Within moments of my reply to the post, amazingly I recevied this update notice:

Transmit 4.1.9 fixes an issue with the Transmit Disk menu, another issue with Keychain Access troubles under Mac OS X 10.6, and updates Growl yet again.

Well, I have been running 4.1.9 for a while. Still had the freezes. I will try to install Transmit on my test intall and see what happens.

I was running 4.1.9. Filed a bug report w/ Panic.

We've got another thread where we've come to pretty much the same conclusion, disabling Transmit Disk seems to allevate the problem: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4148731

I don't have Transmit Disk installed but I do use transmit. So thats rather odd.

I also had a similar issue with wifi afer awaking. Mbp 17" 2009.

I tried all the regular things. Resettin PRAM and SMC etc. All with no succes.

At the end I found this thread which pointed me to the solution that seems to work for now.

Give it a try. Good luck

Well let us know tomorrow if it's still working.

Has anyone solved this issue yet? I did a clean install on MBP 13" and it will randomly freeze after waking from sleep. How could apple have missed this huge bug?

Well, after all the testing, it ended up being the Panic Transmit menu bar icon for me as well. For that matter, Transmit is making my machine hang when I use it.

I have tweeted them about this... Please do the same so we can help them continue to improve their awesome product! @panic

I have not solved my problem yet - I no longer have any startup items running. I was using transmit but that is now disabled. My problem went from beach balling in which I had to restart to not remembering my preferred network. That started after I deleted all my networks and recreated one. So I have to tell it each time on waking what network to join. Hope apple fixes this soon. I never should have upgraded!

I've been in touch with Pacic about this and they are looking into things I believe.

They suggested I try the following:

- back up my favorites FAVORITES > EXPORT

- Quit Transmit

- back up ~/Library/Preferences/com.panic.Transmit.plist file

- trash the plist file and restart transmit (you'll need to reenter your license key)

- see if that solves the problem. If so try to double click the favorites backup file to reimport favorites (thats the only way to reimport it, you cant use Favorites>Export. See if the problem occurs again.

I skiped the last step after restarting Transmit and reimported my favorites immediately. I had the issue again right away. I'll try not importing favorites and see if that does anything.

Worth mentioning that I do NOT have the Transmit Menu Bar Icon up top. Maybe I'll add it and then remove it. This *****.

Nice to see Panic jumping on this. We should get Gruber on this too. 🙂 Panic seems to be tight with him and I would guess he uses Transmit, and he has been beta teting ML since February. FWIW, I went back to Lion until there is a more definative and clear cause and solution. I am in the middle of the month's magazine production and I just don't have the time to mess with this now. I do feel that we have narrowed this down quite a bit though, and it looks like mostly a menu bar issue, and Transmit might be the a root cause, even if the menu bar is not being used by it. Fingers crossed.

Mij earlier post was a bit short. But the issues I had seem to be gone and my mac is awaking smootly now.

By me it wasn't caused by anything I had installed or with my network settings/keychain.

Somehow during the upgrade something went wrong with the powermanagement settings (plist). After the upgrade I noticed that the battery icon in the menybar was gone. When my Mac woke up and wouldn't connect and gave me the "beachball" the clock was still pointing at the time my mac went to deep sleep.

Resetting al my powermanagement settings to the default by using the button in the Energy Saver prefpane was all it took for me. Since then all my issues are gone.

Hope this helps.

Hey Guys,

Cabel from Panic here! I've seen a similar hang on my MacBook Air happen two times, but, obviously, it's very hard to debug and dig in when your computer is frozen. 😀 (Also, it rarely happens for me!)

Since we haven't touched anything related to the Transmit Disk Menu in a long time, and this only started with 10.8, I can only assume this is a bug in 10.8, but I'd love to get as much information as possible so Apple can fix it (or we can work around it).

One quick question:

I only saw it when my computer was sleeping and plugged in. Can anyone confirm this anecdotally? Or have people seen this happen when not plugged in?

And if any of you guys can get this often and easily every time you sleep, please e-mail me, cabel at panic. Thanks!

Super weird,

Cabel

Oh, and one last thing!

If you can reproduce this easily, and you use the Transmit Disk Menu…

And you can somehow get to a working Terminal during the hang…

Please type:

sample TransmitMenu

Into your Terminal and e-mail me the results. I will be extemely grateful. 😍

Best,

Cabel

My 2 cents on this: I have been seeing this regularly on my late 2011 MBP, also when plugged in. I have also been using Transmit and the Disk Menu.

Have disabled the menu item recently and it seems to be fine now. Will continue testing.
