mac. Once I disconnected the old USB hub, the problem immediately stopped. In my case, it was surprising and very lucky to discover that the problem seemed to be associated with an attached electronic component. Hope this helps you.

First my fingerprint reader stopped reading my fingerprint. I couldn't open my macbook with my fingerprint anymore. Then other problem started. When I close the screen, the macbook can not awake anymore when I open the screen. I have to press Shift+Control+Option+open button for 10 seconds, then when I press the open button the computer awakes!!!


So silly! Whenever I close the screen to put my macbook to my bag, I have to do this everytime!!!

Same here. It is crashing when coming out of sleep and sometimes even when it is in sleep. Since 10.15.1

I was just on support with Apple and the person had me reset my NVRAM--we'll see if that does it. I have it set to go to sleep after a minute at the moment, so its been awakened successfully many times since, but this was an intermittent problem before (once every few days and for no particular reason), so I'm not convinced it it solved. I've kept the case ID and will get back in touch with them if it does it again.

I'm also having this issue, with a late 2013 13" MacBook Pro (Dual-Core i5, 8GB RAM, 256GB SSD). I didn't even notice it until my computer was making an odd noise, opened it up to it booted in Windows when I had closed it in MacOS, restarted it and that's the error code that showed up.

I'm having same issue with a 2016 MacBook Pro 13, running macOS Catalina.

Because of this, my display is not working. The screen is totally blank and black.

Mine have wake issue also, relatively new machine, made appointment with Genius bar next week.


Doing final trial and continue observation, notice a very strange coincident. I remove all data on SSD and reinstall fresh Catalina, did not install any other apps and not setting up any email account. Let it sleep flat on desk, a bit surprise no problem waking up even after long nap the last few days. Earlier today put the Mac on a tilted stand, around 35-40 degree, put to sleep, unable to wake. I've always put it on this stand previously and continue having problem waking up, only the last few days left it flat on desk as I'm preparing to send it back to Apple, and put my old MBP on the stand instead. Old MBP running Sierra, no wake issue.


Can't have anything to do with sleep orientation, right?

Aug 26, 2020 10:12 AM in response to JCVMoreira

I have had this problem for years, going back to when MacOS High Sierra came out and they made the switch to APFS. At the time I was still under AppleCare and tried repeatedly to get it fixed. No one has any clue, just the same tired advice over and over again..."Did you try a fresh install?"..."Did you reset the NVRAM?"


My favorite part of the MacBook Air was that I could just close the lid and the battery lasted seemingly forever, until I needed to use the computer. Now I open my backpack and find the battery dead because for some reason the computer wakes itself when its closed and runs the fan at max speed until it dies. When it doesn't do this, I open the screen and there's a bright flash of light and then the computer restarts, then another bright flash, then it restarts again. This has completely ruined using this as a portable, there when you need it solution.


I'm posting my log as well in case it helps anyone, but at this point I think I'm done with Apple. Shrugging and waiting for me to buy a new $2,000 laptop isn't customer service, especially when this is a huge, widespread issues affecting thousand of customers.



Nov 23, 2020 4:17 AM in response to Mesha97

I've had this issue for a while on a Late 2013, MacBook Pro, Retina after I upgraded the SSD from 128g to 256g.

Since upgrading to Big Sur I have not seen the issue. Like others, the issue occurred when the MacBook went to sleep. I've had my MacBook asleep for as long as 2 days with out an issue.


Hope it's finally fixed, otherwise I have another expensive door stop with a permanent screen saver.

So I’ve been on with Apple Support a few times now trying new things. Seeing if it occurs with WiFi and bluetooth off - which it

does and seeing if it occurred after setting up a new user account - which it did. I was asked to video record the boot issue and send it on to Apple which I have. Just awaiting further instructions from them and again I will update once I hear back 🙌🏻

Initially my MacBook boot issues would happen when battery was less than around 50% but recently it happened at 91% too 🤦🏼

Mar 15, 2021 1:07 PM in response to KurtHoyle

It happened to me again this morning, and it happened this morning on my wife's 2020 13" M1 MacBook Pro. The only thing I did overnight was unplug my iPad Pro (USB-C), use it, and then plug it back in (to use as an extra monitor). I'd wonder if that had something to do with it, but my wife doesn't have anything plugged into her MacBook Pro.


I have both computers set to be able to boot from an external drive - I wonder if that combined with the security fix in 11.2.3 is causing an issue? I'll try to change it, but it's a hassle booting into Recovery mode - plus that shouldn't be causing Sleep Wake issues.
